Chapter 224 The training effect is better
After this game, the Blazers got valuable rest time, because there are still two days before the sixth game. According to McMillan's idea, let the players fully rest on the first day, and cooperate in the training session on the second day Running tactics, you can quietly wait for the Suns to play in the Rose Garden Arena.He is determined to win this round of the series. As for the opponent in the next round, he should wait until the Suns are eliminated before thinking about it.
After returning to Portland, McMillan asked the players to disband after a few words, but Roy stayed at the end.When everyone was almost gone, he went up to him and asked in a low voice, "Coach, do I have a chance in the next game? I think my performance in the fifth game was very poor. I'm a little afraid of causing the team to lose at home." . I know everyone has worked hard, and I don't want to ruin their hard work."
McMillan patted him on the shoulder and said gently: "Just wait and see tomorrow's training status for the specific situation. Although I haven't confirmed the starter and substitute for the next game, I believe you and your teammates can play the same way as before. This kind of combination is very lethal. Forget about it after the game. No matter how bad you think you played, the next game is still brand new. Go back and have a good rest. I look forward to seeing you in the training session Performance."
Roy was stunned for a while, nodded to the head coach, turned and walked to the parking lot.Looking at the back of him leaving, McMillan smiled and murmured to himself: "You are not as bad as you think, Brandon, but if you don't even have confidence in yourself, the next game will be difficult." It really has nothing to do with you."
But when it came to the training session the next day, Roy's performance surprised him.Although it looks a little sluggish, whether it is running or shooting, it is very different from the previous game, and this is developing in a good direction.That's right, he still doesn't dare to do some actions with a relatively high risk factor, but this does not prevent him from moving flexibly on the field, like a slippery loach.And Ye Feng also entered the state. Whenever Roy appeared in the open position, his pass would arrive immediately, and then he would make an easy shot. One person scored points and one person made assists.
Now the Blazers don't need defenders to handle the ball at all, and Ye Feng can take care of all the offensive tasks by himself.Although Roy is back, at least at the moment, the Blazers' tactical system is still centered on Ye Feng, because compared with Roy, he has a stronger breakthrough ability and a wider field of vision. Because he is taller than Roy.Roy did not express any objection to this. He knew that what the team needs most now is stability, and he can score well. There is no need to change the tactical configuration of the team that has been honing in for many games.
The Blazers' training sessions have always been quite popular. Although McMillan strictly forbids players to make dangerous moves that may cause injuries to teammates during training, he encourages them to take the initiative to find confrontations, regardless of their status as the main force or the substitute. As the core, Ye Feng has always been taken care of during the training sessions. Batum and the others don't care if you are the team's starter and core, as long as there are no injuries, you can defend in any way you want.So each training session is like killing Ye Feng half his life, just a little bit of experience with the stalking brown sugar defense, and playing like this all the time will make everyone tired.
But today is different, Roy's presence relieves him a lot of pressure.At the beginning, everyone consciously lowered the intensity of defense against Roy, but unexpectedly he soon became active, helping the main team score consecutively with erratic running positions and precise shots. The substitute players had no choice but to strengthen defense against him.In this way, the burden on Ye Feng was much lighter, because it was impossible to defend him and Roy with three people. If they really did this, the old Miller who stayed on the outside would be enough for them to drink a pot.In fact, as long as he can maintain sufficient physical strength, the old Miller is a surprise soldier in the Blazers' starting lineup.
After a training session, the main lineup was very relaxed, and even chatted leisurely, while the substitute players slumped on their chairs like dead dogs, without even the desire to move.But this can't be blamed on them. Who can believe that a player who has returned from injury can integrate into the team's tactical system so quickly?Moreover, his own strength does not seem to have dropped much, at best it has changed from offense with the ball to offense without the ball, and the lethality still exists.They can focus on defending Roy, but let Ye Feng stand up and score. If two people are restricted at the same time, then Miller will be left alone.
Yes, this is such a difficult multiple-choice question, but fortunately they are teammates, the real test will be the turn of Gentry and his players to do.
Seeing the performance of the players in the training session, McMillan felt very relieved. He was also glad that he took a gamble and boldly added Roy, who had returned from injury, and unexpectedly achieved good results.He cleared his throat, smiled and said to the players: "I think everyone has seen it, and the players on the bench have experienced it personally. To be honest, I was a little surprised by Brandon's state. His performance is very good." Yes, almost at his normal level. I’m not exaggerating, you just think about his performance on the court.”
"In this way, I have more confidence in the next game. Although the sun is very strong, I have always consciously put us on the weak side, but now I want to say that we are also very strong, and The strength is not inferior to the Suns, because we are leading now, and we only need one game to make it to the semifinals. Believe me guys, I have always had confidence in you, but Brandon's return will not be enough for the next game The victory of the game has added a lot of weight, and you have also seen that with the cooperation of him and Ye, they can still play the same high-quality top offense as before."
"So, tomorrow night, let's send the opponent home in front of all the Trail Blazers fans in our own stadium. Now it's time to let them go back to vacation. What about us? We have to continue to move forward step by step Go ahead and let the other teams see what we're capable of. A lot of bad things happened this season, but we're still here. The next game is a war. I'm sure you'll win the whole series. victory!"
