After a pause, Tang Tian replaced Booker with Gordon.
Tang Tian's attention was on the field, and Rogers on the side was encouraging Booker with words.
Compared with Booker, Gordon is much richer in experience.
This debut, I received a pass from Deron. Although his shooting speed is not as fast as Booker, but he has a better sense of rhythm. He faked a shot and flew Durant, then shot another three.
Although the ball missed a bit of luck, but successfully attracted the Thunder's defense, Yi Jianlian rushed to grab the frontcourt rebound, making up a rebound caused by Ibaka's foul.
Two free throws, the Nets finally broke this scoring shortage.
Back on the offensive end, Westbrook and Tucker played a pick-and-roll and faced Gordon.
Gordon, like Booker, has a poor wingspan, with a 2.06-meter wingspan only 2 cm longer than Booker.
After Westbrook confronted, the change of direction accelerated suddenly.
However, Gordon is much more experienced, knowing his disadvantages, taking a big step back in advance, and his traverse speed is much faster than Booker, blocking Westbrook's way.
Westbrook changed his direction to force, Gordon countered, he looked smaller than Booker, but the confrontation was better than Booker, Westbrook did not take any advantage.
Eventually Westbrook's rim shot interfered with the descent and Jokic jumped up and grabbed a defensive rebound.
Deron made a fast break, rushed to the frontcourt, attracted the defense, and then looked back to see Gordon who followed up, throwing the ball out.
Gordon made a three-pointer.
"Oh!"
This time he seized the opportunity and the three-pointer hit the net.
The Nets paused to play the Thunder 4-0.
With more experience and better defense, Gordon has shown a much better ability on the court than Booker.
Tang Tian looked back at Booker and found that the latter's eyes were a little lost.
From 103 to 113, the Nets finally lost to their opponents by 10 points at home. After Gordon raised the starting lineup, the bench firepower dropped significantly, while the Thunder's substitutes Middleton and Adams performed well. Very dazzling.
Booker suffered his first trough in his rookie season, playing only about 15 minutes, hitting 2 of 6 shots and scoring 5 points and 1 assist.
After the game, Tang Tian talked to Booker, mainly for encouragement.
Although Gordon's ability is better than Booker, but if the Nets want to go further in the playoffs, Booker's play is very important.
After the game with the Thunder, the Nets flew to Portland to challenge the Trail Blazers.
The youth army has completed a new round of reconstruction and shuffling. The former Roy, Aldridge, and even Batum, Matthews are no longer on the team, and now Lillard and McCollum are headed by double guns.
It is worth mentioning that Pralim's brother, Mason Pralim, who was traded to the Trail Blazers by Tang Tian, ​​has become the starting center.
Facing Pralim, Jokic played very well, scoring 26 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists in the quasi-triple doubles, and hit the best game of the season.
Under his leadership, the Nets scored in double figures and overturned opponents 116-108 away.
But Booker's performance did not pick up.
Stevens's gameplay gave the Blazers coach Stotts a lot of reference significance. Lillard and McClum kept greeting Booker in the opening shots. As a result, Booker played no three. He made 2 fouls in minutes. In the end, he only played 10 minutes, 1 of 4 shots, 3 points and 1 assist, and 3 fouls.
Not only these two games, in the following games, all opponents in the opening stage grabbed the weakness of Booker's defense and played.
Booker's data also fluctuated greatly, 7 points and 2 assists, 4 points and 1 assist, 17 points and 3 assists, 6 points and 2 assists, 2 points and 1 assist ...
In 10 games, in addition to playing magic because his opponent did not have a strong assault point on the outside line, his performance warmed up, the other few games, regardless of performance, it is difficult to guarantee playing time.
Rogers' suggestions helped Booker build a strong self-confidence at the beginning of the season, but also put him in the spotlight in advance. His defensive problems were directly amplified into defensive black holes, which were targeted by opponents.
The higher you hold it, the more painful this fall.
In other words, Booker encountered his rookie wall early and was thicker than other rookies.
Tang Tian also has a headache.
Booker's weaknesses are all kinds of bruises, such as short arms, this kind of physical bruise cannot be changed, and his traverse speed is really slow. Like Harden, he is also bruised.
Weight loss may increase his traverse speed, but the confrontation will definitely fall. By then, people will be sitting and playing in a low position, and the defensive effect will not be too good.
This is why Harden in the previous life was often taken one step outside, but did not lose weight.
When there is no talent in some aspects, you have to make a choice.
In contrast, Gordon's talent is much better. He is also strong and short-armed, but his traverse speed is fast, which is why he was so optimistic.
But Booker is not Gordon. The reality is that there are two options in front of him. Either withdraw Booker from the start and let him gradually start from the bench. Or you can directly exchange him for the traverse speed and let him Defense can be raised to an average level.
The former is gradual and the latter is done overnight.
It is normal for the defense to fluctuate offensively. This is normal, but Booker's performance is particularly obvious, which indicates that his psychology is relatively fragile. Withdrawing the starter at this time will definitely hit him a lot.
After thinking about it, Tang Tian still decided to redeem the traverse speed.
In the last lottery, 5 honor points were drawn. In addition to the 2 honor points won by Black Eight, he originally had 7 honor points. He cut out 2 points for Oden to redeem the iron knee. He also had 5 honor points. .
Such a thick package of wealth is enough for him to splurge.
Entering into the system's heterodimensional space ~ EbookFREE.me ~ he turned to the basketball technique.
The price of basketball technology is not high, but the traverse speed is a physical talent, and the price display is 2 honor points.
2 points of honor, solving Booker's defensive problem, this is not a loss.
"Come on, my Pikachu." Tang Tian, ​​with a little naughty, exchanged for Booker's traverse speed.
Booker was eating out with a friend at the moment, and he was talking about his unlucky situation, and suddenly felt his body tremble.
A very strange feeling filled his body, and Tang Tian's figure appeared unconsciously in his mind.
Accompanying the increase in intimacy is more guilt and annoyance.
The Nets are now a strong team. Tang Tian and the coaching staff so trust him as a rookie, but his recent performance has been so bad.
He also wanted to play well, but the he was short hands, he couldn't get up!
