Du Kang’s cheers rang out from the entire Staples Center in Los Angeles, which made Teacher Zhang, CCTV’s team, Wang Gan and Penguin’s team really excited and excited.
Teacher Zhang needs to suppress his emotions because he is going to live broadcast. Wang Gan and his group of penguin live broadcasters are not so particular.
"Coach Xiao Du, I love you! Coach Xiao Du, I love you! Coach Xiao Du, I love you to death!"
The beautiful anchor next to him was so licentious. Normally, Wang would have complained in his heart. But this time, instead of complaining, he recognized it very much.
She always thinks about posting on WeChat Moments, and this is actually the best time to post on WeChat Moments. However, she did not take out her mobile phone or let the people next to her take photos for her. Instead, she held a slogan supporting Du Kang. Crazy alone.
It seems exaggerated, but in fact it is true.
Perhaps, now in China, many people like Jiujiu, who were originally basketball 'valuables', are showing their true feelings for Coach Xiao Du, right?
Just like when Yao Ming was racing in the NBA, he turned every male basketball 'valuable' into a basketball-loving fan.
According to the current vocabulary, it is called out of the circle.
There is another figure in the Chinese basketball world who can break out of the circle and resonate with everyone!
And this character may have attracted more people than Yao Ming!
So handsome and stylish!
"Maybe……"
No, not maybe!
"My golden age is coming!"
…
…
Amid the cheers of Lakers fans, the game entered the second quarter.
The rotation phase of the second quarter is a relatively weak link for the Lakers.
The Lakers' main combat power now is the five major stars plus the United Arab Emirates.
The four players, Kobe, Nash, Gasol, and Artest, are older and can no longer play as hard as they did when they were young.
Howard and Arab League are young.
However, Ah Lian's physical strength is only 80, so Du Kang's current playing time for Ah Lian is about 24 minutes when he is mainly attacking, and about 30 minutes when he is not mainly attacking, which is 2 to 2 and a half quarters.
As for Howard, his back is in danger of injury and he cannot die.
As the Lakers' overall morale rises, the ability attributes of players like Antawn Jamison, Jordan Hill and Earl Clark have recovered.
The three are also qualified NBA rotation players.
However, the three of them are now supporting players, and they need a player like Nash to lead them to their full potential.
But there is only one Nash for the Lakers.
The key is that although Nash's physical strength has returned to 84, Du Kang cannot let Nash play 48 minutes in a game like James.
It is precisely because of this that as long as the Lakers let Nash and Yi Jianlian start, there will inevitably be problems with the Lakers' rotation.
And against the Thunder, UAE and Nash had to start.
The Thunder's defense is too strong, and the UAE needs to open up space and attract Ibaka's defense, thereby reducing the damage caused by Ibaka's help defense to Nash and Westbrook.
To tear apart the Thunder's defense, you need to attack Westbrook. Among the Lakers, except for Kobe who can use his movement to tear Westbrook apart, Nash is the only one who has this ability.
Because Nash's shooting from all areas is hot, coupled with his explosive shooting offensive attributes, he is more suitable than Kobe to punish Westbrook's lack of concentration.
Therefore, to stop the Thunder's strong starting lineup, Yi Jianlian and Nash must start.
In the end, Du Kang could only play lineups like Gasol, Earl Clark, Jamison, Jordy Meeks, and Blake in the Lakers' rotation stage.
When Jody Meeks was with the 76ers, he was a very good role player. He could shoot and make three-pointers, but he was very unstable and had no organizational skills. He was good one year and bad every year, but this year he came to the Lakers. , precisely when he was in his worst form, averaging less than 39% from the field.
Coupled with Blake, who can only be a dribbling guard and three-point shooter now, the Lakers' rotation has no threat from the outside.
Without a threat from the outside, it will be difficult to gain space inside.
Now the Lakers' bench is in urgent need of an outside core who has an offensive threat and can organize, also known as the sixth man.
Therefore, three minutes before the rotation time of the second quarter, the Lakers were suppressed by the Thunder.
Fortunately, Du Kang's requirements for the Lakers' rotation are not high. They just need to defend and hold on without collapsing.
Use Meeks to keep an eye on Kevin Martin, and the other three inside players will all shrink their defense to prevent Reggie Jackson from shooting. He must not be allowed to rush in!
