Chapter 1616 Mr. Bo's Suggestion: Strategic Abandonment
Those young players seemed to not take this defeat seriously at all.
Only Rose, now there was an anxious and worried look on his face.
Wang Yi sighed secretly.
Sure enough, it is difficult for young players to lead.
The old team members know when to relax, when to tighten, when to be happy, and when to be angry.
And these young players don't understand this at all.
He knew that even if he hit these players at this time, although they would be serious on the surface, they still didn't take it seriously in their hearts.
In this case, coupled with the huge gap in strength between the two sides, how could it be possible to win the goal?
At this time, the Kings were suppressed by public opinion outside, and inside the team, these players did not take this failure seriously.
This made Wang Yi frown.
After returning to the rented room with An Jiali, Wang Yi kept thinking about the solution to this matter.
But until after 9 o'clock in the evening, he could not think of a very ideal solution.
After thinking about it, Wang Yi thought of someone.
Popovich, Mr. Po.
So he picked up his cell phone without hesitation and called Mr. Bo.
Immediately, Bobo's voice seemed a little old but a bit childlike naughty:
"Do you know how difficult it is for an 80-year-old man to fall asleep? How can you bear to bother this old man who just fell asleep?"
Wang Yi smiled and said, "I will give you a bottle of red wine to accompany you to get drunk somewhere."
"Okay, I'll sleep well after drinking. Wait for me, I'll go to the wine cellar to get a bottle of red wine."
As he spoke, he heard the footsteps gradually leaving on the phone, light and heavy.
After a moment, the light and heavy footsteps came from far away.
Then there was Mr. Bo's voice: "I guess you might call me. Tell me about the current situation."
Talking to smart people is easy to deal with, and there is no need to go around.
Sometimes, you even know what you are going to do without even saying anything.
Wang Yi breathed out and said, "What you see on the surface is that we won three games in a row with a big score. Although we lost in the fourth game, we only lost 4 points."
"It seems that we have a big advantage. But it is precisely because of this that the young players in the team underestimate the opponent too much, and D'Antoni's repeated speeches were useless."
"After losing tonight, they not only did not feel any heavy mood, but they were still playing in the locker room, as if they didn't take the Hornets seriously at all."
"If you continue like this, you will have to lose in the fifth game."
"If you can't fight hard, there's no way. But if you lose because of underestimating the enemy and mentality, it's really hard to accept."
"So I would like to ask the old man how to adjust their mentality. You have been in charge of the Spurs for 35 years and are very experienced in leading the team. How did you adjust?"
Mr. Bo heard Wang Yi's words and said:
"The situation is similar to what I expected. As for the solution, you have already mentioned it just now."
Wang Yi was puzzled: "I have already said it?"
Mr. Bo obviously took a sip of red wine and continued:
"Yes, think carefully about what you said just now?"
Wang Yi recalled everything he said just now and finally locked in one sentence:
"I have to lose in the fifth game?"
Mr. Bo laughed and seemed very happy: "That's right!"
After only saying these two words, he did not continue to say it, but left Wang Yi time to think.
And he was savoring the red wine slowly.
Wang Yi thought for a moment and said:
"What you mean is to let us lose strategically in the fifth game, not only to lose, but also to lose with a large score. Only in this way can these players pay attention to it, let them deeply understand the huge gap in strength between the two sides, and to make them completely put away their contempt?"
Mr. Bo smiled his hands and laughed: "It's easy to talk to smart people. With the strength gap between your teams and the players' contempt of each other's psychology, if you play normally, it will be difficult for you to win the fifth game. Even if you try your best, you will have a high probability of losing in the end."
"Instead of this, you might as well give up strategically. Of course, you can only know this strategic abandonment, and you cannot let the players know, otherwise it will be useless."
"After giving up strategically and losing a big score, it will not only attract the psychological attention of your players, but will also make the Hornets relax their vigilance, and may even make their players look down on the enemy."
Wang Yi felt a little moved when he heard this:
"OK, but I'm still worried that if I lose a big score in this game, the morale of the players will be lost, and then the sixth game will probably still be difficult to play."
Mr. Bo said: "It is much easier to stimulate a person's morale when he is in a low mood than to blow a person's morale when he is complacent and complacent."
Wang Yi thought for a moment when he heard this:
"Actually, I don't think we should determine the strategy of strategic abandonment too early, but look at the game status of both sides after we get up. If our game is not in good condition and their condition is hot, then give up strategically."
"On the contrary, we cannot give up, but we should do our best to win the game. Of course, if our condition is the same as their condition, we should still give up the game."
Popovich nodded: "You are right, that's what I mean."
"There is another thing you need to pay attention to. If you plan to strategically give up this game, you should save your physical fitness."
"There is less time to go to the fifth game, and less time."
"You should devote all your physical fitness and energy to the Sixth World War. Note that you should regard the Sixth World War as your last one."
"If you can't win the sixth game and put it in the tiebreak, with your team's overall strength and your physical fitness and yours and Derek's, it will be difficult for you to win the seventh game."
When Wang Yi heard this, he nodded.
In fact, he also realized what Mr. Bo said, as Mr. Bo said before, the Kings will be more difficult to win the game as the Kings go.
It's like two people who have a big gap in strength playing basketball.
If you only play one ball, maybe a weak person will just shoot one ball, and then you will win.
If the battle situation is extended to 3 balls, 5 balls, 10 balls or even 30 balls.
Then the weaker side will have a smaller chance of winning.
