Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

Chapter 142 Ten Wins in a Row!Amazing performance at supersonic speed!

At the press conference, Lu Yong commented on the game and said with a smile: "I am very happy that the Supersonics can become the first team to win 30 games this season. The results cannot be separated from the hard work and hard work of the players. This is for them. Best compliment."

After defeating the Pistons, the Sonics' record came to 30 wins and 4 losses, ranking first in the league, leading the league's second Celtics by 4 wins, and it is difficult to be shaken in a short time.

With his amazing ability to lead the team, Lu Yong quickly became popular in the sports world. In just two seasons, he transformed the Supersonics into the league's No. [-] team. No one questioned Lu Yong's concept of advocating offense. Now he is only short of a championship to prove himself .

Lu Yong did not comment on the Pistons head coach Michael Curry. Fans know better than anyone the strength of the coaching level, so he doesn't need to say much.

After the comparison, everyone felt that Curry would not be able to employ people, and he would definitely be fired by the Pistons management next season, and he was not at the same level as Lu Yong.

The reporter asked: "Ramon Sessions, who was picked by the Sonics in the second round last season, played well in his rookie season, but this year he doesn't have much playing time. Can you comment on Ramon's potential?"

"Ramon is a very good player. He puts enough enthusiasm on both ends of the offense and defense, but the players on the Sonics guard line are all different types. I will make adjustments to the lineup according to the characteristics of the opponent to ensure The most reasonable lineup response has always been my coaching style." Lu Yong laughed.

Sessions is indeed a qualified rotation player, but this season the Sonics are under too much competitive pressure, and his talent is not as good as the others. It is reasonable to play less playing time.

Lu Yong is currently waiting and watching in the trading market to see if Sessions can be exchanged for a more experienced immediate combatant. Otherwise, his rookie contract expires in the summer, and the Supersonics can only let him go for nothing and open the contract. The chances of keeping people are small.

After the game, coach Lu Yong made a big splash in this game of wits and received more praise than the players.

Lu Yong's employment is very targeted, and every time he makes adjustments to the lineup, he can achieve good results. He has surpassed Michael Curry in terms of on-the-spot response.

Curry lacks flexibility in employing people, and almost always replaces people at the time. If the team lags behind, they will take the main force in advance, and they are a proper tool man coach.

If the Pistons management didn't want to save a liquidated damages, they would want to fire Curry now.

He will definitely not be able to stay this summer, and other teams will not invite him to be the coach. His coaching career has come to an end, and he can only start from the position of assistant coach.

On January 1, the Supersonics played against the Nuggets at home, which was another contest between the head coaches.

Nuggets coach George Karl is a well-known offensive master. He was nicknamed "Crazy Karl". Golden State Warriors.

After the Nuggets sent away Iverson this season, their strength has greatly increased. Billups' offensive and defensive style is more suitable for playing next to Anthony.Coupled with the rise of the sixth man JR-Smith, the Nuggets rushed all the way to the second place in the West, suppressing the two veteran teams of the Spurs and Mavericks.

It's a pity that no matter how strong the Nuggets' offensive firepower is, they still failed to beat the Sonics, 107 to 121, and lost the away game.

Kenyon Martin's injury made the team's offense concentrate on the outside. Lu Yong ordered the players to strengthen the mid-range and long-range defense, deliberately let the Nuggets players enter the inside, and Noah guarded the penalty area to send out interference.

The effect of this defensive tactic is good, and it is very effective against a shooting-oriented team like the Nuggets. The Nuggets' shooting percentage is only 40.6%, and they are suppressed by the Sonics from the beginning to the end.

JR-史密斯对位德尔菲诺也没占到便宜，全场15投5中，三分5中1，只得11分3篮板1助攻，命中率33.3%。

Another sixth-man player, Linas Kleiza, performed even worse. In the second quarter, he played against PJ Tucker. He was entangled by the defense like a dog skin plaster. He made 8 of 2 shots and 3 of 0 three-pointers. , No free throws, only 4 points and 3 rebounds, scoring far below the season average.

The starting lineup of the Nuggets is good, but the depth of the bench is far inferior to the Sonics. There are only a few players who can play. George Karl's 8-man rotation will test the physical fitness of the core players. Once the schedule is tight, the players will be easy. Misfired.

The next day, the Sonics beat the Philadelphia 114ers back-to-back 93-76.

Lu Yong arranged for players to focus on Louis Williams to play. No matter who is misplaced, he can use his body to force him.

Lu Wei is 1 meters tall and weighs only 88 kilograms. He has a thin body and poor resistance.

In the parallel world, this guy has been elected as the best sixth man three times. He is a surprise player on the bench, and his scoring ability is better than most starters.In the peak season, he averaged 22.6 points, 2.5 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game, and his strength is not bad.

It's a pity that the reason why Lu Wei is destined to only be the sixth man is that the defense is too bad. As long as he plays, he is easy to be targeted by the opponent. Compared with the starter with strong confrontation, the role of the sixth man is obviously more suitable for him.

However, since the 76ers changed coaches midway, Tony Diller started Lu Wei in the starting lineup, and this has become a weak link targeted by the Supersonics.

Before the first half of the game was over, Lu Wei received his fourth personal foul. His intermittent playing time affected his offense. He could only sit on the sidelines and drink water with a depressed face, without sweating.

Without Louis Williams, the 76ers didn't have many players who could score in positional battles. Although Iguodala and Thaddeus Young performed well, the team still lost without any suspense.

On January 1, the Sonics, who had a day off, played another attack wave, beating the Nets 8 to 132, winning ten consecutive victories.

Since Kidd was traded to the Mavericks, the strength of this team has plummeted. The team led by Carter and Devin Harris alone is uncompetitive, and it is not much better than the Knicks in the bottom of the East.

Carter is entrusting his agent to negotiate with the Nets management recently, hoping that he can be sent to a championship team. The short-lived glory that belongs to New Jersey has finally come to an end.

杜兰特这场打爆了文斯-卡特，出战31分钟，17投9中，三分球4中2，罚球5中5，砍下25分5篮板6助攻2抢断，赛季第六次轰出25+5+5的个人数据。

篮网二年级新秀易建联首发出场打了27分钟，9投5中，三分球1中0，罚球2中2，得到12分5篮板1助攻1封盖，表现不俗。

After the game, Lu Yong stood on the sidelines and chatted with Ah Lian, wishing him smooth sailing in the Nets, which aroused heated discussions among domestic fans.

With 33 wins and 4 losses, the Sonics had an amazing performance in the first half of the season. No one questioned the competitiveness of this team. There was only expectation and envy in addition to admiration.
