Chapter 653 [Arrogant? The Miracle Begins? 】
The reporter brought the topic to Griffin again.
Yang Rui said: "Blake will be the core inside next season. I will arrange tactics for him. I think he will be selected as an All-Star in the new season, and the best rookie will also be in the bag."
After receiving high praise from the coach, Griffin smiled like a Japanese Shiba Inu...
If Griffin has a serious expression and is a cool big man, when he smiles, he is worthy of the nickname "Silly Finn".
Yang Rui faced reporters and gave Griffin advice. "He has to practice shooting as much as possible to increase his shooting range. Insiders who can attack in the low post are very tough, but insiders with three-point shooting range are more likely to help the team win."
Yang Rui is more optimistic about Griffin than anyone else. In his previous life, in his rookie season, Griffin could score 22.5 points, 12.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.5 blocks, shooting 5o.6% from the field, and three-pointers. He shot 29.2% from the field and made 7 three-pointers throughout the season.
Griffin can shoot now, but is inconsistent, and has the potential to get better. In the 14-15 season, Griffin transformed from a violent power forward to a handsome mid-range shooter. Mid-range shots between 16 feet and the three-point line accounted for 37.8% of the total shots, and the shooting rate also reached a very good 4o.4%.
Yang Rui believes that as long as Griffin coaches shooting, he can make great progress next season. In his previous life, Griffin failed to meet a good coach, which resulted in his training going astray.
Vinny DeNagro has been the head coach of the Clippers for three years. His on-the-spot response and player rotation have been criticized by the media, and he always allows Griffin and Paul to play freely. When his contract expires, Paul doesn't want him to stay.
In this life, because of Thibodeau's early rise, DeNagro has not yet become an NBA head coach.
In the first few seasons of his career, Griffin has always relied on talent to play. He is obviously a power forward, but his offense is based on a small forward style. He faces the frame to break through and attack, and relies on his body to squeeze away opponents, a bit like LeBron James.
If Griffin can partner with an inside man who is good at shooting, it will be no problem to play like this, but he is partnered with DeAndre Jordan, a blue-collar player who can't make free throws. This directly led to the Clippers not being able to reach the Western Conference finals after Paul arrived, because the opponent only needed to use a 122 zone defense to win half of the game. For the Clippers to be efficient inside, they must get to the basket.
What's even worse is that the Clippers have never had a decent wing defender. Caron Butler was already half-impaired when he joined, and he can only catch and shoot from the outside; Matt Barnes is no better than Butler. ;The 15-16 season is even more outrageous, Pierce can do it while walking...
Yang Rui plans to train Griffin like Yao Ming. The mid-range shot must be accurate, and at least the center and corner positions on both sides must be sure. Only one point in the middle is enough for three-pointers.
Griffin can definitely do a good job of supporting the ball. In Yang Rui's previous life, when Paul was injured, Griffin performed amazingly and scored consecutive triple-doubles.
Yang Rui never thought of taking the initiative to recruit James, just because Griffin can do what James does, but his defense is worse, it is a weakened version.
Yang Rui also evaluated others, positioning Curry as the sixth man, DeAndre Jordan can become an excellent defensive blue collar, and Korver, Novak, and Dunleavy are important three-point shooting points.
Reporters were very concerned about the derby between the Clippers and the Lakers. Yang Rui said easily: "The Lakers had better pray not to meet the Clippers in the playoffs, because I won't be polite to them."
A reporter asked in disbelief: "You mean...the Clippers can beat the Lakers this season?"
"Of course, I don't think the Lakers have the strength to compete for the championship, and the same goes for the Cavaliers. The combination of Wade, James, and Bosh is not as coordinated as the Celtics' Big Three. If they don't win the championship in the future, I feel sorry for them. .”
The reporter asked: "Where do you think the Cavaliers can reach?"
Yang Rui thought for a while and replied: "The competition in the Eastern Conference is weak. The Cavaliers should be able to easily enter the finals. If other teams do not make big trades, they can enter the finals in consecutive years, but facing the top four teams in the Western Conference, they will be able to enter the finals easily." Without an advantage, I think the Clippers can take care of the Cavaliers, no joke, I will prove it in the new season.
