Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 134 Dreaming back to the peak card, the crazy finals!
The Los Angeles Lakers in the 2012-2013 season can definitely be described as the most legendary in history.

During the 2012 offseason, Jim Buss formed the F5 of Kobe, Nash, Howard, Gasol, and Artest. At the beginning of the formation, the Lakers fans were extremely excited, feeling that the Lakers had entered the championship sequence again.

The subsequent performance of the Lakers can be described as crashing.

The Lakers' F5 finally sent away the team's three head coaches, and ushered in their fourth head coach in half a season.

When the team ushered in the rookie head coach Du Kang, Lakers fans can be described as desperate.

What championship or not? The F5 Lakers finished half a season with 17 wins and 25 losses, ranking No.13 in the Western Conference.

Two MVPs, F2 led by two best defensive players, ended up with such a result.

For a while, the Los Angeles Lakers and the team's stars became the laughing stock of the entire NBA.

When the old Buss was dying, the team was troubled internally and externally.

At that time, no Lakers fan would have thought that this Lakers would finally reach the finals.

Five months passed.

The rookie head coach of the Lakers who was booed by fans throughout Los Angeles, Du Kang, Coach D.

No one thought that the youngest rookie coach in NBA history.

It can actually clean up the old situation of the Lakers.

Sorting out the chaotic team, leading this old, weak and sick team that was laughed at by the entire NBA, finally reached the finals.

During this period, he won 40 consecutive victories in the regular season and 12 consecutive victories in the playoffs. He has led the team so far without a defeat.

And if it just keeps bringing victories, it's still a legend.

But definitely not recognized as the most legendary NBA team.

Because the head coach of this team, Coach D, brought victory in a way that was even more incredible than the victory itself.

Four guards, Oden, Yi, Nash, Ebanks...

Players who have already started to stay away, or simply have been away, have regained their brilliance in his team.

He's not just bringing victory to the Lakers.

He is still saving those youths who are about to die.

The farewell battle of Jerry Buss.

The party battle of the four defenders.

The rebirth battle of Chinese YI.

Steve Nash's Battle for Recognition.

Dwight Howard's battle of shame.

……

The Lakers this season, under the leadership of Coach D, have left too many legends and incredible memories.

Now, the legendary Lakers are only four games away from perfection.

The finals G1 between the Lakers and the Miami Heat will start in Miami on June 6.

After the Heat defeated the Pacers 5-30 on May 4, public opinion across the United States was frantically reporting the finals between the Heat and the Lakers.

The Lakers led by the four guards representing the peak traffic of the last era of the NBA, and the Heat led by the Big Three of James Wade Bosh and the Heat representing the peak traffic of the NBA era, are about to stage a showdown in the NBA.

After this group of duels came out, let's just say that the biggest topic in the world's sports world is the NBA Finals that will start on the night of June 6.

Among them, the Lakers led by Coach D and the four guards are far above the Heat in terms of traffic.

Both ESPN and TNT have conducted national support surveys for the finals.

In last year's finals, the Thunder's support was 90%. Only Florida, where Miami is located, supported the Heat, and all other places supported the Thunder.

In this year's finals, according to ESPN's results, the Heat even lost Florida.

This is very interesting.

You know, Maizi and Howard are both in the Lakers.

Logically speaking, even if Orlando fans don't like the Heat, they don't really like the Lakers.

However, according to ESPN's survey, before the finals, the favorability of Florida fans towards Maizi and Howard soared.

Maizi is actually understandable, and his performance in the Lakers this season is really explosive.

And Howard...

It can only be said that in the playoffs against the Grizzlies, Howard was too popular.

Sparks is a real man, he can kill two bears with one hand!

Therefore, the entire map of the United States, so far, is a piece of Lakers gold and purple.

So before ESPN started playing, the support of the Lakers was 100% based on the support of the states on the map.

In the past few seasons, those people have frantically washed the Big Three of the Heat. The final result is that James was the MVP last year. The fan support is only 10%, and this season, only 0% is left.

This is a bit embarrassing.

Fans watch the Lakers, coach D, and the four guards, and they don't follow the routines of those people at all.

