Chapter 64: Much has changed
Qin Yang's face was slightly embarrassed when he heard this.
James had introduced his friend agent Richie to Qin Yang before. But Qin Yang refused on the grounds that he had an agent. Now James brings it up again.
Fortunately, James didn't ask about it, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing.
James' emotional intelligence at this time is reflected:
"Agents are very important to players, you need to be cautious, if there is really no better option, I suggest you consider Richie, he is a good agent, and quietly tell you that when my contract expires, I will also sign Richie."
Qin Yang's face was incredible.
James' current agent is well-known in the United States and has helped James get a super contract, especially when he didn't enter the NBA, helping James get a contract of more than $90 million that most NBA players didn't get.
But now James actually told Qin Yang that he was going to change agents.
This......
If it were any other black man, it would definitely be a mess.
The boss treats himself like this, he must cherish this opportunity, hug his thighs tightly, and give face to the team boss no matter how bad it is.
In particular, James knows how to think about others, and most people will really be grateful.
But Qin Yangque felt a slight discomfort and ...... Disgusted.
"Thank you LeBron for the advice, but I really have an agent, although he is not my agent yet, but after all, it is my father-in-law, I ......"
Qin Yang smiled and explained.
"I see."
James didn't continue to ask, keeping a distance.
After strength training, Qin Yang rested for a while, took out his mobile phone and found a quiet place.
"Hello, this is Qin Yang." After connecting the phone, Qin Yang first introduced himself, and the person on the other side of the phone was a little surprised to receive Qin Yang's call, and did not introduce himself, but asked: "What's the matter with calling me?" ”
"Mr. Williams." Qin Yang tried his best to calm down his tone, and said in a sincere tone: "I need an agent, can you be my agent?" ”
There was no sound on the other side of the phone for a while, and it took a long time before the answer came:
"When are we going to meet and talk?"
"Next month, close to a month, I'm going to play a game in Los Angeles, and I've got time before and after the game."
"Okay."
…………
After making the call, Qin Yang exhaled lightly.
Every time he called Mr. Williams, Qin Yang felt a huge amount of pressure, and this feeling was ...... It's like being caught and raped in bed by an elder.
"Well, he shouldn't know that I've been in touch with Lily, well, he shouldn't know ......"
Qin Yang comforted himself like this.
In the afternoon, the game begins.
The Cavaliers played the Thunder on the road.
The Cavaliers are still the starting five, while the Thunder are led by Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook and partnered by Jeff Green, Nick Collison and Mason.
Jeff Green is okay, he belongs to the forward who can fight and grab, but who are the other two players, no one is familiar with the Cavaliers players at all, and Qin Yang can't recognize them.
You can see how bad the Thunder's lineup is.
The two teams played and it was very interesting.
Qin Yang watched from the bench and could clearly feel the difference between the two teams.
The Cavaliers and the Thunder have the same talent in fighting for talent, the Cavaliers rely on James's talent and play tactical coordination led by James, but the Thunder is fighting for the talent of Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook.
In fact, the team's tactics are not superior or inferior most of the time.
Zen master Phil Jackson's triangle tactic was called an X**D tactic by Rodman, and it was not for nothing that this tactic allowed the star to go head-to-head.
To put it bluntly, any player holding the ball alone is also a tactic.
Phil Jackson's triangle offense just made it easier and more comfortable for the Bulls and Lakers stars to play singles.
The Thunder are doing a lot worse in this regard.
The Thunder Double Less is really playing singles.
Although there are occasional assists, it is not a normal tactic, but completely depends on the individual ability of the players, well, if you can score, you can score, and if you can't get in, you pass the ball.
As for who is responsible for the offense in what place, who runs and blocks the dismantling, and who is misplaced in the singles, there is no discipline at all.
At least Qin Yang didn't see the rules.
On the court, Kevin Durant faced both the point guard and the point guard, both of which were obviously misplaced, but they were not utilized, and Kevin Durant's ability to attack the basket was also very strong, but there were few players who cooperated with the cover pass.
The cooperation of the Thunder team really made Qin Yang breathtaking.
In contrast, LeBron holds the ball and blocks in the big Z high position, which is already a routine for the Cavaliers. Inside defense James is basically not done by one person, unless the interior is really strong defensively, such as Duncan, such as Howard. And the big Z misplaced jump shot made the small forward very helpless.
This one is a high-level block, and there is almost no solution.
If the opponent is pinching and assisting, there must be an open space on the outside.
The Cavaliers' outside group of pitchers will not be soft, and at the same time, Mo Williams also has a certain offensive ability with the ball, and his strength is not weak. In this case, the Cavaliers' tactics are simple, but they are difficult to defend.
Not so with the Thunder, where Kevin Durant singled and either hit iron or pass, and Westbrook singled, either hit iron or pass.
In the first quarter, the Cavaliers took the lead 27-25 away.
If it weren't for the Thunder's Jeff Green's outstanding performance and 9 points and 4 rebounds, the Thunder would not have been able to withstand the Cavaliers' offense in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, Qin Yang appeared on the stage, and the situation changed again.
As soon as Qin Yang came on the field, it was still Westbrook who defended Qin Yang.
Qin Yang held the ball and directly provoked a three-point shot.
Decisive, without hesitation.
The gap between Westbrook's height and Qin Yang is too big to defend, although Qin Yang hit the iron, but the big Z basket got the ball and scored with a low hook.
Although Big Z is old, his low-post singles ability still makes a new generation of centers like Howard cry.
In the second ball, Qin Yang accelerated with the ball, and Westbrook moved quickly, but then Qin Yang pulled the ball, his body broke through to the left, and Westbrook moved again.
Then Qin Yang continued to pull the ball to the right side, and Westbrook was helpless.
Qin Yang broke through easily, and after entering the basket, he smashed the board under the basket and scored.
"After nearly 200 heads-ups, I finally gained a little."
Qin Yang's face was expressionless, but he was a little happy in his heart, and in the virtual training ground, he went head-to-head with Westbrook, and the most obvious feeling was that his heads-up ability had improved.
Westbrook's shortcomings were clear to Qin Yang and could easily grasp them.
In the second quarter of the beginning, the Cavaliers players felt that something was wrong, because Qin Yang, who has never been good at singles and didn't like singles, turned out to be Westbrook singles one after another.
What's even more peculiar is that the efficiency is still very high, and when you can't completely get rid of the defense, you can still pass a good ball and assist your teammates to score.
In the second quarter, the Cavaliers led 29-20.
10 points+ ahead.
