“In the home game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns that ended earlier tonight, the Los Angeles Lakers, ninth in the Western Conference, defeated the 17-35 Suns 90-87 at home to win the game.
In this game, Kobe Bryant made 1 of 8 from the field and 0 of 4 three-pointers. He scored 4 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 8 turnovers. Howard scored a team-high 19 points and 18 more. In rebounds, the two scored 23 points together.
The statistics of other important players of the Lakers in this game are: Yi, 8 of 16, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 19 points and 10 rebounds, Nash, 5 of 11, no three-pointers and no free throws, 10 points and 8 assists, Anto Wan Jamieson scored 4 of 9 and scored 11 points. Charity World Peace and Pau Gasol took turns. TMC and UFO still did not appear, but they sat next to Coach D in the coaching bench. "
“After defeating the Pelicans at home on February 8, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Timberwolves and Suns in their next two road trips, and returned home to defeat the Phoenix Suns again.
The Los Angeles Lakers, under the leadership of Coach D, have won 11 consecutive games. The Lakers' record has also reached 28 wins and 25 losses. They are only one win away from Houston, which is eighth in the Western Conference with 30 wins and 25 losses. The eighth place in the Western Conference is already close. So close.
MIGC, how long do you think the Lakers' winning streak can last? The Los Angeles Lakers will face the Los Angeles Clippers at home in the next game. This is the last regular season game before the Lakers All-Star Game. Will the Lakers' three new players make their debut in this game? "
“Man, you’ve asked a lot of questions all of a sudden. I personally really hope that Coach D’s unbeaten legend can continue, but you know, it’s not easy.
Bryant's state has been terrible recently. In this game, he was 1-for-8, with 4 points and 8 turnovers. In the last game, he was 7-for-20, with 17 points. In the last game against the Timberwolves, he was 4-for-13, still with 17 points.
We all know very well what a great player Bryant is, but he needs to find his form and focus more on the court. If he can't focus, it will be very difficult for me in the Lakers' next game against the Clippers. The game is very pessimistic. Coach D’s recent performance tells us that he is almost God, but he is not really God.
If it were me, I would not let the Lakers' three new players make their debut in the next game against the Clippers. Now the world's expectations for the Lakers' three new players are too high, and everyone is under great pressure. , and the Clippers are one of the strongest teams in the league.
Bryant, TMC, A3, their condition is either not good or very bad. Maybe only UFO can help Coach D share the pressure, but a UFO cannot hedge against the damage that A3 and TMC may cause to the team. "
"MIGC, what you are saying is that Coach D is already having a hard time with Bryant, a player who has been getting more and more CBAs recently. He can barely lead the team to defeat the weak Lakers, and then give his team two CBAs. This Will the team collapse directly?"
"Hey, man, I never said Bryant was a CBA player. If he was a CBA player, he would have been off the game long ago and would never have a chance to play 35 minutes. Just like Coach D said, Bryant In addition to offensive data, his influence on the team cannot be reflected in the data. Without him, the Suns would not have only scored 87 points, nor would they only have 91 points in the last game. This is Bryant's contribution. The most important person for the Los Angeles Lakers now is Coach D, but Bryant is still indispensable."
"OK, MIGC, you know I'm joking. You know, a Chinese limerick "I'm Cora's Crotch" was very popular recently on the American Basketball Forum, and Bryant himself recorded a video and liked it."
"Of course I know, of course I know, China's Ke Mi is very talented, and Coach D is indeed working very hard, so man, let's not make Coach D work even harder.
I know how much you are looking forward to the four of them appearing at Staples at the same time. I also know that as long as you see the four of them competing together, you don't care about their statistics or the outcome of the game at all.
But you have to know that if your favorite coach D cannot lead the Lakers to the playoffs, he will suffer huge failure and humiliation. "
"So MIGC, do you think the four of them will not play in the next derby with the Clippers?"
"Yes, I don't want Coach D to be under too much pressure. I hope to see them after the All-Star break."
"OK, then the last question is, regarding your comeback, has Coach D contacted you?"
"Hahahaha, this is an interesting question."
"What's your answer?"
"There is no answer, but I look forward to the day when Michael puts on a Lakers jersey. He will definitely look very handsome."
"MIGC, you are so cunning!"
"No, hahahaha..."
February 13, 2013, Los Angeles Hilton Hotel.
Watching the local Los Angeles TV show on TV, Allen Iverson felt like he was in a dream these days.
Being personally invited by Coach D to serve as a substitute for the Los Angeles Lakers was something he had never thought about, but this invitation was something he could not refuse.
As a coach and as a player, he saw tremendous sincerity.