There are better choices, who wants to be brainwashed and raped.

However, these people don't care about the approval rating surveys made by ESPN and TNT.

Last season, the support of Thunder fans was 90%. Isn't the final result very clear?
What about the 100% support of the Lakers?
Let's put it this way, in the eyes of these people, Coach D and the four guards are just lambs to be slaughtered.

Last year's Thunder three led the Thunder aggressively to kill the Lakers, the Mavericks, the Spurs, and all the NBA's Western Conference champions in the past ten years.

But what about that?
Wasn't it broken by them and the Heat, or even broken up in the end.

"The Lakers will also have this fate!"

"This year's NBA finals should be the greatest finals in history. This year's finals can only be a duel between LeBron James and the four major guards. Others should not steal the show in this duel. I am talking about Dwight Howard."

"Dwight Howard isn't going to have any show-stealing opportunities in this series."

"This series will be the beginning of LeBron James surpassing Jordan and going to Goat!"

"In this finals, LeBron must not lose!"

Before the start of the finals, all forces were undercurrents.

No way, this year's finals received too much attention.

The interests of all parties are too great.

According to TNT's forecast, this year's finals will create the NBA's finals ratings record.

Peak ratings should exceed 4000 million viewers.

Everyone wants a piece of the action in this finals.

Even Heat player James, after the Heat reached the finals, was very active and has been interviewed by the media.

The feeling of the long-lost flow returning to him made James very happy.

"Although I am a fan of Michael Jordan, I have always watched the games of the four guards. I love their games to death. I am the same as ordinary fans. I thank Coach D for restoring the four guards to their peak. Chance to play them in the Finals."

Seeing James talking to the reporter, Wade next to him frowned.

Well, thanks to Coach D for restoring the four guards, they can understand.

but……

Let the four guards return to their peak?
Are the current four guards at their peak?
Wade doesn't confirm.

I always feel that what LeBron said is not very correct.

"LeBron, you said that the current four guards are the top four guards?"

"Of course, they are still very great. I can't wait to play against them. When I was young, I always had a dream. In the NBA Finals, there will be the peak LeBron James against the peak four guards. .”

"Today I just woke up from this dream again. I dreamed that I and the four major guards faced off in the NBA Finals between the Heat and the Lakers. The atmosphere on the court was great, and we played an epic classic game. The game ended in a tiebreaker, and with five seconds left, it was 5-94, and the Heat had the ball."

"Before I saw the end of the game, I suddenly wanted to go to the toilet and then woke up. This kind of thing happens often. I never dream that the game is over. Anyway, this dream feels so real, hahahaha..."

James smiled and said that he had such a dream every night, and the media reporters present were stunned.

"Fuck! Although James is very humble and has a high EQ, this is what it means to kill the four guards alone?!"

"If you really follow James' dream, James may really become a god. What kind of big three teaming up is not worth mentioning in front of suppressing the top four guards!"

Many Chinese fans at the scene were very shocked.

It really is James who speaks such arrogant words in such a humble way, so well-structured!
"LeBron, in the past two years, there has been a debate about who is the GOAT between you and Jordan. Do you think you have the strength of Goat now?"

"Michael Jordan is still the greatest player, but I already have the qualifications to be the greatest player in history."

"You mean, you have entered the stage of accumulating honor?"

"Yes, Michael Jordan met the magician in the finals, just like I met the four guards in the finals now!"

"I am starting my own legend!"

After James finished speaking domineeringly, he left with a smile.

Facing such a competition that attracts so much attention from all over the world, it is necessary to establish such a domineering character.

With a domineering personality, coupled with his domineering performance on the court, he will reap all the glory of this prosperous age!

The interview with James ends.

The whole of America is the hot topic that James throws out on this visit.

"LeBron James said that in this year's finals, he will kill the four guards in the tiebreaker!"

"James' strength has reached Goat, and he is walking on the road of honor close to Jordan's legend!"

"James said that he is only short of honor from Jordan, and the four guards are the honor given to him by God!"

