0134 Who is recognized?

After the timeout, Nash intends to increase the number of singles, making as many as six shots in three minutes. Not only did he hit 4 shots, but he also made 2 assists. However, the holes in both ends of the Suns' offense and defense are too big, and his full orange shooting hot zone is difficult to fill.

As Westbrook scores, assists and rebounds grows, the Thunder firmly grasps the lead.

After the four quarters, the Thunder defeated the Suns 117-103, achieving a five-game winning streak for the second time in the season.

In the whole game, Westbrook scored 22 points, 14 assists and 10 rebounds, successfully completing the triple-double challenge.

At the post-match press conference, Su Yang praised Westbrook: "In the game, Russell can be said to be omnipotent in everything. He will definitely surpass Robertson and be promoted to the representative of the all-round player in the new era in the future."

TNT reporter asked: "At present, fans and media recognize LeBron James is the most versatile player, with more triple-doubles, and seems to be more qualified to be called an all-round player representative. How is Russell different from him?"

"Who recognizes it?"

Su Yang smiled and said: "Russell's triple-double is more difficult than LeBron. Especially in terms of rebounding, it is not the quarterback style of LeBron. Of course, LeBron is also very good, but I think Russell's triple-double is more representative."

After the press conference was completed, the relevant reports were quickly released to the Internet, which quickly caused a lot of discussion.

Some fans said that Westbrook specialized in snatching many rebounds from his teammates, which wasted some fast break opportunities. Some fans said that LeBron was called the ball-handling small forward, but in fact he was a cake distributor. It was naturally very easy to get a triple-double.

Su Yang did not respond to all kinds of discussions, but Suns coach Gentry took the initiative to mention him in the interview.

Gentry said in an interview with ESPN: "Su is a genius. I played against him two years ago in the Las Vegas Summer League. He led the Trail Blazers to chase us for 20 points. He successfully learned from many highlights of Mike in the application of early offensive tactics and transformed it. He is an explorer of space-based basketball play style and he will become a master."

When Su Yang saw the interview, he knew that Mike Gentry was D'Anthony, and D'Anthony, as a teacher like Gentry, was used by Gentry for comparison, which invisibly showed that Gentry truly recognized Su Yang, which was a very high praise.

After thinking about it, Su Yang praised the interview and commented sincerely that Gentry led the sun to play well.

After three days off, on December 7th, the Thunder played against the Golden State Warriors at home, and made their second six-game winning streak in the season.

Su Yang was interviewed and wanted to motivate Westbrook to improve his shooting, especially his three-point shooting ability, so he took the initiative to talk about Curry: "Stephen is an extremely outstanding point guard. His games at Davis Academy, especially his three-point shooting ability, impressed me very deeply. He will be an MVP player, and he will lead the change in basketball game style like Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson. He will become an idol of children, and many people will imitate him to shoot three-pointers."

Such praise was reported in less than half an hour, attracting fans and commentators to join the discussion.

Mainly Su Yang's statement is too exaggerated. It would be fine if he thought Curry was an MVP player. After all, he had thought that the Third Young Master of the Thunder would be an MVP. Fans only thought that he was more casual in praise, like a rookie player being hyped up as the next one.

But Su Yang mentioned Curry this time and praised Curry for leading the transformation of his basketball game style. The controversy is too great.

Moreover, Su Yang also brought Iverson into the discussion, believing that Iverson is of the same level as Jordan to some extent.

Before the game started, social networks were discussing hotly, so there was no live broadcast across the United States, but the ratings still increased significantly.

When the game started, perhaps because he noticed Su Yang's praise, Westbrook took the initiative to defend Curry many times.

But because of the Warriors' three-guard lineup, Westbrook took the initiative to attack and caused several misses, allowing CJ Watson to easily score.

Assistant coach Brian reminds him that he should call a timeout, or speak up to remind Westbrook, that defense will only destroy the rhythm.

Su Yang was not in a hurry and intended to arouse Westbrook's fighting spirit. Westbrook did not pull the ball, which successfully caused Curry to make two mistakes.

During the timeout between the quarters, Su Yang did not allow Westbrook to adjust. Anyway, the three-back lineup of Warriors Curry, Watson and Ellis, the frontcourt is ski man Radmanovic and Mickey Moore, the last in the defensive league, and the Thunder wins casually.

