beast basketball

Naturally, Stephen didn't know all of this. His daily training had taken up most of his time, and the rest of the time he had to watch the videos sent to him by Gretel. Recently, Stephen has been learning the post-up singles of Jordan, Kobe, Pierce and others Breaking down the action, while learning how to attack, Stephen also mastered how to defend the offensive method of post-up play, which does not delay the two.

Soon, it was the day of the game against the Atlanta Hawks. During the warm-up, Stephen saw Joe Johnson. On this warm-up court, he looked very introverted. The data of [-] assists per rebound, and the shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage are above [-]%.

When the Suns were not willing to give him a big contract, and he himself was more willing to be a team leader in a weak team, the Suns first signed him a five-year contract worth nearly 7000 million U.S. dollars. The Eagles traded Poisdio, two first-round picks and $490 million in salary space for a trade, which is one of the biggest deals in this Husseis except for the big deal led by the Heat.

This is the guy who needs to get a salary of more than 1000 million U.S. dollars every year. Stephen looked left and right, but he didn't see anything special about the other party. No one in the Spurs except Duncan can get this high salary. The guy is better than Ginobili?can not tell.

When it was time for the game, Stephen still didn't find out that Joe Johnson had any outstanding performances that would allow him to get a salary of more than 1000 million. It was nothing more than accurate shooting, better timing of cutting, and occasionally passing a good ball. On the defensive end, he was very active, and Ginobili didn't please him under his hands.

But is it worth 1000 million?Stephen was very puzzled, he seemed to be able to do it with his own efforts, but this guy is not greedy for credit, and he cooperates quite well with his teammates. As the boss of the team, he seems very calm.

When Popovich replaced the last game's substitute lineup, Stephen was still sitting on the court. Stephen wanted to ask, isn't the three-game suspension penalty over?Why don't you let yourself play, but thinking about your status in the team, you still shut your mouth wisely. You are originally a substitute, and whether you can play or not depends entirely on the coach's wishes. It is stipulated that the position in the coach's heart must be greatly reduced, and it is normal not to let oneself go up.

well!Stephen sighed a long time in his heart. Although there is no regret or anything, Stephen will never regret anything he has done. What is the use of regret for what has happened? It is better to think about the future. It's a big loss to do this.

It's not about money, it's mainly about the status of the team, especially in the eyes of the coach. It seems that I will work harder to show myself in training in the future, and if I have the opportunity to play, I will use a hundred times more effort. Performance, strive to return to the main lineup as soon as possible.

The entire first half was over, and the Spurs only led the Eagles by a slight advantage. In the second half, Al Harrington suddenly showed his power, fired continuously from the outside, and made three three-pointers. Overtaking the score, Robert Horry obviously couldn't keep up with the opponent. Popovich swept across the floor and stool, and suddenly fixed his gaze on Stephen.

Seeing the head coach waving at him, Stephen felt a burst of ecstasy. He thought he had no chance to play in this game. It turned out that the coach still remembered him. It was great. In this game, Michael Finley and Bren Tebari still didn't play. Popovich would rather let Max and Sanders play than Stephen. Stephen really felt that there was no hope, so when he heard that he could play, Stephen didn't care about the tasks assigned to him by the coach. It was very different. I stood on the sidelines with excitement and excitement, waiting for the opportunity of a dead ball to replace Robert Horry.

Stephen is not familiar with most of the players in the league. He doesn't even know each other, let alone the opponent's playing style. He hurriedly stood on the court, and Stephen only had one task, which was to restrict Al Harrington. the shot.

And Stephen's understanding of Al Harrington is limited to the moment he saw it just now. Stephen only knows that he is like Robert Horry. Li is farther away from the restricted area and takes longer.

But this is a good thing for Stephen. If Stephen is allowed to defend a player who is nearly ten centimeters taller than him in the penalty area, it will naturally be very difficult, and the inside defense is different from the outside defense or inside defense. Stephen He's not good at it either, but there's no problem with outside defense. Although the opponent is taller than Stephen, Stephen has a jumping bonus, and Stephen can use close defense and doesn't give the opponent room to shoot.

To strengthen the comparison between Al Harrington and Robert Horry, it is fast and flexible, but it is not enough to compare with Stephen. When Stephen played for 2 and a half minutes, Al Harrington only got one shot. , and still barely made a shot and missed a hit, which fully proved that Stephen's perimeter defense ability is indeed extraordinary.

