"Coach, you didn't come to me to teach me how to form a clique, right?"
After the favorability level was turned on, the name Fei Che called Lin Yu changed.
"Of course not. I want to replace Chaney as the starter and let Legler be the starting shooting guard, but I need your help."
Lin Yu's words made Fei Che's eyes light up.
Chaney is also a member of the Webb Howard faction. Although he and Speedy are backcourt partners, the two have no communication on the court. This can be seen from the last game against Green Kai.
Speedy couldn't help but think deeply. He had helped Legler, so he was one of his own. And if Legler could permanently replace Chaney in the starting lineup, wouldn't it mean that the Bullets' starting five would be occupied by his own faction? Three?
It has to be said that Speedy Car has a talent for palace fighting. If he can enter the palace, he will be made a concubine.
"How to help?"
"Play a double pick-and-roll with Legler in the backcourt. You are good at breaking through and attacking and distributing the ball. Legler is good at three-pointers without the ball. You two are a perfect backcourt partner, at least more suitable than Chaney."
"It's very convincing. I'll give it a try in tomorrow night's game."
After Fei Che thought for a moment, he nodded in agreement.
"How about practicing a double pick-and-roll today?" Lin Yu said with a smile.
"Do you still need to practice such low-level tactics? I played in the Princeton system for four years with the Trail Blazers. I can find pick-and-roll points with my eyes closed."
"Even if it doesn't work, it's definitely not my problem."
The Princeton tactic is definitely not the best tactic. After all, no one in the NBA has ever won a championship with this tactic.
However, the Princeton system has extremely high requirements for players' tactical execution ability. Players who can persist in playing Princeton for several years must have first-class tactical execution ability. In fact, Webber later went to the Kings to play Princeton and gradually became a first-line super giant. .
Speedy also seemed to have high regard for Princeton, and his face was full of pride when he mentioned it.
…
In the following time, Lin Yu tried his best to greet Fei Che and wanted to increase Fei Che's favorability.
The two passives of Attack Aura and Perseverance are ineffective against Speed. He can neither shoot three-pointers nor is he a center. Only Focus Aura is effective on him, which can at least improve his stealing ability.
It's a pity that the trick of asking for help has no effect on speeding cars. Lin Yu was busy for a while, but his favorability score was still 10 points.
…
On Thursday afternoon, hours before tipoff, the Bullets and Hornets each held pregame press conferences.
Since Dave Cowens took over as head coach of the Hornets, this has almost become a tradition for both teams.
"Ben's recent team training is in great shape. We have the strongest frontcourt in the league. How can the Hornets beat us?"
"To be honest, I don't think Dave's coaching ability is better than that of 26-year-old Lin Yu."
"This game will definitely be a one-sided massacre!"
Unseld attended the press conference alone and spoke confidently in front of the media.
"Unilateral massacre? Wes hasn't changed in all these years. He's always soft below, and his mouth is always hard above."
"Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about his legs, the elephant legs you call them."
"Just hearing what Wes said, who would have thought that they would be ranked tenth in the Eastern Conference?"
Cowens' sales are much better than Unseld's. Unseld looks like an old farmer who collects dung. Cowens is elegant and modest, and has a bit of Marlon Brando's temperament when sitting on the stage.
The two old men quarreled not once or twice, but every time they met, they had to pinch each other. The reporters were used to it.
At 7:30 in the evening, Lin Yu announced the starting lineup for this game in the locker room.
"What? Carl is not the starter?"
"Lin, you should know what this game means to Unseld. If we lose, he might kill us."
Weber frowned. Karl, also known as Chaney, was his little brother in the team. The younger brother was not guaranteed to start, so he, the big brother, had to help him no matter what.
But he was not a fool. After seeing Lin Yu's methods yesterday, he didn't want to have a head-on conflict with Lin Yu, so he found a high-sounding reason.
It's not that he doesn't dare to conflict with Lin Yu, but he doesn't want to. Weber is not afraid of a new coach like Lin Yu.
Brother Legs felt nervous. Will Webber mess up the starting opportunity that he finally looked forward to?
"Chris, the Hornets' backcourt bug Bogues and Dell Curry, because of their height, are better at defensive breakthroughs than shooting."
"I think Tim's style of play is more advantageous against the Hornets."
"As for you saying that Mr. Unseld will cause trouble if you lose, don't worry, I will take full responsibility for the loss."
Weber's reasons were high-sounding, and of course Lin Yu couldn't resist him. The reasons he gave were also very reasonable.
However, if you really dig into Lin Yu's words, you will know how nonsense he is.
It's true that the Hornets' backcourt is good at defensive breakthroughs, but not good at defensive shooting, but Chaney is a 201 cm tall swingman, much taller than the leg guy, and it's not like Chaney can't shoot, he just I can't shoot three-pointers, but I can still shoot mid-range shots.
"Well, you're the head coach, you have the final say."
