Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 375 This is Lu Yu with High EQ (Subscribe)
During the Suns' road trip, the NBA's trade deadline came, and the Suns paid a first-round pick, plus Paul Searay was traded from the Grizzlies to Battier.

The other teams in the league were stunned. Are the Grizzlies afraid that the Suns will not be able to win the championship?
Many teams protested, but the Suns' deal was completely in line with the rules, and Battier was not a star player. David Stern thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to ignore it.

Fortunately, like Chris Paul in Lu Yu's previous life, he didn't come up with a basketball rule.

This is also the reason why Shane Battier's weight did not reach.

However, although Battier is not a cannonball guy, Battier made up for the last shortcoming for this Suns.

It is difficult for Sun Bishop D'Antoni.

Is it true that Nash is on the bench?
D'Antoni, who was sitting in the office, was smoking one cigarette after another, brushing his hair while smoking. How should this lineup be arranged?
It stands to reason that he does not intend to move the current lineup, because he has been winning games now.

But the boss has already traded Battier, if not, what should the boss do if he asks?
Let Battier play the starter, who will go down?
Richardson?

Richardson is Lu Yu's hardcore guard with a knife. Without Richardson, the Suns would not have won so many games.

Marion's defense is equally important.

That leaves Nash and Haslem.

Haslem is inside, how to defend when he is replaced?

No no no.

That leaves only Nash.

After all, Battier was traded at the beginning because Nash's perimeter defense was too poor.

Let Nash play off the bench?

Too extravagant, right?
D'Antoni was having a headache when there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door, it was Lu Yu. When Lu Yu walked into the room and smelled the smell of smoke, he knew he had come to the right place.

"I heard that the team traded Sean."

"Yes."

"How is it, is it a headache?"

"..."

D'Antoni was silent for a while, sighed and said, "I plan to let Steve play as a substitute, do you think it's feasible?"

Lu Yu shook his head: "Steve will not agree. If it is necessary to make such adjustments in tactics, it can only be arranged in other rotation times, but Steve must not be allowed to really play as a substitute."

Sometimes basketball game tactics are not so important, the most important thing is people's hearts.

If a team doesn't have the same heart and wants to win the game, it becomes a very difficult thing.

"We can try to use Udonis as a substitute. We will form a lineup of one big and four small." Lu Yu continued.

This style of play was commonly used by the Warriors in Lu Yu's previous life, and even the Warriors were the fifth team of death, but Lu Yu actually looked tall, and he was actually a guard's style of play, and he was still a team of five players.

"One big and four small?"

D'Antoni froze for a moment.

"That's right, our tactics should not be limited to one, but should be diversified. For example, one big and four small. This style of play is our fastest one, making the opponent completely unable to keep up with us. For example, you just now It is said that Nash led the rotation lineup and used Battier to ambush the bottom corner in the starting lineup. This is equivalent to the original tactic, except that Nash was replaced by Battier, but the perimeter defense was improved, and when I was not on the court. , they can run away under the leadership of Nash."

Lu Yu said briefly, and the three he mentioned are exactly the three tactics that the Suns will use in the future.

Especially their Five Little Tactics of Death.

The Death Five can be said to be a lineup or a style of play. The Death Five includes many kinds of tactics. Its style of play is composed of five players who can attack with the ball. All five players can attack. As a playmaker and finisher, this style of play emphasizes speed and counter-attack, screen and pick-and-roll quality.

In the death five small lineup, three-pointers and defense changes are essential.

The only problem with the five-death tactic is the rebound and the inside frame protection. If other teams use the five-death tactic and encounter a giant like O'Neal, they will probably be crushed to pieces.

But the Suns will not, the Suns have Lu Yu guarding the inside, even O'Neal has to give way.

After two days of rest, Battier came to Phoenix to report that he has passed the physical examination and will make his home debut in the next game.

Battier was very excited to come to the sun and hug Lu Yu tightly.

The two players, who were rivals in college, finally became teammates after entering the league for a few years.

