(I ask for recommendation votes for support in the new week!) ）

The Raptors were an away game, so the day before the game, Richard flew out of the United States with his players on a special plane and arrived in Toronto, Canada.

In recent years, the Raptors' ball market has been hot, Vince Carter's dunk has made Canadians cheer wildly in every Raptors home game, in the face of such a Vince Carter in his prime, Richard really didn't dare to say that he could win this game with the team, after all, he didn't have the confidence to come up with a defensive plan to prevent Vince Carter, and failing to prevent Vince Carter meant defeat.

So this game Richard is still treated with a training attitude, before the game, Richard once again emphasized that he must adhere to his shooting tactics, even if he can't shoot, he must continue to shoot. As for Larry Hughes, Richard finally decided to let him try the same disposition that Richard had come up with earlier, and he gave Larry Hughes the privilege of possession while changing the starting lineup again.

"In this game, Larry (Hughes) tries to get the ball as much as possible, and you can choose to break through alone, but if the breakthrough is not good, then you have to pass the ball, and the pass is still the same as before, blocking, covering, looking for opportunities. Our starting lineup for this game was a change, with Bob (Sula) and Larry (Hughes) partnering in the backcourt, small forward Kenny Thomas, power forward Antoine Jamison, and center Eric Dampele. ”

Richard changed the starting lineup, putting Michael Reed back on the bench and putting the in-form Kenny Thomas in the starting lineup.

In the last game, Michael Reed only made 5 of 17 shots, and his state was extremely bad, which made Richard understand that even if Michael Reed has an All-Star level offense in the future, the current Michael Reed is just a bench player who has not played a starter, and he wants Michael Reed to appear in the starting position immediately, contributing 20+ points per game, which is still a little anxious.

So Richard decided to take his time, inserting Kenny Thomas, who can shoot three-pointers, into the starter, plus Antoine Jamison, who is super accurate in the middle of the shot, the Warriors' small-ball whirlwind tactics can be partially realized, which can also allow Larry Hughes's breakthrough to play some role, which can be regarded as a change after Richard's careful consideration, but if Michael Reid finds the rhythm to survive in Richard's set of tactics, it may also affect Larry Hughes, so the current Richard's handling method is only a temporary last resort.

This approach has already made Richard's small-ball whirlwind tactics incomplete, so it is destined to be a temporary change.

The Raptors' home stadium is called the Air Canada Center Coliseum, if Vince Carter is a glider, then this arena really lives up to its name, the game starts at 7 o'clock in the evening, and half an hour before the game starts, the arena is full, which makes Richard a little envious of the Raptors' ball market, but Richard also understands that the Raptors' such a hot ball market actually reflects the appeal of a superstar.

If the Raptors didn't have Vince Carter, would their attendance still be so high? Apparently not! So a superstar is very important to a team, a visual example is the Lakers before Richard crossed, Ren Kobe Bryant is too old to play, and there are still countless fans who go to the Lakers' home court to watch Kobe play every game.

The role of a superstar is very large, so Richard is desperate to get a superstar, but for this Warriors, if they want to get a superstar, they have to wait until 2002, that is, next season, at least after the end of this season, Richard can't find a superstar player.

The game started quickly, and as soon as the opening Vince Carter gave the incoming Warriors a slap to Ma Wei, a quick break after getting the ball, and a violent dunk on Eric Dampier's head! It's a small warm-up for the opening.

Richard's face was a little unpleasant, and when he came to the away stadium, there were no home fans behind him yelling at him to get him off the dugout, but he was still not looking good because of the dunk that Vince Carter had just made, because of Larry Hughes's performance.

It seems that the compromise made by Richard still can't get Larry Hughes back to his form, and in the defense just now, Larry Hughes just stretched out his hand in the face of Vince Carter's breakthrough, which is really a bit perfunctory. However, Richard couldn't call a timeout at the beginning, so he could only shout on the sidelines with a black face to tell Larry Hughes to pay attention to defense!

"Larry, watch the defense! Watch your defense! Don't let your opponent get such a chance! ”

Lee realized that even if the team can't win, it doesn't mean that the team can play casually, at least try their best to win, and what if they win? What if the Raptors are in poor shape today?

But then, Richard knew that this kind of argument was a bit ridiculous, the Raptors' strength was strong, and this kind of strength was all-round. After being reminded by Richard, Larry Hughes also corrected his attitude, although he still has a grudge against Richard, but Richard handed over the ball to him in this game, it can be said that he got the treatment of a superstar, in this case, he will definitely listen to the head coach.

