Chapter 564: Stormy Storm

The Celtics took the lead by a big score and undoubtedly disgraced the Bobcats, and they had to say something about it in an interview. For example, Jackson said at the press conference: "This is Boston, this is the Celtics' turf, and they are obviously better than us here, and they only lose because we are not as good as others, that's all......"

Roy, the team's captain, was also bombarded by reporters in the locker room, and he said in frustration: "The Celtics have come this far for a reason, their defense is so strong, and the performances of Paul, Ray and Kevin don't show that they are getting old." Of course we don't want to be bloodied, but we're going to play harder in the next game. ”

Chang Wei watched all this coldly, he never took the initiative to be interviewed, and it was difficult for reporters to find his head, which was also the fundamental reason why he was not the head coach in the first place. He just stood in the corner and quietly thought about the current situation, which he thought was more important than being interviewed by reporters, at least it would help a lot for the next game.

The biggest problem for the Bobcats now is that they can't play the style of play they are good at in the face of the Celtics' iron wall, and there is no such thing as a fast offense, and the team can only rely on Roy to constantly attack the basket. As for Gasol Jr.'s high-level system, when the Celtics played a small-ball lineup with Posey and Garnett as the interior combination, it was also mediocre.

Chang Wei has a lot of trust in the players he has selected, and he also believes that this team can win the championship after maturity, but it seems that they are moving forward a little bigger, reaching the playoffs in the first season of the team, and advancing to the division finals in the second season, and the Bucks, who may only win the championship in three seasons in NBA history, can match them.

But the Bucks didn't face such a challenge back then, as they eliminated the San Francisco Warriors 4-1 in the first round of the playoffs, then beat the Los Angeles Lakers by the same score, and swept Baltimore in the finals. Not only do the Bucks play one less round than the Bobcats, but they also boast two epic players – "Sky Hook" and "Big O."

Chang Wei is not arrogant enough to think that anyone in the team can reach the level of these two gods, so he is not too optimistic that the team can break through the blockade of the Celtics. In the previous season, the Celtics can be said to have crawled out of hell, they fought with the Hawks in the first round to tie seven, and in the second round with the Cavaliers, they knocked down the Pistons 4-2 in the Eastern Conference finals, and defeated the Lakers 4-2 in the finals, and now the Bobcats have become spoilers, but they are still a disadvantage in terms of overall strength.

The only solution for the Bobcats is to make the most of their physical strengths, even if they are limited by the Celtics' big net, they still have to run aggressively. The failure of this game was that most people stood on the spot and played, just watching Roy carry the ball and attack the basket again and again, resulting in only four players on the team scoring double-doubles.

The morning after returning to the hotel, instead of scheduling a practice, Jackson gathered the coaching staff and players for a tactical meeting with a single theme: how to break down the opposing defense in the next game.

Obviously, this is a difficult problem, and when Jackson finished speaking, no one was willing to stand up at the first time, and everyone was whispering below, frowning one by one, obviously unable to come up with any practical and effective solutions. Jackson looked around and sighed secretly, he is a coach who can listen to opinions, but the key is that no one gives him advice!

After an awkward moment of silence, Jackson reluctantly began to take the roll call. He first named a few players, after all, they were the ones who played on the court, and they should have a deeper feeling about the Celtics' tactical system. The first to be called out was undoubtedly Roy, he grinned, his expression was very painful, no way, he was the captain of the team, of course he was the first to speak.

"Well, I think the next game needs more cover, their perimeter defense is not as weak as we thought it would be, and we used a lot of energy before we broke through, and it's harder to score inside the three-point line......

Roy's comments seemed to give a hint to the crowd, and the next players who were named turned the tactical meeting into a grievance meeting, emphasizing the inhuman difficulties they had encountered in the game, and then offering their own suggestions only in this area. Jackson sat on the throne and rubbed his forehead helplessly, these answers were not what he wanted to hear.

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded: "Since everyone has said the same, let me tell me what I think!" ”

Jackson was startled, and then overjoyed, it seemed that he was still a good friend to be trusted, and he was about to fall asleep listening to those suggestions just now. Now he desperately needs to defeat the Celtics' general direction strategy, rather than dwelling on the minutiae.

"I'm going to start by criticizing all the players on the pitch except Brandon!" Chang Wei's first sentence was amazing, and everyone in the entire conference room looked at him stunned, completely unaware of why he said this.

Chang Wei ignored everyone's surprised gaze and continued to say loudly: "Look at what you did yesterday when you were behind the score!" It's like losing my soul, and I'm afraid I can't even run 10 meters on the field in a round, right? That's how you play? Tell me, can you beat the Celts like this? My grandma is playing more aggressively than you! ”

"What are the characteristics of our tactics? That's a quick word, but unfortunately I didn't see this trait in you at all in the last game, so in my opinion, the first thing you need to improve in tomorrow's game is your own enthusiasm, try to run, to grab, to fight physically with your opponent. It's true that we don't have enough experience, but that's what we can do well, right? ”

"We're on the back side now, boys, if you still want to win this series, don't stand still and wait for pie to fall. What I can tell you is that the opponents are more hungry for this championship than we are, otherwise they wouldn't have assembled a core of the Big Three last summer. Being young is both our weakness and our strength, and in the next game I hope you can turn it into an advantage and put them in trouble with positive runs and physical confrontations. ”

"I'm sure you can do it, because you're the ones I single-handedly chosen, and if you can't, see the fuck off!" Chang Wei slapped the notebook in his hand on the table, got up and left the conference room directly, leaving a group of people looking at each other in their places.
