Chapter 793 You guys are better than the Knicks

The 76ers' ten-game winning streak did not attract much attention.

Because there is a team in the West that is doing the same thing -- the Golden State Warriors, who rose unexpectedly and added a new flavor to the league.

When Mark Jackson got out of class last season, the Warriors were sullen.Because Jackson and the management do not deal with each other, but he is quite popular among the players, similar to Rivers, everyone wants to play for him.

Then Steve Kerr came along, and as soon as he came, he dropped a few points.For example, he wants the Warriors to play a little triangle offense and pass the ball like the Spurs did last season.

He is entitled to say that because he has three rings with the triangle offense and two rings with the Spurs.

At the same time, he also dealt with the Warriors' two super backcourt players.

Especially Stephen Curry, he wants Curry to reduce difficult shots.

There is no need to make such difficult shots every time—or, in other words, to reduce "dribbling around the screen and flashing a line of gaps to force shots".

He hopes to create more opportunities for Curry to make easy shots.

Say, everyone will say, how to implement it?

In the first week of the new season, although the Warriors made a lot of turnovers, they averaged 74 more passes per game than last season.They drive less with the ball and have more pick-and-roll passes.

Klay Thompson's 29 points per game in Week 24 is no accident: The Warriors are trying to play more pick-and-cut transitions.Therefore, Thompson averaged nearly [-] points per game, which is one of the witnesses of the Warriors system.

The same is true for Curry. Last season, 55% of Curry's three-pointers were single-handed strong shots, but this season has reduced to 35%.He has more off-ball moves and off-ball jumpers, and opponents can no longer implement a "kill Curry, empty Wall, and the Warriors' offense is over" defensive strategy, because the Warriors' firepower has been dispersed.

In addition to these ingenious changes, Cole also boldly let the all-star insider David Lee sit on the bench, and promoted the all-around short insider Drummond Green with unlimited energy to enter the starting lineup. With Drummond, Curry, Wall, and Thompson, an amazing chemical reaction burst out.

What's more, the Warriors still have two All-Stars, Iguodala and Bogut, sitting on the court.

It was Cole's initiative to sit on the bench for Iguodala. Before that, he was the starting No. [-], which squeezed Thompson's development space.Kerr asked him to come off the bench, and he had no complaints, just like David Lee.

The Warriors are very similar to the 76ers, with young core players, explosive lineup depth, and selfless chemistry.

Although they haven't played head-to-head with the 76ers, countless experts said that if the Big Three of the Cavaliers can't enter the state as soon as possible, then the biggest obstacle for the 76ers on the road to defending the title is the Warriors.

Although the 76ers haven't met the Warriors yet, they have already met some interesting opponents.

These include the Timberwolves and Bucks.

The Timberwolves are sitting on the No. [-] pick. After playing against Andrew Wiggins, Wei Xia felt more and more like Rudy Gay.However, his body is a level stronger than Guy's.

Indeed, this is a super giant talent.

But his technical reserve is very problematic, but he still left an impressive dunk in the game against the 76ers.

Wiggins jumped up like a helicopter, which was terrifying.

Wescha was even more impressed by the little Greek monsters of the Bucks.

The Greek looks like a player created by fans playing 2K tricks, with that height and shape, he actually plays the No. [-] position.

对76人,希腊人打了36分钟,拿下17分8篮板6助攻。

As a point guard, although he has not been able to use his physical advantage to play anyone out of position, he has shown the potential to play five positions.

He still lacks a lot of things. Every time he hits the basket in a collision, he always does not make enough moves. He is easy to drop the ball in dense areas.

Odom said the Greek was like his younger self.But when Odom was young, his team, and himself, did not have the conditions to develop his full potential. The Greeks are different.The Bucks have already discovered that they dug up a gem with a first-round pick that doesn't even count as a lottery pick.

So when the Greek completed an exaggerated full-court counter-attack dunk, Weixia ignited himself like all challenged superstars. After scoring only 11 points in the first half, he blasted 42 points in the second half and scored 53 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists in the game.

It was on the road, at the home court of the Bucks, and the fans chanted MVP.

At the end of the game, the Greek took the initiative to show his favor.

Wei Xia also gave the opponent a very high evaluation in the post-match interview: "The Bucks fans who have Giannis are happy, cherish this time. After many years, you will know that the happiest thing is not the moment when he became a superstar, but every shining moment during his growth, and your infinite imagination."

