Chapter 139, The Iron Prince.
Compared with the strength of last season, the Kings' strengthening level seems average, and they focus more on the future.
While they optimize the team's salary as much as possible, the Kings' management hopes that these young people will make personal progress and lay the foundation for the team's future.
The Kings' move to replace a new coach proves that the Kings management is eager to get the team back on track.
But the reality is that they have no competitiveness in the West, where the heroes have become one, and this year is another lottery season.
Xue Ding and Evans talked a few times during the joint trial.
It's considered to be a meeting.
Because Xue Ding has a bad reputation recently, Xue Ding has made more friends and fewer enemies, and the Trail Blazers and the Kings have nothing to compete with. They have always been bad teams. Xue Ding is preparing to say hello to Tyrek Evans, a newcomer who is also a 2009 class.
Before the game started, Xue Ding arrived at the Kings' half and greeted Evans with a smile.
"Terick, I'm glad to play with you again, please give me some advice."
"Xue, I won't be polite to you! Let's have a chance to be beaten by me tonight." Evans' attitude was very bad.
Xue Ding touched the dust!
Xue Ding also replied: "Well, it's all for winning. It's best if you can beat it. I don't care."
After saying that, Xue Ding went back by himself.
Xue Ding was a little unhappy.
The competition began soon.
The Trail Blazers, who were at home, started and played steadily.
Except for Evans, the Kings were all determined to play the role. Soon, the Trail Blazers gained a great advantage.
Evans is indeed trying hard to fight against Xue Ding, but he is helpless. Xue Ding is indeed one level higher than him, and the strength of the two is also a star gap.
He and Xue Ding were angry, but Xue Ding didn't feel anything, so he fought normally.
Xue Ding's breakthrough in the first quarter felt pretty good, and Evans didn't have much strength to fight back.
By the time the second quarter was in the middle of the score difference had been widened to more than 10 points.
The Trail Blazers' second team is now seriously insufficient, and Xue Ding is still leading the team.
Xue Ding had no objection to leading the second team.
Now McMillan’s request is that Xue Ding and the second team can continue to widen the gap, make the game to garbage time early, and then get a break early, because they will have to play back-to-back next time.
Xue Ding's own idea was the same. He pulled the score apart early, got a triple-double by himself, and then completed the task of clocking in for three quarters.
However, this phenomenon is that the more anxious you are, the more likely it is to have problems.
When Xue Ding made his debut in the second team, he made three consecutive three-pointers and made all the shots.
In addition to the previous game, Xue Ding had already failed to make 14 consecutive three-pointers, and Xue Ding didn't know what happened. His three-pointer was like a bad shot.
Xue Ding missed a series of shots and was hit by the Kings' young men three times in a row!
The tenacity they showed was far stronger than their current record
After a few rounds, the score difference suddenly returned to 4 points!
Coach McMillan immediately called for a timeout.
"Xue, what are you doing? Don't commit to it anymore."
Coach McMillan said to Xue Ding very seriously...
He has been withstood by Xue Ding, the Iron King for a long time.
Xue Ding didn’t know what to say, but it was obviously a large vacant position, so why did he invest in it indiscriminately?
However, Xue Ding also knew that if he could make an investment, McMillan would not care, but if he didn't make an investment, he would make an investment indiscriminately.
McMillan found that Xue Ding was obviously a little stubborn and a little erratic.
If Xue Ding got up and played well, McMillan wouldn't say anything, but Xue Ding saw that the king was weak today and the score difference was a little different, he immediately started to mess around.
Xue Ding's singles ability is good, but Xue Ding's three-point shooting ability is far from reaching the point where he can shoot whatever he wants. He must be obviously in the rhythm to shoot.
Let's see how bad he is. In the previous games, he has made 0 of 14 shots.
McMillan felt distressed when she saw Xue Ding making three points!
Every time Prince Xue Ding hits the iron in his heart.
It hurts a lot.
The Kings' defense doesn't care about Xue Ding's three-pointer at all, and then for others, they will defend whoever holds the ball.
McMillan felt that Xue Ding, a rookie, had no idea what to do, and he insisted on playing singles.
It would be strange if you continue like this and don't change the pit.
McMillan always felt that Xue Ding was a little lost.
A good coach needs to preach. McMillan feels that his observation ability is OK, but his management ability is not good. However, since he realizes the problem, he must learn to change.
This time, coach McMillan pointed out Xue Ding’s problem more strictly!
After all, Xue Ding is not a person like James who covers the sky with one hand, so he still respects McMillan very much.
Hearing McMillan's refutation, Xue Ding suddenly woke up.
Xue Ding also felt that he seemed a little drifty!
The more exciting the opponent is, the more you are, the more you are fooled.
This is a typical mentality that you don’t relax. You always want to hit three points quickly, and you always want to give your opponent good looks, and gradually let yourself off the right growth track.
After being told by Coach McMillan, Xue Ding calmed down.
He knew that he should not be impatient with the touch. Xue Ding remembered that he had a good attitude when he first played the game. He didn't care too much about certain things. Many things came naturally and could perform normally with the flow of three-pointers.
After experiencing James, I feel that I underestimated my opponent a little, and it is also a problem with my mentality.
Seeing Xue Ding seemingly reflecting, Coach McMillan nodded with relief.
Xue Ding has a good temper and is also humble in learning, which is something that other self-righteous newcomers do not have.
You talk about him, and he still listens, the head coaches do like this type of player.
Xue Ding is very similar to Ah Lian, Yao Ming and others in this regard. After all, he is also a child who grew up with exam-oriented education. He still understands many principles of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao.
Of course, listening is listening, and whether or not doing it is another matter.
...
After the timeout, Xue Ding was not replaced and continued to play. Xue Ding's partner was the rooster man Webster, Pulpzbila, Cunningham, and Zhu Wan Howard.
Blake was replaced, and McMillan arranged for the pitcher Webster, who was in high form recently, to open up the space and create a better opportunity for Xue Ding to make breakthroughs.
Swear no matter how much you scold.
But McMillan still gave Xue Ding a chance to regain his feel.
After all, it is hard to come by a bad team.
There are not many opponents who can widen the score difference by starting from the Trail Blazers now.
McMillan hopes that Xue Ding can seize the opportunity and regain his previous 30% three-pointer feel, rather than only 0% now. In addition to the feel, this is also a training for Xue Ding's leadership ability.
When he is in trouble, how to get the team to gain an advantage is what Xue Ding needs to train.
No matter how others brag about Xue Dingchao Zhanke, McMillan knew very well.
Chapter completed!
