Chapter 022 Mutual Achievements, Gains and Losses
"Can I participate in your pick-and-roll tactics practice?"
“Extremely welcome!”
After losing the game against the Bulls, the players on the Bucks have made some new changes.
Especially after the game, He Li brought Joel and some undrafts to practice pick-and-roll tactics and other basketball training in the training hall. Other players couldn't help but follow him, hoping to train with He Li.
Among these players, Reed is also among the players.
As a second-round pick, especially a second-round pick who was injured in the regular season last year and missed most games, Reed still feels very crisis-like.
If you don’t work hard and don’t play data, you may have to say goodbye to the NBA when the contract is over next season!
Reed knew very well that if he didn't seize the opportunity now, he might not have a chance to make a comeback!
He Li is a first-round pick after all, and the Bucks spent a lot of money to exchange for the team's sixth man Lindsey Hunter. Reed took the initiative to bow to He Li and proposed the idea of joining the group to keep warm. There is nothing to be ashamed!
Before Reed came, he actually made plans to be rejected by He Li.
He is not fast enough, not high enough, and not strong in assisting. He seems to be unable to help He Li at all. And he is an ordinary and not that important second-round pick, and He Li has every reason to reject him.
However, when he heard He Li's smile on his lips, Reed felt that he was drinking a bottle of iced Miller beer in this hot sun, from the inside out, and the voice was filled with a comfortable feeling that could not be described by the voice.
What surprised Reed even more was that Reed participated in the pick-and-roll training between He Li and other teammates. He Li actually took the initiative to cooperate with him to cover him and give him more and more comfortable scoring opportunities.
"This is simply incredible! He Li is a good person, no, he is my good boss!"
In just over a dozen minutes, Reed wanted to kneel down to He Li, kowtow and thank him, and recognize the thief as his father.
However, the feelings between people come and go quickly.
When He Li pointed out that Reed was not active enough in training and was not in place, he kept pointing at Reed in front of everyone, Reed felt very frustrated and almost felt uncomfortable to beat someone.
At this time, Reed felt that He Li's image as the boss became blurred again.
Afterwards, He Li also asked Reed to find an opportunity to pass the ball to him who had disassembled it.
Pick-roll, pick-roll, He Li can't just block Reed, and there will be no effect after disassembling it.
Only when He Li disassembled it, Reed used his shooting deterrence to lure other defensive players away, and then quickly passed the ball to He Li to help him get more opportunities to shoot openly, or to layups and dunks. This pick-and-roll tactic is complete.
Reed had to do it, and it was not without guards in the undraft.
The pick-and-roll tactics are actually the best point guard with offensive ability to cooperate with the inside, so that both inside and outside players have lethality and danger, making it more difficult for opponents to defend.
Reed has no problem with scoring ability, but his passing ability is a little poor. In other words, He Li's pick-and-roll performance is not as good as Reed's tactics.
The best pick-and-roll tactic is to achieve mutual success between players on the inside and outside, just like Carl Malone who achieved John Stockton's historical assist king, and John Stockton helped Carl Malone become the second person in history to score.
If Reed can accept He Li's plan, then Reed's scoring data and assist data will not be too bad. Of course, He Li's scoring data and hit rate will become better.
However, Reed obviously has a great obsession with the right to take action.
He Li understood that Reed couldn't change it for a while, that didn't matter. He Li still has a high tolerance for Reed, the little brother.
As for how to train Reed, there is no hurry. Anyway, the mountains are high and the waters are far away, so we will have a long way to go.
As long as you slowly exert influence on Reid, you can always moisten things silently and train Reid to become a qualified shooting and pick-and-roll tool.
Time is July 9th, and today the Bucks' opponent is Magic Blue Team.
In this game, He Li and Reed used the pick-and-roll for the first time on the court.
But because the cooperation time is too short, it seems a bit hasty. Although the Magic Blue Team is not strong, the pick-and-roll effect of He Li and Reed is not as good as expected.
In addition, Alstom continued to take action unscrupulously and occupied a large amount of the team's ball rights, which made the data of He Li and Reed not change much.
The Bucks won this game, but they did not have a good training and testing tactics.
Coach Stotts' heart is obviously aimed at He Li, and this time he led the team in the summer league, Coach Stotts also came with a political task.
George Carl needs to see all the abilities and potential of He Li, so Stotts cannot continue to let Alstom do whatever he wants.
On July 10, when the Bucks played against the Hawks, Alstom was placed on the bench by coach Stotts.
It seems that the team's troubles have been solved. He Li and Reed are in a good mood and the corresponding feel is also good.
