After solving Li's psychological problems, Chang Wei began to add extra training to him non-stop. As an outside defender, speed and strength are the top priorities, and they must be taken into account at the same time, not to mention prediction, which is the dividing line that determines whether a player is elite or mediocre, but fortunately, Lee's prediction ability has exceeded expectations.

If you want to go further, 3-and-D players will be Lee's best bet. But with the current level of the system, Chang Wei can't help him improve his three-point shooting for the time being, and this can only be handed over to the team's shooting coach. Even so, the open cut basket and the baseline layup are enough for him in the NCAA, and the outside shooting can be strengthened later.

Lee's performance in the intra-team competition also bought him more playing time. Previously, he could only play an average of 3.5 minutes per game, and the most game was only 6 minutes, which was just half of the task. But after switching to shooting guard, his average playing time has come to 10 minutes per game, which is considered a qualified rotation player.

Villanova University now has a 10-4 record and continues to lead the Great East Conference. But next up for them is the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers from the Big Ten League, a team to be reckoned with and currently ranked second in the Big Ten League, with starting point guard Bobby Jackson considered a potential lottery pick in the 1997 draft.

Obviously, Bobby Jackson is their number one star, but Villanova's starting backcourt combination is basically offensive rather than defensive, and Erwin is relatively better than Selesstad, but he has to focus most of his energy on organizing the team's offense, and if he expends too much effort on the defensive end, it will inevitably affect the team's offense.

The dilemma annoyed the normally calm Lappers, who had been in his office for two nights in a row, and the only thing he had to do was watch the footage of the two teams over and over again and stare at the roster on the table. In fact, Minnesota's overall strength is not as good as Villanova's, but Jackson's threat is too great, and he has not tried to solve a team by himself, so it is not a wise decision to let him score.

Seeing that tomorrow is the time for the two sides to fight, Rappers still has no clue, with his character, he must hope to fight against the opponent, but Jackson has a lot of firepower, and the attack may not be effective. While he was pondering, the phone on the table rang, and Rappers picked it up, and his wife's voice came from the microphone: "Honey, aren't you coming home so late?" It's the third day, and I don't know what you're doing in the arena every night. ”

Although it was a complaint, Ruth also knew that with her husband's character, she would never go out to do something to make a fuss, so her tone was not too intense, and even a little gentle. She knew that her husband was a crazy basketball coach, and it was commonplace to soak in the stadium without sleep or food, and she just didn't want him to break her body because of it.

Rappers pinched his temple hard, pulled himself together and said, "I'm thinking about tomorrow's game, you can sleep first, maybe I'll be home in another hour." ”

Ruth was so angry and funny, it was almost 12 o'clock in the evening, and she would definitely be asleep in another hour! But thinking of the pressure her husband was under, she still said gently: "Okay, don't think too much, come tomorrow according to the arrangement of each of your previous games, I think it should be fine." ”

Lappers hung up the phone after a few words, and said to himself: "I also know that you don't have to think too much about it, but tomorrow this opponent will definitely lose if you go according to the rules!" ”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning. If you do it step by step, you have to lose, so what about if you don't follow it step by step? The result is definitely not worse than losing, but at least there is a chance to find a chance to find a chance!

Rappers's eyes swept to the last name on the roster, Chris Lee, wouldn't it be better for him to deal with Bobby Jackson? But this rookie has only performed well in the bench so far, and all of a sudden he is allowed to play against the star guard of the NCAA, and it is good to say that if he can't pass, this kid's basketball career may be ruined! He thought about it, picked up the microphone again, and dialed a number.

It took a while for the phone to be answered, and a voice that could hear sleepiness came through the wire: "Coach, why are you calling me so late?" You have to know that it is immoral to wake people up in the middle of the night......"

Nonsense, there must be something urgent to call you, who is still thinking about immoral things now...... Rappers complained to himself and said: "Chang, I want to put Lee in the starting line for tomorrow's game, do you think it's okay?" ”

Chang Wei's voice was still lazy, not excited at all by this sentence. He yawned and said indifferently: "You're the manager, you have the final say, anyway, I'm sure he can start the game." Bobby Jackson is indeed strong, but he's not a top star yet, and Lee's current ability is enough. ”

Rappers was not relieved by Chang Wei's assurance, he was silent for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "What if he is beaten by Jackson and never recovers?" I'm responsible for his basketball career! ”

On the other end of the phone, Chang Wei's voice was instantly as cold as ice: "This is what any player must experience, unless he doesn't want to step on a higher stage to show his talent!" On the court, your opponents won't feel pity for you because you're a rookie, they'll just take this as a loophole and smash it hard! ”

"If Lee is slumped just because he was beaten by Jackson, it only proves that he doesn't qualify to continue on the basketball path, which may be a good thing for him. If he still wants to move forward, he has to adapt, and even treats the other party as his own whetstone, and if he can't do it, then it can only be said that all my previous efforts are farting! ”

Lappers was squeezed by Chang Wei's sharp and unforgiving words, and it took a while for him to whisper: "Okay, I know, I'll have him take Selesstad's place tomorrow as the team's starting point guard." You're right, it's something he has to go through and all I can do as a manager is create chances for him. Then Rappers slowly hung up.

On the other end of the phone, Chang Wei listened to the busy tone from the microphone and said silently: "Chris, I can only help you get here, it's up to you how far you can go next!" ”
