Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 48 Thunder's Two Goblins!
Los Angeles Lakers practice facility.

"Steve, grab it!"

Following Du Kang's yell, Nash, who had been staring at the pass and making an uphill move, finally made a move this time!

Clap!
Nash intercepted Artest's pass to Yi Jianlian.

This break can definitely be called steady and ruthless.

Artest, who was a little loose when passing the ball, was stunned.

As the best defensive player ever, he can certainly judge how good the timing of Nash's steal was just now.

Is it an accident?
It must be an accident!
It was the coach who judged the timing and called it out, and Nash could steal it!

In fact, as a 39-year-old veteran, not many people really think that Nash can practice defense.

Even if it can be practiced, it is impossible to be so fast.

As far as Nash's level of grabbing the pass just now, let's just say that, ordinary first-defense guards can't do it.

In fact, Nash's grab just now was just eye-catching, and it didn't attract attention.

They are all NBA stars, who can not eat dumplings.

"Okay, Steve, today's training is over, take a good rest, spend more time with your children, and have a competition tonight. Today is your birthday, and your family and children are watching. Don't be ashamed of the competition."

"I know, thank you coach."

After Nash thanked him sincerely, he looked at the back of Du Kang leaving, as if he was in a dream.

Looking down at his hands, Nash clenched his fists excitedly.

I am not dreaming!

Nash breathed a sigh of relief, full of expectations for the game against the Thunder tonight.

If you want to talk about the entire league, who is the most ruthless point guard who bullies him now, Westbrook is now ranking higher and higher.

Nash is looking forward to the night's game at this time, and Howard next to him is actually the same.

"Steve, help me think about it, what can I do to borrow that golden wristband from the coach?"

Kobe's superb performance against the Heat in the last game made Howard cry.

"Just say no?"

"I'm afraid the coach won't give it to me. How embarrassing it would be. Do you want me to embarrass myself for a few games like Kobe, so that the coach will look at me pitifully and lend me the wristband for fun?"

"..."

For a while, Nash actually found that he couldn't keep up with Howard's brain circuit.

"Haha, I'm just kidding, I'm not as useless as Kobe, I'm the boss of the Lakers, I want the coach to give me that wristband instead of lending it to me!"

Looking at the confident Howard at this time, Nash was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Well, come on."

……

……

"Ding, your player Steve Nash has completed the training to activate the golden 'Interceptor' skill, activate the skill, Interceptor (golden), please pay attention to check."

Du Kang, who returned to his office, smiled and nodded.

Nash's golden skill activation was easy and it was done the same day.

Now, he can also start simulating the game against the Thunder tonight.

With Nash, who has golden defensive skills, the game at night will definitely be much safer, right?
It can only be said that Westbrook of the Thunder is indeed very restrained by Nash.

Even if Nash has this skill, Du Kang is not sure if this skill can really protect Nash from being abused by Westbrook.

Simulate race selection parameters.

Discussed with Clifford yesterday what kind of team the Thunder are.

This is a defensive team whose offense is pure talent.

According to Clifford.

This is a goblin team, and there are two big goblins in it.

If you can pinch one of the goblins on the defensive end, you might win.

If you can't pinch a goblin on the defensive end, Durant and Westbrook are both open, then Jordan is coming, and he is likely to kneel.

If you can strangle the two goblins to death on the defensive end, then congratulations, you've won.

"What a pure team."

This is not a derogatory term, or even a commendatory term.

In the NBA, sometimes the purer and more direct teams are the nemesis of those seasoned and old teams in the NBA.

In the past few years, the Spurs and Lakers have had a very hard time encountering the Thunder.

Thunder is simply a veteran killer.

Because the Thunder did not have a system, Du Kang didn't know which system to choose for a while. He chose running and bombing. He was afraid that the Lakers would not be able to outrun the Thunder.

In the battle of positions, the Thunder's Perkins and Ibaka are still very threatening to Howard and Yi Jianlian.

Perkins can beat Howard, and the effect is not bad. Perkins has strength but is not tall enough, so Howard needs to move and play better.

As for Yi Jianlian and Ibaka, if Yi Jianlian really has Nowitzki's golf quotient, Du Kang will not worry about him facing Ibaka.

Nowitzki can constantly switch between back and frontal attacks, and can switch Ibaka to death.

But Yi Jianlian does not have such a game reading ability now, which is the so-called golf quotient.

And Ibaka's height, wingspan, athletic ability and defensive ability really limit Yi Jianlian.

In fact, thinking about it this way, it is really difficult for the Lakers to play against the Thunder. The Thunder can match the Lakers in every point.

During the confrontation between the two teams last month, Du Kang sat on the coach's bench.

Durant and Westbrook combined for 69 points in that game.

Durant scored 42 and Westbrook scored 27.

Facing Durant and Westbrook's heads-up, Corvo was really clumsy, and he seemed to be a late hero.

23 of 8 in the game, playing very uncomfortable.

