Chapter 305 New Era

Author: Different Sparks

The previous NBA has always been an era of big balls, using forwards and guards to continuously attack the opponent's inside, and in this process many inside stars were created. This era paid special attention to half-court offense, but now the Warriors have shown this season

The tactics that came out shocked many people, and some even felt that their understanding of basketball had been subverted. The speed of offense and defense transitions, the ultra-long three-pointers, and the small lineup on the court.

All this has subverted many people's understanding of basketball.

Even at the beginning, Cole was questioned. Many NBA celebrities believed that he was blaspheming basketball.

But this season's Warriors have silenced all doubts with their record.

And if Warriors basketball is subversive, then the Timberwolves are even more perverted.

Using a center as the core of offense and defense is common in the big ball era, but I have never seen a center with a center standing outside the three-point line as the core of offense and defense.

Then players at centers and power forwards will give you one or three points at every turn.

It can be said that this game between the Timberwolves and the Pacers made almost all the head coaches in the league really put the Timberwolves into their research plans. All the Timberwolves' game videos in the past two seasons have been watched over and over by these people.

, some even looked at it frame by frame. Every time they attacked on the field, every Timberwolves player's movement and every passing route were carefully studied.

"Chen, do you think three-pointers will become something that all teams will value?" After the day's training, Dazhuang was discussing some interesting things in the league with several people on the coaching team. D'Antoni brought the topic to the present.

It is a hotly discussed topic in many media.

"Of course, this is a trend and no one can stop it, unless you are willing to be eliminated."

"But if everyone shoots three-pointers outside, then the game will not be pretty. Will the league allow it?"

"It doesn't matter whether the league allows it or not. After all, it is something within the scope of the rules. But I don't think it will affect the enjoyment of the game. After all, three-pointers are guaranteed by shooting percentage. No one can say that he can guarantee every

The shooting percentage in every game will be very high. Once your shooting percentage drops, then this

What do you do at this time, and haven't you discovered that once you want to implement a three-point tactic, you must speed up your passing speed and the tactical arrangement of running without the ball. Only when all your people are moving,

Only then can you find more holes in the opponent's defense, and open three-pointers will always have the highest shooting percentage."

"Chen, I might have to leave."

"Oh, let's go, what? You want to leave? Who invited you?" The conversation was originally going well, but D'Antoni's next words suddenly made Da Zhuang jump up.

It's not that he can't bear to part with it, but he's a little surprised. Besides, he hasn't heard of any team's head coach being fired.

"Larry Bird called me, but I'm still thinking about it, so I want to hear your opinion."

Damn it, D'Antoni's words made the big guy burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

It's over. That guy Vogel's position is really no longer guaranteed. This guy won't hate me for this.

Smith and others on the side also looked at the two people in stunned silence.

"I know your relationship with Frank, and it is precisely because of this that I want to think about it. The other is the configuration of the Pacers' current team lineup. To be honest, I am not optimistic about it, so if I accept it, I must do it at the trade deadline.

Recently, otherwise there will be nothing accomplished this season."

"I'll go, you fucking want to hear my opinion? Who do you want to take with you?"

After hearing what D'Antoni said, Da Zhuang immediately understood what the other party meant.

That old guy Larry Bird is really good at scheming. He made it clear that he wanted to poach the Timberwolves, and he did this trick just because he knew it wouldn't work.

"Mike, I can't guarantee you this. You all know my team-building opportunities. Whether it's my personal relationship with you or with Frank, if it affects my plan, I will never

I hope you understand that I may agree to it, and to be honest, if it is the Pacers, to be honest, they currently have nothing that I am interested in, which is why I did not agree to Frank."

Da Zhuang directly blocked the road first. If you want to leave, it's fine. I'll see you off. But if you want to take people away, that's impossible.

Hearing Chen Dazhuang's words, D'Antoni couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He understood what Da Zhuang said, but he still wanted to work hard for future coaching.

"Chen, the Timberwolves don't need so many inside players. Oden or Nikola are enough alone. Either of them can have an advantage in the league if paired with Yi or Henry. Don't you think this is a waste?"

"So, Mike, what I want to tell you is that whether it is Greg or Nicola, I will not choose to trade, and are you sure you want to talk to me about this now? Do you think you want to talk to me about this now?

Is it suitable? I think you should consider whether you want to go to the Pacers first, and then let the Pacers management

Contact us, this is a normal process, and let me give you a piece of advice, I don’t object to you coaching other teams, not just you, I don’t object to all of you, but to be honest, the Pacers really don’t

For you, if you want to go, you'd better talk to Larry Bird about what are your powers on the team?"

Da Zhuang's words also made D'Antoni realize that it is not appropriate to talk about this now. After all, the identity has not been confirmed. Fortunately, this belongs to D'Antoni. If other Da Zhuang had already scolded him.

However, what happened next developed so fast that even Da Zhuang did not expect it.

The day after D'Antoni told Tang Tian, ​​the Pacers held a press conference and directly announced that Frank Vogel would no longer serve as the team's head coach. This news immediately detonated the entire United States.

Unexpectedly, only nearly one-third of the regular season was completed, and Vogel became the first head coach to be fired this season.

Then on December 28, the Pacers held another press conference to announce the new head coach. When reporters at the scene saw D'Antoni's figure, they were also in an uproar.

To be honest, judging from the series of actions of the pedestrians, if this was not premeditated, no one would believe it.

Although it happened very suddenly, it was obvious that the Pacers had been preparing for this for a long time. Everyone knew that D'Antoni had been an assistant coach with the Timberwolves before.
