The Godfather of Basketball

Because of the temporary establishment of the foundation, Tang Tian was delayed for a while in China.

After the foundation was established, many people responded.

The domestic economy is developing rapidly, and more and more people are willing to contribute to charity.

And children can also attract more people's attention.

The foundation of the foundation is just the beginning, and it will gradually merge with the American foundation in the future.

After another week of stay, the time has come to early September.

Tang Tian finally got on the plane back to the United States.

This time I stayed in the country for 2 months. In addition to doing business, I also made up for my hometown.

The preseason starts in October, but for a new team, training should begin in mid-September, and a series of preparations for the team should also be completed before this.

Back in Oklahoma City, Tang Tian began to call back the coaching staff one after another.

In the Brooks era, the Thunder's offensive and defensive tactics are relatively monotonous, it is necessary to develop one or several suitable tactics according to the new lineup, and for the core of the team, it must also develop an appropriate training plan.

Thunder's existing lineup.

Point guards: Westbrook, Kidd, Reggie Jackson

Shooting guards: Sovrosa, Harden, Bezmore

Small forwards: Durant, PJ Tucker, Middleton

Power forwards: Ibaka, Dior, Collison

Centers: Kwame Brown, Cole Aldridge, Oquin

What kind of starting lineup to use and what kind of rotation are also issues that need to be discussed.

"First discuss the tactics for next season, and then decide which starting lineup to use based on the tactics." Tang Tian chaired the meeting.

"Modern basketball increasingly emphasizes speed and three-pointers. I think we can consider playing a small lineup, let Ibaka go to the center, let Durant play the power forward, and then go to Sovrosa, Harden and Westbrook, this can push the team's speed to the extreme, so that the opponent is exhausted. "Wharton is very active, said the first.

Tang Tian nodded, this lineup is his ideal lineup in the future.

"On the defensive end, the small team's assist defense rotation is faster than that of the Rockets and the Cavaliers' large and four small players. The constant bundling can ensure the defensive strength while creating many opportunities for steals and counterattacks." When Tang Tian nodded, Wharton continued.

Tang Tian smiled.

In the previous life, Wharton had been the first assistant coach of the Warriors for two years, and he also had an excellent record when he led the team alone. It seems that he understands the small lineup.

"I think that if you encounter Yao or Dwight inside, this kind of configuration will fall. The defense rotation can deal with the front or the guard, but in the penalty area, even if you are double-ended, Ibaka and Durant can stop What about them? "Kenny Sanchez, the team's assistant coach for inside player training, retorted.

"How do you know if you don't try?" Wharton was a little dissatisfied.

"Luke's idea is very good, and this is our future construction goal." Tang Tian affirmed Wharton.

"But before Ibaka can stay alone in the restricted area, we still need time to transition."

Wharton said that the set is very similar to the warriors of the previous life, but Ibaka ’s defense is still worse than that of Green, especially the inside top card, and even the warrior is in the regular lineup. There are big centers.

"Brad, what do you say?" Tang Tian looked at Stevens, the first assistant who gave him high hopes.

Others also looked at Stevens.

The Thunder ’s coaching staff and the two core assistants are NBA rookies. Others will inevitably be contemptuous. If you ca n’t come up with some dry goods, it is difficult to convince the public.

"There are actually many tactics suitable for this team, but compared to tactics, I think the bigger problem for this team is to determine who is the core of tactics first."

As soon as Stevens spoke, a few assistants laughed.

Yes, this opening is nonsense!

The core of this Thunder team is obviously Durant, and the core is determined. Sure enough, the NCAA set is not suitable for the NBA, and it is also an academic coach!

Stevens did not care about the reaction of other coaches, but continued to talk eloquently.

"Durant is not suitable for tactical core."

His next sentence made the meeting place noisy.

How dare you say it!

"Since Kevin joined the Thunder, he has been the core of the team's thunderbolt!" Durant's personal training assistant, John Whitman directly retorted.

Everyone else nodded their heads, and there is no need to doubt this.

"You misunderstood, I am talking about the core of tactics, like LeBron James, Yao Ming, or Chris Paul. To become the core of tactics, the passing ability must be excellent." Stevens Not angry, just said with a smile.

Tang Tian nodded as he listened.

Durant's passing is really not good, his strength is his ability to shoot.

"Continue." Tang Tian motioned to Stevens to continue.

Stevens nodded and continued to speak: "Now we have two options, Westbrook or Harden. Honestly, they all have areas to improve. Westbrook needs to learn to be a real point guard. Ha Deng needs to improve his performance on the defensive end. "

"Who do you think is more appropriate for them?" Tang Tian asked, and he found Stevens's ideas very interesting.

"Both people can do it. If Westbrook is to be the core of tactics, then we have to play Kidd and play a combination of two point guards. On the one hand, we can reduce the pressure on the former organization. Kidd's handling of the ball.

If Harden is the core of tactics, then we have to have a defensive guard on the court, such as Sovrosa. "

"You mean Westbrook starts, Harden has to be replaced, Harden starts, Westbrook has to be replaced?" Shooting coach Peja Stojakovic asked.

"The current situation is like this. When one of them improves where it needs to be improved, it is when they appear together in the starting lineup." Stevens continued.

His remarks suddenly made the meeting another discussion.

Westbrook has always been the team's starter ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ and Harden has just signed a top salary contract. It is not suitable for anyone to play the bench!

Tang Tian thought that Stevens said something very enlightening.

In fact, what Stevens conceived was a bit like the rocket of the previous life.

Westbrook, Harden, and Paul and Harden are all threats with the ball, and then they are paired with a group of shooters.

But unlike the previous rocket, there is a Kevin Durant in this group of shooters.
