On the 8th, the Wizards continued their winning streak, defeating the Lakers 114-99 at home. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In O'Neal's absence, the Lakers are a completely different team, and they can only bully a weak team like the Clippers and lose all of them against the team in the playoffs last year. On the 5th, they even lost 70-89 to the Cavaliers.
In the summer, some people suggested that the Lakers trade O'Neal, and some experts on ESPN said that O'Neal's lack of aggressiveness in blocking and pick-and-roll was a major reason why the Lakers couldn't beat the Raptors.
Now, the people who say they are trading O'Neill have shut up.
People found out that it was because of O'Neal that the Lakers were able to enter the Finals three times, and without the fat man, this is a street team, and they can't make it to the playoffs.
Yang Rui didn't find it strange at all, in his previous life, in the 2004-2005 season, O'Neal transferred to the Heat, and gave the Lakers two outstanding potential stars Odom and Butler, and the team also signed the former starting point guard of the Pistons, Chaki Atkins, plus Kobe, and went straight to the lottery.
Later, "Zen Master" Jackson returned to the Lakers and was still eliminated by the Suns in the first round for two consecutive years, and the dependence of the triangle offense on the super interior line is self-evident. It wasn't until Andrew Bynum made great strides to become the league's best interior lineman that the team traded Pau Gasol and the inside line had a pivot that the Lakers regained their winning feeling.
Kobe Bryant wanted to challenge Jordan, but Yang Rui did not arrange Jordan to play against him, but used Hamilton to defend and interfere with Kobe's shooting, and if he broke through, he would be trapped.
Bryant was trapped in the defense, played 38 minutes, made only 8 of 21 shots, 11 of 11 free throws, and scored 27 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
Stoudamire finished with 21 points, 13 rebounds and 1 assist on 6-of-12 shooting and 9-of-11 free throws.
Yang Rui coached the passing of Scei Jr. in the team, and he obviously did not have Miller's talent, and he has not seen any improvement from training camp to now. But he was very qualified as an offensive finisher, blowing up Samaki Walker, who had just seven points and four rebounds.
Margeti was the more eye-catching, playing 35 minutes and playing a lot of time as a guest at the No. 4 position, scoring 30 points on 9-of-13 shooting, 2-of-4 three-pointers and 10-of-12 free throws.
Hamilton finished with 20 points and four assists on 7-of-15 shooting and 6-of-6 from the free-throw line.
Jordan played just 26 minutes, shooting 5-of-10, 1-of-2 from three-point range and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line to finish with a quasi-triple-double of 13 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals.
The Wizards continued to crush opponents at the free throw line, not because they bought the referees, but because of their style of play.
In the first half, Yang Rui will generally arrange outside offense, let the players practice running routines, and if they take the lead and feel good, they will continue to play in the second half. If the cooperation is not tacit enough, the score is behind or anxious, in the second half, Yang Rui will ask the players to try to hit the basket and shoot from close range, and someone in front of him will find a confrontation and make a foul.
On the 9th, the Wizards beat the Cavaliers again 100-79 back-to-back.
The outside players regained their touch, and Stoudamire actively played a fast break, dunking the frame four times, and cutting down 27 points, 10 rebounds and 1 assist.
The Cavaliers' starting center "Big Z" is too slow, plays small-ball tactics, and the veteran Teylon Hill is experienced and athletic is not at all the opponent of Xiao Si. Yang Rui arranged for Wallace, Marshall, Jordan and other forwards to grab rebounds, and the center went down to attack quickly, even if the opponent ensured the speed of defense on the outside, it was difficult to defend.
With 6 wins and 1 loss in the opening game, the Wizards unexpectedly tied the record with the Nets and ranked first in the East. Last season, they were twelfth in the East, and they couldn't win the ball, and Yang Rui became a strong team as soon as he came, god.
Stoudamire started averaging 19 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, ranking first on the rookie list, and many media said that he had locked up the best rookie award.
