Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 57: Coach D who was almost crushed!

Because in the training hall of the Lakers, Du Kang noticed the strange movements of some staff members of the team, so Du Kang, who originally planned not to simulate the game against the Pelicans, chose to simulate the game.

It doesn't matter if it's not a simulation, but if it's a simulation, it really scared Du Kang to pee.

Originally, Du Kang thought that the current 16 wins and 33 losses of the Pelicans, even if Nash and Kobe truce, the morale of the Lakers should be superior, and coupled with the home court advantage, the possibility of losing is very small.

The Lakers have Howard, Yi Jianlian, Gasol, Artest, and Antawn Jamison.

Except for Antawn Jamison's ability value of 79.

The Lakers also have 4 players with an ability value above 80.

It stands to reason that there should be no problem in catching a pelican that is just bad.

Who knows, this time, the Pelicans made Du Kang and his Lakers look bad.

117 to 97, this is the score of the first simulation.

这场模拟比赛，霍华德13中9，罚球11中6，砍下了24分4篮板2助攻，易建联11中5，三分球3中0，砍下了12分6篮板，贾米森14中6，16分7篮板，加索尔4中1，罚球8中5，7分7篮板7助攻，阿泰斯特8中1，三分球6中1，3分。

The star players of the Lakers, whom Du Kang placed high hopes on, played like a defense.

Except for Howard, the others were directly overturned by Pelicans guard Eric Gordon.

Because of the lack of Kobe and Nash, the two guards, the Lakers, who already lacked guards, even lacked guards, lack of organization, and lack of speed.

And the smart Eric Gordon made the scalp of the Los Angeles Lakers show numb, and no one could stop him.

8 of 6 three-pointers in the game means that no one can defend the Lakers. Even if Meeks and Blake can follow up, it is meaningless to follow up.

Then the Pelicans also have insiders like Robin Lopez and Anthony Davis.

Robin Lopez scored 10 of 7 in this game, scored 16 points and 9 rebounds, including 6 offensive rebounds, which can be said to have blown Howard.

There is also Anthony Davis, who is very capable of mopping up. Originally, the Lakers lacked the speed of a guard to mobilize the defense. The Lakers have piled up a bunch of big men, which is most suitable for mopping up Anthony Davis. Anthony Davis doesn't need much Running can overwhelm the Lakers' offense.

So the big men who started the Lakers, except for Howard, have average offensive efficiency.

On the contrary, it was the substitute Earl Clark, who made 11 of 8 and 5 of 4 three-pointers in the game, which can be regarded as helping the Lakers regain some face.

Otherwise, the Lakers, who have maxed out their offense and defense in this game, will definitely not just lose by 20 points.

After the simulation, Du Kang replayed the game again, and suddenly found that although the Pelicans team has a poor record, the lineup is really not weak, and it is very reasonable!
The inside line is the standard inside line combination of Robin Lopez and Anthony Davis.

There are also practical combinations of one defense and one offense such as Aminu and Ryan Anderson on the front line.

On the back line, Eric Gordon is good at offense, Vasquez is good at organization, and Austin Rivers is good at assault.

It can be said that this Pelican has all types of players in it, is extremely practical, and is very suitable for playing that kind of targeted basketball.

It is especially suitable for a team with great shortcomings like the Lakers.

"What should I do? It feels like without Kobe and Nash, the Lakers can't beat the Pelicans!"

"Do you want to call Kobe and Nash back?"

After the original [-]-game winning streak, Du Kang was facing the belly again. The self-confidence that rose in Du Kang's heart disappeared after this simulation with the Pelicans.

"I still don't have enough thighs!"

If he had enough thighs, without Nash and Kobe, he wouldn't be so embarrassed by a mere pelican.

Two of the original three thighs were missing, and he suddenly became lame.

As a result, he can't advance now, and he can't retreat.

Bringing Kobe and Nash back, this will definitely not work.

This is not a matter of losing face.

The main reason is that the two of them were really exhausted in the last game. They fought against the Thunder for a whole game. If they played back-to-back like this, it would not be worth the loss for the Lakers.

"Could it be that I have to rely on my true strength to break the game?"

This is the first time Du Kang has encountered a situation where the personnel are not neat and the current lineup is obviously not as reasonable as the opponent's.

Fortunately, he can still simulate, and there is still room for mistakes.

"The head coach of the Pelicans, Monty Williams, is also a rookie head coach. I also have external support. I have no reason to be inferior to him, right?"

Thinking of this, Du Kang was a little excited.

There are famous coaches everywhere in the NBA, even if they are not famous coaches, many of them are senior coaches. With his current strength, he must be powerless to fight against them with real strength.

