Chapter 385 [Infighting!The right time, place and people]

Chapter 385 [Infighting!The right time, place and people]

As the saying goes, a slap doesn't make a sound. If only Kidd has a problem with his own character, Yang Rui's alienation plan will not succeed, but Scott's character also has problems. Both of them are very proud, and the conflict broke out immediately .

In training on the morning of the 22nd, Scott talked about tactics and prepared to give Curry more playing time to play pick-and-rolls. Kidd raised objections.

Scott was immediately angry, and in front of the players, loudly accused Kidd of not playing according to the tactics is the main reason for the game to lose.

Kidd began to discuss tactics with Scott in a good voice, analyzing the pros and cons of tactics, and later found that Scott decided that he should play pick-and-roll with Curry, otherwise it would be wrong and it would not make sense.

Kidd yelled in excitement. "You don't understand tactics at all. It's my fault that you play and lose? You go to coach a team without me, and you can't even make the playoffs!"

At this juncture, infighting within the team is a taboo.Scott is relatively authoritarian in the coaching staff, and the assistant has no right to speak, and no one can stop him from saying things he shouldn't say in time.When the management came forward, the two of them were already blushing and their necks were thick, and they could not reconcile.

Kidd was a complete free agent this summer, and Scott was a brain-dead man, and he was fighting against Kidd at this time.After listening to Yang Rui's evaluation, his brain became so hot that he really thought that his thoughts were right.

If the two had to go one, it would definitely be Scott.No management would have the nerve to give up a star for Scott.If Kidd signs other teams, although he will earn a little less than the Nets, but the Nets will get nothing at all, and they can start rebuilding next season.

In Yang Rui's previous life, the Nets signed a 7-year, $1 million long-term contract with Kidd in the summer.

Owner Lewis Katz will definitely ask the manager to re-sign Kidd because he doesn't want to play anymore and is about to sell the team.Only if Kidd re-signs, this team can sell for a high price.

The Nets have a good record in the past two years, but their commercial value is terrible.They are only separated by a river from the Knicks. The Knicks make a lot of money every year, and they make money at the bottom of the record. The Nets are almost at a loss. Katz has had enough.

The two made a fuss, which strengthened Katz's determination to sell the team.

There is no airtight wall in the world. The quarrel between the two was quickly revealed by the media. The Washington media was the most active, publicizing the infighting of the Nets.

The third battle has not yet started, and the Wizards are already in the right place at the right time, occupying the absolute initiative.

Yang Rui communicated with manager Unseld and asked him to continue to delay the broadcast of Jordan's promotional video. He also asked the staff to add some material, plus some videos of retired celebrities being interviewed after the game. Several people wished Jordan Winning the championship is a good thing to say, and it will be more touching when it is matched in the video.

Unseld complied, but he chatted with friends in private, expressing disdain for Yang Rui's character. "If I were the head coach, I would never do such a thing to sow discord. I would defeat my opponent in an upright manner."

If Yang Rui heard it, he would definitely find it funny, and then said to his friends, "Did you see it? This SB definitely can't be the head coach."

That night, Scott let Curry start, his mood was obviously affected by the outside world, and he planned to fight against the Wizards.

Scott felt that since Jordan praised Curry, perhaps the Wizards were more afraid of Curry's main attack, even if the rebounding was poor.

Jordan is recognized as a real person. In the NBA, he is "a little brother who has something to say."

But people can change, and with people like Yang Rui who like to open their minds, they are most easily affected.Jordan is less affected, Stana and Yang Rui have passed for a few years, and now they look like chrysanthemums.

In fact, Jordan didn't look down on Curry at all. If the fat man had been scolded to death by him in the Wizards, no matter how good the offense was, it would be useless.

Compared with Yang Rui’s previous life, what the Nets changed was the center position. Curry’s comprehensive strength completely overwhelmed Jason Collins, but he was much stronger than defense and Collins had both advantages and disadvantages.

Scott is a coach who leans toward team basketball and defense at heart, and making Curry a starter is a voluntary mistake.

