The giant wheel of time passed the last gully in 2009 and climbed to the Kangzhuang Avenue in 2010. The new year arrived on schedule.

On the first day of the new year, the Cavaliers will face a rivalry with the Eastern Conference's Celtics.

The easy schedule has passed, and later games are not so easy.

Casey was nervously preparing for the match with his team members.

The competition with the rivals in the Eastern District has a great impact on the morale of the team. No one wants to lose such a game.

Tang Tian found that O'Neal had not yet come, and when he was about to go to Cassell, he suddenly found that Green was sitting on the sidelines with a look of frustration.

The team has performed well recently. Both O'Neal and Rashid Wallace have returned to the second spring. Matthews also played Fengshen after entering the starting lineup. The newly traded Louis Williams also regained the most competitive season. The momentum of a good sixth person.

To say that the only downside is probably in front of Green.

Louis Williams is a combo guard, Matthews is also a stronger, more explosive 3D player, and the small forward has James and Artest, two league top ten small forwards, and Green is swinging forward. Man's playing time is naturally compressed.

At the beginning of the season, he averaged about 20 minutes per game and was able to contribute 8 points and 3 rebounds steadily. After the time was reduced to about 15 minutes, it has directly turned into 2 points and 2 rebounds. His poor performance has further reduced his playing time. Now there are only 10 minutes, and the performance is getting worse.

Poor performance, the team's status is getting more and more marginal, it is no wonder he will.

Tang Tian went straight to him.

Green, like Matthews, is part of his future plans, and this is obviously not what he wants to see.

"Danny." He stepped over and shouted.

"Coach!" Green saw Tang Tian and was about to stand up.

Tang Tian motioned him to sit, and then sat next to him.

"What? See you absent?"

"No, it's just that the pet was a bit noisy last night and didn't sleep well." Green squeezed out a small smile.

"Pet, cat?" Tang Tian naturally remembered what McGrady had lied to him before, but it looked like Green wasn't like the kind of person who drew sorrow from alcohol.

"No, two Colombian pythons."

"..."

Tang Tian froze for a while, then remembered that Green was really the owner of pythons, but he was not as famous as the "snake man" Mickey Moore.

But pets are just excuses.

"I have coached a lot of rookies, and they will become frustrated because they don't get playing time and play poorly. DeAndre Jordan, you know?" Tang Tian continued.

"Yes, the Rockets' backup center, he is very strong." Green nodded, the Cavaliers had played against the Rockets before.

"When he was first selected by the team, he was the same as you, but he was more active than you. After he was selected, he asked me why the team chose him. One had not tried for the team and two had not played. Chances, do you know how I answered him in the first place? "

Green looked at Tang Tian in doubt.

"Kobe basically spent the first half of the rookie season on the bench, and Arenas almost sat under the bench for the entire rookie season, but in the end, they have become the league's hottest stars." Tang Tian Say what you said to Little Jordan.

All Green thinks.

"Sit on the bench is not a punishment, but a kind of exercise." Tang Tian said, pointing to the position of his heart, "the exercise of the heart."

After hearing this, Green realized that he was a player with a high IQ, but he got stuck in it for a while. Tang Tian reminded him to let him come out of it.

"Don?" Just then, Cassel called Tang Tian.

Tang Tian saw that Kassel's expression was not so good, and he reached out and patted Green's shoulder: "Be patient, wait for the opportunity, I will not let a person with a good state of effort always sit on the bench."

Green nodded strongly.

Tang Tian got up and walked towards Kassel.

"Shaq has an ankle problem," Cassel whispered.

Tang Tian froze for a while, and then went outside the training hall with Kassel.

"He got up this morning and felt uncomfortable. After arriving at the arena, he went directly to the team doctor. Now the inspection report says that his ankle is inflamed. It is estimated that it will take about a week off."

Tang Tian frowned.

"Shaq is 37 years old after all, only 3 years younger than me," Kassel continued.

Tang Tian nodded after listening.

O'Neal basically didn't train when he was young. He played on the rampage with his talents. Now that he is older and his weight is up, it is normal for his ankles to be unbearable.

Speaking of previous life O'Neal was forced to retire due to a serious ankle injury.

Truce is only a week now, and it should be a blessing in misfortune.

"Sam, call the coaching staff when the training is over, we have a temporary meeting." Tang Tian continued.

At the beginning of the season, because he was running away, he deliberately recruited these well-known veterans. At the time, he also factored in injuries.

It's just that now that the plan is changed, even if the intention is to reduce the playing time of the veteran, the injury has not escaped.

But it also reminded him.

Although these veterans still have fuel in the fuel tank, they are still efficient in a reasonable playing time, but after all they are approaching the age of retirement, it is best to keep these oils until the playoffs.

"We need to further reduce the veteran's playing time. It is best to keep it in a state that can reduce injuries like Shaq. It also gives young players like Green more exercise time. The victory or defeat is not for us. First important. "

In the interim meeting, Tang Tian focused on this issue.

Casey and Kassel both agree ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ As brain coaches, they are well aware that the Cavaliers can play in the playoffs, and if the goal is the championship, those opponents must win each The ranking is not important.

At the start of the night, O'Neal was missed due to injury, and Rashid Wallace disappeared from the starting lineup.

A combination of Frye, Anderson, James, Matthews and Beverly, all young players start.

At first glance, this lineup is the same as the bad lineup at the start of the game, but after playing, the young players' performance is much tougher than at the beginning of the season.

After all, the two-month game was not played in vain, let alone Tang Tianzai. The Cavaliers' daily training is more effective.

In the end, these young Cavaliers played three and a half quarters with the Celtics. In the end, though, they lost the momentum of the team.

Of course, Tang Tian is most pleased with Green's play.

A word before the game, let this top 3D put down the burden, scored 12 points and 6 rebounds in 15 minutes of playing time, the performance is quite outstanding.
