Chapter 174: The Captain's Attitude

"Chang, I'm sorry, Aaron is such a person, it is difficult for him to trust other people, I hope you don't take his performance to heart." After letting the team members disband on their own, Brown said apologetically to Chang Wei.

Chang Wei smiled and said, "I know, I've heard about his unruly attitude since he entered the alliance, and this kind of treatment has long been expected by me. When I first joined Villanova and Colorado State, a lot of players treated me like that, but I have faith in conquering him, just like I did in the NCAA. ”

Brown nodded, patted him on the shoulder, and said gently, "Then our work will start tomorrow!" ”

Early the next morning, Chang Wei arrived at the training hall with a thick stack of training plans, and this time there was still half an hour before the meeting time that Brown had announced the day before. Yesterday he vaguely told Brown that he wanted to find a breakthrough from the team first, and Brown recommended him to Iverson's backcourt partner Snow, the No. 44 rookie in 1995 is currently the captain of this team, and he can convince him to do more with less.

According to Brown, Snow comes to the gym early every day for extra training, which isn't too long, but it also lasts an hour or two. The second-round pick is well aware of his lack of talent, so he is determined to make up for it with diligence, and judging from his performance with the 76ers in recent seasons, the training has obviously worked well.

As the starting point guard next to Iverson, Snow's task is simple, defending the opposing team's outside scorers while sorting out the team's offense so that Iverson has more energy to score on his own. In Chang Wei's opinion, it would be perfect if these two people exchanged heights, Snow played point guard, and Iverson played point guard, and it would not be as awkward as it seems now.

Chang Wei watched with interest the sweaty Snow running back and forth on the court, and now the three-point shot is not very important, so Snow has increased his training to defend and pass. The offensive player is played by Malik, an assistant coach on the coaching staff who is dedicated to the defense, and it is obvious that he has a good personal relationship with Snow, otherwise he would not have come to the training gym so early to train with the latter, knowing that the team would not pay him overtime for this.

After Snow completed another set of trainings, Chang Wei strode over, greeted Malik first, and then looked at Snow and said lightly: "Eric, I think you still need to practice your outside shooting ability." ”

Snow's personality is the polar opposite of Iverson's, but that doesn't mean he's going to take all the advice anyone gives him, let alone a young assistant coach like Chang Wei. However, out of politeness, he asked rhetorically: "Now that Allen has Allen on the team who can score from the outside, isn't my job to help him share the pressure of organization and defense?" What do you want to shoot? ”

The tone is not very good, but Chang Wei doesn't care, as long as you are willing to speak, it is victory. He shook his head and said: "The team's outside shooting ability is not ideal, George is a pure defender, and he grabs rebounds not badly, but it is more difficult for him to shoot from the outside." And Allen's outside shooting is also a nerve knife, in other words, the team does not have a reliable outside shooter. ”

"I heard that Rashad was replaced because of your advice, are you not confident in your vision?"

"No, it has nothing to do with faith. Rashad does have the potential to be an outside pitcher, but now he needs more targeted training and game experience. In my opinion, the three-point shot is going to be a very important way to score, and I think we should be planning for it. As he spoke, Chang Wei took out a copy of the training plan in his arms and handed it to Snow, "This one is yours." ”

Snow took the training plan in disbelief, and after reading a few lines, he couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, is your plan here to be funny?" I don't see how this can help me......"

Chang Wei interrupted him: "Running five kilometers with weights every morning is to exercise your physical fitness and allow you to fight longer on the field; Playing table tennis is to exercise your reflexes and not be overtaken by your opponent's gorgeous dribbling skills; The other pork knuckles, steaks are also what I think you need to consume, is there anything else you need? ”

Snow didn't speak, just motioned for Malik to help him take a look, he felt that what Chang Wei said seemed to make sense, but this training plan was strange no matter how you looked at it. However, Malik has long known that Chang Wei has the support of Brown, and although he also wonders why the manager trusts a hairy boy so much, he is not enough to go against the boss.

In response to Snow's plea for help, Malik simply skimmed through the training plan and shrugged his shoulders to say that there was nothing he could do. Chang Wei hit the railroad while it was hot: "These are extra training, or you can use them as an after-training adjustment, I guarantee you will benefit from this training plan, and you will know when the preseason comes." ”

Snow pondered for a while, and finally nodded reluctantly, not forgetting to "threaten": "Chang, if this training plan does not work, I will report it directly to Coach Brown, I hope you can be mentally prepared at that time." ”

Chang Wei pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Don't worry, you don't have this opportunity." ”

This training plan was systematically formulated based on Snow's current shortcomings. After joining the NBA, the system's rating of each player is automatically converted to the NBA level, Snow's overall rating is only 78, and many of his soft power such as resilience and fighting spirit exceed 80, but unfortunately the shooting is only 65, and the two items of passing and physical fitness can also continue to improve.

As a full-time defender next to Iverson, Chang Wei still intends to let him further strengthen his fitness and passing first, and although shooting is also important, it is not a priority. For a player like Snow, he must first be able to defend himself before he can think about scoring, so although Chang Wei insists that he should improve his three-point ability, he is only required to hit 100 three-pointers a day, which is better than nothing for NBA players.

But in any case, being able to convince the captain of the team is a good start, and at least Chang Wei will not be hindered too much when it comes to distributing training plans to others. Snow shouldn't help him speak, but he won't make trouble for him, this is already the best working environment Chang Wei can fight for himself.
