Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

Chapter 80 The Grizzlies Lose Again?General Manager Wallace: My intestines are so green!
The Sonics, who were not favored by the outside world, won two consecutive victories, and coach Lu Yong once again became a man of the league.

When asked by a reporter how he felt about leading the team to winning streak, Lu Yong joked with a smile: "The players played very well. They teamed up to play a strong offensive firepower. As a coach, I just followed suit."

Although they said so, the reporters on the scene knew very well that the sudden improvement of the Sonics in the new season was not due to the players, but to the offensive system arranged by Lu Yong.

If you really want to talk about following the glory, it should also be the players.

The reporter asked again: "In just one summer, you made this supersonic team complete a radical change, and its offensive firepower leapt to the top of the league. How did you do it?"

"Because this team itself has great potential, I just find a way to activate the potential of the players, that's all."

Lu Yong was very low-key when answering questions tonight, but the Supersonic players mentioned him emphatically in the interview, and almost praised the head coach to the sky.

Noah said: "Lu is the best coach I have ever met. He is a capable person and will arrange tactics according to the characteristics of the players. I am very happy to be able to play under Lu Shuai in the rookie season. This may be the luckiest in my life. one thing."

The reporter asked: "What kind of person is Lu Shuai in the team? Supersonic players seem to respect him?"

Noah looked back at the coach and said with a smile: "Of course, everyone respects Lu Shuai very much, because he will care about the state and emotions of every player. Lu is a person full of sincerity, and you can learn a lot from him. , not only in basketball, but also in the trivial matters of life."

Delonte West said: "Jokin is right. Lu Shuai is a very careful person. He will use the timeout time to care about the emotions and status of the players. If it were not for Lu Shuai's encouragement tonight, it would be difficult for me to find him in the second half." Back to self-confidence. He is really a very good coach, and Lu Shuai is the one who deserves the most credit for the team's two consecutive victories."

In an interview, Durant said: "Lu told me to stand on the court with confidence at all times. To be a leader, ability alone is not enough. I have been working hard to be what he said. I hope that in the future I can Playing under Lu Shuai."

That night, news about Lu Yong and the Supersonics successfully reached the top of the trending searches, attracting discussions and analysis from many experts.

Scoring 120+ points in two consecutive games, this kind of offensive firepower is astonishing, even more terrifying than the Suns, which ranked first in the league last season.

Durant and Noah, the two first-round picks in the 07 draft, also became popular. Their abilities and talents were appreciated by the outside media, and they joined forces to enter the top five rookie rankings.

Among them, Durant, who averaged 20+ points per game, ranked first with a crushing advantage. With the No. [-] pick Greg Oden being reimbursed for the season due to injury, he is considered to be the most promising rookie of the year. people.

The supersonic's large number of three-point shots and defensive counterattacks run counter to the current mainstream style of play in the league. Although there are voices that question the supersonic style of play, Lu Yong's coaching level has been generally recognized by fans.

Whether serving as an assistant coach in the Grizzlies or joining the Supersonics as the head coach, Lu Yong has brought changes to the team. The offensive firepower has been greatly improved, which is enough to prove his excellent coaching ability.

After defeating the Warriors, the Sonics returned to Seattle by plane, and the team got two days to rest.

Lu Yong did not arrange additional training for the players. He was quite satisfied with the Sonics' current tactical execution, so he simply took a day off and let the players rest at home by themselves.

On the 5th, the team will usher in the first game at home. The opponent is the Denver Nuggets led by Iverson and Anthony. Their strength should not be underestimated.

The next night, the defending champion Grizzlies lost again.

81 to 93, was beaten by another opponent, the Spurs, who were eliminated in the playoffs last year, and suffered a two-game losing streak at the start.

After Gasol won the MVP of the regular season, he was a little bit drifting. He lacked training during the offseason, resulting in a weight gain of 5 kilograms, which has not been reduced yet.

After the start of the new season, Gasol's statistics have declined significantly. Compared with last year, he is much stronger, but he is a little less agile.

这场他对位蒂姆-邓肯被打爆了，全场出战38分钟，17投仅5中，罚球5中4，得到14分7篮板4助攻1封盖。

The data seems to be good, but the hit rate is only a poor 29.4%, and Duncan knocked him on the ground and output crazily, with no power to fight back.

Mike - Miller's efficiency is good, 6 of 3 three-pointers, 50% hit rate.

However, Fratello doesn't like players shooting too many three-pointers. Miller's average number of shots per game has dropped sharply this season. He only scored 12 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in this game.

Fans can see that the Grizzlies' offensive firepower has weakened this season. The score in two consecutive games was below 90, and the slow pace of the game was ugly.

邓肯今晚全面压制住了常规赛MVP保罗-加索尔，16投9中，罚球8中7，得到25分12篮板3助攻1抢断2封盖，告诉“加嫂”究竟谁才是这个联盟里最顶尖的内线。

Lu Yong took the time to watch the live broadcast of the game, and sat on the sofa in the apartment feeling anxious for Fratello.

Gay, a talented rookie, was obviously sitting on the bench, but Fratello just didn't use it, and let the rough guy Swift and Warrick share the playing time. The angry fans called Warrick Fratello his dear father!
Lu Yong's first suggestion when he joined the Grizzlies coaching staff last year was to reduce Warrick's tactical position and replace him with Ariza, Gay, and Eddie Jones.

Because he knew that Warrick was a player who couldn't be supported by mud, and it was enough to play in the summer league and abuse games. Once he played a tough battle, his flaws were too obvious, and he couldn't be reused at all.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Yong left this summer, Fratello re-activated his favorite tough guy type Warrick. This operation will never be done without a cerebral thrombosis in ten years.

After the game, the stressed Fratello attended the press conference.

He looked a bit decadent with a chicken coop on his head, and the red blood in his eyes proved that he hadn't slept well recently.

In the face of the media, he attributed the loss to Pau Gasol's decline in state, and his weight soared due to his lack of hard training during the offseason.

The craft of throwing pot is still as proficient as ever, the familiar formula, the familiar taste, the taste is really good!

Thinking back to when Lu Yong had just left the Grizzlies coaching staff in the summer, Fratello still wanted to lead the team to win the championship and slap the media in the face, proving to the outside world that he is the soul of this Grizzlies team.

As a result, just after the start of the new season, he was severely taught a lesson by reality, and lost to the Mavericks and Spurs, two losers in last year's playoffs.

Only Fratello himself knows how bitter it is to be hanged and beaten.

The media took advantage of the two-game losing streak of the Grizzlies to bring up the rhythm of the Sonics, and general manager Chris Wallace became the most depressed person in the management.

He knew that Lu Yong was a talented coach and was very important to the Grizzlies, but he didn't expect that the team's offense would be so rotten as soon as he left.

If he had known that the team's hips would become like this in the new season, Wallace would have to keep Lu Yong on his knees and kowtow, and directly fire the "champion coach" Fratello. He would rather bear the infamy than care.

It's a pity that there is no medicine for regret in the world.

Watching the supersonic next door being taken away by Lu Yong forcefully, and then looking back at Fratello's imprisoned constipation attack, Wallace even regretted his bowels.