He also felt the huge desire in his heart.
What is even more dreamy and unrealistic is that Coach D actually has four top guards in the Lakers.
For a time, Iverson didn't know how to evaluate the Lakers coach he had just met.
As many NBA experts said, even crazy people cannot describe the madness of this behavior.
Although he has always disliked the media and the experts' disapproval of him.
But these people are right about one thing. With four of them on a team, it is indeed difficult to bring real success to a team.
"Allen, what do you think Coach D wants to do? What do the Los Angeles Lakers want to do? I heard that after the All-Star Game, away ticket prices have increased by 1,226%, and home ticket prices have also increased by 1,100%. And we still don’t know when you will be on the stage. If there is confirmed news, the ticket prices will be even crazier. Will Coach D and the Los Angeles Lakers treat you as mascots?”
The man speaking in Iverson's room was Moore, his agent and his former football coach.
These questions of Moore are actually also questions of Iverson.
Anyone would have such a question, because the four of them were so popular after their debut as a Lakers team that the entire United States and the entire world's sports circle exploded.
If this is really just a gimmick by the new Lakers head coach Jim Buss, then he really succeeded.
Tricking them into being pandas won the Lakers huge attention and wealth.
but……
"I believe in Coach D, he is sincere."
Whether it was the previous phone call that invited him, or whether it was checking his body at the Lakers training ground this afternoon and giving him traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy, Coach D was very sincere.
If it was just for a gimmick, he wouldn't have to go that far.
Thinking back to Coach D's appearance when he, TMC and Carter were sweating profusely, and thinking about the smile on his face, it's hard to think that he was just teasing them.
So, now all he needs to do is wait.
Waiting to see when Coach D will let them play.
"Alan, do you feel any changes in your body now?"
"I can't feel it for the moment."
It was very comfortable at the time, but after it became comfortable, it was difficult to notice the changes in the body, and it required a lot of exercise.
but……
Thinking of Nash's recent performance with the Lakers, both he, Carter and TMC are looking forward to it.
Especially TMC, coach D played the hardest today, screaming like a pig being killed, but finally persisted.
And before he joined today, TMC and Carter had been played by Coach D for several days.
Just when Iverson was thinking about being massaged by Coach D in the afternoon, the host on the TV started to interrupt the news again.
"The latest news from our reporter at the Lakers' post-game press conference. Coach D officially confirmed the issue of AI, TMC and UFO's debut with the Lakers at the post-game press conference. The three will play against the Lakers and UFO tomorrow. The Clippers will appear in the derby, please watch the report sent back by our reporter from the front below."
Iverson stared at the familiar figure appearing on the TV with wide eyes, and his hands were already shaking with excitement.
Can you play tomorrow? !
After three years, can I appear on the NBA court again? !
Iverson was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
Moore next to him was scared to death.
He just wondered if Coach D had some conspiracy with the Lakers.
Even if he believes Iverson's judgment and thinks Coach D is an honest person, is this too honest?
This is a crucial derby!
With so much attention, if the three of them are in poor condition and are beaten by the Clippers by 58, the scene will be unbearable to look at.
Coach D will not only be ridiculed by media experts all over the world, I am afraid that the fans of the four will also complain about Coach D. The brothers have not adjusted themselves well, so you let the brothers come up and be abused. What are your intentions!
My brothers haven’t played in the NBA for so many years. If you win, you are good, if you lose, you should be. They will definitely not take the blame. If they do, it will definitely be coach D. The rubbish coach has damaged my brother’s reputation.
Faced with such a scene, everyone will choose a 'right time' to find a 'right opponent' to ensure the victory of the game. In this way, you are good, I am good, everyone is good.
Such a choice that is good for you, me, and everyone is indeed understandable, but it will inevitably express the head coach's lack of trust in the three of them.
Whether it's Allen, Carter or TMC, they are all very proud people.
Such distrust hurts their hearts very much.
Don’t trust them enough, hello, me, hello everyone.
Trust them and the head coach could go to hell.
Moore dares to say that 99.9% of head coaches will choose the first one.
However, Coach D chose second place.
Moore secretly glanced at Iverson.
Seeing the look on Iverson's face at this time... Moore was silent.
Allen is a very affectionate person. He adopted 12-year-old Iverson, and later after Iverson became famous, he raised him for his whole life.
Even if the whole world says that his agent is the most amateurish and cheating agent in the world, Iverson has never replaced him. He is just willful, just raising money. He is a bastard. I want to repay him. the most important.
"Coach D, congratulations on gaining Allen's trust."
Looking at the handsome figure on the TV, Moore said silently in his heart.
…
…
At the same time, the post-game press conference between the Lakers and Suns was already crowded.
