After the game, Yang Rui brought four stars and Hornacek to a press conference, and everyone was the target of the media. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This game is very significant, and the Heat are behind the Raptors in the Eastern Power Rankings, and it is big news that a team that is predicted to be close in strength will play this kind of point difference.

Miller hit a triple-double, peaking on popularity the previous season. He said happily: "The coach wanted me to be a playmaker like Divac, and he arranged for me to train last season and develop in that direction, and he believed that I could do it. I'm glad I contributed to the team and didn't let him down. ”

The reporter also interviewed Yang Rui and asked him to evaluate Miller.

Yang Rui concluded: "Miller must have the ability to become an All-Star, and don't forget him when voting." This season, his role in the Raptors' offensive system will be very large. ”

The reporter asked: "You said last season that Jermaine O'Neal could also become an All-Star, and is he confident that he will develop four stars for the Raptors?" ”

"No, it's five, and Billups, he's very selfless, so the numbers aren't too pretty, but I'm optimistic about his future."

The reporter asked: "In this game, the Raptors played high scores and high efficiency, and the team did not focus on running and bombing, will you adopt positional offensive tactics this season?" ”

"We played positional battles last season and players don't necessarily have to run. It's a pity that the previous lineup was flawed, and if there were stable three-point points last season, the Heat would definitely not make it to the Finals. ”

The reporter asked: "How do you feel about winning the Heat by 48 points?" ”

'It's a surprise that the players are in amazing form, I didn't expect it to be so easy to win, and hopefully they can show more like this.' Yang Rui smiled.

He saved a little face for the Heat, otherwise it would be very unpleasant for the fans to boo all over the court in Miami in the future.

After talking about tactics and players, the reporter mentioned the Knicks again. "In the other game, the Knicks lost to the Spurs 73-79 and the score was low, what do you think?"

In the other opener game around the start of the season, the Knicks battled with the Spurs at home.

Ewing was in terrible form, moving so slowly that he could barely keep up with the pace of the game. After winning the championship in '98, Ewing has no regrets, and he doesn't practice so hard during the holidays. Coupled with Sprewell and Houston's snatching of power, his popularity has dropped significantly.

In the first half, Ewing didn't score a point on 0-of-4 shooting, and only grabbed 3 rebounds. Back in the locker room, some ruthless New York fans booed the aging Ewing, leaving him a little disheartened.

It's not that Van Gundy doesn't want to go back to the way he played in 1997-98, but with the Knicks' current roster, if you want to be good defensively, you have to sacrifice offense.

Yang Rui thought to himself: The score is so low, I don't watch this kind of boring game.

But if that were the case, Van Gundy would be out of work if he didn't finish the season. The drama of tearing up with the old club, the media likes it the most, and people never get tired of watching it, and the Knicks were eliminated by the Raptors last season, and it is easy to extend a grudge.

Yang Rui thought for a while, and said: "The defense of the Spurs and the Knicks is very strong, and the tactics arranged by the coach are very appropriate, because Ewing and Robinson are veterans, and the rhythm must slow down." I'm going to keep an eye on their game, and if I play against them, I'm going to try to improve the speed of the transition between offense and defense, and get them into the rhythm of the Raptors and win with offense. ”

Yang Rui and the Knicks have no enmity, but once again show their attitude that the Raptors will insist on playing offensive basketball. When most people shouted "defense wins the championship", Yang Rui knew how much the league officials led by Stern wanted to turn the league into "offense is king".

Making Stern, the real ruler of the NBA, comfortable, is more important than anything else.

In this round of five best balls, the Raptors occupied four seats, and the next day, the Raptors grabbed the headlines. Several media outlets praised the Raptors' offense, saying that they are the most flashy team in the league.

There are also media that see Yang Rui's displeasure, ABC Radio said: "Chinese coach Jerry Young only led the team to win one game, and defeating the Heat does not mean that it is the strongest team." The Raptors can attract a lot of fans by attacking them, but in the playoffs, they will have a hard time beating the Spurs, Lakers, and Trail Blazers in the West, and time will tell. ”

The most surprising thing was Knicks owner James Dolan, who was interviewed to support the Raptors. "The Knicks' game is not good-looking now, and if it is the style of the Raptors, I will be happy even if I don't win the championship."

Also disappointed are New York fans, with one old fan saying, "I used to go to the home stadium and I don't plan to go this year, I'm just a Yankees fan in the future." ”

The Yankees are a strong baseball team in New York, and in a comic book about New Yorkers, they once said to newcomers to New York, "If you want to make friends with a New Yorker, tell him that you are a die-hard Yankee fan." ”

In 1998, the Knicks won the championship and had a slight chance of catching up with the Yankees, but the fire was soon extinguished.

After a day off, the Raptors continued to play at home against the Celtics.

In the summer, the Celtics made a big trade, sending away swingman Ron Mercer, a rookie with the 6th pick in '97, in exchange for power forward Danny Fortson, swingman Eric Williams and guard Eric Washington from the Nuggets.

On the surface, the Nuggets got a star who averaged 17 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, but it was the Celtics who actually earned. They didn't want to renew Mercer's contract at all, and the trade made up for the team's weakness in protecting rebounding.

TOWERING, 201CM TALL AND WEIGHING 118 KILOGRAMS, FORTSON WAS A 10TH PICK ROOKIE IN '97, AVERAGING 11 POINTS AND 11.6 REBOUNDS PER GAME LAST SEASON.

The Green Army trade is not just because Mercer and Pierce overlap, but because he's a cancer. He's an arrogant guy who looked down on Billups in his rookie season and grabbed the ball with Pierce last season.

As the team's No. 2 scorer, Mersell shot 43% from the field last season, averaged 17.2 shots per game, more than he scored, averaged only 2.6 free throws per game, couldn't shoot three-pointers, and was purely a data brush.

The bad news for the Green Army is that Fortson suffered a muscle strain that was too aggressive in the preseason and will need to be sidelined for six to eight weeks. Washington was cut after the preseason and is currently only able to play Williams.

This is a 203CM tall, 100kg forward, without any characteristics, averaging 7.3 points per game last season and shooting only 36.5% from the field.

With two straight seasons not making the playoffs, time is running out for coach Rick Pitino to prove himself. If he doesn't make the playoffs this season, he's going to be fired.

The Green Army played well in the first game, beating the Wizards 112-101 at home.

Yang Rui is not thinking about Pitino's future, what he cares about is that the Celtics are not a good defensive team, how can they defend against the Raptors if they let the underdog Wizards score so many points?

If you continue to beat opponents at home, it will definitely make the Raptors more popular. In order to strengthen the attack, Yang Rui adopted a lineup rotation in the second game.

Veteran Kevin Willis, Meat Shield centers Jerome James and Ryan Bowen are not on the 12-man squad. The two can only defend, and although Willis has a small hook hand and average response ability, he can't compare to Miller's role in the system.

Yang Rui does not plan to defend this time, both the starter and the bench have to work hard to score, and his goal is to score 130+ points in a row.
