Du Kang's first training session with the Lakers lasted only two hours and ended quickly.
This public training session, which was highly anticipated by the entire NBA, disappointed all reporters present.
The newly appointed head coach of the Lakers seems completely unaware that he and Jim Buss, who signed him, are now being burned crazily on the fire.
Even though they were already in such danger, they were still enjoying themselves there playing with Yi Jianlian, Howard and Nash.
Even Jim Shu's people couldn't stand it at the training ground and went to report to Jim Shu, let alone other people.
Aunt Jenny just bought a bunch of Los Angeles tabloids yesterday, bragging about him crazily, and frantically setting the pace in the newspapers, saying that if Jim Buss misses Du Kang, Jim Buss will be the sinner of the Lakers.
There are rumors that many NBA teams are already preparing to poach Du Kang, forcing Jim Shu to make him a regular player in advance.
When Jim Shumao really turned Du Kang into a regular player ahead of schedule, and after Du Kang's poor performance in his first training session, Aunt Jenny launched a new offensive with another face.
It’s really the same group of tabloids.
The reports yesterday and today are completely different, or a 180-degree turn.
"The Los Angeles Lakers may have the worst head coach in team history, and the purple and gold nobles will be wiped out!" 》
"Jim Buss actually turned a 23-year-old head coach who couldn't even arrange team training into a regular coach. He made the Los Angeles Lakers the biggest joke in the NBA! 》
"Jim Buss is embarrassed by his heavy responsibility, and China Du makes people despair. On his deathbed, Jerry Buss secretly recruits Jerry West to return to Los Angeles, and Jeanie Buss may take over the Lakers!" 》
…
…
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Jerry Buss is indeed worried about the current situation of the Lakers.
But he has terminal cancer, and many things are already open to him. His life is about to come to an end. What else can he not see open to?
Jerry West is indeed here now. In fact, it's not just Jerry West. Jerry Buss also recently summoned Magic, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, O'Neal and a bunch of other Lakers stars.
He actually didn't have any other ideas. He mainly wanted to review the glory of his Lakers career by meeting these old friends.
"Jerry, I know the current situation of the Lakers is very bad. In fact, since you left, the Lakers have been in chaos. If it hadn't been for Paul's deal..."
"That was a fair deal. The Grizzlies got their future and completed their rebuild."
Jerry Buss was stunned for a moment after being interrupted, then smiled and nodded.
"You're right, that was a very fair deal. If it hadn't been for this fair deal, the Lakers might have been in chaos for ten years, or even continued to be in chaos."
"You are too pessimistic."
Jerry West sighed.
"No, I'm not pessimistic. I know Jim and Jenny too well. You are Jim's teacher. In fact, you know him better than I do."
"You can hand the team over to Jenny."
"Jenny..."
Jerry Buss sighed deeply.
"Maybe handing over the Lakers to Jenny is a more realistic option, but I'm afraid that one day, you will have to buy tickets when you go back to Staples to watch a game."
After Jerry Buss finished speaking, he looked at the stunned Jerry West, with a smile on his old face.
"I want to protect the Lakers culture we built together, although I know Jim may not be able to protect it in the end."
"..."
Jerry West looked at Jerry Buss in shock, and finally closed his eyes, with an expression of relief on his face.
"The new head coach Jim found, if you give him time, will definitely be extraordinary."
"Yeah……"
Jerry Buss pondered for a moment and smiled again.
"I believe in Jerry's vision and hope they can pass on our spirit to the Lakers. As long as our spirit is still there, we will always be there."
"God willing, you will have your wish."
After Jerry West left, Jerry Buss called in a bunch more people.
These people are obviously his children, except for Jim Bass and Jenny Bass.
"As for control of the Lakers, I want you to always support Jim."
…
…
"Jenny, everything goes well!"
"Um."
Jenny Bass nodded with satisfaction.
The Los Angeles tabloids, under the control of Aunt Jenny, began to build momentum for themselves and prepare for the transition of power in the Lakers after the death of Buss.
Just waiting for Du Kang to lead the Lakers back from the East in a panic, and take advantage of the situation to overthrow Jim Buss.
Jim Bass is an arrogant and proud man. This kind of person is the easiest to deal with.
Even if his father Bass had been trying to protect him, he couldn't.
As long as Jim Bass is determined to resign and leave, who can keep him?