Considering the large number of reporters who may arrive today, the Lakers have actually changed to a super lobby.
There was no problem for three hundred reporters to pour into this hall.
However, it is obvious that the Lakers still underestimated the enthusiasm of this press conference, judging from the current situation that the room is full and the corridor outside is already crowded.
The previous two Lakers games were all away games.
Many reporters from all over the world could only wait in Los Angeles.
Therefore, this post-match press conference is truly the first press conference after the four defenders merged.
Faced with such a terrifying situation, Kupchak, as the host and general manager of the Lakers, began to sweat profusely.
As the general manager of the Lakers, he has seen the world, but what is going on with this kind of press conference at the inauguration ceremony of the American leader?
Is that Reuters over there?
That one over there is Xinhua News Agency, right?
That one over there is The Times, right?
And over there, shit, the Washington Post came over.
Take a look at these biggest media outlets around the world.
It is impossible for these media to be interested in an NBA game.
Even these newspapers may not report NBA news a few times a year.
But now it's all here.
Facing so many big-name media reporters from all over the world and facing such a turbulent atmosphere, he was so nervous that he was sweating profusely.
And Coach D...
There he was, chatting with reporters.
"Coach D, are you sure that the next game will be the first time the four defenders make their debut?"
"Of course, this is not such a difficult decision. Since I invited them here, I naturally want them to fight for me and compete for me, not to invite them to watch the game for free."
Hearing Du Kang's answer, Kupchak next to him sweated more on his face.
"This madman!"
Kupchak had to admit that he was indeed a genius. This time the four major defenders gathered in Los Angeles, it was the work of a genius. Commercially, it was no longer a success, but an explosion.
As long as they don't fail competitively, this operation will be one of the best operations in the history of the Lakers!
Even if they don't win the championship, as long as Coach D can lead them into the playoffs, the Lakers will become the most watched and popular team in NBA history.
but!
Really crazy!
Facing the Clippers in the next game, they can indeed maximize their business interests. This is indeed the best for Jim and the Lakers, but if they lose...
Thinking of this, Kupchak sighed with envy on his face.
I envy his relationship with Jim.
For his sake, Jim was willing to carry out that lunatic's plan that might put Jim in jeopardy, regardless of his three-year promise to win the championship.
In order to repay Jim and maximize Jim's interests, he was willing to shoulder all the pressure and responsibility.
This is trust!
The kind of 100% trust he longed for but couldn't reach.
"Teacher, why can't I gain the trust of others? I've obviously worked hard and been very cautious..."
Kupchak is confused. Even if Mayfair leaves, even if the old Mr. Buss no longer cares about things, he, the general manager of the Lakers, is still a decoration...
Not to mention following in the footsteps of teacher Jerry West.
Now he can't even see the teacher's back...
After Du Kang once again confirmed that the next Clippers game would be the debut of the three players, the press conference exploded once again.
Du Kang's system also sent prompts one after another.
"Ding, your player Vince Carter's favorability towards you has increased to 70, please check it."
"Ding, your player Tracy McGrady's favorability towards you has increased to 75, please check it."
"Ding, your player Allen Iverson's favorability towards you has increased to 80, please check it."
Damn it!
Du Kang was shocked when he saw Iverson's favorability level soared to 80.
Among the three, Carter was the first to join the team, followed by McGrady, and then Iverson.
Iverson only officially met today.
Unexpectedly, in just a short time, Iverson's affection for him was completely broken!
Is this too fast?
Du Kang, who has a good impression among the three, has always felt that Iverson's may be the most difficult to win.
The best player might be McGrady, because no one in the NBA wants McGrady anymore, and he gave McGrady a chance.
In fact, McGrady's initial favorable impression of him was indeed the highest.
Of course, Iverson was not low either, but he unexpectedly jumped directly in front of Tracy McGrady, and even passed the barrier.
Thinking of this, Du Kang's eyes flickered.
Well, Iverson is still the most innocent!
I just like such simple people!
Because I am also a very simple person!
"Coach D, I am a reporter from the Boston Globe. Is the debut you are talking about the kind of debut that allows three people to play for 1 minute in garbage time?"
Many Chinese reporters present were actually a little confused when they heard this reporter's unkind question about his family background.
However, after some experienced reporters explained it, these rookie NBA reporters from China understood.
It turns out that coach Xiao Du still has such a big grudge against Boston.
It turns out that after the All-Star break, the Lakers' first game was against the Celtics.
It turns out that these Boston media have been thinking about the first kill of the four defenders!
Let's put it this way, after the four major defenders gathered together, who among the teams in the NBA never thought about killing four players in the first place?
