Chapter 306 307. Famous People from Poland

April 10

After a day's rest, the Bobcats will continue to usher in the second game of the season at home.

Since the last opener, the Bobcats beat the Pistons at home.

This is also the confidence of Bobcats fans this season.

However, the victory in the opening match did not make Liu Rui feel so excited, but rather depressed.

After the game, Liu Rui conducted in-depth video research with the coaching staff, and also found many mistakes made by the players on the field, but most of them were the players who did not cooperate tacitly on the field.

The rookie players were inexperienced on the defensive end, so there were a lot of low-level mistakes in Liu Rui's view.

In this game, the Bobcats will continue to sit at home to meet the challenge of the New Jersey Nets.

The Nets didn't make much reinforcement this offseason.

After all, Vince Carter was traded last season, which is already the biggest reinforcement the Nets can make.

However, the performance of the Nets last season seemed unsatisfactory, and in the end they only caught the last train of the playoffs, ranking eighth in the Eastern Conference.

But it was eliminated by the Heat in the first round.

The composition of the Big Three really frightened the league, but the three obviously need more running-in, and the biggest problem for the Nets is that apart from the Big Three, the gap between other players is too obvious.

The current situation of the entire team is that strong players are particularly strong, and poor players are particularly poor.

Until this offseason, the Nets still haven't made any effective reinforcements.

It is also because the salary of the Big Three has locked the salary cap of the Nets, and there is not much room for reinforcement in the market.

Most of the people who can be signed are those who are incapable. As for the basic salary veterans who still have some ability, most of them choose to join the most promising teams such as the Spurs and Heat.

Although the Blue Nets lineup also poses a great threat in the playoffs, at least compared with the Spurs and Heat, the chances of winning the championship are still much smaller.

However, for the Nets this season, the best news is that the team's rookie center Krstic gradually began to rise.

Has served as an important part of the team's inside line, and his performance in the preseason is very eye-catching. If nothing else, the Nets will use Krstic as the team's starting center in the new season.

After all, in the previous deal involving Vince Carter, the Nets also traded most of their team's insiders to the Raptors.

As a result, the insider family has been emptied, and now there is an urgent need for a center who can act alone to escort the blue net.

The current head coach of the Nets is still Frank, and Frank is a head coach with his own ideas.

For the Nets, when Kidd is on the court, Kidd will conduct his own analysis of the form on the court.

So sometimes it will violate the tactics assigned by the head coach to the team.

This also caused a lot of conflicts between Frank and Kidd. If the Nets can't produce results this season, then Frank is likely to face dismissal.

And how bad is the rotation of the Nets? In the last season, apart from the Big Three, not only did no fourth player score in double figures, but the remaining one with the highest score only averaged about six points per game.

This also makes the Nets' strength on the court greatly reduced when the Big Three are off the court.

Compared with the Nets, the Bobcats are more like blooming. Whether they are on the field as a starter or as a substitute, they can control the situation on the court very well.

Although the problems faced by the Bobcats are also very serious, but in terms of lineup configuration, the Bobcats do not have too many problems.

In this game, the home court of the Bobcats is still packed. In the opening game of the last game, the Bobcats successfully defeated the Pistons who eliminated themselves in the semifinals of last season.

This kind of performance also makes fans more and more look forward to what kind of shock the Bobcats can bring to fans this season.

So in the second game, it ushered in another big enemy in the East, the Nets.

Regardless of the strength of the Nets, it is absolutely an indisputable fact that the team has bright stars.

The Big Three are currently very popular in the league, especially Vince Carter. After entering the league, Carter was known as one of Jordan's successors.

With his gorgeous dunks, he has won countless fans in this league.

After the opening, the two teams announced their starting lineups:

Bobcats:
Mo Williams, Joe Johnson, Granger, Wallace, Okafor.

Nets:
Kidd, Carter, Jefferson, Collins, Krstic.

Sure enough, as Liu Rui expected, the Nets used Serbian center Kostic as the starting center.

A man who went bald at a young age.

It's a dunk when I go in "bald"...

Kostic has inherited the tradition of the Serbian center, that is, he has a softer touch.

Not only has a mid-range shot, but also has a very high hit rate at the end of the basket.

