Chapter 682 Bear child, be obedient! (18/70)
Chapter 682: Naughty kid, obedient!
"Wish, what's the most important thing for you this year?"
On Media Day, many reporters circled around Wei Xia.
After all, he is the only player in this team with traffic.
Perhaps some journalists would pester Nash to ask about his role in the new season for his feelings, but most journalists would have to look forward for their own jobs.
"The most important thing? Boge's growth," said Wei Xia. "The second important thing is to change a hairstyle."
In the old days, Wei Xia called Malawi's common long hair a strange hairstyle. In fact, he himself was not the same. He never knew how to take care of himself, and he only shaved it when he was too old to bear it, so many people mocked him as a tasteless country bun.
He didn't care at first, but when these reports frequently entered his life, which made his father and mother think that Wei Xia was really sloppy, he couldn't bear it.
On the other hand, Jay Wright also received a lot of attention.
The famous college coach who moved from the NCAA to the NBA is synonymous with the danger of being in trouble and the disgrace.
These self-respecting academics always don’t like some things in the business league, nor do they look down on those who dare to wear suits and stand on the sidelines to direct Fang Qiu’s mud legs without special training without special training.
But Wright has no problems.
"I'm an experienced coach, but in the professional league, I'm just a recruit, and I'm no different from the rookies who entered the league this year."
“Wish is the best player in the league in my eyes.”
"When you coach the best player in the league, the championship should be the only goal in your eyes."
A reporter familiar with Wright asked: "Will you move Villanova's four-back system to the NBA?"
"NONONO!" Wright smiled and shook his head. "Countless cases tell us that the tactical system in which NCAA can achieve success is unbearable in the NBA. I am proud of my past achievements, but this is a new chapter in my life. I decided to look forward and let the past pass."
At the media conference, 76 people showed a new look to the outside world.
Any reporter who comes to the 76ers media day for interviews has a feeling.
The 76ers are positive and energetic. There is a core player who is only 29 years old. Cousins and Hayward are also growing rapidly in the past four years. At first glance, there are many players in the team who can fight.
What the media saw was exactly what the 76 people wanted them to see.
The 76ers themselves are not without problems, they are just good at hiding their own problems.
After the media day ended, major platforms have published some articles that are optimistic about 76 people.
Many media have called them potential dynasty terminators after they go back.
They played six games with the Heat last year, and a summer of training will make them more progress.
Before the end of Media Day, the 76ers training camp continued.
Daily personal training, communication and results-based confrontation.
Cousins was tortured and killed with the Black Team every day. Although he was regarded as Moses Malone, who belonged to Weisha, he had already shown the attributes of a weak team's cancer in the team competition.
He is very strong, but he can't help his teammates. He can only strengthen himself and his influence cannot radiate to the entire audience.
Compared with the "Prophet" who once brought a mediocre team of Rockets to an upset defeat of the Lakers, the gap is more than one level.
Cousins knows everything, but he doesn't know how to combine the things he knows into an appropriate system.
The problem of trying to play one-stop counterattack by grabbing the defensive rebound can never be changed, and there is still a growing momentum.
Finally, Wei Xia decided to talk to him.
Wei Xia's words made Cousins deeply realize his mistake, but he didn't know how to correct it.
"Is the first thing you do to get a defensive rebound in your eyes is to fight back with the ball?" Wei Xia asked angrily.
Cousins asked back: "Isn't it? If I counterattack the defender, I will fight back. Wouldn't it be counterattack? Moreover, if I dribble the ball and wait for me to rush to the frontcourt, I can use my size advantage to rush around like LeBron."
When he was a student, Cousins was said to be poor in his studies because he was impatient.
Wei Xia felt increasingly that the school itself was impatient. They did not have the patience to find out from an impatient child that he had many advantages in addition to the shortcomings of impatientness. Cousins had many advantages... Well... Well... For example, wasn't his debate ability born for the debate team?
What a great child, why should I have such a big physique and be a barrage team to pirate my opponent to death? I have to play basketball to pirate me off?
Cousins heard Wei Xia screaming in a muffled voice similar to a wild dog.
"Wish, what's wrong with you?" Cousins asked.
Tolerate him... Well, continue to tolerate him...
He called Hayward and took a ball and handed it to him: "Ashen, shoot a basket ball, don't shoot it, and make a fast attack immediately after the shot."
