NBA: Starting with $20 billion, buying the Knicks

Chapter 130 Team Locker Room, Daddario
Chapter 130: Team locker room, Daddario

"call!"

Nets head coach Lawrence Frank signaled for calm.

But he himself couldn't calm down. Yi, who played like a softie in the summer league, even though he just started after the Knicks, his mental outlook is different.

The large LED screen replays the Knicks' wonderful performances in these two rounds in real time, and Sean Marks shakes his eyebrows at D'Antoni next to him:

"How? If it were Jerome, he wouldn't be able to play such a good offensive and defensive transition."

Mustache shouted to the fans behind: "Are you still questioning the boss's decision??"

"Stop questioning, we love YI, the donut man rolls the ball!"

"Good deal, boss!"

Daddario shouted with both hands: "The Great Wall of China is powerful! The two heroes of Turkey are also strong!"

"Classic depression? Social phobia?? No, I'm playing dead!! I've wanted to trade this YI for a long time!"

"Yeah, there's a reason to change teams every year, just look at YAO, how loyal they are!"

As I was talking, Lopez on the Nets' side of the basket singles Okur and then turned around and Turk Drew came and went, pressing Courtney Lee and Lopez before Okur came over. Fill up Okur's shooting space at the top arc.

Then turn around and pass the ball with both hands to Okur who followed up.

Okur bent his bow and arrow from outside the three-point line, and the big center made a three-point shot.

stable!
You get 2 points on my head, and I will give you 3 points directly! ! !
Jiang Shuying and others were bouncing up and down in the stands, and Ma Xun and other employees all stood up to watch, which was quite a sight.

Liu Yan:

"The star players are different. To be sure, Yi Jianlian is more violent than imagined. This team has a new look. You won't doubt it, boss."

"It's still early, it's just started."

"Yeah, by the way, boss, Curry and Harden, who you like, don't seem to score much in the first quarter!"

"But it's not invisible either."

Jiang Chao rested his chin and looked at it with relish. His spring theory is still broad.

Although Coeha didn't score in the first quarter, all assists were recorded, and as a rookie, it's good that he didn't make mistakes in executing tactics, and they all had 0 turnovers.

Both made 1 shot, but missed.

And Clifford's training is still okay, these two people are the first to be blue-collar workers, biting the opponent's main back line.

As for the offense, Jiang Chao has nothing to worry about these two scoring champions. First find out how they feel about the game, and play with the big brothers for a while. After finding the feeling in the third and fourth quarters, they will be able to kill the enemy with plenty of energy!
The main reason is that the opponent is also a bit weak. Devin Harris just said that he may be a star player in the Mavericks system, but he can't be a big brother in the Nets, and he has no effort to connect the teams.

The first quarter ends.

The Knicks led the Nets by 28 points at 18:10.

The Knicks scored a total of 17 points from the inside, the UAE and Okur teamed up to score 15 points, Okur 9 points, the UAE made 6 of 3 points and 3 shots, and got 4 rebounds. It is estimated that there will be less time in the second quarter It's one o'clock.

"I guess... it's because of the shoes?"

"The shoes have to be returned!"

"One thing to say, apart from the performance of the players, the quality of the shoes is still OK..."

In the first quarter, the two lottery picks started with zero eggs. It was not expected by everyone, and some people blamed it on the sneakers on the soles of their feet.

Instead, Danny Green, a substitute who plays the 3D concept, made a three-pointer himself, which broke the Knicks rookie spot this year.

It has to be Huang Ama!
He was well trained by the young coach. On the offensive end, he never dribbles. He just defends and catches and shoots. Moreover, he has a good personality. He graduated from a famous school. He didn't say that he must have possession of the ball. , A firm foothold is the first.

In the second quarter, the young marshal started to get angry. After taking too much lead, he sent all the substitutes. He said it was all substitutes, but in fact, there was no one who could pass the ball.

Guard Larry Hughes + Gallinelli + big Q + Ibaka + David Lee.

The Nets here are particularly concerned about their first game. Harris obviously has a feeling that he wants to make a name for Madison. Use his experience in the finals to attack the inside to score points.

Ibaka+David Lee is still a little short, and several balls were slipped in by the Nets' little guy because of poor communication.

