After the Lakers were once again defeated by the Thunder, they lost all the regular season losses that they wanted to break the Bulls record this season.
There are 13 games left in the season. If the Lakers want to break the Bulls' 72-10 record, they need to win all 13 games, which is basically impossible.
In the remaining 13 games of the Lakers, there are many strong teams, and they are strong teams in the Western Conference. The Timberwolves they will play in the next game are not that easy to beat.
Now the entire Western Conference is in fear that the Lakers will lose the first place in the Western Conference. The strong teams in the Western Conference playoffs that were previously in the game are now eager to escape from the danger zone of eighth in the Western Conference.
It is precisely because of this.
After the Lakers lost to the Thunder on March 24, the media across the United States focused on the Lakers.
Everyone is discussing the current problems of the Lakers.
The three veterans, Pierce, Garnett and Barkley, are out of shape and strength. They are basically working undercover in every game.
Seth Curry, the team's best player in the first half of the schedule, lost his MVP after being beaten by Deng in two games. His mentality was unbalanced, and there were problems with his state and mentality.
There is also the fact that Jokic, the team's only serious center, was suspended for 40 games because of his violent beating of James. As a result, the Lakers' center position was seized by NBA teams.
Also, the Lakers' previous record is too good and they have a chance to break the Bulls' 72-win record. This makes the Lakers the target of public criticism. Every team in the NBA will work hard when they encounter the Lakers.
The Bulls' 72-win record made the entire NBA look like a piece of trash.
If the Lakers break the Bulls' record, wouldn't we become even more useless snacks?
In short, due to various reasons, the Lakers have encountered current difficulties.
Whether it is TNT, ESPN, or other media, when summarizing and analyzing, they all gave Coach D the biggest question.
"Maybe now Coach D regrets making Seth Curry the team's tactical core to play French basketball, maybe now Coach D regrets bringing Pierce, Garnett and Barkley over, maybe now Coach D regrets selecting him with the No. 1 pick It was Jokic instead of Wiggins. There are many problems with the Lakers now, but in my opinion, the biggest problem is Coach D. After winning two incredible championships in two consecutive seasons, Coach D is arrogant, Coach D has forgotten everything!”
"I know you may think I'm being mean, but I'm the core player of a dynasty team. I know how difficult it is to be a dynasty team. It's easy to win a championship. It happens every year in the NBA. It is not easy to win two championships in a row. It is difficult for a team to defend the championship in the NBA. However, to win three championships in a row, after the NBA entered the modern era, only I and the OK Lakers did it. "
"It's not that we are the only ones who have the strength to do it, but that to achieve a dynasty requires more than just strength, there are many other things, the unity between the players, and the humility of the coach. You can say that Coach D has 100 He is more capable than Feier, but he will never be as humble as Feier, so he will never be able to achieve Feier's achievements!"
"In my opinion, a head coach without a dynasty is not worthy of becoming the number one head coach in NBA history!"
"What's even more ridiculous is that Coach D is even trying to persuade Michael to come back and let Michael go to the Lakers to partner with Kobe. This is the best joke I've ever heard! After Coach D won the championship twice, he thought he was a god. In fact, Come on, now you all can see that he is actually a person too!"
"You don't have to look at me like that. I don't have any objections to Coach D because Coach D has never approached me. I have retired. I don't want to stay in the NBA as a player to win championships and make money. You all know Yes, I have won enough championships, and I have no interest in money, so everything I said is the truest and most objective thought."
"What I'm saying now is just like what I said before. I think Coach D used his arrogance and stupidity to personally send the Celtics to become the eight consecutive championships in the future, and to personally send LeBron James to become the Goat of the NBA. Surpass Jordan and become the king of the NBA!"
Watching Pippen's confident look on TV giving advice and scolding Fang Qiu, James in front of the TV was very happy.
He likes to hear that Pippen is a guest in Tiantuan.
Pippen always talks nicely, and he likes it so much.
Especially when comparing him with Jordan, Pippen was always able to tell the world fairly and objectively who should be the Goat of the NBA in the future!
"Scott, do you also think that the Celtics will be the NBA champions in the next eight years and that LeBron James will surpass Michael Jordan in eight years?"
This point of view is still a violent argument thrown out by the TNT group show during the Christmas war.
That is, a certain guest said at that time that the Celtics are so strong that they will still have draft picks from the Nets in the future. The Celtics will become stronger and stronger in the next eight years. Although Miracle Monty does not have a championship now, in the next eight years Will win eight championships.
