"Next is the third position, all ready for me!"

At the Sacramento Kings Team Center, the team's assistant coaches are putting the final roll call ahead of summer training camp.

It's an important ritual for a team to get ready for the new season after a long summer break.

There is no special need to name this kind of thing, because when the players come to the new team, no matter how careless people - such as Brother Beasley, who is sitting in a chair next to him at this moment, the whole person is as soft as a snot, and there is no sense of commitment at all - will also pay more or less attention to what transactions the team has made in the summer, what changes have been made, and who their new teammates will be.

So the team's roll call has no practical effect at all, who doesn't have anyone, and who doesn't have a B number in his heart? Do you still need your coach to take care of the name? They are all men with an annual income of millions and millions, and they are not mentally retarded!

But for the spirit of the team, having such a small ceremony will give people a feeling that "the team is about to set sail and everyone must be ready for battle". This feeling is crucial to whether a team can muster enough fighting spirit.

So at this kind of time, generally speaking, the team's manager, manager, and general will be the protagonist.

The manager has to give a pre-match speech to motivate the players and build up their confidence.

The manager has to do a reassuring job of telling the players that everyone is part of the team's long-term plan, that they are not easy to trade, that as long as you don't die, you will always be part of the team, that you can gather people and not fight in silos.

The team manager needs to lead by example and express his vision and vision for the new season. The higher the morale of the main player, the higher the morale of the role players.

With these three guarantees, the team, at least on the surface, is integrated.

However, such an important ceremony is underway, and coach Phil Jackson's mind is not here.

"Hell ......" Phil Jackson doesn't remember how many years he has been, and he hasn't always felt like he took over the Kings this year, and muttered to himself, "Won't those two guys get bored?" It's been a summer, and it's really so fun to play like this every day?? ”

In fact, it is not the first time that Phil Jackson has seen this situation. In the past, in the Bulls, Jordan had to pull a person every day, and whoever didn't like it would be tortured and killed, Pippen was trained in this way, otherwise with Pippen's character, it would never be possible to reach the height in the future.

And on the Lakers, whether it was the OK period or the later Kobe Bryant's three-high era, Kobe Bryant was the heads-up maniac who "caused trouble" everywhere.

The team has newcomers, heads-up.

There are arrogant veterans to join, heads-up.

Interior players want the ball, heads-up.

The outside player complained that Kobe Bryant didn't pass the ball and went heads-up.

Even when the coach thinks that Kobe's style of play is problematic and the choice of shot is inappropriate, and he puts forward his opinion, Kobe Bryant will step forward angrily and stretch out his finger and ask for a heads-up.

This is Kobe's character, and it is also one of the secrets of the success of all paranoids - to spare no effort, to beat everyone around him, and to let the world know that he is powerful.

Gu Yu is undoubtedly such a person, and Wei Shao is the same, so it is completely understandable that they are happy to do it alone.

But the question is......

"Coach, you saw it last time, right?" Paul George said next to Phil Jackson: "Cousin and Wei Shao's heads-up record? ”

"Well, I see." Phil Jackson nodded, this is what puzzled him the most: "Russell's head is really iron, he has been abused like this, and he still yells everywhere every day to find his cousin to fight alone, it's really ......"

I don't know how many games a day, from 5 to 11 to 15 to 21, and even to the most exaggerated 50 heads-up.

Wei Shao, didn't win a game, and lost all by a big score.

This result is really incredible.

You must know that Wei Shao is also a first-line point guard in the league, after this summer's hard work, as far as Phil Jackson's feeling is concerned, Wei Shao in the new season is also the top three point guard candidates in the league. In terms of individual impact and scoring ability, there is hope that the first place will be contested.

It is impossible for a star of this level to be completely prevented, it can only be said to be a limit. Gu Yu's defense has indeed made great progress, and the single defense at the outside gate level is extremely impressive. But in the face of Wei Shao, Gu Yu's physical fitness is still a little bit of a gap, and this gap is quite a huge impact in the heads-up match.

In a month's time, Gu Yu didn't lose a game? What is this concept??

And after losing for more than a month, he still rushed up with an iron head, what is the concept of Wei Shao's psychological quality? ?

Even the well-informed Phil Jackson is a little unimaginable.

"By the way, you still have a superhero training camp over there, right?" Phil Jackson remembered this and asked Paul George next to him: "Have you watched the results of the later games?" Heads-up in terms of ?? ”

"Uh-huh, there's something to see." George nodded, "Cousin's win rate has dropped a bit, but it's still very high, and it looks like other superstars are improving." Curry, in particular, is still on the rise in winning percentage, and when he's outside the three-point line, he's very dominant. ”

"Everyone is improving, Gu Yu has improved the most, and Westbrook is still a certain gap from those players...... Well, I see. Phil Jackson nodded, not saying anything more.

This is also a reasonable thing, if Wei Shao can also have that level of ability, the king's new season will really be a super battleship.

Throughout the summer, Phil Jackson barely gave the players any special tactical practice, and every day he went to the sidelines, just watching the players practice, barely giving any comments or comments. It's just that the players are asked to follow the customized plan of the assistant coaches, and occasionally they will say a little bit of their own opinions and suggestions.

