Live broadcast bar, October 31 news Lakers coach Ham attended a press conference after defeating the Nuggets today, explaining in detail his arrangement for Wei Shao as a substitute.
When Ham was asked how he explained to Wei Shao that he wanted to arrange the latter as a substitute, Ham responded: “I told him that he would play very well. I have always told him, ‘Believe me, just believe me, you make sacrifices. If a player of your level does this, it will help the team hit a wave, this will help our team. You can’t look at this as usual. Everyone is more concerned about the starting line-up. If I remember correctly, he was in the squad when we ended the game today. So, what I said was, ‘buddy, I will put you in the position where you will control the ball after the substitute, leading a new wave. ‘”
“This has played a role in today’s game. His substitute appearance helps the team in all aspects, scoring, rebounding and assisting. He gave confidence to other players, such as Reeves and others, Gabriel and Ryan. I think his (substitute) role is seamless for the team we have built. He can find his own rhythm, and then when James, heavy eyebrows and our starting players return to the court, wei Shao has found a good state of mind, and he can participate in it because he has played a very high level. And when our players take a break, they will feel ‘OK, let weishao come. I can’t go back to the court. So as not to ruin the situation. ‘”Ham continued.
“I am very happy for Wei Shao. In the last game against Timberwolves and the Nuggets, his performance was phenomenal, not surprising at all, but I was very happy, I can also imagine what Wei Shao has experienced.” Ham added.
