On November 9, 2014, the Lakers' last game was on November 5. After four days of rest, the Lakers finally faced their first super opponent of the season, the Golden State Warriors.
After Maizi, Kezi and Dayao were injured, the Lakers team is still very strong.
Du Kang is confident that he can lead this Lakers to defeat most ordinary teams in the league, ordinary strong teams.
But in the NBA, ordinary teams and super teams are different.
There is a gap between ordinary players and stars, but the gap between stars and superstars is far greater than the gap between ordinary players and stars.
In the NBA, you have to accept that super players can decide the game.
After the Lakers lost Kezi, Maizi and Yao Ming, the Lakers now have no super players.
Well, Wade is strong enough, but he is absent-minded now.
Ever since James was blackballed by the whole world, Wade has been more worried than James' mother.
Various ways to help James angrily annoy reporters at the Lakers training facility.
Seeing this posture, the surrounding Lakers players were stunned.
Wade is with the Lakers, but his heart is with the Celtics.
Many Lakers players suspect that Wade may abandon the Lakers at any time and go to the Celtics to find James.
Well, that's what Garnett and Pierce, the two veterans of the team, think.
I feel that Wade is not determined enough, and the two of them are suitable to be the leaders of the team's locker room.
However, the Lakers players are not convinced by Garnett and Pierce. In comparison, they are more convinced by Wade.
Even if Wade is like this, everyone still thinks Wade is bullshit.
In the past two years of finals, Wade has really shocked the Lakers players.
Facing such a Laker, Aunt Jenny had a headache.
"This Lakers team must be the most complicated team in the locker room that Coach D has ever led!"
After Aunt Jenny sighed, Ham next to her didn't agree.
"Jenny, the Lakers two years ago were the most complicated team in the locker room in NBA history!"
Darwin Hamm said with a smile, his face full of memories.
The internal relationship between the Lakers, the four top guards in Kobe, Howard, and Nash, is simply chaotic!
The NBA head coach is a black hole, a team that even the Cardinals cannot save even if they are resurrected. Do you think this is a joke?
Now he has been sighing and sighing, what kind of method did Coach D use at that time, how could he break the game like that, and finally lead this team with internal and external troubles to win the championship undefeated.
Really, so Dior!
Hamm recalled the Lakers two years ago, and Nash and Clifford must have looked nostalgic.
Of the four major assistant coaches of the Lakers, the only one just now was Aunt Jenny.
After all, Aunt Jenny was the Lakers' external and internal trouble at the time.
Aunt Jenny caused a lot of trouble for that Laker two years ago.
So now that she has become the assistant coach of the Lakers, Aunt Jenny has subconsciously forgotten about the Lakers that season.
Now that it has been brought up again, this is like whipping the corpse!
"The difficulty for the Lakers this season is not the chaos in the locker room. The Lakers locker room is not chaotic at all. Coach D leads everything, and no one can mess up Coach D's locker room."
Clifford frowned and continued.
"As long as we have Coach D, who is now very popular, the Lakers' locker room will not be much more complicated no matter how complicated it is. The real problem for the Lakers is that they can't find a reliable core. The Lakers can't play now." Superstar basketball requires systematic basketball, just like the Pistons in 2004.
And this requires the Lakers to need a new tactical system.
Now Coach D must be worried about the team's tactical system without super players, right? "
This is indeed a question that Du Kang has been thinking about.
Without Wheat, Kobe and Yao Ming, what system will the Lakers play?
Put all the treasure on Wade and build a tactical system with Wade as the core.
This will definitely not be on the list, although Du Kang is confident that Wade and James will finally meet each other and fall in love with each other.
But it's impossible for him to put all his cards and confidence on Wade.
Therefore, Du Kang needs to create a new tactical system for the Lakers, preferably a tactical system where everyone is a soldier.
In this tactical system, everyone has their own role, some attack, some organize, and some defend. Even if one of them has a problem, it will not really affect the entire team.
