Roy scored 4 of 11 three-point goals in the first half, 3 of 8 in the second half, and 7 of 19 in the whole game. The hit rate was not high.
But it's a good two-point shot, three of four, four free throws on the outside, so Roy scored 31 points tonight.
In total, Roy made 23 shots tonight and scored 31 points. In fact, Richard was very satisfied with the efficiency of the attack.
As for Oden and Paul, Richard gave them enough time.
O'Neal played 25 minutes tonight, and Oden came on the court in the remaining 23 minutes with 8 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks.
The goal of Orden intermediate God creation task is the best sixth person and the king of hit rate.
It's not too hard for Oden to be the king of hit rate. Richard told him to try to improve his hit rate when he met a weak chicken, while when he met Carman, who has something on his hand, he tried to make fewer shots and focus on rebounding and defense.
Tonight Oden's score is relatively small, only eight points into the account, but the hit rate is very frightening, 5 of 4 hit rate!
As for the honor of the best sixth man, Richard thought that if Oden could finally play the data of 14 + 8 + 1 as a substitute this season, he would almost surely get the best sixth man.
……
As for Paul, Richard didn't influence him. He asked him to play at his normal pace and play as he should.
The only thing Richard has to do is to improve Paul's playing time so that he can get as much data as possible.
Last season Paul averaged about 30 minutes, while this season Richard was promoted to 35 minutes.
Rondo has no complaints. After all, he knows Richard's little secret, that is, Paul will be traded at the end of this season.
As for Sun Yue, the third control guard, he can't be dissatisfied
Sun Yue is not a very aggressive player. He may not be as aggressive as Yi Jianlian.
It's hard to hear that he just muddled along. As long as he can stand firm in the NBA and get the guarantee contract, he will be more satisfied.
At present, he is quite clear about the situation of the pirate team. Even if there are Paul and Rondo in front of him, he can't have a chance to show off.
At present, he feels that the only thing he has to do is to endure loneliness and endure it
Although I was selected in the 29th place, I was also a first round show. I signed a four-year contract with the pirates.
After the four-year contract, as long as he doesn't die and talk big, Richard will definitely renew his contract, although there is a great possibility that his salary is the base salary
But even if it's the base salary, it's better to stay in the NBA than to play in China.
Playing in the NBA, that fame and playing in China is not the same thing at all, which can make Sun Yue get many off-site endorsement contracts, how much more than in China.
Now the goal Sun Yue has set for herself is to survive and try to survive to the first day.
Even if I can't make it to the end of my career, I won't lose it anyway
……
After the game, Richard led the team back to the hotel.
Brandt's injury is not clear at the moment. It's estimated that the Clippers will declare his injury tomorrow, and he will not go to make trouble tonight.
However, after returning to the hotel, Richard got another piece of bad news.
Tonight the king and the heat also had a game, Rahim in this game tibia fracture, injury is extremely serious!
Richard sighed, today is really a bad day, two consecutive West Lafayette players suffered serious injuries.
Although brand's injury is unknown, Richard has a hunch that in nine out of ten it will be the season.
Rahim is worse
If Richard remembers correctly, Rahim retired at the end of the season.
He's in the same situation as brand, who suffered serious injuries after a few games at the start of the season and then lost his money for the season.
With Brandt back in the League after his injury, Rahim is not so lucky. He is facing a complete withdrawal from the league.
……
Next, the last away game, the opponent is the Golden State Warriors led by old Nelson.
The result is naturally easy to win, warriors in the black eight Mavericks, it is a period of time, but due to the limitations of the team, they have been unable to rush to the first half of the western region, and this season may be worse, they may not even enter the playoffs.
……
After the start of the game, the pirates played seven games and kept winning.
If we only win seven games at the beginning, it will be difficult to achieve this, but we can have such a start every few years.
Now the key is that the pirates are all hanging opponents, which is quite remarkable.Looking at the pirate team's game, we can't see any anxiety at all. In every game, the pirate team is in an absolute leading position. The only thing the opponent can do is not let himself lose so badly.
……
Richard is quite satisfied with such a start, but these seven opponents are relatively weak, and the game that can really test the gold content of the pirate team has not appeared.
As soon as he led the team back to Charlotte, Richard heard a piece of news that surprised him.
The king is ready to buy Rahim's contract
Rahim's injury has been identified, not only the season reimbursement, even if the injury is back, it must be difficult to play before the state.
However, Rahim was already a substitute for the kings before he was injured. In this case, it is the best choice for the kings to buy Rahim's contract.
After the news that Dalglish was ready to buy Rahim was released, Richard was also watching to see if any team was interested in Rahim.
It turned out to be sad and no team showed a willingness to accept Rahim.
Rahim basically has no value left now. He is a player who is strong in attack and weak in defence. In recent years, his condition has declined so much that he can't even attack skillfully.
Now with this kind of injury, how could a team be interested in him.
Richard immediately called Rahim for the simple reason that he wanted to sign Rahim and take Rahim to taste the taste of the championship.
Rahim can be said to be the first West Lafayette players, when he and Richard entered the League at the same time.
From a talented forward of the new National People's Congress to the current situation of no one's attention, Richard was a little sad about Rahim's encounter.
But now, I have the conditions to accept Rahim, and I can also let Rahim add a championship ring by the way.
"What's up with the king's management, man?" Richard called Rahim for information.
"The situation is not good. They are willing to pay too little for the buyout..." Rahim said with a wry smile.
Richard nodded. Rahim joined the king in 2005. At that time, the contract signed with the king was 32 million in five years, which was a relatively cheap contract.
The current contract is less than three years old. This season and the next two seasons, Kenny Dalglish still has to pay Rahim's salary.
Without the former "Alan Houston rule", Rahim would not have to worry as much as he does now. He could have refused the king's offer.
The so-called Alan Houston rule was just a rule on buyout issued by the league in the summer of 2005.
Any team has the right to compulsorily buy out the contract of any player in the team, which is the main content of Alan Houston Law.
In other words, before the rule was introduced, the team had no right to buy out the player's contract unilaterally. Now they have the right to force the buy out because of the rule.
But even with the right of forced buyout, the king also wants to have a good talk with Rahim. They want to avoid the full buyout and want Rahim to reduce the price
Rahim is not a fool. Naturally, he can't agree. If you want to kill my career, I will save money for you? No such good thing.
As a result, the matter of buyout fell into a deadlock.
"Well, let's finish earlier."
"When you're done with the king, call me and join the team at any time, man. We're going to fight together again." Said Richard with a smile.
Rahim is stunned and ready to join the team?
For a moment he didn't respond. After a pause, he understood Richard's meaning.
"Coach, do you mean I can join the pirates?" Rahim's voice was full of excitement.
He is very aware of his strength at the moment and it is almost impossible for a team to sign him.
Now Richard extended an olive branch to him, which means that he will have a chance to taste the taste of the championship!
In the eyes of the outside world, the chances of winning the championship are too big. When Rahim learned that the king wanted to buy himself out, he thought about whether he could join the pirates and get a championship ring before he retired.
But he didn't have a good time talking to Richard about it. Now Richard takes the initiative and Rahim is not excited.
"Don't worry, coach. I'll work it out as soon as possible."
……
After hanging up the phone with Rahim, Richard took a long breath. The old brother is back to play under his own hands again. It's a wonderful feeling.
Although Rahim will not make much contribution on the court now, Richard doesn't expect Rahim to lead the team to win, he just wants to fulfill his original promise.
When they can't get along in the league, Richard will always have their place here.
