NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 310 311. Outside Public Opinion (Fourth Update)
Relying on Iverson's desperate style of play, the Bobcats also ushered in a collapse in the final quarter.

Faced with Iverson's breakthrough, the Bobcats could choose to foul him, which directly led to Iverson standing on the free throw line many times.

In the end, the Bobcats had no choice but to suffer this defeat in the away game, and also ushered in the first two-game losing streak since the beginning of the season.

…………

April 11

The time has entered November, and in the five games in October, the Bobcats have achieved a record of two wins and three losses.

For people's expectations, this record can be said to be completely lower than people's expectations.

After all, the Bobcats last season, but the biggest dark horse in the league, caused a lot of trouble for the Pistons in the semifinals.

With the strengthening of this season, in people's impression, the Bobcats should become stronger, but the effect shown now is that the whole team is really struggling.

In those two games with the Wizards and the 76ers, one thing is the same, that is, the Bobcats ushered in a collapse in the final quarter.

Once Joe Johnson was taken care of by the opposite side, the rest of the team eventually collectively missed.

If last season, the Bobcats did not have a particularly good offensive player, every player on the offensive end seems to be involved in the offense.

But with the addition of an offensive star, Joe Johnson, other Bobcats players seem to be only able to catch and shoot on the offensive end, lacking the agility of last season.

This also caused many experts to criticize Joe Johnson, thinking that he is a cancer player, because his joining also destroyed the original rhythm of the Bobcats.

As for the people who eat melons, their ideas are most likely to be swayed and instigated by others. After listening to experts, more and more people on the Internet began to personally attack Joe Johnson.

I think that his joining not only did not make the Bobcats better, but destroyed the original atmosphere of the Bobcats.

All the responsibility for the Bobcats' loss was shirked on Joe Johnson.

"Don't listen to what the outside world says. It's just that the Bobcats' personnel changes in the past two years have been too fast. In addition, they are mainly new players. It takes a long time to adapt."

"And your joining has definitely greatly improved the Bobcats' offense. At least at the critical moment, the Bobcats can have a backbone. The loss is mainly my responsibility, so don't take it too seriously."

In the arena, Liu Rui also said to Joe Johnson, who was doing shooting training.

Joe Johnson crazily practiced his shooting during the two days off.

And took the initiative to find Wallace for one-on-one training.

Seeing Joe Johnson's desperate training, Liu Rui also knew that the remarks from the outside world must have had some influence on Joe Johnson.

As the training intensity increased, Liu Rui also worried that Joe Johnson's body would have problems during this intensive schedule, so he also reminded him.

As for the outside world's remarks, of course, those so-called bullshit experts are making rumors indiscriminately.

Although the joining of Joe Johnson will definitely change the offensive style of the Bobcats, because the Bobcats' offensive end last season did not have a particularly clear main offensive point.

Liu Rui often sends out a three-back lineup of Stoudemire, Mo Williams and Kevin Martin.

When these three hold the ball, whoever has a better chance will take the ball and make a breakthrough.

After Joe Johnson arrived, the team also clarified the offensive point at the critical moment.

This kind of offensive change will definitely require the cooperation of other players, and there will inevitably be a process of running-in.

Although Liu Rui also felt helpless in the team's losing streak, he didn't take it too seriously.

Because Liu Rui is at least a little firm in his heart, that is, this Bobcats team will get better and better.

But Liu Rui didn't feel anxious yet, but the outside experts started to worry instead, and couldn't sit still one by one, as if they wanted to put eye drops on Bobcat.

Really the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry.

"Phew~, don't worry, coach, these remarks did not knock me down so easily, I just want to work hard to prove that I will definitely lead the Bobcats better and better."

"At least one thing they said is correct. The loss of the Bobcats has a lot to do with me. If I can become stronger, then we will not lose the game against the 76ers."

Hearing Liu Rui's words, Qiao Johnson turned his head and looked at Liu Rui with extremely firm eyes.

Looking at Qiao Johnson in front of him, Liu Rui also shook his head helplessly. He is really a strong guy.

In the game against the 76ers, the final quarter relied on Iverson's excellent performance, and the 76ers finally narrowly beat the Bobcats.

And Joe Johnson faced double-teaming many times under the key marking of the 76ers, and his teammates failed to provide timely support, which led to the Bobcats finally being reversed by the 76ers.

As the 76ers Iguodala matured, it also caused a lot of trouble for Joe Johnson on the defensive end.

Joe Johnson, who took the overall situation into consideration, did not blindly choose singles, but transferred the ball to teammates with better opportunities.

It's just a pity that when faced with the opportunity, others failed to grasp it, which also made Joe Johnson feel a little guilty.

Now, coupled with these remarks from the outside world, Joe Johnson started to train like a life.

"Hey, Joe, I know this is your basketball philosophy, and I don't intend to change anything, but I just want to say that even Jordan has experienced a lot of setbacks before finally winning the championship."

"Sometimes we face failure, not because we are not good enough, but because we are getting better."

"I don't know if you will understand the meaning of this sentence, but I can only say that the future belongs to us."

Liu Rui patted Joe Johnson on the shoulder with a smile, turned and left.

Everyone is smart, so he will naturally understand what Liu Rui means.

If Joe Johnson really doesn't understand, it's just that he doesn't want to understand, not that he really doesn't understand.

Let Montgomery, Cole and others take the players to continue training, and Liu Rui came to the general manager's office.

This is the second time that Liu Rui has seen Smith since the start of the competition.

"Do you want to ask me about the team's recent situation again? I can only say that there are too many rookies, so this must be a process to go through. As for the outside world's remarks, you won't believe it?!"

As soon as he entered the room, before Smith could speak, Liu Rui spoke first.

Familiar with him, he sat on the sofa, picked up the tea next to him without any politeness, and poured himself a cup first.

After all, after careful calculation, Liu Rui has indeed not had Smith's tea for a long time...

　The fourth change, this time it is really gone, ask for a monthly ticket!

　　Alas, as expected, I was working hard, and the code words were inconvenient. I originally planned to do two more chapters. Later, when the second elder fell asleep, I still couldn’t help getting up and coded two more chapters in the dark...
