Chapter 16 Challenge the Alliance (recommendation ticket requested)
"Then someone asked why the Bobcats played the ball reasonably, because the Bobcats coach Liu Rui dared to employ people."

"This Hart, just now I looked at the technical statistics of the halftime. At the end of the halftime, he made 3 of 1 shots and only scored two points. There are not many bright spots on the defensive end."

"In this case, why did coach Liu Rui put him in the starting position in the second half?"

"Then there is a good answer now, which is to consume Carter's physical energy. When Hart is on the court, we can see that he keeps running around on the court."

"Originally, Carter didn't have much rest throughout the first half. When he came back in the second half, the defensive end followed Hart and kept running, which caused his physical fitness to decline very quickly, which seriously affected his offensive touch."

"This is why Carter only hit 4 goal in 1 shots after he came up in the second half."

"Then this defensive concept is very reasonable, so the next game will be interesting."

"Okay, then I've heard Director Zhang's analysis, now let's cut back to the game."

"Hey, wait a minute, this shot shows Coach Liu Rui a close-up, let's take a look, why is there a lot of wetness on his pants?!"

"Because there is no replay, now we don't know what happened just now. Could it be that the coach was too nervous for the first time, couldn't find the toilet, and peed his pants?!"

…………

Back from the timeout, the Bobcats began to replace players in rotation.

Dramatically, the Raptors star Carter seemed to have had a heated argument with head coach Mitchell during the timeout, and returned to the locker room alone before the game was over.

And Mitchell's face turned blue with anger, and he vented more anger on the players, which made everyone on the field very depressed. They wished that the game would end now. It was really a torment on the field.

In such a situation where the spirits are completely unequal, the main players of the Bobcats clocked out of get off work in less than three quarters, and the time officially entered garbage time.

At the end of the game, the Bobcats ended with:
97:81
The first preseason game of the new season beat the Raptors by 16 points.

全场比赛,华莱士上场22分钟,8投6中,罚球2中1,拿下13分7篮板7助攻的全面数据。

In addition, the defensive end also contributed 3 steals and 1 block.

卡波诺上场19分钟,超高效率的12投9中,三分球9中6,砍下24分0篮板1助攻。

Contributed an astonishing 19 three-pointers in 6 minutes, helping the Bobcats shoot through the Raptors in one fell swoop.

And Liu Ruili resisted all opinions and insisted that he should play the starting center Brezek played at a higher level. With a smart golf quotient, he was able to get twice the result with half the effort when he was doing the pick-and-roll for Kapono.

全场比赛在出场18分钟的时间里,就为球队贡献8分7篮板4助攻2盖帽的数据。

Sure enough, people who play with their brains are different, and they have a relaxed and visual sense.

Okafor came off the bench. In the limited time, the educated Raptors rookie Arauyo had no temper. He made 12 of 7 free throws and 6 of 3 free throws. He comfortably scored a double-double of 17 points and 10 rebounds, including 4 offensive rebounds.

Even the famous CBA star Jamal Thompson faced the Raptors drinking fountain players in the fourth quarter, scoring 11 points and 8 rebounds in 6 minutes, and of course 4 fouls.

Except for Rose and Bosh who scored 20+ points on the Raptors side, everyone else performed mediocre. Carter even returned to the locker room and never came back.

In the first game since the establishment of the Bobcats team, this animal war ended in such an impressive way.

A preseason game is far from being so popular, and in the post-game press conference, the Bobcats were packed.

There were as many as five or six major media outlets in Toronto alone.

Out of consideration, Liu Rui took Wallace, Okafor, and Kapono to the post-match press conference.

Reporter: "Mr. Liu Rui, I heard that you are only 31 years old. As far as I know, there is no such young person in the league as the head coach of the team. Although you led the team to play very well in this game, after all, this is just a preseason game. What do you think about this, Mr. Liu Rui?"

Liu Rui: "Hehe, first of all, I don't think age can be the criterion for judging a person's success. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for the team to hire a head coach with a high salary. It would be better to dig out a few mummies and put them on the sidelines. It will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Reporter: "Mr. Liu Rui, during the game, the camera showed you off the court many times, and you spent most of the time eating snacks, fruits, and drinking milk tea. This is unprecedented in the history of the NBA. Besides, after the whole game, except for the official timeout, you never called a timeout on the sidelines. Is this an act of disrespect for your opponent?"

Liu Rui: "First of all, I don't think there is anything wrong with sitting on the sidelines and eating, and I also respect every one of my opponents. They are all my predecessors."

"But everyone has their own habits. Indeed, I didn't call a timeout in the whole game, because I believe in myself and my players, and it is undeniable that the future belongs to young people."

"In addition, I think respect and foodie should not be linked. We are competitors on the court, and we are all coaches off the court, so there is no disrespect."

"Besides, if I miss the meal time because of preparing for the game, I can't just sit on the sidelines and starve to death." Liu Rui spread his hands innocently.

Reporter (you talk a lot about him): Mr. Liu Rui, can I understand what you said just now as that the future belongs to you, and you are ready to challenge the veteran coaches in the league.

Liu Rui: "..., if you understand it that way, I won't refute it. To put it mildly, the future does belong to us."

"Wow~"

As soon as this sentence was said, it was like a frying pan underneath, and it suddenly became noisy.

Kapono, who was sitting next to Liu Rui, also had some surprise on his face. He had also been in contact with the coach for a while. He has always been a very easy-going person. He didn't understand why he suddenly became so arrogant today.

The regular season hasn't started yet, and even if he can't become friends with other coaches, Kapono really can't understand Liu Rui around him more and more now that he's spreading hatred like this.

On the surface, Liu Rui was calm and calm, but at this moment, he was a little flustered in his heart.

After all, it is the first time that people have been surrounded by so much media in two lifetimes.

As for Liu Rui's outrageous words, it was indeed intentional. He had instilled confidence in the team, but they still lacked some pressure.

Cole has proved in his previous life that a bowl of rice nourishes a benefactor, a bucket of rice nourishes an enemy, and pure free basketball can make players cohesive to the greatest extent.

But it will also make players lazy. A comfortable environment can make a person happy, but it can also destroy a person at the same time.

Therefore, Liu Rui urgently needs pressure to mobilize the blood of young players.

Moreover, the Bobcats have just been established, far from getting too much attention.

And only when the attention of his team becomes higher, he will have more say in trading players, and he should not keep a low profile in public or private. (I also want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn’t allow it!!)
So if this is the case, why not let the storm come more violently...
