Chapter 30 [Release water]

Yang Rui didn't expect such a good result with the bold use of people. After all, the Knicks' starting strength was significantly higher.His original plan was to just use Houston to let Van Gundy see Houston's core potential.

As a result, he found that it was not that Van Gundy would not use Houston, but that no one would use it on offense except Ewing.He is still in the stage of single-core offense, so Ewing's state is average, and the offense will not work.

In Yang Rui's previous life, after Ewing's serious injury was reimbursed, Van Gundy was forced to switch to the perimeter dual-core game. During the Rockets period, the Yao and Mai combination also took turns to play singles.

The defensive coach is just sticking a sticker on Van Gundy's brain door, and seeing that he is not in the flow at all.

Yang Rui felt that he couldn't go on like this anymore. Van Gundy is the head coach. This result is a bit hurtful and will affect Van Gundy's prestige in the team.

It may not be a good thing for Yang Rui. The core face 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. You can arrange the offensive and defensive tactics."

"Ah? Why?" Thibodeau was taken aback.

"Everyone is a teaching assistant, I can't just take care of myself and let you watch, right?" Yang Rui shrugged.

When Xibodu was happy, he almost used Sakamoto's secret technique and jumped sideways repeatedly.With vigorous movements back and forth, he can make the wind blow.

Of course, if Xibodu jumped like this, he would never be cool, and it should be similar to the screen when logging in to the QQ number in the lower right corner of the computer.

"Okay, then you can rest for a while and leave it to me." Thibodeau happily told the players about tactics.

When the players came on the court, Thibodeau felt that something was wrong...

Taking the lead at halftime, Yang Rui has proved his strength. Now that he has given the right to him, he feels very comfortable, and the relationship between the two is closer, but Yang Rui's doing this seems to be deliberately letting go.

If they win Van Gundy's starting team with a substitute in the end, the head coach will lose face, and even if he admits their ability, he will feel uncomfortable.

Now that Thibodeau is leading the team, the problem is left to him, and everyone can only be happy if they lose.

Xibodu glanced at Yang Rui and shuddered.

Is this guy really 23 years old?Compared with him, I am 39 and still as simple as a teenager!

In the second half, Thibodeau followed some of Yang Rui's tactics, constantly creating dislocation attacking opportunities through off-the-ball screening.

On the side of the white team, Ewing and Johnson found the feeling, unstoppable, and reversed the score in the third quarter.In the final quarter, both sides went to the bench, and in the end, the white team won 105 to 124.

Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief without a smile on his face. He knew very well that Yang Rui was in the audience in the second half and did not arrange for tactical adjustments.

Bringing a group of marginal people to fight like this, if you change teams... Van Gundy can't think about it.

Everyone walked to the stadium together and waved to the fans around, and the curtain call of the training session was announced.

The players were interviewed on the sidelines.

Many reporters surrounded Ben Wallace. His performance is really eye-catching. Although there are no statistics, he grabbed a lot of rebounds and blocked beautiful shots. Ewing and Johnson have learned it.

Houston, Atkins together to ensure the attack, the same eye-catching.

Atkins made both Ward and Childs feel threatened.The Atkins are weak defensively and short, but they have the speed and penetrating ability they lack.

Even Bowen was interviewed by reporters. He made two three-pointers today, and the defending Mills only scored 2 points. He smiled and talked to reporters about his thoughts.

In Yang Rui's impression, the Spurs' Bowen was a gloomy and reticent person, but the current Bowen is not like that at all.

The environment makes people, Popovich is a serious coach, and the Spurs are a place rich in facial paralysis.In contrast, the Knicks' atmosphere is not bad right now.

Van Gundy praised Yang Rui in an interview. "I believe that the Knicks will make a breakthrough this season. I have a very good assistant coach who has brought a lot of surprises to the team. Several players in the summer league have played very well."

The reporter asked: "Houston led the bench to take the lead in the first half. In the new season, will you consider giving him more ball rights?"

"Yes, he will be the core of the Knicks." Van Gundy replied without hesitation.

Before the game, Yang Rui recommended to make Houston the core of the team's perimeter. Van Gundy had some doubts. He played very well today. As long as he arranges tactics, his scoring ability seems to be not inferior to Ewing.

Ewing scored a lot of points today, his hit rate is not high, and his state is average.If he reduces the number of singles on the offensive end, he can focus more on the defensive end.

In fact, management greeted Van Gundy over the summer, and Ewing's role needs to change.He has hidden dangers of injury and is someone the team can't afford to hurt. He must control Ewing's playing time and ensure efficiency.

Van Gundy has always been a headache for the team's lack of attacking power. Yang Rui gave a solution during the interview, and it can make the inside and outside players have more cooperation.

Van Gundy is very clear that he needs Yang Rui, and he should arrange appropriate offensive tactics for Ewing and let others share the offensive pressure.

Yang Rui did not interview reporters, and the assistant coach was far less attractive than the star.The substitutes took the lead in the first half, and most of them automatically made up their minds that the players had outstanding strength and were in excellent condition.

He took the jersey from the sidelines to Houston. "Alan, help me sign your autograph. My friends and I like you very much. Just that handsome guy on the sidelines, if you don't come in or not, he is your fan."

Yang Rui pointed to Hunter and Jill, and they both waved to this side together.

Hunter was so excited that he shouted, "Alan, you are the best."

Fans love Houston a lot, and he's a recognized sportsman among blacks.Yang Rui said that the meaning of liking him is completely different. The assistant has communicated with Van Gundy for a long time, and it is easier for him to take the position, so Houston took the jersey seriously, placed it on the chair, and squatted on the ground with a signature pen to prepare to sign a beautiful sign.

"Jerry, sign what?"

"Never give up on your dreams!" Yang Rui smiled.

Houston savoured this sentence carefully, thought it was great, and wrote it down quickly, along with his own name, in elegant and unrestrained handwriting.

Manager Ernie walked to the sidelines and said to Yang Rui kindly, "Jerry, you have done a great job. Try to maintain this level in the new season and help the team."

"I will." Yang Rui gained a lot from a training session.

He has been recognized by the management, and some people even think that he is more capable than Van Gundy, and it is impossible not to be reused!
The management has affirmed his work, and he will have a certain right to speak in the team in the new season, instead of simply making suggestions and seeing Van Gundy's face.

This is very important for Yang Rui. He needs to learn defensive tactics. If Van Gundy is stubborn and uses last season's tactics, he must be angry.
