Chapter Eighty-Seven: Players and Coaches
If a person only has a physical talent, but basketball skills are like a blank slate, his formation is very slow, and it is already remarkable that a talented season can develop an ability.
But Totoro is a lucky hanger, his dribbling ability, projection ability, passing ability, including layups and dunks, and back body skills, are already the top NBA small forwards can achieve, these things are stored in Totoro's body and subconscious like muscle memory.
He is equivalent to having both excellent external strength conditions and a top-level internal strength, but he is not used to these things yet, all he has to do is to adapt to this body.
It's much easier than starting from scratch.
Of course, your all-round cap does not mean that you can score one by throwing a ball, he still sets the peak according to the NBA arena, just like James, he is already the best physical one among the small forwards in the active league, and the 2K game sets the limit of small forwards according to him, so this is the case in the game parameters, even if Totoro is used as a cheat, the physical fitness he gets cannot be more perverted than James, and it will even be a little worse, no way, who let him choose the yellow race.
But because this is a time to the parallel world of reality, the hidden talents of the yellow race will naturally be revealed, such as flexibility, injury resistance and endurance, which are not very intuitive physical qualities in the eyes of fans, so one plus one subtraction, Totoro's comprehensive physical quality is actually still five or five with gorillas.......
A gorilla has been hailed as the emperor of the new era of modern basketball just by his physical fitness, so where is Totoro's limit, which now has more flexible feet and better long-range shooting ability than James?
With five minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Suns still trailed the Rockets by 13 points, and coach Terry immediately announced that he would replace the starting lineup and surrender, anyway, he saw that the players on the court had no desire to win, and it was only the first ten regular season games of the new season, so there was no need to use iron heads to fight with others.
Totoro returned to the bench with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists enjoying the cheers of the fans, and now Totoro has become more and more popular with Rockets fans.
For pseudo-fans, others look like a talented jade tree, tall and muscular, and have a sense of beauty, elegant style of ball, dunk domineering and dashing, which is enough for them to go crazy for him.
And for senior fans, Totoro's basketball skills have also conquered them, the offensive end dares to be willing to share the ball, the defensive end is the first to dare to fight and is not afraid of physical confrontation, like what kind of rebounding and blocking eye-catching chores He is also willing to undertake, what else can they ask for?
Finally, for ancestral fans, Totoro's large possession of the ball is still a bit bad for them, but think about it, which team core doesn't play like this? Yao Ming didn't show any dissatisfaction in public, what are they worried about? And Totoro can also bring victory to the team, which is enough for them to support the rookie.
"Jeff, this game is over, the Suns don't have any chance, I know you just got fired from the Rockets, I don't want to poke you in the sore spots, but how do you think this Rockets team now compares to the Rockets team you brought last few seasons?"
The game was broadcast live by ESPN TV, there were no ups and downs in the game, the Rockets led the Suns all the way, and the actual gap between the two teams made it clear to those who knew basketball at a glance, so there was nothing to do with these anchors, at the end of the game, in order to brush up on the sense of existence, ESPN's ace anchor Kenny A. Smith threw a question to the newcomer who had just come here to report, Fan Baldzi.
"Well, well, that's a tough question to answer."
Van Gundy Jr. looked at the main team of the Rockets who were celebrating on the bench, and a bitter smile involuntarily hung on the corner of his mouth.
"They're lucky, and I have to admire the decisiveness of the Rockets' top brass this year, who traded Maddy, who has already started to decline, and the street ball king who has been unproductive, for a rookie who can become a superstar of tomorrow, and also has two All-Star interior players, and this deal is definitely arguably the most successful deal the Rockets have made in the last decade."
Van Bald sighed, he now really wanted to return to the field in the camera and enjoy the joy of victory in place of Adelman.
"You all know I'm a defensive player, and I just want to say that if Totoro can go to the NBA draft a year early, I'm going to make him the best defensive player, and these starters and bench players, I'm confident that I'll make them the best defensive team in the league, they have the talent, and I have the ability."
Now everyone can hear the unwillingness in Van Gundy's tone, his best experience as a professional coach was to take the Knicks in the 90s to the finals, but he never got a ring to become a champion coach, and now seeing the performance of the Rockets, Van Bald really wants to hand over the application letter to General Manager Morey again.
But there is no if, the NBA is also a business league, if Yao Ming's performance suddenly fails, Alexander is estimated to trade him out, as a coach, he can have a second chance with the Rockets in the first round of the playoffs, which is already considered his luck.
The coach is not a player, the contract is not protected by the league, and it does not occupy the salary space of the league, and generally the team that performs poorly is changed when it is said, as strong as KFC Grandpa finally left the Lakers in a very undignified way, coached Utah Shuangsha, and worked hard and conscientiously for the Jazz Sloan, the 47-year-old coach Sloane finally got out of class because of the conflict with Deron Williams, the superstar on the basketball court is definitely more important than the head coach, don't look at the Spurs' Popovich position is very stable, That's because he chose a name called Tim Duncan, and was able to silently support him for decades, if there was any dirt between the old man and Duncan, then nine times out of ten it was Popovich himself who left.
"If I had been given this lineup last year, we would never have been eliminated 4-2 by the Utah Jazz for the second time."