"Before the game, ESPN invited 100 experts to predict the finals between the Lakers and the Heat. The result was completely opposite to the support of the fans. The experts who supported the Heat to win the championship were as high as 70%!"

"The Lakers have no chance in front of the Heat!"

Of course, the Los Angeles media will not be used to this public opinion war that James personally provoked.

The Los Angeles media, large and small, expressed their solidarity with the four guards and the Lakers.

And this made a certain big center of the Lakers very upset.

"The finals between the Lakers and the Heat, shouldn't everyone pay attention to the matchup between me and James?"

Howard felt that the entire American media was blind!

"Coach, are you the only smart person in this world?"

The look on Howard's face was very unhappy.

"Dwight, 4 years ago, you could swell ESPN's face and send James out. Now, can't you?"

After Du Kang finished speaking, the expression on Howard's face lit up.

"Coach, you still speak nicely, I like it!"

"Train well."

Du Kang patted Howard on the back, and the kid went to training obediently.

"Ding, the skill that your player Vince Carter learned from Allen Iverson, the master of the first step, has changed from gold to purple gold, please pay attention to check."

Oh?
Du Kang froze for a moment, then clicked to open it.

Purple First Step Master Activation Requirements: Complete 10 games with more than 5 lightning breakthroughs in official NBA games (2/10)

Well, Carter is still 8 games away from fully activating the first master at the purple level, but has reached the purple-gold transition stage first.

This is very powerful.

"Ding, your player Kobe Bryant has taught 10 kids who don't know how to play basketball at all, please keep up the good work."

Well, after the Lakers entered the playoffs, Kobe had a lot of rest time to teach children with Howard because of the sweeping reason.

Now the number of children learning basketball has exploded.

Regardless of the current 10, it is estimated that within a week and a half, there will be more than 100 soon.

When teaching people to play basketball, 0 to 1 is the slowest, and 1 to 100 is fast.

"Ding, your player Yi Jianlian, complete the 'adjustment' of the training plan, Ding your player Yi Jianlian's physical strength, reaction time, and fighting ability all attributes +1."

Now Ah Lian's physical strength has reached 91, which is considered excellent in the interior. At the beginning, Ah Lian's physical strength was only 80.

"Ding, your player Howard, complete the training plan 'mid-range and long-range shooting', your player Howard's three-point attribute is +3, and now it is 88 temporarily."

"Ding, your player Kobe Bryant has completed the training program 'mid-range and long-range shooting', your player Kobe Bryant has a three-pointer, and all attributes of the mid-range shot are +1."

After Kobe completed the enhanced training camp, the three-pointer has reached 96.

"Ding, your player McGrady has completed the training plan 'Big Guy Defense', assist defense IQ, blocks, inside defense, interference shots, defensive stability, all attributes +1."

"Ding, your player Carter has completed the training plan 'Athletic Ability', Ding your player Carter's bounce, speed, acceleration, dribbling speed, lateral agility, all attributes +1."

Carter's current acceleration is 91, and it will be very powerful when combined with the first step master who has just reached the purple gold.

Carter has steel knees, and Du Kang is not afraid that Carter's high acceleration will affect the durability of his knees.

"Ding, your player Iverson has completed the training plan 'Athletic Ability', bounce, speed, acceleration, dribbling speed, lateral agility, and dunks on the spot +1 to all attributes."

Iverson's acceleration came to 93.

This is already the maximum that Iverson's knees can bear, and if it is added to the above, there will be risks to the body.

"Ding, your player Oden has completed the training program 'Double Guard'. Your player Oden's passing accuracy, passing vision, passing IQ, mid-range shooting, and fouls are all lower than 90. You have adjusted the training plan. , Your player Oden's mid-range shooting attribute has been increased by 2 points, and it is now 90."

Well, after Du Kang was crazy about CIC, Oden's current CIC attribute finally broke 90.

In order to take care of Oden's body, Du Kang asked him not to be in the lineup when he played the Grizzlies, and watched the series against the Grizzlies in the stands.

In the finals, Oden will definitely lift the ban.

"Ding, your player Ebanks has completed the training plan 'hidden potential', your player Ebanks' potential is lower than 90, the potential has been increased by 2 points, and adjusted to 89, please pay attention to check."

