Chapter 7 Character Accumulation

The current Eagles can only be said to have a heart higher than the sky and a life thinner than paper.

Before the start of the game, he traded his first-round No. 3 pick for Shelif Raheem of the Vancouver Grizzlies, who is an offensive interior player and a player of the 96 golden generation, and the No. 3 pick of the year. The center who averages 20+8 per game is still very talented, and he is also a strong interior player, this is a real player who has played step by step, although he has not made the playoffs before......

With the current block king Theo Ratliffe, a high-quality interior defender, it can be regarded as a good interior offensive and defensive combination, plus the current Eagle King Jason Terry, it still looks like he has strength...... But those who watch the game at this point know what kind of unlucky team the Eagles are......

That's right, the Hawks' rotation lineup on the guard line, plus the bench on the front line is really bad, and the Hawks who are so well matched on the inside also have the Bulls' super sixth man Kukoc and the standard blue-collar Muhammad on the bench...... This is a person who has played in the NBA for a long time, from 98 to 15 years, don't underestimate this number, as an interior blue-collar player, can play for more than 15 years, or as an important backup, this is already very rare.

But compared to the inside line, I don't know what to say about the outside line.

In a word, it can sum up their strength, two outside mainstays plus a significant rotation lineup, the three of them played the best year of their careers, and the average points of the three combined seasons were only about 18 points......

Kwame Brown was very happy against such an Hawks team because he grabbed 12 rebounds, seven blocks and 11 points today...... Ratliff didn't give it for nothing, if it weren't for Gong Feng's passing in place, and Ratliff underestimated him a little, it would not be easy to score a double.

Of course, this is in the case that Kwame Brown did not take the initiative to attack, because in this game, Jordan broke out smallly, playing 34 minutes and cutting 31 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists, Hamilton, as the biggest beneficiary, also scored 20 points, Gong Feng shot 5 of 12, and cut 11 points without free throws, but there were still 12 assists.

Then the Wizards returned to their home court to face the 76ers who were out of Iverson...... Although Larry Brown's defensive system is still there, you can't stop the Wizards' outside feel hot, Hamilton and Jordan once again both scored 20 points, Gong Feng started the journey of brushing assists, scoring 11 points and 16 assists in the game, and Kwame also scored a double-double of 11 points and 10 rebounds.

The process of defeating the 76ers is not smooth sailing, the 76ers, who lack people on the outside, do not save face for the Wizards on the inside, in the face of Mutombo's inside, Kwame is desperate to score and rebound doubles, and Kwame in this game showed his shooting for the first time...... Although not in the middle.

The teenagers, who had just won their first home game, took on a real challenge for the first time, facing back-to-back challenges from Starkerhouse at the Pistons' terrifying home court...... Please don't equate the Pistons of the Larry Brown era with the present, the two teams have nothing in common except Ben Wallace.

There is a way to spend character if you have character, which also means to save character. In this game, the Wizards have come to the time to accumulate character for themselves.

Jordan shot 2 of 10 in the half, Hamilton shot 1 of 12, and Gong Feng shot 2 of 7 was relatively accurate, and the Wizards trailed the Pistons by 20 points at halftime...... But if it weren't for Tyrone Lue's breakthrough, the Wizards would have lost more, and of course, if it weren't for that, Old Man Joe wouldn't have rested.

"Michael, if you're tired, take a break, we'll admit this game." Here's what Collins whispered to Jordan at halftime.

Jordan didn't squeak in agreement, but he didn't object to it, but to preserve Jordan's physical strength and win the games he deserved, which was the goal that the two set before the start of the season.

"Stackhouse went crazy in this game, damn it, the worst three-point shot had a 50 percent shooting rate, which is not a problem, you and Hamilton only scored 10 points in the half, and this game has to go on like this." Of course, Collins couldn't say these words face to face, it was just from his heart.

Stark House was once known as one of Jordan's heirs, don't say anything Only Kobe Bryant wants to beat Jordan head-on, as long as he is called Jordan's successor by the media at the time, there is no one who is not arrogant and has bad physical fitness.

Back-to-back games are already very difficult, Jordan is a god, he is also a god of age, plus the last game due to the good feel, the playing time was close to 37 minutes, which is also a burden for the old man!

But if you question the old man at this point, you just wait to be scolded, Collins, as the old coach who brought Jordan out back then, it is impossible not to know this, but seeing that Jordan was a little short of breath, Collins could only swallow the words and turn his head to look at the others.

Kwame was a little tired, competing with Ben Wallace on the inside, if he wasn't tired, he would really be a veritable little monster, but Gong Feng's performance was a little surprising to Collins, because Gong Feng didn't show the slightest tiredness now......

You must know that as a teenager who has just turned 19, even if you have played in the NCAA for 6 years, as a yellow race, you are not a physical talent, right!

Yes, of course this will be the case under normal circumstances, but as a guy who can succeed in the NCAA, Gong Feng certainly has his own place that is different from ordinary people, the so-called hobby of basketball, the so-called pursuit of basketball is only the most basic, the world has a hobby for basketball, and it can be said that there is a desperate one, of course Gong Feng will have his own strengths, the first one must be the feel of shooting, the second is the natural overall situation, that is, the bonus talent that a few people remember, and the third one is physical strength......

Gong Feng's six years at Duke, especially at the beginning, when Coach K gave him the opportunity to start practicing with the team, and in the first three years, when he didn't even enter the team's squad, Gong Feng did two things every day in the past three years, shooting and jogging.

In the past six years, it has been uninterrupted, especially at home very close to the stadium, Gongfeng has been running to the stadium, even when there is hard training......

Although Collins was surprised by Gong Feng's performance, it didn't mean that he would ask about specific matters, "Tyrone Lue, you will attack with the ball after you go on the court, break through to the inside, and when you are defending, you have to pay attention to the direction of Kwame." ”

"Kwame, you have to pay attention to passing the ball, none of these Pistons players except Ben Yi are defensive masters, and they can even be said to be masters of chaos, once Tyrone Lue's breakthrough is blocked, you have to be ready to receive it, pass the ball to the outside at any time, you have to learn to trust your teammates."

Kwamei nodded solemnly.

"Ben started as a defensive insider, naturally there are places for his success, whether it is tough, bounce, or rebounding intuition, there is a place for you to learn, but you don't have the capital to defeat him, think about your skills, think about the difference between you and him, once you think about it, it is your progress."

Kwame didn't speak, but began to think seriously.

"Gong Feng, as the organization of the team, you have to assist the two of them well, stand in a good position yourself, let your teammates see your position, and don't think the same as you."

"Hamilton, you don't shoot from the outside, save your energy in the second half, I want you to be a pitcher on the weak side, you don't need to dribble, as long as you take every shot, when there's no space, pass the ball to our guards. Nesby, I need you to open up the space, don't hesitate to have the chance. ”

Collins as a coach, in fact, is a bit of a failure, as a training player communication, Collins is very in place, but also the luck of all rookies, but in terms of adaptability alone, Collins will be worse, his tactics say a thousand things and ten thousand, are players who believe in themselves from beginning to end, let players rely on their own ability to play, as a tactical exchange, this tactic is a proof.
