Build a Dream Dynasty

Although he is more tenacious in style and has the character of "Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death", the player's basketball IQ is also higher. But in essence, this Rockets team has similar drawbacks in the lineup of the Raptors who lost to the Nets before. The overall style of the game is soft, the athletic ability of the inside line is insufficient, and the hard strength of the team's strongest outside scoring point is the same. Although it can steal some points and get good data by various means, but the "answerball" ball, In the face of tough defense, they often fail to respond.

At this point, Jiang Mingliang and Stevens have to be thankful that the team still has Lopez. He is not an All-Star player, nor is he a tough guy, but he can play single-handedly on the offensive end, he can cover the lower limit on the defensive end, and he is very tactically obedient. The team's current results are acceptable, and Lopez's contribution is impressive It still overshadows the more topical George.

At the beginning of the second half, although the situation of the Rockets has improved, the weakness of staffing is still unable to reverse. Kevin Martin played very depressed today. On the offensive end, facing Paul George's defense, he could only make a piecemeal foul. On the defensive end, even Korver could hold the ball twice in front of him. After 4 minutes of the third quarter, Adelman replaced him with Ariza, who had been reduced to "iron slag" in the Rockets. Although the shooting percentage on the offensive end was not flattering, at least on the defensive end, Ariza The wing line formed with Battier is still good.

This move is very different from "Adelman", and it has achieved miraculous results in this game. Ariza's appearance has accelerated the rotation of the Rockets' defense. After double-teaming Lopez in a timely manner, the rest of the team can keep up with the Nets' transfer ball, or force the ball to fall on the Nets. In the hands of Bledsoe, who has the worst three-pointers.

The usual tactics, the Rockets can't beat the Nets, then do the opposite, and everyone can't even think about playing happily. Although the Rockets contained the Nets' offense, but at the same time their own offense was also affected. Ariza's skills on the offensive end are not in the same breath as Kevin Martin.

Seeing Ariza's performance, Stevens felt a little pity. In the summer, he had the idea to take advantage of Ariza's low market and rob him from the Rockets. If he can join the Nets, the strength of the team's flanks will be more guaranteed.

Before Stevens had time to regret it, a sudden change happened on the field. Bledsoe received the ball in an open space outside the three-point line, made a fake shot and shook Ariza, who had jumped over to defend, then bent over and evaded Ariza, but Ariza deliberately pressed his arm down, The hand just hit Bledsoe's face, directly breaking Bledsoe's brow bone, and Bledsoe lay on the ground bleeding. Seeing that Bledsoe was under the black hands, George, who joined the team with him this year and has a good relationship, couldn't stand it anymore.

"NTM is intentional, isn't it?" Seeing that Bledsoe was under the black hands, George, who joined the team with him this year and has a good relationship, couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed Ariza hard.

"Fuck, wait and see what you see later!" Terrence Williams, who rushed up from the bench, was not as tall as Ariza, but he had a good temper. He kept cursing in front of Ariza and shouting to the opponent's chin.

"Want to fight?" The team members of the Rockets were unwilling to be besieged by their teammates, and surrounded them in groups.

"What do you want to do? MD has the guts to see you in the parking lot!"

"Come on! Come on! Am I afraid of you?"

The three referees and the staff of the two teams struggled to separate the players of the two teams. The boos of the audience also put pressure on the work of the referee. Ariza's second-level malicious foul was sent directly to the arena, from the arena to the player tunnel This section of the road has to accept the baptism of the Coke that the home fans fell down. Of course, he didn't dare to make a move to beat the fans.

George, who was the first to do it, and Hill, who was eager to protect his teammates on the Rockets side, were sentenced to technical fouls, and the penalty scale was more biased towards the Nets. It's just that Bledsoe had to stop the bleeding first, and then check for concussion symptoms.

Jiang Mingliang, who was sitting in the auditorium, had a serious face. It was a little embarrassing for him to have such a situation in this game. For a long time, in order to facilitate the management of the head coach Stevens, and out of the consideration of the team's image and atmosphere, he tried to avoid some players with too much gang atmosphere or poor reputation when selecting players. This result is naturally easier to manage, and there are no thorns in the team, but when encountering some hooligans, the team will more or less suffer.

This can be regarded as a reminder to Jiang Mingliang from this game. In the NBA, not everyone is a good man and a believer.

At 108:98, the Nets won the game with a 10-point advantage, raising the team's winning percentage to 50%.

They won all four home games and lost all four away games. The dragon at home and the worm in the away game are taking shape.

Immediately after the game, Jiang Mingliang found Liu Jia and discussed with him whether Lopez could be used instead of George for the interview.

In his previous life, he had been in many sports forums in China. In the NBA sector, it can be said that in the era when Yao Ming did not retire, fans of the other 29 teams could not last an hour in front of Rockets fans. It is estimated that at this moment, netizens have scolded George away. Going to the interview at this time is meaningless except to recruit gangsters.

From Liu Jia’s point of view, George’s domestic attention is very high, which is not comparable to that of Lopez. If there is a choice, George is naturally better, and the interview manuscript is also written around George, but George The conflict with Ariza just now did have some impact, especially in China.

"In this way, we will simplify the interview. This time we will focus on your management and coaching staff. We will conduct special interviews with the players when we have the opportunity." Liu Jia suggested.

"OK, that's fine." As it happened, Jiang Mingliang didn't talk to George Lopez about it beforehand, and it ended better.

About forty minutes after the game ended, the fans and audience in the arena had dispersed, and the local media also went to the press conference hall to grab a seat. On a seat near the inner side of the stadium, Liu Jia, Jiang Mingliang, and Stevens successively After shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries, we began to talk about some topics of high concern.

"Mr. Jiang, coach, hello. The performance of the Nets last season was not good. The two reorganized the Nets in the summer and created a very young team. And the performance of this group of young people Surprised everyone in the league, how did you do it?"

Jiang Mingliang and Stevens looked at each other, and finally Stevens reached out his hand to signal Jiang Mingliang to answer first.

"In terms of running a team, the first thing is to create a suitable management team. In my personal opinion, in any sports, a good management team is the basis for providing protection for the team. Manchester United in football is like this. Fortunately, I found my ''Ferguson'', Brad is great, and then, the rest of the work will be handed over to him, I just need to follow his advice." Jiang Mingliang's answer made Stevens laugh out loud, some He patted Jiang Mingliang's back twice proudly.

"Thank you issac for putting me and Sir Alex Ferguson together. It's a great opportunity for me to coach the Nets. Rebuilding this team requires everyone's efforts. I have been telling my players , everyone works harder in their respective positions, and the team will move forward. Our players have great talent, everyone knows George, Lopez. We also have Bledsoe, and Anderson , and there are many great boys, I am not surprised, nor satisfied with our current results." Picking up the microphone, Stevens said seriously.
