With three points at the start, Nash begged for a maximum salary to renew his contract

Chapter 21 The goal, squeeze out Dior as the starter
"Huh? Wang Chao, why did your shooting movement change?"

The Suns agreed to practice, and Nash raised his eyebrows slightly as he watched Wang Chao's shot.

"Yes." Wang Chao, who was standing at the top arc three-point line, made a brisk shot and successfully hit a hollow shot, and said with a smile at the same time. "I think the previous shooting was too procrastinated, and the shooting speed was slow, which didn't suit the rhythm of the NBA game, so I made some adjustments."

"It's true, your shooting action is much better than before. It's crisp and neat, and it's a beautiful shot." Nash said.

In fact, he couldn't remember what Wang Chao's shooting was like before, or in other words, Nash didn't have any special impression of Wang Chao before the crossing.

However, as a top shooter with a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% all the year round, Nash's vision is very unique. He can see the gold content of Wang Chao's shooting action, although this action is slightly different from the most standard shooting action. , but it is very suitable for three-point shooters.

Although Curry hadn't graduated from high school at this time, and he hadn't started to change his shooting movements, it didn't prevent Nash from enjoying the style of the future top shooter's shooting movements.

Of course, the shooting action is only a basic aid, not the better and more scientific the posture, the higher the shooting rate. What really determines a shooter is the shooting rate.

Wang Chao has maintained a super high three-point sight before and after changing his shooting movements. It is entirely conceivable that in order to maintain a good three-point state, he has done a lot of shooting adaptation training during the period of changing shooting movements.

……

After daily practices, head coach Mike D'Antoni gathers the players together.

"Tomorrow we are going to play against the Nuggets. The starting lineup for this game is..."

Wang Chao was not surprised or disappointed when he heard that his name was not included in the starting list read out by the head coach.

Raja Bell will definitely return to the starting list after recovering from the flu.

Although in the future, many people will look down on Bell, thinking that his self-proclaimed Kobe Terminator, and Kobe's behavior of locking his throat in anger is very low, but this does not erase that Bell is the best perimeter defender of this era one of the facts.

两次入选最佳防守阵容，05-06，06-07两个赛季可以稳定的为太阳队贡献14.7分3.2篮板2.5助攻，投篮命中率45.7%，三分命中率44%。

As a player with an annual salary of 450 million US dollars, Bell can definitely be regarded as a model of high quality and low price.

To replace Bell's position in the Suns at this stage, Wang Chao's performance in the previous seven games is far from enough. Even if he can make people shine in three-pointers, his defensive ability is not as good as other aspects. After all, Bell is too far behind.

Wang Chao also didn't want to compete with Bell. In fact, Wang Chao, who is 2 meters tall, is not a shooting guard, but a small forward and a power forward. However, due to his poor physical resistance, he is only suitable for Appeared only in the position of outside players.

The current Wang Chao already has a target for competition, and that is Boris Dior, who is known as the French magician.

The league's evaluation of Dior has always been very good, with excellent ball handling ability, three-point shooting range, inside and outside, good confrontation and movement speed.

Diaw's worth was earned in the Suns, but in the four seasons of the Suns, his performance was like Wang Xiaoer's New Year's Eve, and his performance was not as good as every year.

The 05-06 season, which is the season they are playing now, is the season with the most luxurious statistics for Diaw in the Suns. He averaged 13.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game in the regular season. Averaged 18.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and 5.2 assists.

然而，紧接着的06-07赛季，迪奥的数据便开始轻微下滑，常规赛场均数据跌至9.7分4.3篮板4.8助攻，季后赛更是只有6分3篮板3助攻。

07-08赛季，迪奥场均只有8.8分4.6篮板3.9助攻的数据。

The main reason why Dior's personal data will continue to decline in the Suns is the problem of the Suns' ball rights distribution.

In the 05-06 season, Stoudemire, the first scoring point of the Suns, was reimbursed for the season. The team lacked scorers. Everyone got the shots that belonged to Stoudemire, so the scoring data has improved.

However, with Stoudemire's comeback in the 06-07 season, Dior's ball possession and shot ratio decreased, and his performance was naturally not as good as before.

More importantly, as an all-round power forward, Diaw's characteristics are obviously not obvious enough.

Although he has the ability to shoot, the accuracy outside the three-point line is not enough to achieve a deterrent effect.

Can attack with the ball inside, but the height of 2 meters is short in the inside, and the weight and resistance are not competitive enough.

Excellent pass organization ability is Diaw's biggest plus point, and it is also the origin of his name as a French magician, but the most important thing for the Suns is to organize players. The existence of Nash makes the Suns do not need a second ball holder at all Organizational point, besides, the Suns have Barbosa on the bench.

Although the Brazilian Lightning is not particularly good at organizing offenses, he is a point guard after all, and he still has a little bit of traditional art.

To sum up, although Dior is good at everything, it also means that everything is loose. Although he is outstanding in strength, he is indeed an embarrassing existence with vague positioning for the Suns.

Wang Chao is different, perhaps far inferior to Dior in terms of overall ability, but Wang Chao has an advantage that Dior cannot match, precise long-range three-point shooting.

No one knows better than Wang Chao how important an inside player who is good at long-range shooting is for a fast-paced running and bombing team like the Suns.

Anyway, the Suns have Stoudemire inside to charge, and Wang Chao can be the team's power forward, floating on the outside to pull space and shoot three-pointers.

To sum up, among the five starting players of the Suns, Wang Chao's plan is to squeeze out Dior and become the team's starting power forward.

Of course, this is just Wang Chao's plan. Whether it will work depends on whether his subsequent performance can impress head coach D'Antoni.

……

Finally, on February 2th, the game between the Suns and the Nuggets came.

This game is the last game of the system's eight-game winning streak, and it also directly determines whether Wang Chao can complete the task and get the talent reward for the quick shooter.
