The Whip of the God of Basketball

　　 Leon learned the two most useful things in the training camp of the University of Southern California, one is discipline, the same is freedom.

The former was taught to him by the old Bibby. During his internship at the University of Southern California, the work that the old Bibby gave Leon most was to make plans, arrange player training and even assess the players’ lifestyle. These seem to be Leftover work has given Leon a lot of work experience. Although the old Bibby is not a good father, but he is a good coach with strict demeanor, which makes the Trojans, a team with not outstanding talents, have a strong combat effectiveness.

The latter was given to Leon by the old Professor Winter. Although Winter is famous for his triangle offense, in a few weeks Winter has never instilled specific tactics of the triangle offense into Leon, but constantly Discuss the basketball offensive philosophy with Leon and the basic laws of tactics. Winter believes that a set of basketball tactics is by no means a planned roadmap for players, but rather to give players full freedom to reflect their court value within the established framework.

　　 These are two diametrically opposed concepts. One is applied off the court and the other is reflected on the court, which inspires Leon a lot. But when he wanted to put these ideas into practice and apply them to the Celtics, he found that everything was not so feasible.

　　 In early October 2001, a few days before the preseason, the Celtics' training camp was held in Waltham again. The Celtics, who had gone through trades and draft picks, once again ushered in major changes in personnel. Once the old oil guard Anderson has left Memphis, the team has joined three new young players, the average age of the team has dropped again, and become a veritable youth army. However, the Celtics did not hold an adaptive training camp for young people in August and September. Owner Gaston was unwilling to pay more for a training camp because he was about to sell the team. Even their press conference was a bit shabby. , Just a random number unveiling ceremony was held in North Shore Garden.

So when most people arrived at the training hall at 8:30 in the morning, the hall was a bit deserted. Everyone didn’t say anything. The three young men were naturally dull. The old players chatted to themselves, and the trainer and assistant coach were silent. The ground is preparing training equipment. O'Brien came early, but he was talking to Vogel all morning, regardless of the players. And Dennis Rodman hasn't arrived yet.

Leon changed his clothes and appeared on the court with a folder board in his hand. There was a training plan on it. From the beginning of this season, Vogel will be promoted from training assistant coach to team offensive tactics coach. He has Have the qualifications and ability to advise O'Brien. The team's video editing work is mainly handed over to Jimmy Young, while Leon has to share the work content of Vogel's past training plan. He needs to analyze the video results compiled by Jimmy Young, share the analysis results with the coach and players to find out the problems, and make targeted rectifications during training.

　　Because today is the first day of the training camp, the assistant coach’s work is not heavy, there are not many videos to organize, and Leon’s training plan is not targeted. They are all simple and basic training content. Leon looked at the lazy atmosphere of the players in the stadium, his brows were frowning, but O'Brien did not speak, and he did not want to go on his behalf. A coaching meeting was about to be held. Leon felt that O'Brien should resume after the meeting. Tune the players.

The coaching meeting is a small exchange meeting between the coaching staff and the trainers before each training. At the exchange meeting, the head coach will arrange the video, training plan, various questions, and the content to be carried out today, and exchange with the assistants. Opinions, determine the training goals and directions for today or in the near future, and lay a good start for everything.

When he was a scout before, Leon also participated in such a small coaching meeting, but he was not qualified to give opinions on the training content and goals at the meeting. His main responsibility is to analyze and evaluate the problems of certain players and give some suggestions for improvement. , Has no say in the direction of the entire team. Now as a training assistant coach, his responsibilities and powers are much greater. As long as it is related to the training content, he must participate.

　　 At 8:45, O'Brien looked at his watch and called the coaching staff to the physiotherapy room in the locker room. Today's small meeting was held here. Because it was the first day, O'Brien and every member of the coaching staff chatted about summer fun, such as Vogel back to Kentucky to participate in a baseball game, Hart went to Washington to witness the National Day parade, of course they must have talked about the terrible 9/11 incident , And then Michael Jordan's comeback.