Lu Yu secretly sighed: "It seems that other teams in the league really have to spend a whole season in vain this time."

With Battier's defense, Lu Yu knew that the strength of the Suns had risen to a higher level.

Originally, when they met the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals, there might have been a 90-[-] situation. Now Lu Yu is [-]% sure that he can beat the Spurs.

But the Suns will have to wait for half a month to meet the Spurs.

The next opponent is the Eagles. The Atlanta Hawks have no hope this season. They are the fish in the belly, so the loss is a matter of course.

No one cares how many points the Suns won. At first glance, the Suns only won by 136 points 107 to 29.

But you must know that the Eagles were beaten helplessly from the beginning. The reason why they lost 29 points was because the Suns finally had all their substitutes on top to play with the opponent.

If you have been playing the main force, it is estimated that 29 will definitely not be able to stop, and 59 is about the same.

The head coach of the Eagles said in an interview after the game: "Others say that the offense of the Suns is terrifying. In my opinion, their defense is the most terrifying. Battier's arrival has brought about a qualitative change in their defense. From now on, they're as invulnerable as the Decepticons."

Decepticons are the villains in Transformers.

If there is no Optimus Prime in the league, then all teams will be defeated by the Decepticon Sun.

Is there Optimus Prime in the league?

No, at least not yet.

If there is one thing to say, it is NBA Commissioner David Stern.

Unless David Stern intervenes, it will be difficult for any team to check and balance the Suns. David Stern also regrets it. He didn't expect such a big thing to happen when the Suns traded Battier. Variety.

The Spurs have become so strong this year, but the Spurs players are almost all self-cultivated, such as Parker, such as Ginobili, so the Spurs have become stronger, and Stern has no moves at all.

And the Spurs are strong, and the solar energy can suppress it.

Originally, the strength of the Suns and the Spurs was almost the same. David Stern thought about the playoffs and used the confrontation between the two teams as a gimmick. But now because of Battier, this balance has been broken. He regrets endlessly.

Now I can only pray that the Suns are not that strong.

Otherwise, he would regret that he did not intervene in the transaction. He is the president of the alliance, and he is responsible for the entire alliance. This alliance needs myths and heroes, but it does not need to be without passion.

Just like Jordan back then, no matter how good Jordan was, every time he would meet tough opponents who almost pulled him down.

The Supersonics and Jazz in those years were the background boards that set off Jordan's hero.

But if the Suns are a dimension above the rest of the team, do the Suns still need a backdrop?
No need!
The games in the entire league, when they meet the Suns, will turn into a crush. No matter how exciting the matchups between other teams are, the fans will say that they are boring, and they are a bunch of idiots when they meet the Suns.

David Stern is very embarrassed, because some transactions are not something he can interfere with if he wants to.

Although he regretted not interfering, he knew that even if he intervened in this matter, he might not be able to achieve his final goal.

Because the boss of the Suns is Colangelo.

Forget it, now I can only open one eye and close one eye.

From the current point of view, if the Suns win the championship this season and the lineup remains intact, even if Nash's state declines after three or four years, it will not affect the Suns' championship window at all.

Because Nash seems to only account for one-third of all the tactics on this team.

A few days later, the Suns played an away game against the Supersonics. Lu Yu had dinner with Yi Jianlian in the afternoon.

Yi Jianlian has been having a headache recently. He finally made it to the starting lineup, but he was a center forward. The coach asked him to guard the basket and do a good job of defense. As a result, he was repeatedly crushed by opponents at the basket. Many media ridiculed him for his poor defense.

Lu Yu gave him a suggestion: "You only need to do your best in defense. There is no need to work hard every round. You can watch more of Nowitzki's videos to see how he plays. He is only responsible for grabbing the ball. Rebounding and scoring, defense has never been his job, but no one said he was bad defensively."

Yi Jianlian was stunned, can he still do this?
But in this case, can the coach agree?
In fact, he was wrong. If he showed his scoring talent, the coach would naturally arrange other people to do the defensive work. Who would let Nowitzki, a high scorer, fight desperately in the paint with his opponent in a game?
There are still some players in the league who specialize in rebounding and scoring, and still enter the All-Star Game. Some players are tired of defending like dogs, but they are still cut in the end.