At halftime, with Harris and Alston taking turns leading the team, the Nets tied the score 48:48.

Lawrence Frank only used Lopez to face up after Yi came on the field. For that matter, Yi Jianlian also succeeded in a back kick, and the impact of the big Q rushed into the arms of his old teammate Jerome like hitting a sandbag. , he was just waiting for the big Q to hit him.

Explain that if you seize the opportunity, you will be black:

"It can be clearly felt that the Knicks have no scoring players on the bench. They don't have an impact player like Nate Robinson, and they are still weak with a few second-round picks."

"Yes, what's the use of the new boss' six backs?? Willfulness will pay the price."

But in fact, real Knicks fans don't think so.

In the second quarter, most of the old players were used. Tim Thomas and Larry Hughes both played for 8 minutes.

This seems to be the young coach telling the fans with practical actions, can the old Knicks work together? ?Mud will still be mud.

I've given you the ball and time, but you can't play well. Big Q and Larry Hughes are both very good players.

Larry Hughes is the king of steals, the core of the ball, and the defense of the three-pointer, and he was the player named by the Cavaliers later.

Big Q was previously rotated with Chandler. He is a good-sized forward with fast speed and good stature. He can also swing to the power forward.

Tim Thomas is the Knicks' only uninjured meat shield insider. He is short, but the frame is not weak, and his defense is a headache for the opponent.

Needless to say, David Lee, the jumper, the Knicks' thigh last year, but they almost played their own way on the court. To play tactics, it is difficult to get used to this intensity, and it became a single before the end of 24 seconds.

After all, Gallinelli is just learning Turk Drew, and even the old fan Spike Lee admits that the old Knicks lineup is really not good:

"Don't slander them! This group of people on the TV station is really good. With the addition of Harrington and Nate, this group will be better?? Isn't it just adding two players who can play singles?"

However, Dolan's attack on Jiang Chao on the TV station seems to make sense now.

Regardless of the performance of the old lineup players he brought.

Where are Jiang Chao's two favorite lotteries? ? ?

These two have an annual salary of more than 300 million rookies and an endorsement contract of 1000 million. 5 points in the first half? ?

Harden had a two-plus-one layup that hit the rebound, and Curry steals a one-stop layup with quick eyesight and quick hands. Does it look like this?

The offensive talent shown in the NCAA is not at all, and the defensive performance is not even as good as the second-round pick Beverly.

So Dolan bit Jiang Chao's eyes and didn't do much to divide the pressure for himself. Otherwise, the hosts of these two pens kept saying that the lineup was not good. , David Lee and Gallinelli are the people he personally wants, and Larry Hughes and Big Q are all bought by him with a lot of money. These commentators want to lick him, the TV director, and it's not the right time to lick him.

A more neutral ESPN editor posted an instant message:

"At the end of the halftime game, the Knicks' rookies did not perform well, and the new aid performed well. It is worthy of the SS-level trade and the B+ trade. The three international players who were traded still showed their background."

Obviously, you can say that Jiang Chao's vision is not good, but his trading ability is not bad, but he can gossip about everything. Trading is a matter of Sean Marks, and the credit goes to Sean Marks.

The combination of the two heroes in Turkey is not strong!
And Yi Jianlian went to the world's largest Chinatown, he felt at home, and it was reasonable to explode!

Anyway, the current direction of public opinion is still: progress is a personal matter for players.

It was Jiang Chao who took the blame. He spent a lot of money on the two lottery games, and his performance was not as good as a bunch of rookie guards next door.

On the Chaoshen forum, Mr. Yang posted a crazy reply:
"Didn't Sean Max be recruited by Jiang Chao??? In the first half, it was obvious that the ball was not in the hands of rookies like Summer United. Didn't you all see this?"

……

In the vip room, Jiang Chao naturally heard Dolan and others criticize Coeha and him after halftime on TV.

It was also unexpected that he could name the boss.

Liu Yan looked worriedly at the man beside her:

"Maybe because your sideline business has shaken the interests of some people, it feels like they have hatred against you."

Jiang Chao smiled and put her in his arms and rubbed her hair:
"It's okay. The young coach should be testing the lineup in the preseason. Xia Lian has seen Curry Harden. He can't use it for no reason. I haven't seen these two attacking with the ball. I'll go to the locker room Take a look at them."

