He was deeply impressed by Yi Jianlian, and one more thing was that in the 09 Asian Championships, Haddadi of the Iranian team made a "please shoot" action to Yi Jianlian.

It was a very provocative move, and Yi Jianlian ultimately failed to hit that shot.

In his previous life, that scene became an indelible shame board for Yi Jianlian.

Tang Tian knows that a shot is not a reflection of Yi Jianlian's strength, but it is a microcosm of Yi Jianlian's career.

Compared with technology and confrontation, self-confidence is the key factor that restricts him from going further.

Like basketball IQ, it's not a tangible thing, but it's just as important.

The game on the field continued, Yi Jianlian's performance was very bad, he hesitated, and the more he played, the more chaotic he became.

In the end, the Vipers lost 101-128.

Yi Jianlian only scored 9 points and 12 rebounds on 4-of-13 shooting, playing his worst game after dating.

At the end of the game, Yi Jianlian turned his head to look at the audience, and after seeing that Tang Tian and Cole had left, his expression became more and more depressed.

Back in the locker room, his teammates had gone to shower, and he was still sitting there in a daze.

"Easy, the coach called you, office." In a daze, a teammate came over and patted him on the shoulder.

He nodded, took a deep breath, and headed towards the coach's office.

Finch had always cared for him, and at this time he called him over, probably to say something to comfort him.

Thinking he knocked on the door and went in.

After entering, to his surprise, there were not only Finch inside, but also Tang Tian and Cole.

They're not gone yet!

Looking at Yi Jianlian, who was stunned, Finch turned his head to Tang Tian and said, "You talk first, then I'll go out first." ”

After speaking, he reached out and patted Yi Jianlian's shoulder, and then walked out of the office.

The door closed, and the three of them were left in the office.

"You've disappointed me." Without foreshadowing, Tang Tian said directly to Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian looked stunned.

Cole on the side was also stunned for a moment, he knew from Tang Tian's previous expression that he was unhappy tonight, but he didn't expect it to be so direct.

"Where's your confidence in playing at the Olympics? Now I can't shoot two baskets and don't even dare to shoot? You're just wasting the opportunity I've given me? Tang Tian said with an unhappy face.

"I ......" Yi Jianlian didn't know how to defend for a while.

"Isn't it just shooting? What if you can't make it? Will it lose your money, or will it lose your meat? ”

Tang Tian questioned for a while, but Yi Jianlian didn't speak, and lowered his head.

"Or did that Finch guy say you can't shoot and take you off? If he says that, call him right now! I don't even give face! Tang Tian was even more angry when he saw this.

"No, Coach, Coach Finch takes good care of me, it's my own problem." Yi Jianlian finally looked up and replied.

"And that's how you reciprocated him? Or are you going to repay me like this in the future? Tang Tian's anger did not subside.

"Ahem, Tang, Yi is just nervous and out of shape, he should adjust back." Cole spoke up on the sidelines.

"That's right."

Tang Tian's tone suddenly slowed down.

Cole breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't understand why Tang Tian, who was also Chinese, was so harsh on Yi Jianlian.

"You only have one chance, and if you don't even have the confidence to shoot, I won't let you play in the NBA, don't doubt my determination." However, his next words were poured directly on Yi Jianlian like cold water.

"That's all I have to say, you can do the rest for yourself, Steve, let's go." After Tang Tian finished speaking, he opened the door directly and walked out.

Cole was stunned for a moment, glanced at Yi Jianlian, stopped talking, and finally sighed and followed.

Leaving the arena, seeing that Tang Tian was still unhappy, Cole seemed to understand.

It's not that Tang Tian is harsh, but he values it in his heart.

In other words, I don't care about you, it doesn't matter how bad you are, you must know that Tang Tian is the head coach of the Rockets, the head coach of the two-time championship, and Yi Jianlian, aside from his Chinese identity, is just a depressed No. 6 show.

"Yi, he should understand." Before getting on the plane, Cole said with a smile.

Tang Tian paused for a moment and didn't speak, hesitated, but still took out his mobile phone and called Finch, asking him to pay more attention to Yi Jianlian's dynamics.

To be honest, it can be seen from the fact that he exchanged his basketball IQ for Yi Jianlian at the beginning that his expectations for Yi Jianlian are obviously higher than Sun Yue.

But it is precisely because of this expectation that he will be angry.

What others see is that Yi Jianlian has played poorly, but what he sees is the UAE that may repeat the mistakes of the past.

Back in Houston, Tang Tian also put Yi Jianlian's matter aside and refocused on the team.

After a sweet schedule, the Rockets' next opponent became difficult.

On November 27, after two days of rest, the Rockets ushered in a game against the Suns.

The Suns' lineup has not changed much from last season, and they have fallen out of the first episode of the championship after bombarding the position.

However, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the combined strength of Nash and Xiaosi should not be underestimated.

After the start of the game, the situation also seemed very anxious.

Landry is still playing aggressively, but against a version of Stoudemire who is full of athleticism and has almost doubled in size and ability, his performance is quite limited.

That's Landry's flaw.

Small stature with too short an arm span.

After all, the NBA is also a league that talks about talent, and talent determines the ceiling of players.

Combined with the opponent's research, Landry ended up with only 7 points and 5 rebounds.

The good news is that the Rockets were still superior in terms of strength, and eventually won 107-101.

The game was won, but the Rockets' No. 4 spot was once again put under the microscope.

The rest of the league gradually understood that Landry has obvious advantages and disadvantages, and due to talent, the Rockets' No. 4 position can still break through as before.

On November 31, the last day of the month, the Rockets ushered in another meeting with their old rival Spurs after a four-day break.

After Scola, Landry was also beaten up by the "Stone Buddha".

Landry can grab it, but Duncan's awareness of the card position is historic.

Landry can shoot three-pointers, and Duncan's defensive zone is self-contained.

Landry is elusive, and Duncan is just as ubiquitous.

In the end, Duncan scored 37 points, 21 rebounds and 4 rebounds to lead the Spurs to a 106-103 victory over the Rockets, achieving two consecutive wins in the season, and the Rockets' winning streak was finally fixed at 7 games.

The merits of a position don't necessarily determine the outcome of a match, but when thoroughly studied by the opponent, it is decisive.

Tang Tian's Plan A did not achieve the desired effect.

At this moment, Cole excitedly ran into the office.

"Yi scored 40 points, he dominated the game."