Jenny Buss never thought about replacing her daddy.
She knew very well that her father would never change.
She has always forced Jim Bass to get out!
When everyone thinks Jim Buss is a waste, it is the best choice for the Lakers if he leaves, he will not stay!
Now everything is ready, all that is needed is the east wind!
And Dongfeng is the Lakers' record on the Eastern Conference road trip!
…
…
"Du, there's a rush over there in Los Angeles, but you're not worried at all!"
Du Kang is not worried about his head coach position, nor is he worried about Jim Buss' boss position, he is worried about his chief assistant coach position!
Du Kang, who was being frantically beaten by the Los Angeles media at this time, had brought the Lakers to Detroit.
"Actually, some of what they said makes sense."
"..."
Looking at the stunned Ham, Du Kang smiled.
He really doesn't know how to arrange tactical training and system training.
He is indeed the worst head coach in Lakers history.
only……
He and Jim Sham wouldn't be jerks!
No matter how powerful Aunt Jenny is, Jim also has a righteous reputation.
As long as he can lead the Lakers to keep winning, no matter how powerful Aunt Jenny is, she can't touch Jim.
Therefore, the key is to win, and to win beautifully, to win in a way that shows his value.
As long as the world is told that the Lakers cannot win without him, then his value will be reflected.
His value is reflected, which is equivalent to the value of Jim Shu.
Du Kang in the hotel looked at Nash's player card on the system and was thinking about whether he should use the 1100 MP again.
The situation is now more dangerous than he imagined, and he wants to add a little more weight.
The UAE side is not yet able to use it, and the Lakers' biggest loophole right now, as the entire league knows, is Nash.
There is no way to solve Nash's defensive problem.
But to solve the Nash problem, we can find another way to restore Nash's offensive threat. The best offense is defense.
Moreover, Nash is one of the two players that the Lakers have the highest opinion of, and he is also the key to opening up the Lakers' situation.
Nash's importance to him is naturally self-evident.
The stronger Nash becomes, the greater his control over the Lakers.
Through the last game, he already understood some of Nash's current situation.
Nash's current skills are still very good. Compared with him at his peak, the biggest decline is his physical strength.
As long as Nash improves his physical attributes, his offensive strength, not to mention returning to its peak, will be at least 70% to 80%, or even 80% to 90%. After all, Nash has never been a player who relies on physical talent to play.
As long as this kind of technical player can keep up with his physical fitness, he will reach his peak for a long time.
In fact, the peak end age on Nash's player card is 40 years old.
In other words, his abilities and attributes declined significantly after he reached the age of 40.
During the peak period, attributes also decline. Generally speaking, technical attributes will not decrease much, physical attributes will decrease, and physical strength will decrease even more.
Du Kang was thinking while looking at Nash's player card.
Even though Nash's overall rating is only 85, his player card is really gorgeous.
92 mid-range shots, 93 three-pointers, 91 free throws, 91 ball control, 92 passing accuracy, 93 passing insight, 92 passing IQ, 93 passing vision, 91 shooting IQ...
As long as the attributes related to shooting and passing are all above 90.
Du Kang even suspected that when Nash was at his peak, all of these attributes were above 95.
The reason why Nash's overall rating is now only 85, Du Kang reasonably suspects, is all because of his physical and defensive attributes.
In fact, Nash's current mid-range shooting, three-point scoring, and organization are all rated A+, while his perimeter defense is D-, penalty area defense is F, rebounding is F, and athletic ability is F.
Those who are good are all A+, those who are not good are almost all D and F. Nash at his peak was partial to subjects, and now those who are partial to subjects are even better.
The main culprit that lowered Nash's athletic ability to F is Nash's strength of 25 and jumping of 39.
As an almost 39-year-old veteran, this is actually understandable.
What Du Kang is most concerned about is Nash's physical strength, which is now 79.
Nash's physical strength is worse than Yi Jianlian.
Although the physical exertion of outside players is less than that of inside players.
But Nash's current physical strength cannot support him to control the team's organization and offense throughout the game.
If the offense cannot suppress others, the pressure on the defense will be even greater.
Since Nash is to be reused, naturally Nash cannot be allowed to have only strength and no physical strength to support these strengths.
Moreover, what makes Du Kang covet Nash the most is not Nash's gorgeous organization and shooting attributes.