But the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the defensive end is simply bullied, and the ability to block shots is almost non-existent, unless you send it to him with a strong head.

Many people don't know him well, and Liu Rui can have an impression of him because he once played for the Thunder for a short time in later generations, which gave Liu Rui some impression of him.

After the opening, the ball was taken by the Nets first.

The current main offensive method of the entire Nets is the offense from Carter and Jefferson.

Kidd is responsible for defense and the transition of offense and defense on the entire field, which can be regarded as the engine of the team's offense.

The same thing about Carter and Jefferson is that both of them used to be well-known dunkers in the league, but with injuries, they also reduced the number of breakthroughs into the restricted area, and gradually began to shoot longer distances from the outside.

Facing the Nets, Liu Rui's strategy before the game was very obvious, in the case of resolutely defending and not double-teaming.

Mo Williams on the field can double-team Carter and Jefferson according to the situation, and appropriately let Kidd shoot from outside the three-point line.

Although Kidd has some shooting ability from beyond the three-point line, in addition to his low shooting percentage, it is impossible for him to shoot endlessly throughout the game.

Except it's not his usual style, and he doesn't have that hit rate, let alone that confidence.

After all, at this time, Jibu voted for the name, but he still couldn't take it off his head.

Bobcats home commentator Cage: "Okay, we can see from the beginning here that the Bobcats' starting lineup for this game has been adjusted again."

"Liu Rui once again started Okafor, who came off the bench in the last game, and put rookie player David Lee back on the bench."

"Because obviously, when Okafor is the starter, the Bobcats' defense on the court will be more in place. Obviously, Liu Rui also discovered this in the game against the Pistons."

Commentator David: "Indeed, when Okafor is on the court, the Bobcats will do better on the defensive end, because the entire Bobcats team does not have a particularly good player in the penalty area."

"We can see that the Nets are currently giving Carter the first chance to attack. However, the rookie Granger is defending Carter in this game?!"

"Is Liu Rui planning to let Joe Johnson retain more physical strength on the defensive end? Or does he think Granger's defense is better than Joe Johnson?!"

Commentator Cage: "I think it should be to release Joe Johnson on the defensive end so that he can devote more energy to the offense."

"Carter first made a mid-range jumper. Unfortunately, the ball was not hit. The rebound was protected by Okafor. This pass, good!!, is another classic long pass from the Bobcats quarterback."

"Let's take a quick look, Wallace has already run to the frontcourt, and Kidd is currently following him on the court, and Kidd was selected to the best defensive team last season."

"But Gerrard will have a height advantage against him, so let's see how Wallace plays this ball."

"Let's see the ball. Gerrard got up in three steps. Is this going to be dunked, huh? There was no dunk. Gerrard distributed the ball to Joe Johnson who followed up from outside the three-point line."

"Joe Johnson made a three-pointer!! See if the ball is there."

sigh~
"Beautiful! Joe Johnson followed up the ball very well, and Gerrard was also very clear-headed. When he was not sure, he also promptly distributed the ball to Joe Johnson who was open on the outside."

"From this shot, we can see that after a season, Gerrard's passing awareness has become better and better. Before changing, I'm afraid he would just fly this kind of ball and it would be a dunk."

With Joe Johnson following up and hitting this three-pointer, he also took the lead in scoring the first goal of the game for the Bobcats.

When Wallace retreated, he also gave Joe Johnson a high-five.

The offensive cooperation this time is also very tacit. Indeed, as the commentator said, if it was replaced by the previous Gerald Wallace, I am afraid that facing this kind of opportunity, he would forcefully get up and dunk.

Even if you can't make it, you will let yourself finish it.

But now Wallace has been under Liu Rui for longer and longer, and his vision of passing the ball has become wider and wider.

He immediately found Joe Johnson who was following him, and distributed the ball steadily. Facing the open opportunity, Joe Johnson also lived up to expectations and hit the ball perfectly.

Although this was just a very simple offensive cooperation, Liu Rui, who was sitting off the court, did see the epitome of this ball.

That is, the Bobcats have gradually transformed into a collective, and are no longer trapped in individual struggles.

Subsequently, under the targeted defense of the Bobcats in the first quarter, the Nets also played more uncomfortable on the offensive end.

