Australias coach Darren Lehmann bristled at suggestions that he or his support staff needed further change or reinvention following a drought-breaking victory over South Africa in Adelaide, at the same time revealing how much pressure he has been under in recent weeks.Lehmann did not enjoy being told through the press by team performance manager Pat Howard that he needed to reinvent himself as a coach following the recent run of five consecutive defeats, a streak that also coincided with the release of an autobiographical book, Coach, which outlines his philosophies.I was going to wear a suit to the press conference, Lehmann quipped when asked about Howards words. I didnt. I chose not to.Lehmann was also unhappy to be quizzed on the role of spin coach John Davison, who has a strong working relationship with the teams No. 1 spin bowler Nathan Lyon but is only seen sporadically on tour with him. Australia is a rare case of an international team not having a full-time spin coach, not only to work with spin bowlers but also to hone the part-time skills of batsmen who bowl spin.After a recent dry spell, Lyon bowled beautifully in Adelaide with the benefit of Davisons presence, and he has historically tended to perform at his best when his trusted mentor is nearby. However, Lehmann said he did not want to add to the number of support staff already with the team, and argued that other consultants had been used for Asian tours.So you want another staff member on tour? Lehmann replied to a question about Davison. A lot of people say its a question of numbers. Johns obviously got other roles as well, so he has been working with Nathan throughout the preparation phase of all Test matches. So he has been around, just Adelaide he stayed around.I would have thought weve had Murali [Muttiah Muralitharan] and had Sri [Sridharan Sriram], so weve had a couple around the place. Davos come around on tours. When were away, we normally take one. I dont think we havent taken one to the subcontinent.Lehmann admitted that Lyon had responded well to criticism he had faced from both outside the team and within. Im just pleased for the players. The players have copped a lot over the last few weeks and theyve responded really well, he said. Obviously, a change of players as well. You feel sad for the blokes who missed out in this Test match, but the guys who came in did a really good job. Steve [Smith] summed it up - a new young group going forward, really pleased for them.Overall, [Usman] Khawaja was outstanding in the first innings. He put away his cover drive and really summed up conditions well. They all did their job. It was great to see Nathan Lyon, who has copped a lot from everyone - including us, I suppose, as staff and selectors. He really did a great job for us this game as well.Public pressure on Lehmann and the selectors was underlined by his assertion that Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood will play in the ODI series against New Zealand that now takes place before the Pakistan Tests. We get in trouble if we dont play them, he said. Not sure about that [resting them]. But theyre going to play. At some stage.We gave them a break, didnt we? So they should get through the summer. But we got in trouble for that as well. Youre damned if you do, damned if you dont. The simple fact is day-night Test match, day off, helps us in the three one-dayers. So they should be fine there.Then, its a day-night Test match in Brisbane, so they should be right to get through the summer and its a pretty important summer as we know, its very important. They led our attack really well and stood up for us.Theyve just got to be really fit and fresh, as much as you possibly can. Theres so much cricket all year round. Do you learn your lesson along the way? You do. But, as long as theyre fresh and going okay, theres no problems playing them. But the advantage we had in them not going to South Africa as such is that Hazlewoods fresh as a daisy. Hes going really well. And bowled probably the best he has bowled in the last couple of summers, I thought, in this series.Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Blanc/Noir .

Nike Air Max Plus Tn Ultra Pas Cher . -- Yogi Ferrell orchestrates pretty much everything in Indianas offence.NEW YORK -- Brooklyn Nets point guard Jeremy Lin has embraced becoming a role model in the years following Linsanity, but he doesnt want to be simply referred to as a phenomenon.Everything happened overnight, Lin said Wednesday at a news conference. When [Linsanity] first started, I am not going to lie, it was cool. Then it became a burden because I didnt know what I had gotten myself into. I didnt know how big things had become. One, two, three years removed, every year I embrace it more, every year I am more appreciative, every year I love it more and that is where I am right now.Lin, who signed a three-year, $36 million contract to play in Brooklyn and reunite with former coach Kenny Atkinson, had his stunning 11-game run of dominance with New York in 2012 after being on the verge of getting released. During that stretch, he averaged nearly 24 points to go along with nine assists.Im in a much, much different place mentally as a person than I was when I was with the Knicks, Lin said. So when you talk about that platform, I want to embrace it. I am not just saying Asians. If you look at what is going on in the world and a lot of violence that is going on in the world in terms of the justice system and all of these different things that is real life. That is so much bigger than basketball. I have a voice because of basketball to be able to talk and influence [people] and do things that are related to things that are affecting peoples lives and things every day. That is a very unique situation.Asked specifically if Linsanity will be making a return to Brooklyn, Lin responded, I will be myself but I dont really draw too many comparisons to Linsanity the phenomenon. I am just going to keep playing. People will always kind of compare me to that. In a lot of ways, not in a negative way or a way that I am offended but it kind of dehumanizes me to refer to me as a phenomenon. I am going to be here, keep playing my game, do the best that I can and whatever you guys want to call it, that is up to you guys.Lin, who wore his hair in braids, is ready to take the next step as a player in an expanded role with the rebuilding Nets, who are coming off a 21-61 season.I met with my agents and family and close friends and they said what do you want and I said I want to see how good I can be, Lin said. I have played a lot of different roles; I have sacrificed for a lot of teams that I have been on in the past and I have taken on smaller roles to try to help the team succeed.Now II have that chance to take a much bigger role and be a much bigger part.dddddddddddd It is no surprise to anybody if you look at the numbers my whole career, when I have the ball in my hands, when I play longer minutes, when I am more comfortable, when I am empowered, I play better. And I am hoping I can take that next step as a player and hoping that I can help this team grow. I want to make my teammates better and make the game easier for everybody. I guess that is what will define me as a player.The Nets dont have total control over their own first-round draft pick until 2019. But Lin is hoping to be part of their turnaround.I made this analogy earlier, but for me, the way I was thinking of free agency was like when you invest in a startup company, Lin said. You dont necessarily look at the product right then and there. That is a big part of it, but youre kind of betting on the founder a lot of times. Youre betting on what that person is capable of doing, because sometimes as you go through the process, the final product is going to change a lot. Thats very common in startups and I feel like thats the kind of how this is.Im betting on certain people, Im betting on Kenny, Im betting on Sean [Marks], Im betting on myself, Im betting on Brook Lopez, Im betting on the way I feel. If I didnt feel like this has a chance to go where I want to go, then I wouldnt have signed up for it. Yeah,right now, and last season if you look at last season, we werent where we wanted to be, but its a process and its a challenge. And I think the biggest thing I would say is I believe in this, I believe in what were capable of becoming. Were not there right now, but we all know that, but thats the thing.One thing Lin wouldve done during Linsanity was enjoy it a bit more.Im big on kind of learning from my mistakes and one of the biggest mistakes I made from New York was not soaking everything in and enjoying it, Lin said. I was so focused on the next thing, the next goal, the next game, the next season, the next level. I was never really was able to just pause and enjoy that moment, and I think for me now, even this, a press conference or something, I dont know how many more years Im going to be able to play, and something small like this, maybe I just wouldve brushed over or kind of briefed through in the past, now Im trying to just take in a little bit.
