Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 197 Soy sauce preseason

Compared with last season, he still had to perform well in the preseason, this season's preseason is completely a soy sauce time for Ye Feng.McMillan obviously wants his players to familiarize themselves with the content of the training sessions in the pre-season game, to make more tactical moves, and not to worry about winning or losing.He almost only gave Ye Feng ten, twenty or 10 minutes of playing time in each game, and the other main players were the same. On the contrary, those substitute players or rookies played two to three 10 minutes per game. Ye Feng also knew that this was to let them integrate into the game as soon as possible. The best way for the team, didn't I come here in the same way last season?
However, unlike other people who just sit on the sidelines and watch the game quietly, Ye Feng likes to sit next to the coach, and will ask various questions.This does not mean that he wants to be a coach after retiring. Besides, there are at least ten years before retirement. In fact, this is just a habit he developed during the offseason, and he has to ask about everything.Besides, it is definitely not a bad thing to learn more about the team's tactical system in the new season. Although he is not a point guard, he faintly became a figure like James and Turkoglu in the final decisive battle of the playoffs last season. Point forward.

Seeing that Ye Feng was interested in tactical analysis, McMillan did not intend to dampen his enthusiasm. Anyway, this is the best thing for the team. He wished that all the players on the team would come to him to discuss tactical issues.Moreover, Ye Feng's timing was also very accurate. The preseason match happened to be a game where he didn't need to care about the result of the game but could use team tactics. If it was the summer league, it would be too much fun. He wouldn't even show up, let alone discuss it. tactical.

Soon McMillan was amazed by Ye Feng's keen tactical vision. He thought he had estimated Ye Feng's level as high as possible before, but this time Ye Feng gave him another surprise.Although the temporary response is still immature, the analysis of the situation on the field is already in order, and you can still have your own deep insights, which is not easy.Ordinary players are qualified if they can manage their own affairs well, but they basically don't have their own views on other positions, and they don't want to seriously think about how to deal with problems.Ye Feng is different, he can not only find the shortcomings of the outside line, but also see the way of the inside line, this is not qualified but excellent.

In fact, this is also related to McMillan's lack of understanding of Ye Feng.Although Ye Feng occasionally uses moves with obvious position-specific marks such as post-up singles in official matches, most of the time he looks like an orthodox swingman, and the techniques he uses are all Exclusive to shooting guards and small forwards.However, what McMillan didn't know was that Ye Feng had studied every position's style of play, and he didn't mind opening up his arsenal to show off if necessary.Having research on each position means having an understanding of the situations that each position may encounter on the field, so it is not surprising that Ye Feng can make his own voice.

In the preseason, the Trail Blazers achieved a record of 3 wins and 2 losses. McMillan didn't feel much about this, but the performance of several players made him shine.Needless to say, Batum's experience in the playoffs last season allowed him to grow rapidly, and his technical characteristics and style of play are very close to Ye Feng's. It can be said that he is the best substitute in the third position. With him In that case, even if Ye Feng takes a rest or does not take part in the game directly, it can ensure that the team's main tactical system is not neglected.

In addition, Cunningham and Mills were just selected this year.Although Cunningham looks thin, he is very active in perimeter defense, and his speed is not inferior. If he continues to develop, he may become a big lock for the team's flank.As for Mills' performance, McMillan is more satisfied. It may be because he has been selected for the Australian national team and participated in the BJ Olympics. The 21-year-old Mills has shown a maturity beyond his age and an overall perspective. McMillan secretly made up his mind Use this guy as a primary backup at the [-], maybe even a starter in some games.

Ye Feng was also very happy, as expected he still needed to communicate more with the head coach.Of course, the so-called communication is not to flatter, but to conduct some tactical discussions.The players of each team are very familiar with the tactical system, but how to make appropriate changes when encountering difficulties will test the skills of the players, especially the players who are responsible for controlling the ball.Although Ye Feng is not the team's point guard, he is the second player in the team after Roy in terms of tactical status, and he also has the right to make temporary decisions on the field, so it is important for him to be familiar with the team's tactical system. Big gain.

Also thinking seriously when watching the game are Blake and Roy. One of them is the team's starting point guard and the other is the team's captain. It is also necessary to summarize the gains and losses.However, the two inside players, Adelaide and Oden, seem much more relaxed. They don't have the ability to support high positions. It's almost a hundred and eight thousand miles away.So they still point and point at the players on the court, arguing quietly about who has good skills and who is a buttery player. Anyway, it's just nonsense.

But what McMillan didn't know was that there was another person on the field who was playing with his brain, organizing the offense while verifying some of his ideas in his heart, and that was Mills, whom he was optimistic about.In fact, Mills was also the first rookie to take the initiative to ask him for the playbook, and he also carried it with him. Whether it is for a show or really squeezing time to browse, this attitude is still very important.But how to say that there is still a substantial difference between the bench lineup and the starting lineup, so Mills played a bit aggrieved, and he was more eager to partner with the starting lineup.The aggrieved heart reflects that he is not decisive enough on the court, and he is not willing to take risks. However, these performances have become mature and stable in the eyes of McMillan. I don't know if Mills will laugh or cry.

All in all, the preseason was a good start for the new season. McMillan had found a useful soldier, and Ye Feng and the others had a better understanding of tactics.Judging from the actions during the offseason, the Blazers still focused on stability and did not intend to easily destroy the chemical reaction of last season. Do it.