The Bobcats will vacate Kidd on the outside a lot in defense, and double-team Carter and Jefferson.

Coincidentally, if you only talk about the movement speed and defense ability on the field, then the Bobcats' starting lineup is definitely the best in the league.

After all, the Bobcats do not have big inside players, so in many games, they can only ensure the success rate of the defensive end through non-stop help defense, rotation and double-teaming.

So as early as the season did not start, Liu Rui set his sights on Gortat, the "Polish legend" who was selected with the No.20 seventh pick in the second round of this year.

Regarding the trade to Gortat, Liu Rui simply didn't take this matter to heart.

After all, Gortat is the 27th pick in the second round, so it can be said that he is only a tiny bit away from losing the draft.

The saddest thing is that Gortat's early career in the NBA can no longer be described as unsatisfactory.

A rookie who was drafted in 2005 but made his NBA debut in 2008.

As for where Gortat was in these three years, unfortunately, after being selected by the Suns with the 27th overall pick in the second round, Gortat was traded to the Magic in the same year.

Before logging into the NBA, Gortat also played in the Bundesliga.

The reason why he was not recalled by the NBA team immediately was also because the team believed that he could not adapt to the rhythm of the NBA game.

For him, he has been in a state of giving up and not giving up, so he has been placed in the Bundesliga to hone his skills.

After going to the Magic, Gortat had no playing time at all.

He was sent directly to the Development League by the Magic, and was not recruited back to the NBA until the end of 2007.

In March 2008, he ushered in his debut.

This also created an NBA historical record at the time.

So the current Gortat is still dominating the Bundesliga.

It's just that because he is a rookie contract, it is still in the freezing stage and cannot be traded, so Liu Rui is not in a hurry.

And the 211-height Polish hammer can also, to some extent, make up for the Bobcats' lack of defense in the penalty area.

With the Bobcats' defense on the court, even though the Nets have three stars, they are still struggling on the offensive end.

Only in the first quarter, the Nets' starting center Krstic became a surprise player on the field.

When the Bobcats put most of their defensive focus on Carter and Jefferson, Krstic hit consecutive mid-range shots, which also cost the Bobcats.

At the end of the first quarter, the Bobcats played at home with:
24:25
Temporarily lagging behind the Blue Nets by one point.

After returning from the second quarter, the Nets still put Jefferson on the court. After all, the Nets' bench lineup is really bad. If there is no main lineup on the court, it can be said to be a wave of existence.

McGinnis is the strongest offensive firepower of the entire Nets on the bench, but in the last season, McGinnis averaged only 5.3 points per game.

Commentator David: "It's the second quarter again. The Nets' bench lineup is surprisingly poor in the league. Facing the Bobcats' bench in this quarter, I think the Nets may lose a lot of advantages."

Commentator Cage: "Yes, after the Bobcats strengthened, they can use more and more people on the bench. Even Martin, the main scoring point last season, was put on the bench."

"Coupled with Jefferson on the inside, the Bobcats' bench firepower can be said to be very strong. I feel that there is no suspense when they encounter the Nets, which has the worst bench firepower in the league."

"Hey, the second quarter has started. Let's take a look. Sure enough, Liu Rui chose the five-up and five-down rotation again."

"Even against the Pistons in the last scene, Liu Rui maintained his rotation. This guy really makes people feel a little arrogant, haha."

Commentator David: "Let's look at the Nets. Jefferson and Collins are still on the court, and Frank dare not replace all the main lineup."

"Looking at this offense of the Bobcats, Louis holds the ball. He has a great foot advantage when he is in Vaughan. This is the benefit of being young."

"But is this young guy too sticky to the ball on the field? Look here, Louis broke through and gave the ball to Kevin at a 45-degree angle, and made a three-pointer."

"Oh, it's a pity that Kevin didn't take advantage of this opportunity."

After the second quarter came up, the Bobcats did not directly suppress the Nets as most people expected.

On the contrary, the Bobcats have also fallen into a state of stagnation on the offensive end.

The players' shots were frequently shot. Even though Martin faced open shots several times, he still failed to make the ball.

This also led to a wave of climaxes quickly reversed by the Nets after the Nets' main lineup returned in the second quarter.

