Although Carlisle felt the importance that Richard valued himself.

But his upright personality is a little unpleasant......

His character is like this, otherwise, he would not have clashed with the Pistons management in the first place, resulting in his being fired......

"Lee, is the first player in each position on this list our starting lineup?"

Richard nodded, he did intend to do so.

"There's nothing wrong with other positions, but at the center of the point, are you really sure you want to use Jermaine as the starting center? I feel like Sabonis is the better choice, right? Carlisle asked, frowning.

In fact, before asking Richard about the starting lineup, Carlisle himself had envisioned the starting lineup for the new season.

Kobe Bryant started at the point guard position, and Carlisle thought the same way......

It's not that he agrees with Kobe's strength, but there is really no one available in the Trail Blazers, and it is better to use the underage Kobe Bryant than to use the embarrassing Childrides......

At the very least, you can exercise, in case this is a gem......

Big Ben plays the position of starting power forward, and this Carlisle also guessed it, and there is no objection to this......

Richard spent so much effort to get the big book, but it wasn't to sit on the bench!

Many fans may have some misunderstandings about the position of the power forward, thinking that the power forward has to be like Brother Thick Eyebrows, Aldridge or Rasheed Wallace, who can attack and defend......

This is not the case.

The definition of an old-school power forward is hard labor......

As the auxiliary position of the center, he is responsible for fighting for rebounds, defense, card positions and other dirty work, as for scoring, it is generally necessary for the center to have no chance before it is the turn of the power forward......

If you don't say that the big forward is also called the second center......

And now, because of the continuous development of basketball, some teams will even use power forward as the main point of attack, such as the Jazz team......

In later generations, there were still big forwards used as organizational points......

Anyway, with the development of basketball, the positions of players on the court are becoming more and more blurred......

As an academy coach, Carlisle naturally has no objections to Big Ben forward.

Small forward and scoring guard, Carlisle has no objection to Richard's arrangement, the main task of these two points is to score......

No matter who plays the position, the ultimate task is to score points, and the rest is just incidental......

And Carlisle also knows very well that the two people chosen by Richard are the best choices, in terms of scoring ability, the current Trail Blazers team, Clifford Robinson must be the strongest, followed by Sabonis, and then it should be Rasheed Wallace, who just joined!

Carlisle is not a rigid person, and he knows that Richard's intention of putting Rashid at the small forward position must be trying to emulate Clifford Robinson and follow Robinson's line......

Now that Durant is just a little baby, Carlisle naturally didn't know that there would be a player like Durant in the future!

But even if there is no Durant at the moment, it doesn't mean that there are no Durant-type players in the league......

Clifford Robinson!

Nominally a power forward, but in reality Robinson is a swingman who walks the line of a swingman......

With a height of 208 cm and a weight of 105 kg, you have no concept of this, you can imagine Durant's hemp stick figure!

What's more coincidental is that the appearance of this product is seventy or eighty percent similar to Durant......

Well, Durant might be a little better looking than him, with bigger eyes......

Although the number one star of the Trail Blazers last season was Strickland, Robinson's statistics are no worse than those of the Speeder!

Averaged 21.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, shooting 43 percent from the field and 38 percent from three-point range!

Not to mention anything else, just by looking at his rebounding statistics, you can generally know his style of play......

The 208-height power forward, who averages 38 minutes per game, has less than six rebounds per game, which is a complete outside play!

All kinds of floats on the outside, big and medium shots, and three-point ......

If you stay inside, with this height and playing time, even if the rebounding strength is very poor, it is not a big problem to grab eight rebounds......

It's not that Robinson just entered the league and that's the way he played, when he first entered the league, it was a more orthodox interior play, at most, he would sometimes pull out and shoot a mid-range shot......

But in the 94-95 season, this thing didn't know what stimulated it, and directly started the outside play!

The number of three-point shots per game, which was originally averaged less than once, rose directly to 5.1, and the three-point shooting rate was also quite good, reaching a level of nearly 40%!

Richard even wondered if he had watched the video of Durant's game in the future......

Due to the small tonnage, it is too easy to get injured in the inside fight, and after Robinson changed his playing style, he directly turned into an iron man!

Played 1,200 games in his entire career and missed only 19 games......

In terms of ironman, it's really no worse than Utah Twins or AC Green!

It is said that Rasheed Wallace is the first person to play the low post with a high post style of play, which is commonly known as a new type of interior play!

Actually, otherwise, Robinson is, Rasheed Wallace is a kind of play carried forward, think about it, it is really possible that Rasheed Wallace learned Robinson when he played with the Trail Blazers......

The key is that his defense is also quite good!

How good is it? At the age of 36, he was also selected for the All-Defensive Second Team......

Speaking of which, Robinson is a small part of the reason why Richard chose to join the Trail Blazers, and Richard is confident that he can make Robinson exert greater power!

……

With such a strange swingman as Robinson, Carlisle directly determined that Richard placed Rashid in the small forward position, in order to let Rashid follow Robinson's route......

This is actually true, after all, there is no Durant at the moment, Robinson can be said to be Durant, the poor man's version of Durant......

Only in the center forward position, Carlisle has his own ideas.

"Carlisle, I know what you think." Richard said with a smile.

"You must think that O'Neal Jr. is too young, and the inside line is a position that has a relatively late maturity time, so you want Sabonis to take O'Neal Jr. first......"

Carlisle nodded, that's exactly what he thought.

In addition to a few BUG players, many players in the center position need to spend at least two or three years to develop before they can be used......

Now that O'Neill Jr. is outrageously young, Carlisle wonders if he should let O'Neill Jr. start as a substitute.

"Carlisle, trust me, I know this player very well!"

"Maybe I even know better than he does, and believe me, our investment is definitely worth it!"

"Give him a chance to start, he'll definitely give us a huge surprise!"

Richard said confidently.

This is really not a joke, how does little O'Neill know what he can do in the future, but Richard knows it......