Let's put it this way, the impact of the combination of the four major guards is estimated to be no less than that of Jordan's comeback.
When Jordan came back, all NBA teams at that time really tried their best to defeat Jordan.
The same is true now for the four major defenders combined.
Moreover, the combined strength of the four major guards may indeed be as influential as Jordan's first comeback, but their combined strength is probably not as good as Jordan's.
Well, Kobe + Carter may be closer to Jordan, but with four of them together, they are far away from Jordan.
In this case, the Lakers with four top guards is a delicate and peerless beauty that everyone covets.
The most coveted one is the NBA's number one muscular man, the Celtics.
Now coach Xiao Du said that the first time of the peerless beauty will be given to the Clippers, and the Boston reporter broke the defense on the spot.
So the taunting began later, preparing to stimulate Du Kang to take back his life. Your debut in the last minute does not count, it is just a slap in the face!
However, such a provocative method really made people sweat for Du Kang.
Anyone who knows Du Kang knows that he just can't stand such stimulation.
just in case……
In fact, Kupchak was also in a cold sweat.
Never say let three people start, never say let three people start, otherwise the Lakers will be completely hopeless in the next game!
You will also be hopeless in the next game!
but……
"In the next game against the Clippers, Allen, TMC, and UFO will all start."
"..."
After Du Kang finished speaking with a smile, the originally crazy and lively scene suddenly became silent for a moment.
Kupchak, who had been worried about this matter, was so desperate that he almost grabbed the ground with his head.
Even the Chinese reporters at the scene looked at Du Kang in shock.
Are you serious?
but……
"Ding, your player Vince Carter's favorability towards you has increased to 75, please check it."
"Ding, your player McGrady's favorability towards you has risen to 79, please check."
"Ding, your player Allen Iverson's favorability towards you has risen to 85, please check it."
It really works!
Looking at Du Kang with that comfortable and excited smile on his face at this time, many reporters on the scene who were interviewing Du Kang for the first time can finally understand why the American media gave coach D a nickname called D Crazy.
This guy is really crazy!
But, madman is good!
Only crazy people get attention!
Next, the press conference became lively!
"Coach D, what kind of team do you think the Lakers are? Is business greater than competition?"
"I think the Los Angeles Lakers are the most successful team in the NBA both commercially and competitively."
"Coach D, do you think you can maintain your winning streak in the next game?"
"The result is not important, what is important is the effort we put in for the result. I only ask my team to aim for victory."
"After the four top guards join the team, will the Los Angeles Lakers' playing style change?"
"There won't be any changes. I believe that the Lakers' current style of play is the most suitable for them. I believe their talents can adapt to any system."
"Kobe, Iverson, Carter, Tracy McGrady, as a fan, which player do you like the most?"
“As a fan, my favorite fan of theirs is Russell Westbrook.”
…
…
Damn it, Westbrook, who was watching TV, didn't expect that he would have a chance to show off at such a press conference.
However, this junior classmate of mine speaks really nicely. He is handsome and speaks so nicely. You can't help but like him!
It’s just that the reporters at the press conference didn’t think so.
Farke!
Is this really a 23-year-old young man?
He was able to answer every question so quickly, and he could answer every question flawlessly.
Don't give them any chance!
The Chinese reporters and Kupchak who were originally very worried about Du Kang at the scene were completely relieved when they saw Du Kang's high-spirited appearance at the press conference.
…
…
At the same time, on the Internet, the whole world is actually paying attention to this press conference.
TNT even broadcast the entire event live.
Although Apu does not have this condition, it is still live broadcasting one by one.
Although Apu has worked very hard, he was still scolded by domestic netizens.
Damn it, can't it be done faster?
There is a delay of 1 minute when translating, typing and publishing news. This is so useless!
In fact, Apu was already very fast, and even with this condition, there was nothing they could do.
If Ah Pu was so wet at this time, it was all complaints about Ah Pu.
So American netizens who were able to see the live broadcast of Du Kang's post-game press conference in real time were really happy at this time.
Everyone is discussing what Du Kang said at the press conference.
The most heated discussion is whether Du Kang really starts all four players.
Kobe will definitely not be a substitute, since the other three are starters.
Then the Lakers' starting lineup for the next game will be Howard, Carter, McGrady, Kobe, and Iverson!
Damn it, as soon as this debut came out, fans all over the Internet went crazy.
"If they are both at their peak, even if the first team in NBA history comes, I believe they can win!"
Indeed, at first glance, if this lineup is at its peak, it is really an explosion of strength.
Howard is one of the best centers in NBA history to sweep the paint in the paint.
Iverson, Kobe, McGrady, Carter, all can press the defense.
