Chapter 100: Space Yi, join the team!(1/2)
"Okay, boss, I'm going to ask for a price now!"
Sean Marks was so stunned this time. Is this calculated or not? Their dream plan was realized effortlessly in a summer league.
Really awesome!
Even before Sean Marks went to talk to Vandeweghe, someone took the initiative to find him.
Head coach Stevens’s expression is as if he’s seen a ghost. It’s okay for the boss to recruit him, but he’s such a genius in trading? Is this going to happen?
Everyone knows how to deal with the world, and the party who proposed the transaction will definitely suffer some losses. But now that the Nets have proposed it first, it is actually much easier for the Knicks to talk about it.
"Well, wait a moment, let me ask you one last time, from the management team to the coaching staff, do you really need and approve of Yi Jianlian joining the team? I hope it's not because of my relationship."
Downey Jr. directly flattered him: "That's a must! Who doesn't want the number one power forward in Asia?"
Jiang Chao frowned and waved his hand: "Seriously!"
Stevens and Sean Marks both suppressed their smiles, knowing what Jiang Chao meant.
There are only 17 players in the roster. Every player must have a role for the team and a future outlook. Otherwise, those who are purely related to households or pensioners will naturally not be welcome.
Even Jerome has been retained because of his unique position.
And now, what does yi have?
If he joins the team, can he help the current Knicks?
It's not just because of Jiang Chao's order that everyone can only do it and have to use their brains to think about it.
Sean Marks:
"Let me tell you first. The first thing is that he is still young. At the age of 23, he can start a youth storm with us. I have known him since 2007. He is just an acquired opportunity, but his hardware talent is outstanding enough.
, a player who works hard enough individually.
This also led him to write in the Spurs scouting report that "the individual technical actions are very good (so fixed-point shooting is also very good), but the combination is not so good, so his playing style cannot become the core."
Um.
Jiang Chao nodded. Sure enough, foreigners still felt that Ah Lian's movements were too easy to see through and he was not suitable for being a core player.
So Jiang Chao and many people have an idea, that is, if Ah Lian had Wang Zhizhi's skills, how awesome would it be? 0
This is indeed related to the career of Arab League. Compared with players like Wang Zhizhi who come from a family of national players, Arab League was still playing wildball on the streets of Shenzhen at the age of 15, which was already too late.
Here in the United States, train to train has already ended during this period.
At this time D'Antoni also spoke:
"Boss, what you are talking about is actually very suitable for running and gunning, not for positioning. I have seen the video of his CBA championship.
His style of play in the CBA has been finalized. His defense relies on athletic ability and he is relatively strong in defense. On the offensive end, he can make mid-range shots. Occasionally, he will use skills to play in the low post during bad moments. He rushes faster than all insiders.
, I should remember it correctly.
So if we have a running lineup, he is quite suitable, but we really need to make a choice to make him become a Chinese Stoudemire-like existence."
call.
This is a very high rating. Stoudemire is also an explosive running and jumping insider who is strong in offense and weak in defense.
"Yes, sir, you really don't forget to run and attack at all times."
Jiang Chao smiled.
He also considered whether to let Arab Lian develop low-post skills that are commonly used by insiders now. Thinking about it, it was still impossible. He would just face the challenge.
What Mustache said is closely related to the Guangdong team. Yi Jianlian is also sad. As soon as he joined the team, Zhang Yongjun of the Guangdong Men's Basketball Team, who was good at training young people, was dismissed from get out of class.
Li Chunjiang is a tactical coach, and he is a representative of pragmatism. You cannot act as a personal hero, so he has a situation where a hundred flowers bloom like kings, pigs, pigs, and Alian Du Feng.
However, this results in that everyone is not strong enough and does not have core skills enough. Li Chunjiang will not fully explore the potential of young people, and people like Chen Jianghua and Liu Xiaoyu only dabble in it.
Yi Jianlian didn't even have to defend the opponent's top inside line most of the time in Hongyuan, because the defensive end was used to guard the opponent's inside line, and the offensive end was handled by the blue-collar Jackson at the time.
Even the national team has Yao always standing behind him, and he is always very comfortable on the defensive end of the team.
Li Chunjiang's employment methods and the UAE's domestic game experience paved the way for Yi Jianlian's criticized single defense and lack of high-position support after arriving in the NBA.
Messina, the most professional in tactics, made a tactical coordinator at this time:
"It's like this. His technical movements seem to me like frame drops, and he's not as flexible as those European big men.
So I actually want to say that he is not a positional tactical player at all, at least it is impossible to initiate tactics through him."
"Say, I won't scold you..." Jiang Chao looked at Messina from time to time as he spoke, gesturing for him to continue.