"That guy named Wojnarowski has become famous. He predicted that Jordan would come back for the second time a few days after 9/11. At that time, many people thought it was a fantasy. How could I know that after a few weeks, Jordan Just really say'I'm back.'" The team's sports injury protectionist Ed Reisert said when talking about the topic of 911. In September, Wojnarowski finally trusted Leon. Before any news came out, he directly broke the news that Michael Jordan would come back for the second time, and it was finally confirmed. Jordan officially returned on September 25 and joined the Wizards as a free agent. This made Wojnarowski, who was still unknown at the time, emerged because of this incident and began to receive the attention of sports media.

"That guy's name is really hard to remember. In the impression he is Leon's friend and a member of the Development League scout team." Vogel said. During the New York draft, Vogel learned of Leon and Voy. Narovsky's relationship, and was impressed by the ups and downs of the two during the draft.

Leon just nodded. His mind is not on these gossips. He holds today's training plan in his hand. This is based on a large amount of video materials, data analysis, and personal experience when he returned to Boston. The opinion of Auerbach. Of course, he did not discuss with O'Brien before, so he wanted to take the opportunity of the coaching meeting to communicate with O'Brien, and hope to provide some advice on the team's tactical direction.

"Well, that's the end of the gossip, put your mind on training. Leon, show me your training plan. You should show it to me earlier instead of waiting until the training camp is about to start." Ryan said that he took the folder board in Leon's hand and complained in his mouth. Leon wanted to talk a few times to make an appointment with O'Brien to talk about this issue, but O'Brien had been in Orlando some time ago, and only returned to Boston when the preseason was about to start. The two had no chance to communicate. .

O'Brien flipped through a few pages of Leon’s training plan, which included not only today’s training content, but also the team’s training and tactical direction settings throughout the season. The content is very detailed, not only with concise and clear text, but also Supported by various charts, it can be said to be a very good training guide. As long as the specific situation of the team is practical, using such a training plan will be of great help to the team.

However, O’Brien just glanced briefly, threw the training plan on the player’s massage table, and said: “This is a good plan, but I think you play against the Celtics. , The player configuration is not well understood. We will not play fast, offensive tactics, but continue to strengthen the defense, in the offensive to improve efficiency rather than speed, this is the right path for a team to rejuvenate. Fortunately, I am here. There is also a backup training plan. Today we will train according to this plan. The intensity will not be too high. After the pre-season officially starts ~www.NovelMTL.com~ we will practice more fully."

Speaking, O’Brien pulled out a few pages from his folder board and handed it to Leon. There are plans made by O’Brien who stayed up late these days. You must know that he was Pitino’s assistant coach in the past, O’Brien Also responsible for team training.

O'Brien's words made the atmosphere of the conference room drop from the joyfulness just now to freezing point. Everyone can see that O'Brien didn't want to adopt Leon's opinion, and the method used was very simple and rude, half commanded. Way to get Leon to adopt his plan.

　　 After Leon came to the Celtics, all the staff including the players had the same impression of him: This guy is very good, but I don’t know why I’m a little afraid of him. Danny Angie is no exception.

　　 So when O'Brien finished speaking and passed the plan in his hand to Leon, everyone's breathing can be heard quietly in the physiotherapy room. Leon’s face is naturally not pretty, and O’Brien also looked a little nervous. Everyone knows the story of this guy. He knocked Cili over and got Rodman in Sydney. Now they are afraid that Leon will punch. Fly O'Brien into the spa.

Silence lasted for three seconds. Leon reached out and took back the folder board that was thrown on the physiotherapy bed. Then he clipped the plan book O'Brien had given him, licked his lips and said, "I know, I will Use your training plan. But I think it’s necessary to clean up the discipline of the team, otherwise the players don’t want to play according to your settings, then it’s terrible~www.NovelMTL.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read.