Moreover, after Stephen came on the court, while locking Harrington, he also disrupted the dynamic offensive tactics of the Eagles. The coach of the Eagles is Woodson, and Popovich can be regarded as senior brothers. Riblan, but the two people learned and understood differently.

Although both of them emphasize the role of defense very much, their defense is different. As for offense, the difference is even greater. Woodson plays a dynamic offensive tactic, that is, everyone attacks, and all players are like that. A player who is very mobile and flexible, and then keeps interspersing and picking and rolling.

This tactic sounds very powerful, but when it is actually implemented, once a link stagnates, it will affect the entire team, and it will change from a dynamic attack to a single play, and the offense will immediately become chaotic. Seeing that the surprise soldier he had played had a remarkable effect, Popovich smiled below.

Popovich has always believed that in terms of offense, there is no absolutely perfect tactic, and there is no immutable tactic. In addition to the importance of defense first, he is very open and easy to learn in terms of offense. He used to pay attention to I have played European basketball for a long time, and learned the tactical thinking of the head coach of the Greek Panathinaikos Zarimi Obradovic through game videos, so Popovich's tactics are very changeable.

Especially after seeing Michael D'Antoni's "running and bombing" tactic from Europe, Popovich has also done a lot of analysis on this tactic. The battlefield is not very suitable, but it is not a problem to play such a tactic in the regular season.

Generally speaking, Popovich's basketball concept is greatly influenced by his two masters. On defense, he learned the theory of Larry Brown, and on offense, he likes old Nelson. Change the tactics according to the characteristics of the players, let the tactics match the players, not let the players match the tactics.

After discovering that Al Harrington was affecting the team's offense under Stephen's restrictions, Woodson replaced Harrington with Marvin Williams, Stephen's old acquaintance. For this guy, Stephen But even more familiar, although the two played only one game, they left a deep impression on Stephen.

However, as soon as the two of them met, Stephen immediately felt that Marvin Williams seemed to have regressed compared to when he was in school, especially his offense was not as sharp as before, but Stephen quickly After thinking about it, it should be self-improvement.

At this time, the commentator on the scene was also talking about this matter. Judging from his performance after entering the league, Marvin Williams was far from his No. [-] pick, especially the speed of improvement after entering the league. After Fabi and Stephen entered the league, almost every time he appeared on the court, he gave people a bright feeling. He improved himself every game, but Marvin Williams still showed it like he did in college basketball like that.

Although the status of the two people in the team is basically the same, they are both in the eighth and ninth picks in the rotation, but the meaning is different. The Spurs are a championship team, and a rookie can stably enter the main rotation. That is already a great recognition of the player's strength, not to mention that Stephen is still a second-round pick.

As for the Eagles, it is a team that is rebuilding. The boss of the team has just arrived, which means that everything is starting from scratch. A second-best rookie is in the eight or nine rotation lineup. It cannot be justified. Bogut is already the team's inside core, Chris Paul is already the team's entire core, although Desheng Williams' playing time is not stable, he has also secured the position of the team's starting point guard. In comparison, Marvin Williams' performance is indeed not worthy of his pick, and the performance of these rookies from the University of North Carolina is not much better.

After playing for more than 5 minutes, under Stephen's defense, Marvin Williams only got two shots, and he missed both shots. It was another old acquaintance of Stephen, Sally from the University of Arizona. Stoudemire, a second-round pick like Stephen, played very well against Van Exel, shot decisively, and made several shots in a row, allowing the scores of the two teams to advance staggered. It looks evenly matched.

But when the main force of the Spurs came on the field, the score was overtaken immediately. Stephen played only 22 minutes and [-] seconds, got three rebounds, one steal and one block, and scored none. This was because Stephen was afraid of annoying the coach. He didn't dare to take the initiative to attack by himself, and Max and Sanders didn't pass the ball to Stephen, so Stephen didn't have any chance to score. He only took one shot and missed the basket.

But this is not important to Stephen, as long as he can still return to the basketball court, that's enough. After experiencing the team's disciplinary punishment, although it is a lesson for Stephen, it also made Stephen understand how to play the game of basketball. In the team, what can be done and what can't be done.