While smoothing out the disadvantages, it also successfully overtook the Bobcats.

This made Liu Rui very dissatisfied off the court, and called a timeout to the referee.

"I am very dissatisfied with your performance on the court. I will not talk about the few open opportunities on the outside and missed shots. After all, the touch is not so hot in every game."

"But in the Nets' bench lineup, we have absolute advantages both inside and outside. We can't make shots from the outside. Don't you see Jefferson's position on the inside and wants the ball?!"

"How many times did he follow you back and forth?! I told you that we are a team that focuses on outside offense, but that doesn't mean we only play outside."

"So do you really understand what the team's style of play is like?"

During the timeout, Liu Rui was also annoyed by Lu Wei and others.

Since Liu Rui said last time, the Bobcats are an outside-oriented offensive team.

These guys shifted most of their offensive shots to the outside, which is understandable, but faced with such a good opportunity, they can't make shots from the outside and have an advantage inside, so they still choose to shoot from the outside.

In Liu Rui's view, this is simply the behavior of an idiot.

After returning from the timeout, Liu Rui also made adjustments to the lineup on the field, and did not replace the main force of the Bobcats for the time being.

Instead, Louis Williams on the back line was replaced with Fan Crazy.

Although Crazy Fan is more convulsive on the court, compared with Lu Wei, Lu Wei can be called a top iron today.

Sure enough, this rookie season is really unusual for the man who grabbed the ball with Iverson.

With the return of Crazy Fan, the Bobcats' offense on the court has also begun to improve. Compared with Lu Wei, who is young and victorious, Crazy Fan has been in this league for many years after all.

Coupled with the Bobcats' reasonable play on the court, it also temporarily stabilized the situation on the court.

With the dead ball stage, Liu Rui also gradually replaced his main lineup.

At halftime, the Bobcats were at home with:
51:54
Three points behind the Nets.

After returning from the second half, the main lineup, which had a good feel, seemed to suddenly lose the focus of shooting, turning the Bobcats' home court into a round of iron playing.

Even in the face of open opportunities, Liu Rui still failed to make a hit. Liu Rui had no choice but to rotate off the court, choosing to let people with good hands play more.

What made the third quarter even worse for the Bobcats was that Carter had a personal recovery in the second half.

在整个第三节，卡特各人就7投4中，三分线外3中2，单节拿下了10分2篮板的数据。

This also led to the Bobcats ending the three quarters with:
73:79
Six points behind the Nets.

It seemed that they were only 1 point behind the Nets in the first quarter, but in the second two quarters, because of continuous strikes, they became the passive side at the end of the third quarter.

This also made Liu Rui frown and think off the court.

If the Bobcats lose this game, it cannot be said that the Nets played well. It is entirely because of the Bobcats' own unsatisfactory offensive end that caused the game to fall into this passive situation.

And this kind of offensive instability is also a major hurdle that a new team needs to face.

Many young players are like this. During off-court training, their shots are more accurate than one, and they can even hit ten or twenty consecutive shots. But in the game, even if they are faced with open opportunities, they may not be able to take the ball with great confidence.

Liu Rui knew very well that in the early part of the fourth quarter, the main lineup of the Nets was bound to rest. For the Bobcats on the court, this was definitely the best time to chase points.

So Liu Rui didn't hold back either, and directly placed the main lineup on the court in the first half of the fourth quarter. After all, they had already had a long rest in the first three quarters.

Nets head coach Frank was a little anxious when he saw how the Bobcats were employing the team, but the main lineup had just come off the court for a rest.

After all, even an iron man can't stand a game without much rest.

However, the bad luck seems to have not been shaken off by the Bobcats. Even if the main lineup returns, Joe Johnson seems to be led astray by the bad touch of his teammates.

On the offensive end, facing one-on-one singles, he also began to miss consecutive shots.

While giving the Nets a chance to breathe on the bench, the Nets' main lineup gradually returned to the court.

Therefore, the return of the Big Three also allowed the Nets to control the rhythm of the court.

After Carter came back in the fourth quarter, although his hand feeling declined slightly, he was still much better than the Bobcats.

With the final concerted efforts of the Big Three of the Nets, coupled with the joint efforts of the Bobcats.