"Ding, your player Nash completed the 'mid-range and long-range shooting', mid-range shot, three-pointer, all attributes +1."

After sweeping the Grizzlies, Du Kang entered the team's harvest stage.

In the first round, the Western Conference semifinals, the Western Conference finals, and the three enhanced training camps, the strength of the Lakers' players has increased.

Except for Kobe, Maizi, and UAE's ability value has not changed.

The ability value of other Lakers players has increased by at least 1 point.

Therefore, Iverson's current overall rating has also reached 90.

With Iverson's overall rating reaching 90, the Lakers already have six players with an overall rating of 90 or more, including the four major guards plus the United Arab Emirates and Howard.

Beyond that, Ebanks, Oden and Nash are all now 89 overall.

Among them, what pleased Du Kang the most was Ebanks' ability value.

Ability 89, potential 89.

Cut layup 89, stop dunk 80, cut dunk 89, close-range shot 80, mid-range shot 85, three-pointer 85, free throw 80, fadeaway 85, post control 80, shooting IQ 90, passing accuracy 80 , ball control 85, ball receiving ability 85, passing IQ 80, passing vision 80, offensive stability 80, perimeter defense 90, defensive stability 85, passing insight 80, physical strength 95, and comprehensive durability 90.

Acceleration: 85, Speed: 88, Bounce: 85, Strength: 80, Lateral Movement: 85
Almost all attributes have reached 80 or more.

The hidden potential training camp has been strengthened three times, raising Ebanks' potential to 89. After he has fully trained his ability in the dream card, this attribute, seeing Du Kang, feels like looking at a bucket.

Interior Score: B+, Position Average: B
CIC scoring: B+, Position average: B+
Three-point score: B+, positional average: B+
Playmaking: B+, Position Average: B+
Perimeter Defense: A, Positional Average: B+
Inside Defense: B, Position Average: C
Rebounds: B, Positional average: C-
Basketball IQ A, position average: B+
Athletic: A-, Positional average: B
The only thing that makes Du Kang regretful is that his dream card is a bronze-level dream card. Although Zhang Jinsong is very talented among Chinese players, his talent is limited and it is difficult to enter the NBA. Abuse food in CBA.

Therefore, Ebanks didn't practice much of his skills. There were very few skills, all bronze, silver, and none of the gold-level skills.

The same as the original Alian.

Only high-level opponents can hone high-level skills.

Oden actually has this problem too.

The attribute panel is nice, but the skills are not enough.

Therefore, the strength they display may not be as strong as those NBA players with the same attributes and abilities.

This is determined by the level of the dream card.

No way.

Du Kang felt that it was already very good.

The finals between the Lakers and the Heat, Du Kang will not feel smooth sailing.

As Westbrook's junior, Du Kang paid attention to last year's finals.

The G1 Thunder won, and the G2 Thunder is about to reverse what happened when they defeated the Heat. Du Kang will not forget it.

He needs hole cards, and the more hole cards the better.

This way all possible problems can be dealt with.

From the beginning when he coached the Lakers with only three thighs, now the team has a bunch of thighs.

Du Kang feels that he has really gained a lot from the Lakers in the past half season.

His 'thigh phobia', now, has finally been completely liberated.

Item: Dream Back to the Peak Card
Level: Purple

Effect: It can restore the players who have passed the peak period to the peak. For players over 40 years old, the recovery effect will decrease. The minimum effect is 90% of the peak ability. The recovery effect is related to the player's personality and other factors. The effect of players over 50 years old The minimum is 80%. Players who are over 60 years old are invalid. Note: The older you are, the lower your athletic ability when you return to the peak.
Use: It can only be used on one player. When not used, the player's ability will be restored to its original state, so please use it with caution.

"This is really a good thing!"

If he got this prop in the regular season, even if Du Kang was knocked out and free shipping, he would still get Jordan to the Lakers!
This prop is equivalent to having an extra thigh!

Well, Jordan is out of reach now.

"Ding, your player Kobe is at his peak and cannot be used."

