Chapter 773 great pick up
Chapter 773 Chapter 773. Great leak detection
“Yes, I plan to give Luis and Paul more opportunities. Luis is very talented, Paul has good immediate combat power, Alonzo and Steve also need more opportunities…without enough attractive signings Under the circumstances, the coaching staff has discussed it and is not going to sign in easily, we need to be stable.” The coach clearly stated the plan.
Liu Xiu came to the window and looked at Jeremy Richardson, who was training downstairs, and said, “I understand, but the roster is always full, right? Give that guy a chance? He’s been here for three years. .”
The vice president on the side joked: “Hey, is this the Jess I know? Are you actually moved by his efforts?”
“Ah? No, I just want him to see himself clearly and know that the world of competitive sports is very cruel. Give up early and find a factory to work to support himself. If he wastes time like this, his elders will cry. The child is raised so big. , will only gnaw on the old.”
“…”
The vice president wants to get a bench.
So annoying!
The coach smiled and said: “Well, you don’t have to worry about it, the warden. His parents are local industrialists here. They are responsible for the construction of our training hall. Even the boss is very satisfied with the quality. We can use the new training hall.”
Knock! Another big dog!
Liu Xiu suddenly felt pain in the egg.
The vice-president responded after recovering: “We will consider your suggestion, you should go back first.”
Okay, the vice president has kicked him out, and Liu Xiu immediately said goodbye and left.
He really didn’t expect the direction of this chat, but the goal was achieved.
Said to think about it, so long means that there will be a non-guaranteed contract.
He helped Jeremy Richardson fight for a chance. On the one hand, he saw this guy three times, and he worked so hard every time. He was a little moved. He happened to hear that the team had no official signing plan, so he supported him. .
But the main purpose is to try the right to speak after the contract has been renewed when there are reasonable reasons.
As a result, I am still very satisfied.
…
On the second day, the Trail Blazers announced at a regular press conference after the training camp that they had signed a one-year, $370,000 non-guaranteed contract with Jeremy Richardson. The kind that calculates the salary every game can be laid off at any time.
This is exactly what Liu Xiu expected. The coach also called him, saying that if he encounters a favorite forward and backline player, and Jeremy Richardson does not have a good performance, he will decisively replace him. .
Liu Xiu agreed, he was only helping him because of the rich second generation’s efforts, but the failure was also the rich second generation’s own business.
The time came to October 10th. After a day of rest and preparation, the first game day of the Trail Blazers preseason came, and the opponent was the Sonics.
There is no such thing as tactical practice and running-in for the Trail Blazers in the preseason this year. First of all, it is to test the state of the players.
Old players, the most stable state is Ray Allen, which is not expected by the coaching staff.
The worst one is Randolph, who weighs 133 kilograms and is close to Yao Ming’s tonnage. The difference between the two is 20 centimeters…
What pleased the coaching staff the most was Liu Xiu’s state.
In fact, as long as Liu Xiu’s weight does not exceed the standard, whether he is fat or thin, the most important thing is the continuity of physical strength in a short period of time, not the state or strength, but what the coaches see is that he is now 95 kg heavier than last season at the beginning of the season. He who broke 100 kilograms is strong…
After getting a good understanding, let Little Flying Squirrel or Blake take Louis Williams, Millsap and others on the court, giving them enough time to adapt to the rhythm of the NBA game.
The importance of age was seen in the first game. Although Louis Williams entered the NBA a year earlier than Millsap, he was just a high school rookie, not the kind of particularly talented high school student genius. Although he scored 12 points in 27 minutes, he only made 4 of 12 shots, which was inefficient…
And Millsap, played 25 minutes, made 3 of 5 shots and 2 of 3 free throws, scored 8 points, 8 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block. His offense and talent are particularly good. The energy of playing life-saving defense and his good defensive basic skills made the coaches and teammates shine.
This energy, this positivity, goes so well with Stevenson and Kwame Brown!
Although the Trail Blazers lost 92 to 107 to the Sonics in the final preseason opener, the coaching staff got what they wanted.
On the 13th, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Hornets at home.
Tonight, Maurice Cheeks deliberately let Stevenson, Millsap, and Kwame Brown play together for a long time.
The three are in perfect harmony!
The double champion combination of Aldridge and Bogut of the Hornets was stunned by the three of them!
The characteristics of the three are all domineering, tough, and fierce. They all have that kind of vigor that precedes their defensive skills, and their expressions are so unreasonable, brutal and ferocious.
The extrajudicial fanatic is a standard skill-level defensive player. In fact, his hardness has always been lacking. After all, with a body size of 206 cm and 99 kg, it is quite difficult to be tough.
McDyess was a brutal physical power forward at the beginning, but now he is a technical center. When he partnered with Kwame Brown, he needed Kwame Brown to accommodate him at the power forward position.
Mourning’s condition is similar to that of McDyess. He is still strong, but his physical condition is still there.
Of course, there are tough, skillful defensive combinations that Maurice Cheeks and the coaches love, but with Millsap in, you can have a set of extremely hard frontcourt defensive combinations, and there are more defenses on the defensive end. operating space.
But there are surprises and regrets.
After Payton retired, the defense at the point guard position was much weaker!
There was no problem when Liu Xiu was there, the second defense boss.
But when he was replaced, Blake had an attitude but no ability; Little Flying Squirrel…; Reed…
And Liu Xiu now wants to play more point guards, so the defense becomes weaker during the rotation of shooting guards.
will rely more on inside defense!
Therefore, the inside defensive change brought about by the addition of Millsap is even more important.
Time passed day by day, and the preseason games were played one by one.
Liu Xiu has returned to his familiar life track.
Training, learning tactics, meeting with coaches, resting, playing games… After the first preseason game, he knew that his average playing time would not exceed one quarter per game. He decisively entered the stroke position and saved his energy for the simulation Train, hurry up and get stronger…
The coaches did not correct Liu Xiu’s paddling, but encouraged him to do this. From the point of view of the coaches, Liu Xiu has been on a roll for a year. When it comes to the training team, after the World Championships in early September, the preseason will start in mid-October… For them, urging Randolph to lose weight is the top priority.
Time flies and came to October 27th. Yesterday, the last home game of the preseason game against the Timberwolves ended. There were 4 home games and 3 away games for a total of 7 preseason games. The Trail Blazers achieved a record of 2 wins and 5 losses. It can be said that Pretty bad, the media’s daily booing comes…but the fans are having fun.
Liu Xiu averaged 11 minutes per game, Ray Allen averaged 16 minutes per game, and Kwame Brown averaged 21 minutes per game. It is said that Randolph still weighs 130+ kilograms… In this preseason situation, it is a ghost to win .
Liu Xiu is not in a hurry about this either. He will give Lu Wei and Millsap a chance to practice. With the current lineup, the two will definitely have playing time in the regular season. Make some contributions.
Today, Liu Xiu doesn’t care about the preseason or not. The family is happy!