At the end of the game, the Nets also played in the away game with:
107:98
9 points to beat the Bobcats.

Such a loss also made the home fans feel unacceptable.

After all, the Bobcats just beat the Pistons in the last game.

Overall, the Nets are obviously not as good as the Pistons.

But the Bobcats, who defeated the Pistons, lost to the Nets by nine points in the second game.

The entire Bobcats team played the rhythm that the team should have in the first quarter, but in the last three quarters, the Bobcats gradually began to become sluggish, and the feel fell straight downhill.

Especially in the second half, the Bobcats had many open shots on the offensive end, but still failed to hit them.

Faced with this kind of ball, it has nothing to do with the Nets' defense. It is entirely a problem with the Bobcats' own touch on the offensive end.

Although Liu Rui watched very anxiously off the court, he even wished he could go on the court and throw the ball.

But as the head coach of the team, when the players feel bad, there is not much to do.

We can only try to find the strongest lineup on the field through the rotation of players. After all, the tactics arranged by the coach have already come out, but the players just can't make shots. Obviously, there is no way.

In this game, Mo Williams continued his bad touch. When he played against the Pistons again, Mo Williams' touch was very bad, and this game still did not improve.

Even Liu Rui thought that Mo Williams had too much fun during the offseason and was developing towards the second money? ? !
莫威廉姆斯全场比赛出场了23分钟，各人9投2中，三分线外7中1，罚球2中2，拿到了7分3篮板1助攻的数据。

But the poor shooting percentage and sleepwalking performance on the court can be said to be the same as undercover.

Kevin Martin, another main offensive point on the bench, was not much better in this game.

全场12投3中，三分线外5中1，罚球3中3，拿下了10分1篮板3助攻的数据。

Facing the opportunity of an open three-pointer many times, he really failed to grasp it.

The team's main offensive point, Joe Johnson, also changed from hot to cold after the second half.

全场比赛出场了31分钟，16投7中，三分球6中2，罚球4中3，拿下了19分4篮板2助攻的数据。

At first glance, the stats of this game are not bad, but at the critical moment when the team needs him to stand up and score, Joe Johnson gave back to the team with strikes again and again.

This is obviously not the performance that a leading star should give.

Seeing many players on the court playing sleepwalking performance, Liu Rui was also very helpless.

This team is not only getting younger, but also with the continuous addition of new players, the team's style of play is also constantly improving.

This also caused the running-in between players to become very slow, and on the real field, these loopholes also began to appear.

The most stable players in the game were Gerald Wallace and Okafor.

华莱士出场了32分钟，10投5中，三分球4中2，罚球2中1，拿下了13分8篮板5助攻2次抢断的数据。

Okafor also contributed 12 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks.

However, most of the team's outside offensive points were inaccurate, which also caused the Bobcats to lose to the Nets at home.

The Big Three on the Nets' side also delivered a good result, and the absolute hero who can win the Nets is of course Vince Carter.

卡特全场出场了38分钟，23投11中，三分球4中1，罚球7中6，砍下了29分4篮板3助攻的数据。

Jefferson had 22 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Kidd also scored a quasi-triple double with 12 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists.

In addition to the outstanding performance of the Big Three, the Nets' starting center Krstic also played an excellent performance in this game.

He made 11 of 7 free throws and 6 of 5 free throws in the game. He scored 19 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist. His accurate mid-range shooting has also become one of the important contributors to the Nets' ability to win the game.

Liu Rui, who lost the game, also shook hands with Nets head coach Frank, then turned around and left first, and did not participate in the post-match press conference.

Liu Rui's mind is currently in some confusion. After the start of the new season, the Bobcats did not lose to the enemy, but to themselves first.

On this day, in addition to the Bobcats, Bickerstaff, who coached the Warriors as the head coach for the first time this season, also led the team to its first victory.

While winning the first win of the Warriors' coaching career, it also ushered in a good start to the season for the team.

The new star of the Warriors, the bearded Baron Davis, also scored 25 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in his debut game.

Help the Warriors at home with:

107:92
Beat the Hornets.

And because of Liu Rui's proposal, Bickerstaff also increased the playing time of this year's second-round pick Monta Ellis.

