Chapter 143: Change of Formation
Zheng Ke then scored the highest score since the NBA season, and suddenly increased his average points per game to 25.8 points, from the twelfth on the scoring list, to the fifth on the scoring list, and in front of him are Wade, James, Kobe and Nowitzki.
The heat of this big discussion has lasted for a long time, and it is really not easy to do it in this league where there may be people killing every day, there may be a comeback every day, and there is a possibility of setting records every day.
For this reason, Glenn, the owner of the Timberwolves, smiled, and his team suddenly went from an unnoticed fish belly to an upstart in the limelight, and of course, more and more advertisers and media contacted him, and he has even seen countless dollars slowly flying towards him.
Glenn is not a stingy person, as a businessman, an investor, he knows very well how these profits come from and who creates them for him. That's right, it's Zheng Ke, so after the Olympics ended this summer, it was only after the Olympics this summer that Jefferson went out and set Zheng Ke as the core. In order to curry favor with Zheng Ke, he spent a lot of money and began to renovate the target center. Many places, including locker rooms, training rooms, and recovery rooms, have been renovated at a cost.
Just when the target center was in full swing to carry out the decoration activity of the ball room, the eastern 76ers came to challenge!
The 76ers are still the same, ranked 10 to 12 in the Eastern Conference, and Iguodala, who has long had a big hope, played the highest season of his career last year, averaging 19.9 points per game! So, while the 76ers have a tepid record, the team's management still has hope because they have an all-around small forward, Andre Iguodala
By the time Whitman arrived at the arena in the afternoon, several of the Timberwolves' players had already started doing some workouts, and he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. The atmosphere of the Timberwolves team is indeed in the upper reaches of the league, there are no old fritters in the team, there are no thorns, and the most active Randy Foye is actually a good baby.
"Good afternoon, Coach!" When Whitman came in, it caught the attention of the players, and everyone greeted Whitman one after another.
"Hello, good spirits, boys!" Whitman smiled with satisfaction and nodded in response.
Whitman looked at it, and there were two groups on the court, engaged in a 3-on-3 match, Zheng Ke, Lowry, and Love against Brewer, Foye and Smith.
Zheng Ke's physical condition is too good, when it is 3 against 3, the court space is extremely wide, giving Zheng Ke a place to rush left and right, Zheng Ke plays very easily, but from Whitman's point of view, Zheng Ke's dribble layup seems to be a little awkward?
Whitman took a closer look and finally understood the reason, it turned out that Zheng Ke was actually practicing his left hand, breaking through with his left hand, changing direction with his left hand, and even shooting with his left hand!
"What a nice lad!" Whitman was relieved.
There are very few players in the league who are as willing to learn new skills as Zheng Ke, and most players become millionaires, or after becoming multimillionaires, they focus on other aspects and do not pursue a higher level of competition. The ones who can really become superstars are still those players who like to learn and like to constantly surpass themselves.
Zheng Ke would be happy if he knew Whitman thought so, in fact, Zheng Ke is not that great, and learning new skills is forced out. With the help of this system, Zheng Ke has a perverted physicality and an excellent shooting touch, but there is no other offensive jishu. His offensive methods still seem to be relatively simple, except for the three-point line dry, breakthrough layups or dunks, there is only one pull-up jump shot left.
Entering Debaoshan empty-handed is not his Zheng Ke's style, so Zheng Ke has been learning other offensive jishu, usually watching some videos of offensive masters in NBA history, learning their basketball jishu, this left-handed training method, I heard that many stars in the NBA have used it, and the effect is not bad, Zheng Ke used it, but he didn't expect to be considered by Whitman that Zheng Ke's ideological consciousness is quite high
"Alright, boys, pause!" Whitman watched for a while, raised his wrist to check the time, then walked into the arena to stop their 3-on-3 confrontation practice, and called for the players who were doing other training sessions to come over.
"First of all, welcome back to Greg!" Whitman did not forget the strong man who came back from the fire line when the Timberwolves were in a crisis now, and took the lead in applauding.
“xiexie,xiexie!” Smith chuckled and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Everyone should already know the team they played against in the evening, the star of their team is Andre Iguodala, a strong and well-rounded number three, but you don't have to worry about it, someone will deal with him." Whitman was in a good mood, and even made a joke and winked at Zheng Ke.
Everyone laughed, and they all turned their heads to look at Zheng Ke, making Zheng Ke embarrassed.
"The 76ers are an outside-based team, and Andre Miller, the brains of the team, is a veteran, and he has a good chance of controlling the game. But you don't have to worry about this, after all, we have a Chauncy that is obviously not inferior to him. ”
There was another burst of laughter, and then Whitman continued to analyze: "However, the 76ers' recent swingman Thaddeus Young has made a bit of a splash, and I estimate that Maurice Cheeks will put him in the starting lineup, so Iguodala is likely to be put in the shooting guard position, so their starting lineup will become Miller, Iguodala, Young, Elton Brandon, and Hellam Porter." ”
'In that case, I think we need to change the starting line-up a little bit at the moment.
Hearing the coach say this, some players' faces suddenly changed, and some players' eyes lit up, although it was only a temporary change in the starting lineup, but there are still few examples of counterattacks in the NBA from being a starter?
Seeing the players' ears pricked up, Whitman smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was still more serious, and said: "Point guard, Chauncey, scoring guard Zheng Ke, small forward"
When Whitman said that the shooting guard Zheng Ke, Fuye lowered his head in frustration, he knew that he would not be a starter in this game, Zheng Ke saw this, and patted his ass as a sign of encouragement.
"Small forward, Corey Brewer!"
"Yay death!" Brewer was overjoyed, and a smile suddenly bloomed on his face. It's hard to be the No. 7 show last year, and Zheng Ke belongs to the same team, Zheng Ke always gets flowers and applause, but he is always blamed by unkind fans, from the beginning of the unconvinced, to the later discouragement, now he has regained confidence, and the accurate three-point shot he practiced in the summer is his biggest survival guarantee today.
"Power forward Greg Smith!"
"What?" Smith didn't expect that he had just come back and received the coach's biggest gift, starting, which was a dream he didn't do once last season, and he didn't expect such a good thing to come back from injury, for a while, he didn't know what to say, he stood there blankly, and didn't know what to think.
And Lefu on his side lowered his head, and the coach finally couldn't stand his defense?
Whitman saw the stunned Smith, in fact, he was also worried about this arrangement, he said warningly: "Greg, don't let me down, Blanton is about the same height as you, but he has an amazing arm span, your biggest task in this game is to strangle him, if you can do this, I think I will be happy." ”
"Guaranteed mission, sir!" Smith was so excited that he replied loudly and gave a military salute, looking very excited.
"Center, Kevin Love!"
Whitman was frequently unexpected today, Lefu was not kicked out of the starter, but put in the center position, he raised his head in disbelief, his heart was full of joy, it was really too fast to land in life.
"Kevin," Whitman said earnestly, "I know you're not good defensively, but it's not a day or two to practice haode, 76ers center Durham Porter is a defensive center, his offensive ability is very poor, your task in this game is not to kill him, but to grab every rebound." I'm sure you're as good as him, so don't let me down."
"Of course, Coach!" As soon as he heard that it was not to defend, but to grab rebounds, Lefu suddenly grinned happily, grabbing rebounds was originally his favorite thing to do, not to mention that it was his specialty, Lefu thought happily, if I can finish Daim Porter on the rebound, my position in the coach's heart should be a little stronger, right?
