Chapter 48 Half Idol Riley
Chapter 48 Half Idol Riley
After beating the Grizzlies, the Blazers got three days off.
Su Yang's appointment as the offensive coach was quickly reported within the team via email, and Outlaw and others called him to congratulate him.
He took the opportunity to initiate a party invitation. The name was to celebrate his promotion, and by the way, let the team wash away the fatigue of the away trip. The actual purpose was to break the ice in the relationship between Adelaide and Roy.
Outlaw and others happily agreed, and the whole team rushed to Portland Forest Park for a barbecue on the afternoon of the [-]th. Su Yang directly brought the topic to the movie that both Roy and Ade liked.
Originally, according to the original historical trajectory, Roy and Ade had to wait until the off-season to participate in Nike activities together, and then they accidentally talked about the topic of movies. They took the initiative to chat during the game, and finally became friends after several dinners with Outlaw as an intermediary.
Su Yang made things happen ahead of time, hoping that the two would build trust as soon as possible, which would benefit both of them and even the whole team.
When Ade and Roy stopped chatting, Su Yang found Roy alone, suggesting that Ade needs to be given more attention, especially emphasizing that it is not status, but attention.
Because Adelaide does not want to compete for the boss, but also does not want to be ignored. The problem of differential treatment in the previous All-Star canvassing is the main reason for Adelaide's decline in performance.
Roy's grades in high school were poor, so bad that his basketball talent was excellent. He only needed a little score to go to college, but he still didn't pass the test several times. His IQ was quite average.
But Roy worked as a porter at the Seattle wharf before graduating from high school. He is very familiar with the world and is more mature than other rookies, and he quickly understood Su Yang's hints.
Su Yang said that Roy should be the big brother and take care of little brother Ade's emotions.Roy happily agreed and promised to do it.
The barbecue activity didn't end until the evening, Ade and Roy chatted happily, and the others also felt relaxed.
When he got home, Su Yang wrote an email to the team’s president of operations Larry Miller and copied it to the general manager Kevin, suggesting that Roy and Adelaide should not be distinguished from each other in the future. Causes and pros and cons.
Kevin quickly responded to the email, promising that he would pay attention to basketball affairs, but Rami Miller did not make a formal reply for a long time, nor did he briefly mention his thoughts.
On the early morning of the [-]th, Su Yang rushed to the training base as usual, got the video of the Heat's recent games from his scouting colleagues, and studied it with Bob.
The Heat's record in the new season is terrible. They only won four games in the first seventeen games. In the recent road trip to the Western Conference, they lost consecutively to the Jazz and Nuggets, and are suffering a three-game losing streak.
The scouting report gave an analysis, and believed that the dismantling of the Heat's championship lineup and the serious decline in O'Neal's offensive and defensive ends were the main reasons for the Heat's losing streak, and Wade's return from injury was the secondary reason.
Seeing the three reasons for the Heat's loss, Su Yang immediately thought of Pat Riley, who was the facilitator of these three reasons and even played a decisive role.
"Riley is really ruthless..." Su Yang sighed.
The Heat's victory in 06 can be said to be good luck + overdraft. Good luck is Wade's explosion in the finals. Overdraft is because Wade's knees were mostly crippled, and O'Neal also declined sharply.
But with so many overdraws, Riley sent Kapono and Posey away with a backhand. He didn't think about defending his title at all, nor did he think about making Wade a little easier.
And this season, Riley has already prepared to send O'Neal away, let the team enter the rebuilding stage, and fully wait for the free market in the summer of 10 years.
"Ordinary people really can't do this kind of thing..."
After Su Yang sighed, he continued to check the Heat's recent game video, but there was really nothing to see. If he didn't follow the usual process, he just wanted to turn it off quickly.
In the first [-] games, the Heat ranked first in the league in terms of points per game and points per [-] rounds, and also ranked last on the defensive end.
Can win four games, the main opponent is too bad, there is nothing worth studying, and there is nothing that needs special attention.
"The Heat's offense and defense are poor..." Su Yang complained.
"It's normal. Pat Riley is a speculator and a gambler. He is far inferior to Don Nelson and Popovich in terms of tactics, and he is even inferior to Phil Jackson..."
Bob, the scouting supervisor, said, "But he is also willing to steal from other coaches, and even take those tactics to the extreme, that's where he is good."
Su Yang nodded in agreement.
Riley is indeed a speculator. The main reason he left the Lakers for the Knicks and the Knicks for the Heat was the potential of those two teams.
In terms of offense, Riley mainly learned from Bobby Knight and Pete Newell, and also from Paul Westhead, and finally claimed to create a 5series system, but that system is far from the triangle offense and Princeton, etc. The popularity of the tactical system, its main features are misleading and back cover, to put it bluntly, it relies more on player talent.
Magic Johnson once publicly stated that in the era of the Lakers Showtime coached by Riley, there was nothing unusual in tactics, just running to the death of the opponent so that the opponent could not catch up...
As for defense, Riley mainly learned from his opponent in the SHOWTIME era-Pistons head coach Chuck Daly. The main characteristics are fierce pressing, fierce double-teaming, and fierce physical contact.
In short, highlight a ferocity.
But the premise of being fierce is to have enough talent.
Therefore, Riley has never coached a team without talent for a long time, and it can be said that he is smarter than Phil Jackson.
"To be honest, I'm quite envious of Pat Riley. I don't have his passion and guts. He can control everything and have no scruples..." Scout Bob sighed.
Su Yang nodded again in agreement.
Riley was unknown when he was a player. After retiring, in order to become a coach, he followed Bobby Knight and Pete Newell's coach training courses to many places in the United States. Far from being comparable.
When he became the head coach of the Lakers, Riley dared to confront big names such as Magician and greatly increased the amount of training. His courage was far beyond that of ordinary coaches.
Later, when he left the Knicks, Riley was still on a one-year contract, but he had no scruples or morals at all, and let the Heat boss find a way to solve it.
As for seeing the friendship between Wade and LeBron later, decisively dismantling the Heat to win the championship lineup, and betting on the free market for 10 years, it is really a success or a failure.
"I regard Riley as a half-idol..." Su Yang said sincerely, "He was born as an ordinary person, and after retiring, he did various operations, and finally became a godfather of a generation, he can be called the chosen one."
"Then you can have a good fight with him tomorrow night. If you want to defeat him, I think you are stronger than him, and you are more like the chosen one." Bob's tone was quite sincere.
Su Yang nodded silently. He really wanted to confront Riley face to face, and this was an excellent opportunity. Riley should end his coaching career next season.
During the conversation, the video analysis ended.
Su Yang walked out of the office and was interviewed by official website reporter Casey Hodell according to the arrangement of the public relations department.
The two first talked about becoming an offensive coach, then about the team barbecue they held before, and finally about their upcoming opponent, the Heat.
On a whim, Su Yang took the initiative to mention Riley as an idol, and was excited for this match.
In the evening, Su Yang saw that the report was forwarded by ESPN, and ESPN reporters used the report to interview Riley.
In the interview video, the reporter first said that Su Yang admired Riley, then mentioned Su Yang's two exquisite lore tactics, and finally asked Riley what he thought of Su Yang.
Riley obviously thought about it for half a second, and replied that he didn't know Su Yang, turned around and walked away, leaving the reporter with a dazed face, and that answer sparked a lot of discussion among the fans.
After watching the video, Su Yang felt happy: "Riley is very good at using the media, and knows what the media and fans want to hear..."