"In that case, how can the team win?" Yi Jianlian asked subconsciously.

Lu Yu smiled: "What does it matter to you whether the team wins or not? What you have to do is to consider your next contract. Besides, how many games can the Supersonics win in a season? The playoffs? How far can you go in the playoffs? Can you win the championship? The more playing time, the better you can train yourself.”

Yi Jianlian seemed to have figured out something.

In fact, in terms of physical talent, Yi Jianlian may not be as good as Lu Yu and Yao Ming, but he is definitely better than Wang Zhizhi. The only thing he lacks than Wang Zhizhi is his soft shooting touch.

This is also a kind of talent, there is no way, some people are born with a bad touch when shooting.

But it can be practiced.

should be able to.

In short, Yi Jianlian's shooting can't be said to be bad, it's just not that good.

In the game that night, the Suns quickly defeated their opponents. Battier is one of those players whose stats are not good, but whose effects are obvious. This kind of players can only show their value in the winning team.

After three quarters, the game entered garbage time, and the Suns won by another 30 points.

In this game, Yi Jianlian grabbed 17 rebounds and scored 26 points. He shot from the outside, and Lu Yu interfered with it symbolically. As a result, he was able to make a shot.

Although Lu Yu once again scored a triple-double of 30+ points, no one said that Yi Jianlian was not good at defending in this game. They all praised him for his outstanding performance, which is a rare highlight for the Sonics.

No one paid attention to his 17 rebounds, mostly backcourt rebounds, and there was no difficulty at all.

But the data looks good here.

At the end of February, Lu Yu won the Player of the Month in the Western Conference again, and the Player of the Week in the Western Conference three times, becoming the most beautiful cub in the entire league for a while.

Entering March, the Suns lost their only game, to the Spurs, due to Lu Yu's rest.

Lu Yu sent a message to his teammates to apologize, because his personal affairs caused the team to lose, but fortunately, they are 3 games ahead of the Spurs, and losing a game does not affect the overall situation.

Lu Yu's rest was not because he was too tired to fight, but because he wanted to ask for leave to deal with his personal affairs.

Anne and Charlize are both pregnant.

Now it's fun, the two wives are going to confinement together.

Lu Yu simply got the two women together and took them both to Phoenix, because Charlize and Anne were sisters and had a good relationship, and they fought with Lu Yu together.

So don't be embarrassed.

Hopefully it won't be a daughter this time.

If the two are pregnant together, there should be a boy according to the probability.

Lu Yu is really not patriarchal, but just look at Kobe, and he will really be used as a joke by fans for always having a daughter.

But now fans don't know that Lu Yu has a child.

I don't even know that Lu Yu has a girlfriend, and there are so many girlfriends.

There are two girlfriends in the alliance at the same time, and the two girlfriends know each other, that is, Lu Wei from Lu Yu's previous life.

A street in Los Angeles, inquire who is the father, that Lu Wei.

That's what fans are talking about.

The point is that his two girlfriends are not very famous. If fans know that Lu Yu has so many girlfriends, and each girlfriend is a top star or boss.

Lu Yu is estimated to be hammered to death by fans.

That's when he really became the real villain.

And Lu Yu asked for leave because of a personal matter, which also made the team members feel no disgust. After all, Lu Yu sent them a message to inform them and expressed his apology.

If you were the boss of another team, why did you inform your role players.

Lu Yu is different. He takes the responsibility for the loss on himself. Of course, should the team lose without him? Certainly not. Some fans even said that without Lu Yu, the Suns would be an underdog.

I don't know if I was blind, but the Spurs lost.

And only lost nine points.

Even without Lu Yu, the Suns are already a strong team, but this is the result of Lu Yu.

And Lu Yu's approach also warmed the hearts of his teammates. They were all willing to help Lu Yu win the championship, and at the same time help them win the championship.

This is Lu Yu with high EQ.