The Thunder's counterattack during rotation time was very fierce.
The Lakers' rotation looks shaky, but it just won't.
The reason is naturally that Reggie Jackson's shooting is as unstable as Westbrook's.
Seeing that the team was gaining momentum on the court but not scoring, Thunder head coach Scott Brooks, who was full of confidence even after his team fell behind by 12 points at the end of the first quarter, was also a little anxious.
Listening to the Lakers fans cheering for the young head coach next to them, watching Reggie Jackson clanging on the court.
Scott Brooks felt a little angry.
"Kevin, come on!"
After receiving instructions from Scott Brooks, Durant, who only rested for three minutes, was ready to play.
Seeing Durant about to go up, Ah Pu burst into mourning.
"Damn it, it's over, I can't hold on anymore!"
"Please let the Thunder replace Westbrook and Adu together!"
"Begging the Thunder to replace Westbrook and Adu to play together!"
…
…
Even the netizens of Apu understand what kind of killer weapon Durant's presence is for this Lakers, and how can the Lakers assistant coaches on the scene not understand.
After Thunder coach Scott Brooks replaced Durant, he proudly glanced at Du Kang, who was still standing next to him.
That look seemed to be saying something.
"You see, this is my confidence!"
Scott Brooks now appreciates the fact that the two Lakers assistant coaches are as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
I am even more looking forward to Du Kang being like an ant on a hot pot.
"Du, do we want to go to Kobe?"
Go to Kobe?
So much simulation experience tells Du Kang that even if Westbrook is not on the court, Kobe can't guard Durant.
Of course, this cannot be said directly.
Du Kang smiled and shook his head.
"No, Kobe can't play more than 36 minutes in each game, not even one second."
In other words, the Lakers still have three minutes to play without Kobe on the court, but the opponent has Durant.
At this time, on the court, after Durant came on the court, he received a pass from Reggie Jackson on his first attack. He made a big-step breakthrough and knocked down Jordan Hill. After knocking down Jordan Hill, Durant Te did not stop for a jump shot, but continued to drive straight to the basket.
A big man who looks 2.10 meters tall can change direction and break through like Iverson. After getting to the basket, he can actually change hands in the air and reverse the blue like Kobe!
Damn it!
Even though it was not the first time Du Kang had seen this scene, it was still extremely shocking!
"Neither Gasol nor Clark blocked Durant, Durant was on the opposite side!"
Teacher Zhang Lili in the commentary box on the sidelines was stunned.
"This ball, this ball is so unreasonable, so beautiful!"
After completing this goal, which can be regarded as one of the top ten goals in his career, Durant tore his collar while jumping and roaring, as if he was venting something.
In the first quarter of the game, he was really frustrated.
That ball just now had an element of catharsis for him.
Hamm and Clifford, who had been urging Du Kang to replace Kobe just now, said nothing at this time.
Farke!
What was wrong with that ball just now was something a 2.10-meter player could do in the NBA?
Faced with Durant, who is cheating, whoever comes up will give it away!
Hamm and Clifford looked at each other and it turned out that it wasn't Kobe who guarded Durant in the first quarter!
After the two of them looked at each other, they looked at Du Kang with even more reverence.
It was him who pulled Westbrook into the Lakers camp in the first quarter!
This method is too dirty... No, it's amazing!
For the Lakers, if Durant gets the ball, the Lakers will have no way to defend.
There is no Westbrook on the Thunder court, and it is not easy to prevent Durant from catching the ball.
When the Lakers were on the court, Durant dribbled the ball past half court and double-teamed Durant.
But the Thunder players are all working hard to find Durant, instead of like Westbrook, who saw Durant being entangled and took it on their own.
His teammates are willing to patiently work hard to give the ball, and Durant himself is willing to run and cooperate with his teammates. In addition, he is tall enough.
There's no way you can stop him from catching the ball.
However, it is obvious that Du Kang asked the Lakers players to double-team Durant after halftime, which was not completely ineffective.
It can waste the Thunder's offensive time.
If the Thunder wants to get the ball to Durant, it will take at least 15 seconds.
Then when the Lakers attacked themselves, they also slowly attacked from position, slowly stalling for time.
Even if Durant is determined to kill the enemy, it is difficult to bring up the rhythm.
