Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 34: team meeting

Ask how a team is torn apart by trade rumors and look at the '0708 Bulls. In the face of the olive branch thrown by Kobe Bryant, the first player in the league, the Bulls wanted to grab the greatest shooting guard after Jordan and rebuild the Bulls dynasty, but they were unwilling to pay too high a bargaining chip for the team to make up for the future. Qiang faced too much trouble, and the final result was that the military was disillusioned. The Bulls, whose lineup has not changed much, suddenly fell out of the playoff roster from the top four teams in the Eastern Conference the previous year. If it hadn’t been for the No. 1 pick in the subsequent draft and Derrick Rose was selected, it would be considered compensation. Bulls fans have to hate Kobe Bryant.

Now, the Nets are also facing the same situation. After the trade rumors came out, Stevens put out the rumors in the team for the first time, and promised the players that there was no plan to trade for Anthony. There is still no way to fundamentally lift the players' mentality of being in danger. What's worse, the fans at the Nets' home court didn't make people worry, and actually put up a slogan, "We need Carmelo!"

Fans are creatures, sometimes they can really be a disservice. If the old birds are battle-hardened and don’t care about this, a group of young people in the Nets team will either be in the Nets after the draft, the team’s performance is good, the atmosphere is good, or they are all despised by others, okay? It's easy to find confidence in the Nets, which can put everyone at risk.

In a game where Jiang Mingliang wanted to win to slap someone in the face, the Nets lost to the Bulls 91-104 at home. The Nets suffered their second home loss this season. Derrick Rose scored 38 points and cloth Zell scored only 8 points amid the boos of the audience, but took away the victory. This can be regarded as a resounding slap in the face to the fans.

After that, they lost to the Portland Trail Blazers and the Utah Jazz successively in the road trip, and were surpassed by the Magic and the Eagles successively, dropping to sixth in the Eastern Conference.

In this case, Jiang Mingliang and Stevens must do something, otherwise the team will destroy the Great Wall just like the Bulls two years ago.

Stevens and Lopez took the lead, including Jiang Mingliang and Will Craig in the management team, and started another player meeting for the team.

"Recently, there have been rumors about the team's trade with Anthony. This has also affected the mentality of some players in the team, and this mentality is directly reflected in the performance on the field. This phenomenon is not good, you are all professional players. , you should have the basic ability to adjust your own psychology." To manage the team, it is not blindly tender, encouragement, and appropriate pressure is necessary.

When he said this, Jiang Mingliang looked at George, while George was a little overwhelmed, and avoided Jiang Mingliang.

No one wants to leave the bustling New York (East Rutherford is very close to New York) and go to the Northwest Plateau. Not to mention, George is in the team like a duck to water, and he doesn't want to leave.

"Paul, tell me about your scenes...

Where the game did not perform well. "Jiang Ming said brightly.

"Tsk, my shots have increased, but my efficiency has declined. It's easier to play on offense." Paul George said with a look of embarrassment.

"What else?" Jiang Mingliang looked at George, saw that he didn't speak, and added, "If it's an offensive problem, I can understand that you hit the rookie wall, and other teams are watching you and studying your style of play. , it makes you very uncomfortable. But on the defensive end, your filling and help defense are not as active as before, that is what I can see.”

The Bulls' flank, Luol Deng, is really good in defense. He also has a good mid-range shot and quite strong physical fitness on the offensive end, but his shortcomings are not without it. Dribbling generally leads to poor offense with the ball. It is a lot weaker, and the other flank Bogans is also average in all aspects. If Paul George helps defend well, how can Rose play so badly?

After Jiang Mingliang sang the black face, Stevens came over to sing the red face, "Everyone, what I want to say is that if you can observe the team's tactical system more clearly, you can understand that we don't really need an Anthony. Or , we can't afford an Anthony. He's great, but not for us."

If an Anthony is directly added to the Nets' existing lineup, he will only replace Anderson's position as the team's power forward. Not to mention whether he is willing or not, the Nets will take the lead in exchange?

George is the perimeter core at both ends of the team's offense and defense. Although Korver is not so outstanding in ability, while this player makes contributions on the field, he is also a mentor to young players on the training ground, including George, Bledsoe, Players including Danny Green and Jeremy Lin have asked him about shooting skills, and he has not hesitated to teach them to these people. He even directed Whiteside's free throws. A player who is also a player, a shooting coach, and a "trash can" in the locker room (everyone can talk to him), Jiang Mingliang wants him to stay in the team forever.

Stevens stated in front of the management that he would not trade for Anthony. The credibility of this statement is much higher. At the end of the players meeting, Jiang Mingliang called George to his office, gave some encouragement, and re-emphasized that in the eyes of himself and Stevens, George's transaction value is higher than Anthony. As soon as these words came out, the stone in George's heart was finally put down.

Although he promised not to exchange George for Anthony, but think about it, how many people in the league can be more valuable than Anthony? Isn't that the same as declaring that you are not for sale?

After the three-game losing streak, the Nets ushered in a suitable opponent to end the losing streak. They will fly to the capital to challenge the Washington Wizards led by No. 1 pick Lang Wall and general Arenas.

In 2009, the gun-carrying event that shocked the United States made Arenas infamous for thousands of years. Long-term unscientific training destroyed his knees. After he was recovering from a serious injury, his physical fitness was not as good as before. What followed was Deterioration of scoring ability. ......

The ball-conflict between him and Wall is also obvious to anyone with a discerning eye. To choose between the young and promising Wall and Arenas, who has fallen off a cliff in all aspects, all fools know how to choose. However, the management's decision angered Arenas and his small group in the locker room, including Butler, who were dissatisfied with the team's preference for Wall. The return of the Wizards has shown a state of disintegration.

Before the game, Jiang Mingliang also got the news that this game was temporarily included in the broadcast list by TNT, and it was broadcast live in the United States. This is also the first time the Nets have been treated to a national broadcast so far this season. Jiang Mingliang excitedly told Stevens the good news, and also raised his expectations.

After hanging up the phone, Stevens also shared the good news with the players in the locker room. Immediately, everyone had their own little Jiujiu in their hearts.

Why did TNT pull this game into the broadcast list? Because this is a direct conversation between two of the best rookies in the class of 2010. Due to the existence of repeater Blake Griffin, George and Wall almost lost the opportunity to compete for the best rookie, but who is the best one in the 2010 rookie, there is still some suspense.

The team with internal and external troubles averaged 15.6 points and 8.4 assists per game, and has adapted to the league very quickly. Wall's performance is worthy of the expectations of the champion. The controversial third pick, George, proved in the new season how accurate the Nets management's vision is. Averaging 15.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 1.1 blocks per game, George's performance is called all-around. For now, George is slightly ahead and second on the rookie list because the Nets are currently in the playoffs, while the Wizards are third from last in the Eastern Conference.