In the second quarter, Westbrook made Curry make 1 turnover and 2 fouls, but he still couldn't stop Curry from shooting.

On the one hand, Curry runs too well without the ball, and on the other hand, Curry is too good to combine the ball and shoots fast.

After the half, Westbrook returned to the locker room angrily, and Su Yang said indirectly that it was necessary to practice well.

After returning from the half, Su Yang instructed to strengthen his offense and defense. The Thunder players immediately made a wave of operations, allowing Ellis to make 1 of 6 shots, and Radmanovic to make 1 of 5 shots, giving the Warriors only 5 sports scores in the third quarter, giving the Thunder 18 points in a single quarter.

After the whole game, the Thunder defeated the Warriors 104-88 and successfully won the second six-game winning streak in the season.

Westbrook hurriedly looked through the statistics after the game and found that Curry made 9 of 14 shots, and his expression frozen on the spot.

But when Curry made 5 mistakes and 5 fouls, Westbrook smiled and promised Su Yang that he would practice shooting well.

Su Yang said that he remembered Westbrook's promise and then rushed to the press conference. The first question was to evaluate Curry.

Faced with the reporter's difficulties, he calmly replied: "First of all, I want to praise Russell for his excellent defense, which led to Stephen's mistakes and fouls, but I will not change his words. Stephen's performance is OK tonight. You must know that he only made 14 shots, but his shooting percentage is the highest in the team. The Warriors' lineup has a certain burden on him, and he will soon prove that I'm right."

That answer was soon moved to social media, which once again caused many discussions among fans.

Some fans think that Su Yang is not suitable to say so. After all, he is the head coach of the Thunder, and even if he really appreciates it, he has done it a bit.

Some fans also believe that Su Yang is trying to recruit illegally and prepare for future signing or trading Curry, with far-reaching plans.

Su Yang did not respond, but Old Nelson said: "If Su Zhen likes Curry so much, then go to Golden State to coach."

After playing against the Warriors, the Thunder got four days off, which lasted for the previous three days, which was equivalent to seven days and two games.

But the Thunder are about to usher in 4 days and 3 games. The entire schedule seems to be in a mess. It is very loose when it is loose and very tight when it is tight. Su Yang found Presti for this and hoped to react to the league and not have such a fucking schedule in the future.

On the tenth, the Thunder team flew to New York.

The game started one day, and Harden reported to Su Yang again and then went to a playhouse nightclub.

Su Yang did not stop him. Before the game the next day, he found Harden yawning, so he arranged for Harden to rotate as usual.

When the game was over, with Durant's 32 points and Westbrook's quasi-double, and Green's 7-of-10 shots, the Thunder defeated the Knicks 102-94, but Harden made 12 shots in the game, and even made three-way appearances several times, and the performance was a tie.

With seven consecutive victories, the team flew back to Oklahoma that night. Su Yang got up at noon and called Harden to train.

He accompanied Harden to practice shooting at the base throughout the afternoon, requiring five consecutive three-goals to be completed.

It was dark and Harden couldn't finish it. He had dinner with him and asked him to continue to vote. If he couldn't finish it, he wouldn't think about leaving.

As he was shooting, Harden had a little temper: "Coach, anyone will perform abnormally when targeting me..."

Su Yang smiled and said, "I'm trying to spur you without targeting you. Have you never heard of your idol Kobe's three consecutive games against the Jazz in the playoffs that year, and returned to Los Angeles to shoot all day in the early morning. Aren't you going to be a player like Kobe? Then you have to demand yourself with Kobe's training attitude, don't always think that you are the sixth person in the team. I treat you as an MVP!"

Harden couldn't speak for a long time and continued to shoot honestly, but in the end it was not completed. Su Yang said to keep the accounts first.

The next morning, the coaching staff held an analysis meeting against the Cavaliers, and Snyder took the initiative to talk about Harden's shooting.

"I feel like you've been pushing them a little tightly recently. You can relax a little and don't let them rebel."

Su Yang nodded: "I understand what you mean. Actually, Russell is fine, but James is not worry-free. You have to press it tightly. That guy doesn't know how strong he is. I want him to have a better career. And other teams have noticed us. There will be a lot of targets in the future. We need him to stand up and lead the substitute lineup to perform better..."
