Chapter 168 [Change Your Life, Get Serious]
The mentality of the two managers is completely different. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yang Rui is hungry for a championship but without pressure, it's a great season, and he's already very cool to coach so many potential new stars.
Van Gundy is under so much pressure that there is no way back, and if the Knicks lose to the Raptors, he and management will have to wait to withstand the wrath of fans and owners.
On May 16, the day of the competition, Yang Rui also invited Scarlett and Hunter to have dinner at noon and went to the red lobster restaurant in the Times Square store.
Even if he is no longer a New York teaching assistant, Yang Rui can still call to make an appointment for a table, and the manager is more optimistic about him. He loved the shop, the steak was delicious, the mashed potatoes were delicious, and the lobster, crab were good.
Scarlett didn't lose weight after she got fat when she filmed the perfect food reality show, and this meeting seems to be a little rounder, her figure is developing too fast, and she has a tendency to become a BO bully, which makes people can't believe that this is a girl who is less than 15 years old.
Hunter is half a head taller than Scarlett, with a slender build, and he doesn't look like it anymore. He was very curious about Yang Rui's gossip and asked with a smile: "Jerry, I heard that you and your girlfriend only met because she punched you, is that really the case?" ”
"yes, but it's not an accident as it says on the news."
Scarlett snorted, "You've got something wrong with your brain, right?" She hit you, and you fell in love with her instead? ”
"That's a long story." Yang Rui can't explain his celebrity collecting habits, it's not that the reborn can't understand it.
"Then don't talk about it." Scarlett didn't have a good air.
Yang Rui immediately diverted the topic, this child was precocious, and he didn't know what to think in his head.
Scarlett was a little unhappy, either she couldn't help falling in love with Yang Rui, or she felt that something that belonged to her had been snatched away, which was a kind of possessiveness. There is nothing she can do about it, Yang Rui is no longer developing in New York.
The three chatted about entertainment, Scarlett was depressed and didn't receive the movie, but fortunately she still had the second season of "A Bite of America" to film.
"Didn't get the movie? Aren't there supporting characters either? Yang Rui noticed that something was wrong.
In his memory, Scarlett still made a movie called "MyBrotherthePig" during this period. This is a big bad movie, telling the story of Scarlett's younger brother who turned into a pig because of magic, and she and the nanny find a way to restore her brother, a black widow pig diary.
Now, the trajectory of Scarlett's life has been changed by the butterfly effect.
"No, it's just a very mentally retarded comedy, the salary is not high, it's better to make a reality show." Scarlett sighed, "Will you do a second season with me?" My mom also asked you if you had any good ideas that would increase the ratings. ”
"Of course there are ideas, but the key depends on whether NBC Radio cooperates." Yang Rui smiled: "For example, make a linkage drama." ”
"What's that?"
For the siblings, this is another new term.
In this era, there is no TV series to engage in "linkage", simply put, it is an actor string, and the characters of one film and television drama are in another drama. This situation is more common in the future, and there have been four-drama linkages.
"The Flash" and "Supergirl" even had a musical crossover. The leading actors not only cover songs, but also original songs, proving that they are worthy of being called "fast men and super women".
Yang Rui roughly explained that if you add an episode of the story of a food reality show to "Friends", it will be popular.
The plot can be that the reality show is going to Monica's store to do a show, Monica asks her friends to help say good things in the store, but Rachel sees the handsome guy being, Chandler and Joey say the wrong thing, Monica is too excited to cook well, and finally gets a bad review.
Scarlett liked the idea and was ready to go back and talk to her mother.
In the evening, Yang Rui rushed to the stadium early and went to the locker room to boost morale.
The players are talking about how to play, the atmosphere is relaxed, there has been no infighting among the players this season, everything is on the table. This kind of atmosphere allows them not to complain about each other when they make mistakes, and they will take the initiative to take responsibility.
Yang Rui applauded twice and said loudly, "It's about to start, are you ready to be a villain in Madison Square Garden?" It's a good game here, it's a good stat and it's easier to be remembered by the fans, so it's great that we don't have home advantage. ”
The players were smiling, and this kind of morale-boosting method was unheard of.
"But I'm going to put a little pressure on everybody and play all the way to the second round of the playoffs, and it's time to get serious. As long as everyone plays seriously, the Knicks are nothing remarkable. ”
"Yes!" The players shouted together.
It's a psychological cue that tells the players that they have left room in the past, which will give them more confidence.
Yang Rui said loudly: "In the second round, we have exceeded the task, if we win against the Knicks, the opponent in the Eastern Conference will definitely be weaker, and it is possible to reach the finals." One step further, there is the championship. We're going to be the Kaiserslautern of the NBA. ”
Little O'Neill looked like a child, raised his hand innocently and asked, "Coach, who is Kaiserslautern?" ”
"Hey, don't you even watch the news? It's a football team in Germany. Detreve reminded from the sidelines.
Coach Rehhagel took over the Kaiserslautern team, which had been relegated to the second division, and led the team back to the first division in the first year, and the second year actually pushed the promoted team to the throne of the Bundesliga title, creating a myth in world football, which happened last year.
"At the end of the day, it's never a bad thing to meet the Knicks early, we didn't waste much effort in the first round, and now we're in the best shape to take on them. The way to deal with them, we've been practicing all season, is to change the guard and pick and roll quickly. ”
Yang Rui analyzed the Knicks' tactics, emphasized defense, and had a complete plan.
He talked to a couple of key players, especially the two veterans, who had to keep up with the pace and prevent the off-ball screen.
When the players played, the Knicks turned off the lights as usual to introduce the stars, and the atmosphere was not as warm as last season.
Last year, the "voice of basketball" Marf Albert was the subject of media criticism and was sentenced to a 12-month suspended sentence for misconduct and harassment and violent assault. The case led to the firing of NBC Radio, where he had worked for more than 20 years.
The voice of the new commentator in New York was much worse and could not impress the fans.
There weren't many boos from the Raptors players when they came out, and there were New York fans who applauded Carter and some people held "half-human, half-god" signs on the sidelines in support.
This nickname was called out in the second half of the regular season, Carter was often selected for the top five balls, crazy fans, and proved that he was worthy of this nickname with a gorgeous style of play.
CCTV5 Zhang Reasonable said: "The game is about to start, Yang Rui is still sitting lazily on the sidelines, looking relaxed, he is like watching the play, but I don't know if he has brought snacks." ”
Sun Zhengping said with a smile: "Yang Rui is the most personalized coach, I don't know what he will do this year's vacation, if he wants to take an early holiday, the Knicks will play better." ”
On the media day, Yang Rui's remark that "if you can't get into the playoffs, you will take a holiday early", many people remember.
Raptors starters: Billups, Christie, Carter, O'Neal Jr., Willis.
Knicks starters: Ward, Houston, Bowen, Johnson, Ewing.
O'Neal Jr. jumped the ball and the game began.
