Deron Williams is Enjoying PJ Carlesimo’s Coaching The Avery Johnson/Deron Williams relationship did not end well at all. The Brooklyn Nets point guard is having a much better time with his new coach, PJ Carlesimo. Williams says the system — which he was critical of during Johnson ’s tenure — hasn’t changed much, but Carlesimo’s personality and approach has won him the respect and admiration of the locker room. Per the NY Post: “ He’s been great for us so far, and I think all the guys responded well to him. I think all the guys like him. He’s done a great job coaching us,’ said Williams, who is averaging 20 points per game and 8.8 assists during the Nets’ four-game winning streak heading into tonight’s game against the Suns at Barclays Center. ‘We lost a head coach, but then we gained another one. He’s coached a lot of teams in this league as a head coach. Like I said, he’s doing a great job.’ Williams had taken shots at Johnson’s system, and the latter was fired soon after. Other than having Williams run a few more pick-and-rolls with Brook Lopez, Carlesimo hasn’t changed much. But the Nets are 6-1 under him and averaging 102.9 points per game, after going 14-14 under Johnson and averaging 94.5. ‘They just have different styles, different coaches, different ways they like to do things,’ Williams said. ‘ Our system hasn’t changed much, our defensive principles haven’t really changed much. It’s just how we practice and how we prepare is just a different style. P.J. and Avery have different personalities. … [Carlesimo] gets after it. He’s yelling all practice, all game. But I think guys respect it because he’s a straight shooter. … He’s pretty hilarious. When he’s yelling, it’s still funny. [But] he does a great job of balancing it. It’s not like he’s just screaming all the time. He’s doing a good job of teaching us as well.’ For his part, Carlesimo insists he has changed as little as possible, for continuity’s sake. ‘I think you kind of get a trickle down as you go forward. You make little tweaks here or there,’ Carlesimo said. ‘The system is a very good system that Avery put in, that some of these guys have been running for a couple of years. One of the strengths of San Antonio for years and the teams that were really good for a long time, the rosters didn’t change that much. We had the same 10 or 11 of the 14 or 15 coming back every year. [Spurs coach Gregg Popovich] had an expression, he called ‘corporate knowledge.’ We’re just developing corporate knowledge. … I’m a big fan of that same continuity. I like less changes and more continuity.’” 　北京时间1月12日，据ESPN报导，自从接替“小将军” Avery Johnson担任布鲁克林篮网队的临时主帅以来， P.J.-Carlesimo率队打出了6胜1负的佳绩，这也是继2003-04赛季 的7胜0负之後起步最好的篮网主帅。 尽管财大气粗的网队依然在寻找大牌主帅，候选者包括禅师和范甘迪兄弟等在内， 但是据球队内部人士反映，管理层对Carlesimo上任後的表现很满意， 因此他很有可能带队至本赛季结束。 　　“P.J.做得很棒，尽管球队经历了很多的波折， 但是能够重新回到正轨，他的功劳很大。” 一名网队的内部人士向ESPN透露道。 　　取得如此佳绩，Carlesimo本人也是更加充满自信。 “我认为每一位元教练都会坚信自己是最棒的那一个。 所以我当然相信自己是这个位置的最佳人选。”他说道。 　　Carlesimo自从担任网队临时主帅以来之所以能够那麽顺利， 很重要的一个原因是得到了球队核心控卫德隆-威廉姆斯的力挺。 要知道在“小将军”被炒之前，小胖曾抨击过他的战术体系。 尽管Carlesimo上任後基本延续了“小将军”的战术理念， 但是德隆的反应却是大不一样。 　　“至今为止，他的表现很出色，队员们对他的印象都很好，大家很喜欢他。” 小胖如此评价Carlesimo，“他是一个经验丰富的教练， 就像我刚才说的，他做得真的很棒。” 在过去四场比赛里，小胖突然爆发，场均能得到20分和8.8次助攻， 并带领网队取得四连胜。换句话说，Carlesimo的上任不仅帮助网队暂时走出困境， 同时也大大激发了德隆的活力。 当评价Carlesimo和Avery Johnson之间的不同点时，德隆这样说道： “他们的风格完全不同，处理问题的方式也不一样。 虽然我们的战术体系并没有发生太大的改变， 但平时的训练以及准备比赛的方式不同了。” 他俩的个性差别很大，P.J.也常常在训练和比赛中对我们大声吼叫， 但我们很尊重他，因为他就是这样一个直来直往的人。 而且当他大声吼叫的时候，样子非常可爱。 最重要的是，他很幽默，是一个懂得去平衡的人。 他会用一种容易让人接受的方式向我们灌输 他的战术理念，而不是只会一味地大声叫駡。” 在Carlesimo的执教下，篮网的场均得分一下子上升到102.9分， 比“小将军”执教时多了8.4分。 此外，球队的投篮命中率也从43.8%提升到46.6%。 我很感激avery把我带到篮网队的教练组，并让我得到展示自己的机会。” 虽然Carlesimo知道自己目前还未转正，但是对於将来，他却显得非常乐观。 我不会去想未来会发生什麽，我所知道的是， 现在全队上下都非常努力，希望这股势头可以继续保持下去。” http://www.slamonline.com/online/nba/2013/01/deron-williams-is-enjoying-pj-carlesimos-coaching/ --