But his skills!
Nash now has 24 skills, which is naturally incomparable to Kobe's 58.
But these 24 skills of Nash are all purple and gold.
This is cowhide.
If Kobe's 58 skills reflect comprehensiveness, offense and defense, he can do everything.
Nash is the ultimate partial subject.
Purple Perfect Assist: Enhances teammates’ shooting percentage when receiving the ball in the open space.
Purple Ball Protector: Reduces the chance of being intercepted by defenders
Purple special delivery: Increase the success rate of alley-oops and the hit rate after fancy passes.
Purple Playmaker: When this player is on the court, his teammates will receive an offensive attribute bonus.
Purple Slip: The possibility of using difficult passes to shred the defense
In addition to these five purple skills, there are also golden fearless terminators, golden three-point agents, golden mid-range shooters, golden key shooters, golden sharpshooters, golden dribbling experts, golden dribbling veterans, and golden skills. There are 19 golden skills such as the combo killer, the golden dislocation expert, and the golden ball-fighting madman.
Every time he saw Nash's skill list, Du Kang's eyes were dazzled.
Do you think this is all?
Nash's shooting hot spot is even more shocking.
14 shooting areas, all red!
What is this concept?
This is called shooting without blind spots!
Even for Kobe, the player with the strongest scoring ability in NBA history, his shooting hot zone only has 7 red spots.
In fact, 7 dollars is already a lot. Most of the Lakers players basically have one or two red dollars mixed with a bunch of blue ones.
The blue one is cold.
Like Nash, all 14 areas are all red, and Du Kang has seen Nash now.
Also, Nash’s character.
Team spirit: LV4 (highest level)
Pat me on the back: LV3
Silent: LV2
Professional ethics: LV3
Ultimate Trailblazer: LV2
Ultimate power: LV3
If you are a pure rookie, how much MP do you need to develop so many skills, such a good hot zone, and such a good character?
A purple skill is 10,000, and 5 of it is 50,000. A gold skill is 6,000, and 19 is 114,000.
Just to order skills, you need to order more than 160,000!
Adding in 14 all-hot areas for 28,000 and 5 very good characters, it costs 50,000 for this level.
A rookie with an overall rating of 85 needs at least 200,000 MP to improve Nash's skills, personality, and hot spots!
So the question is, are there many rookies with an overall rating of 85?
There may not be an 85-year-old rookie in a big year of the draft.
"Instead of betting on luck in the draft, wouldn't it be more advantageous to find veterans who have already been developed and have full skills?"
The price-performance ratio of these veterans is too high, so many skills are all MP, and each of them is a rich man who has deposited hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands!
"It would take hundreds of thousands of MPs to find a young point guard and transform him into someone like Nash. If you find Nash himself and restore his physical strength, you may only need a few thousand MPs to use a Nash who is at 80% of his peak."
Veterans are all big money.
Rookies are losers.
Which one is more fragrant?
Obviously, for a system rookie like Du Kang who doesn't have much MP, it's much better to stick with a veteran than a rookie.
"Ding, Nash's peak physical strength is 92. To restore the player's physical strength to that level, the MP required is halved."
"Ding, do you want to spend 1000 MP to increase Nash's physical strength from 79 to 84?"
yes!
"Ding, no training plan is needed for attribute recovery. Ding, your player Nash's physical attributes have been increased to 84."
…
…
"I didn't expect that our coach is not only a top student at UCLA, but his father is also a university professor."
"The coach comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and his father is a professor at the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
"Traditional Chinese medicine? Does the coach know the mysterious Chinese medicine?"
Seeing Nash's eyes shining at this time, Yi Jianlian smiled.
Here in the United States, Chinese medicine and Kung Fu are very mysterious.
But at home...
Well, there are many people who believe it and even more people who don’t believe it, and it’s very controversial.
Traditional Chinese medicine itself is a relatively metaphysical thing.
After Du Kang became popular, the ancestral graves of the Du Kang family were about to be dug out.
Du Kang was born in a rural area in Shendu, Central Plains Province, and his family is said to be a family of imperial doctors. No one can tell whether it is true or not. The legend can be traced back to being an imperial doctor for Wu Zetian.
By Du Kang's father's generation, the family had already fallen into decline. Du Kang's grandfather was a barefoot doctor in the countryside.