Therefore, a rookie opponent like Monty Williams is indeed very rare.

Du Kang feels that Monty Williams can be his whetstone!
Moreover, judging from the simulated game just now, the Pelicans don't look like a team with very powerful routines, which shows that Monty Williams is not the kind of very powerful coach.

In this way, he has cheats to imitate, and Monty Williams has a more reasonable lineup, and the two can be regarded as [-]-[-].

Therefore, he should be able to maintain confidence in Monty Williams.

"It just happened to be a coincidence this time, and it's a blessing in heaven!"

Thinking of this, Du Kang began to seriously study the Pelicans, preparing for the next simulation.

After replaying the game just now, Du Kang felt that although the current lineup of the Lakers is not so reasonable, the advantage is still obvious, that is, it is tall enough.

His previous starting lineup was Howard, Yi Jianlian, Artest, Meeks, and Blake. This is the standard starting lineup without Kobe and Nash.

Now Du Kang feels that this starter is not good.

It was too much of a disadvantage and too wasteful to pit Yi Jianlian against Brother Nongmei.

Without Nash and Kobe, the UAE can be the main attacker.

As the main attacker, you have to tap the opponent's colander like James, which is the best way to play for the team.

Unlimited singles like Kobe and Durant, if you meet anyone who plays singles, or even picks out the strong ones, it is sick and needs to be cured!

He just let Ah Lian's offensive strength meet thick eyebrows, but he is sick and needs treatment.

Center is still Howard, power forward for Gasol, small forward for Yi Jianlian, shooting guard Meeks, point guard Blake.

Artest substitute.

Gasol can bully thick eyebrows with strength, and Yi Jianlian can bully Aminu with height, this is just right.

As for the tactical system, of course there is no tactical system!

By the way, in the last simulated game, Earl Clark had a good touch. He could shoot three-pointers and open up space for the team, which can add some time. Maybe this simulation can also give some surprises.

After Du Kang carefully checked that there was nothing wrong with his formation, he began to continue the simulation.

Time and space changed, and Du Kang once again became the nearest audience of Staples.

Du Kang looked at the court expectantly, wanting to see if his well-arranged lineup could kill the rookie Monty Williams with revenge!
then……

Du Kang was dumbfounded when he saw the five starters of the Pelicans on the court.

How is it different from what you said!

In this game, the five starting players of the Pelicans are center Big Eyebrow, power forward Ryan Anderson, small forward Aminu, shooting guard Eric Gordon, and point guard Vasquez.

"Fuck, how did Monty Williams change?!"

This is the first time Du Kang has encountered such a situation.

When Du Kang used to simulate, the opponent team basically did not change the lineup. Even when the lineup changed, it was Du Kang who influenced the Heat's starting lineup through the war of words in the real world.

At other times, the opponents that Du Kang encountered during the simulation were actually in the same formation.

Just like D'Antoni will cling to his own style of play, most coaches in the NBA are actually not as good as D'Antoni.

According to legend, only when it comes to the playoffs, will the team change frequently and often play targeted games.

In the regular season, everyone is actually practicing their usual routines more, and even if there is a change, it is a change in the matchup of personnel.

Where, like Monty Williams, Nima's normal lineup with no characteristics in the previous game has changed to this obvious run and bomb style!
"Too fast, the Pelicans offense was too fast, Eric Gordon got out of the way again, he was like a dancer, and he stunned poor Meeks, oh my god, three points, Another three points!"

"Running! The Pelicans are running again, our fighters are too bulky, we can't catch them, Aminu dunks!"

"Wow, incredible dunk, China Yi broke through Ryan Anderson's defense, broke through Anthony Davis' defense, completed an incredible dunk, thought we saved a bit of face!"

……

……

In the system simulation, Du Kang watched the Lakers being beaten again by the Pelicans at home as close as possible.

If the last simulation, when the Pelicans played against the Lakers, was still covert, did not recognize their own advantages, and did not give full play to their speed and shooting advantages, then in this game, the Pelicans simply put themselves His speed and shooting advantages have been brought to the extreme.

This is for the Lakers' lack of Nash and Kobe's lineup!
This gave Du Kang the feeling that he was not standing opposite Monty Williams, but the old Nelson of the former Warriors!

The big men of the Lakers were caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Pelicans' guard shooters.

Du Kang's simulation design for this game was completely designed to deal with the Pelicans in the previous game, and it couldn't match the Pelicans who ran and bombed in the second game at all!
"Nima's!"

What the hell is going on with this Monty Williams?

Doesn't he have a system too?

Then I predicted him, and he predicted my prediction?

