The King of the NBA

Adelman’s goal this season is not only to enter the playoffs, but also not to enter the second round, because they have done it last season.

This season, they need to go further. Adelman also believes that they can go further. Love’s status is steady and rising. Ning Yi’s progress is even more shocking. Although Pekovic is missing, but But there are more people such as Turner, Jack, Jokic, Whiteside, Clarkson and so on.

　　 Perhaps the outside world will find these people unbearable. After all, except Turner, no one else has had any outstanding results, or they are rookies.

　　 But Adelman knew that this was not the case.

Ning Yi and Love, the two have far exceeded the expectations of the outside world, their strength is stronger than last season, their tacit understanding has become higher, Dion, Rubio, Shabatz and other people are also improving . Jokic, Whiteside, Clarkson, Jack and others all have their own characteristics. If used properly, they will play a big role.

　　 The only thing is Turner, how to make him adapt to the Timberwolves as soon as possible, find his own position, this is a problem.

　　All in all, if Adelman coaches well, their strength will grow at a visible rate, much stronger than last season.

　　 Adelman also has such self-confidence, leading the players to get better results, going further this season, entering the Western Conference finals, and even the finals.

“If you give us enough time to win the championship, it is not impossible. But they are still very young and not enough time. But even so, we must try hard.” Adelman thought secretly, looking towards the field on.

　　 The timeout is over and the game continues.

　　The Pacers didn’t let the main players play for long, and almost all of them were replaced at this time.

In fact, the Pacers have been in trouble this season. The star Paul George was seriously injured in July and will miss all games this season. Although the Pacers responded immediately to strengthen the team as much as possible, but less Paul George, their competitiveness will inevitably decline by one grade.

　　 Even from this preseason game, you can see one or two.

When the two sides returned to the field, the Timberwolves still firmly hold the upper hand. Now in this lineup, Clarkson is playing the 1st position, but he is actually not accusing the guard, he is more like a 2nd. And Jokic, the insider, is the real organizer.

　　Ning Yi had told Adelman a long time ago, and had talked with Adelman not long ago, and suggested to Adelman to train Jokic well, not as a traditional insider, he should give full play to his comprehensiveness.

　　Through the summer league, Adelman also had some understanding of Jokic and agreed with Ning Yi’s suggestion, but it is the first time for Jokic to take on the organizational task like today.

　　 This time, it was a test of Jokic, and it was also a test.

　　 “Shoot!”

　　 Clarkson scored a goal for Jokic and moved to the left and came out of the three-point line on the left corner.

　　 The white edge is low on the left side, Shabates intersperses back and forth, and Turner is outside the right three-point line.

Jokic raised the basketball. He was tall and long, with good vision. At a glance, he saw the position of his teammates. He made a fake pass to the right. In fact, his left hand flicked and passed the ball to Whiteside. .

Whiteside took the ball and backed singles. The person who originally defended Clarkson subconsciously contracted the defense line to help the inside player form a package for Whiteside. Whiteside scored the ball to Clarkson. The Pacers also quickly adjusted the defense. Clark Sen hesitated for a while, or re-passed the ball to Jokic.

　　 started the ball, and Jokic didn’t delay. While the opponent’s attention was drawn to the left side of the court, he grabbed the ball with one hand and threw it inside.

“not good.”

　　 “Be careful not to cut.”

　　 The Pacers were shocked, but it was too late.

　　 Shabatz cut into the air and received a pass from Jokic, which was a dunk with a two-handed frame.

　　 Adelman nodded secretly, Jokic fully demonstrated his passing spirituality, his mind was clear, and the pass was also very good. If he was not so tall, you would never think of him as an insider.

　　 In the next few minutes, Adelman made another rotation, replacing Shabatz, Turner, and replacing Brewer and Morris Williams.

　　Although the personnel has changed, Jokic can still control the overall situation well, guide the team’s offense, and make the Timberwolves’ offense play as reasonable as possible.

Rubio could not help but sigh in this situation: “Jokic has a keen sense of smell, can grasp the timing clearly, the overall situation is very strong, the passing vision is wide, and the passing technique is also very good. This guy is not Inside? How does it look like a point guard? This is really strange.”

“No.” Ning Yi said with a smile: “Excuse me, who stipulates that the inside must have 10 rebounds instead of ten assists? Who stipulates that outside players cannot take 10 rebounds per game? Rubio, Times It has changed. Look at Love, he is also inside, but how good is his three points? And Westbrook, he is only 191 cm, but he can get 10 rebounds in a game~www.mtlnovel. com~ Now, do you still think Jokic is weird?”

　　 “Uh…” Rubio was dumb, thinking in his heart.

　　Yeah, Ning Yi was right, the times have changed. Look at Stephen Curry, look at Russell Westbrook, and look at Kevin Love, nba is not the same as before.

　　 This is an era of change.

　　Will traditional guards like yourself be eliminated by this era?

　　 Rubio had to have an association. The accusation of traditional point guards is to organize offenses. It does not require you to score points or rebounds. As long as you are well organized, you can get eight or nine assists per game.

　　 But look at Westbrook, look at Curry, is this still the same as before?

　　 Traditional defenders like Rubio and Rondo are facing challenges. Rubio’s shot is a bruise. Like Rondo, Ning Yi’s words gave him a sense of crisis.

　　 “If I don’t make changes and don’t improve the shooting, although it may not be eliminated by this stage in the future, it is really likely to be eliminated by the Timberwolves.” Rubio secretly said.

　　He knows that this is not groundless, but fact.

　　Ning Yi not only has excellent scoring ability, but also has excellent organizational ability, which has been verified last season. Last season, Rubio was often placed in the second team because of this.

　　 Now there is another Jokic.

　　If Rubio doesn’t improve his shooting anymore, he can only pass the ball. It seems that he can’t be mixed not only in the starting lineup but also in the second lineup.
