Cole: The Development Alliance is conducive to the growth of Wiseman. He must learn to let his teammates play their best.
Live broadcast, November 28 today, Warrior coach Cole talked about dropping Wiseman, Rawlings and Baldwin to the development alliance in an interview.
Cole said: “This is a great experience, and this is the meaning of this. This will give these young people as many exercise opportunities as possible. This is what Wiseman needs, it is also what Rawlings and Baldwin need, so this is our idea.”
“Wiseman is very eager to succeed, and being chosen in the second place has put pressure on him. For a young player, there are too many things to deal with, but he is really mature. He has experienced many injuries, and the most important thing is to constantly remind him that this is a long process. Wiseman is doing well now, and his current situation is exactly what he needs. The training day after day is more important than that he can’t play so many balls here. Therefore, I think, in the long run, we think this matter is very positive for his growth.”
“What Wiseman has to do includes exercising, understanding rotation and competition plans, and all these things. In addition, we should also understand the influencing factors of victory. I think for young players, the most difficult thing in NBA is to understand what affects victory, because it is beyond the competition plan. Now, he needs to deeply study the mentality of the team and the synergy of five people, what goals the team wants to achieve, what teammates are best at, and how to make them play their best, this really takes five people to synchronize. Therefore, when players do not have much experience, this is a very important process.” Cole continued.
Yesterday in the Development League game, Wiseman made 5 shots in 11, 0 out of 3 points, and got 14 points and 10 boards, with a positive and negative value of-11.