Weber shrugged and stopped arguing. If he won the game, he could pretend that nothing happened, but if he lost the game, he would definitely stand up for his brother Chaney.
Brother Leg was ecstatic and wished he could hug Lin Yu and kiss him twice. How long had it been since he had started? Two years? Three years?
He secretly swore in his heart that he would perform well tonight no matter what, and he would never let Lin Yu down.
…
Half an hour later, players from both sides began to enter the stadium.
This time, the fans of the Bullets home team were much gentler and did not curse Paulin as much as they did last time.
After the referee's whistle sounded, the starting players from both sides began to take the field.
The Hornets can achieve the fifth record in the Eastern Conference, and the lineup certainly has something.
The starting center is veteran veteran Verratti Divac, the fourth position is the notorious Anthony Mason Jr., the third position is All-Star Glenn Rice, and the second position is Curry's father Dell Curry. Bugs Boggs at No. 1.
Each of these five people has something to say. For example, the 1.6-meter-tall bug Burgess is like a chicken every time he plays against the Bullets.
He has hatred for the Bullets, and the grudge between him and Unseld is a long story.
Glenn Rice was selected to the All-Star last season. If history does not change due to Lin Yu's time travel, he will even be able to beat Jordan to win the All-Star MVP at the All-Star Weekend in another half month.
Despite the small letters in his name, which sounds soft and sweet, Mason is actually a member of the notorious New York gangster. He played for the New York Knicks in the past few seasons, along with Ewing and Oakley. He has done many evil things and beaten countless players on the court.
Dell Curry was famous for his accurate three-pointers during his playing career, and the two sons he gave birth to were better than his former peers.
The old fritter Divac was acquired by the Hornets in exchange for Kobe. From a God's perspective, the transaction certainly went to my grandma's family, but in the current era, the Hornets did not lose at all. If they really chose Kobe, the Hornets would have lost money. It is definitely not possible to achieve fifth place in the Eastern Conference.
The Hornets' lineup is very strong, but Lin Yu is still sure of winning tonight's game.
He couldn't even imagine where the Hornets' winning point was. No matter which of the five positions on the field, the Bullets had the upper hand.
Big Ben and Divac executed a jump ball, and as expected, Big Ben missed the jump ball again.
Bugs Boggs controlled the ball and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt. The speedster lowered his center of gravity with a solemn expression and was ready.
Against the 160-centimetre-tall bug, any point guard in the league has to work hard.
It's not that Xiaochong is very strong, but no matter how others beat him, it is normal in the eyes of the fans. But if Xiaochong hits one or two good shots, he will suffer the same crime. It has become a stain in life that is difficult to wash away.
Ewing was labeled a bug once, and even thirty years later, he would still be teased by the host when he appeared on TV.
The ball reached the frontcourt, and Xiaochong found Glen Rice's position and passed it straight.
Rice raised his hand and shot a three-pointer, but unfortunately Webber interfered and failed to hit. Ben at the basket easily collected the rebound.
Even a player like Radia was defeated by Big Ben. Divac, who is also a white center, is much worse than Radia, and is naturally no match for Big Ben.
It’s the bullet’s attack round.
Speedy was extremely cautious in controlling the ball, not daring to give Xiaochong the slightest opportunity to gamble and steal.
The leg guy trotted over quickly and set a pick-and-roll for Speedy. Taking advantage of this moment of opportunity, Speedy stepped forward and made a mid-range shot.
"Uh-huh!"
The mid-range shot hit, and the Speedster got off to a good start.
After all, Legler also played for the Jazz for one year. The Jazz's outside offense mainly relies on pick-and-rolls. How could his pick-and-roll skills be poor?
In the Hornets' offense, Mason Jr. also scored.
It's the Bullets' round again, and this time the speedster returns the favor, with a fake pass from the frontcourt, and a quick pick-and-roll for Legleb after the ball is released.
"Uh-huh!"
Legler shot a three-pointer almost without interference. The three-point attribute as high as 96.5 helped him hit the three-pointer steadily.
This was just the beginning. Under everyone's astonished gaze, the three members of the Bullets, Big Ben, Speedy and Leg Brother, formed an iron triangle.
The speedster and the leg guy were playing a two-man spin, picking and rolling each other, and whoever had the chance would take action.
If the shot misses, grab the offensive rebound under the basket, fly deep inside to control the ball, and continue to play two-man.
On the contrary, Bullets twin stars Webb and Howard became spectators on the court. After the opening, the two played some roles on the defensive end, but they had no sense of presence on the offensive end.
Unseld was dumbfounded and rubbed his eyes, suspecting that he was delusional.
The two biggest stars in the team are not involved in the offense. How can the offensive rhythm of his team be so smooth? Almost a 10-point advantage in half a quarter?
What happened to the boy named Legler? Five three-pointers in half a quarter and four of them? !