After all, he got up nonchalantly and went to the player channel.

"Okay, don't criticize the players too much. I heard that rookies are prone to depression."

"Pfft~~ Your husband and I seem to be such a fierce person?"

"You are fierce!"

"You are the fierce one, the real one!"

Jiang Chao squeezed his hand restlessly, and after a few days, Liu Yan's bear was obviously more Q-bouncing.

Here Jiang Chao went to the locker room not to blame the coaching staff for slack in the second quarter.

Others may not be able to see it, but he can tell at a glance that the young coach is frantically experimenting with several lineups, like the lineup of the former Knicks. The young coach doesn't really want the fans to see how weak they are, he I also want to prove that the players left behind by Jiang Chao are very strong, and indirectly prove Jiang Chao's vision, but unfortunately things backfired.

Although they were chased for points in the second quarter, the most stable Turk Drew organization, Yi Jianlian and Okur's pick-and-roll tactics were still well-organized.

Sure enough, after communicating with Cole whom he met on the road, the young marshal really thought so.

Why are the rookies so mediocre?

One is that the rookies' offense is not stable yet, let the big brothers take them to show them first, but the big brothers on the bench are a bit stretched, so the score is caught up in the second quarter, and the ball is more in the hands of the old birds. .

The other is that it is not Summer League now, and it takes time to adapt to the confrontation. In their view, giving the ball to rookies at the beginning may make the game ugly, and the opponent is Xiao Lingkuai, an experienced guard.
For the record of the regular season, the team will naturally favor the Turkish duo. Which rookie didn't first experience with the star? The young coach has stricter requirements for Curry and Harden. You have so much playing time. Confrontation You have to seize the opportunities given to you after you come up, and start with the training of low shots.

Take it easy!
Jiang Chao naturally knew that Curry and Harden hadn't played yet. Both of them needed the sense of raising the ball. Maybe Turk Drew didn't organize it, but Curry and Harden didn't organize a few shots, and the feeling of playing was very good. Hard to find.

So when he went to the locker room, he told them a few words, one is not to complain about the possession of the ball, just go all out on the court, and shoot directly when there is an open spot.

The other is communication:
"Mouths are used for talking. The five players on the field need to communicate more. You are a team rather than individuals."

Jiang Chao feels that the Knicks are not doing enough. Maybe it's because of the new faces. Everyone is obviously not familiar with each other on the court. It is more likely that Turk Drew and the young coach are calling for someone to pull them out, and the tactics are also the same. Simple pick and roll initiation.

His smooth offense naturally requires players to play more teamwork.

Ibaka shook his head resentfully.

"Don't touch your head, I'm talking about you. Our team doesn't have many center forwards. When you reach the center forward, don't just focus on helping the defense. You have to call out the people you missed. Can't you just let the wing teammates help you defend? Move your mouth!"

Ibaka quickly put down his hand: "Okay, boss."

He committed 3 fouls alone in the first half. One was that the opponent's inside line was too impactful and the Knicks' inside line was not thick enough.

"Understood the boss!"

"Don't worry, boss!"

"Leave it to us!"

The players in the locker room are obviously not as frustrated as they say outside. There is no such thing as rookie junk trading.

After playing so many training games, no one knows how awesome Curry Harden is than they themselves.

The young marshal's research in the past two months is not for nothing. Everyone is obedient to the young marshal's arrangement and respects Jiang Chao's suggestion. They also know that Jiang Chao's side job needs popularity recently. Although this is a preseason game, But after all, it was the first game of the season at home in Madison Gardens, and it was not good to start black.

Fight for the boss!
Then I saw Curry doing push-ups in front of the locker, Harden riding a spinning bike and looking energetic, and the two were as excited as hyperthyroidism.

"They are?"

Jiang Chao asked the young marshal suspiciously.

"Your policy, in the second half, one person will do one quarter."

"can."

Stephen Curry does glute bridges to maintain muscle strength:
"Boss, I'm going to work harder in the second half!"

"Fuck to death, i-see-you!"

Jiang Chao smiled and left the locker room.

At this point, there is no need to hide and hide. The records of these two rookies will start from this season, so just do it!