In the summer, the experts who said that Yang Rui was not curious about the team because his tactics required players to shoot threes were dumbfounded. The Wizards don't have many three-point shots, and every game is a strong attack on the inside as a magic weapon to win, and only when the opponent's formation shrinks so much can they consider increasing their perimeter shots.
Online comments, many people look at curious talents, and some people spray Yang Rui's tactics are too utilitarian, and the Wizards team has too many free throws as a whole.
"Didn't Jerry Young suggest that the NBA learn from football and that the fewer timeouts the better, without compromising the spectacle of the game? Why is he the coach with the most timeouts in the league this season? Does he dare to be more hypocritical? ”
"The Wizards make too many free throws, and players often use the ball to deliberately find confrontations and then cheat fouls, so it's really boring to play like this."
"Jerry Young has a lot of ambitions, and the goal this season is definitely not just the playoffs, and the Wizards are the biggest dark horse this season. There are always people who say that they don't play well, so tell me which team is playing well this year? ”
"The Wizards started the game well, so they had a good record, and their record will definitely drop when they meet strong teams."
The Wizards' good record did come by chance, winning two games against the Cavaliers, the worst team in the league.
But Yang Rui believes that the Wizards' final record can win the top four in the East, relying on the unity of the upper and lower levels.
Regardless of whether it is a veteran or a newcomer, he trains very hard, and he has no objection to Yang Rui's employment arrangement. With Jordan's help, he easily suppressed all the players, and whoever disobeyed was looking for death.
Everyone's goal is very clear, to strive for results this season, even if they want to fight for the ball and the boss, they have to wait for Jordan to retire, so the coaching staff has carried out the work smoothly without encountering any resistance.
Of course, there will be players who feel depressed, such as Marshall, who has bitterness that he can't say.
Margeti often played at the No. 4 spot, and Marshall's playing time was shortened, averaging just 25 minutes per game, with 9.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists. Because Yang Rui put Jordan on the baseline when he was in the joint defense, his rebounding statistics also dropped sharply.
There are also benefits to this arrangement, as Marshall can focus more on catch-and-shoot shots, be well prepared, don't need to carry the ball, and shoot consistently from the field at 47.6 percent overall and 39.2 percent from three-point range.
After three days of rest, on the 12th, the Wizards continued to win, defeating the supersonics, whose strength had plummeted 109-101 at home, and sending away the high-paid and incompetent interior Weinbeck, who failed to change back to the strongman, mainly relying on Payton and Rashad Lewis to attack, scoring too few points.
The SuperSonics are weak inside, and the starting center is Pedrager Drobiak, a 20-rookie in the 2nd round in 1997, who failed to get a contract at the time, and did not land in the NBA until last season, moving slowly, defensively poorly, and has little merit except for height and weight to be a meat shield.
The Raptors perimeter players came along, with Jordan shooting 13-of-22 and 1-of-2 from the free-throw line for 27 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.
Hamilton finished with 20 points, four rebounds and four assists on 9-of-15 shooting and 2-of-2 free throws.
On the 14th, the Wizards defeated the Jazz 111-100 at home, winning six in a row.
The Jazz are more than a step weaker than Yang Rui in their previous life, and they don't have Kirilenko, Harplin, and Jalen Collins on the team, and all three are now on the Raptors.
It is no exaggeration to say that the worst team to be pitted by Yang Rui is the Jazz, and it is a question of whether they can dig Boozer in the future. Now the core of the Jazz is still Malone and Stockton, both of whom have reached the age of retirement, with 2 wins and 6 losses at the beginning, and it is difficult to make the playoffs.
On the 16th and 17th, the Wizards defeated the Heat and the 76ers one after another, winning streaks to 8 games, and leading the league with 10 wins and 1 loss.
Fans all over the world were stunned, what is the target of the Wizards' playoff game? It's clearly about competing for the championship!