Thinking of this, Du Kang shook his head. Impossible. If he really had a system, he would have become famous a long time ago, and he would not be a nanny-type head coach for a big team.

Before watching Aunt Jenny and those people sneaking around, Du Kang knew that Nash and Kobe couldn't hide it from people if they didn't go out at night, so he was prejudged against him.

But Du Kang did not expect such a good targeting.

Is this Monty Williams really a rookie?
How can a rookie change the system so quickly?

Even if D'Antoni knew in advance that Duncan would not start and would not play offensively, this is the reality of most NBA head coaches.

D'Antoni is also a head coach at the big man level.

So, what the hell is going on here?

Du Kang couldn't figure it out.

Headache.

So the question is, how to simulate the next game?

In the next game, will Monty Williams use the regular lineup of the first game, or the running and bombing lineup of the second game?
"Fack! If my two thighs are still there, I don't care if you are in the regular lineup or the running and bombing lineup, I will kill you!"

Where is the headache like now.

This time, Du Kang realized how important Kobe and Nash meant to the Lakers.

In fact, he knew it before, but he didn't have such an intuitive expression.

This time, Du Kang finally realized the difficulties of the head coaches of ordinary NBA teams.

With only such a few people under your command, it is impossible to cover everything. Sometimes, you can only bet on your life, betting that your opponent has no means of restraint.

Bet that your opponent is also an ordinary head coach like you, not the kind of very toxic head coach like old Nelson and Popovich who are full of tricks.

Otherwise, if you want to line up before the game every game, you have to think about breaking your head.

Therefore, don't underestimate those NBA head coaches who have risen in small teams. They are all capable head coaches. At least, they are very powerful in certain aspects, and they have unique skills.

Du Kang breathed a sigh of relief to calm himself down a bit.

Head coaches like Monty Williams are rare in the NBA, but not without them.

"It's my luck to meet such a talented rookie head coach who dabbles in various systems and styles of play. I can have higher challenges and inspire me to grow better."

Thinking about it this way, Du Kang felt that he was in a much better mood.

Du Kang thought about it again. In order to cope with the possible regular lineup and the possible running and bombing lineup, he felt that he should make a more universal lineup.

The UAE is still too big to play small forward.

Starting center Howard, starting power forward Arab League, starting small forward Artest, starting point guard Meeks, starting point guard Blake.

For this simulation, Du Kang chose to go back to the starting lineup of the first time to balance it out.

However, the first offensive choice in this game, Du Kang chose Howard instead of the UAE.

Howard has a great advantage whether he is playing Robin Lopez or playing thick eyebrows. He has seen it in these two games.

Robin Lopez is too slow and inflexible, and the thick eyebrows are too thin and not strong enough.

As long as Howard can beat Robin Lopez or the thick eyebrows, no matter whether the Pelicans play the regular system or the run and bomb system, the Lakers will be the winner in the end, the dominant side!
Du Kang, who once again cleared his mind, felt that he was doing well again.

"This time I must beat Monty Williams, no matter what tactics he arranges, I can win!"

After all, this is the third time.

Nothing more than three.

After all, this is the same rookie head coach as himself!

"Ding, do you want to spend 100MP to restart the simulation?"

Sure!

After Du Kang made his choice, the space-time screen changed again, and Du Kang once again came to the Staples Arena where the audience cheered.

"This time, it will definitely work!"

Du Kang was secretly cheering for himself.

At Westbrook's place yesterday, he was beaten to the point of collapse, and he hasn't recovered yet.

This time when he met this poisonous Monty Williams, if it was like yesterday, Du Kang felt that he might not be able to recover in a short time.

In short, Du Kang was very nervous at this time.

Then, looking at the field, Du Kang was dumbfounded again.

Robin Lopez, Anthony Davis, Jason Smith, Aminu, Eric Gordon...

Three big men over 7 feet, plus a 2-meter-06 wing who can run and jump, and a guard with very strong offensive and assault capabilities.

Except for Robin Lopez, the three big men can shoot on the offensive end, and then shrink to the basket on the defensive end.

Yes, in this game, the Lakers didn't suffer a disastrous defeat like the previous two games.

However, why did Du Kang feel that this game was even more aggrieved?

Just like when other NBA teams played against the Pistons, the 76ers, and Larry Brown's team back then, the blunt knife cut the flesh, just cut slowly, cut.

Howard, who was set up by Du Kang, faced such a crowded inside line, and the offense could not be played at all.

Yi Jianlian and other big players of the Lakers also struggled in the face of the thick eyebrow sweep.

None of the big men of the Lakers can kill their opponents and break the game.

