Reboot McGrady

Chapter 306 Chapter 307 Need 42 Games

The Warriors won all the two preseason games held in China.

Back in the United States, the remaining few games were all lost, which completely exposed the lack of cooperation and player ability.

Seeing the quality of the team's running-in, George Karl frowned, "Damn it, it's too ugly to play, and there is no advantage at all."

In this Warriors team, only McGrady has an absolute strength, and it is also an object that the team can rely on.Other positions are not considered to have a matchup advantage.

The overall height of the inner line is not enough, the hardness is not enough, and the level is medium.There are two players in the backcourt. Pietrus was still an unknown substitute for the team last season. Although Baron Davis played in the Hornets, his style of play is unreasonable and independent, and he needs to re-adapt to the team.

"Tracey, can you bear failure?" George Karl was worried about McGrady's mentality. Falling from the position of the championship team is not an acceptable situation for ordinary people. "Maybe, we can only fight for the playoffs."

"This is not a problem. As long as the team is running in, I believe this team will explode with stronger combat effectiveness."

George Karl breathed a sigh of relief, "If we run in smoothly, this season, we will reach the playoffs, and next season, we can strive to reach the second round, and then we can look forward to the Western Conference championship."

For the prospects of the team, Karl obviously lacks confidence.Even if they can make it to the playoffs, they will only be in the bottom half, and the first round is normal.The biggest task of this season is to train new players and make full preparations for the next season.

"Don't think too much. Keeping the team healthy is the most important thing. I will lead the team well." McGrady patted Carl on the shoulder, but comforted the head coach, "In the West, if you want to make the playoffs, you must at least win 42 games, maybe 44 to be safe."

Because although there are a few strong teams in the Eastern Conference, they are generally weak. The Western Conference teams win more and lose less than most of the Eastern Conference teams. As a result, the competition among the Western Conference teams becomes more intense. Only with a winning percentage of at least half can they enter the season. playoffs.

George Karl calculated and pursed his lips, "Perhaps, it's more than just winning. If we can't win the top two in the Pacific Division, it will be difficult to get a better ranking."

The ranking depends not only on the team's record, but also on the regional ranking.Two teams in the same half area cannot become teams that are close to the ranking. For example, one is in the third place and the other is in the fourth place.

"I just said you were pessimistic, but now you're overly optimistic." McGrady laughed. "In the Pacific Division, the Suns, the Lakers, and the Kings, which one is easy to deal with? Which one can't make the playoffs? We can keep the top eight, already God bless me!"

"Sun?" George Karl still didn't believe it. Their lineup and outside defense were not strong. "D'Antoni's coaching level has not been confirmed yet."

"Didn't they say that this season is going to be a whirlwind, they will play small ball, fast-paced offense and defense. In the past few seasons, ordinary teams can't resist." McGrady is a person who has experienced it, and of course he knows that the top players of the Suns in the next few seasons strength.

"Personal honor, I don't value it anymore. The team's record is the most important." McGrady reiterated.This is not what he thought in his heart. The record is the guarantee of the MVP. This is too difficult. He must at least continue to win the scoring championship.

In the past few seasons, he was the league's triple-double king, but unfortunately the triple-double was not included in the statistics.Currently, McGrady has more than 90 triple-doubles in his career, ranking first in the league.

"I will let the team fully cooperate with you." George Karl was very excited. He thought McGrady was just a super player, but he didn't expect to have an extremely rational brain, so it would be easy.

Recently, the Warriors have lost consecutive games, and the media has repeatedly looked down upon them, treating them as a team with a lot of fat.The strength ranking has fallen to around 18th in the league, and in the West, it is only in the top ten.

Even a playoff berth is hard to come by.

"Looking at the overall strength of the Warriors, it is difficult for Tracy to lead the team to the playoffs."

"The Warriors will become Tracy's Waterloo. This team has failed for many years, and it is impossible to make the playoffs within a year. What's more, the team's main lineup has almost completely changed."

"Tracey is one of the MVP contenders in the regular season as long as he leads the team to the playoffs. Because he pulled a losing team out of the mud."

It was night, and McGrady took a sip of La Mondot wine, which is a new product he invested in the winery. He looked at the bearded Baron Davis, "In the new season, you want to be my biggest assistant. Do you have the ambition? ?”

The La Mondo wine was full-bodied and condensed, and Baron Davis downed it in a whole glass, and then lit the Dominican cigar that Maddy sent over, which was also the product of Maddy's Dominican farm.

It has a strong taste and a unique aroma. Although it is not as good as the top cigars, it is also very suitable for consumers with unique tastes. It is mainly a niche brand. "If it was changed to 3 years ago, I definitely disagree, because I also want to be the boss. That was with the Hornets. But right now, I just want to help you, Mack."

He is not a fool. Brad Miller completely obeys McGrady. Al Harrington trained with McGrady last season.

Pietrus is the player selected by McGrady to start the top position, and he will definitely listen to McGrady. Moreover, this guy can defend well and can fight against the opponent's sharp knife in the backcourt.

In the starting lineup, there are all McGrady's boys, and there is no room for his beard to talk.In addition, the team's key rookies, Al Jefferson, Tony Allen, and Worrett Ariza, are all players selected by McGrady for the team.

Could it be that if he didn't play a game, he would rebel?McGrady is having a private conversation with Baron Davis at the moment, and they are giving red wine and luxury goods at the same time, which has already given Davis enough face.

Davis signed a five-year contract, and McGrady only has three years. McGrady must be thinking about getting results within three years.McGrady has been in the Warriors for the past few years, and he has done his best to assist him.

At this time, Davis thought of Billups of the Hawks.Now that Billups has made his mark, he is a bit of a core player of the Eagles. He is the main player on the outside and Yao is the main player on the inside. The two can still have strong combat effectiveness.

"I will lead you to victory, at least to the playoffs this year, and next year, we will create a big scene again."

McGrady is confident, but not arrogant.With the current lineup of the Warriors, they cannot escape from the West and ascend to heaven. Not to mention the running-in problem, too many rookies and lack of experience are fatal injuries.

The Spurs, Mavericks, even the Kings and Timberwolves can beat them in the series, and the Lakers led by Kobe are not weak at all, and they are also a playoff team.He is most eager to beat McGrady and prove himself.

After the allegiance of Baron Davis, Tracy McGrady finally completely took the Warriors into his hands.He needs the team to be in the same heart, and the heart can be smooth, and the heart can be successful.

It is McGrady's goal this season to lead this team that has never won to the playoffs.
