Chapter 353 [When I first saw Yao Ming, my mentality changed]

Chapter 353 [When I first saw Yao Ming, my mentality changed]

On December 12, the Wizards defeated the Bucks 3-103 at home.

In the summer, the Bucks sent away the "big dog" Glenn Robinson, the star shooting guard Ray Allen was sidelined due to injury, and the three Musketeers were left with "alien" Sam Cassell.

Without Reed, the Bucks had too few offensive points, starting with a 6-11 record.George Karl isn't far behind himself after driving out bored players.

After this game, the Wizards began to encounter strong teams, losing 4 to 88 in back-to-back away games to the Pistons on the 103th.

老将大前锋克里弗德-罗宾逊三分球4投3中，阿兰-休斯顿三分9投6中, 斯塔克豪斯三分6投4中，替补的琼巴里三分5中2, 杨瑞安排的122联防最怕这种三分抽风的球队。

Alan Houston has become a hot star at the 2 and has been healthy.Jeff Van Gundy used the same way that Yang Rui did when he was in the Knicks. The mid-range shooter has become the three-pointer. The way he runs and catches the ball is difficult to get seriously injured.

On the surface, Houston and Hamilton's overall shooting percentages are similar. In fact, Houston's scoring efficiency is much higher, because he has developed a good habit of back-playing near the restricted area, turning jumpers, or shooting from beyond the three-point line, never shooting. Large mid shot.

Hamilton's most shots are 17-foot jumpers. This season, Yang Rui has no confidence in transforming Hamilton. Forcing him to shoot three-pointers results in a loss of rhythm and a drop in shooting percentage.

The Wizards scored the most with Jordan with 26 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

On the 6th, the Wizards broke the team's biggest upset, losing 86 to 88 away to the underdog Magic.

The Wizards led by 20 points in the first half, but were reversed by the opponent in the second half.In the fourth quarter, the Wizards players were like a collective curse, madly hitting the iron.

乔丹21中7，三分球4中1，罚球6中5，得到20分8篮板2助攻；汉密尔顿18中6，三分球3中1，罚球2中2，得到15分5助攻；马盖蒂11中4，并且只获得两次罚球，得到10分6篮板。

Magic win the home whistle factor, but the Wizards are more critical, because the Magic score not many points, defense is not good.

On the 7th, the Wizards lost back-to-back to the Blazers and suffered a three-game losing streak 85-98.

Seven of the Blazers scored in double figures, and the two legendary Bulls players got a chance to match up. Pippen had the upper hand, scoring 7 of 7 shots, 6 of 2 free throws, and scored 2 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 steals.

乔丹20投8中，罚球2中2，得到18分5篮板3助攻，命中率很低。

The Blazers also used 122 zone defense tactics. The Wizards were most afraid of this, and the outside line was inaccurate.

Back at home on the 10th, the Wizards faced off against the Knicks.

Yao Ming greeted and chatted with Yang Rui when he appeared on the court. Yang Rui couldn't help him now, and eating together may arouse the concern of the Knicks management.He can only advise Yao Ming to lose weight properly, maintain mobility, and usually train for shooting, and wait for opportunities.

Yao Ming weighed 132 kilograms when he first entered the league. The disadvantage is that he lacks muscle content, and his arms are thin and thin.Later, his weight reached 140 kg, which increased the burden on his feet.

Yang Rui felt that the best way for Yao Ming to not get hurt is to lose weight.

You know, Bogut was only 114 kilograms during the Warriors period, which can not only resist people, but also guarantee switching defenses. "Big Z" Ilgauskas is about the same height as Yao Ming, and he was only 120 kilograms at the heaviest, even a heavy insider.After the injury, "Big Z" even reduced his weight to about 110 kilograms, and there was no serious injury after that.

Yao Ming sighed: "If I really lose weight, it will be even more difficult for me to get the chance to play. The coach didn't arrange it that way."

"Leave a call and add my Minion number. You can't listen to the Knicks coaching staff about some things. O'Neal has been resting for more than half a year because of his overweight, and he has a lot of minor injuries. He's a monster. Your physique can't stand it, not to mention you are a yellow race? You lose weight and practice shooting, increase your shooting range, and become a center and small forward swing is the king."

"..." Yao Ming was immediately embarrassed. It was the first time I heard that there was a swing at No. 35.

He knew that Yang Rui was kind, and left the phone very happily. "I'm not good at chatting in English, so I didn't apply for Minions."

"Then use QQ as an agent, you should have this, right?"

"Not only can you speak Chinese, but you can also use QQ?" Yao Ming was shocked. He always thought that Yang Rui was of Chinese descent, and he could barely speak Chinese.

"Of course I can use it, I have no problem chatting in Chinese, you may not be faster than me than typing." Yang Rui laughed.

After the ceremony, Yang Rui called for 8 timeouts, but failed to change the outcome. He lost to the Knicks 92-107.

During the preseason, the Wizards couldn't beat the Knicks. As soon as Larry Brown joined, he immediately transplanted the defensive system, and guarding against the Knicks made all teams a headache.

The management discussed with Larry Brown several times to increase Yao Ming's playing time. After all, as Asia's No. [-] star, he is like a cash cow and must be cultivated.

But Brown showed his stubbornness, starting with Ben Wallace and Kurt Thomas, and backing Yao Ming and Harnington.Since Harnington is extremely mobile, he can occasionally show off mid-range shots and is black and tough. He is 206cm tall and weighs 107kg and can play as a power forward. Therefore, he can also partner with Ben Wallace and play more minutes than Yao Ming.

Yao Ming played 12 minutes throughout the game, scoring 6 points and 5 rebounds.

Yao Ming's efficiency is not low. He usually trains hard, so his treatment is better than Milicic, but after the start of the game, he averaged only 7.3 points and 4 rebounds per game. He is still far away from becoming an All-Star. Even if Chinese fans vote, the league will definitely intervene, not Make him an Eastern Conference starter with that kind of stats.

Jordan is also the Wizards' top scorer. He made 27 of 12 shots, 5 of 2 from 8-pointers, 7 of 33 from the free throw line, and scored 10 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. He grabbed [-] offensive rebounds in this game and tried his best all out.

The Wizards lost four straight, 14 wins and 6 losses, and their record was tied by the Knicks. Because the relationship between the two sides fell to the fourth place in the Eastern Conference, they also led the Pistons by a game and a half.Ranked one and two are still the Nets and Bulls.

On the 13th, the Wizards played away against the Nets, which ranked first in the East.

On the offensive end, the Wizards were still trapped in the zone defense and failed to play efficiently. They lost the game 75 to 89. This time they were defended even worse.

斯塔达迈尔19分10篮板2助攻，马盖蒂18分5篮板1助攻，两人的出色发挥也没法带动乔丹。

乔丹20投仅5中，罚球2中2，全场打了40分钟，只得12分5篮板4助攻。

After the game, Jordan did not spray his teammates, because he was almost undercover in recent games, increasing the number of shots, reducing the passing, and lowering the shooting percentage. This is not a routine arranged by Yang Rui at all.

The most frightening thing is that Jordan didn't do it because the team couldn't win the game. The team started to lose after he increased his shots.In the opening stage, Jordan did a good job in organizing the offense. Although the team's perimeter movement was average, Maggette, Wallace, Hamilton and others could ensure firepower when counterattacking.

Yang Rui suspected that Jordan did this because he wanted to average 20+ points per game. An exclusive interview with the Washington media caused a change in his mentality...
