Chapter 326: 1st matchup between East and West
Of course, there are also players with poor brains. What I said to Popovich is above all, that is the simple-minded Stoudemire.
In the group training of the training match, as long as the two were divided into different groups, Stoudemire would require a matchup on both ends of the offense and defense. This never happened before Popovich said these words.
It can be seen that Stoudemire is a little concerned about Popovich's words.
But every time the sling in the matchup made Stoudemire extremely frustrated, he actually believed Popovich's words a little bit.
Lian Dao knows that Popovich is a person who will do anything to achieve victory. He can encourage his players to destroy the opponent's core. From this point, it can be seen that Popovich is not superficially kind.
But a kind of hypocrisy packaged as kindness!
Moreover, Popovich, who graduated from the Air Force Academy, is still a racist. He looks down on Asian players and at the same time looks down on Eastern powers.
Although some people in the league admire Popovich very much, Lian Dao doesn't feel this way.
For those who look down on China, there is no need for Lian Dao to get used to it.
Moreover, the match against the Spurs last season was very unfriendly. Richard Jefferson even used the cut-off foot against Lian Dao in the game. The cap slammed the ball straight into Richard Jefferson's face.
As a result, Richard Jefferson also suffered a fractured nose and a slight concussion. For this reason, Richard Jefferson missed the game for more than a month.
Lian Dao's fierce response also made Popovich dare not easily use black hands against Lian Dao on the court.
It can be said that through the last battle, the two teams have basically become sworn enemies.
Of course, the best response to Popovich's remarks is to give the Spurs a defeat.
Knowing yourself and the enemy can win every battle, so Lian Dao also used the rest time to continuously study the Spurs' tactics this season.
Compared with last season, the Spurs are no longer obsessed with Duncan's inside singles this season, but put the team's offensive starting point on Parker, while strengthening the team rotation and increasing Duncan's rest time.
Although the trade last season did not have much effect on the Spurs' record, at least to a certain extent, it improved the overall rejuvenation of the team and enhanced the depth of the team's rotation.
It also gave Duncan more rest time.
Duncan is indeed old, but even if Duncan is old, he can still guarantee the lower limit of the Spurs this season.
Moreover, although Duncan's playing time has been reduced, Duncan's scoring efficiency has improved compared to last season.
If Duncan is the lower limit of the Spurs, then Ginobili's monster knife is the upper limit of the Spurs. How far the Spurs can go depends entirely on the performance of this monster knife. Many times the Spurs are on the verge of danger, and it is Ginobi Lee's defying performance brought the Spurs back from the brink of danger.
However, limited by his physical fitness and fitness, it is difficult for Ginobili to maintain his best form throughout the game. This is why Ginobili can only be used as a sixth man in many cases.
However, in order to strengthen the outside offense this season, Popovich also mentioned Ginobili from the sixth man to the starting lineup.
In fact, Lian Dao already has two plans in mind to deal with the Spurs. First, take advantage of the Knicks' inside offense. The peak Stoudemire will face Duncan at the end of his career. The slow-moving Duncan still had no problems.
The second is the mid-range and three-point shooting, killing the Spurs with shooting. This point was tested in the 2008 Western Conference Finals when the Lakers played against the Spurs. The Spurs would prefer to defend inside and shrink the basket in terms of defensive choices.
This is really fatal for players who don't shoot or have unstable shots and like to break through. Although Deng Dada is old, the defensive threat at the basket still exists.
But for a player like Lian Dao who has a stable shot, the Spurs' defense is an opportunity for him to shoot from the outside.
Therefore, as long as he can ensure the stability of his shooting, the Knicks can beat the Spurs.
Of course, he didn't care about it. Although he doesn't like Popovich, he still has some affirmation of Popovich's ability. Judging from the Spurs' changes this season and the current record, it is enough to show that Popovich is a master tactician.
The victory of a game must not only consider your own state, but also consider the state of your teammates. Popovich's speech before the game to sow discord has a great impact on the Knicks players.
Because of the internal team training during this period, the state of the teammates is not very ideal.
D'Antoni is also a little worried about this. When they were in the Suns, they often played against the Spurs. To be honest, D'Antoni was quite afraid of Popovich in his heart.
"Sickle, Amare is still greatly influenced by Popovich. It is possible that this game will depend on you again. How is your state?"
"I'm fine, don't worry coach, we'll beat the Spurs!"
Hearing what Lian Dao said, D'Antoni's heart fell to the ground.
"Very good, sickle, we must beat the Spurs, so that more teams will be afraid to play against us!"
D'Antoni's words are also very reasonable. If the Knicks defeat the Spurs, which ranks second in the league, it will greatly damage the team's confidence in the next match against the Knicks.
In this way, the Knicks will have a psychological advantage when playing against these teams!
Lian Dao also nodded.
Immediately, D'Antoni also took Lian Dao to discuss some tactical arrangements against the Spurs.
…
Lian Dao and D'Antoni were together, and the discussion ended very late.
When Lian Dao drove out of the arena, the sky in New York was snowing heavily, and the whole city was completely white. Christmas had just passed, and there were still some Christmas decorations on many streets.
The Christmas decorations, combined with the snowflakes all over the sky, are simply full of atmosphere.
At this moment, Lian Dao had the urge to build a snowman, but then he remembered that the little senior sister had recently gone to Los Angeles on a business trip, leaving only herself, the nanny, bodyguards, and a dog in the villa, and this idea was instantly extinguished.
It's romantic to make a snowman with a little sister, and it's called reminiscence of innocence; what is it called if you make a snowman with two aunts?
"Huh~!" Thinking of that scene, Lian Dao couldn't help shivering, and then turned up the hot air in the car again.
In fact, as an NBA player, Lian Dao has very little company with his junior sister. Half of the 82 games in a season are away games, and sometimes there are consecutive away games. time.
During this period, the two can only comfort their missing through voice and video calls, but it is still good to be like Lian Dao and Xiao Shijie.
After all, most of the younger sisters work in New York, and such business trips are rare. When the Knicks are playing at home, Lian Dao can spend a long time with the younger sister.
But some players are not like this. For example, Wilson Chandler's girlfriend just broke up with him. Chandler's girlfriend is a model. She is fair, beautiful and has long legs. I met him when Lian Dao organized the team party. , both of these two are due to their work relationship, and they don't often spend much time together, and the most indispensable thing in their relationship is companionship.
After going back and forth, Chandler also likes to stay in nightclubs, and his girlfriend probably couldn't stand the loneliness for a long time, so she turned around and found a Hollywood actor, and kicked Chandler away.
This guy is also heartless, UU reading www.uukanshu. com to celebrate being single, and then back to NYC nightclubs.
