Booker did not accept Durant's suggestion, emphasizing that the style is different from Curry
The Suns have had a string of troubles in recent times, and their offense and defense look a bit like they've been messed up by two main players, Durant and Booker. Durant once said in an interview that Booker's 3-point shooting percentage is about the same as Curry's, and he also wants Booker to do his job better without Curry. Booker, however, was unimpressed by the proposal.
After today's practice, Booker mentioned in an interview the advice Durant gave him. We all have our own style," he said. I've learned how to be a better playmaker, I can yell and scream, but my defense is always underestimated. The advice Durant gave me was that I could help my players improve, but I had my own style. However, I also need to reflect on it. ”
Booker continued: "Curry has his strengths, and I have mine. Curry and I are very different in the way we play. Everyone has their own unique way of scoring, don't just look at who wins the scoring title and follow the trend. I'm always trying to figure out my own style of play and learn from it to improve myself. Booker is obviously an affirmation of Durant's opinion, he feels that he and Curry are completely different people, and the way of playing is completely different, and there is no need to learn from other people. At the same time, he said that he wants to be a better playmaker and admits that he still has a lot to improve.
At this time, the most important thing for the Suns is that the players trust each other and cooperate with each other. The team's recent poor results are mainly due to the lack of an efficient team and the cooperation and trust between the players. If the Durant-Booker conflict continues, there's a good chance the Lakers' record will continue to decline. However, Booker's remarks also remind us of the fact that basketball is a team sport, and each player has their own strengths and strengths. In this game, we have to use our strength as much as possible, and trust our players and cooperate with them. Only in this way can our overall capabilities be maximized.
Overall, Booker and Durant's proposals are not in conflict, and both men want their teams to get better results. Of course, we also have to see that each player's personality is different, and we can't blindly follow the trend. Only by making full use of its own advantages can the team's combat capability be effectively improved.
