Chapter 664: Jim's Abilities

27:26! The first quarter ended with a margin of just one point. At this time, Chen thought about Coach Steve, the new arrival in the team this season, thought about it, took out his mobile phone in the hotel and hung up a call for him.

"Well, it's me, Chen Yinan. Steve, have you been free lately? "Because they are new colleagues this season, the two of them have only met once. So Chen was still more polite to him at this time.

After dealing with the work at hand, Atkinson saw that the Nets and Suns were playing to the end of the third quarter. The Nets are leading by 4 points at 74:70 at this time! The atmosphere at the scene has also come back to some temperature.

At this time, the lineup on the Suns' side of the court is Monroe, Allan, Bender, Daniels and Taylor. Daniels and Monroe shared the team's main offensive task in the third quarter!

Originally, after the first half of the game, Phoenix led the Nets by 56 points at 56:51. However, Brooklyn was led by Dinwiddie in the third quarter, and waves of fierce offense greeted the Suns!

What intrigued Atkinson was that the players learned that Chen Yinan was about to return to the team, and their state changed to a certain extent. Although such a change may not have much effect in the short term. But their mental outlook has changed to a certain extent. This kind of judgment is different from what Chen thinks now.

......

Jeremy Lin and Mozgov chatted while watching the game seriously! This ball looks like they're having a show! The players on the bench feel a lot more excited than they are on the field!

Dinwiddie carried the ball to the front court, got past the opposition under Taylor's defense, saw Daniels come up and passed the ball to Russell. Bender immediately came over to defend, and Jefferson took Russell's pass and bypassed Alan to score points! 76:70!

The atmosphere of the scene was suddenly detonated again! Daniels walked over to receive a pass from Monroe, who was already slumping physically. Jim drained Monroe's energy in the first half!

In the first half, the opposition also ignored the problem. It feels like the Nets can still lead in the third quarter. After all, now the Nets opposite have returned to the 15th place in the East! But by the end of this section, they didn't feel quite right......

Jefferson also caught Atkinson's attention at this time. This player has grown rapidly with the Nets at this time. However, he has always been somewhat unknown in this team. It wasn't until this season that his stats began to rise rapidly that he was noticed by the media.

Daniels hit a three-pointer immediately after receiving Bender's pass! 76:73! If there were no Monroe and Daniels in this quarter, I don't know what it would have been like.

"Huh? Why didn't Warren get on? The middle-aged man frowned in thought, and then immediately relaxed between his eyebrows. I thought to myself, I hope his performance today is not too dazzling.

Allen took the basketball and served to Dinwiddie. Allen is now averaging 4.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game this season, barely a blue-collar player in an average of 26.3 minutes played.

At the time, Borg trusted him too much. At that time, Aaron did play well. But what Borg didn't think much about was that Allen was just a rookie who had played basketball for three years and sat on the bench for two years. And Egyptian Diyus is not good at scoring, but his defense is still very good!

Aaron is now compared with Egypt's average data last season, only the number of assists is a little more than him, and all other statistics do not surpass Egypt's Diyus!

But since he's been a starter in a lot of games this season, Jim also thinks it's better to let Allen come up and play today. Looking at the Egyptian Diyus Jim, who has gained two laps now, he immediately dispelled the idea of using him to play......

Willie took the basketball and passed it to Russell. Russell is now averaging 8.7 points, 2.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game this season! Although the playing time has been limited a bit, the efficiency is still relatively good!

Russell, who watched the opposition defend a little lax, immediately passed the ball to Allen. Unexpectedly, Aaron's movements slowed down, and he was directly hit by Monroe in the air with a blood cap!! At this time, Daniels seemed to be the only one in the court, and immediately after getting the basketball, he rushed over alone, got up and jumped and hit a three-point shot! 76:76!

The camera goes to Nets interim coach Jim. It was obvious that Jim was not in a good mood at this time...... However, after more than 10 seconds, Jim slowly calmed down. He shook his head slightly, but for a little longer than usual. There is its own disappointment and impatience with the team's performance today.

There was a coordination problem on the Cleveland side, but it was able to adjust back immediately after a certain amount of time. But will the Nets?

Jim, who played as an assistant coach with the Cavaliers last season, stopped thinking about it at this time and continued to watch the game. Dinwiddie dribbled to the frontcourt, rushed out immediately under the bag of Daniels and Taylor, and hit a jumper to hit a 2-point jumper! 78:76!

After watching past games, Jim also thinks Dinwiddie is a good point guard type player! Apparently he didn't misread him tonight!

Alan was cut off by Willy as soon as he got the basketball. Russell grabbed the basketball and immediately rushed to the front court and hit a three-point shot! 81:76! There is not much time left for the game! Taylor took Daniels' pass and used Bender's body to immediately return to the Nets for a three-pointer! 81:79!

With less than 10 seconds left in the third quarter, Dinwiddie watched the basketball roll on the floor for a while, then picked up the basketball and jumped up directly in Daniels' somewhat regretful eyes to hit a long-range three-pointer!! 84:79! The third quarter ended after the opponent received the ball and did not shoot.

......

"I don't think I can ask for this anytime soon. However, players with a certain foundation like the previous can still meet the requirements. Even more than expected" Steve's face at this time had an extra layer of confidence, which made people feel comfortable.

"Okay, okay, that's going to be easy, I thought we'd have to wait a long time. In that case, it is estimated that even if some of them have returned to their previous state, they will still be traded," Chen said to Steve beside him.

"I guess now I can guess who you're talking about?" Hess said to Chen with a smile.

"No, you can't guess." Chen Gang's expression froze suddenly. At this point, it actually made Steve feel a little chill.

"What? What do you mean? ”

"It's all members who want to be strengthened! Including Jeremy Lin, Crabbe, and more! Get them running on the field! Only in this way will you be able to get some basic fitness indicators in the second round of the playoffs! The rest of the matter has to be thought about slowly, first of all, I want to show them what their physical state is like at this time......"

When Chen said this, it seemed to Steve, that his teeth were about to grind out sparks~ On the one hand, he felt that Chen was indeed different from other coaches. If it is a different coach, he may simply assign a task, and then coach for a year and then leave.

But this young man is preparing for the playoffs from now on! Will the Nets, who are playing like this, make it to the playoffs? At the time, Steve didn't think about it at all. Maybe it was Chen's state at the time, as if the Nets had entered the playoffs.

The two chatted for a lot of time after meeting. Chen also looked at Steve's training plan and left him after feeling that there was nothing wrong with him in the end. He's back with one game left to return to the Nets.

Until then, the contact with the teaching assistants had been relatively smooth. But it's not so easy to say about the players. Because from the previous years of coaching, Chen felt that he might still have some problems on his side. It's okay to get the team into the playoffs. But when it comes to the playoffs, it "doesn't work".

......

"Mozgov has to pay attention to the timing when he grabs rebounds inside. Protect the basketball after grabbing it. We are now five points ahead of the opposition! As long as it's okay offensively, basically this game can still be won......"

Jim felt himself nervous. Will you be able to get your first win in basketball after losing streak until now?

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Suns' lineup on this end was Allan, Chandler, Warren, Daniels, Booker! On the Nets' side are Mozgov, Willie, Jefferson, Crabbe and Jeremy Lin!

Jefferson really does give a sense of trustworthiness! After the third quarter, Jim kept him on the court! Warren had finished warming up at this time, and he watched the opponent's Lin quickly stand up after holding the ball over half court and was ready to jam Jefferson who was getting closer and closer to him at any time!