Du Kang himself grew up in the countryside with his grandparents.
Du Kang's father can be regarded as having a family background. Now he has made a counterattack from the son of a barefoot doctor to become a professor at the Central Plains University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Du Kang himself dropped out of school due to some special reasons in his senior year of high school. Instead of participating in the Gaokao, he chose to study abroad and was admitted to UCLA.
Judging from domestic media reports, the coach does know Chinese medicine. After all, he grew up with his grandfather, so he should have some knowledge.
Because the Lakers suddenly came to a fellow Dukang fellow.
As Nash, who has the best relationship with Yi Jianlian, naturally wants to learn more about Du Kang from Yi Jianlian.
After the Lakers came to Detroit, Nash, who took the initiative to live with Yi Jianlian, pulled Yi Jianlian to get more information about Du Kang from Yi Jianlian.
The more he got to know him, the more Nash felt that his young head coach was mysterious.
My coach has so many BUFFs on his body, no wonder he is so mysterious.
Just when Yi Jianlian and Nash were chatting about Du Kang, the conversation was heated.
Howard opened the door and came in.
"Steve, I want you to come over here."
"Coach asked me, does Dwight know something?"
"You'll know if you go there."
After calling Nash away, Howard did not leave, but looked at Yi Jianlian with a smile.
"Yi, let's go, I'll take you to see some good things."
"..."
Yi Jianlian originally wanted to refuse.
But, it’s really hard to refuse such kindness.
Howard was so good to him!
…
…
"Bryant, what's wrong?"
"Dwight just came out of the coach's room, and Steve entered the coach's room again."
"Could it be?"
Gasol was a little worried.
The coach, Howard, Nash and the others have so many secret plots. Do they really want to get rid of Bryant and then change the leadership of the Lakers?
Does Bryant still have a chance to prove himself?
Just as Kobe and Gasol were silent outside Dukan's room.
Suddenly, Nash screamed like he was killing a pig.
"Coach, no! Coach! Ah~!"
"..."
Does it taste so strong? !
Kobe and Gasol looked at each other, their expressions changed, and without saying a word, they pushed the door open and went in.
Then……
I saw Du Kang's feet stepping on Nash's back.
This is?
"massage."
Kobe has been to China many times and still understands it well.
This is a Chinese massage.
The coach is giving Nash a massage to restore his physical fitness?
Kobe took a deep look at Du Kang and Nash, who were having fun at this time, and took Gasol away without Du Kang and the others noticing.
"Bryant..."
Gasol looked at Kobe's back and sighed at the end.
The closer the coach gets to Nash Howard, the more pressure will be placed on Bryant.
…
…
On January 27, the Lakers held a routine training session at the Palace of Auburn Hills in the afternoon.
The game hadn't even started yet, it was just training, and a bunch of Pistons fans came to the Palace of Auburn Hills.
"Beat LA! Beat LA!"
Pistons fans are very passionate about the Lakers.
From the beginning of training to the end of Lakers training.
"Steve, are you scared?"
Nash covered his heart and stared with wide eyes, as if he didn't hear Howard's concern.
"I seem to have regained my vitality..."
It wasn’t like this after training before…
Nash looked to the sidelines in shock.
Du Kang over there noticed Nash's gaze and nodded with a smile.
"Traditional Chinese medicine is really amazing!"
Ding, your player Nash's favorability towards you increases by 5 points to 95.
Ding, when a player's favorability reaches 100, you can get the player's template card.
"Template card? What is that?"
Du Kang was stunned.
…
…
"Frank, the recently popular Coach D is here with his Lakers. Are you not in a hurry?"
"Coach D coached very well in the last game, but I did a better job than him 10 years ago."
Lawrence-Frank said with a smile.
He is also a firefighting coach. When he took over the Nets, he set an NBA record of 14 consecutive victories for a new coach.
Not only the records of the NBA, but also in the 130-year history of the four major professional leagues in the United States, no new coach has been so brilliant.
Du Kangcai led the Lakers to a mere victory.
and……
The Lakers team has a fatal flaw. There are many inside players and few guards. The only capable point guard is Nash.
And Nash will be 39 years old soon.
"It's too easy to beat Coach D's Lakers. Just grab Nash and beat him."
It's not that he's proud.
The Lakers are now full of problems and contradictions...
Really, he really doesn't know how to lose at home.
