Chapter 185: Positioning

When his teammates pulled Lewis up, he was still thinking about it, but on the surface it looked like he was dumbfounded. Mutombo, who is also an interior player, patted him on the back of the head and said with a smile: "Don't pay too much attention to this matter Rassad, I've been in the league for so many years, and I've been overshadowed by others and deducted by others, isn't it okay now?" ”

Lewis frowned and muttered, "I'm not bothered by the shooting being covered, I just want to know how to get rid of Kevin's defense, this guy's coverage is horrible...... Is there no way to think about it? ”

Because the sound was so noisy, Mutombo didn't hear what Lewis was saying, but Lewis didn't think to get an answer from Mutombo's mouth, asking a defensive center who is often stationed under the basket how to shoot three-pointers so that he would not be blocked by the opponent, which was a stupid question in itself, and Lewis decided to find the answer himself.

The easiest way to avoid being blocked by your opponent is to use the power of your teammates, and as long as someone can block Garnett's way to pounce on defense, then Lewis will be difficult to be disrupted when shooting. However, he soon found out that this was just wishful thinking, and the only one who could help him stop Garnett was Mutombo, but when the 76ers attacked, Mutombo must always be ready to block Iverson or fight for offensive rebounds under the basket, which is the task assigned to him by Brown.

If it were someone else, the effect would be very poor, Lewis just asked Lynch to help him block it, but he didn't expect Garnett to fan his shot out through someone. This made Lewis's mouth close for a long time, he was frightened by Garnett's strong bounce, he can complete a block through anyone, is this guy still human?

In this way, he can only hide, Lewis sighed secretly, he has been polishing his shooting skills during this time, and the physical training required by Chang Wei is just passable, if you really want to find the shooting space through running, then you have to be tired to death? But that's the only way Lewis can think of at the moment, what else can he do if he doesn't work hard?

So he started to constantly intersperse runs inside and outside, hoping to run a big open space that Garnett couldn't afford. If it weren't for the unguarded vacancy in the real sense, Lewis wouldn't dare to shoot at all, he was really intimidated by Garnett's tough defense, and always subconsciously thought that there would be another pair of big hands waiting for his shooting point.

However, the consequences of such a frantic run soon became apparent, and although Lewis ran out of the open space on a few occasions and received the ball from his teammates, he hit the iron directly on a few shots. Brown on the sidelines frowned, he turned his head to Chang Wei and said, "Didn't Rashad perform well in the preseason?" Why is it withering again now? ”

Chang Wei said with a calm face: "It's not a problem with shooting skills, he's too tired!" ”

Brown looked closely for a while, then nodded and said, "Indeed, I see that he stops on his knees and rests more and more often, and his face is not very good-looking, it seems that it is time to replace him." ”

The old coach said to do it, he directly called a timeout, replaced Lewis with Hill, and now there are more than 4 minutes left before the end of the first quarter, which is not his usual substitution time, and it is obvious that he is not very satisfied with Lewis.

Lewis looked ashamed, and he casually high-fived Hill and sat back in silence. Brown also doesn't care about the current situation on the court, anyway, the 76ers have the combination of Iverson and Mutombo, and they can't afford to lose the Timberwolves led by Garnett. He lowered his voice and asked, "Rashad, what's the matter with you?" Aren't all pre-seasons good? ”

"I'm sorry, Coach...... Lewis was about to bury his head in his chest, "I just ...... It's just that my physical strength can't keep up, so I'll rest for a while, please give me another chance! ”

A hint of hesitation flashed across Brown's face, and he yelled at Chang Weinu and motioned for him to get Lewis out. Chang Wei smiled bitterly, but this is indeed the area he is responsible for, Lewis obviously did not train strictly according to the plan, he just practiced what he liked, and the estimate that he was not interested in was hastily finished, otherwise he would definitely not have a reduction in the hit rate due to physical exhaustion, and Chang Wei had never had such a problem among the players he had trained before.

So he moved to Lewis and asked solemnly, "Are you not exactly following the training plan I gave you?" Don't try to hide it, I know you're done with your training, but you definitely didn't put your mind to it, right? ”

Lewis looked up in surprise, but he couldn't speak, Chang Wei almost saw through him.

"You don't have to play again in this game," Chang Wei looked him in the eye and said carefully, "I'll give you special physical training from tomorrow, as a pitcher who needs to run, you can't do it without enough physical strength." ”

"Nope! I can play...... I can ......," Lewis pleaded.

Chang Wei looked at Brown, Brown nodded slightly, and he suddenly had confidence in his heart. "No, Rashad, it's not a discussion with you, it's just a matter of informing you. I don't think you'll play too much until you don't have the stamina to handle the game. ”

Lewis's face changed a few times, and he sighed helplessly. Chang Wei said it so clearly, what else could he say? If some of the big players can stay on the pitch and refuse to go off, then no one can come on without the permission of the coach, and it seems that they are not involved in the game.

Chang Wei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Rashad, I hope you can understand one thing, there are very few people who can be willful in competitive sports, and you are not among them. If you are selective about your training plan simply because of your own preferences, then one day you will suffer a big loss, and this game is a good example of this. ”

Lewis nodded silently, he had already seen the hidden danger of lack of physical strength, and he knew it a few times before the game, it was entirely because the arm strength was not as sufficient as it was in normal times, and it could be seen from the shooting arc that if you added a little more force, those balls could be hit completely, but he had more than enough strength but not enough strength.

At this time, he already felt very remorseful, if he had been able to complete all the training seriously, he would not have been pressed on the bench by the coach like now.
