Chapter 449: The Chicago Media That Pulls Hatred
'It wasn't a normal game, we weren't in shape and back-to-back games made everyone feel uncomfortable, especially the injuries to our team-mates, which was the biggest loss for us.
Qin Yang's focus was on his injured teammates, and he didn't have much to say about the game itself.
What else can you say about this game?
The home court was pressed to the ground by the Nuggets, and it was so sour.
So much so that after the game, when the team was training, Coach Van Gundy was furious:
'I know it's a bad season and we're going to take a rest game but I don't like people paddling on the pitch and there's no point in playing if it's not about winning.
Coach Van Gundy doesn't particularly value a strong defense with a physical collision. The defense he expects is a tactical type of defense, disrupting opponents' shooting percentages and getting more rebounds.
But...... If the team is not active in defense and refuses to fight, it will definitely not be good.
Coach Van Gundy has planned an excellent defensive system, but the Kings have not done well, which has become the main factor in the loss of the Kings.
After the game, Coach Van Gundy held an internal meeting.
Qin Yang and other members of the coaching staff attended.
"It's been a very compensatory season, with a lot of back-to-back games, so I think we should start defensively and rotate the lineup."
Coach Van Gundy has his point of view.
Most of the coaching staff have been with Coach Van Gundy for a long time, so they are all familiar with it. No one objected when they heard this.
"It's just that now that three of the team are injured, it's a bit inappropriate to want to do that until the injuries are healed."
Someone suggested so.
Indeed, three fronts were injured, Grant Hill, Ray Allen, and Francisco Garcia, and as a result, the Kings' previous strongest forward became weak.
The starters of the next game can be seen.
It can only be Cosby and Klay Thompson.
The former joined the NBA last year, and although he has been honed in Europe for many years, his confrontation and defense are very average, which is not reassuring.
When encountering an opponent with strong offensive ability, Cosby will definitely be blown up.
The latter is a rookie this year, with good potential, but there are a lot of mistakes, and the shot selection is very average.
With such a lineup and Qin Yang's partner, everyone turned their attention to Qin Yang.
Qin Yang hesitated for a moment at this time and said:
'Coach, there's another guy I think he can play. Rudy Gay is physical, defensively strong, as long as I'm on the pitch, I can hold him down. ”
Coach Van Gundy was silent for a while before replying, "Good! ”
After a series of defeats, the Kings were questioned.
This season's schedule is already uncomfortable, and teams have expected it, such as the Bulls, who are at the top of the East this season.
No one is an opponent except the Heat.
The Heat are also excellent, and after the big three suffered a heavy defeat in the Finals, they finally came together and determined their tactical position.
LeBron James became the core of the team, leading the team for the most part, while Wade scored off the bench and in key moments.
Bosh's status has further declined, although the time is still short, but Bo Yiban's reputation is getting stronger and stronger, and the once all-round power forward is now only left to shoot.
How sad it is.
The two teams in the east compete for supremacy.
In the west, there are many powerful people.
The Thunder team has completely matured this season, and the Thunder four are less powerful in the league. Kevin Durant is terrifyingly efficient, Westbrook is a charge-up warrior, James Harden has taken over the role of Sixth Man of the Year perfectly, and Serge Ibaka is a quasi-All-Star caliber insider.
This lineup is really strong and strong.
As for the rest of the teams in the West, they are not weak at all.
The Lakers and Mavericks are a little tired, the Clippers are rising, and they have played well this season, and the Jazz, Trail Blazers, and Grizzlies are still strong.
At this time, the Kings were in danger of losing streak.
Chicago Sports News finally came out at this time to mock:
"Bruce Qin is a very good player, but there's no doubt that he's not a great leader, everybody was deceived by his performance last season, and you can think about it, there are always players who do well in one season and then disappear like a meteor very quickly."
"The Kings have had a crisis this season after their sudden rise last season, and maybe it won't be long before the Kings announce a rebuild, and we're not surprised at all."
"In contrast, Derrick Rose is the best candidate for the MVP of the regular season."
……
Not only the Chicago media, but also the Chicago News and many other media outlets have followed up on the Chicago News.
For a while, the discussion about Qin Yang and the Kings was noisy.
In this case, the Kings are very Chicago away and welcome their next opponent, the Chicago Bulls.
After arriving in Chicago, Qin Yang didn't show the slightest hint of anger:
"Everyone has their own opinion, but I want to explain everything more with the performance on the pitch, so I'll see you on the pitch!"
Simple, but murderous.
Every time Qin Yang hears the word Chicago, he feels like a dog in the day.
The Chicago media is too low-minded, and in order to tout Derrick Rose, he always pulls himself into the water, as if he belittles himself, and Rose can win the championship this season.
It's really brain-dead.
This season, with the performance of the players and the promotion of the league, the regular season MVP candidate is also more certain.
Rose and Kevin Durant in the east and Chris Paul and LeBron James in the west.
Qin Yang?
It is impossible for Qin Yang to be re-elected, and last season Qin Yang was able to get a transfer that was already a few other people, and his record was not good.
The only contender, Ross, was also crushed by Qin Yang very badly.
So Qin Yang was able to win the regular season MVP.
But a non-American is absolutely impossible to be re-elected as the regular season MVP.
Therefore, this season's regular season MVP is definitely chosen among the four people of Rose, Durant, James and Paul.
Others are not hopeless, such as Howard and others, but the team is too poor, and unless the second half of the season goes against the sky, the regular season MVP is definitely a battle between the four.
When it came to Chicago, the Bulls didn't welcome anyone.
On the one hand, the schedule is really tiring, and on the other hand, the people of the Bulls are really not so familiar with Qin Yang.
On January 27th, the competition began.
Bulls starters, Rose, Ruhr Deng, Ronnie Brewer, Noah, Carlos Boozer.
The Bulls came off the bench, as well as Asik, Tygibson, Korver and others.
The Bulls are really strong with this lineup.
Kings starters, Qin Yang, Cousins, Darko, Klay Thompson, Cosby.
Jump ball, Cousins is a step slower, Noah jump ball is successful.
This season, Noah has reached his prime, and the call to enter the All-Star Game is high, and his strength is no problem to become an All-Star Game substitute.
Rose gets the ball and the first ball is a single with the ball.
The task of defending Rose was given to Klay Thompson.
It was the coaching staff's decision.
On the first ball, Rose accelerated directly after changing direction in front of his body, Klay Thompson defended with his body, Rose did not push it away, but Rose's speed was significantly faster.
The direct acceleration of violence passed Klay Thompson.
Although Klay Thompson has been in the league for half a season, the team's uniform team has a good evaluation of him, hardworking, humble, very attentive on the defensive end, very strong, and able to defend most of the second, third and fourth positions.
But against the current Rose, Klay Thompson's speed is clearly not enough.
