Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 50 Exploding Westbrook!
In the game between the Lakers and the Thunder, Du Kang's defensive formation scared the Lakers fans at home enough.

The first game Du Kang coached was also at home. In that game, Du Kang also played Kobe at the beginning of the game, and was booed by all the Lakers fans.

Booing until Du Kang reused Nash, and Nash blocked Hayward to complete the block lore, the Lakers fans at the scene stopped their booing, and at the same time they recognized Du Kang's coaching in the game.

I thought that after the five consecutive trips in the East, the relationship between the team's head coach Du Kang and Kobe had eased. In the last game against the Heat, Du Kang even defended Kobe.

Unexpectedly, Du Kang didn't even do superficial work, and even as soon as he returned to the home court, he couldn't wait to mess with Kobe in front of the Los Angeles fans.

Kobe is the leader of the team and one of the strongest scorers in the league. Although he is excellent both offensively and defensively, he cannot be used as a pure defensive knife like Leonard of the Spurs.

James, Wade, these perimeter super giants with excellent offense and defense, all of them are more offensive than defensive.

It's good now, let Kobe do Artest's work, let alone whether Kobe can do it well, such an arrangement itself is wrong.

If it weren't for Du Kang's winning every game he coached, it would be very convincing, making everyone feel that the Lakers would not be able to win a game without Du Kang.

Just like D'Antoni lost 12 of 10 games back then.

After Du Kang took over, the schedule of these six games was much more difficult than that of D'Antoni. Coupled with Kobe's poor state, if it weren't for Du Kang, it would not be impossible for the Lakers to lose all six games.

It is precisely because the six games Du Kang coached were so indisputably powerful that he went from the most hated person in Los Angeles to the favorite person, ranking above Jim Shu and Kobe.

Well, although it is the reason for the popular traffic, maybe it will be scattered after a gust of wind.

But this can also show that at the moment, Du Kang is indeed very popular with Los Angeles fans.

Whether it is the record or the stylish coaching style, I like it.

Let's put it this way, Lakers fans have now identified Du Kang, and no one will be the head coach except Du Kang.

Coupled with the special relationship between Du Kang and Jim Shu, Lakers fans feel that Du Kang and the Lakers are a match made in heaven, and they will be the heads of the Lakers for decades to come.

If Du Kang makes someone not Kobe...

Even if the person Du Kang is messing with is Kobe, at this time...

"If I were Coach D, I wouldn't need to keep Bryant, right? With Bryant at the core, the window to win the championship has passed. In the past six games, Coach D has proved that even without Bryant, he can do well." Leading the team to win, he is different from a head coach like Phil Jackson. If the reconstruction is to be completed within three years, the big contracts of Bryant and Gasol are obstacles for the team. The market signs a big-name super giant, and the Lakers will soon have the strength to compete for the championship."

"How can you say such a thing! That is Kobe Bryant, one of the symbols of the Los Angeles Lakers. Letting him go is disrespectful to him!"

"It would be disrespectful to Bryant to let Bryant be the younger brother of Howard or other super giants in the Lakers! Bryant is 35 years old, and it's time for him to return to his roots and enjoy the glory."

"Can't Bryant enjoy the glory in Los Angeles and must return to Philadelphia?!"

"If it weren't for Jim's three-year commitment to win the championship, Kobe could of course stay in Los Angeles to enjoy the final glory, but if the Lakers don't win the championship for three years, Jim will leave, and Jim will leave if he leaves Coach D. It’s a matter of choosing only one!”

"The Lakers have too many veterans. There is no precedent for a team with so many veterans in NBA history. Coach D chose Nash and gave up Kobe. A player of his caliber is an assistant to other people."

"Damn Jenny! If it wasn't for her, Jim wouldn't have given that damn promise at all. I would wait for Kobe and Coach D for ten years, or even 20 years!"

……

……

It's really hard to imagine that the final choice of the diehard Lakers fans at the scene was so real after a short silence and a short quarrel.

More diehard Lakers fans have already favored Du Kang at this time.

In the choice between Du Kang and Kobe, diehard Lakers fans began to lean more towards Du Kang.

Of course, in the end, whether it is Humi who supports Dukang, or Comey and Humi who support Kobe, at the end, they are all greeting Jenny Buss.

Because from the standpoint of Du Kang and Kobe, a reasonable person would not blame either of them.

It's all Jenny Buss' fault, so Du Kang and Kobe can only kill each other!

Aunt Jenny at the scene was very embarrassed.

She is smart, but she doesn't think that everyone is a fool. When Du Kang just took over, her offensive was so fierce, how could she not show any traces.

Except for her, no one in the Los Angeles Lakers will make so many things.

"..."

At this time, Aunt Jenny listened to the greetings in her ear, although she was still watching the game on the court, she still kept an elegant smile on her face.

But in my heart, it must be MMP!
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Jenny Buss kept her eyes on the court.

Kobe on the court is still like a blue-collar, like a defensive role, like Leonard of the Spurs, like Tony Allen of the Grizzlies, pestering Durant all over the court, preventing him from receiving the ball and preventing him from dribbling.

