Chapter 1519 Reinforcing Short Boards
In the arena, the Nets players are training.

Meng Yun also joined in. The team's players have all returned, and Meng Yun is the latest one. First, he doesn't have to play the preseason game. Second, because Guo Shuyao is pregnant, he wants to spend more time with his wife.

Because of the addition of Zhuang Shen and Harrell, the Nets' lineup has undergone some changes. The first is the change of the starting lineup. The starting lineup used by the Nets last season was Noel, Yang, Anthony, Harris, and Meng Yun. Now it has become Zhuang Shen, Harrell, Anthony, Harris, and Meng Yun.

Noel and Young became substitutes.

The two were naturally a little upset about being robbed of the starting position, and it showed up during the team training. Meng Yun saw it, and planned to talk to Noel and Yang after they got down.

Coach Atkinson divided Zhuang Shen, Harrell, Anthony, Harris, and Meng Yun into a group. Before Meng Yun did not come back, now that Meng Yun is back, he wants to see whether Zhuang Shen and Harrell are compatible with Meng Yun , The only core of the team is Meng Yun, and everything is based on Meng Yun.

If anyone is incompatible with Meng Yun, no matter whether he is Zhuang Shen or Harrell, and no matter how much money was spent to sign the player, if you are asked to play as a substitute, you can only play as a substitute.

Meng Yun also wanted to observe Zhuangshen and Harrell first. After reaching the frontcourt, he passed the ball to Zhuangshen. Zhuangshen was eager to show himself, but he was blocked by Noel on the first shot. It's embarrassing to be ashamed.

Meng Yun ran past Zhuangshen and said to him, "It's okay, just be more careful next time and take it easy. This is just team training."

Zhuang Shen nodded and smiled.

In the next round, Meng Yun made a gesture, Zhuang Shen came up to pick and roll, Meng Yun threw off the defender and broke through, Zhuang Shen subconsciously followed up, preparing to grab a rebound, but the basketball suddenly flew out of the crowd and fell into his arms , let him be taken aback.

"Shoot," Coach Atkinson yelled.

"Oh." Zhuang Shen realized that he was already very close to the basket, and there was no need to shoot. It was just a dunk.

Coach Atkinson laughed. Zhuang Shen obviously hasn't adapted yet, and there is a lack of tacit understanding between him and Meng Yun. He didn't expect Meng Yun to pass him, and he didn't think Meng Yun could pass the ball when he was surrounded. He just waited. Trying to grab rebounds, he still can't react when the ball is in his hand.

However, Coach Atkinson couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Zhuang Shen's shortcomings are obvious. He doesn't have the ability to take the ball and attack independently, and he doesn't have three-pointers from the outside. But he is still very lethal inside, but it requires his teammates to pass him To be in place.

This is not a problem for Meng Yun at all, and it can also be reflected in his role in Zhuangshen.

In the next few rounds, Meng Yun deliberately looked for Zhuang Shen, looking for opportunities to send him a wonderful pass, observing Zhuang Shen, he must first understand his teammates, and then know how to cooperate with them.

After a few minutes, Zhuangshen played very relaxed and happy.

Originally, he thought that he would have to change himself to match Meng Yun when he came to the Nets. He didn't have any psychological barriers. After all, although Meng Yun was young, his strength and achievements were there. It was not shameful to play a supporting role for Meng Yun.

But to his surprise, he didn't change himself to cooperate with Meng Yun in the past few minutes. On the contrary, Meng Yun could always pass him a good pass. Create opportunities and be able to give him the ball just right.

Of course, Zhuang Shen didn't think that Meng Yun was trying to curry favor with him and cooperate with him. This was Meng Yun's team, and Meng Yun was the absolute boss, so there was no need for this.

"This is Meng Yun's strength. His breakthrough is too sharp, he can always easily tear apart the opponent's defense, and he can also pass the ball just right, just like feeding meat to his mouth." Zhuang Shen expressed his mood. Pleasure, "It's so comfortable to play with him."

At the same time, Meng Yun also had an understanding of Zhuang Shen.

This kind of understanding is different from what he used to know as an opponent. In the past, what he needed to know as an opponent was how to defeat the opponent and how to score goals on the opponent's head. Now the understanding is to form cooperation with each other and achieve the goal of complementing each other.

Meng Yun never felt that the teammates around him should cooperate with him unconditionally. Basketball is a sport of five people, not him alone.

This is a whole, a team, everyone cooperates with him, then he may play well, but the team may not win.Only when everyone in the team has their own position, their own tasks, and their own technical characteristics can they be considered a team and the strength of the team can be brought into play.

If necessary, Meng Yun will also take the initiative to cooperate with his teammates.

For example, Harris, he is a three-point shooter, and Meng Yun will also find opportunities to make the ball for him, so that he can use his advantages.

The same is true for Zhuang Shen now.

"Shen Zhuang, I already have an understanding, what about Harrell?" Meng Yun looked at Harrell.

As Boss Cai and Coach Atkinson said, people who know a little bit about basketball understand that players like Harrell and Meng Yun are the best partners.

How did Harrell play in the Clippers?
Just to cooperate with Lu Wei, the combination of the "two generals Hum Ha" is very lethal. Lu Wei's personal ability, coupled with Harrell's athletic ability and explosive style of play, seem to be a big killer.

Compared with Zhuangshen, Harrell has a good ability to attack the ball independently, but the offensive range is not large. He mainly relies on low-post singles and breakthroughs within the three-point line, and relies on his explosive physical fitness to score, especially when his teammates attract defense. , When the ball is given to him to form a local one-on-one situation, the offensive success rate is very high.

When he was in the Clippers, it was Lu Wei who cooperated with him. With Lu Wei feeding him the ball, Harrell can often play good data. Last season, he averaged 19 points per game, which was higher than Zhuang Shen.

The Nets have Meng Yun.

Meng Yun is obviously stronger than Lu Wei. Whether it is personal ability, breakthrough or passing, he is better than Lu Wei. It is not 01:30 points, so Meng Yun's advantage in Harrell can be used.

Originally, Harrell was looking for a contract with an annual salary close to 1800 million. One of the reasons why the Nets were able to sign him for 3 million in three years was that Harrell knew that playing with Meng Yun could give full play to his own advantages. One thing is that the Nets have the strength to compete for the championship.

The Nets played extremely well last season. Zhuang Shen joined him this season. Harrell believes that the Nets definitely have the strength to compete for the championship. Everyone does not want to get a championship ring, and Harrell is the same, so He accepted a three-year, $3 million contract from the Nets.

With Zhuang Shen and Harrell joining, the Nets can be regarded as strengthening their shortcomings.
