God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 497

During this period, the players trained hard every day, and the coaching staff was not idle. Except for Chang Wei, who devoted himself to Milicic, the other assistant coaches were cooperating with Jackson to write the tactical manual.Although it is not possible to produce a book as thick as other famous coaches due to time constraints, it is enough to guide the team's joint training for the time being.

But when Chang Wei saw the contents of this tactical manual, he felt bad.What do these mean?In your eyes, co-authoring Milicic is a protective wall?And after the cover, it is still the kind that attracts the defense but basically can't catch the ball!
When Chang Wei raised this question at the coaching staff meeting, although no one said anything, he could see disdain and contempt from the eyes of several assistant coaches. Obviously they didn't think it was a problem. Believe in Milicic's strength.After all, compared with James and others in the same session, this high-ranking show has already been considered a big parallel importer.

It is not impossible to reverse the case against Milicic, but Chang Wei also knew that his words were unfounded. He glanced at the other members of the coaching staff and said lightly: "I know the strength of Darko, if you don't believe it , then see you on the training ground!"

On the afternoon of the meeting, Jackson was ready to find out.It's not that he doesn't believe in Chang Wei, but it's really unbelievable, but what Chang Wei said is also reasonable, there is no basis for this matter, just a real fight.

If it was a few years ago, Milicic would still feel nervous about such a test, but this time he couldn't wait.Chang Wei's special training really made him reborn, and Daben and Brand's partner training allowed him to see the inside confrontation at the NBA starting level, which made him full of confidence in himself again.If you want a test, come here, I will prove myself!

Jackson did not rashly let the players engage in a 5V5 confrontation. After all, the team has not yet practiced together, and a 1V1 or 2V2 confrontation inside is enough to see Milicic's level.Chang Wei has no objection to Jackson's decision at all. Whether it is Raheem, Max Hill, or David Lee, the pressure they can put on Milicic is simply incomparable to that of Big Ben.

In order to save some face for Chang Wei, Jackson first asked David Lee, who he thought was the weakest, to compete with Milicic.This confrontation was not hidden from the other Bobcats players. Everyone came to the sidelines, found a place to sit down and prepared to eat melons, but whether Milicic or David Lee were teammates, even if they had a bias in their hearts They were also silent.

Chang Wei shook his head. In his opinion, there was no suspense in this matchup. As a short power forward, how could Li be the opponent of Milicic?Moreover, the opponent is also technical, and his height disadvantage is further magnified in such a 1V1.

As Chang Wei expected, Milicic faced Li Na with ease, and scored easily on the opponent's head in a row, which made Jackson very embarrassed.He wanted to try Milicic's level, but he didn't intend to let other people come up to abuse him. In the final analysis, he was still not experienced enough. Everyone's experience and strength were almost the same, and Milicic could be crushed by his height.

Jackson quickly called a stop and let Milicic take a break to prepare for his next opponent, Mark Hill.Li, who was substituted, felt a little frustrated, but he also understood that he basically could not take advantage of the tall insiders, and it was not surprising to lose to Milicic, but he still decided to play on his own in the next time. Continue to work on the offensive end.

Maxhill is also a short insider, even shorter than Lee, his height is only 2.01 meters.But unlike Li, he pursues physical confrontation very much. He is a short and stocky inside line with a very tough style.In Jackson's view, as a European insider, Milicic will definitely encounter trouble when facing such an opponent, and it is not impossible to be squeezed out of the three-second zone.

Originally, Milicic wanted to continue to use his height to shoot in the middle and long distances to impress the opponent, but he was stopped by Chang Wei after only one round.That's right, Chang Wei doesn't intend to make Milicic a player who can only shoot from the outside like Lewis, otherwise why force him to pick up his footsteps under the basket?Without waiting for Jackson to speak, Chang Wei strictly ordered Milicic not to use his shooting skills, and must go to the low post to confront Maxiel head-on.

Jackson had an unbelievable look on his face, and whispered, "Isn't that using one's own weaknesses to deal with other people's strengths?"

Chang Wei smiled mysteriously, and also replied in a low voice: "This is not Darko's shortcoming..."

Maxiel thought that in this way, he would be able to take advantage of the basket by relying on physical confrontation, but he didn't expect that when Milicic held the ball and played back singles, he couldn't help taking a step back with such strength, which surprised him Pale, you must know that strength is your forte!Milicic didn't care what he was thinking, after consecutive sittings, he turned around lightly and sent the ball into the basket.

Seeing Milicic's jerky footsteps around the basket, Jackson's mouth was wide enough to plug a light bulb in. He really didn't expect Milicic to have such a skill. Did everyone miss it before?Is this guy really a delayed genius?He couldn't believe his eyes, but it was an indisputable fact that Maxhill was continuously stunned by the footsteps under the basket.

After Maxhill was also dismissed, Raheem, who was regarded as the starting power forward, had to play.Fortunately, Raheem was also a prospect of the golden generation in 1996. Not only was he strong, but he also surpassed Milicic in terms of experience. The two were able to fight inseparably, and Raheem still had the upper hand.But this also made Jackson very satisfied. Milicic's improvement didn't happen overnight. It doesn't matter if he can reach his current level and practice again in the regular season.

Looking at Milicic who was entangled with Rahim in the basket, Jackson's eyes were shining, he patted Chang Wei's shoulder very hard, and laughed loudly: "Chang, you really have it, others don't want it." The player changed abruptly in your hands, I really believe that you are proficient in magic from the East! Now I have more confidence in this team."

Chang Wei was a little speechless because of the complacent look of the good friends. He spread his hands and said, "Don't set yourself too high a goal first. These rookies do have talent and strength, but they are enough to form a team." It will take time for a competitive team. It would be good to reach the playoffs this season. The most important thing is to lay a good foundation and let them grow slowly in the game, so that our team will not always be weak. Damon, you have to believe that we can win the championship!"