In this game, He Li made 13 of 18 shots in the game, made 6 free throws, efficiently scored 32 points, and also had 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, performing very well.
Reed also performed brilliantly, with 10 of 16 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and 25 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal.
As for Alstom, who led the substitute lineup, he also scored 21 points with the start of the second and fourth quarters, but his shooting percentage was still not high, with only 8 of 19 shots.
Overall, the three Musketeers in the Bucks Summer League have very strong output firepower, and they can score 78 points in a game, accounting for more than 70% of the team's score.
After Alstom was placed on the bench, the ball rights issue between the Bucks' main players was also solved, which is indeed a good way to achieve the best of both worlds.
Coach Stotts saw He Li's running and jumping ability, scoring ability, tactical literacy, team leadership ability and leadership ability.
I also saw that Reed, who didn't perform much last year, performed very well in shooting, but there is still a lot of room for improvement from the real three Musketeers.
Of course, Alstom is not useless. At least Alstom's superstar playing style is not something that anyone can do, and anyone can play.
If Alstom's physical fitness is better and his shooting skills are improved, Alstom also has the chance to play the sixth man in the NBA regular season.
With He Li and others enjoying training and improvement, this Orlando Summer League has reached the penultimate day before the end.
On this day, the Bucks played a game with the Wizards. After the game, the Bucks played with all the NBA teams participating in the Orlando Summer League.
In this game, He Li felt average, but Reed felt good, so He Li did not need too much power to take action, but instead intends to win other game data.
In the whole game, He Li made 5 of 11 shots and 2 of 3 free throws, scoring only 12 points, but also scored 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks.
After the game, He Li felt that it was quite a pity that he didn't get a triple-double, but head players generally like to catch the ball and get a few moves, and the assist data is really hard to get.
In addition, the Wizards have the new No. 1 pick Kwame Brown in the penalty area and made great contributions to both offense and defense.
To be honest, in amateur competitions like the Summer League, Kwame Brown has truly shown the style of a general with her exaggerated physical talent, making people feel that the future is promising.
Although the Wizards finally lost the game between the Bucks and the Wizards, the Wizards were very satisfied with Kwame Brown's performance.
Other teams have to use their strength to play the Bulls, and the Wizards only need Kwame Brown to take the lead in charge.
However, two fists are ultimately hard to beat four-handed hands. The Bulls have too many inside lines. The Wizards are only Kwame Brown. After Kwame Brown ran out of strength, the Wizards quickly lost the score and eventually lost the game.
In 5 games in 30 games, the NBA team and the university team in the Orlando Summer League have a clear ranking.
On the last day of Orlando Summer League, soldiers vs. soldiers and generals, and they play another friendly match according to the team's rankings.
It was also coincidental that the Bucks and the University of Florida Gators both ranked second in their respective games.
On the last day, He Li couldn't wait to dunk a few on James White's head, but there was no chance at all, because James White was unable to play in the Gators.
Here we have to mention Billy Donovan, the head coach of the Gators, who later led the Gators to win two consecutive NCAA titles, and the Thunder coach who won the 73-winning Warriors in the Western Conference Finals in 2016.
Donovan's coaching style is to like to reuse point guards and insiders. He has developed "white chocolate" Jason Williams, Mike Miller, Matt Bonner, David Lee, and then Al Horford, Jockin Noah...
Basically, every NCAA team he coaches is a configuration of star players inside and outside.
Donovan can use the inside and outside, but he doesn't use the front line.
Therefore, Donovan coaches the Thunder, who is not familiar with Durant, but he gets along very happily with Westbrook.
Now James White is also "unfamiliar with the coach". The Gators now include Udunis Haslem, Matt Bonner, David Lee, and Anthony Robertson.
These players are not very impressive in participating in the NBA draft, but they are star players in NCAA.
James White is indeed in excellent physical fitness, but when he is in college, he is not valued by coaches, so he doesn't have much chance to play.
The Bucks are a bit unfair to fight the Alligator. With He Li, Reed and Alston's firepower are fully flashing the data, Donovan can only fight the main force.
As a result, He Li tried the first time he had the feeling of getting off work after checking in for the third quarter.
However, in the fourth quarter, James White played for more than ten minutes, but he only drew two goals by bumping and bumping, which was nothing strange.
After the match between the Bucks and the Gators, He Li's Orlando Summer League trip was completely over, and at the same time, he was one step closer to the NBA regular season.
However, James White's tragic situation also reminded He Li. Before he was unable to challenge the coach, it was the top priority to please the coach and get playing time!
The key to getting regular season playing time is the next stop - the Boston Summer League.
He Like is not satisfied with Orlando's summer league average of 21.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.8 blocks!
