One Hundred and One: Press Conference

In the next two days, He Dabao left Indiana, and he was going back to New York to register the company. Li Wu trained at a training ground arranged by the NCAA organizers.

Coach Smith has regarded Li Wu as a member of the coaching staff since last night's game against Kentucky, after all, Li Wu's predictions of the situation on the court are very accurate, the most outstanding of which is the situation faced by Towns and Booker.

In between practice, Coach Smith said to Li Wu: "Lee, I'm sure you also know a little bit about our opponent, the Duke University Blue Devils and their coach Mike Shhashevsky. ”

"Old Coach K, there are few people who don't know him who plays basketball, it was he who brought the American Dream Nine team back to the top of the world after 16 years, I think whether it is NCAA or NBA players, they only worship and respect him." Li Wu said.

"Yes, old Coach K, he is also my idol. As you can tell, a lot of the tactics I've set up for you have a dynamic offensive in them. Coach Smith said.

Dynamic offense is a very flexible way of attacking. Its main features are the movement of players, the correct space on the pitch, the coordination of passing and cutting the ball, and the proper cover.

Unlike fixed tactics, players in a dynamic offensive system mainly move around the field according to a number of principles. This means more flexibility. The opponent's defense, whether it is man-marking, joint defense, or defense against star players, can be easily faced. Players are also free to run open slots. Once those basic concepts are learned, and the coach designs some targeted tactics, the team's combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.

After Li Wu entered the team, whether it was the initial running, catching, shooting, or later distribution, it contained the shadow of dynamic offense, which was completely different from the small ball conversion that is popular in the league now.

"Yes, coach, your tactics are indeed in line with the principles of dynamic offense." Li Wu agreed.

"Then you should know one thing, Coach K, the old K, learned the skills from Indiana University coach Bob Knight, the "grandfather of dynamic offense---," and then turned Duke into a superpower team that has reached the NCAA finals ten times and won the national championship three times. He's also got a super center under him this year with a very high quality pick-and-roll level, so we probably can't do anything with their dynamic offense. Coach Smith said to Li Wu with a solemn face.

"Coach, Okafor is probably more difficult than Downs, unlike Downs, Okafor averages 30 minutes per game, which is enough to show that he takes the NCAA game seriously, and he is also aiming for the championship. But to be honest, in terms of talent, he's still a lot worse than Downs, and I think Osette Kowski and my help can completely limit him, but as you mentioned earlier, his pick-and-roll quality is very high, and if he does the pick-and-roll dynamic attack, maybe we can't really do it. Fortunately, Coach K doesn't have as many players as Kentucky, and the quality of their bench players is lackluster, so as long as we can withstand the attacks of their starting lineup, we still have a chance to win this game. Li Wu said.

Coach Smith clapped his hands and said, "That's right! Lee, that's what I mean! We're going to block their starting lineup! Their starting five players are averaging 63.1 points per game combined, and their team is averaging just 79.3 points per game this season, so we just can't score less than their starting lineup! With your stamina, when they come off the bench that's when we win the game! ”

"Sir, I see what you mean, you want me to play more aggressively at the beginning, bite the score to the death, and then fight them to the end." Li Wu comprehended.

"Yes, Lee, you have to know that now the whole Lions are watching you play, as long as you can play well, the players will relax a little bit, and if you don't play well, their performance will only get worse, so in the next game, I want you to step up as soon as possible." Coach Smith said.

"Okay, Mr. Coach, I promise you, I'll be the first to step up." Li Wu nodded and said.

After Li Wu and Smith discussed it, they continued to return to the court to train, and after a while, it was public training time, a large number of media rushed in, and their cameras were aimed at Li Wu, under the strong demand of these media, Coach Smith decided to hold a small press conference after the training, and the person attending the press conference was Li Wu.

In the press conference, the Lions stipulated that Li Wu could only answer five questions, and as for the candidate, let Li Wu decide for himself.

So when Li Wugang sat down, the reporters all raised their hands, and Li Wu glanced at a white man with the New York Times logo on the microphone and said to him: "Please ask this Mr. from the New York Times first." ”

The man stood up and thanked Li Wu before saying, "Hello, I'm Mike Staff, a reporter for the New York Times, and first of all, I want to congratulate you on leading the Lions to the finals, which is the honor of our entire New York City." I would also like to ask if you have the confidence to do miracles again. ”

'We've come this far and of course we have confidence, our confidence was built up against one tough opponent after another, and I'm confident that we'll be able to perform perfectly in a day's time.' Li Wu knows that he must not admit it at such a time, after all, his teammates are watching him, and the fans in the United States and China are also watching him.

The second question Li Wu asked Abby's colleague Fox Sports reporter to ask, the question is: How do you think Duke University is stronger than Kentucky and Wisconsin? Because there are many experts who think that Duke was able to enter the finals because he avoided these two strong opponents, but you won these two strong opponents.

Li Wu sighed in his heart when he heard this, it seemed that Abby's colleagues did not understand his situation at all, and dug a pit as soon as he opened his mouth. But in his previous life, he was a world-class boxing champion, and his ability to deal with the media is not comparable to ordinary college students: "I don't think there is a weak team in Crazy March, because we only have one game to decide who can advance, and sometimes you play well, you advance, you don't play well, you have to go home, so I can't answer this question, in my opinion, they are all very strong." ”

The third question was asked by an ESPN reporter: DraftExpress gives you a minimum of Avery Bradley and a ceiling of John Wall. Who do you think your own template is?

Li Wu smiled and said, "I don't want to be the second to anyone, I just want to be the first Li Wu." ”
