From New York to Indianapolis.
This distance is not too close, of course it is not as far as imagined.
Indiana is southeast of New York, separated from Pennsylvania and Ohio, about 1,200 kilometers away.
Xu Xuan was on a United Airlines flight. He checked the timetable, and it would take about two and a half hours if there were no accidents.
Xu Xuan seized the time to preview his homework on the plane. This transaction happened too suddenly, and he never thought that he would be traded to the Pacers, so the pre-class preview time was much less...
New York is a team in the Eastern Atlantic Division, and the Pacers are a team in the Eastern Central Division. The two teams have not played a game yet, so Xu Xuan is not too familiar with it.
Team owner...
executive CEO......
General manager......
Head coach...
There is not much time, Xu Xuan can only first recognize these senior managers first.
I heard that the Pacers’ boss is not in charge, so the power of the team is basically in the hands of CEO Larry Bird.
Xu Xuan drew a circle on his head.
This is the key player of the Pacers!
Next is their general manager Kevin Pritchard, who also takes care of things, at least much more than the Knicks’ Mills.
Larry Bird does not have the strong desire to control as the old Zen master, he is still willing to let go of some "little things" for the people below.
And head coach Frank Vogel...
Xu Xuan's pen fell heavily.
Maybe he is not in the team's position as Larry Birdgow, but there is no doubt that he will be the person Xu Xuan will deal with the most next!
Xu Xuan briefly looked at his life, his life is very inspirational, he has never played in the NBA, it can be said that he has become a head coach all the way from a small person.
"Yeah, he still cuts videos?"
Xu Xuan saw his introduction. Before that, he had been the video coordinator under Boston Celtics coach Rick Pitino, and he had been there for five years...
Xu Xuan took a breath, not easy!
was promoted to assistant coach after five years...Well, maybe the video was cut better and promoted...
After leaving the Celtics, he went to Philadelphia and worked as an assistant coach for a while.
It may be that after discovering that being an assistant coach is really hopeless, he switched to scouting again, and spent two years as a scout for the Los Angeles Lakers and Washington Wizards...
Uh, maybe he found that the scout is not as good as the assistant coach, so he came to the Pacers again and started his own business. It was not until January 30, 2011 that Vogel was appointed after O'Brien was fired. Interim head coach of the Indiana Pacers.
As for the style...
tough?
Defense?
Well, the teams he coaches are very tough defensively!
He is also very good at defensive skills and tactics.
In the previous three seasons, the Pacers all died in the hands of the Miami Heat led by James, and two of them were in the Eastern Conference Finals!
In the 12-13 season, it was a tiebreaker with the Heat all the way!
James believes that the only reason Vogel's team did not make it to the Finals is that they met three consecutive Heat with Wade, Bosh and himself.
The defensive training is a master, and offensive...seems to be good at using the inside?
Like Roy Hibbert, David West, etc...
There are not many outside skills and tactics, most of them are in a stocking state...
From the heart, this news is not so good...
My family knows what's going on in my family, you can let Xu Xuan attack, but the defense is really messed up.
And would a defensive coach like Vogel like himself?
It seems unlikely...
Xu Xuan touched his nose, his future is uncertain. This is...
At this time at Xu Xuan's destination, Pacers coach Frank Vogel was also a little worried with Xu Xuan's scout report in his hand.
Since Pickle was injured, the walker has struggled a bit.
On the one hand, he wants to continue his two consecutive years of brilliance in the finals, on the other hand, he is limited by his strength and lack of energy.
This kind of ambivalence once made him very tangled at the beginning of the season.
But then after a few games, he slowly stabilized, and until now... his heart is confused again.
Xu Xuan?
It’s not that he doesn’t know this rookie who is currently well-known in league history, but he never expected that he would coach this man one day. After all, he performed so well in his rookie season. In his opinion, Xu Xuan must be in Knicks He was trained vigorously...Until one day, President Larry Bird suddenly found him with a scout report and asked him: "If you were to coach this young man, what would you do? ?"
Vogel was stunned at the time. His first reaction was: I coach him? Are you kidding me?
But after he saw that Larry Bird didn't seem to be fake, and looked very serious, he immediately received the scout report...
it is true!
Larry Bird is not a targetless person. Since he has put the scout report on Xu Xuan's face, he naturally wouldn't be stupid and ask: Is this true?
Such stupid words.
But, the next question is before me.
I will coach this young man, what will I do?
This......
I do not know!
He watched Xu Xuan's scout report and game video many times and still couldn't find any clue...
If you look at D'Antoni or old Nelson~EbookFREE.me~ Xu Xuan's attributes can even be called excellent, but in the hands of a defensive coach, this attribute... can't be said Bad, but...not good!
Vogel has a headache. Xu Xuan’s main threat is on the offensive end, and what he is best at is defense... The two are not on the same channel at all.
What should I do?
The person who Larry Bird wanted to come over in person had paid such a high price, and he couldn't just do it at will.
And Vogel also appreciates Xu Xuan in his heart, but how to use it is a big problem!
It’s fine if the pickled peppers are not hurt, and Xu Xuan can form a "double dragon head" for offensive firepower on the outside line, so that the Pacers do not need to be stuck on the inside line on the offensive end, and can bloom both inside and outside...
It's also pretty good, Vogel thought for a while.
But now that pickle hurts, Xu Xuan is on the outside...Can he support it?
By the way, there is also a starting list...also a big problem!
He never thought of letting Xu Xuan play as a substitute. Even if he did, Larry Bird would probably not agree, but it’s a question of who gets down...
Too many questions!
Headache!
Irritable!
Vogel simply put down the scout report in his hand, forget it, wait for him to come, is it a mule or a horse that can’t be pulled out first?
let it go......
......
Polis is the capital of Indiana. At night, when the lights were on, Xu Xuan quietly set foot on this land.
A new journey is about to begin!