Wanting to create such a system, as a direct descendant of UCLA University, the first thing Du Kang thought of was the space tactical system.
UCLA's signature tactic is the UCLA air cut.
Du Kang himself has now selected UCLA air-cutting in the system.
Therefore, Du Kang can simulate the Lakers' UCLA air cutting performance in the system.
If it works well, use it.
If you can't fight, don't use it.
The result of Du Kang's MP simulation is that this Laker cannot beat UCLA's air cut.
why?
Mainly, this Laker has no room.
The Lakers' starting lineup this season is Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Ebanks, and McAway, plus Garnett or Pierce.
In this starting lineup, the best three-pointer is actually Pierce.
Ebanks has the highest three-point attributes, but because he has no skills, a slightly more difficult three-point shot is unstable.
Now the Lakers' Jokic, Antetokounmpo and even McAway are all available outside, which means that Ebanks will be the Lakers' most defensive player. Ebanks will be the most defensive player this season. The defense they faced was the best among all Lakers players.
Facing All-Star defensive treatment, Ebanks, who had been a 3D player before, struggled on the offensive end this season, shooting less than 40% from the field.
This one is a little bit ugly.
Du Kang doesn’t blame Ebanks.
The Lakers have attracted a lot of hatred this season, and Ebanks is now the face of the Lakers. It can be seen how ruthlessly those NBA teams have dealt with Ebanks.
The Lakers were able to win the first five games thanks to Wade, who plays the team's sixth man.
Wade averaged 22 minutes per game in the previous five games and averaged 26 points, 5 assists and 2 steals per game. His efficiency was simply explosive!
The performance of this substitute lineup allowed Wade to rank third in the MVP rankings when the first official MVP rankings came out.
Second only to Yi Jianlian and Oden.
A substitute sixth man actually ranked third in the official MVP list. This is not only Wade's glory, but also the problem of the Lakers' starting lineup.
There is no space in the starting lineup and they can't attack. In the end, they have to fight with their opponents on defense. Well, the Lakers' starting defense is indeed very good.
Defense can win championships, this is the old saying.
Now, this sentence is not so correct, if not incorrect, then it can be said to be inaccurate.
This is not why basketball is expensive.
Basketball rules are now retro, and many old rules are back.
However, the player's playing style is not so easy to come back.
Faster is faster. The overall three-point shooting level of NBA players has been rising. Throwing too many three-pointers will make people think that they are brushing up the statistics. However, no one can guarantee that the next three-pointer will be hit. Therefore, the result is like this Uncertainty does not count as gambling.
The number of three-point shots during offense increases greatly, and there will be more fast breaks. Don't scream when you are in danger.
Being stronger also means that the offense is indeed stronger.
In the past, there were not many reliable shooters in the NBA, but now, every NBA team has a super shooter. Even players like the Lakers have a shooter like Curry.
Now, Du Kang is making a fuss about Curry.
Du Kang attaches so much importance to Curry after signing him, and that's right.

As a second-year rookie, Seth Curry actually has 13 shooting-related skills!
This is awesome!
You know, when UAE first came to the Lakers, he only had six or seven skills.
Seth Curry only has 13 shooting-related skills.
Of course, in addition to these 13 shooting-related skills, Curry has only one skill, and that is a silver-level ball-fighting madman.
Well, before joining the Lakers, Curry's skill was bronze. After his reaction ability improved, it became silver.
Now 91's reaction can theoretically upgrade Curry's skill to purple.
In fact, when Curry first came to the Lakers last season, he didn't have so many shooting-related skills.
Last season, Curry had 10 shooting-related skills, and most of them were bronze.
At that time, Curry's attributes and skills were also very unique, but they did not make Du Kang so coveted.
That's it?
My Maizi has full skills and almost full attributes. Compared with Maizi, all players are so ordinary.
Du Kang abandoned Curry without even thinking about it, and had no intention of cultivating Curry.
But this season, after the two skill and attribute monsters Maizi and Kezi are gone, Curry's attributes and skills are so good!