As long as there are young people playing well, Wei Xia will not begrudge his praise.

He's 30, turning 31, and he doesn't want to be as annoying as he used to be.That was fun, but it won't win him any more.Let's save the annoying things for the playoffs, at least in the regular season, you have to have the demeanor of your seniors.

Wei Xia is both looking forward to and vigilant about the development of these young people.

He knows that the waves behind will push the waves ahead, but he never wants to be the one pushed.

So he has to pay attention to the growth of these people and regard them as future enemies.Now he knows how many flaws Wiggins' skills have, and that the Greek is being hesitantly placed in various positions by the coaching staff.

However, apart from these few people, there are not many players in the league who can really be called the future.

Two days later, the Eastern Conference will focus on the battle.

The 76ers played against the Cavaliers.

Before the rise of the Warriors, the Cavaliers were recognized as the biggest opponents of the 76ers on the road to defending the title.

All fans expect the Cavaliers to bring something, but the answer they give is embarrassing.

James seems to be back when he first went to the Heat;
Owen is still the same;
Love can't play the prestige of the second-team players, but he has shaken out the problem of tens of thousands of people on the defensive end.

The 76ers already knew before the game that although Cavaliers coach David Blatt has been teaching in Europe for a long time, his coaching philosophy is not new to NBA players.

Then Princeton.

Since Princeton is going to be played, inside support is very important.Love seems to be a good fit, and Irving can also play the role of Mike Bibby.

What about James?Where is he standing?
This is a problem.

Although you have enough people to run the system, if the most important players in the team can't find their place under the system, how should they deal with themselves?

In the first ten games of the season, the Cavaliers had 6 wins and 4 losses.

In the focus game against the 76ers, James handed the ball directly to the bottom corner and stood there.

Gordon Hayward never found it so easy to match up with James.

In the first half, the 76ers' fierce offense hammered the Cavaliers' heads.

Leading the Cavaliers by 18 points at halftime.

Brad had to change his formation. He replaced West, one of the two backcourts, but James was still not alive and well.

Wei Xia discovered the problem of this team.

The new Big Three haven't figured out how to adapt to each other's presence. They can only keep Love in the high pick-and-roll, but when there is no ball, they are not sure what each other should do.

When James first arrived in Miami, it took a year to find a balance of ball possession with Wade-Wade also sacrificed himself as an off-ball player.

The focus of the game that fans are looking forward to, for the Cavaliers, is still a battle of tactical status balance within the team.

Everyone has to find their own position and recognize who is the big daddy, who is the younger brother, and who is the tool man.

James is a decent person after all, he knows where he should be, but some people don't know, so he can't just say it outright?Is that what decent people do?He couldn't speak, and he didn't want to get emotional, so he showed a team spirit, stood still at the bottom corner, and relaxed with "the stage is for you".

But without the cooperation of James, how can Love and Irving, the two players who can't even touch the end of the playoffs under their respective leadership, work together?

This is the emperor's mind.

Although some fans will use this to attack James' enthusiasm, and the Cavaliers did lose because of this, all this is just the painful period that the Cavaliers must go through before they become a complete team from stragglers.

Those in the media who support James call this process "LeBron's habit of letting his teammates learn from failures."

Although the media people beautified James' actions to the point of making goosebumps fall all over the place, they still let the fans see the problem.

Therefore, recently, there are not a few fans who criticize James for not working hard.

The fans and broadcasters who were expecting a big battle only saw a unilateral massacre.

"LeBron said he was eager to bring home a championship, but he had no fight against the defending champion tonight, only scored 11 points, and then the Cavaliers lost."

"Does he really want to win?"

The complaint from the "Philadelphia Inquirer" is the most direct hit: "In the opening game, the 76ers beat the Knicks. In that game, Wish played 29 minutes. In the game against the Cavaliers last night, Wish only played 26 minutes."

The official Twitter account of The New York Times took advantage of this and said: "Everyone, let me translate what this passage means for you. It's actually very simple-Cavs, you are better than the Knicks!"

Then this tweet was swiped by Zhan Hei with James' famous crying emoji.

The 76ers maintained a winning streak, while in the West, the Warriors lost to the Lakers in an upset.

Bryant's 30 points, Parker's best game since his rookie year, Gasol dominating the paint -- these are all objective factors, the main factor being that the Warriors have a game every season that they don't know how to throw a basketball into Staples' hoop.
