After sending his parents away, Chang Wei plunged into the study and began to read books on basketball tactics voraciously. Don't get me wrong, he's not an otaku and he's never considered being the team's manager, he just wants to learn from the vast amount of tactics that will undoubtedly help him a lot in coaching the players in the future.

And he didn't just swallow it, but verified the current situation of the team with what he had learned, trying to find some usable knowledge. Although the difficulty was very high, Chang Wei still gained something, and he probably guessed what the head coach needed to do on his own.

Take a look at the team's lineup for the new season! Maddy and Battier started at the No. 2 and No. 3 positions respectively, and Brand was short because of his stature, and Rappers wanted him to play the No. 4 slot, but in addition to their three high school stars, the other two starters were lackluster, namely Howard Brown, who was promoted from the bench to the starter, and Malik Allen, a sophomore who was recruited into the team.

Aaron's main task is to sit under the basket with his height of 2.11 meters, act as the team's last barrier, and help Brand deal with those tall and strong big men. Brown, on the other hand, didn't show enough playmaking last season and seemed to prefer scoring in his limited playing time, in other words, there was no reliable playmaker in the starting lineup.

Chang Wei's eyes are bright, and Rappers must be hoping that he will find a playmaker in the starter, or create a playmaker, after all, it is impossible to put five guys who are difficult to organize offense on the court at the same time in a basketball game.

He took the team's roster and started to figure it out. First of all, Chang Wei has to admit that the starting team of Lappers is indeed the strongest lineup of the team, but it is indeed a fact that there is no playmaker. Secondly, Chang Wei can think of two ways without reading books, one is to organize the forward, and the other is to organize the center, in his opinion, Maddie and Brand can act as the team's organizers through training.

In fact, the playmaking center and the playmaking striker are common sayings, and it does not mean that the team's center or striker must be used to execute the tactics. As long as the inside line organizes the offense by passing the ball in the high post, it can be classified as an organizational center tactic; As long as the wing players organize the offense, whether it is a forward, a quarterback, or a swingman, it is considered a forward tactic.

Battier is clearly not able to play as a playmaker, and although he has a high ball quotient, his ability to break through with the ball is still far from Maddy's. In Chang Wei's view, Battier is most suitable to be a top outside 3D player like in his previous life, and it is better to leave the tactics of organizing forwards to Maddie.

However, Chang Wei is not sure if Maddie will accept such an arrangement, in his previous life, this guy was the top scorer in the league, although he is also willing to pass the ball, but there is no doubt that this is not his main business. Brand may be a better fit in comparison, with a gentler personality than Maddy, and a hard-to-go chance to play inside with the ball if the team is going to pick up the pace.

But it may be better to have these two people take turns to organize the attack, after all, two playmakers are much more difficult to deal with than one, and it is difficult for the opponent to limit two people at the same time, so it is a double insurance. After making up his mind, Chang Wei began to consciously browse through tactical books on playmaking strikers and playmaking centers in order to deal with Lappers's "troubles".

As Chang Wei expected, the day before the team gathered, Rappers called him into his office and asked, "We were very successful in the offseason, but unfortunately we didn't recruit a reliable playmaker." Brown can't take responsibility yet, and new entrant Medley has to top it in garbage time, so what can you do to fix that? ”

Chang Wei smiled, took out a piece of paper from his bag and slapped it on the table: "I have two ideas, either Elton or Tracy, these two people are our candidates for this season's organizers." ”

Rappers picked up the piece of paper and looked at it at a glance. In fact, there are not many words on the paper, which is also Chang Wei's consistent style, he doesn't like to express his opinions too long-winded, but every time he hits the nail on the head, and this time is no exception. He just drew a few tactical drawings on paper and wrote some notes, and he perfectly represented his ideas.

As an experienced head coach, Rappers understood Chang Wei's tactics at a glance, and this was an idea that was born after his recruitment. Of course, this comes from Thomas's performance as a playmaker in a number of games last season, a tactic that was only used occasionally before, but may become a regular tactic for the team in the new season.

What type of player Thomas is Lapus knows very well, after all, he was the one who brought Thomas in in the first place. This guy undoubtedly had no passing skills and playmaking acumen at first, and could only be used as an interior scorer, but later he was able to organize offense in the high post, largely thanks to Chang Wei's tuning.

So at the beginning, when he found that he couldn't recruit a star point guard, he hit the idea on Brand's head, but what he didn't expect was that Chang Wei actually took Maddie into consideration, does he have so much confidence in this guy?

In the face of Rappers's doubts, Chang Wei smiled and said: "I believe Tracy, his talent is undoubtedly top-notch. Although he has always been known as a top scorer, he is definitely an excellent playmaker as long as he is willing to pass the ball. I believe in his talent, or I believe in myself that I can transform him into a playmaker. ”

Rappers asked rhetorically, "What about Elton?" I think he's better suited to be a playmaker and we can replicate the tactics that we used with Thiem last season and save a lot of time. ”

'I'll admit that Elton is really good at being a tower in the high post and it's hard for him to get the ball in the low post if the tempo of the game is going to be quicker. But I have to remind you that both can be playmakers, but with Tracy at the heart of the playmaker, the ceiling will be higher, and his ability to control the ball will allow the team to be a little more flexible. ”

Rappers snorted and said, "I will use them as the core of the organization to practice tactics, but you also have to train the two of them seriously for me." Any possibility can only be seen by comparing the two, understand? ”

Chang Wei laughed: "Of course it's no problem, I'm also looking forward to training these two talented players at the same time, and then we'll see which of them is more suitable to be the team's organizational core!" ”