It’s simply delicious!
Du Kang plans to train Curry to become an offensive threat monster like Curry and Kobe.
Players like Curry and Kobe who are great offensive threats are particularly important to a team's tactical system.
Especially for a team like the Lakers that has no space to attack, it couldn't be more important.
Du Kang came from UCLA.
Therefore, Du Kang's basketball philosophy is that without space, there is no offense, and without offense, there is no basketball.
If you want to create an offensive tactical system, you must open up space.
If you want to open up space, you naturally need a player who can open up space.
Little Curry is simply perfect!
Du Kang couldn't get the real big treasury.
However, Xiao Kuzi's current attributes can actually simulate the playing style of Big Pants.
"Ding, do you want to spend 100MP to search for Stephen Curry? Do you want to spend 500MP to search for Stephen Curry's attributes?"
"yes."
The 600MP is just gone.
In the search library, this is the prerequisite for querying attributes.
With this 100MP, you can get the basic data of Big Pants’ height, weight, wingspan, age, birthday, peak start, peak end, injuries, etc.
Other options such as attributes, skills, personalities, hot zones, and play styles cost additional money.
When he first activated the system, Du Kang wanted to spend 100 MP to search for players.
But in the end Du Kang couldn't bear it. This was still too luxurious for Du Kang at the time.
But now, it's okay.
Stephen Curry
Abilities: 91
Potential: 97
Favorability towards you: 90
Offensive attributes: Cutting layup: 90, post-up fadeaway jumper: 60, post-up hook shot: 25, post-up control: 40, drawing fouls 75, close shot 85, mid-range shot 90, three-pointer 97, free throw 90, control Ball 90, Passing IQ 80, Passing Accuracy 85, Offensive Rebounds 20, Dunk in Place: 40, Cutting Dunk 65, Shooting IQ 90, Passing Vision: 80, Catching Ability: 85

"Comparing the attributes of Seth Curry and Stephen Curry!"
Soon, the system displayed the comparison results of the large and small libraries.
The attributes and styles of the two are almost identical.
The strong point attributes are exactly the same, and the weak point attributes are also exactly the same.
The big Curry completely surrounded the little Curry.
Except for cut-in layups, mid-range shots, various passing, and related attributes of ball control, the gap between Curry Jr. and Curry Curry is very small after being strengthened by him.
Little Curry's three-point score is 95, and Curry's three-point score is 97, which is 2 points behind.
Curry Jr.’s catch is 80, Curry Curry’s is 85, which is 5 points behind.
Curry Jr.'s reaction was 91, Curry Curry's response was 95, a difference of 4 points.
Little Curry's agility is 85, and Curry's agility is 90, which is 5 points behind.
Curry Jr.'s speed and acceleration are 85, Curry Curry's is 88, which is 3 points behind.
Little Curry's physical strength is 89, and Curry's physical strength is 93, which is 4 points behind.
Little Curry's scrambling ability is 86, and Curry's is 90, which is 4 points behind.
Little Curry's offensive stability is 70, and Curry's is 80, which is 10 points behind.
Du Kang doesn't need Curry to play singles with the ball like Curry.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to control the ball, and Du Kang does not need Curry to organize, so the weaknesses in various attributes of passing are also weak. Du Kang does not need Curry to break through, so it does not matter if he cuts to the layup or finishes at the basket.
Du Kang only needs little Curry to be a big Curry who can catch and shoot without the ball!
The above attributes are all related to catching and shooting three-pointers.
In terms of attributes, Curry Jr. is at least 90% as good as Curry in catching and shooting without the ball.
Taking into account related skills, Curry's skills are definitely more powerful. It is estimated that there are a lot of golden shooting related skills.
Therefore, including skills, small Curry should be able to reach about 80% of big Curry.
Curry is divided into three points, organizing Curry, strong shooter Curry, and isolation Curry.
Du Kang now asks Curry to imitate or copy the strong shooter Curry.
It has reached 80%.