So the next defense is much more serious, but Vince Carter is Vince Carter, no matter how serious Larry Hughes is, he can't prevent him, all kinds of breakaway dunks, three-pointers and air catches make the Air Canada Center hot, and the huge cheers on the sidelines almost never stop.

In the face of Antonio Davis, Eric Dampier's performance was also very struggling, in the last game Eric Dampier was still qualified to defend the Warriors' interior line, and in this game, in the face of Vince Carter's rage, as well as Antonio Davis's all-round suppression, Eric Dampierre was almost exploded at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

Mark Jackson, the old point guard on the outside, also teased Bob Sula between applause, and passed good balls for Vince Carter and Antonio Davis several times, and the Raptors slowly led the Warriors under the outbreak of Vince Carter and Antonio Davis.

Antonio Davis was named to the Eastern Conference All-Star team this season, perhaps partly because of Vince Carter, but this interior muscle. The Stick has played really well this season, and in this era of scarcity of centers, Antonio Davis, who can average 14 points and 10 rebounds per game, can be regarded as an All-Star center with both offense and defense.

The Raptors blossomed inside and outside, but only Antoine Jamison was still stable on the Warriors' side, Jamison scored 29 points and 8 rebounds on 11-of-25 shooting in the last game, and performed well, Richard's tactics fit Jamison's style of play very well, this game, it was still Antoine Jamison, who continued to shoot in the high post jumper to help the Warriors bite the point difference, but even so, the Warriors still trailed by 16 points at halftime.

These 16 points are the difference in strength, so Richard didn't say anything at halftime, unlike the last game lost to the Grizzlies, Larry Hughes's state in this game is also normal, and Richard's adjustments are more timely and accurate, it can only be said that Vince Carter and the Raptors are too strong, with the strength of the Warriors, they really can't resist.

In the second half, Vince Carter continued to wreak havoc on the Warriors' basket, and Richard could only watch depressedly, he had not set up any defensive tactics and systems for the Warriors, and now the Warriors' defense is very bad, and they can only rely on their single defense, and Larry Hughes can't prevent Vince Carter, so this game is like this.

"By the way, Del, I asked the management to help contact Kiessmart and Cortlambis, is there any news?" Richard took the tactical board to write and draw, then suddenly looked up and asked Del Nigro.

Del Nigro was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Richard mentioned this stubble in the game, but he still shook his head, and then said: "There is no final result yet, but it has been contacted, the situation does not seem to be very good, Kithsmart said that he will not come until the end of the season, and Cortlanbiis thinks that he does not need to come to the Warriors as an assistant coach, but Chris (Mullin) is still talking to them." ”

The situation is not very good, Richard also thought about it, Kith Smart Richard didn't have much hope, after all, Smart's job is the head coach of the CBA league, and he obviously can't just leave his team to serve in the NBA. As for Cortlambis, Richard originally just took advantage of the psychology that Cortlambis might be more willing to be a coach to let Chris Mullin contact him to try, and now that Cortlambis has made such a response, perhaps the possibility of success is very small.

Why don't you contact Frank Vogel directly? Richard suddenly had the idea to contact Frank Vogel, which would be beneficial compared to the first two.

First of all, Frank Vogel now works in the NCAA, and the position is only a nominal video analyst, and if Richard lures him into the position of assistant coach, Frank Vogel will quickly agree.

The second coach that Frank Vogel is under is Rick Pitino, an NCAA coach who specializes in tuning. Teaching a three-point team, his bomb three-point tactics are similar to Richard's Warriors in type, and more importantly, the head coach that Frank Vogel is now following is Tabby Smith, who is a famous defensive master in the NCAA, maybe Frank Vogel is still a coach who is both offensive and defensive, maybe Frank Vogel has got some true passes from Tabby Smith.

And the current Warriors may really need a rudimentary defensive tactic, which Richard is not good at.

Although Richard in the fan era also knew about defensive strongmen like Tom Thibodeau, and also knew the chain defense that Thibodeau was famous for, he didn't do any research, and the fans' focus would only be on offense, so Richard has always focused on offense, Jerry Sloan's blocking, D'Antoni's running and shooting, Phil Jackson's triangle offense, and Princeton, who watched the most because of the Rockets.

It is precisely because of this that Richard can design a set of small-ball whirlwind tactics for the Warriors, and defense is not what Richard is good at, maybe Richard can come up with a few sets of co-defense tactics, but to build a defensive system, Richard can't do it, so Richard needs help now, then Frank Vogel has become a better choice.

Richard slapped his thigh, and he decided that whether Kiessmart and Cortlambis, whether or not they could come, he would contact Frank Vogel directly.