The Thunder's three outside players, Westbrook, Sefolosha, Durant, and Corvo are not easy to play.

Westbrook's defense is full of momentum. Although his skills are not good, Corvo lacks explosive power. Even if he has skills to play with him, he can't tear him apart. Even if he loses his position, he can immediately make up for it. It's not easy to fight either.

As for Sefolosha, he is a defensive player above the league level, with good physical fitness and solid defensive skills.

As for Durant, he is tall, fast, and able to cover people, but his skills are not so good, but his defensive talent is really full, and he does not lose his mind when he defends seriously.

It is precisely because of such an excellent overall defense that the Thunder can become the top team in the league without an offensive tactical system.

Now the Thunder with 36 wins and 12 losses ranks second in the league and second in the Western Conference, second only to the Spurs with 39 wins and 11 losses.

Playing the triangle offense, Kobe can't attract double teams, and his singles efficiency will not be too high.

If you beat and run away, you may not be able to run away from the two goblins.

Playing Howard's one inside and four outside, Howard may not be able to stand up to Perkins, but the Thunder's outside defense is fast, and the inside defense of Ibaka is strong, so it is difficult to score in and out to open up space.

"No wonder Clifford said playing the Thunder is a headache for every coach in the league."

This team is full of talent, maybe only talent can cure them.

So in the past two years, the Lakers and Spurs have always been deflated when they encountered the Thunder.

The Lakers and Spurs are the most experienced teams in the NBA.

But talent can't keep up, it's still useless.

"Since the system is not very useful, let's go straight to Xia Ji's eight fights. Let's see whose Xia Ji is beautiful and whose eight fights are powerful!"

This game against the Thunder is also extremely important to the Lakers and cannot be lost.

The Heat, the Thunder, and the Spurs, if they want to fully arouse the championship hearts of the Lakers veterans, these three teams must win once, even once!
In the first simulation, Du Kang did not choose a tactical system.

The team's first attacker, Kobe, second attacker, Yi Jianlian, third attacker Howard.

The other two starters are Artest and Nash.

As for the Thunder, the starters for this game are Westbrook, Sefolosha, Durant, Ibaka and Perkins.

This is the Thunder's regular lineup.

Defensive matchup, Howard defends Perkins, Yi Jianlian defends Ibaka, Artest defends Durant, Kobe defends Westbrook, Nash defends Sefolosha.

Adjust all simulation parameters.

Du Kang chose to simulate to start.

As soon as the screen changed, time and space changed, and Du Kang came to the Staples scene as if he was on the scene.

The game started. As the nearest spectator, Du Kang watched the game from a close distance and walked according to the simulation parameters he set.

"Beautiful escape, Westbrook was swayed away, Kobe Bryant! Westbrook rushed over again, be careful, Westbrook is flying!"

"Meta! Meta! Meta! Meta's power is in the air, Kevin Durant pulls the ball over, pulls up a jumper, hits!"

"Oh my god, it finally made a hit. Yi resisted Ibaka's defense and hit a difficult mid-range shot from the back. It was too difficult!"

……

……

Amidst the excited voice of the live DJ, the game is constantly going on.

It's too apt to describe the game between the Lakers and the Thunder as too difficult.

The same is Xia Ji's eight fights. Although not all of them have offense on the Thunder side, they all have defenses, and they are all top-notch defenses.

The Lakers can't beat the opponent's defense.

On the contrary, Durant's advantage over the Lakers is too great!
Durant needs speed and speed, height and height, shooting and shooting, three-pointers and three-pointers, and breakthroughs and breakthroughs.

No Lakers player can match him one-on-one. It's like an elevated version of Wade who can shoot three-pointers.

There is also Westbrook's impact, allowing Kobe to face him, and Kobe's defense is also very uncomfortable.

If it weren't for Howard's hard work at the basket, it is estimated that the Lakers' basket has become an air show area for young people like Ibaka and the Thunder.

"These two goblins are too cruel!"

What is the ultimate talent!

This is it!

Rout!

In the simulation of this game, the Lakers can be described as a rout!
It's not that these veterans of the Lakers don't work hard. Except for Howard, the others really can't keep up with the rhythm of the Thunder.

The Thunder are different from the Heat.

The Heat are also very talented, but not as restless as the Thunder!

Lei Ting's talent is the kind of thunder!

Fortunately, Dukang has a simulator. If he didn't simulate it, he would go straight to this game. In this game, the Thunder would be able to directly defeat the Lakers' ambition to compete for the championship.

This is absolutely no joke.

If the Lakers want to win the championship, they have to rush out of the West.

And the Thunder's advantage over the Lakers in this game made it impossible for the Lakers to see any possibility of defeating the Thunder.

If there is no hope of a championship, many of the atmospheres he created with the Lakers will be destroyed.

Then his control over the team will be directly cut in half.

If he can't win the championship this season, Jim Shumao will not be able to fulfill his promise.