"In our European leagues, almost all are positional battles. Positional battles require breaking the opponent's defensive holes, mobilizing the opponent, and changing their defensive formation. Only in this way can we achieve tactical goals.
The low post and high post support on the inside, the ball-holding attack on the outside, and the outside playmaker at the top of the key are all ways to achieve tactical goals."
"But unfortunately, Yi Jianlian has almost none of these abilities.
There may be an occasional dunk that feints and then takes three big steps, but apart from boosting morale, the changes to the team's offensive end are very limited."
"So I think when he joins the team, he will be a sharp-edged inside player at most. It is a bit difficult to rely on him to play key goals."
"Well, I like you who tell the truth."
He deserves to be the king of Europe, and his requirements for insiders are much higher than those of other coaches. It’s no wonder that Europe produces good insiders. European insiders must have good skills, from King Nuo and his sister-in-law to Varan and Jokic in the back...
In comparison, the United Arab Emirates is indeed not good enough in Messina's eyes.
Jiang Chao also knew that what he said was euphemistic enough. Only Dayao in China had the ability to attract double-teams from inside positions. Dayao's support was also average, but Haddadi did a good job in this regard.
After Dayao retired, the reason why it was so difficult for the Arab League to be the leader was because the Arab League's support was too weak. He basically fell into individual offense in singles. The inside line, Wang Zhelin, and Zhou Qi all had the same functions, and could not completely change the opponent's defense.
I can't lead the whole team to win together.
but!
The Knicks now have the people Messina talked about who can play on the perimeter!
Use breakthroughs to attract flankers to the outside or under the rim, or if your scoring methods and abilities are strong enough, you can defeat your opponent by yourself, thus driving assists.
Isn’t this what Harden and Curry are talking about?
Why does a team need so many supports? In Jiang Chao's blueprint, the main focus is on the outside.
So in fact, does the UAE need to have the low-post support capabilities of Gasol and Gasol?
Not important.
Eat the cake and that’s it!
Instead, the concept of pie-eating was proposed by Shaoshuai and Cole. They also supplemented Messina's statement, saying that it is not necessary to force the inside line to participate in the initiation of positional tactics, and just let the outside line rush up to find opportunities.
Arab Lian uses his quick steps to move around to find open shots or cut in for dunks.
"There is no need for so much weakness, what we need is his jumping height and youthful strength!"
Jiang Chao pointed to the blackboard:
"Young Marshal, please come up with a summary. How will he play after he joins the team? If we vote and think it is appropriate, we will do it without thinking."
Stevens put his hands on his hips and smiled: "Isn't it appropriate for me to come? I've long wished Jerome had left."
Everyone knew that he had quarreled with Jerome, so he actually wanted to trade Jerome away unconditionally.
"Then Mark Jackson."
Jiang Chao motioned to the old guard who had been teammates with Dayao to go to the blackboard to make a final summary.
Mark Jackson stepped forward and summarized briefly:
"At this stage, he is a pure power forward who faces the frame, has a single offensive method, and his first step when facing the frame is faster than 99% of the inside players.
He has a certain three-point range and mid-range shooting. He is underweight and cannot play center for the time being. He has strong rebounding ability and can serve as a blue-collar power forward and become a rebounding helper for our team's center.
Although his position overlaps to some extent with Ibaka, he is taller and has wider shoulders. Don't think so rigidly. He can still improve his back-up ability. If he gains weight, he can be a center in a five-shooter lineup.
will fit.
I don’t know what the boss’s thoughts are in the future, but I would like to say that if he joins the team, my suggestion is to let him gain appropriate weight and strengthen his lower body, and then practice shooting like crazy to supplement our strength at the fourth and fifth positions.”
"Okay, let's vote."
Jiang Chao actually didn't need to say much, he just raised his hand to vote.
All fans who have watched the 2020 World Cup at home are proud of the final glory of the post-Yao Ming era. This is a truly ambitious veteran!
With high strength alone, you can mend the sky with one hand!
In fact, Arab League was not a chosen one. The national youth team was suppressed by Tang Zhengdong, and later was defeated by a bunch of insiders in Asia. However, he used his own efforts to carry the banner of Chinese basketball in the darkest time.
He is still improving until 2020!
What he actually wanted to say is that Arab League joining the Knicks will allow everyone to see the Chinese people's persistence and never admit defeat spirit, just like when he was in the Chinese men's basketball team. He knew that his style of play could not make him a leader, but he
Still shouldering this responsibility and responsibility, he has become a role model for young players!
In the end everyone voted in favor.
Messina thought that he couldn't really expect players like Jerome to be exchanged for talented European insiders...
To be continued...