Little Curry's ability is 81, and Curry's ability is 91, which seems to be exactly 80%.
This is not actually how it is viewed.
How many skills does a superstar have? Counting the skill bonuses, the difference in strength between an elite player with an ability of 81 and a superstar with an ability of 91 is definitely not 80%. It is good to be able to achieve 7 achievements.
And now the little Curry has reached 80% of the big Curry in catching the ball and shooting three-pointers, which is already very good.
And 80% can already simulate playing styles.
Du Kang even thinks that he can try some styles of play that Curry couldn't try with the Warriors!
"Didn't Popovich learn from my UCLA school?"
"I'm with the Warriors this season. How about creating a UCLA style Galari Brown style of play?"
Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Ebanks, and McAway, the four of them defended like crazy.
Little Curry is attacking like Iverson did back then!
However, Iverson's offense back then was crazy to the basket.
And now Curry's offense is shooting three-pointers from the outside like crazy!
"I want Curry to shoot 10 three-pointers in a game. No, as long as he dares to shoot, 11 or 12 three-pointers are also possible. He can shoot as many as he wants!!!"
"When the time comes, will my Lakers undergo some qualitative changes?"
You know, Curry actually only made less than 9 three-pointers in every game this season with the Warriors!
Du Kang can see that the Warriors have not maximized Curry's offensive threat. This season, Curry averaged less than 25 points per game.
Since the warriors do not dare to take the step of rebellion.
"Then let me take this step!"
Du Kang feels that this kind of basketball may refresh the entire league!
Lakers training facility.
Early in the morning, the Lakers players came over.
It was bustling and everyone was excited.
The Lakers' record this season is very good, winning five games, but this record is not recognized by others.
Everyone says that the Lakers' good record this season is due to luck.
We haven’t encountered a super strong team in previous games.
And now, it's time for the Lakers to show up.
The Lakers' opponent tonight is the Warriors.
This is a team that easily beat the Spurs the day before yesterday.
After acquiring Love this season, the Warriors have become stronger.
The offense is simply unbeatable.
The starting combination of Arab League, Love, Iguodala, Clay and Curry can beat the opponent by an average of 20 points per game.
When these five people are on the court, their opponents are immediately destroyed.
Such a powerful offensive ability is known as the best in NBA history.
Facing such a warrior tonight, the Lakers must collapse directly?
We are all young people, and we will definitely not be happy when encountering such a statement.
Everyone wants to prove themselves in tonight's game.
But, on the other hand, the Warriors are indeed great.
None of the Lakers players have confidence.
"Charles, Coach D doesn't seem to show up again today, hahahaha, isn't Coach D thinking about tactics to defeat the Warriors now? Don't think about it, there is no chance, the Lakers have no chance at all, hahahaha..."
This hoarse and hearty laughter, who is it if it’s not O’Neal?
This member of the TNT team came to the Los Angeles Lakers training ground today, not alone, but with a big guy.
He and Kenny Smith will be the commentators for tonight's Lakers-Warriors game.
And they came here early in the morning with camera equipment to broadcast the entire game between the Lakers and the Warriors.
If not for anything else, just to witness this NBA Spring Festival Gala!
This battle between the Lakers and the Warriors was already hyped by Coach D himself before the game!
Coach D took Curry to the Oracle Arena for a show the day before yesterday, making the already fiery Hu Yong battle even more explosive.
Originally, everyone only wanted to see the appearance of the Lakers and Coach D in this game, but unexpectedly, they could also slap Coach D in the face.
The incident of Coach D taking Curry to the Oracle Arena to stir up people's mentality has now become a joke among all fans in the NBA.
"Coach D doesn't think that NBA players are just a bunch of elementary school students, right?"
"Can such a trick fool Cole? I don't think Cole is that stupid!"
"Just little Curry is so arrogant. If Curry doesn't puke him in the next game, I will quit the James Fans House!"
"Jimmy should be concerned about the situation of their Burger King in Boston. It won't be directly traded by Danny Ainge, right?"
