After hearing Deng Fang’s words, all the reporters were elated!
Regardless of whether what Deng Fang said is credible or not, this is still big news.
Anyway, I didn’t make it up myself.
Then if there is a problem, you don’t have to look for fault!
Deng Fang prepared the cauldron himself!
That's good!
This is what we want!
A head coach like Deng Fang is so lovable!
Of course, the "people" here mainly refer to journalist friends.
Some reporters didn't give up and continued to fan the flames: "James won the MVP last season. His statistics so far this season are quite good, averaging 30 points, 9 assists, and 7 rebounds per game. Only Curry can compare with him.
Who do you think is more powerful in the next face-to-face showdown between the two?"
"Of course it's Curry!" Deng Fang replied: "Curry is better than James in all aspects of offensive skills, especially shooting."
"Isn't James great?"
"James is indeed powerful, but he has obvious weaknesses."
"What's the weakness?" the reporter asked.
"The shooting is not good and he relies too much on the referees." Deng Fang replied: "His three-pointers are unreliable. In addition, many of James' layups are walking."
"But James rarely gets blown away!"
"He is a prominent figure in the league, and he will be treated the same as ordinary players?!" Deng Fang shrugged and said: "Others can only take two steps for a three-step layup, but James can take six steps without any problem! If not, every game
He must add at least three more mistakes in the game!"
"Why are you so sure?"
"If you don't believe me, let's watch the next game!" Deng Fang replied: "James will walk at least 5 times in the next game! Otherwise, I will donate 100,000 US dollars!"
The reporters' eyes lit up.
Another topic!
Deng Fang is so awesome that he always bets with real money!
The key is that he never shy away from his likes and dislikes.
If you like it, brag about it, if you don't like it, just despise it!
Even if other coaches have different opinions, they often speak in a very cryptic way.
More of them are milk opponents!
Big jugs of milk!
James is awesome!
Defending him is a problem!
James is a role model and a perfect player.
…
What a great coach like Deng Fang!
No need to look for topics.
Every word he said was a topic!
Of course, Deng Fang also took great risks by speaking like this.
If you belittle your opponent so unscrupulously, anyone else would fight you!
Beyond that, it's a loss of money.
How can you often walk by the river without getting your shoes wet?
If you always bet with real money, you will definitely lose sometimes!
If you lose, you have to pay money!
This is not a private chat between friends.
There are also fines from the league.
Deng Fang said explicitly and implicitly that the referees treated James preferentially, and the league would definitely not let it go.
It doesn't matter if you ignore Deng Fang.
What he said is the truth, and he has a clear conscience!
In addition, speaking out is also good for the team to win.
Deng Fang clearly pointed out the problem of James' walking privileges before the game, even at the expense of being fined by the league. The referees must pay attention to it in the next game and restrain themselves!
What should be blown should probably be blown!
In the past, others blew it in three moves, but James didn't blow it in six moves.
Now that James doesn't brag even if he takes three steps, he should hesitate after taking four steps, right?
You have to blow it after taking five steps, right?
Even if the referee still doesn't call it, James will have to murmur in his heart when he attacks with the ball, right?
How can I say that I am also a public figure, the face of the league, and let people make irresponsible remarks in front of the media, but I still keep making mistakes during the game and giving people an excuse, then how can I still hang out in the league in the future?
If the alliance wants to support you, you have to work hard too!
At least not for everyone to see:
The alliance is supporting you!
The referee here is different from others!
Part of your strength is because of the referee!
As long as James hesitates and mutters in his mind when dribbling, that's enough!
Because he does have this problem, but no one usually pays that much attention to it.
If you really don't move and don't have privileged treatment, then whether you can rush to the inside unimpeded or not is a question.
Even if he breaks into the paint, many of the fouls that may or may not be committed are probably gone!
Then do you want to rush in?
This is a problem.
Why don't you rush in?
Throwing up threes from outside?
It's better for me to admit defeat directly!
Not even to death!
This is enough!
As soon as the opponent's general hesitates, your opportunity will come!
Some reporters thought the matter was not big enough and continued to fan the flames: "What about Curry's inferiority to James?"
"Physical fitness, James' physical fitness is incredible, which makes him very good on the defensive end, and he can switch to every defensive position with ease."
"You said that, wouldn't James be more suitable to be a blue-collar worker?"
"That's not the case. Being a star player is no problem."
…
OK, fine.
Your evaluation is quite high...
"As a tall forward, don't you think James' dribbling skills are very skillful?" Some reporters were dissatisfied and opened up a new battlefield.
"His dribbling is indeed good, but I don't appreciate it."
"Why?"
"Does anyone appreciate the crab walk? If you can, then I admire you!" Deng Fang asked rhetorically.
…
The reporter has nothing to say
"James has repeatedly performed unbelievably in several games this season. Can you restrain him in the next game?"
"Of course, no problem!" Deng Fang replied: "With James' shooting level, he won't score more than 10 points!"
It seems that James is much better than Jennings!
At least Deng Fang didn't dare to say 5 points...
"What if James' touch explodes?"
"Then..." Deng Fang hesitated for a moment.
Indeed, this is a problem.
James' shooting skills at this time are indeed not very good, but he is different from Jennings.
Defending Jennings can neither let him burst in nor give him a good shooting opportunity.
But James can't.
With his height and weight, coupled with his breakthrough threat, it will be difficult for you to interfere with his shooting.
After all, James' breakthrough threat is too great.
"Even if James feels great, we are not afraid." Deng Fang replied: "Because we have Curry! No matter how many points James scores, Curry will be ten points more than James!"
The reporters were stunned again.
No matter how many points James scores?
What if James scores 50 points?
Then Curry will score 60 points!
For a star player like James, you never know when he will feel great.
Unlike role players, star players have enough shooting opportunities. As long as they feel good, they can keep shooting!
The same cannot be said for role players. You only have so many shooting opportunities. Even if your hand is incredible, it is impossible to get enough shooting opportunities.
What should you do if the boss doesn't pass the ball to you?
What should you do if you don’t have the ball in your hand when your opponent is on tight defense?
What if the coach is stubborn and will replace you when the time comes?
Therefore, it is easy to limit the scoring of role players, but it is difficult to limit the scoring of star players.
After all, you don't know which side your luck will be on today.
…
Not surprisingly, the front pages of all major sports media after the game were all about Deng Fang and James:
"The Warriors will beat the Cavaliers by 40 points? Deng Fang made wild remarks again!"
"Supernova vs. MVP, Deng Fang wants to prevent James from scoring in double figures!"
"James is only suitable to be a blue-collar worker? The Warriors coach bluntly said he doesn't like the league's top figures!"
"James will definitely leave next year if he changes careers? Where will the league's reputation go?"
"Loyalty has nothing to do with James. The Warriors coach made a five million bet and flatly denied that James is leaving the Cavaliers!"
"James became a superstar entirely because of the league's special treatment? It turns out that the six-step layup is his patent!"
"Deng Fang bet 100,000: James will walk more than 5 times in the next game!"