Although James has not surpassed Jordan now, James, who will win eight championships in the next eight years, will surpass everything.
So after that episode, many James fans expressed that James would become the NBA's Goat in the future, and that Magical Monty would be the NBA's number one head coach in the future.
This statement is very popular among Celtics fans and James fans.
Unexpectedly, Pippen had the same view.
You know, Pippen is Michael Jordan's closest comrade, and his words carry a lot of weight, especially in this regard.
"Shaq, let me correct you. The Celtics will become the NBA championship in the next eight years. There is no problem with that. They will become stronger and stronger in the next eight years.
However, I didn't say that it took LeBron James half a year to surpass Michael.
LeBron now has 3 MVPs, 1 FMVP, and 1 championship. In addition to winning the championship, MVP, and FMVP this year, he is actually only four years away from surpassing Michael Jordan. Four years later, LeBron James will be the least 6 MVPs, 6 FMVPs and 6 championships. At that time, we can discuss who is the Goat of the NBA, LeBron James or Michael Jordan! "
James, who was in front of the TV, was getting happier and happier, and these words really sounded more pleasant to his ears.
On the other side, Danzi, who was also watching TV, was gritting his teeth at this time.
Damn you, how could I ever be sorry for you?
I am such a naughty man, am I sick?
However, after being depressed, Danzi felt a little resentful.
He didn't expect the Lakers' sudden collapse.
Unexpectedly, this season Coach D led the Lakers to lead for most of the night, and then they were overtaken in the early morning!
Unexpectedly, the final winner of this season was LeBron James and the Celtics.
As the biological son that Gouzi now strongly supports, Danzi must be a little unhappy.
What Pi Er said is outrageous, but this is how many media create public opinion.
At this moment, Reggie Miller, who also appeared as a guest, interrupted Pi Er.
"Scott, I need to correct you. When LeBron James left the Heat, I didn't think he had any chance of surpassing Jordan. I think the only person in the entire NBA who has a chance to surpass Jordan is Kobe Bryant. .”
Everyone in front of the TV was dumbfounded.
He really didn't expect that one day, it would be his closest comrade-in-arms, Pippen, who would betray him.
And the person who helped him was actually his old rival, Reggie Miller!
"I think Reggie is right. LeBron James, Goat? This is the best joke I've ever heard, not Coach D asking Michael Jordan to come back."
Echoing Miller at this time was Ray Allen, who was also invited to be a guest.
"In my opinion, no matter how many championships, MVPs, and FMVPs LeBron James wins, even if he can score 400 million points, 10,000 assists, and 10,000 rebounds in his career, he will never be the Goat of the NBA. Basketball Gaot."
Ray Allen's words are definitely at the level of violence.
Therefore, as soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was blinded, including Reggie Miller.
Even Jordan himself in front of the TV was dumbfounded.
However, Ray Allen didn't care at all about the dumbfounding of the people around him, but continued.
"You always say that LeBron James will become a Goat in the future, but he is now 31 years old. Does his basketball skills really reach the Goat level we require? The Gaot of basketball and the Goat of the NBA cannot just be statistics and awards. , the most important thing is technology. If the technology is not top-notch, you are not qualified to participate in Goat's discussion. Now, I want to ask you."
"Is LeBron James good at dribbling?"
“LeBron James’ free throws are good?”
“LeBron James’ shooting is good?”
Ray Allen's three soul questions directly made Pippen stupid, who just said that James would surpass Jordan.
Looking at Pi Er who was already dumbfounded on the TV, James in front of the TV was equally dumbfounded.
No one has ever criticized his Goat theory from this perspective.
In the past, those who said he was not worthy of being compared with Jordan were all based on the fact that he played for multiple teams, the awards were not enough, there were not enough championships, and the data was not good enough.
No one has ever opened up such a track like Ray Allen.
Such a track is so damn unfair to him!
He was not at the scene. If he were at the scene, he would definitely 100% directly refute Ray Allen's violent remarks.
According to you, is O'Neal's free throw shooting good? Dribbling well? Is the shot good?
At this moment, Ray Allen on the TV continued to talk, and this time Ray Allen looked at O'Neal next to him.
"Shaq, I'm not disrespecting you, and I'm not disrespecting those players in the NBA who rely on physical talent to play. Physical talent is part of basketball. You can become one of the best players in the NBA, if you are strong enough and good enough. , you can become the top 20 in history, the top 10 in history, or even the second in history, no problem, but players like you will never be worthy of being a Goat!"
"Shaq, do you think there is any problem with what I said?"
