Chapter 118 117: Teammates are disobedient? It doesn't matter if Shay will appear(2/4)
Besides, you didn’t even make it to the playoffs last season, so you had your vacation earlier than anyone else. You’re so exhausted!
Xie Yi immediately went to find the Logo man, but Logo spread his hands:
"Don't worry about him, he will come back. What you have to do is to lead the team to train well. After all, you are the core of this team.
Of course, if you also feel tired, I can also grant you a week's leave."
Although Logo is very strict, he knows very well that stars sometimes need to be coaxed.
For people like Feizhu, you have to coax him first.
Only when he is happy will he work hard for you on the court.
In this way, on the first day he joined the team, Barkley missed a week of work and went home to recuperate.
This gave Shay a powerful start.
Xie Yi curled his lips, it seems that this year's team is indeed difficult to lead.
I don’t know what kind of challenges I will face in the coming days.
Preseason training camp began without Barkley. Although Barkley was absent, it did not affect the team's plans.
On the second day of the training camp, Carlisle, who was promoted to head coach, arranged a new project this year - 4V4 offensive and defensive training.
This is a training he made by studying Chuck Daly's training methods and combining it with the suggestions given by assistant coach Thibodeau.
In normal 5 on 5, each player has limited space to defend.
But in 4-on-4 offense and defense, everyone must move as much as possible on the defensive end and help each other take turns to cover positions.
Although the league currently does not allow zone defense, Carlisle now has players with excellent mobility.
Therefore, you can imitate the Pistons and rely on your powerful mobility to repeatedly jump across the field to create a borderline defense!
Carlisle has always wanted to do this kind of thing.
He wants to raise the intensity of the Lakers' pressing defense.
There's nothing I can do, there are so many guys on my hands, and my waist is just too strong.
Clifford Robinson, P.J. Brown, Campbell, Perkins, Green, Sprewell, McMillan and Shea
Carlisle now has a lot of defensive players with outstanding mobility, covering all positions!
Carlisle has never fought such a rich battle in his life!
The reason why he started to let everyone compete so early was to let the players get used to this defensive method as soon as possible.
Once mastered, the Lakers' defense next season will be very terrifying, and both humans and animals will take it all!
And when the defense is complete, let's watch Shai and Barkley's joint performance.
Carlisle's focus in this year's preseason training camp is on defense, because he believes that next season the Lakers will have a dog on the bench and their offense will not be bad.
With Shea and Barkley, this is enough to solve 80% of the offensive problems.
Although according to the words of new assistant coach Thibodeau: "Let them play 47.5 minutes a game and directly solve 100% of the problems on the offensive end!"
Carlisle was speechless. You are so humane. You even knew to let them rest for 0.5 minutes!
But it is true that last season, Shea and Perkins were able to average 20 points per game.
In this Yili connection, they are not allowed to take off when they are both present at the same time?
Carlisle is very confident and everyone is very serious during training.
But it was during this training that the team ran into trouble again.
As expected, Sprewell became restless.
Sprewell is like a hedgehog. Anyone who touches him will be pricked with needles.
Two days ago, Carlisle thought Sprewell was just training seriously.
But on the third day, when the madman pushed Dell Curry in the air during a layup, almost causing Curry to sprain his knee, Carlisle realized that something was wrong.
This kid is not training seriously, he is just serious!
It felt like he was holding his breath and getting angry on purpose.
As the scouting report said, Sprewell likes to fight fiercely and will bite his opponents like a mad dog, even if he is facing his teammates.
Curry stood up and complained to Sprewell, but Sprewell rushed up and pushed Curry.
Fortunately, everyone pulled away in time, so the conflict did not escalate.
If the two of them fight, the media outside will be very happy.
They are all waiting for something to happen to the Lakers.
Carlisle reminded Sprewell to pay attention to his movements.
But Sprewell didn't listen at all.
This guy always doesn't say a word, and then he goes on the field and uses all kinds of rough moves to deal with his teammates like he's been beaten to death.
No one knows when this time bomb will explode.
First it was Barkley, then Spreewell.
Xie Yi is convinced, you just want to do something for me, right?
It seems that as the leader of the team, it is time for me to take action!
So before the start of the 4V4 offense and defense on the fourth day, Shay took the initiative to find Carlisle:
"Today I faced off against that rookie."
"Sprewell?"
"right."
"Don't cause anything to happen to Shay." Carlisle felt vaguely uneasy.
"How could it be possible? He is my teammate and I can still beat him up?"
Shay is gearing up to start his own crusade to unify the team!
Today's 4V4 offensive and defensive training, the four members of Shea's first team are Shea, Perkins, Robinson and Curry.
The other team is Spurliwell, McMillan, P.J. Brown and AC. Green.
After the training started, Sprewell held the ball and prepared for singles.
Another problem he had in training was that he rarely passed the ball. No matter what Carlisle said, it was useless.
As long as the ball is in his hands every time he attacks, it basically won't come out.
In short, Carlisle can't control this person.
What Carlisle can't handle, Shay will!
Today, when Sprewell took possession of the ball past half-court, he discovered that Shea was defending him personally.
Sprewell was not intimidated by Shea, a first-defense defender last season, but was even more excited.
The madman really held his breath in his heart.
He felt that his draft ranking was too low and that he should not be worth only No. 21.
Teammate Robert Horry was picked 11th, so he must have been 12th.
Therefore, he desperately wants to prove himself.
What better way to prove your ID than to beat a star?
The madman then looked at Shay and said something shocking:
"I'm much better than you, you just joined the team earlier than me."
No one knows who gave Sprewell the courage to think he was better than the first- and second-team defenders.
Sprewell stared fiercely into Shay's eyes, like a lion staring at its prey.
But in the face of provocation, Shea suddenly put down his defensive hands: "Nabby, just pretend to beg, I can defend you even without raising my hands."
Shay could see with his naked eye that veins were popping up on Sprewell's head, and his blood pressure had gone up again.
The madman was indeed angry, and the way Shay lowered his arms was so contemptuous.
The most annoying thing for madmen now is being looked down upon.
He suddenly accelerated his breakthrough and prepared to break through!
But just as the madman took a step, Shay, whose hands were naturally drooping, suddenly slapped hard and accurately cut the basketball from the madman's hand!
Shay's current steal prediction attributes have reached the threshold of "excellent".
Coupled with the badge that increases steal response speed, it is easy for Shea to steal the ball from Sprewell.
After all, Sprewell has not yet reached his peak, and his ball-handling skills in his rookie season were still relatively immature.
Facing Shay, a defensive back who is stronger than last season, the Madman simply cannot hold the ball.