"
Yang Rui likes to pretend to be a stickman. In his previous life, the Heat's Big Three played very poorly in the first season and only achieved 58 wins. The Bulls won the best record with 62 wins, and Derrick Rose also won the mVp.
In this life, Rose definitely has no chance to win MVP. Noah is in the Trail Blazers, Boozer has joined the 76ers, and Tracy McGrady has joined the Pistons. He teamed up with Brand and Artest, who were in serious decline, and there was no competitiveness.
The reporter asked: "Which team do you think is the Clippers' biggest competitor?"
"For this season, there is only the Mavericks. The Spurs' small forward position has become weaker, so there is nothing to worry about. I think as long as they defeat the Mavericks, the Clippers can win the championship this season."
The reporters all felt that there was another big news to write about. Yang Rui didn't take the Cavaliers and Lakers seriously at all.
Yang Rui is not complimenting the Mavericks, but they are really strong.
Last season, the Mavericks sent Josh Howard to the Pistons for Tayshaun Prince. In the original time and space, they should have traded for Caron Butler. Unfortunately, Butler was injured in the mid-term and was reimbursed. Therefore, in the 2o1o-11 season, the Mavericks won the championship without playing in the best lineup.
Due to the butterfly effect in consecutive years, many teams have changed. The Pistons do not have Hamilton and need to strengthen their offense. Prince is strong defensively and weak offensively, which does not fit in with the rebuilding idea, so the trade was made.
The Pistons' idea is to bet that Howard can return to his peak, but this guy has obviously been smoking marijuana, otherwise the Mavericks would not trade him. The Mavericks have no shortage of scorers, but they lack wings who can defend, and Prince fits the bill. Therefore, the Mavericks were very strong last season, but narrowly lost to the Spurs.
This season, the Mavericks also introduced DeShawn Stevens, a defensive swingman who can fake the No. 2 position. Most of the time, the Mavericks play two guards, with Kidd guarding the No. 2 position, Terry and Barea. Responsible for the offense.
On the forward line, Prince and Marion share playing time. Marion can also play a guest role at the 4th position to strengthen the defense against the pick-and-roll. This kind of defense can be called "impregnable" against the outside. It can make up for Marc Gasol's slow movement and prevent the pick-and-roll. Bad shortcomings.
The Mavericks have two major offensive players inside, Nowitzki and Gasol, who can both pull out to shoot and coordinate the offense.
Although the Mavericks only have one big-name star in Nowitzki, their lineup is the deepest in the league. Yang Rui feels a lot of pressure when he sees it. It is stronger than the Mavericks team that won the championship in his previous life.
In the previous life, the Mavericks traded with the Bobcats in exchange for Tyson Chandler. The defense was better than Gasol, and the offense was not on the same level as Gasol. It's hard to say which one is stronger and which one is weaker.
Rick Carlisle is an excellent coach. He is not a "Jerry type", but his team building method and rotation are similar to Yang Rui's. He also uses a swingman formation and strives to balance offense and defense.
That night, several of the largest media outlets in North America broke the news together, and Yang Rui grabbed the headlines.
James claims to lead the Cavaliers to win 8 championships. Kobe also said that the Lakers' goal for the new season is to win the championship. Many media began to promote 23Vs24 (James did not change his nickname with the Cavaliers), but Yang Rui looked down on them and was optimistic about the Mavericks. surprise.
According to online discussions, fans are paying more attention to the Clippers because Yang Rui is too crazy.
"Jerry Young's betrayal means that he will build a city of alley-oops in the new season, beat the Lakers, and the Derby is about to begin."
"Can Chris Paul win the regular season mVp? Become a new outside superstar?"
"Jerry Young made a declaration to fight for the championship. His favorite opponent is the Mavericks. He expressed regret for the Lakers and Cavaliers."
"Is the Basketball Pope arrogant, or is he the beginning of another miracle?"