In this episode of TNT's Tiantuan program, the first person to point out the situation is Mr. Pi.
Who would have thought that in the end, it would be Ray Allen's explosive kill, a one-man stage!
Even O'Neal, who was asked by Ray Allen, could only nod stupidly at this time.
"No problem, no one ever said I was a Goat."
Yes, when O'Neal was the best, only O'Neal himself said that he could surpass Jordan. No other experts or media thought O'Neal was the Goat.
"Shaq, do you think, why are these people now blind and mentally ill? Shaq, you are a man of great wisdom. I think you must know why, in this world, most people's butts make the decision. Heads, money determines butts, and if some people’s butts are shining, their heads will be shining.”
After Ray Allen finished speaking, Pippen's face next to him was not dark, but livid. Today he wore a yellow hat. Isn't this just sparkling?
Ray Allen is criticizing someone!
He was the one who was scolded directly!
Pippen wanted to fight back, but then he realized that there was no way to fight back. Ray Allen's words were too logical.
Just when Pippen felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly, Ray Allen continued to speak.
"The same is true for NBA coach Goat. Even if Miracle Monty wins more championships in the future, in my opinion, at most he will be the next Phil Jackson. His value on the coaching bench will never be comparable to Coach D.
What Coach D brought to the NBA was creative and epoch-making. He made the value of a head coach higher than that of the players and even the team. This was something that no head coach had ever done before. The changes in tactics, the shaping of the NBA spirit, and the guidance for players and coaches even surpassed the Cardinals.
The NBA has not become greater because of the Cardinals, and the NBA will not become greater because of championships. However, Coach D has brought greatness to the NBA. Now, how many NCAA fans do you hear laughing at the NBA?
The NBA can have a championship coach every year.
Even if one head coach wins all the championships, that is just relying on the NBA, not making the NBA great.
In this world, there is only one head coach who truly makes the NBA great, and that is Coach D!
If there must be a Goat in the NBA coaching world, I would choose Coach D!
Jordan brought unprecedented changes to the NBA.
Coach D, the same is true, no, even Coach D has done more and harder! "
After Ray Allen finished speaking, the people around him were completely dumbfounded.
And Pippen didn't even have the idea to refute!
Pippen looked resentfully at Kenny Smith and O'Neal next to him, "You damn thing called me here just to be cannon fodder, right?"
With Ray Allen coming, do we still need to come?
This is how the effect of this program came about!
In fact, O'Neal and Kenny Smith were both stupid.
Ray Allen is usually a homebody.
This time I am willing to come out, naturally it is not just for fun.
But he really has to vent the anger he had been holding back in the Heat.
Going to the Heat was the worst decision he ever made.
In the 2013 Finals, James disgusted him to death.
"I don't know what basis you are here to discuss that Coach D will definitely fail and James will succeed. If it is just strength, then I can tell you now, as Coach D's opponent that year, what do you think of the 2013 Finals? Which one is stronger and which one is weaker, the Lakers and the Heat in the 2013 Finals? Do you think who was stronger or weaker between James, Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Iverson and Carter at that time?"
"Now I can help you recall that in that year's championship, the Lakers swept the Heat 4-0!
The FMVP of the championship that year was shared by Kobe, McGrady, Nash, Carter, and Iverson, because they all defeated your Goat, LeBron James, in the finals! "
"I can tell you very clearly that I have great faith in Coach D's ability in desperate situations! Now the Los Angeles Lakers have only lost 9 games. When Coach D loses 10 games, it won't be too late for you to discuss this issue again."
The TNT group show launched tonight is shocking.
As soon as it was broadcast, it shocked the entire NBA.
And almost at the same time.
The results of the game between the Lakers and Timberwolves are out!
This game between the Lakers and Timberwolves is not broadcast live across the United States.
The two teams fought until the end.
At the last moment, Coach D once again magically asked Wade to execute the final three-pointer!
And, in the end, Wade's three-pointer was successful!
101 to 99!
The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Timberwolves back-to-back on the road!
Before the game, the Lakers were considered certain to lose and lose three games in a row. The Lakers won!
Damn it!
When the news came, the entire TNT studio was stunned!
But Ray Allen smiled.
Ray Allen's smile was full of ridicule when viewed by Pippen and other members of the team.
"You still know nothing about Coach D!"
Listening to Ray Allen's words, James' face became extremely ugly again.
You can win this!
Wade's three-pointer hit again!
Coach D is betting!
Moreover, the bet was successful again!
"Perhaps you will never see Coach D lose his tenth game this season."
impossible!
Absolutely impossible! !
