The strongest bishop in the NBA
Chapter 71
Chapter 71 Talk
The Wizards are crazy.
After several rounds of preseason games, many teams have this feeling.
Wang Xiao used a lot of random changes in the game, and almost every player has combined and partnered with other players.
After several games, almost no player in the Wizards team can play more than 20 minutes, and even score very close.
Many times, some teams can't help but wonder, is the team they played against in the first half and the second half really the same team?Why is the style so different.
Not to mention these teams, even the Wizards were baffled by Wang Xiao's manipulation.
Although the preseason team's winning percentage is quite good, and each player has a lot of playing time to exercise.
But this is not all good.
No matter everything, we must distinguish between primary and secondary, and the same is true on the court.
The regular season will start immediately after the preseason, but now, even the Wizards players don't know which players the head coach wants to use as the team's starting main force in the new season.
What exactly is Wang Xiao doing?
"The inexplicable lineup. As the regular season approaches, Wang Xiao seems completely flustered. He doesn't seem to understand the difference between the NBA and the NCAA." A famous basketball commentator commented on Wang Xiao in a sports program: " He doesn’t even seem to know who the main core of the team will be around. How can a team have no core? Even a team-oriented coach like Popovich will also have a tactical core.”
Of course Wang Xiao knew that a team must have a tactical core.
In fact, at the draft meeting, he had already identified the core players of the team, but there are many players with potential in the team. As a traverser, Wang Xiao has the advantage of foresight, knowing that these players can play their own worth.
But this does not mean that they have such abilities when they first entered the league. Many players have grown up in the NBA through hard training and some opportunities to hone on the court.
Wang Xiao wants to give them more opportunities to express himself, but he also understands that if the team's main lineup is not determined in the preseason, it will be very detrimental to the regular season, so he has already made a decision
"Coach, are you looking for me?"
The head coach's office door was pushed open, and Curry walked slowly into the office.
"That's right, sit down." Wang Xiao signaled Curry to sit down, and asked casually, "How do you feel about these preseason games?"
"It feels pretty good. The NBA and NCAA are indeed different. They are more professional and more confrontational," Curry said, sitting on the sofa opposite Wang Xiao.
In August, Wang Xiao assisted Curry in special training for nearly a month, and the two got to know each other a lot. Although they were called to the office alone, Curry obviously did not show any restraint or nervousness.
"This is just a few preseason games, and the intensity of the regular season is much greater than this." Wang Xiao shook his head and said: "The opponents in the preseason are mostly focused on running-in the lineup and examining the players' status. Every game is different, and each team will arrange targeted defensive tactics based on the opponent's technical characteristics."
"For example, if I am your opponent, then in the game against you, I will definitely guard against your three-point shooting, deliberately create opportunities to put you inside, and then double-team you with the center to force you to make mistakes."
Curry nodded thoughtfully.
"I called you here mainly for one thing." Wang Xiao tapped his finger on the table, "Do you remember what I said during training?"
Curry was slightly taken aback, and before he could respond, Wang Xiao said again: "It's about the number of three-point shots. In these preseason games, your number of three-point shots has not reached the standard."
"Uh..." Curry looked confused.
To be honest, when he was on the court, he thought of Wang Xiao's request, but after thinking about it, he didn't dare to do so, because Wang Xiao's tone was too joking.
At least 10 three-pointers in a game?He is just a rookie player, and there are big guys like Jamison Butler on the team.
The coach only said something during the previous training, and did not make arrangements before the subsequent games. No matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to mess around.
"I know you have concerns, so I called you to the office this time mainly to notify you formally." Wang Xiao smiled. "This season, I want you to be the number one scoring point in the team. You can have unlimited shooting rights, but the premise is to do what I asked before."
Score first!Unlimited shot rights!
Curry's heart skipped a beat.
No professional player would be indifferent in such a situation, and neither could Curry.
The right to shoot represents the number of points scored, and the level of the score means a player's status and worth.
Unlimited shot rights, this is the right of superstars in the league, like Kobe, James, Wade, they all have unlimited shot rights.
Curry did not expect that he, a rookie with the sixth overall pick, did not even play an NBA game, and got the unlimited shooting rights promised by the head coach?!!
Although his unlimited shot rights have a proviso-at least 10 three-pointers per game, and the shooting percentage cannot be lower than 38%.
Seeing that Curry was in a daze as if he didn't know what to say, Wang Xiao smiled, shook his head and said, "Get ready, I want to see your wonderful performance in the next game."
After Curry left, Wang Xiao held his chin with one hand, thinking in his heart.
There is still a big gap between the current Curry and the future Curry who will promote the change of the entire league's style of play, but with the training bonus of the training system, he should be able to improve and grow quickly.
As for another future superstar of the team, James Harden, Wang Xiao also has plans.
Not long after, Harden also came to Wang Xiao's office.
And Wang Xiao's first sentence made Harden stunned.
"James, I want you to play as a substitute in the new season."
Substitute?
Harden opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Whether it is the summer league or the preseason, he has always been the main player in the team. His performance is the best at the position of shooting guard. Both other players in the team and Harden himself think that he will definitely Debut as a starter in the new season.
But now, the head coach is actually planning to let him play as a substitute. It would be a lie to say that he is not disappointed.
But before Harden made a statement, Wang Xiao said first: "Don't worry, you listen to me first. Although you are a substitute, you play a very important role in my tactical system. I can promise you that your average The playing time will never be less than 30 minutes, and the ball will be in your hands."
