Chapter 137: [The fun of team building]

　　 On the 23rd, the Raptors lost to the Pistons 90 to 115 away, and the winning streak was ended.
　　 is Jordan's successor, Carter against Hill, showing some gaps. As soon as the Raptors were withdrawn from the basket, the defensive weaknesses became apparent.
　　Whether facing Hill or Stackhouse, Carter struggled defensively. The Pistons are highly mobile and rely on the swingman to win the game.
　　 Other teams started to study the Raptors, and it was not easy to win the ball with a simple fast attack. The opponent accelerated the defense speed and reduced their efficiency, and then continued to grind the position. Young players are prone to impatience.
On the 24th, the Raptors lost to the Pacers back to back, 104 to 105.
　　 1 minute before the end of the game they also led by 3 points. The way of reversing made the whole team feel stumped. Jaylen Rose broke Carter foul and hit two key free throws. After that, Billups didn't make a three-pointer and failed.
　　Yang Rui is very depressed, but basketball is like this. No matter the player or coach, he has also experienced the lore in his career, and more than once.
　　 Billups is not a big heart right now. New players dare to take shots at the last moment, but they mostly play iron.
　　Yang Rui mainly defended against Miller and gave Rose to Carter. He failed to complete the task well. Carter, McGrady, and O'Neal all love to jump. Yang Rui can't change them. It's pure young.
Rose has risen from this season. Yang Rui knows his life trajectory, and there will be two years later. People say that the Pacers are Ross’ team. He was selected to the All-Star and led the team with Miller to score. The finals, lost to the Lakers.
　　 Of course, even if there is a promising swingman, Yang Rui will not ask the management to come. The Raptors is too crowded, and the three-person rotation is enough.
　　Yang Rui knows the weakness of the "Raptors Track and Field Team", unstable shooting, poor shooting choices, but because of the suspension, this group of people has a short run-in time and can only rely on this as a magic weapon to win. Because of his slow speed, Miller is an edgeman in the team.
　　Teachers Thibodeau and Smiley both proposed to increase training and practice positional offensive tactics. Yang Rui did not agree after considering it. The schedule is too tight, and there are three back-to-back games in the back. There is more training, and in case of injury, it is not worth the loss.
　　 De Treff taught several rookies inside the team, Yang Rui also threw out the "Princeton" concept at the meeting, but the position battle players still can't play tacit understanding, it takes time.
　　After a day off, the Raptors will face the Timberwolves at home. Before that, the management must first solve an internal problem. John Wallace officially submitted a transaction application to the management.
Glenn Groward called Yang Rui and asked, "Jerry, now John Wallace is not happy with his playing time. He performed well last season. Can you communicate with him and advise him to stay, And give him more opportunities to perform?"
　　 Yang Rui thought for a while and replied: "He talked to me in private and said that he wants more performance opportunities in the contract year. I think that will affect the team's record and his help for the team is really limited."
　　Glen said: "Last season, he averaged 14 points per game and his physical fitness is excellent. Is it a pity to let go?"
Yang Rui smiled: "He joined the NBA after four years of college. He was born in February 1974. He is now 25 years old. This age will not increase significantly unless he works hard. I let him practice three points. He I don’t want to practice, I just want to play with impact. That kind of play is easy to be injured. The quality of the injury is not as good as before. It is almost time to retire. He wants to leave, maybe trade."
　　 Glenn smiled bitterly; "Shrinking season, all teams value immediate combat strength, it is difficult to trade him back to useful people. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Can I switch to a potential newcomer, do you still remember the Rashad Lewis I told you? The little green house fell to the second round, the one selected by the supersonics, he couldn't hit the ball at supersonic speed, take Wallace will definitely get it in exchange."
　　 When the free market just opened, Glenn and the Supersonic Gap passed. At that time, they wanted to trade the future second-round draft pick with the insider John Thomas. They were rejected by the Supersonics.
　　 The supersonic management is trying to train Lewis. It also thinks he has potential. Now Lewis can't play it. The Raptors have added chips. The supersonics may not continue to hold on.
　　Glen asked: "Do you know that he can't get the ball and he has to be replaced? Is that useful?"
"It may be useless to put it at supersonic speed. When the Raptors come, I will give him the direction of training. He was born in August 79, and is now less than 20 years old. The confrontation is normal and the potential is not comparable to Wallace. "
　　 "Do you really like him so much?"
"of course."
　　 "OK, I contacted Supersonic. You gave Wallace more playing time in these two games, helped him brush the data, and increased the value of the transaction. I strive to make Supersonic another person." Glenn agreed.
　　 "I'm waiting for your good news."
　　If Yang Rui proposed this change in the summer, Glenn would definitely not agree and would not need to have a meeting. Now he has almost superstitious confidence in Yang Rui, and several newcomers on the team have played well.
　　Lewis is currently averaging 2 points and 1 rebound per game at a supersonic speed. His field goal percentage is 36.5%. He hasn't scored a three-pointer yet. It seems that he will be cut at any time. However, before joining the Raptors, O'Neal was also a marginal person with no data~EbookFREE.me~ Both have a young age and entered the NBA early.
　　Glen said the situation, the management all supported Yang Rui, the Raptors now 7 wins and 3 losses, the results greatly exceeded expectations, from the team to the present, the Raptors have never won more than half.
　　With Carter, John Wallace could not be a starting small forward. There are O'Neal and Detrev, who are also difficult to start in the 4th position, the position is too awkward. The longer the delay, the worse his data will be and the smaller the transaction value will be.
　　Yang Rui has been thinking about Lewis. In his previous life, Lewis was selected as an All-Star twice. He is selfless and can play No. 3 and No. 4 positions. He is 208 cm tall and weighs 100 kg. Leaving aside that Magic Billion trash contract, Lewis's body and technology are similar to future super scorer Durant.
　　 Lewis is like a weakened version of Durant. The supersonics will be selected in the 2007 list of Durant, and there are also reasons to taste the sweetness in Lewis.
　　 This year, the Raptors can exchange Lewis for almost no cost. It will be difficult to pick up leaks next season. He will integrate into the team and become an important rotation member.
　　As long as Lewis is here, and there are many potential newcomers in the Raptors, as long as two years of practice, at least an excellent role player, Yang Rui feels that if he does not win the championship, he is indeed a rebirth. Anyone who wants to be a coach is also a super team.
　　He is obsessed with being a basketball coach, rather than starting a company to make money by copying ideas, largely because of the fun of team building.
　　 In his previous life, these stars couldn't even get together. Now even if this lineup is not at the peak, it will make him excited for a long time, and there is a thrill of playing basketball games.
　　 In the next game, the Timberwolves have 8 wins and 3 losses and are powerful. How to help John Wallace play, Yang Rui has to waste some thoughts.
