180. Scott in crisis

The NBA 2012-2013 season, which started after more than four months, is undoubtedly a highly anticipated season. Every team is ready to try before the start of this season, including the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Especially when Wu Dawei performed such a phenomenal performance at the London Olympics this summer, people's expectations for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the new season naturally went up to the next level.

Because from the outside world, with such an unstoppable Wu Dawei, and with the current league's No. 1 center Dwight Howard in the interior, the Cleveland Cavaliers should have been almost the same, not to mention sweeping the eight deserts.

However, when the new season begins, due to injury issues, the performance of the Cleveland Cavaliers is obviously completely deviating from people's outlook and expectations for them before the season.

When the new season started for almost a month, when people once again focused on the Cleveland Cavaliers, they found that this team was no longer what people expected before the start of the season.

They did not perform even in a dominant performance, but failure has become a common occurrence for them...

Due to the absence of Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard and the injury, the Cleveland Cavaliers played fourteen games in the first month of the new season, but their total record was five wins and nine losses!

While such a sluggish performance made people feel extremely surprised by this, they would involuntarily sigh at Wu Dawei's role in the Cleveland Cavaliers.

People believe that if Wu Dawei is not absent due to injury, the Cleveland Cavaliers will not encounter such a huge Waterloo!

Looking at the current situation of the Cleveland Cavaliers, when you think of the Chinese men's basketball team that played well in the men's basketball game this summer, and the performance of the Chinese men's basketball team in the Olympic finals after Wu Dawei is gone, it will surprise people even more at the influence of Wu Dawei in a basketball game!

It was as if people now believed that as long as Wu Dawei was present, the Cleveland Cavaliers would never have achieved such a bad record. At that time, people also believed that if Wu Dawei was not absent due to injury in the Olympic final, then even if the Chinese men's basketball team lost, it would never have been possible that they would have lost so ugly.

What's more, people thought at that time that if Wu Dawei could play for the team in the final of that Olympic Games, then the Chinese men's basketball team might have the capital to compete with the American Dream Team!

So when I learned that Wu Dawei would be missing the Olympic finals, so many people felt sorry for this!

Wu Dawei used his performance at the Olympics to make people feel his power and unparalleled ability one after another!

These are the deepest impressions left by Wu Dawei on people, so when the Cleveland Cavaliers scored a 5-9 start at the beginning of the new season, people kept thinking about Wu Dawei and then sighed at his ability.

"When the Cleveland Cavaliers held their championship parade at the end of June, they would never have expected that four months later, they had just won the first championship trophy in team history, and they would have suffered such a huge blow at the beginning of the new season! Large-scale injuries came, making the Cleveland Cavaliers unable to defend! But obviously this is not the worst thing, and the worse thing is still to come. After the new season begins, the defending champions of the Cleveland Cavaliers only achieved a record of 5 wins and 9 losses a month after the start of the game! Such a record can only make them ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference in the current Eastern Conference, and there is a danger of falling from eighth to ninth at any time!"

"All this is extremely surprising. For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they need to get rid of such a mud pond as soon as possible. Perhaps in everyone's opinion, the best way for the Cleveland Cavaliers to get rid of such a dilemma is to let Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard return to the team soon!"

"But obviously, the Cleveland Cavaliers will never do this. They will not risk Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard being injured again to get them back to the team early. So, for the team's head coach Byron Scott, the situation he faces in the next more than a month is still very difficult!"

At this time, Brian Windhorst, a reporter from the Cleveland City Businessman, published a report on the recent situation of the Cleveland Cavaliers. He vaguely mentioned the current difficulties the team is facing and the situation that cannot be separated from Wu Dawei.

Fortunately, Brian Windhorst, as a reporter for the Cleveland Cavaliers, may have a good relationship with the team's head coach Byron Scott, so he did not take any precautions against Byron Scott at this time.

However, this cannot slow down the pressure on Byron Scott, the team's head coach at this time. Because the current record of the Cleveland Cavaliers, as the defending champion, is indeed very terrible, and the deviation from what people imagined before the start of the season is indeed too great. So when the new season begins almost a month, it is inevitable that some people's patience will be worn out!

After all, Byron Scott has not been in Cleveland for a long time. He came to Cleveland around the same summer as Wu Dawei. So although Byron Scott led the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the first championship trophy in team history, fans' feelings for him will not be as deep as they imagined!

So Byron Scott's turnaround began to happen slowly, which was not something that made people feel too strange. It just happened occasionally from the beginning, and it gradually became frequent.

Especially in home games, since the team is always at a disadvantage, the patience of Cleveland fans is indirectly worn away.

Byron Scott also got confused when facing the boo to gradually getting used to it. However, although he gradually adapted to the boo, he no longer looked very panicked like he had just encountered the boo.

However, Byron Scott's calm external performance cannot cover up his uneasiness. As a team head coach who has coached for more than ten years, if the current Cleveland Cavaliers are not injured, it will undoubtedly become the best team that Byron Scott has encountered in his coaching career.

Moreover, Wu Dawei, the most popular core player in the team, promoted himself. This feeling made Byron Scott very fulfilled, so perhaps Cleveland fans have not had a deep relationship with Byron Scott, but Byron Scott's feelings for the current Cleveland Cavaliers are extraordinary.

He didn't want to be fired by the team because after leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the first championship trophy in team history last season, Byron Scott also hopes to lead the team to more championship trophys!

He hopes to lead a team to create a basketball dynasty, not just flashing like a meteor, so he will definitely not be willing to be fired by the team like this.

This is also what makes him feel anxious, because without Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard, now he must change the team's current situation of winning less and losing more as soon as possible is indeed a relatively difficult thing.

However, although the situation was very difficult, Byron Scott also understood that this was already a hot topic. If he still allowed the team to continue with a situation of winning less and losing more, then he would not wait for Wu Dawei and Dwight Howard to come back and would be directly swept out by the team.

Although the team general manager Dan Ferry is still smiling at him, maybe he will turn against him in the next second. Because he performed poorly in the transfer market this summer, Dan Ferry is now feeling a little difficult to protect himself, so if he can transfer hatred at this time, then he will definitely do it without hesitation!

Nowadays, the highly criticized head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Byron Scott, is obviously the best target for the transfer of hatred. So although Dan Ferry still respects Byron Scott very much, Scott understands that as long as there is unfavorable news, the first one who is unlucky will definitely be himself, and the person who stabs himself in the back will be the general manager of the team.

This is not to say that Dan Ferry is a bad person, and he will be punished by heaven and earth. In such a difficult situation, this is also human nature.

No one will care about what the defending champion brought such a result. No one will care about it because both core players of the team are absent due to injuries. People will only see bad results that are very dissatisfied and dazzling!

So Byron Scott can be said to be the most troubled person in Cleveland City now. Originally, this new season should have been his ideal, but now it has become a turning point in his coaching career...

This is not an ordinary annoying thing! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
