Chapter 153: The Trajectory of Destiny, My Grudge

"Don? Do you have a feeling that Lin's dribbling rhythm is faster and more varied?" D'Antoni asked curiously at his third assistant coach Donaldson during the Knicks training session in the afternoon.

"Is there?" Donaldson rubbed his head, "It seems to be, Lin seems to be faster again? I heard that in addition to extra shooting, he also asked David to practice one-on-one with him recently. The feel of the ball is really good.”

D'Antoni nodded. Lao De's observation was obviously more careful. Lin Yi's improvement was actually hard to see. Only as Lin Yi's opponent could he clearly feel the oppression brought by Lin Yi when he was defending.

Ordinary NBA guards, "Penny" Hardaway can do moves, they can also do it, but why is Hardaway hard to defend?

It is because Hardaway can be used in high-speed confrontation. You must know that meeting and using are two completely different concepts.

This is also the reason why many fringe people in the nba have come to the cba to fly to the sky and escape to the ground, and they are omnipotent. Because the cba's confrontation is weak, those fringe people can give full play to their skills.

In order to observe Lin Yi's subtle progress more carefully, Comrade Old De specially arranged Wilson Chandler to defend Lin Yi in the group confrontation. Chandler's defense is the best in the Knicks; Chandler's defense, although Lin Yi's breakthrough is not as smooth as before, but from Chandler's painful expression, D'Antoni read a signal, that is, under Chandler's defensive strength, Lin Yi can still fight like this!

This kid broke through his own bottleneck?

In the nba, many players will encounter card bottlenecks, and even some talented players may be stuck there all their lives, but some players will play out inexplicably as if they suddenly realized the Tao.

Lao De was very pleased. Sure enough, Lin Yi's potential value was full.

"Don, I think we should really plan for Lin. I want Darko and Lin to play together in the second quarter, and let Lin be the point guard of the second team." D'Antoni said to Donaldson.

During the three consecutive trips in the Western Conference, Lin Yi played as a point guard for the Knicks, but after Louis Williams joined the Knicks, Lin Yi will still return to the center position when leading the second team.

D'Antoni didn't want to waste Lin Yi's organizational talent. Lin Yi's golf quotient is too high, and Lin Yi's calmness. In D'Antoni's eyes, only the stone Buddha in San Antonio can be better.

For some reason, D'Antoni was angry when he thought of Popovich.

Just wait, you have Duncan, and now I have Lin Yi too!

December 12,

On the day of Double 12, Nix came to New Orleans. Sure enough, those barbecue stalls in China were deceptive, and the grilled wings that go to peat...

This is the second time the Knicks have met the Hornets this season. When the two sides met for the first time, the Knicks won at home.

After the start of the new season, the Hornets' winning percentage is less than 50%, and the Hornets' locker room has already spread the news of disharmony between Paul and Scott, the master-student pair.

Many media outlets recalled the story of Scott and Kidd's quarrel. Externally, Scott remained calm, "We will definitely make it to the playoffs, as long as the players implement my tactics seriously, We can definitely get back to the top eight in the West."

It is said that Chris Paul, the star of the Hornets, even thought of missing the training session after learning of Scott's statement.

tactics?

Scott knows tactics?

Paul really wanted to draw some tactics for Scott himself, and tell Scott what tactics are.

Isn't the Hornets just a tactic in which Paul keeps picking and rolling with his teammates, and then Paul singles, Paul picks and rolls, and Paul singles?

This kind of tactics can be drawn by any fan!

Paul has always advised Scott to learn from D'Antoni. In Paul's eyes, the Hornets also have pitchers such as Peja and Thornton, and people say that Paul occupies the ball, but in fact Paul is eager for someone in the Hornets to divide him. possession of the ball.

In Houston in the future, Paul finally experienced the fun of playing and touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals. You know, Paul has a very high golf quotient. He knows where his shortcomings and flaws are. You can't expect a 183 cm It is unscientific for players to attack all the time.

Paul knows that it is difficult to win the championship with Iverson's style of play. His ambition is not just to win the assists. In Paul's view, as long as he can win, it doesn't matter if he sacrifices statistics.

So Paul wants this Hornets to run like the Knicks. David West can shoot and play low. The Hornets have the ability to run and bomb.

However, Scott has always used Okafor's inability to keep up with the running and bombing as an excuse, thinking that the Hornets should still slow down and play positions.

"Chris, your pick-and-roll is unsolvable. As long as we slow down and fight defensively, we will definitely make it to the playoffs." Scott explained to Paul seriously.

Here we go again, and what the hell is defending!

As long as this issue is mentioned every time, Scott will always have various excuses. Okafor can't keep up, so won't he let him play as a substitute?

Paul really wants to ask Scott, is there anything else in your tactics besides the pick-and-roll?

Moreover, Paul felt that the Hornets uniform team was simply sick. He actually traded Tyson Chandler for Okafor, and Scott has always reused Okafor. Doesn't Scott have any ideas of his own?

Darren Collison, selected by the Hornets this year, has great potential. Paul taught Collison some black technology in training. In Paul's view, the Hornets can start both himself and Collison at the same time to speed up the offensive rhythm. Play a conversion attack and force the opponent to run with yourself.

As for defense? Even if Paul is allowed to guard the shooting guard, it is fine. Paul believes in his own defense. He has strength and quick strikes. Ordinary shooting guards really can't beat him.

However, every time Paul raised his opinion, Scott would object in various ways.

"I'm the head coach of this team, Chris!" Scott is a coach who loves to put on airs. He believes that players should obediently listen to the coach.

With Scott's personality, maybe he can coach in college, but he can't do it in the NBA.

Because what the NBA pays attention to is star culture. For a team, the value of the star is definitely higher than the head coach, unless you are Popovich, but here comes the problem, Popovich will not be like Scott , Popovich has high IQ and EQ, and knows how to control people.

Popovich also liked to criticize Parker before, but after knowing Parker's high self-esteem, Popovich changed from scolding to boasting.

D'Antoni will also put on airs, but more, he and the players are more like friends.

Scott originally had nothing in his stomach, and his emotional intelligence was low, but Scott was lucky. He had coached Kidd and Paul before he could achieve certain results.

Before the game between the Knicks and the Hornets started, the team atmosphere of the Hornets had already lost half of the Knicks.

Especially when the two teams were warming up before the game, Chris Paul watched Lin Yi and D'Antoni talking and laughing, and even D'Antoni and Lin Yi were discussing non-stop with a tactical board. Paul was really envious from the bottom of his heart.

if……

If it doesn't work in the Hornets.

What about the Knicks?

A thought like this flashed through Paul's mind.