But the Pelicans have a player like Eric Gordon who can disrupt the situation on the outside and tear apart the Lakers.

Then, Du Kang and his Lakers were cut to death with one knife.

so miserable...

……

……

"Monty-Williams!!!"

……

……

What the hell!

Clifford, who was just about to come in to find Du Camp, was startled when he heard Du Camp's shout.

What's the matter, coach?
Thrilled?
Clifford quickly pushed the door open and went in, he was stunned by the scene inside.

"My goodness!"

Looking at Du Kang, who was writing and drawing with his eyes full of red, as if he was studying tactics, Clifford was really dumbfounded.

It was the first time he saw Du Kang studying the next game so hard.

Even facing the Heat and the Thunder before, Du Kang has never been this crazy, has he?
"Du, are you okay?"

Clifford walked up to Du Kang and asked with concern.

"I am fine."

Du Kang took a deep breath to make himself look calmer, and his usual calm smile appeared on his face.

"Today, I know what a real genius is, and I was blown away."

"..."

Aren't you the most powerful talent coach in the world?

Clifford looked puzzled.

Du Kang finally shook his head, his pride prevented him from explaining more.

However, he is indeed not as good as Monty Williams.

Damn, he actually saw old Nelson, Larry Brown, Pat Riley, and Popovich's UCLA pass in a rookie head coach who was also a rookie!
Although they are not systematic, they can indeed be seen!

"However, no matter how talented you are, as long as I still have MP, I don't believe I can't kill you!"

Clifford was surprised to find that Du Kang, who was a little decadent just now, became full of confidence again.

Well, this is the boss I know well!
……

……

"Mr. Nelson's run and gun can target the Lakers without Kobe and Nash."

"Mr. Larry Brown's one offense and four defenses can also bully the Lakers who lack outside lethality."

"Mr. Pat Riley's fast forward formation seems to be able to bring down the Lakers who have lost their speed."

"By the way, Popo's air cut to pull Howard out of the basket seems to be very useful. After all, I have so many good shooters inside."

"Headache, too many choices, it is also a headache."

After Monty Williams told these former mentors that the Lakers will be without Kobe and Nash in the next game, these big guys are very concerned about the separation from the most talented and powerful young talent coach in the NBA recently. Everyone is very enthusiastic about the empty match.

It was the first time he had seen these big guys try their best and explain tactics to him in such a delicate way.

Let's put it this way, Monty Williams feels like he's learned more in the past few hours than he's grown in the past two years.

"I really want to thank Coach D!"

If it weren't for Coach D, these big guys with many disciples and a lot of work, who would care about him, a fringe figure in every NBA circle who has no circle, but can be mixed in every circle.

How could he be given so many ways to kill the Lakers.

With so many ways to kill the Lakers and Coach D, he has difficulty choosing.

As a decent person, you asked the bosses for their methods, and the bosses also gave good methods. If you say you don’t adopt it, it will be disrespectful.

The bosses are watching the next game. They have worked so hard to fight against Coach D in the air. If you say that they have spoiled their interest, do you want to hang out in the future?

"It seems that I have no choice."

After thinking about this, Monty Williams felt that he had really thought too much before.

"Since there is no choice, since each is useful, then use them all?"

"Isn't it just right to use one type for each section?"

"Also, no matter how exhaustive and clever Coach D is, it's impossible for him to guess my creative style of play, right?"

Thinking of this, Monty Williams became excited.

"When the time comes, I will give Coach D a surprise and give the world a surprise!"

……

……

shit!
Du Kang, who simulated for the sixth time, felt humiliated!
Is it tolerable or unbearable!

Isn't this showing off your skills in front of rookies!
You are a genius, you are amazing!

But is it necessary to bully people like this!
Du Kang felt that his mentality was a little broken.

He felt that he had met the so-called enemy of his life!

"Since you didn't talk about martial arts first, don't blame me!"

Du Kang thought viciously.

Keep simulating!

……

……

On February 2013, 2, at 8:10 in the evening, Los Angeles, Staples, the Lakers vs. Pelicans game is about to start.

Du Kang finally saw the man who almost broke his mentality, a black coach with a bright smile.

"Coach D, hello."

"Monty, hello, I've heard of you for a long time."

Long-awaited name?

Monty Williams looked at Du Kang suspiciously, always feeling that behind Du Kang's sunny smile was full of malice.

Is it my delusion?
……

……

"It's going to be a lot of fun."

fun?

Bobo, are you hiding something from me again?

"Who are you playing?"

Coach D, of course.

What fun can Monty have.

No, Monty was fun too.

He should have consulted Larry and Mr. Nelson, right?

It's even more interesting if that's the case.

Ha ha.
