Chapter 30 [Water Release]
Yang Rui didn't expect that the bold use of people could achieve such good results, after all, the Knicks' starting strength was obviously higher. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info His original plan was just to live Houston and let Van Gundy see Houston's core potential.
As a result, he found out that Van Gundy didn't use Houston, but that he wouldn't use anyone on the offensive end except Ewing. He is still in the stage of playing a single nuclear attack, so Ewing is in average form, and the offense is not good.
In Yang Rui's previous life, after Youyin was reimbursed for a serious injury, Van Gundy was forced to switch to playing the outside duo, and during the Rocket period, the Yao Mai combination also took turns to play singles.
The defensive coach is a label on Van Gundy's brain, and he doesn't get into the stream at all when he looks at the offense.
Yang Rui felt that he couldn't fight like this anymore, Van Gundy was the head coach, and this result was a bit hurtful and would affect Van Gundy's prestige in the team.
It may not be a good thing for Yang Rui, the face of the core of the team also needs to be maintained, if Ewing, Starks and others don't like him, will they be able to work happily in the future?
During the break, Yang Rui called Xibodu aside and said with a smile: "Tom, you can lead the team in the second half, and the offensive and defensive tactics are all arranged by you." ā
"Huh? Why? Thibodeau was stunned.
"Everyone is a teaching assistant, I can't just take care of myself and let you watch, right?" Yang Rui shrugged.
Thibodeau was so happy that he almost used Sakamoto's secret trick and repeatedly jumped sideways. By moving vigorously back and forth from side to side, he could make the wind blow.
Of course, if Xibodu jumps like this, it will never be cool, and it should be similar to the screen when the QQ number logs in in the lower right corner of the computer.
"Okay, then you can rest for a while and leave it to me." Thibodou talked to the players about tactics.
When the players came on the pitch, Thibodeau felt that something was wrong......
Leading at halftime, Yang Rui has proven his strength, and now he is very comfortable with the power, and the relationship between the two is closer, but Yang Rui does this as if he is deliberately releasing water.
If they win Van Gundy's starting team with a substitute in the end, the manager will lose face, and even admit their ability will be uncomfortable.
Now that Thibodeau is leading the team, the problem is also thrown to him, and only by losing can everyone be happy.
Xibodu glanced at Yang Rui and snorted.
Is this guy really 23 years old? Compared with him, I am 39 years old and as simple as a teenager!
In the second half, Thibodeau followed some of Yang Rui's tactics, constantly creating misplaced offensive opportunities through off-ball covers.
On the white side, Ewing and Johnson found their senses, unstoppable, and reversed the score in the third quarter. Both sides came off the bench in the final quarter, and in the end, 105-124, the white team won.
Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief, there was no smile on his face, he knew very well that Yang Rui was a spectator in the second half, and no tactical adjustments were arranged.
Take a group of marginal people to play like this, if you change teams...... Van Gundy didn't dare to think about it.
Everyone walked to the stadium and waved to the surrounding fans, opening the curtain call for the training session.
The players were interviewed on the sidelines.
Many reporters surrounded Ben Wallace, and his performance was really eye-catching, although there were no statistics, but he grabbed a lot of rebounds and had beautiful blocks, Ewing and Johnson both understood.
Houston and Atkins together ensured the offense and were equally eye-catching.
Atkins made both Ward and Childs feel threatened. Atkins defensively poor and short, but they have the pace and breaking ability they lack.
Even Bowen was interviewed by reporters, he shot two three-pointers today, and Mills only scored 2 points, laughing and talking to reporters about his feelings.
In Yang Rui's impression, Spurs' Bowen is a gloomy and non-talkative person, but the current Bowen is not like this at all.
Environment makes people, Popovich is a serious coach, and the Spurs are a place where facial paralysis is abundant. In contrast, the atmosphere on the Knicks right now is not bad.
Van Gundy praised Yang Rui in an interview. "I'm sure the Knicks will have a breakthrough this season, I've got a really good assistant coach who has surprised the team a lot and a couple of players in the summer league have played really well."
The reporter asked: "In the first half, Houston led the bench to take the lead, will you consider giving him more of the ball in the new season?" ā
"Yes, he'll be the outside core of the Knicks." Van Gundy replied without thinking.
Before the game, Yang Rui recommended Houston to become the team's outside core, Van Gundy had some doubts, he played very well today, as long as he arranged tactics, his scoring ability seemed to be not inferior to Ewing.
Ewing scored a lot of points today, the shooting percentage was not high, and the form was average. If he reduces the number of heads-ups on the offensive end, he can focus more on the defensive end.
In fact, management had already greeted Van Gundy in the summer, and Ewing's role needed to change. He has injury concerns and is a player the team cannot afford to lose, so he must control Ewing's playing time and ensure that efficiency is the mainstay.
Van Gundy has been a headache for the team's lack of attacking power, and Yang Rui gave a solution during the interview, and can allow the inside and outside players to cooperate more.
Van Gundy is well aware that he needs Yang Rui, and he should be able to arrange appropriate offensive tactics for Ewing to share the offensive pressure with others.
Yang Rui has no reporters to interview, and the assistant coach is far less attractive than the star. In the first half, the substitutes took the lead, and most of them automatically made up for the quality of the players and their excellent form.
He took the jersey from the sideline and looked for Houston. "Alain, sign your name, my friends and I like you very much. Just that little handsome guy on the sidelines, he can't get into the field, he's your fan. ā
Yang Rui pointed to Hunter and Jill, and the two waved in this direction together.
Hunter was so excited that he shouted, "Alain, you're the best." ā
Fans love a lot about Houston, who is the most recognized man among blacks. Yang Rui said that the meaning of liking him is completely different, the assistant coach has been communicating with Van Gundy for a long time, and he is easier to get on the position, so Houston took the jersey very seriously, placed it on the chair, and squatted on the ground with a pen to prepare to sign the beautiful point.
"Jerry, sign what?"
"Never give up on your dreams!" Yang Rui smiled.
Houston savored this sentence and thought it was great, so he wrote it down quickly, along with his own name, and the handwriting was flowing and chic.
Manager Ernie walked to the sidelines and said to Yang Rui cordially: "Jerry, you have done a beautiful job, try to maintain this level in the new season and help the team." ā
"I will." In a training session, Yang Rui gained a lot.
He has been recognized by the management, and some people even think that he is better than Van Gundy, and it is impossible not to be reused!
The management affirmed his work, and he will have a say in the team in the new season, rather than just making suggestions and looking at Van Gundy's face.
This is very important for Yang Rui, he needs to learn defensive tactics, and if Van Gundy is stubborn and uses last season's tactics, he will have to be angry.
