The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

After entering time in September, Wang Xiao ended his special training for Curry and other four people, and gave them a small long vacation.

At the end of September, the team will formally gather players to prepare for the pre-season and regular season.

Taking advantage of this holiday, Wang Xiao also returned to the country and visited his parents.

Wang Xiao's return to China this time was very low-key and did not disturb any media.

Nowadays, he is not a quietly unknown coach two years ago. Although he has never appeared in the nba field, in China, Wang Xiao’s popularity has been quite high, especially not long ago, Yao was king in the media. After Xiao Xiao's voice, his popularity in the country began to skyrocket.

Wang Xiao did not want to be disturbed by the media when he returned to visit his parents, so many domestic media even thought that Wang Xiao was still in the United States.

After spending two weeks quietly at home, Wang Xiao returned to Washington again.

The time for the players to return to training is September 25, and the coaches should return to the team some time in advance.

Unlike the Summer League, whose main purpose is to examine the status and level of players, the preseason preparation as a pre-regular game is very important for any team.

For the Wizards who changed nearly half of the teams this summer, they need to run in the lineup in just 7 games, familiarize themselves with their team's play style, and determine the lineup of each team in the new season.

Time is a little tight.

Fortunately, Wang Xiao had designed the approximate tactical system before, and also formulated several sets of tactics suitable for the Wizards based on the tactics of the future Warriors and Rockets two teams representing "sex".

Next, you only need to hand over these tactics to the offensive coach, so that players can practice and become familiar with their daily training.

Compared to offense, Wang Xiao cares more about defense.

Curry, Harden, these two players are definitely not good defensive players.

In many cases, Curry is a warrior who is regarded as a breakthrough point on the court, and Harden is not so good.

Although the small ball tactics are born out of the running and bombing tactics, they are quite different from the running and bombing tactics in defense.

Most of the Warriors remember people's offense, but this team's defense is also quite outstanding.

The current lineup of Wizards, especially Wang Xiao's tentative starting lineup, has a great lack of defense.

In the back, neither Curry nor Harden are defensive players. Butler on the front line is also a typical offensive strong and weak. In contrast, the thin and weak Jamison is also giving a strong attack. Feeling weak, but his defense is unexpectedly OK.

Jamison is not good at blocking, but the protection of rebounding, stealing ability and the awareness of assisting and defending are very good, and the attitude on the defensive end is also considered attentive.

Compared to the other four positions, the Wizards' center position is the only position defensively described as strong.

Brandon Haywood, a typical defensive center, tall and strong, has the ability to eat bread, low post technology is about equal to zero, poor free throws, but the ability to rebound and block shots is very outstanding.

Last season, Haywood missed almost a season due to injury, but Wang Xiao did not hesitate to place him in the starting center position.

Although McGee and Jordan are very talented, they also belong to the center who is good at blocking rebounds, but after all, it is only a second-year rookie. There is a big gap in experience with Haywood.

The Wizards' current defensive ability is probably the bottom of the entire league. Whether the bottom of the Wizards can be improved to a few or even a dozen will depend on the role of the center.

In Wang Xiao's tactical system, the center's main job is to defend, rebound and pick and roll.

As long as the opponent's player breaks through the outside and rushes into the inside to help defend in time, effectively restricting the opponent from scoring easily, Wang Xiao is considered qualified.

To this end, Wang Xiao did not hesitate to bring Jordan, just to let the Wizards inside the advantage of height.

Heywood, McGee, Jordan, three big insiders, whoever got off the court because of defensive fouls, the other one immediately topped, even if relying on the number of piles to pile up defensive quality and rebounds!

As time entered the end of September, players also returned to the team to report.

In the training hall, assistant coaches and players are training to restore "sex".

Wang Xiao stood on the sidelines, watching silently.

Except for the two trades at the draft conference, no action was taken, including the player whose contract expired, and there was no negotiation about the renewal of the contract, so at present, except for the player whose contract expired and left, the Wizards There are 14 people on the big list.

Point guards: Stephen Curry, Patrick Beverly.

Shooting guards: James Harden, Nick Young, Mike James.

Small forwards: Caron Butler, Mike Miller, Danny Green.

Power forwards: Antoine Jamison, Andrey Blatche. Dominique McGuire.

Centers: Brandon Haywood, DeAndre Jordan, Javier McGee.

"...Well, it's not bad, as long as it works well."

"Touch" "touch" the chin, Wang Xiao thought in his heart.

This lineup, as long as the rookies selected this year can grow up, will undoubtedly become quite strong.

Even if there is a small defect on the defensive end, this defect can be covered up with strong offensive firepower, just like the Suns running and running tactics...

"Head coach..."

At this time, the chief assistant coach Walter came over, holding a document in his hand, frowning slightly.

"Is there anything?" Wang Xiao looked at Walter.

"Head coach, there were some problems with the training plan you gave me yesterday, and the amount of training related to three-pointers is too much. I want to ask if I made a mistake." Walter said.

"It's not wrong, the team started training according to this training plan from today."

Wang Xiao's answer made Walter speechless.

He really couldn't understand the head coach's idea.

Almost half of the entire training program is related to three-pointers. What is this for? Do you shoot a lot of three-pointers in the game?

Walter absolutely can't think of it. He actually guessed Wang Xiao's idea.

Soon, the players in training also noticed something was wrong.

"Why are all three-pointers in training today?"

Butler asked with some doubt.

Karon Butler, as a traditional offensive small forward, although he has the ability to shoot three-pointers, his shooting percentage is not particularly high. Compared to shooting three-pointers on the outside, he is more used to holding The ball hit the basket.

Last season he shot fewer three-pointers on the perimeter than power forward Jamison.

There are many people who have the same doubts and doubts. Jamison, Mike Miller, Nick Young and other players are also surprised by such training.

Only Curry and the other four people who participated in Wang Xiao's training during the holiday were not so surprised. Throughout August, they spent almost every day shooting a three-pointer. Now this is a little bit different from the original.
