During this period of time, the 76ers have changed. Ordinary fans can only see half of their claws, ignorant, and even unaware of what the 76ers are doing.

But an NBA coach like Spoelstra naturally saw it at a glance. The 76ers are making a trade-off-abandoning the No. 1 position in the Eastern Conference and strive to go further in the playoffs.

"To be honest, I was a little surprised." Coach Spoelstra said: "The 76ers are a young team, the players are very young, and the coach is very young. It's like the Bulls of the 10-11 season. Young and energetic, full of eagerness for victory, and will not miss any chance to prove oneself, such as regular season winning streak record, home winning streak record, regular season record number one, etc..."

"But the 76ers didn't."

"At this time, the 76ers were able to decisively choose to abandon the No. 1 position in the East and use the last period to improve their strength. It is very surprising." Coach Spoelstra's eyes flashed with appreciation. "One It’s hard for a young team to give up the temptation in front of you and look far away. It also shows that this team is difficult to deal with."

Upon hearing this, the two assistants nodded together.

They also have this feeling. The Bulls didn’t realize it at the beginning, or realized it, but they failed to resist the temptation of being No. 1 in the East. Rose did not resist the temptation of regular season mvp because they only need to play No. 1 in the East. , His hope of winning mvp will be greater.

As we all know, most of the NBA regular season mvp will perform the best in the regular season of the east and west, which is the regular season record of the first team selected.

Qin Hao also has a chance this season.

The 76ers have always been No. 1 in the Eastern Conference, and Qin Hao’s personal performance is unquestionable. On the mvp list, Qin Hao has even entered the top three ranks, ranking second, second only to Kevin Duran of the Thunder. Especially, the ranking is still above the Bulls' Rose.

There is no doubt that Qin Hao has a good chance to compete in the regular season mvp.

This is a great temptation for any player, no more than a championship ring, but Qin Hao, a young player who is only 23 years old, can resist this temptation and make decisive choices. It is true. Surprised coach Spoelstra and the two Heat assistants.

You know, the regular season mvp is not just an honor, it will determine a player's low position and how much money he makes.

The "Ross Clause" stipulates that if a player has won the regular season mvp during the rookie contract period, he can use this clause to get a big contract.

Of course, Qin Hao has been selected to the All-Star lineup as the Eastern Conference starter twice in a row, even without mvp, it complies with the "Ross Clause."

But even so, it is not easy to refuse the temptation of regular season mvp.

"It's such a young team, but it's so scary." The assistant coach Craig frowned and asked: "Coach, what should we do?"

Assistant McAdoo also looked at the head coach.

Coach Spoelstra pondered for a moment, and said: "We need to keep an eye on the 76ers' movements. We don't need to analyze every game, but at least every two games, we have to do a video analysis of them. Then make a plan. If we meet the 76ers in the playoffs, how do we respond."

The two assistants nodded and couldn't help feeling that even if the Bulls didn't let the head coach treat them like this, the 76ers are still pretty good.

......

at the same time.

Chicago.

The Bulls coaching staff is also discussing the 76ers.

The final conclusion is similar to that of the Heat’s coaching staff, but according to the current record rankings, if the same is still true until the end of the regular season, then the 76ers will encounter the Heat first, so the Bulls actually hope the 76ers will be more powerful. Kill the Heat.

After all, comparing the 76ers and the Heat, the Bulls coaching staff believes that the Heat is still a little harder to deal with.

If the 76ers can help them eliminate the Heat in advance, then even the 76ers will be difficult to deal with, they will still applaud.

The team that pays attention to the 76ers is not only the Heat and the Bulls. The Knicks are also discussing the 76ers. The regular season is not over, there are more than a dozen games, and the final ranking is still unknown.

Who knows if they will encounter the 76ers?

In addition, some teams ranked 5-8 are also paying attention to the 76ers, and one of them will definitely encounter the 76ers in the first round of the playoffs.

Just thinking about it makes them a headache, because the 76ers are already strong, but they are still going to be strong. How do you play against it then?

......

Philadelphia, training arena.

A group of 76ers players are training.

On the field, Sessions pushed the ball to the frontcourt, and then passed it to Lu Wei. Lu Wei broke the ball and passed it to Speights. Speights made a board hit.

Yes, it was Speights who had been in a truce for a month due to injury.

Speights returned to training a week ago, but to be on the safe side, coach Luke did not let him return to the game.

And the regular season is coming to an end, and the 76ers have no trouble making the playoffs, so Speights has no need to rush to make a comeback.

Not being able to play right away is nothing. What makes Speights depressed is that when he returns from injury, his starting position is completely lost.

Xiaoka is still the starter, he can only play as a substitute.

Think about how difficult it was to get into the starting lineup at the beginning, and to sit firmly in the starting lineup, Speights also conducted "devil training" during the offseason that season, and his head was bald.

But how long is this, just over a season later, his starting position is gone.

Depressed and depressed, but Speights also understands that Xiaoka is far better than himself in terms of personal strength, talent, and potential. Sooner or later it will be a matter of starting.

For the arrival of this day, he had actually been mentally prepared.

"Huh!"

With a soft sound, Qin Hao made a super-long three-pointer on the field, which was more than two meters away from the three-point line. The training arena did not print the logo, otherwise you can see that Qin Hao made the shot by stepping on the logo area.

"God!"

"Fuck, this is outrageous!"

The players have complained.

More than two meters away from the three-point line, the logo area suddenly shot, can you believe it?

But Qin Hao could, and he was able to shoot the ball. Sessions was standing on the three-point line, and could only shake his head, not even being jealous.

With a smile on his face, coach Luke said to the assistants Harry and Cox: "Facts have proved that our decision is correct. Although our record has declined during this period, we have lost the first place in the East, but the players' strength, the ball The strength of the team has all been improved."

Harry and Cox nodded again and again.

This is willingness and gain. If you give up something, you are destined to not get more. They made a choice and saw the gain.
