Chapter 350: [Bad team like clouds, last chance]

The Wizards management, players, and coaching staff were also shocked by the record.
Even Yang Rui could not think that the Wizards could lead, because in his view, the Wizards played badly, and the coordination was not smooth. The only effective offensive way was to run fast and fast. Several big muscle men, Hamilton, Wesley Rushing to the basket.
A good record is not the Wizards' strength at all, but most of the teams this season are too bad, and the differentiation between strength and weakness is obvious.
Mourning missed the Heat this season due to worsening kidney disease. However, his contract has not expired. His annual salary is 20.63 million US dollars to be credited to the salary cap. This can give the Heat a misfortune. There is no main center and no salary. Space signing.
The Heat's insiders started with Marek Allen and Brian Grant, who could not resist the Wizards' strong attack and lost 65 to 107.
The 76ers have improved their offense, the inside defense is equally bad, and Derrick Coleman missed due to injury.
This time Van Horn was only scored 11 points by Marshall and Wallace defense. Iverson's shooting rate was not high. The 76ers lost 100 to 106. The start was only 5 wins and 5 losses.
Yang Rui analyzed the situation of each team and found that there are not many strong teams. The top four in the east are the Wizards, Nets, Bulls and Pistons.
It was followed by Grant Hill's recovery from the Knicks, 6 wins and 4 losses. Hill averaged 32 minutes per game this season, averaging 16.3 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4 assists. The Knicks' doctors seem to be better than the Magic.
On the question of whether to reuse Yao Ming, the Knicks had internal disagreements. If Yao Ming is used, the best way is to trade Ben Wallace in exchange for an excellent power forward, but there are a few people in management who like Big Ben. This is the star they cultivated. Larry Brown also likes this defensive center.
After signing Brad Miller's Pacers, the inside strength has been strengthened, but the status of both outside Jaylen Rose and Miller is not very stable, and the 76ers are the same, ranking 6th and 7th.
The Raptors ranked 8th in the Eastern Conference with 4 wins and 6 losses, the most disappointing. There is no axis in the inside, and the outside ball rights are not easy to allocate, and coach Rick Carlisle has become the league's number one dumpster.
The Western team also had problems.
Just started, the Kings starting point guard "white chocolate" Jason Williams broke his knee and missed 6-8 weeks. The king's ball is not so smooth.
Lakers O'Neill is in the recovery period of surgery, the start is even more messy, ranking outside the playoffs.
The No. 1 team in the West is the Mavericks, Jordan's most infamous team, because the core of both inside and outside is white, Nowitzki and Nash, Jordan feels that there is no way to compare with the local "black and hard".
After analyzing the situation, Yang Rui arranged more training, hoping to speed up the running-in, he has seen the hope of the championship.
Jordan also pays attention to the situation of other teams. During the offseason, he went to Yang Rui to eat and chat, and he came to a sentence after a while. "If the Mavericks play in the final, we will definitely win."
When Jordan was going to repeat the fifth time, Yang Rui took the words as soon as he said "if". "We will definitely win the Mavericks in the final."
"Yes."
Jordan's self-confidence is restored. This buddy often lacks self-confidence and lack of self-confidence in life. When he first came back, he had the confidence to take the Bulls to win the championship just after he left the baseball field. He also made the idea public in an interview with the radio.
Yang Rui smiled and said, "What is it? The regular season hasn't played half yet. Our team's cooperation is far from perfect. Don't be too optimistic. And I think the Lakers are more likely to reach the finals."
The Lakers without O'Neal really have no climate, 3 wins and 8 losses.
In the last game of the Lakers against the Rockets, the Staples Center has become empty before the end of the game. The 18997 fans who came to watch the game walked two thirds, and the remaining one third Boasting the Lakers vigorously, they have lost five straight.
In the three finals, the Raptors won the Cup at the Staples Center twice. The popularity of the Lakers is far less than Yang Rui’s previous life. The 2002-2003 season, which should have been their four consecutive championship season, is now nearing reconstruction. .
Without O'Neal, the team's record fell from the first in the Western Conference last season to the eleventh, but the Nuggets, Grizzlies and Clippers, this is the Lakers' worst start in 36 years.
"Men" Phil Jackson's trust in the team is declining. This is his first five-game losing streak since coaching the Lakers in 1999. He began to wonder if it was a serious mistake to make O'Neal's major surgery? Will O'Neal come back to the playoffs?
In addition to O'Neill, Mark Madson and Devin George also made the injury list. Substitute center Sommera Samak was suspended for 5 games due to a failed steroid test. Jackson can only use 10 people.
After losing, Kobe sprayed O'Neal at the press conference. "I feel very angry, my anger seems to be smoking, I want to kick a guy's ass, of course, you know who he is, right? He made us so embarrassed."
Everyone knows that Kobe is talking about O’Neal, but people don’t blame O’Neal because he has a very bad toe injury and played with an injury last season.
Experts would only blame Kobe for being too wasteful. When O'Neal was there, the Lakers were the champion contenders. Without O'Neill, he went straight to the lottery. Kobe's ability to lead the team was obvious. Fans didn't look forward, only to wait for O'Neal's toes to recover to save the team from the abyss.
O'Neill vowed to his teammates: "In real life, we will soon be able to cheer up, and now, we are just experiencing a terrible bad nightmare."
O'Neill is actually a bit bleak. As long as his team's record improves significantly after his comeback, the Lakers management will naturally see his importance. In the summer, he has a great chance of getting a top salary renewal. The requirement to change partners may also be met.
O'Neill feels that as long as he recovers his health, whether it is first or eighth in the regular season, there is little difference. It's definitely the opponents who are uncomfortable in the playoffs. No one wants to meet the Lakers in the first round.
Yang Rui and Jordan analyzed the situation of the Lakers ~EbookFREE.me~ optimistic about the Lakers with O'Neal, Jordan was not so optimistic immediately. If O'Neill can really return to his peak after surgery, he can rule the basket. Even with a toe injury, O'Neal was still the league's first center last season.
"Then you said, how can we win the championship?" Jordan asked.
"Exercise outside tactics and make three-point long shots. We can't always rely on a few people to attack the basket. Our style of play has won against teams with poor inside defense, but has entered the playoffs, except for the poor inside of the piston. The Knicks, Bulls, and Nets all have meat shields and quick-change players. Moreover, although our style of play is passionate, the players are easily injured, and if someone is seriously injured, it will be troublesome."
"how do you want to do it?"
"Rotation, limit players' playing time, ensure their health, run more tactics, reduce strong offenses, so our regular season record may decline, but it is good for the playoffs. Can you accept it?" Yang Rui explained.
Jordan was silent for a moment. He was content in the playoffs in the summer. Now he has to watch the championship. What is unacceptable?
"You do it, the playoffs are more important. If I don't retire, the old man in New York may not agree, this is my last chance."