Monta Ellis also scored 23 points and 10 assists in the 2 minutes he played, and he can be regarded as an offensive firepower on the bench.

With the Bobcats' loss in this game, they will also have two days of rest in the next two days before flying to New York to challenge the Knicks.

Liu Rui also handed over the training arrangements for these two days to Montgomery.

After all, if you really want to talk about the cultivation of rookie players, Liu Rui must be better than most people in terms of thinking.

Because he knows what these stars look like at their peak.

But if you really want to say that in terms of training methods, then Liu Rui is far behind the NCAA basketball godfather.

Taking advantage of the rare rest these two days, Liu Rui also went home to relax his mind.

In the past two days, because of the team's affairs, Liu Rui's brain was overloaded, and he also felt a little upset.

.....................

April 10

"What's the matter, Xiao Rui, you've been looking sad for the past two days. What difficulties have you encountered at work?"

Looking at Liu Rui who was sitting on the sofa holding a notebook to write and draw while drinking Coke, Somiya also put the washed fruit on the coffee table.

Although Liu Rui hired a nanny to take care of the little girl Limia when Somiya and Liu Rui were not at home.

But when Somia is not in the restaurant, she can't stay idle at home. Even if the nanny has already done it, she still can't help doing it again.

Several times of persuasion had no effect, so Liu Rui had no choice but to follow Somia.

"Hey, it's true that there are some things that don't go well at work, but it's not a big problem. It's just that my expectations are too high, so it's inevitable that I will be a little disappointed now."

Facing Somia, Liu Rui did not hide anything.

As Liu Rui said, for the future development of the Bobcats, Liu Rui's personal expectations are too high, so the effect of the current play, the contrast between before and after is too great, this is what makes Liu Rui feel disappointed.

As a reborn, Liu Rui was able to find the seedlings of future stars one step ahead, but he did forget that even these future stars will reach the peak step by step.

There are only a handful of rookies in the entire league whose debut is the pinnacle.

Liu Rui inevitably thought too optimistic before, thinking that he only needed to get these people together in advance, then this team would be invincible.

But when the team had a group of future stars with high potential, Liu Rui realized how ridiculous his original thoughts were during the training process.

"Hey, I don't understand your matter, but I can only say that the body is the most important thing. By the way, I have another thing to tell you. The restaurant has now entered a state of profitability."

"Although I know that you don't intend to rely on this restaurant to make money, but today's restaurants are also making a lot of money every day. Limia and the two of us have enough for our daily expenses, so you don't need to leave us any more money."

"And you don't have to buy anything at home, I will add it regularly."

When Somiya first moved here, Liu Rui was afraid that she would not get used to living there, so he opened a restaurant just for her.

After all, Suomia opened a small restaurant before coming here.

Liu Rui didn't intend this restaurant to be profitable. The purpose of opening it was also to find something for Somia to do. Otherwise, with Somia's strong personality, it would be difficult for him to stay here.

And if it wasn't for the little girl Limia, Somia would definitely not have agreed to Liu Rui's move to a big city.

"Oh?! It seems that Aunt Sawyer really has a natural mind for business."

Originally, Liu Rui almost forgot that he opened a restaurant for Somia before, but now he was a little surprised when he heard Somia's words.

In less than a year, under Somiya's hand, the restaurant has started to make a profit, which is obviously unexpected by Liu Rui.

However, Liu Rui didn't think too much about it. The restaurant is not very big, and even if it can make a profit, the amount may be limited. Liu Rui didn't put his mind on it at all.

What's more, during the offseason, Liu Rui also purchased some small properties in Charlotte.

Although there is not much working capital in hand at present, in addition to purchasing real estate, Liu Rui also invested most of his net worth in the "Heavenly Selection" policy.

However, Liu Rui is very confident that in the future, the real estate in his hands will double like a rocket.

Moreover, the salary of the contract signed this season has not yet been paid. After cash is in hand, Liu Rui also plans to invest in the real estate industry first.

After all, this is the safest way Liu Rui can think of to make money without losing money.

Because even after being reborn, Liu Rui didn't understand those things about starting a business.

I haven't paid attention to the messy stock market situation, and I don't even understand the rise and fall of the stock market.

