Chapter 307: Opponents in the next game, the Celtics
Han Ning looked at Zach Randolph who looked excited and felt relieved.
As long as Zach Randolph can proceed as planned, the rest will be easy to say.
He stood up, walked to Zach Randolph, patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry Zach. I will arrange some new tactics to help you make more beautiful alley-catches."
Buttoned.”
Hearing this, Zach Randolph was even more moved.
Where can I find such a good head coach?
In order to help myself leave a good impression with the team owner and help myself get a bigger contract.
In order to help you show your full strength.
Not only did he move himself from the substitute position to the starting position, he also specially arranged some new tactics for himself!
Although Zach Randolph also knew very well that this kind of treatment would not last long.
After all, Dayao is recognized as the number one center in the league.
Replacing Yao in the starting lineup when he has no injuries will definitely put Han Ning under a lot of pressure from public opinion and performance.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for him to completely switch from the substitute position to the starting position.
He knew this very well.
Zach Randolph would be very satisfied if he could have three or five games.
In fact, even if he only had the opportunity to play one or two games, Zach Randolph felt extremely grateful to Han Ning.
After tricking Zach Randolph away who was looking moved and wanting to be his number one henchman, Han Ning called over his current number one henchman Steve Kerr.
Regarding the formulation and training of the team's new tactics, Han Ning still needs the assistance of Steve Kerr.
As for where to find this tactic?!
Isn’t this simple?!
Han Ning is very familiar with the tactics of the Heat, who will be connected with James, and the Clippers, known as the city of alley-oops.
Just make some slight changes to allow the Knicks to play a few more alley-oops.
He doesn't need this tactic to bring many points to the Knicks.
Even when Zach Randolph plays, even if the Knicks are more than ten points behind their opponents, he is not worried.
Anyway, with Dayao and the others, they can chase points when Zach Randolph comes off the court to rest.
After all, the Knicks will only let Zach Randolph start when they face a weak team.
The risk is not great.
After the game against the 76ers, the Knicks' opponents in the next few games are the Celtics and Timberwolves. They just moved to New Orleans and joined the NBA as an Eastern Conference team for the last time.
Hornets.
These three teams are not very strong right now.
The Celtics have been on a decline since their glory days in the 2001-02 season.
This season, the Celtics' performance is even more unsatisfactory. It won't be too difficult to win against the Celtics.
Although the Timberwolves will perform well this season despite the original historical process.
Even reached the Western Conference Finals during the playoffs!
Even if they ultimately lost to the Lakers, who had an f4 combination, it was enough to show that the Timberwolves had considerable strength this season.
However, this Timberwolves team is still not enough in Han Ning's eyes.
The reason is simple.
The Timberwolves, who have just completed the reorganization of the team's lineup, did not perform well at the beginning of this season!
There is still a lack of corresponding tacit understanding among the players, and it is difficult to develop corresponding techniques and tactics.
So at the beginning of the season, the Timberwolves really didn't pose any threat.
As for the New Orleans Hornets...
I understand everything.
Just put it like that.
These three teams.
Take the Knicks team in the original historical process.
The Knicks team without Yao, Allen Iverson, and Han Ning all won the game!
Doesn’t this explain anything?!
The next strong enemy the Knicks will face will be at the end of November, when the Knicks go on the road to challenge the Indiana Pacers.
Steve Kerr was called in, and the two discussed the new tactical arrangements.
Then Steve Kerr left Han Ning's office with a resentful expression on his face and went to the training ground for new tactical training.
Don't think too much.
Han Ning also knew very well why Steve Cole had such an expression.
Originally, when he deceived Steve Kerr, he once said that small ball tactics were his favorite tactical system.
It's just that after coming to the Knicks, the team not only stopped playing small ball tactics.
There are not even many players suitable for small ball tactics.
Now, Han Ning has begun to study other tactics for Zach Randolph.
If this tactic is a tactic that has a great impact on the team, then that would be fine.
But what use can these alley-oop tactics do to the team?!
Doesn’t it just look better?!
So when Steve Kerr learned that these were the new tactics that Han Ning asked him to discuss, a feeling of resentment was born from the bottom of his heart.
(Steve Kerr: Boss, you said small ball is king?! Have you forgotten?!)
(Han Ning:..........)
However, even though Han Ning knew Steve Kerr's inner emotions, he didn't pay too much attention.
joke.
Small ball tactics?!
Do you get paid to play small ball tactics?!
There is really money to be made by hitting alley-catches!
He's not stupid, why should he think about his choice?!
Finally, time passed day by day.
The Knicks welcome the next game after the 76ers.
Challenge the Boston Celtics away from home!
Entering the TD North Shore Garden Arena, Celtics fans are cheering for their home team.
As one of the founding teams of the NBA, even though the Celtics' current record is not good, there are still many fans who are willing to come to their home court to support the team.
After the players from both sides finished warming up, Han Ning stood in front of the bench, looked at Zach Randolph and said softly: "Zach, are you ready?!"
Zach Randolph nodded heavily.
Regarding this game, the Knicks players already knew in advance that Zach Randolph and Mutombo would replace Yao and Kurt Thomas as the starters.
No one has any opinion on this.
Dayao himself obeyed Han Ningyan.
Whether he is a starter or a substitute, there is not much difference.
Anyway, his playing time in each game is only about twenty minutes.
If Yao didn't have any objections, the other players would have even less objections.
However, in the commentary box, Barkley and Smith were extremely surprised after seeing the Knicks' starting lineup.
Chapter completed!