Westbrook on the court, after seeing Durant being so tightly entangled by Kobe, and Nash in front always let him go, Westbrook has also been rushing his own zombie jumper in biubiubiu.

"This young man really wants to develop Nash's defense to replace Kobe!"

"This young man is really determined to help Jim and get Kobe away!"

After reaching this conclusion, Jenny Buss got up immediately.

"Jenny?"

"I don't want to watch the game, I'm going to my father's place, hurry up!"

"..."

Jenny Buss whispered to the assistant next to her, and left in a hurry.

Seeing the back of Jenny Buss leaving, Jim Buss frowned.

The assistant next to him was worried at this time.

"Jim, Jenny must be reporting to Mr. Bass again!"

Jenny Buss likes to report to Old Buss, and the entire Los Angeles Lakers know it.

Normally, Old Buss would just listen to it and finish it.

So Jim Bass generally doesn't care. Is he still underestimated by Jenny?
Dad is not an old fool.

Jenny wanted Dad to be an old fool.

In fact, in recent days, maybe the Lakers have been winning, and Dad is in good spirits, even better than before he was hospitalized.

But this time...

Jim Buss looked at Du Kang on the big screen at the scene.

He really moved someone who shouldn't be moved!
This time, he really crossed the line!
"Jim?"

"Let's go too!"

"But……"

Isn't this hitting the muzzle?

The assistant looked puzzled, Jenny wished that Jim would go over now, so that it would be done once and for all.

"The Lakers can live without me, but not without him!"

Be sure to save him!
Even if he wants to touch Kobe, I will keep him!

I leave with Kobe!

"..."

The assistant looked at Jim Buss' firm back and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

In the end, there was a sigh and a wry smile.

"No wonder Jenny always likes to call him an idiot..."

You and Kobe are gone, Jenny is in power, the Lakers have completed the reconstruction, and also left Coach D to Jenny, isn't this going to let Jenny kill three birds with one stone?

but……

"Such a 'stupid' boss can't be hated."

……

……

On the court, because of Du Kang's special defensive lineup tonight, the Lakers were overwhelmed by the Thunder as soon as they came up.

At the beginning of the game, Thunder's head guard Westbrook hit 3 zombie jumpers in a row against Nash.

Westbrook's zombie jumper is really interesting. Others' emergency stop jumpers are all with backwards to avoid the defender.

This is true even for a mid-range shooting god like Jordan. NBA defensive players, even Jordan, dare not underestimate him.

But Westbrook's zombie jumper is different. It goes straight up and down, and even leans forward a little, just like looking for a defensive player.

If it is just for shooting fouls, it is definitely not cost-effective. The referee cannot call shooting fouls so frequently.

There is no problem with one or two forward leans or forward kicks for shooting fouls.

But if you adjust your regular skills like this, then there is only one possibility, and that is self-confidence!
The head guard of the Thunder is also too confident.

Treating NBA defensive players is like air.

He does have such self-confidence, he can really jump high, the average player can't block his zombie jump shot at all.

Whether he can enter or not is really up to him.

It doesn't matter who is in front of you, if I want to pull you out, I will pull you out without any pretense!

At the same time, this kind of difficult zombie jump shot always likes to shoot against people. Of course it is cowhide if it goes in, but it is a mess if it doesn't go in.

Generally speaking, such a zombie jump shot is an impetuous shot in the eyes of the coach.

Fighting the Lakers, how can you keep shooting from the outside, kill in, kill in, kill through these old men!
Therefore, for the Lakers, using Kobe and those tall and defensive players to defend Westbrook is to encourage him to rush and make Westbrook play reasonable.

With his personality, it was Howard, and he could kill him. Howard was too precious to the Lakers. If he really wanted to kill him for a few fouls, Du Kang would really cry to death.

During the simulation, Du Kang was really killed and cried by Westbrook.

Du Kang finally realized that he still had to defend against Nash. A defender like Nash even let you go. With Westbrook's playing style and personality, it would be rude if you didn't pull up.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

After Westbrook made three consecutive hits, he immediately hit three irons in a row.

That is to say, the Lakers can't play fast break now, and a group of outside veterans can't play fast break directly. If they want to change to a team like the Heat, with Westbrook's unreasonable fight, James has already appeared under the Thunder's basket .

After Westbrook made three consecutive hits in the opening game, the audience on the Internet was already in a carnival.

"Coach D's whole job is probably going to be hammered to death by Russell!"

"Coach D doesn't really think that MVP and MVP are the same. Nash can also defend Russell?"

"Russell feels underestimated, anger value +1000, coach D and Nash, pawn!"

Lakers fans all over the Internet are shivering.

However, the fans on the Internet did not have a carnival for a long time. Westbrook, who started the game so well, suddenly hit the iron.

And the kind that can't be cleaned up with one iron.

For a moment, the netizens who were still carnival just now were instantly dumbfounded.

"Fuck, Nash can't really guard Russell, can he?!"

"The key is that Nash just stood there and did nothing. Can this be regarded as Nash's defense?"