"Now?"
"yes."
"Get on fast attack like a game?"
"right."
Ask clearly what should be asked, and don’t ask what should not be asked. Hayward took action and made a fuss.
Wei Xia jumped up in front of Cousins and grabbed the rebound, but kept holding the ball over his head with both hands, turned around and threw it out from his head.
Hayward, who had run over half the game, caught the pass, and he did not continue to move forward, but came back under Wei Xia's instructions.
"Will you not be more efficient and labor-saving than if you hold the ball and counterattack yourself?"
"I know what you want to say. God does not have your body shape advantage, but what is the most important thing in counterattack?"
“What is it!?”
Wei Xia was clearly asking questions, but her terrible aura made Cousins mute. She couldn't say a word, so she only dared to ask in a low voice: "What is it?"
"Three points, counterattack is to take advantage of the opponent's defensive formation to score quickly; counterattack is to improve the rhythm of the game, so the important thing is to be fast, not steady; counterattack is to create opportunities for more and less to play. If you grab the defensive rebound and don't care about others' dribbling on your own, how fast can you be? You are definitely not as fast as the defender, and you cannot improve the rhythm of the game. The most important thing is that when you dribble in the frontcourt, the opponent's defensive formation has been almost arranged, so you can only use your body to attack!" Wei Xia's tone was very heavy, "Although you can maintain efficient counterattacks with your body, it invisibly slows down the rhythm and lets others follow you to do unnecessary retracement. The ball is always in your hands. We can't play tactics, so the rhythm will be mastered by the opponent sooner or later."
"if..."
Hayward saw Wei Xia's gesture and took action again.
By hitting the iron, Wei Xia grabbed the defensive rebound and another classic long pass on both hands.
"If you can do this, I'm sure we will be the most efficient team in the league in counterattack." Wei Xia released a look of high hopes for Cousins, "Can you do it?"
Cousins is not a stupid person. Wei Xia demonstrated several times and saw clearly: "Is this a way to train long passes with both hands?"
"Yes."
"It looks really good, who came up with it?"
"Wes Unseld."
"who?"
It is understandable that Cousins didn't know Antheld, and if he hadn't had the experience of the old time, Wei Xia wouldn't have known him.
When Wei Xia was playing against Unselder in the arena, he watched him train his passing accuracy with his own eyes. He may be the best person in history to pass long with both hands.
Larry Bird's one-handed long pass is free and easy to watch, but not many people can grasp the standards.
In comparison, long passes from the head with both hands are more stable and faster.
And Unseld is the founder of this. In that era when many masters emerged, he grabbed the backcourt rebound and threw out the famous "bullet pass", which was a nightmare for many teams.
Originally, he was rushing for the frontcourt rebound, but suddenly Unseld jumped to grab the rebound and threw it. "Pearl" Monroe had already arrived at the frontcourt. He had a better luck and could entangle Monroe, but in the end he would basically be stopped by him and turned to a layup.
Cousins is not a stubborn person who cannot be taught.
Wei Xia had a good talk with him, and then, from that day on, every time the training ended, Cousins would ask Hayward to practice long passes with rookie Robertson.
The training session was basically: Hayward shot, Robertson quickly stepped down, and Cousins grabbed the rebound and passed the long pass.
The most painful thing is of course Robertson, but being able to be noticed by the big guys in the team is also his "blessing".
Wright didn't know what magic Wei Xia had used, but from that day on, Cousins no longer played the center and fought back with one-stop.
He suddenly stopped wandering, but instead made the confrontation less fun.
After the training camp, the 76ers returned to Philadelphia, and Wright gave everyone a day and a half off.
The holiday ends, and then the regular season, with the game close and there is not much time to spare.
Wei Xia did not forget what he said on Media Day.
Have to change a hairstyle.
But not at the barber room, but at home.
His wife Elaine Trovis' latest interest is washing, cutting and blowing. Suddenly, Wei Xia practiced, and he couldn't ask for it.
Weisha pointed to Beckham's poster. Beckham in the poster had a wolf head. Elaine didn't expect to play so big as soon as she came up and said in embarrassment: "This hairstyle may not be suitable for you..."
Wei Xia immediately made a decision that he regretted for several months: "It's okay, do it."
