During the period of the 5th company, there was a wave of 3 consecutive days of rest, from March 22 to 24, which was very helpful for the Sonics.
On the 22nd and 23rd, the Sonics coaching staff did not arrange team training, and only arranged individual technical training on the afternoon of the 23rd.
Rest is important.
The coaching staff did not sit idle, nor did they let several core players idle. After a day off on the 22nd, on the morning of the 23rd, Zhang Hao, Cassell, and Ben Wallace were called to the arena to discuss the next step. schedule.
Yesterday, the coaching staff had discussed how to adjust next, but they still had to go through it with the three core players.
First, we analyzed the changes in the team over the past month or so and the progress of adjustments in various aspects.
Cassel said: "The addition of Lamar has really helped us a lot."
Zhang Hao and Ben Wallace both nodded.
In the past 40 days, the Sonics have played 22 games, going from 39 wins and 9 losses to 54 wins and 16 losses, which means their record during this period is 15 wins and 7 losses.
The record situation does not seem to be much different from before the All-Star weekend, but in late February and early to mid-March, the Sonics' schedule was tighter than in January, and the intensity of their opponents was not as strong as in January. Difference.
In this way, to stabilize the record, first of all, we must at least keep up with the progress of the strong teams in the entire league. It is not easy when there are personnel changes.
Moreover, putting aside the six games in the 10 days just after the All-Star Weekend, the following was 12 wins and 4 losses. In other words, after Odom gradually integrated, the Sonics finally returned from the end of their 23-game winning streak. By February 20th, the winning rate was more than 60%, which improved to a wave of games with a winning rate of more than 70%!
Odom works very hard. He is in a contract year and has another chance to compete for the championship. He also has two old partners from high school in Artest and Zhang Hao.
In order to win three consecutive championships, my teammates are working hard and actively cooperating with the team to adjust.
The coaching staff worked hard and devoted themselves to leading the team to adjust.
The addition of a player with a core style of play, even though he is a substitute, is also very taxing on the reconstruction of the Sonics' overall style of play.
¡°Basically again, these efforts are all deserved.
But even so, in more than 40 days, the adjustment was almost completed
If it¡¯s the beginning of the season, and it takes more than a month to complete adjustments through training camps and preseason games, that wouldn¡¯t be a surprise.
¡°But we were more than halfway into the regular season. It was only in the latter part of the regular season that we started to adjust, and the progress was actually so fast.
The main reason is not about how hard his teammates work or how hard his coach works, but about Odom's talent.
¡°At first, the teammates and coaches were quite reserved, but as time went on, it became¡ª¡®Lamar, you want to do what you want here, what you want to do there¡¡¯
¡°I won¡¯t make excessive demands. After all, it means that if you ask for something, you must do it right away.
But since a request needs to be made, it means that it is not something that can be done casually.
Teammates and the team all need to adjust with Odom immediately, and others make demands on Odom based on what they can do.
Then, Odom really did it!
On this basis, they completed the leap from a winning rate of about 67% to a winning rate of 75%!
In the eyes of others, they currently have 54 wins and 16 losses, with a winning rate of 77%. The "recovery" of this winning rate is not a particularly important thing.
Only they themselves know that this is not a simple matter.
Listening to the coaching staff's analysis, listening to Cassel's praise of Odom, and watching Odom's last 22 games, he averaged 26 minutes per game, scoring 10.5 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1 steal and 1.1 blocks. , 53.1% field goal percentage, 34.3% three-point shooting percentage
Zhang Hao said: "We will definitely make progress. Our direction is right, but now we can only say that we have dispelled people's doubts about our introduction of Lamar. In the next 12 games, we have to do better. , get ready for the playoffs.¡±
In fact, if Odom is traded to another team that is willing to give chips and take a junk contract, it will not bring particularly high attention.
For more than three years, the Raptors, for Carter and Odom, have been consuming the popularity brought by their talents.
The few years in the Raptors did not bring any additional improvement to the two of them.
It¡¯s just because the team is the Sonics and a controversial talent like Odom is added that there are so many topics.
 There are actually very few serious players. Wesley Persson wants to go to a strong championship team while still having the strength. This is what most ordinary stars do to cling to their dignity at this age.
Wesley Persson's buyout agreement with the Grizzlies has been reached, but he is not yet able to join immediately and has to deal with some details. The SuperSonics have basically settled the deal with Wesley Persson. After signing the contract, that night, we faced the challenge of the Philadelphia 76ers.
¡¡
This season, Zhang Hao won the Player of the Month twice at the beginning of the season. He did not win it in January and February, but he is still one of the players who has won the Player of the Month the most times this season
After February, he was caught up, and Duncan also won the best of the month twice!
"Tim Duncan, 26 years old (April 25, 1976), 211 cm, 116 kg, ability evaluation 102averaged 25.4 points, 12.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1 steal, 2.9 blocks per gameshooting rate 51.3%, free throw shooting The rate is 71%¡¡±
Among the opponents Zhang Hao has seen this year, no matter whether it is the strength displayed on the court or the ratings in the player detection report, no one is better than Duncan!
O'Neal, Kobe, Garnett, Kidd, Tracy McGrady, Iverson they all don't work, they all have a gap!
O'Neal has returned to the level of a 'normal super giant', with a 99 ability rating. Duncan, who is 26-27 years old this season, has become the strongest opponent Zhang Hao has encountered this season!
The 76ers currently have 43 wins and 28 losses, and there is still a certain possibility of reaching 50 wins.
Zhang Hao looked at the opposing lineup. Iverson, Duncan, Aaron McGee, Raheem, Van Horn, Snow, and Kenny Thomas, the seven-man core is great.
But apart from these 7 people, the current strength of the rest of the 76ers team is that some are too old, and some have just entered the NBA Anyway, no one else has the ability to evaluate 70.
In addition, Snow and Aaron McGee have both missed more than 25 games this season, and Raheem and Kenny Thomas also joined the 76ers later That's it, Duncan averaged 25+13+3+1 per game. +3, Iverson averaged 23+4+7+2 per game, Raheem averaged 16+7+2+1 per game
Relying on a seven-man core rotation with two people often injured, the 76ers still have a chance to win 50 wins. As an opponent, Zhang Hao has to give a thumbs up to the opposing Big Three!
The monkey is too difficult! There are no reinforcements, the whole process will be c!
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