This is very different from Phil Jackson's style on weekdays, even if he is not Larry Brown's kind of hard-working ghost who does everything by himself and has to do everything by himself, as a famous coach, he still pays attention to the basic layout in advance.

But this team is different.

The current Kings team is a team that is still evolving, and there are new changes every day.

The day before, McGee may have bloodied Gobert in a training match, and the next day, Gobert may have a few big hats to get back on the court.

In the last round, Vitesse was also dangled to his grandmother's house by Stevenson, and in the next round, there may be a blood-pumping slam on Stevenson's head, which makes people's blood boil.

Green, Thomas Jr., George, Bynum, Beasley......

Every player of the Kings has infinite possibilities, what the future will become, and what kind of task intensity he can take on in the new season, Phil Jackson has no bottom in his heart.

So the Lord of the Rings among coaches, very cautious.

The triangle attack requires players to have a detached understanding of the pitch, space, and tactics. Role players outside of superstars, in particular, have to be very clear about their position and positioning.

When to do something, when to sprint, when to give room to the superstar to go head-to-head, all these details, the slightest carelessness, can make the team's overall strategy a dead letter.

Perhaps, the triangle offensive is the most liberal offensive tactic in the world. But at the same time, it is also the tactic that brings the greatest test to the player's ball quotient.

On the other hand, in the Kings team, McGee, Bynum, Witesse, and even Willis don't seem to be their strong point. How to find the right position for them, so that they can use their reflexive reactions and superhuman physical conditions to perfectly embed the overall tactics of the team?

Phil Jackson, still groping.

It sounds like time is running out, but Phil Jackson knows that if he rushes and forces tactics without first figuring this out, the result will only outweigh the losses.

The future of the Kings may be at a turning point in their fate this summer.

“…… Well, in addition to Danny Granger, who is still recovering from injuries in the third position, Paul George and Beasley are in place! On the sidelines, the assistant coach continued: "Next is the second position!" ”

George is good at defending, Beasley is good at attacking, and if Granger comes back, it will also bring experience and pick-up projection. The King's No. 3 idea, like the center and power forward, is based on thickness. Most of the players are role players above the caliber level, and no one dares to say that they can hold the position of absolute main force. Everything depends on the chemistry and the characteristics of different opponents.

It's so much fun......!!

Phil Jackson is actually a little excited in his heart, being able to coach such a team and maximize his role as a coach is a situation that makes people laugh out loud in their dreams.

"My cousin isn't here, Stevenson and Vitesse are here, and there's the number one below!" The teaching assistant continued to roll call.

Stevenson, full of spirit, very seductive, imaginative passing, dribbling is like dancing on the court, and is a passer who can start the axis. At the same time, he also has quite good defensive and auxiliary defense skills.

But when his brain is in the water, Stevenson can ruin the game with one hand, and the consistency is extremely poor. It also comes with angering the opponent's superstar, so that the opponent will break out in a wave to take away the attributes, and you must pay attention to it when using it.

Vitesse, born a father, has to be strong all his life, has outstanding ability to shoot strongly, and his ability to force iron is even more prominent. It's an absolute endpoint, a black hole level shooting maniac on the court.

But the stability is also extremely bad, and the heavenly soldiers and generals are not his opponents, and the feel is not bloody, and the primary school students can abuse him bloodily.

In addition, Gu Yu, who integrates various offensive means such as explosiveness, stability, strong play, heads-up, no ball, etc.

The second position of the king is undoubtedly the strongest point on the court.

As for the number one position......

Russell...... What about the Russells?! The assistant coach reported Westbrook's name, but no one answered, and when he looked around, he couldn't see Wei Shao's figure at all.

"He's ......"

"Bang!" "! ”

The door of the training ground was slammed open, and Wei Shao walked in with a lot of fire, although he was scolding his mother, but the expression on his face was as excited as if he had won the Mark Six jackpot.

"Damn, win!! ! Finally won!! Hahaha!!! ”

What the?!

As soon as Wei Shao's words fell, everyone was shocked.

Wei Shao won?

Heads-up, won Gu Yu?!

Really?!!

"Hahaha, it's amazing~~" Behind Wei Shao, Gu Yu also walked in, looked at Phil Jackson from a distance, blinked slightly, nodded with a smile: "Russell won me, he started the opening game of the new season, he is qualified to play, congratulations~!! ”

“…… Awesome! Russell is amazing! Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and they all applauded and applauded Wei Shao.

This guy definitely conceded the ball!!

What does Phil Jackson look at? At a glance, he saw the clues inside, smiled at Gu Yu, and nodded.

Let him win a game once in a while, it is definitely deserved, Wei Shao's character is rigid and easy to break. Although I have endured it for so long, I have been abused by you Gu Yu vigorously, and I have not flinched, and my nerves are indeed hard enough. But he has not been allowed to win, and sooner or later there will be problems.

Gu Yu is worthy of being the core of the team he fancies, and he is an absolute power in the future, and he can take so many different ways to motivate different teammates, and he does have a hand......

"Then starting tomorrow, I won't use my left hand, I'll start using my right hand!"

Me @#¥%&......!!!

As soon as Gu Yu said the next sentence, everyone's jaws all smashed to the ground and shattered.