"Obviously the same shot, the defensive strength of the shot, why is the shot so unstable when the front is able to swipe in, and the iron behind it is so unstable?!"

If it weren't for Westbrook's "fans' happy ball", a game can always give you a lot of reversals.

Otherwise, Du Kang wouldn't be caused by Westbrook's neurasthenia.

Then he came to the conclusion that the game against the Thunder should be simulated less if possible.

It's not good for the heart of Thunder fans to watch too many Thunder games and shorten their lives.

In fact, the same is true of the Thunder's opponents.

After Westbrook hit the iron three times in a row, it was obvious that he was a bit over the top.

This is Nash!
Once Westbrook is on the top, when defending, it is easy to lose focus and use too much force.

Looking back, Nash, who was running without the ball, ran out of a three-point opportunity, received a point from Yi Jianlian, and shot from outside the three-point line.

Westbrook is really fierce, even if he is out of position, when he jumps from a distance to block the shot, it looks like he is flying in the air. Ordinary offensive players will definitely be intimidated.

However, this person is Nash!

Facing Westbrook's massive but ineffective block, Nash directly ignored it.

A swipe!
Three point hit!

8 is better than 8!

With this three-pointer, the Lakers tied the score.

Seeing that the score was tied by the Lakers, the three TNT commentators and the Lakers fans were dumbfounded.

After the start of the game, Thunderclap was definitely the one taking the initiative, the momentum was like a thunderbolt, and the momentum was overwhelming.

But it was a fight, why did it suddenly come to a tie?

Even Clifford, who was already trembling next to Du Kang, was a little dumbfounded.

As far as the Thunder are overwhelming the Lakers on the court, the Lakers may collapse at any time.

How did it end up tied?
Clifford looked at Du Kang, who was squinting and smiling, in surprise. The coach must have expected it a long time ago.

No wonder they were so calm after the match started!

In fact, the language of the scene at this time is the same. Whether it is the TV audience or the live commentator watching Du Kang who is calm at this time, they all think the same way.

As far as Westbrook's style of play is concerned, the average audience really can't stand the ups and downs.

And Du Kang can be so calm, if you say that there is no prediction, it would be strange!

"Coach D is not messing around. He really has research on Russell. The league's defense against Russell will change in the future!"

"Maybe for Russell, the effect of defending with Nash is the same as defending with Kobe!"

"Excellent, this can be found by Coach D, those of you who boast that your skills and tactics are better than Coach D, shouldn't you be ashamed!"

Popovich in front of the TV was really ashamed.

Because his old Spurs have been humiliated by Westbrook, he plans to use Leonard to defend against the Thunder in the next game!

Danny Green can't defend, so don't you have to use Leonard?
This is actually the thinking of a normal person, a professional head coach.

As a normal professional head coach, who would have thought that if Danny Green couldn't defend, maybe using Parker or Ginobili to defend would have the same effect?

Maybe even better?

"Whether it's the defense against James or against Westbrook, this kind of unconventional defensive method may really only be done by a rookie like Coach D!"

Popovich felt that it was impossible to refuse!
"But... Westbrook is not just about attacking with the ball."

Popovich had a smile on his face.

Westbrook's post-up is definitely not as good as Kobe's.

But, Nash, can it be prevented?

Nash couldn't even guard against Parker's post-up singles!

On TV, Westbrook's offense did not directly pull out this time.

Facing Nash who was fighting and retreating, Westbrook sat on Nash without saying a word.

"I'll see how you hide now!"

He was really angry. Nash, an old guy, dared to fight back in front of him just now!
Don't you know that I hate people shooting three-pointers in front of me the most!

After being blasted by Curry's little weak chicken in the last game, he is now uncomfortable seeing his opponent shoot three-pointers.

At this time, Nash behind him seemed to overlap with Curry!
Westbrook is a very dynamic person. His skills are not as good as Kobe's, but he is fierce enough!
One push!
Two pushes!

Three pushes!

"This birthday present, do you like it!"

He simply treated Nash behind him as air, and when he turned around, he had no defense at all!

then……

Clap!
When Westbrook, who had split his legs and jumped in the air, looked at his empty hands, he was dumbfounded!
"Fake!"

In fact, watching Nash suddenly rushing out with the ball on the court, the three commentators of TNT and the entire Staples were dumbfounded.

Except Kobe and Yi Jianlian.

Both players on the pitch.

Durant, Howard, Ibaka, Artest, everyone was dumbfounded at the speeding Lakers No. 10!
Outside the three-point line, the Thunder players who came back to their senses were chasing.

Nash jumped up lightly and rolled out the basketball in his hand.

And almost at the same time, the young head coach who was looked at by the whole world with shocked eyes finally stood up.

Smiling, he stretched out his right hand with three fingers up.

A swipe!
After a moment of silence.

Boom!
Staples is boiling!
"Gift, I like it very much."

Nash turned around with a smile.

Do not take away a speck of dust.

"..."

Westbrook's eyes blazed.

This sentence was written on his face at this time: I'm going to be superior, I'm going to get mad, I'm going to kill this old man, and I'm going to tell you what Kobe is!
