Chapter 030: I'm sorry, one for each person
Chapter 030 I'm sorry, one for each person
At the start of the second half, the managers of both sides sent their main players in the hope of making a final decision.
The Knicks think we have one of the best defenses in the league, and we're not afraid of any offense. The supersonic speed is aimed at the Knicks' dead end, the players are old, the physical strength is declining quickly, and there is a lack of high-quality firepower points.
Van Gundy doesn't know the problems of his team, the only high-quality firepower is the Knicks' double guns, Houston and Sprewell, but there is too much technical content in this, taking into account their physical distribution, the two are 31 years old and the other are 32 years old, and they can't be as tossed as young people; Considering the run-in of other substitutes, the familiarity of new and old players with each other is too important for the rest of the regular season; To fully exploit the potential of new talents, the lack of manpower is a major problem for the Knicks, and getting young people on the bench is another consideration for Van Gundy. After all, basketball is not a one-man sport, there is a group of people standing behind them.
Through Van Gundy's constant emphasis in the locker room and dedicated shouting from the sidelines, the Knicks constantly beat their own defense, and the SuperSonics can no longer easily complete breakthroughs and projections. Whether it's Crazy Eye Thomas's dirty tactics or Gary Payton's joint defense, it fully shows the Knicks' defensive might. On the contrary, the Knicks used positional warfare and fast fast break to catch the supersonic off guard when the opponent's supersonic offense was unfavorable, and let McMillan call two timeouts in a row in the third quarter to let the supersonic stabilize the situation, but the score was overtaken.
Liang Xiao played 5 minutes in each of the two quarters in the second half, scoring a total of 7 points, half of the first half, only grabbing two rebounds, and almost all of his physical strength was used to score 7 points after halftime, and there was not much energy to contribute to the rest.
At the end of the game, the Knicks finally won with their own nirvana: defense. Liang Xiao played more than 20 minutes and scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. If such data is put in the regular season, it is absolutely powerful, and it is difficult for ordinary people to do it, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has reached the All-Star level, but it is impossible for Liang to laugh until he has so many opportunities during the regular season.
A series of problems such as playing time and number of shots in the regular season will be tilted towards the main team, so that they can make more contributions to the team, and the offense at that time is not a roar from Liang Xiao to get the ball, and even if you have strong projection ability, if you don't follow the coach's intention to play the rhythm of the game, it is estimated that you will sit on the bench.
After the game, there will be reporters coming up for interviews immediately, of course, there is no such opportunity for Liang Xiao, not to mention that the Knicks are playing away, such a favor time will be reserved for the SuperSonics, for their idol glove Gary Payton, and it is also the highest score in this game.
Liang Xiao and Sprewell walked into the player's tunnel with a smile, during which several people standing next to the player's tunnel were whispering about Liang Xiao, saying that this kid is really good, although there is some taste of asking for instructions, but Liang Xiao is very excited in his heart, he knows that if he is not said by two people in this world, it will not be famous.
Back in the locker room, Van Gundy high-fived everyone one by one to celebrate. came to Liang Xiao's side and said, "You don't do very obedient boy, you performed well today, and I look forward to your next performance." ”
Liang Xiao thought in his heart: "Head, if you say I'm good, it's not bad, why don't you be very obedient, am I this impression in your heart?" Although he complained a little about Van Gundy, he was very happy to appreciate his Liang Xiao.
The uniform team that came in later asked Liang Xiao to hurry up and prepare for the post-game press conference, Liang Xiao estimated that there should be nothing to do with himself, and he was slowly packing up his things. Because normally, the manager will give the core of the team to face the questions of reporters.
Unexpectedly, when Liang Xiao was about to stuff his stinky socks into his travel bag, he heard Van Gundy calling him and saying, "Liang Xiao, you will come with me to the press conference later!" ”
"How can it be me, Ratril, such opportunities are not usually reserved for players like you, so what shall I say?" Liang Xiao was a little overwhelmed, firstly, because he was inexperienced, and secondly, he seemed to steal the limelight from others.
"You just say that your little brother is the best in the world." Sprewell seemed to still hold a grudge against Liang Xiao's words on the sidelines, and adjusted Liang Xiao's taste.
"Oh my boy, I'm telling the truth!"
"Don't listen to his nonsense, just remember that we are a team, and you can say whatever you want!" Houston reminded Liang with a smile next to him.
Liang Xiao raised his fist and smashed Sprewell, and then said thank you to Houston.
tidied himself up as quickly as possible and borrowed a formal suit from Sprewell, because Liang Xiao didn't know that he would have such an opportunity, and he didn't have such a preparation at all, and the NBA cheats are that all people must wear formal clothes to the outside world.
Wait until the home coaches and players finish speaking before it's the Knicks' turn.
"Hello, I'm a reporter for the Seattle Post, congratulations on getting such good data today, I want to know, how did you face the offense of Brent Barry and Gary Payton, you should know, like they are long-established figures in the NBA!" The Seattle Post reporter meant that you, a rookie who came out of nowhere, have the qualifications to challenge these celebrities.
"Oh, you mean to face them, I never thought about facing them, I only have the basket in my eyes, the basket is what I have to face, everything else is a floating cloud!" Hearing Liang Xiao's speech, the reporters in the audience all took a sharp breath, thinking that this kid was really rampant.
"Oh, are you saying you can challenge the entire supersound?" Once again, the Seattle Post reporter stood up.
"I'm sorry, one person, I hope everyone has a chance. I'll charge for more, so I'll make an exception and answer your questions for free. I've never thought about challenging the supersonics, and if you asked me to do it, I wouldn't mind, because I have my teammates behind me, and our coach, and I think you'll be happy with my answer! The other party on the other side was aggressive, Liang Xiao shot back.
Then a round of Seattle media came out against Liang Xiao with long knives and short guns, and Liang Xiao also exhausted his eighteen martial arts to parry such a local media.
"Hello, I'm a reporter for the New York Daily News, **ile you're doing really well today, do you have anything to say about your future plans?" Hearing that a reporter from New York finally asked a question, just like seeing his mother's family, Liang Xiaocai became kind and happy, and talked about his future plans one by one.
In the end, Van Gundy praised the supersonic and praised his own team members, and the press conference was over.
