Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 8
[Curry's slam dunk performance task is completed, Curry's confidence has improved, and Curry's ability to judge shooting timing has improved. 】

[Skill point +1. 】

In the preseason game between the Timberwolves and the Bulls, Curry received a second pass from DeRozan to complete the alley-oop.

Prior to this, Curry had passed two alley-oops to DeRozan.

Now the head coach of the Bulls is not Thibodeau, and their defense is just so-so.

The tacit understanding between Curry and DeRozan has become more and more sufficient. DeRozan now prefers to rely on his physical fitness to get in, and his style can complement Curry.

The key point is that DeRozan did not show any aversion to three-pointers. Different teams started the game, and the player's style would undergo subtle changes. Under the influence of Zhang Sixin, DeRozan practiced three-pointers conscientiously and dared to shoot in the game.

The Bulls are a fringe team in the playoffs. With Ben Gordon leaving in the summer, the Bulls have fully established Rose's absolute core position.

Rose, who is only in the second grade, also showed enough strength.

However, Rose is now experiencing some minor injuries.

Players with strong physical fitness will instinctively pursue a more explosive style of play, but if they can't control the speed, they will be easily injured.

In this game, Rose was sidelined due to injury.

Rose is not here, the Bulls mainly rely on Luol Deng, Salmons and Noah, and there are more singles.

Zhang Sixin arranged for Matthews to start this time, but this buddy's performance was only average, and it felt a bit like playing the game as a one-on-one.

After replacing Brewer, the team as a whole is much better.

In a way, Brewer is really a starter for the team, but the shooting depends on the sky.

The current style of play of the Bulls is very dependent on the personal ability of the stars. In fact, they have not brought out the advantages of the team, because most of their players are good at defense, but the head coach does not pay much attention to defense.

It's not without reason that the Bulls took off after Thibodeau's arrival. The defense really fits the current Bulls.

Even when they weren't paying attention, the Timberwolves' interior offense was curbed, and Jefferson and Love's starting starts couldn't take advantage of Noah and Taj Gibson.

Zhang Sixin shook his head secretly. Jefferson usually looks very strong when he bullies the inside line, but he will shrink a lot when he encounters a tougher performance.

"Ron, can you mention Al's defense?" he asked.

"I will try my best to guide him. Al has moved better these days." Ron Adams said, "But some habits are difficult to completely change."

Zhang Sixin understood that Jefferson is a player who has formed his own style after all, and he is not as easy to guide as a rookie.

As for the problem of movement, it was the help of the system after Zhang Sixin completed the task with radio gymnastics.

It's a pity that the task was not triggered later, and Jefferson's movement was still slow.

"For Kevin, we still need to find a way to improve his efficiency." Zhang Sixin signaled Tyronn Ludo to pay attention to Love.

Love is more versatile in the interior, but apart from a strong sense of rebounding, being omnipotent in other aspects means that he is not particularly good at one item.

Such a player is very strong when used well, but embarrassing if he is not used well.

When to let him go outside and when to let him go inside, Zhang Sixin needs to carefully count Love's efficiency against different opponents and in different areas.

The two teams in front played inextricably, and the rhythm couldn't get up at all.

The speed of the Bulls' two insiders is not slow, and the young Curry still can't fully bring the rhythm.

But when Curry brought the bench lineup, the Bulls' defense suddenly had problems.

It's not easy to fight inside, so it's fine if you don't play.

The rebounding game is really not a one-on-one game. How to take advantage of the lineup is a science.

The Timberwolves' current bench lineup is much faster, which is the problem of chemical reaction and instability.

Even if you don't make a fast break, if you hit a high pick-and-roll, chances will easily appear on the flanks.

Brewer felt okay today, and Belinelli was more stable, Mills also scored two in this game, and the Timberwolves immediately took the lead.

"Let everyone participate in the offense, and the game will become easier." Zhang Sixin said.

"Open shooting is actually something that every professional player must do well. As long as we practice shooting well, we will not worry about lack of manpower. Every player of ours can score and help the team."

"Zhang, you are really good." Tyronn Lu admired him, feeling that he had learned it again.

Zhang Sixin gave Dell Curry a thumbs up, and Dell Curry was quite proud.

He was a little depressed before he came here, but in a short time, Dell Curry felt a sense of belonging to the job.

Zhang Sixin's offensive tactics really value the player's shooting ability. He really uses Stephen so much. Dell Curry feels that he has met a bosom friend.

Now Dell Curry can increase the team's three-point shooting rate by 2%. I don't know if it is because of psychological factors. Zhang Sixin feels surprisingly easy to use.

And the second mission of this buddy is also brushed out, but this one is more difficult to complete, because the mission requires every player to hit 10 three-pointers in the game, which is more difficult for inside players and marginal players.

Zhang Sixin plans to do some preseason games, but the regular season will not be so easy.

But you can't mess around. After all, rookie coaches should also pay attention to their results in the preseason.

After the Timberwolves shot from the outside, the game became much easier, so Zhang Sixin also signaled Curry and DeRozan to play tricks.

The two backcourt partners who became more and more tacit to each other had a lot of fun, and Zhang Sixin was even happier when he saw the task was completed.

He now plans to point out all the offensive and defensive tactics that can be used, and then upgrade the team's most suitable tactics in a targeted manner.

Zhang Sixin still hopes to have a more comprehensive understanding of the team. After all, even if the Timberwolves do not have any cheats, they will gradually get better. There is no need for him to put all his eggs in one basket.

In the second half, the Bulls gave up resistance and began to inspect the players, focusing on the inside.

The Timberwolves continued to play outside shots. The two sides lived in peace and finished the game happily.

In the end, the Timberwolves took advantage of the opponent by 10 points, from being unable to open to easily suppressing the opponent, which fully reflected Zhang Sixin's adjustment ability.

The Huaguo media can now blow it up. After all, even the Minnesota media doesn't support him very much now, so it's hard to completely flatter him.

Only the media in his hometown can't wait to blow him out.

Students whose psychological quality is not up to standard may feel a lot of pressure or drift, but as a reborn person with a very mature heart, Zhang Sixin can deal with it very calmly.

He cooperated with the reporter's interview very well, and promoted his own social media by the way.

The salary of the head coach is not as high as that of most players, Zhang Sixin feels that he needs to earn some extra money.

Ahem... It is necessary to interact more with the fans.