"Fans of Little Flying Eagle, if you don't care about the movies your dog owners make, why don't you watch the NBA? Follow your dog owners to compete for the Oscars. You don't really believe that your boss can succeed in the Oscars, right?"
"Farke!"
"Big Bo Fak!!"
Tonight's game hasn't started yet, it's only the morning, and NBA fans, James and Kobe fans on the Internet are already making a fuss.
Faced with such heat, how could O'Neal let it go?
So I came with my equipment.
"Shaq will show you Seth Curry and Coach D's preparations today!"
"Seth Curry is practicing three-pointers right now, and he's doing great. You see, Seth Curry feels good today, hahahaha..."
O'Neal posted the video, and there were a bunch of comments below.
"With this kind of shooting practice, I can make consecutive hits!"
"I heard that Shaq can also hit three-pointers like this in a row?"
"My emperor can hit twenty in a row!"
The video of Curry's shooting practice that O'Neal released not only failed to win praise for Curry, but even received negative comments from a group of Celtics fans and neutral fans.
"Coach D hasn't appeared yet, but Coach D has brought the Lakers' training plan to strengthen the team. Now the Lakers players are scrambling for their own training plan."
Lakers training facility.
Curry took over his training program from Nash.
"The hidden potential?!"
Curry was shocked!
this……
Isn't it adjusted?
Changed it to hidden potential? !
Am I going to go out of my way to catch thieves with McAway or Kyle Anderson or Ebanks?
In fact, Nash came here with Ebanks, so it was obvious who to follow to catch the thief.
After Kyle Anderson's potential has been strengthened four times, his current potential has reached 91. It is not worthwhile to continue to strengthen.
You can only strengthen one point at a training camp.
Might as well give this opportunity to Curry.
Curry's current potential is 83. If he strengthens his potential by three points, it will be 86.
Curry is in great need of potential now.
Curry's ability is 81, and now he is 24 years old. Now, he has just entered his peak period. When he grows the fastest, his peak is about to arrive.
Starting from the game against the Warriors, Du Kang must focus on cultivating and making full use of little Curry. Soon Curry will reach his full potential of 83. By then, if the potential is not enough, all that experience will be wasted.
Therefore, Du Kang hopes to increase Curry's potential to 86 first and see when Curry can reach 86 this season. Well, if there is a chance, Du Kang will of course continue to strengthen Curry's potential.
After using this training camp, Du Kang will have another opportunity to train, and he can also strengthen Curry's potential, which can increase Curry's potential to a maximum of 88.
If Curry can fully develop his 88 potential this season, and then improve his shooting skills to the golden level, Du Kang will definitely laugh like crazy.
Got the hidden potential training plan.
Little Curry was led away by the aloof Ebanks.
Seeing that Ebanks was going to lead the protagonist away, O'Neal gave up.
"Devin, what are you doing?!"
Ebanks simply ignored O'Neal.
In the end, O'Neal could only follow.
Then, I saw how restless the streets of Los Santos were.
Those heroes in Los Santos were like a mouse seeing a cat when they saw Ebanks coming.
Ebanks didn't even need to take action, he took the initiative and ran over with his hands behind his back.
"Seth, tie him up and take him to the police station."
"..."
Little Curry was shocked!
O'Neal, who was filming behind with equipment, was also stunned.
Are these still the lawless heroes in Los Santos who are not afraid of the police or the generals?
What is the King of Los Santos? This is it!
"Then tie them up, tie them into a bunch, and bring them over together. You will have completed your mission."
"..."
Seth Curry was dumbfounded.
In front of his mobile phone, Curry, who was scrolling through O'Pang's Twitter, was also stunned.
Next to Curry, his parents and family members were all shocked.
"Seth is going to be screwed by Coach D!"
"Stephen, you must be merciful tonight!"
Curry looked at the phone dumbfounded and nodded subconsciously.
He will definitely not spoil his younger brother who has now become 'Stupid Ododo' tonight!
(End of chapter)