"Ding, your player McGrady is at his peak and cannot be used."

"Ding, your player McCarter is at his peak and cannot be used."

"Ding, your player Iverson is at his peak and cannot be used."

"Ding, your player Nash is at his peak and cannot be used."

Well, although they are old, their abilities are indeed at their peak, and their peak time in the system has indeed not passed.

Nash, Carter, Wheat, Kobe, their peak time is all at the age of 40.

Players over the age of 40 can recover up to 99% of their peak abilities and a minimum of 90%; after 50, they can recover to a minimum of 80% and a maximum of 99%.

In the future, bind this peak card to Kobe, let him play until he is 60 years old, and vomit him!

Of course, this is a joke.

"Ding, your player Artest is available."

"Ding, your player Antawn Jamison is available."

……

……

"Meta, Antoine, what did the coach ask you to do just now?"

Seeing Artest running back so excitedly, the Lakers player next to him asked curiously.

When did the coach's grace benefit Artest and Jamison alone?

"The coach said to give me restorative acupuncture alone, which can restore my body for a short time!"

"and!"

Jamison showed off his black wristband excitedly!

"We're the ones with wristbands now!"

"Why do you two only have one wristband?"

this……

For a moment Jamison and Artest didn't know how to answer.

"The coach said that whoever will play in the future will wear it."

Then, at the training ground in Los Angeles, the legend of half a wristband spread.

Seeing his teammates excitedly talking to Artest, Jamison talked about how the coach helped them temporarily restore their peak bodies.

Kobe, McGrady and Carter had that meaningful smile on their faces.

"Peak...I am the peak now!"

Kobe said with a smile.

Now he is the strongest in his career!
"I am the strongest now!"

This is Carter, even at his peak, he can't play like he is now, even at his peak, he can't fly in the air forever like he is now!
He died before reaching his peak.

And now, it was the pinnacle of what he could imagine!

"TMC, what about you?"

Kobe and Carter looked at Maizi curiously.

Maizi let out a breath.

"I don't know where my peak is."

Kobe and Carter understand what Maizi said, and he is also someone who has never reached his peak.

"but……"

but?
Kobe and Carter looked puzzled with sympathy, but what?
"But, I know, I am stronger than you all."

"..."

Fake!

Carter looked at this stinky cousin and wanted to kill him!
"AI, what about you, do you want the coach to help you get back to the top?"

"No, what the coach gave me has already allowed me to play in the strongest way. Now as long as I stand on the court, I am the strongest!"

Seeing the proud look on Iverson's face at this time, Nash froze for a moment.

Yes, Allen is a guy who has an ability of 90 and can use his mental power to reach 99!
"What about you, Steve?"

"I've never been stronger than I am now."

and so……

"LeBron James is right, we are indeed at the top right now."

"He said he could kill us in a tiebreaker."

"Maybe just try it."

Kobe, McGrady, Carter, Nash and Iverson all had smiles of excitement and anticipation on their faces at this time.

June 2013, 6, Miami, American Airlines Center, 6:9 p.m.

G1 of the finals between the Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers is being staged on the court.

The fans of the Miami Heat, who always like to be late, rushed to the arena in the first quarter after a long absence.

Such a fiery game, no one wants to miss it.

Such a wonderful duel, no one is willing to give up.

On the court, amidst the cheers of the Heat fans.

Lakers center Howard looked at the referee on duty with a look of shock.

"Why, why did I foul just now? In the Western Conference Finals, against the Grizzlies, I defended like this, confronted like this, and blocked shots like this!"

Howard was chasing the referee at the scene, and the Lakers players couldn't hold back.

Beep beep beep!
Three whistles in a row.

The referee made a T gesture to Howard!
"Oh my god, incredible whistleblowing!!"

"Howard suffered his second technical foul of the game!"

"In this game, Howard was sent off. Howard played less than 5 minutes and was sent off for two technical fouls!"

"With two fouls, he has to stay on the court. Howard, who bluntly said before the game that he wanted the FMVP, was sent off after 4 minutes of playing!"

The three commentators from TNT were stunned.