The Wizards used 122 to defend the penalty area, attacked Hamilton and Wesley, and Bell pulled away. Jordan continued to play the power forward to support the pass, and only Boozer was responsible for covering Wesley.

Martin was in charge of defending Jordan, Curry had to save the three-pointer after the screen, and Wesley shot directly after the switch was slow.

Wesley made three 11-pointers and a layup in a single quarter.He attracted the defense, and also assisted Boozer to make two goals and Bell to make a three-pointer from the bottom corner.Wesley played at an exceptional level in a single quarter, scoring 3 points and [-] assists.

Jordan also performed well against Martin, scoring 6 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in a full quarter.

The two led the Wizards to a 34-22 lead in the first quarter.

Curry scored 8 points in a single quarter and performed well, but the team lost points, and he missed people many times.By the time Scott realized that he couldn't defend like this, the score was already behind.

In the second quarter, Curry rested, the Nets defense strengthened, and the Wizards had difficulty scoring.

Wizards also solid defense, no obvious loopholes.The task of preventing pick-and-rolls is handed over to Bell and Wallace, and Stoudemire is responsible for interfering shots and rebounding near the penalty area.Martin singled out Stoudemire twice, and both shots missed the basket.

Stoudemire has a very poor sense of defense when encountering pick-and-rolls.But Stoudemire's physique is stronger than Martin's. He's never afraid of tough opponents, and he's not bad for singles.

The Wizards entered the second half with a 10-point lead. Marshall came on stage and ran with Maggette and Hamilton. Boozer was in charge of side cover and Alston organized in the middle.

There was no screen for Alston, and he was able to protect the basketball with his skillful ball handling.After Boozer gave Hamilton a cover, he also cut from time to time and rushed to the basket with Maggette.

On the defensive end, Boozer can keep Curry outside the penalty area, and he will recognize it if Curry singles out and shoots from a long distance.

The Nets defended well in other positions, but the Nets had a headache with Boozer's move after covering.

Even Kittles couldn't bypass cover every time to catch up to Hamilton.Curry switched a little slower, and Hamilton only needed a second to catch the ball and finish the shot.Curry switched to defending Hamilton, Boozer emptied to catch the ball, and Kittles couldn't stop him from playing hard, with a weight difference of 30 kilograms.

Boozer is not the same as Stoudemire. He doesn't have the fastest speed, but has a terrifying tonnage, skillful footwork, accurate mid-range shooting, and obvious tactical effect.

This type of player is deeply loved by coaches. In Yang Rui's previous life, Boozer was a frequent visitor to the Dream Team. He participated in two Olympic Games and won the gold medal with the team in 2008.He does a better job guarding Curry with his weights.

At the end of the quarter, in order to strengthen the defense, Scott did not dare to send Curry again, and used Martin and Rodgers as a partner to play small-ball tactics.

The partnership between Hamilton and Stoudemire is more exciting, and it is also a tactic of emptying the basket after covering from the side.

There are many people on the Internet in the later generations, Hei Xiaosi, who said that he played with his body, his skills were average, his back-to-back ability was poor, his passing awareness was poor, and he was not comprehensive.But his body is so strong, what technique is he using?He is the legendary "one power over ten guilds", as long as you help him create opportunities for dislocation, it is enough for the other party to suffer.

The Wizards' most tacit partners are Hamilton and Stoudemire, and the two became iron buddies in the team.Regardless of training or competition, when they meet in the gym, they smile, look at each other, and bring their own BGM. (You are the wind, I am the sand, lingering around the world.)

In the last quarter, the two of them cooperated to play the sandstorm transition. The air cuts and the fast mid-range shots were dizzying. A wave of 10-0 expanded their advantage and sealed the victory.

Kidd played pick-and-rolls with Curry and Martin, and they were all blocked by the Wizards. It was very similar to when the Nets were eliminated by the Raptors last year. The Nets role players were lost again.

In the final stage, Kidd was forced to make more shots, making a three-pointer and a mid-range shot. The efficiency was good, but he couldn't recover the score.

108 to 93, the Wizards won another game, with a total score of 2 to 1.
