Chapter 526 [Hot coach, locker room leader]
Yang Rui was very calm at the press conference. Faced with questions from reporters, he answered easily: "Could it be that a 226CM super center and the league's leading scorer mainly attack the basket and make breakthroughs. There are only 3 free throws in the whole game, everyone. Do you think it's reasonable? The Lakers make a lot of free throws, but it's determined by the style of play. Look at the proportion of low-post offenses on both sides, it's difficult for the Spurs to hit the penalty area and score."
Yang Rui's few words show that the Lakers are the victims, and the third game is the black whistle. The Lakers' low-position attack is indeed more than the Spurs, and they are not afraid of the fans to verify.
Crawford's whistleblower has been very low-key, and Popovich roared again and again on the sidelines, pinching his old waist, and was not ejected until the third quarter.When Duncan showed an indescribable expression, he didn't get a technical foul.
After the game, Popovich didn't publicly question Crawford, which would only get him a fine.At the press conference, he kept putting on a stinky face to express his displeasure.
He is one of the most hot-tempered coaches in the league. Since he was the Spurs coach in 1996, he has been in the league for 9 seasons, and his temper has not subsided. Counting this time, Popovich has accumulated 11 expelled.
This number will increase in the future. In Yang Rui's previous life, Popovich was ejected more than 25 times, and he was ejected 15 times at home. He is the king of the Spurs' technical offenders.
Others suspect that Popovich will deliberately send himself off to motivate the team. Some reporters found that Popovich deliberately called a timeout before being sent off.
Popovich was expelled to make things worse. The next game will be played at the Lakers' home court. The referee did not dare to blow the home whistle too much. The Spurs' situation will be slightly better.
In fact, even if he didn't do it, David Stern wouldn't play in the fifth game between the two sides.There are a lot of fans watching this game, and if the whistle is obviously biased, it will ruin the entire series.
On June 6, the fifth game kicked off at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
After Yang Rui came to the arena, he found that the locker room was very quiet. Even Damon Jones, who usually jokes the most, was silent. Everyone waited quietly for the game to start.
In fact, the biggest problem for the Lakers is the lack of a locker room leader. Kobe's character determines that he is not a qualified locker room leader. He likes to be alone.This kind of person doesn't need high ball skills, but he needs to convince the players, let everyone communicate more, and act as a glue.
Yang Rui asked many people to talk alone.
"Yao, how was your shooting practice this morning?"
"not bad."
"Boldly shoot from beyond the [-]-point line. You are the easiest person on the team to get the shot. Even if Duncan wants to cover you, it is not easy. When you screen, try to stay outside the [-]-point line as much as possible, which can keep Duncan further away. Don't hesitate to shoot at the rim. In the second half of the regular season, your low-post offense will increase. I don't care how Kareem and Divac guide you, but you can't copy the style of your predecessors. To go your own way, you can be more comprehensive.”
Yang Rui and Yao Ming communicated in Chinese, so they were not afraid to listen.
Yao Ming entered the playoffs, his three-point shooting rate was as high as 40%, but he made fewer shots. He made a total of 2 goals. This is not what Yang Rui wants to see. The reduction in shooting means the ability to empty the air is weakened.
When the opponent's inside line is relatively soft, Yao Ming can play to the basket, and the shooting rate near the basket is high.But when encountering a team like the Spurs that is good at defending in the penalty area, Yao Ming pulls out to shoot and organize to make the opponent feel more uncomfortable, because the Spurs are much harder to defend against Kobe than to defend against him.
Yang Rui said to Mo Williams: "I will let you substitute today, not because you are not playing well, but because you are more and more confident with the ball. I think it is a waste not to give you the ball. When you come off the bench, you have to be resolute in your catch and shot, and if it's Malone switching defenses, pass him!"
Mo Williams is more confident the more he plays. He usually learns a few tricks from Kobe in the team, and his offense is excellent. If Yang Rui gives him enough ball rights, he can average more than 15 points per game.
The person Yang Rui talked about the most was Iguodala. He played very badly in this series. He was sluggish against Manu Ginobili, and his mentality became a little impatient.
Manu Ginobili shined in the 2004 Olympics. Facing the Dream Team, a group of stars led the team to win, and even won the Olympic MVP. This season, he is even more powerful. It is normal for Iguodala to have the upper hand. .
"Andre, you don't have to do too much on the offensive end, wait for the opportunity to shoot, and defensively, I hope you can do better. Before you put Ginobili at a distance, it didn't work well. Today you try to fight close to yourself, Stop him from catching the ball, focus on off-ball prevention, and use strength to disrupt his rhythm. If he gets out of the screen, and it's Duncan, Malone, or someone who can make mid-range shots, you just switch defenses and hand Manu Ginobili to your teammates. . If it's Mohammed covering, you're going after double-teams."
Iguodala said sternly: "I will definitely do it well."
"I believe in you, relax, fight boldly, today is our home court, the referee can't blow you down in a few minutes."
The work on the offensive end is simple. If the defense is not good, Iguodala will be embarrassed to start.In the future, when he is older, he likes to "play dead" on the Warriors, and he will go all out in key games. Now he is still a good young man who is very motivated.
Several veteran Yang Rui didn't need to communicate much, they just said hello casually. People like Hoiberg, Rasheed, Odom and others knew how to play when they came on the court.
The players came out on time, Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant were the finale and received warm applause.
Yang Rui was also very popular with fans when he appeared. He waved to the fans around him, and then greeted movie stars such as Jack Nicholson, Adam Sandler and Leonardo who were sitting in the front row.
Yu Jia said: "Yang Rui is also very much like a star now. His outfit is unusual, and the casual suits he wears are all custom-made. Today, his good buddies and girlfriends didn't come to watch the game, and his friends are Facebook bosses who are very busy. Stana It's time for a movie."
Zhang Lili said: "In this way, he will put more energy on the court, and the Lakers will have a greater chance of winning. This game is very important, and the winning team has a better chance of advancing to the finals."
Stana has become Hollywood's hottest new actress through the Resident Evil series and Lost in Translation.From the very beginning, she followed the line of commercial action films, with a valiant image. Many commercial films looked to her for viewing mirrors, and they were relatively large productions. The starting point was not comparable to that of ordinary actors.
Thomas is busier. As the boss of Facebook, he has to be responsible for some decisions in the company, as well as a lot of entertainment.A person's career success has to pay a lot of price. Thomas needs to bring more bodyguards when he goes out, and his personal time is also reduced.
In the past, Thomas was very diligent in changing girlfriends, but now he is no longer stunned and has become a career-oriented.No way, he didn't dare to have a relationship with a woman anymore, worried that he would run into the flesh and blood who wanted to extort money. There are too many such people in the United States.
Too much is too much, successful people can't experience the easy life of ordinary people.
Thomas paid a lot for Facebook, and accepted a large number of shares happily. He was no longer polite to Yang Rui, and the two held a similar share.Moreover, Yang Rui has no real power in the company. Everyone knows that Thomas is the big boss. He is not as famous as Yang Rui, but he is more popular in the business circle.
Yang Rui has no opinion, even if he holds a small share of the shares, it is acceptable. It is because of his disdain for money that Thomas and him have never had a conflict on the issue of interests, and they get along as happily as when they were poor.
After the players warmed up, the game began.
