: 1330. Money is important to the team (4/5)

"Ais, let's see if our arena has become great!" Duncan took Liu Mang to show off their brand-new arena that was expanded last season, merged last summer, and partially renovated the old arena.
"It's really great ..." Liu Mang looked at the newly built museum in the ATT Center and felt ... a little bit panicked ...
After introducing Tim Duncan, one of the two most highly-educated postgraduates among NBA players, Liu Mang learned that the area of ​​the ATT center has expanded by one-half and the function of a museum has increased.
ATT Telegraph Office was acquired by SBC Radio and Television Station and merged into ATT Radio and Telegraph Television Station. The antique appraisal program previously owned by SBC Television Station was recorded in the ATT Center.
Liu Mang looked at the Spurs Arena with more and more bright colors, feeling a panic ...
In the past, there were occasionally other tones, but now it has been completely changed to black, white and gray. In addition to the game notice and ticket price on the LED screen, the remaining votes and other information are red and yellow, the entire stadium is flooded with a large Yizhuang's sense of sight ...
With Duncan's contemptuous hint, Liu Mang knew that in September 2006, Duncan's 2.5-year academic master's degree had completed his graduation thesis, and it was only half a year before he could get his master's degree. Another NBA player appeared. The player who successfully passed the master's degree is Duncan's opponent ... Shaq O'Neal ...
The time for the two to enter the peak period is about the same, both in the late 1990s, one is the rookie is the peak, the other is fat to the peak.
O'Neill arrived in Phoenix and heard that Duncan was about to get a master's degree. He didn't want to fall behind to take a master's degree in the business administration department of the University of Phoenix.
Liu Mang followed Duncan for two hours at the ATT Center. He arrived in San Antonio in the morning and had lunch at noon. Duncan came to see Liu Mang and no other people. McGrady of the same session did n’t call and only took Liu Go to see their new arena.
Originally, Liu Mang thought that this boring man would take him to play, but actually went to the stadium.
And after shopping, Duncan drove Liu Mang back to the hotel in his pickup truck, and there was no more ...
Liu Mang felt that Duncan was too uninteresting. The whole body was full of "boring" feelings. He understood why Duncan was deceived by his wife ...
Duncan is very satisfied with taking Liu Mang to visit the new stadium. He thinks Liu Mang will be very happy because he likes this renovated stadium with simple and simple colors ...
No. 21 rookie!
Duncan got a nickname that made him feel pretty good.
This nickname sounds more unique than what the basic skills ...
……
……
Is not the same as playing other opponents.
The Lakers and Spurs, these two teams are the western team that Liu Mang thinks is the most promising to reach the finals this season.
Mavericks regular season is very fierce, but Liu Mang feels that they are likely to overpower in the regular season.
It ’s not just that tactics are restrained and the coaching ability gap is so simple. In Liu Mang ’s memory, the Mavericks played the Warriors in the first round of the 2007 Western Conference playoffs and even had no power to fight back. Nowitzki regular season MVP The performance of the level, and the performance of getting MVP, the postseason state is extremely sluggish, not only as simple as restraint, Nowitzki and Garnett play, the shooting rate is only four percentage points less than Garnett, It ’s just a few points of scoring, a few rebounds, and no hit rate of less than 40%, and it ’s not a series of outbreaks, the overall downturn, one look is too much in the regular season Too.
Therefore, the more the Mavericks are in the regular season, the less Liu Mang is concerned about how far the Mavericks can go in the playoffs.
Nowsky is not playing well, the Mavericks are no different from the Bulls without Garnett.
Relatively speaking, Duncan's Spurs, which has entered another peak mode, has Artest, which makes Liu Mang afraid, and Parker has reached its peak!
Liu Mang and the coaching staff read the related posts and news on the topic of "How to Limit Tim Duncan", which has been fired on the Internet recently, and received little effective advice on how to prevent Duncan. Basically, they are all Liu Mang Some of the methods mentioned, or just a few nonsense.
How to use the advantage of Mitaka's CIC to target Duncan and Artest's strongest internal and external defensive gate in history has given Liu Mang some inspiration ...
Although some media have always stated that Artest failed to integrate into the Spurs, as a professional Liu Mang and the Eagles coaching staff, they found that Artest did not integrate, only on the offensive end. The Spurs' current offensive tactics are very simple. There is a troika. Of course, it can be as simple as it can be. It is complicated, but it can't play the strength of the star. Artest has no ball in his hand, and the running position is average. Of course, there is no performance on the offensive end.