In the next two seasons, will the Lakers still have a championship window?
In the end, he and Jim Sister still had to leave.

It's also horrible.

Fortunately, he can imitate and start over.

"Go on!"

In the first simulation, the reason was that the Lakers couldn't keep up with the talent and rhythm of the Thunder.

This group of Thunder youths are too irritable.

In the second simulation, Du Kang still didn't use the system, and it was still Xia Ji's eight dozen.

But the starting lineup has changed, with Earl Clark and Jordan Hill starting.

The starting lineup became Howard, Gasol, Jordan Hill, Earl Clark, and Kobe.

This is a small four big lineup.

It's messy, but Du Kang hopes that Gasol can use his back to suppress Ibaka, and that Jordan Hill and Clark can use their height and wingspan to fill the Lakers' penalty area and compress the space of Westbrook and Durant.

By the way, Yi Jianlian and Nash can win in the rotation.

Then this time, the Lakers were even worse.

The Lakers' starting lineup is too big, Westbrook doesn't care about these tall defensive players at all, as long as you can't keep up with him, he will kill in, no matter how many people, he will kill in.

What's even more frightening is that the Thunder has a backup point guard named Reggie Jackson on the bench. Like a little Westbrook, staring at Nash and the Lakers rotation is a hard fuck.

Reggie Jackson brought Kevin Martin to blow up the Lakers' rotation.

Nima's!
"It's too fierce!"

The Thunder are a fierce team.

Westbrook is also fierce and scary.

The tall lineup of Du Kang's platoon is scary, and the effect of scaring James is very good.

But Westbrook is really not afraid, and is not intimidated at all.

Dare to buckle up while riding Howard, can you believe it?

James would be dumbfounded when he saw it, this is Howard, how dare you!
"This shit is a point guard?!"

Originally, Du Kang thought that Durant should be the most difficult to defend against the Thunder.

He really didn't expect that the most energetic player in the game was Westbrook, and it was Westbrook who gave him the most headache.

He didn't have the energy to think about defending Durant at all, and Westbrook made him a little unbearable.

And Durant...

Well, Du Kang finished the game, looked at Durant's technical statistics, 20 of 12, 36 points.

Damn, how did you get this 36?
How come I don't have any impression?
Why is Durant unknowingly 30+?
On the contrary, why is Westbrook only 24 of 10 and only 30 points?
Du Kang recalled the scene of the game and looked at the technical statistics of the Thunder after the game. The more he looked at it, the more miraculous he felt.

From his first impression of watching the game, Westbrook is very threatening and too lethal.

It can be said that the Lakers were killed all over the field, from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside, as vigorous as a beast.

What should we do now?
Facing this ferocious Westbrook, Du Kang felt that he had used up all the defensive players the Lakers could use.

Nash did not go up.

When Kobe came up, he couldn't stop it, and if he came up with a big man to scare people, he couldn't be scared either.

Facing such a vigorous Westbrook, Du Kang was too scared to let Nash start.

How dare Nash face Westbrook directly.

He was really afraid that Nash would be defeated by Westbrook, so who would he cry for?

What should we do now?
Du Kang gritted his teeth!

"Continue not to use the system, continue Xia Ji's eight strikes!"

"Starting Howard, Yi Jianlian, Artest, Kobe, Nash!"

"Kobe defends Durant!"

"Nash, Nash defends Westbrook!"

"The first offensive point is still Nash!"

Since the defense can't stop it, then I won't defend it!

Even if you get shot 58, it's a big deal to start all over again!

Fight!

……

……

Miami.

"LeBron, is your groin okay?"

"Just put some ice on it."

After James finished speaking, Wade breathed a sigh of relief.

LeBron has a strained groin, and he actually played against the Celtics, and he performed so well.

What is professionalism, this is it!
Wade looked at James with admiration.

Thinking of the scene where James couldn't help being covered in a towel after the game with the Lakers.

Wade comforted.

"LeBron, the game against the Lakers was an accident. Kobe and Yi can't be so accurate all the time. You didn't lose to anyone. It was an accident. It was also because of your injury. It won't be long. No one will remember that game. , will only remember that we defeated the Thunder and won the championship again!"

After Wade finished speaking, James nodded.

The Thunder is still the Heat's number one imaginary enemy.

Yep, no one will remember anytime soon!
As long as the Lakers lose, as long as Coach D loses, all the halo on him will disappear. Without the halo, no one will believe what he said.

And I am still that LeBron James!

That future will surpass Jordan and become the LeBron James of the basketball goat!

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on James' face.

"Dwyane, let's watch the game between the Thunder and the Lakers later."

He wants to see Coach D and that old Laker being crushed by those two goblins from the Thunder!

Those two goblins almost crushed the Heat!

"LeBron, they don't have any chance of winning."

James nodded, and this time, a smile appeared on his face.

And looking at the smile on James' face, Wade felt relieved.