Although you can gamble on football, Liu Rui, who is well aware of the shady scenes, knows that gambling is not necessarily the same as in history.

If you invest too much, the banker may turn back at any time, so if you really want to gamble for fun, Liu Rui can still consider playing for a while, but he has never considered this as a way to make money.

So after being reborn, Liu Rui found that he could earn the most money without losing money. The easiest and most direct way was to buy real estate and wait for the value to rise.

Although the process is relatively slow, at the very least, Liu Rui's investment is absolutely guaranteed.

bell ~ bell ~ bell

While the two were talking, Liu Rui's cell phone rang suddenly.

Originally, Liu Rui thought it was someone from the team who called him. After all, the rhythm of the team is quite chaotic now.

Although I handed it over to Montgomery, if there is any problem, they will definitely notify me as soon as possible.

Hearing the ringing of the phone, Liu Rui felt a little headache.

Although I really didn't want to answer it, but I was afraid of something important, so I had no choice but to pick up the phone.

But after taking out his mobile phone, Liu Rui found out that the call was from Bickerstaff.

"Hey, Piccolo, haha, congratulations, congratulations on your first victory in your warrior career."

Seeing that Bickerstaff called him, Liu Rui remembered that he forgot to call to congratulate Bicker for his first victory in his warrior career.

After all, no matter how you say it, Piccolo is also an assistant coach who came out under his own hands.

"Haha, don't say that, last year when I temporarily led the Bobcats, I won the first game, and then I lost more than a dozen games in a row..."

"Cough cough..."

Hearing Bickerstaff's words, Liu Rui also felt a little speechless. Although it was all true, this guy was really the killer of silence.

"What's the matter, Piccolo, what's the matter with calling me? Don't tell me that you have to consult me ​​even if you have something to do as the head coach. This is not the demeanor that a master should have."

After receiving Piccolo's call, Liu Rui also teased Bickerstaff.

After all, when the two are together, they often tease each other.

Although most of the time, it was Liu Rui who unilaterally cheated him...

"There is nothing too much. First of all, I would like to thank you. It feels really good to be the head coach, and the Warriors seem to be better than last year."

"I didn't expect that they really got Baron Davis in the summer. If it wasn't for your suggestion, I'm afraid I would have missed this opportunity."

"Although I don't know what it will lead to, but at least I am confident now that the record will definitely be much better than last year."

The lineup of the Warriors last season was really appalling. With the joining of Davis this season, although there are potential injuries, the Warriors, who are currently keeping all members healthy, are still an offensive firepower that cannot be underestimated.

"By the way, I've been with you for so long, and of course I know how you look at newcomers, so I'm curious what kind of height Monta can reach in the future."

"For his playing time, how much should I give."

As Liu Rui's first chief assistant coach, Bickerstaff knows how Liu Rui sees newcomers.

The reason why the Bobcats were able to reach the Eastern Conference semifinals last season was because it had a lot to do with Liu Rui's operation in the middle of the season.

Several rookie deals in the middle of the season finally showed a perfect result. For this vision, Bickerstaff was deeply impressed, and he really couldn't learn it.

"Well... In recent years, his talent on the offensive end is quite high."

"However, in my opinion, his offensive style is more like icing on the cake, and it is difficult to give timely help in the true sense."

"So I think you can train him to the position of the sixth man first. After all, on the bench, it can be said that he exists like a gangster on the bench."

After thinking for a while, Liu Rui still gave the most pertinent evaluation.

In the previous life, why did the Warriors choose to give up Monta Ellis, who was in his peak season, and choose to renew Curry, who has potential injuries.

In addition to someone's unique vision, it is precisely because Ellis' contribution on the offensive end is more like icing on the cake, it is difficult to give timely help in the true sense.

He can make a team's offensive firepower stronger, but it is difficult for him to lead a weak team into a truly strong team.

Although there was Monta Ellis' participation in the Black Eight Miracle Year.

But in that year, the real main attack point of the Warriors was still the bearded Davis and the dunk king Richardson.

Combining some signs from his previous life, Liu Rui still told Bickerstaff his true thoughts.

As for what the Warriors management thinks, how to use Bickerstaff, and whether the two parties will reach an agreement.

That's obviously their own business...