Even if they were fun people, they were stunned by the referee's call on Howard.

Howard is a super giant, the number one center!
Called three fouls at the beginning, who can bear it!

Really no star whistle at all.

And as long as there is physical contact, Howard will be blown if there is a little foul.

Any inside player can't stand being caught like this.

They can even understand Howard.

Even O'Neill can understand Howard!

"Dream back to the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals!!!"

"Crazy Finals!!!"

Barkley even shouted that he dreamed of going back to the 2009 Eastern Conference finals.

In that series, Howard played against the Cavaliers in shackles throughout the game, and finally averaged 5.3 fouls per game and killed the Cavaliers.

After that series, James' confidence was directly shattered.

And this time in the finals!
"No, this time, Howard collapsed!"

"Coach D is in trouble!"

"He not only lost Howard in this game, he will lose his favorite Howard forever!!"

Howard is trying his best to play in the finals and win the FMVP.

Now that he was sent off at the beginning, the FMVP has already left him, does he still have the fighting spirit in this series?

Even, if Kobe finally gets the FMVP, Howard will definitely leave the Lakers!

Too bad!
This simply broke the backbone of Coach D and the Lakers!
Anyone with a discerning eye in the circle can see that this is to make James a god!
So the four guards and Nash's strongest bodyguard, Howard, were messed up!
For a while, the live TNT broadcast camera was aimed at David Stern on the sidelines.

At this moment, David Stern squinted his eyes with a smile on his face.

Can't see anything.

Soon, the on-site broadcast camera was aimed at Du Kang on the sidelines again.

After Du Kang hugged Howard, he had the same smile as David Stern on his face, and even squinted his eyes the same way.

"Coach D, didn't even call a timeout!"

The live broadcast camera did not see Coach D's anger, nor did he see Coach D's dissatisfaction.

Even Coach D didn't even call a timeout after Howard was sent off!
"Coach D replaced Allen Iverson!"

"Coach D did not make a matchup inside substitution, but replaced Allen Iverson!!!"

"This is Coach D's five-back formation, the Lakers' four-back formation, finally appearing on the court!!"

My goodness!

Seeing that Du Kang went directly to Iverson instead of Yi Jianlian after Howard was sent off.

The Heat fans at the scene were stunned!
And the Lakers audience in front of the TV, many neutral audiences, are already stupid at this time!

"Du!!"

Not to mention the Lakers fans in front of the TV, even Hamm and Clifford next to Du Kang are stupid at this time!
Facing James, top five guards! ! !

Could it be that Du was mad with anger?
But it is impossible for any normal head coach to make such an incredible decision.

Nash, Iverson, Kobe, Carter, McGrady, this one can't be defeated by James and Wade!

"Coach Xiao Du was mad and made the worst decision! Coach Xiao Du thought it was the referee targeting him inside, so he didn't want the inside. It was the first time for Coach Xiao Du to play in the finals. I don't know. The intensity of the finals will be adjusted, the referee played this game very tightly, but overall it is fair, Howard himself is too excited, too excited!!!”

Yang Huahua was also very excited at this time.

This time, I finally don't have to be slapped in the face!

"In this game, Coach Xiaodu and the Lakers are really dangerous!!!"

"I said before the game that the NBA will never allow the old era to defeat the king who is about to ascend the throne in the new era!"

"Magic can't beat Jordan!"

"The four guards and coach Xiao Du can't beat LeBron James!"

Yang Huahua was going crazy right now.

Miami.

"Du!"

Du Kang's squinted eyes finally opened.

"Since they want it, I will satisfy them and see if they have the appetite to eat it!"

Hamm and Clifford knew Du Camp.

Although Du Kang's tone is 'friendly' now with a smile on his face, the black aura emanating from his body is terrifying!
they know……

"This time, Du, I'm really angry!"

on the field.

"Hahahaha, my prey is finally here!!"

James was excited.

"Our king, his eyes of death were revealed at the beginning, our king is about to eat!!!"

　This chapter was written so late in order to compress the word count and enter the finals quickly, sorry for keeping everyone waiting o(╥﹏╥)o