It's just that he didn't expect that the young coach would listen to Xia Lian's nonsense and let the rookies work hard in the second half.

interesting.

He began to look forward to it.

……

The second half begins.

In the first half, Jiang Chao inspected the VIP box.

The second half was about getting a feel for what it was like to watch the game from the stands and from the front seats.

He took off his windbreaker, and was wearing an Anta pure white T-shirt and a pair of sky blue jeans that Liu Yan bought for him. He wore an orange version of Curry's generation on his feet and blue sunglasses. He looked like a flamboyant playboy.

Liu Yan also wore a peaked cap and followed, the two of them looked like a couple of students.

But as soon as she stepped into the corridor of the stands, she was bumped into by Jiang Shuying, who had bought a cup of Coke, and she directly pierced through:

"Wow, boss, you guys are too obvious. One person is fine, but two people can see through it at a glance."

Jiang Chao scratched his head in embarrassment when he was told that, indeed, it won't work if they stand together, two good-looking people stand taller than 2.

"Speaking of which, aren't you afraid of the kiss cam segment? I think there was this segment just now, and everyone's kissing was really exciting." As expected of an actor, Jiang Shuying even mentioned the Northeast flavor.

"Ahem, forget it."

Thinking of this, Liu Yan said that she and her little sister Jiang Shuying watched the game together, leaving Jiang Chao aside.

"Okay, I'll go to the back row and have a look."

Jiang Chao didn't force it. After all, this is not a VIP box, so it's inconvenient to do anything. Liu Yan's tall figure is much more conspicuous than him standing in the crowd. After all, there are still very few Asian beauties in this venue.

And there are more fans of his height.

If he really kisses and cams, he is not so open. This belongs to the American culture, and he was completely abandoned after playing a few times in the CBA.

("Kiss Cam" is an interactive game for spectators in NBA games. People will kiss each other, this game is usually performed by fans sitting next to men and women, it is also dubbed by the NBA as catching rape cam!)
The view from the backstage of the stand is good, but the impression is not as strong as the VIP box, but the sense of participation is invincible, because there are big bellies holding beer next to it, and the lively atmosphere is very suitable for bringing the family to watch the game.

At this time, the big screen is showing the audience. It is indeed the place where the stars love to show their faces. The front row is filled with some New York socialites. Si watched the football from the sidelines and paid attention to it. It didn't matter whether they won or lost, they just watched the fun.

Spike Lee and neighbor J-Lo Jennifer Lopez were all sitting in the front row. There were also a few models and singers from New York Fashion Week.

At this time, the camera suddenly swept across a pair of large headlights.

No, he glanced at a beauty that Jiang Chao was familiar with. This was a girl he had seen before, and she was also a young actor who had been following Jiang Chao on social media from the very beginning: Daddario.

"Good guy, it's really big." Jiang Chao compared it, and it seemed to be much bigger than Widow Sister.

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, at this time the widow gave him a call:

"JIANG, are you watching the game? The comments say that you came for a while at the beginning and then disappeared."

"Oh, the first half was in the VIP box."

"What are you doing in the box, you have to sit in the front row and show your face, you are so imposing, you look handsome in front of the camera."

"Do I need to be handsome in front of the camera? By the way, didn't you go to find Luc Besson for an audition? You still have time to call me."

"Isn't it for my little sister? My name is Alexandra Daddario, she's a fan of mine, she's a little actress, she's 23 years old, she's sitting on my season ticket seat, she likes you a lot, Today's goal is to get your autographed photo."

"I understand the truth, why did you introduce her in such detail?" Jiang Chao heard the trick.

Scarlett Johansson: "I'm afraid you will be fascinated by her. She is a girl who I think has a good figure, but you can't touch it!"

"Oh?"

"Her father, the New York State Federal Attorney, the head of the anti-terrorism department, arrested Nate and Marbury. You can have a good relationship with her, but don't mess around."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?? It's too much, I managed to get you the heroine."

"Okay... Actually, it's not impossible, hey, another golden flower."

"Go, go, you're serious, how did your audition for "Super Body" go?"

　Thank you for the 2000 point reward from the other side of the fall.

　　Richmond Li Qi's 1500 point reward!
