Chapter 757 Who Is the Coach?

It has not been a day or two for Mike Brown to put gold on his face, and even he himself believed it after posting it.

But this time, Brown didn't completely lie. Xia Brown kept in touch with Li Liang, and basically they would talk on the phone once a week.

Brown will remind Li Liang that he must focus on improving his inside skills and enhance the three-dimensionality of his offense.

"It allows you to play with less effort in the regular game, and at the same time has long-term benefits for your career development."

This is what Brown told Li Liang. He also really loves Li Liang, and he has seriously considered all aspects.

He believes that Li Liang's scoring explosiveness is rare in the world, especially in the playoffs and finals, with his magical three-pointers and super touch.

Therefore, Li Liang's overall battery life can be further improved and stabilized, so that his overall state can be steadily improved, especially in the future to cope with the long regular season and possible injuries.

Of course, Brown didn't know that it was impossible for Li Liang to be injured, and that his explosive power mainly relied on props.

However, Brown's opinion is very beneficial. Brown believes that Li Liang can become a unique player in NBA history with the best combination of inside and outside. He guides Li Liang with such a heart.

So when Li Liang chose the "Ma Long template", he also referred to Brown's opinion.

For Brown's rhetoric, Li Liang agreed. It is indeed Coach Brown's guidance, which is profound and connotative.

This puts a lot of pressure on Thunder coach Donovan, and his hairline may be a little higher this season.

You might as well learn from Mike Brown, forget about the bald head, it will make you stronger.

The Thunder's training camp is in full swing. With the arrival of Li Liang, this team has received unprecedented attention.

Several heavyweight media stationed the best team of reporters in Oklahoma City, and deployed excellent columnists, and began to pay attention to the situation of the new Big Three combination from the training camp.

Judging from the external situation, it is of course harmonious. Li Liang accepts interviews and participates in training every day as usual.

He was also invited by the local media in Oklahoma City to participate in some community activities and appear on TV shows. Even the mayor invited Li Liang to attend the inauguration ceremony of the new Oklahoma City Hall, and warmly welcomed Li Liang's arrival.

As time went on, slowly into October, the preseason approached, people found something.

For example, Kevin Durant appeared less and less frequently in the media, newspapers, and websites that day.

For example, the reporters found that Westbrook and Li Liang were often interviewed together, but Durant became a lot more alone.

For example, so far, the media have not taken a picture of Li Liang and Durant in the same frame.

Either on the court together, or with Westbrook together, in short, the two of them don't seem to have much intersection.

Li Liang doesn't care, anyway, I'm better than you, what do you like, can I still coax you?

Durant's personality is obviously different from that of James. Although James was quite upset by being hammered by Li Liang for three consecutive years, the relationship between the two of them is quite good in private. Sometimes they will text and call to discuss basketball issues.

Guidance Gan seriously pointed out James, saying that he was too bad for three-pointers, "You can't shoot three-pointers, I advise you to practice more ultra-long three-pointers, so that you can have a reason for not scoring."

What the fuck is a brilliant suggestion.

Durant is different. Originally, he was the most concerned person in Oklahoma City and the basketball hero of Oklahoma City.

You know, the Thunder is the only major league team in Oklahoma. Before the Supersonics moved to the Thunder, enthusiastic Oklahoma fans could only support the college basketball team.

Durant and Westbrook have been growing along with the establishment of the team, and his symbolic significance here is extraordinary.

Or, he thought he was extraordinary, and it turned out...

Turn on the phone, look at Twitter, INS, and those sports reporters who used to follow are showing the news of Bruce Lee.

They are proud of the few words they interviewed with Bruce Lee. They spare no effort to dig out the various characteristics and gossip of the star, and pay attention to his every move.

No way, who made him a winner, a real winner.

Even if everyone knew that this guy would probably only stay in Oklahoma City for a year or two, he would still be offered as a treasure.

In fact, this is because Durant's mind is not clear. It is precisely because everyone knows that he will only stay for one year, so he is a treasure and seizes the time to collect wool.