With four people pressing on the outside and Howard protecting them on the inside, the opponent might not even be able to organize their offense.
Even if he finally breaks through, he still has to face Howard.
On the offensive end, four people took turns playing singles outside, and Howard grabbed rebounds inside.
No matter how you look at it, this lineup is reasonable and powerful.
If it is the peak.
"It's a pity that they are not at the top."
As the Lakers' opponent in the next game, the Clippers are actually paying attention to the post-game press conference.
When they saw Du Kang naming the Lakers' three new players who would start in the next game, everyone on the Clippers was actually a little stunned.
"Are we being underestimated?"
"Since they are underestimated, then kill them!"
"Has anyone achieved the feat of defeating the four major defenders?"
On and off the Clippers, the more they watched, the more excited they became. This beautiful woman’s first time was theirs!
As the Clippers boss, Paul was especially excited at this time.
Iverson is his idol.
I originally thought I would never have the chance to abuse idols again.
No, has the opportunity come?
In the NBA, fans have the habit of wanting to abuse their idols. This was true for Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant, and now Durant, Westbrook, and Paul.
In the NBA, young people should be energetic!
"Thank you Coach D!"
So, there won’t be many games in the next game, let’s beat the Lakers by 58 points to pay tribute to our idol and Coach D!
…
…
At the post-game press conference between the Lakers and Suns, Du Kang dropped a depth charge, blowing up the whole world again, and then hurried home under the protection of Jim Shu's bodyguard.
After returning home, Du Kang was still very excited.
"Ding, the game is over and the basketball coaching career system point settlement begins."
Competition level: A level (NBA regular season), you can get 1.6 times the MP (career points) settlement.
Game data reward: 113 to 110, win, MP reward: 53 points (Basic points for victory in A-level games are 50 points, and the point difference reward is 1 point and 1 point)
Satisfaction reward MP: 269
Player satisfaction: 100%
Fan satisfaction: 99%
Management satisfaction: 70%
Coaching game influence reward MP: 150 (indispensable to the victory of the game, the highest level reward)
MP reward settlement for this game: 755 points (rounded)
In this game against the Suns, Du Kang gained 755 MP points. He simulated it once before the game, so he earned 655 points.
In the three games after playing the Pelicans, Du Kang has been saving MP, and there is definitely not much simulation.
I don’t know if it’s because of my recent luck, but the three simulation results in the three games were all very good. Kobe’s touch was very bad in the three games, and the Lakers also won all of them.
This is the best result.
This allows his coaching influence to get a perfect score of 150 points.
In these three games, he also gained 1955 MP.
In addition to the previous MP of 858, Du Kang's current MP is already 2813 MP!
With an MP of over 2800, it was the first time that Du Kang had so much money!
But obviously, these MPs are not Du Kang's biggest gain in this game.
"Ding, congratulations on leading the Los Angeles Lakers to their tenth consecutive victory since officially taking charge. You have completed the silver achievement, 'Win 2 in a row', and will be rewarded with a silver reward and a silver-level player durable repair card."
Item: Silver Level Body Durable Repair Card
Function: Adjusts the durability of all parts of a player's body to 85.
Requirements for use: The player's favorability towards you must be higher than 85.
have a look!
God-level props, sold in the system store for 15,000MP!
Du Kang immediately chose the lottery after the game. When he drew this magical card, he was so excited.
Although NBA veterans are cost-effective, their biggest problem is that their bodies are too worn out.
Take Nash for example.
Du Kang adjusted Nash's physical strength to 84 and did not dare to increase it further.
"Ding, it is recommended that the host does not continue to increase Nash's physical strength, otherwise Nash's body will not be able to keep up with the consumption, and it is easy for an outbreak of injuries on the court."
The meaning is actually very simple. If you put a V12 engine into a classic car, as soon as you start it, the classic car will probably fall apart.
In this case, Nash can increase Nash's physical strength to 92.
Nash, who has a physical strength of 92, is full of energy. He feels that he is very energetic and can play for 40 minutes or even 48 minutes. He can run, jump, and dunk.
In fact, his body was severely worn out and could not withstand such super consumption and wear and tear.
Therefore, matching is the most important.
Therefore, if Du Kang wants to continue to restore Nash's strength to 90%, he needs to restore Nash's physical durability to 90% of what it was back then.
It can be said that for a rookie head coach like Du Kang who relies on veterans, this durable card is almost equivalent to giving him a superstar who can reach 80% or even 90% of his peak!
The key is, who should use this card?
Is it to have an extra thigh, or to make the original thigh more powerful?
This is the first update today. I will strive for the third update today. Thank you for your support.
