Westbrook felt a little dissatisfied. The head coach was too impatient. His performance was a little worse. It was fine not to let him start. Even his playing time was greatly reduced, so he found Durant and complained.

"Don't think so much, the coach didn't mean to target you on purpose, train well, maintain a good state, perform well when you can play, don't rush to make shots, listen to the starting tactics more often, and play as many tactics as possible , the starter must be yours." Durant patiently persuaded Westbrook.

Westbrook's situation is different from his own. When the team was reorganized and traded for Stephen, he had already determined that his position was irreplaceable. Although his position was lower than that of Stephen, after all, Stephen had already passed the finals. Test, and I am a rookie player.

But the team did not clarify the status of the two people, but they decided on their own. The irrelevant bullfight was just an introduction. Stephen showed his arrogance, and Durant was naturally a challenger. However, after one season, let alone challenging Stephen, the entire league has already accepted that Stephen is the active No.1 position, let alone him, and Durant doesn't think he has that ability.

However, although Stephen scored high, he didn't take many shots, and Stephen usually paid great attention to sharing the ball with Durant. Durant basically didn't feel that his ability was not fully utilized, but with Stephen, It is easier to score, so Durant put off his thoughts of competing with Stephen for the time being. Let's wait and see in two seasons. Anyway, it will be good before the end of the rookie contract.

If Durant feels oppressed and affects his own data, then this is unacceptable anyway, because no data means no big contract. Durant's goal is to, after the rookie contract ends, must Being able to get a maximum salary contract, now it seems that as long as you perform well, getting a maximum salary contract should not be a problem, especially after the team changes owners.

And I am very happy to play here. Stephen respects himself, and his position as the number two is very stable. Even if you seek to go to other teams, you may not be able to be the leader of the team, and you can also taste the victory. Feel the taste, follow these teammates to attack the championship together.

But Westbrook's situation is different. He is also a rookie, but he needs to face competition, not only Earl Watson's, but also Jarrett Jack. The playing time has declined again this season, so the position of point guard is a competition between three people, and Westbrook's advantage is not particularly obvious.

Although it is said that Westbrook has talent, sometimes talent does not necessarily translate into performance, and the situation of the team is different this season. Even without the trade of Yao Ming, the team has to attack the championship , will not give a rookie player too many opportunities, so if Westbrook cannot grasp the limited opportunities, he may even lose his main position.

If the coach gives you a chance, you should perform well, seize the opportunity, and strive for more opportunities to play. If the coach does not give yourself a chance, you should train hard, use the training state to improve your attitude, and at the same time actively integrate into this team, not only It's the tactical level, but everything.

Westbrook has a bit of aloof personality and a little high self-esteem. He only has a good relationship with Durant on the team and respects Stephen. To other people, it is very normal. This kind of mental state is very common for players, especially a player For rookie players, it is not very suitable, because when you distance yourself from others, others also shorten the distance from you, and basketball is a team sport that requires cooperation, especially active psychological cooperation. He is a point guard who is not familiar with his teammates, so how can he handle his duties well.

This is the difference between core players and role players. Core players, no matter tactics or anything, other players need to surround you. You don’t need to deliberately cooperate with others, but for role players, you can only cooperate with core players. , in order to survive in this team, otherwise, no matter how talented you are, unless the talent is high enough to impress the team to replace the core, otherwise you will decline, and the order of appearance will be lower and lower, otherwise you will have to leave the way.

Therefore, players must recognize their own positioning, and Westbrook lost his own positioning because of the start and explosion of the first two games. Coupled with the media's touting, he believed that he also represented the future of the Sonics. Unbalanced, the performance is not as good as usual.

The cultivation of young players is by no means a one-off thing, just like Dakomilicic, the second place in the [-] generation, can you say that he lacks talent? His height, physique, speed, dexterity, and strength have attracted many scouts, The head coach and general manager were all amazed, and the Detroit Pistons selected him with the second pick without hesitation, missing Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade.

Some people think that there is a problem with Larry Brown's use of him, or that Larry Brown doesn't like young players. This is very wrong. Before Larry Brown did not select Dakomilicic, he praised his talent several times. , and the choice of Dakomilicic was also approved by Larry Brown.

But the problem is that Larry Brown, worried that his self-confidence would be too inflated or lost in the prosperous America, adopted a method of killing Dakomilicic to train him, but Dakomilicic's character was not as he imagined. Dakomilicic, who was so tenacious and his self-confidence was severely damaged, basically played what he should have. At this time, Larry Brown did not reflect on his own mistakes, but pushed the problem on Dakomilicic's head .

Dakomilicic has become a typical failure, having almost the same experience as the famous "parallel importer" Kwame Brown, except that one encountered Larry Brown and the other encountered Michael Jordan.

Of course, another very important reason is that the whole team of the Detroit Pistons at that time was working hard for their own championship ring. Naturally, they had no patience and did not have the Dacomili who could stop and wait for a temporary disconnection. Hickey, just like that, a player with outstanding talent disappeared among the crowd, and there was no possibility of his success.

No matter how high or low the draft pick is, it just gives you a chance to compete with others. Nearly a hundred people participate in the draft every year, and only [-] of them can be selected, and usually only [-] to [-] of these [-] can get The team's contract, and there are definitely not so many players who retire every year, so although those who can enter the league are all the darlings, they also face a large degree of competition.

A team generally only has one or two maximum-salary players, and the entire league can add one to forty or fifty players. Every year, a rookie can get a maximum-salary contract. Even in the draft year, it usually does not exceed five. There are not even three words, so the higher you go, the more intense the competition.

A high draft pick just means that you have a relatively high starting point, and then you have to walk faster and more steadily than others to be able to walk at the forefront. Russell Westbrook thinks too much of himself , With a little performance, I feel that I am the protagonist of my life.

All high-ranking rookies have had core dreams, no one is an exception, but after entering the team, they must have a clear positioning, and with the status quo of the Sonics, there is obviously no room for him to rise, and the team He will not be given so much time and space.

Even Presti, who is very optimistic about him, did not position him as an indispensable main force of the team, but just a useful supplement. He did not ask Carlesimo to focus on training Westbrook, even when he knew After learning about this incident, he stood in Stephen's position instead.

Now for the team, the most important thing is to win as many games as possible in the regular season and go further in the playoffs. Apart from Stephen's performance, Yao Ming's integration into the team is also crucial. As for other , It’s all secondary. Watson performed very well last season, and the team’s loss is not the reason for his position. The team does not need this position to be strong, especially in terms of offense, because Stephen With Durant, and now he has another Yao Ming, how many offensive opportunities can be left for others.

A person who knows how to work hard to defend and can throw the ball when needed is enough. If you do too much, it will not benefit the Sonics. Although it is a bit of a waste for Westbrook His talent is a bit unfair to him, but the world is like this, there is no fairness at all.

After Durant's enlightenment, Westbrook's mood was a little calmer, and when this was reflected in training or games, people could see his offense. In this case, the team gave him a certain The time and opportunity, and he also seized the opportunity, the team returned to calm.

After beating the Phoenix Suns very hard, the Sonics have achieved [-] wins and [-] loss in this month, continuing to lead the entire league in the record list, and Stephen also undisputedly won the best player of the month The player's title.

At this time, Yao Ming also received a comprehensive diagnosis. After a careful consultation with the three-person team, he was considered to have completely recovered and there was no need to limit his playing time, but it was best not to It is better to play for such a long time, this is what Amirke said, but Chen Yingjie believes that there is no need to limit the playing time at all.

I have something to do at work today, I'm sorry.