Anyway, Durant felt that he was left out, not respected, and emotional.

For nearly two weeks of training time, Durant remained silent most of the time and rarely accepted interviews with reporters.

However, his daily training time is getting longer, and after the team's training, he has to stay and practice until dark.

Only Westbrook was with him. As for...he started to be late since the third day of training camp.

Mike Brown said again, this is Bruce Lee's routine, don't worry, he is late, it means he is training hard.

Donovan didn't know where the logic was, but Brown said so, so he had to listen. Who made him have the most experience in coaching Li Liang?

And what Li Liang is doing, of course, is doing a task.

Although he has completed the training of the "Ma Long template", Li Liang still has a few tasks that he set for himself that have not been completed.

One is related to tactics. In the system, I studied UCLA's tactical system with Wooden and Sloan. This course is quite long and the content is quite rich.

During the class tasks, Coach Wooden's guidance was very meticulous, which made Li Liang wonder, did the system want him to be a coach?

It's not impossible. Li Liang thinks that if Mike Brown can be a coach, then he can do it too.

At that time, he will be the head coach, Mike Brown will be the assistant coach, and he will direct Mike Brown remotely. Isn't this coach easy to be?

Of course, Li Liang is just thinking about it, and has no interest in it yet.

Another one is related to the body. Li Liang has entered a bottleneck stage for the positioning of the basket, the training of the muscles of the back and the waist.

With the help of the "Malon template" before, it was easy to pass the "Anthony Mason" pass, and then he was sent to Otis Thorpe, the top blue-collar partner of the Rockets and Olajuwon in 1994 Power Forward.

Although Mason has a big butt, he is the height of a small forward after all. Li Liang can still overcome it if he thinks of a way.

And Thorpe is a solid 2.8 meters. The power forward is tall and heavy, and his positioning skills at the basket are very good.

When Li Liang played in the 1994 Western Conference Finals, it was very uncomfortable to play against Thorpe, and he used three-pointers to mobilize him.

Confronting him head-on now, one can imagine the physical and energy consumption.

However, in order to raise his basket position to the level of 80, Li Liang also worked hard.

He hopes to be in place in one step before the start of the new season, so that he can truly be an excellent power forward.

Combined with his small forward's offensive ability and pretty good organizational ability, he will definitely be able to inject great vitality into the Thunder.

At the same time, it can also take care of Durant in terms of play, so as not to squeeze his ball and tactical space too much.

From this point of view, Li Liang is much more generous than Durant.

But it doesn't matter, Li Liang has forgiven Durant, who made you a little handsome.

...

Time passed quickly, and Durant's mind was not so small. In late September, the relationship between Li Liang and his teammates became more and more harmonious.

The Thunder's team atmosphere is indeed very good. There are many young players, most of whom are drafted slowly by the management, and there are relatively few moths.

There are no old players of that kind, and there are not many players with tattoos on the team.

The main ones with tattoos are Adams and Waiters.

Everyone gradually discovered that Li Liang was the perfect teammate and leader.

Although he swears a lot during the training and is shamelessly late, his contagion and leadership are really strong.

With three rings in his hand, shooting all over the league is really not covered.

Durant also slowly discovered that Li Liang did not occupy his position in the tactical training.

On the contrary, he perfectly filled the vacancy left by Ibaka's departure, and greatly enriched the team's offensive and defensive routines.

Moreover, he treats people with enthusiasm and has no airs at all. At this time, Durant is still posing, which is too unreasonable.

Durant is not bad, in fact he is very simple.

As for Donovan's tactical board, it feels a bit out of order. In the new season, he doesn't know what tactics to focus on.

At this time, Mike Brown, as an experienced champion coach, told Donovan, "However you arrange it, Bruce will always find a way to adapt, and then help you improve the system better."

Just so confident, Donovan has some doubts, who is the coach, Mike Brown, you or Bruce Lee?