No matter how strong Durant is, he is just a 2.10-meter killer, not guards like Rose, Westbrook, Curry, and Nash.
These guards can really bring up the rhythm and score explosively in a short period of time.
But Durant, no, he can't play at such a fast pace.
Durant's height makes him extremely powerful, but Durant's height also limits him from becoming more powerful.
Therefore, even if the Lakers are in dire straits, they can still hold on and not collapse!
Delaying time will make Durant unable to kill the Lakers in a short period of time!
"Is this really the first time Coach D leads a team to play against the Thunder?"
"Oh my God, the Los Angeles Lakers are holding on!"
"Coach D's targeting of KD and the Thunder was so effective!"
"It's hard for you to imagine that Coach D, who was so good at Russell and KD in this game, led the team against the Thunder for the first time!"
"I swear, in the entire NBA, there may not be a head coach who restricts the Thunder by targeting Russell and KD!"
Listening to the TNT three-day team's praise of Du Kang on TV, James and Wade in front of the TV were dumbfounded and wanted to nod.
Really, O'Neal, Barkley and Kenny Smith are all telling the truth.
In the entire league, who is targeting the Thunder but not against other Thunder players?
Just say they are the Heat, and they are targeting Perkins.
Targeting Westbrook and Durant?
Can these two demon winds, Thunder, be targeted by you if you want?
Let's put it this way, whether they play well or not, they never look at their opponents, but themselves.
But Coach D!
He really did the opposite!
And, the results are great!
It really broke Westbrook's mentality.
He really led the Lakers and Thunder to the end and still took the lead!
With 2 minutes and 50 seconds left in the game, the Lakers still led by 6 points.
The Thunder played very hard, but just couldn't turn the score back.
"sharp……"
Watching the score of 104 to 98 on TV, Wade sighed subconsciously.
After sighing, Wade realized that he had done something wrong.
Then he looked carefully at James next to him.
Wade breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that James didn't pay attention to his exclamation just now.
"It's a pity that the Lakers still can't win!"
What?
Wade looked at the excited James and was stunned for a moment.
The Lakers still can't win?
Wade thought of something quickly and immediately turned his attention to the TV.
At the same time, the excitement and excitement of the TNT Three-Day Group came out.
"Cut the shark, the Thunder chopped the shark!"
"Westbrook fouled, Howard made a free throw!"
"Howard missed his first free throw!"
"Howard was nervous. Oh my god, Howard didn't make his second free throw!"
"Ibaka served from the baseline. Kevin Durant asked for the ball. Kevin Durant advanced with the ball. It was too fast. Kobe failed to grab the ball. It was at the top of the arc again, Artest again, and again. Durant's three-pointer, bang! Hit!"
"101 to 104, the Thunder are only three points away from catching up!"
"The Thunder, the strongest in the league, appeared at critical moments this season. The Lakers are in danger!"
"Westbrook chased Howard and fouled again. Dwight Howard will be sent to the free throw line again!"
Watching what happened in just ten seconds on TV, Wade was stunned.
In addition to admiring James' IQ.
At the same time, he was also shocked by the Thunder's ability to chase points.
This season, the Thunder's ability to score explosively at critical moments is indeed strong.
Many times, Westbrook and Durant can make consecutive hits and even out a score difference of more than ten points in a short period of time.
With such a strong defensive system, coupled with these two stars with extremely high offensive ceiling, if Westbrook can attack more stably...invincible!
Therefore, this Thunder is still the Heat's strongest opponent!
Moreover, this Thunder is more restrained than the Heat!
After all, the Thunder built their team with the Lakers as their imaginary enemy.
"Coach D's first defeat seems to be coming!"
Coach D has worked very hard and performed very well.
but……
"It's time to lose!"
A smile appeared on Wade's face.
Coach D loses, and the pressure on LeBron dissipates.
Um?
Coach D didn't request a timeout?
Coach D seemed to have taken off a golden wristband from under his wrist and handed it to Howard?
Then……
I don't know why, but the expression on Howard's face, which was so frustrated when he was chased all over the court by Westbrook just now, turned into one of excitement and excitement.
why is that?
There are a lot of question marks on Wade's head.
James next to him frowned after being stunned for a moment.
"Mysterious!"