And Liu Mang found that the Spurs deliberately did not give Artest a sense of offensive performance, using him as an enhanced version of Bowen.
This is the idea of ​​Popovich. Maybe it is not necessary to think about how to use Artest's offensive ability. After all, Popovich has never used such a star.
But the Spurs have done a good job on the defensive end. With the league's average score rising to 97.9 points this season, the Spurs have averaged only 98.1 points per game, which will exceed the league average.
The only two teams in the league that missed 90 points, one of them is the Spurs, and the other is the Eastern Bulls.
The Spurs ranked first in the league in defensive efficiency with 87.8 points per game!
Averaged only 98.1 points per game, and can outscore more than 10 points, which means that except for the Spurs 'own offensive offense, they are difficult to lose and limit their opponents' scores too low.
Spurs opponents have only 78 shots per game, ranking first in the league to let opponents take the fewest shots! The league's average number of shots this season is 81!
So how to deal with the Spurs' defense is the focus of the Eagles coaching staff. It happens that there are thousands of netizens. There are always some who really understand the ball and come up with it. Although it is a bit strange, Liu Mang and others really think it is feasible. In-depth study, there are so few ways to try.
Anyway, this is the first time this season, the Hawks decided to give it a try. No matter the effect is good or not, you have to give it a try ...
……
November 30, the last day of the first game month, the Hawks ushered in the 17th game of the season, the last of the three consecutive players in the Southwest Division, is also the most difficult game.
After the team opened a tactical meeting in the morning, Liu Mang and his teammates came to the stadium again.
Suffering from no compatriots, this group of American guys and big white guys don't understand what the Spurs color matching means to the Chinese. Liu Mang can't find a spitting partner, I really feel a little sad ...
In the afternoon, I trained the new tactics that were negotiated by Liu Mang and Coach Kruger last night. The tactics still based on Princeton. The premise of playing Princeton is that Liu Mang is not singles, Liu Mang singles, then you ca n’t afford it. Princeton is the tactic of Larry Brown's four-man one-man wave.
But there is no hard requirement, Liu Mang feels coming, singles is the best way.
For superstars, this has always been the case, otherwise there will be no triangle attack success.
……
The Hawks are preparing for the game. The Spurs have been waiting for a long time. Popovich has been struggling with something this season.
For example, the use of Artest, Artest is in line with the role of the outside core he wants in the construction of the new system after Duncan's aging, but Duncan is at its peak, making him caught off guard.
The future Spurs system has already begun to take shape, but Duncan is too strong. What other Spurs system is playing? All the troikas are at their peak and there is nothing more effective than this.

Popovich wants to stay with Artest for a long time, but he is not willing to pay too high a salary. Now Popovich uses Artest to use it enough, that is, as a defensive enhanced version of Bowen. .
Is not unable to integrate, but does not want to give so many offensive opportunities.
The lack of media and scout expressions is due to Artest ’s lowest career average of 9 points per game.
To suppress the value of his own star, or to talk about human relations, such as Duncan and Ginobili, Parker has never lowered his salary. Parker ’s contract extension is the same as the 2000 renewal price after the end of the Duncan rookie contract. The ~ EbookFREE.me ~ all have a starting salary of more than 9 million. The difference is that Duncan's starting salary of more than 9 million was the top salary in 2000. At that time, the salary cap was only so high, and Parker's was not a top salary.
But Parker did not get the top salary.
And Ginobili was renewed in 2004 with a starting salary of 6 million. Ginobili has already had an All-Star performance in the 04-05 season, which is obviously lower than the price.
On Artest, Popovich feels like Parker, it is impossible to talk about salary cuts, then Artest must be "not worth" higher salary, the score data is a bit worse, it is definitely the best select.
A team ’s team culture is not just about the team ’s atmosphere and the human touch of the coach. It ’s also important whether the team has money or not. The Spurs ’lineup this season has a salary of only $ 59 million. It ’s not yet a luxury tax threshold, the boss. With the non-payment of taxes as an invited purpose, what can Popovich do?
Want to stay Artest, he made this decision.
Fortunately, even if Artest does n’t score, even if he is just a player like Tony Allen who does n’t know how to attack, it will have a huge effect on a team!
Any team with an extra line of the best defensive player level can be qualitatively improved.
The Hawks are making offensive adjustments against the Spurs, and the Spurs are also making defensive adjustments to the Hawks.
With Artest, the biggest difference between the Spurs is from shooting guard to power forward, and the mid-range defense is not as painful as before!
This is a great improvement for the Spurs to beat the Lakers, Mavericks, Eagles, Bulls and other excellent mid-range teams!
