Chapter 123 Mischievous tricks come up frequently, and Bobo's mentality is broken by Coach D!(3/4)
After playing G1, many Lakers' celebrities feel that the probability of the Lakers winning the championship has increased from 25%, at least to 40%!
At this time, of course, we must show our presence in a crazy way.
In short, the Lakers now defeated the Spurs in G1, and it was such a wonderful game to win.
The whole world wishes to blow Du Kang and the Lakers into the sky.
but.
Are the Lakers really that optimistic?
Of course not.
Du Kang didn't think the Lakers are very optimistic now.
the next day.
Du Kang was giving the Lakers a day off.
Have never left the room.
In the room, he studied videos of the last game with his two assistants Ham and Clifford.
"Du, Steve and Yi must be on the court together, otherwise Steve will face too much pressure!"
"Du, we had a G1 game for more than a week before we played. Steve was physically in good health, but in the next game, I was worried that if you let Steve go for 36 minutes, there would be problems, and the same goes for TMC. If you have to let them go for so long, I think we should relieve them."
"Steve, you want to relieve stress for them, and we want to, but will Popovich decompress us? Popovich clearly shows that in G1 it's about to kill Steve, TMC and Kobe."
This season, not only Du Kang has grown a lot, but Hamm has also grown a lot, so he can talk to Clifford.
And what is said makes sense.
In G1, the Spurs are clearly attacking the three best players in the Lakers organization.
Nash, Kobe and McGrady.
I can only say that Popovich is really vicious, so let it go for Nash and Maizi.
Kobe's shooting was messed up, and he didn't plan to let go, just to get Kobe.
This is to see that although Kobe's shooting was broken, except for shooting, he is now top-notch, including ball possession and organization.
Moreover, this is not the biggest challenge.
The real biggest challenge is the UCLA cut of the Spurs!
He couldn't have let Nash go for 48 minutes.
G1, Iverson and Carter played well in the rotation stage, but the Lakers were still the weakest.
The Lakers have Nash. Although they broke the UCLA empty cut of the Spurs starting, the Lakers' advantage in the starting stage is not as good as the Spurs' substitute stage.
In the starting stage, the Lakers were 5.1 to 4.9.
During the substitute stage, the Lakers were 4.8 to 5.2.
A slightly advantageous point is that the starting time is long and the rotation stage is short.
The Lakers have been suppressing the Spurs for a long time, but have a small advantage.
The Spurs have been suppressing the Lakers for a short time, but have a great advantage.
Overall, the two teams are in the 50s.
so……
“It’s important to perform at this critical moment in the series.”
When Du Kang talked about the critical moment, Clifford and Hamm had a headache again.
Because, the Lakers have Howard!
Howard's series with the Lakers is very important.
Well, Howard is important in any series of Lakers.
Howard is the patron saint of those old men of the Lakers.
Without Howard's franchise protection, those old men on the Lakers don't know how much they have to run on the defensive end.
Therefore, this is also the reason why Du Kang would rather endure the pain and suppress the old colleague for a season and make Howard happy.
Howard is happy, so those old men from the Lakers can play comfortably.
Otherwise, even if Kobe is exhausted, no matter how much data he gets, it will be useless. He will ruin himself and will not win the championship in the end.
Just...Howard...
Howard is very good, but there is one thing that is bad.
His free throws...really a headache.
At the critical moment, what should the Spurs do?
G1, when Howard went up, the two teams had already tied.
In addition, the Spurs have the ball rights and are the advantageous side. Popovich feels that there is no need to chop the Sharks.
But what about G2?
It will definitely be completely different.
Speaking of this, we have to mention Du Kang's golden potential card.
If Howard's favor for him reaches 90, then this golden potential card will definitely be given to Howard at this time.
What a pity.
But, it's not a pity.
Or, Nash's effect with this golden potential card is also very impressive.
Without Nash's physical suppression of UCLA's empty cut, the issue that Du Kang and Hamm discussed was not Howard's free throw.
But how to survive under the Spurs' incredible UCLA empty cut system.
So, giving Nash the Golden Potential Card is also a super profitable thing.
After playing G1, the Lakers got a better understanding of the Spurs. Many things about flowers and moon in the mirror have become real things.
The advantages of the Spurs, the shortcomings of the Spurs, the real strength of the Spurs, the Spurs' style of playing, in short, the Lakers have a personal experience of all kinds of things, and they are indeed not comparable to the regular season.
At the same time, the Spurs also have a better understanding of the Lakers.
Therefore, when the playoffs end, there will be fewer and fewer secrets.
In many cases, off-court means can determine the outcome of the game.
Of course.
At critical moments, the Lakers have weaknesses and naturally have advantages.
The advantage is that the Lakers have enough superstars. If they really have to play until the last minute, the Lakers can have more players available, which is more reassuring.
In short, at the critical moment, the Lakers and Spurs seemed to be playing 50% and 50% as well.
"TNT said after G1 that we will play in Game 7 in this series with the Spurs, that's right."
Clifford sighed.
Tie seven...
This is definitely not something the Lakers are willing to see.
There are so many veterans in the Lakers.
If you tie the Spurs for seven, you will definitely suffer a loss.
Even if I defeated the Spurs by chance in the tiebreak, I really want to beat the Grizzlies in the Western Conference Finals and go to fight the Grizzlies exhausted. This... is so...it's so deadly!
So, for the Lakers, tiebreaker seven is a failure.
May 8th.
On the day of the Lakers and Spurs' G2 game.
In the morning, the trio of Du Kang and Clifford Hamm were still discussing the game plan.
Before the meeting, Ham and Clifford brought a bunch of newspapers.
Hamm brought local newspapers.
Clifford brought newspapers across the United States.
There is nothing good about newspapers in the United States, they all brag about him and the Lakers. Such newspapers can only mediate their mood.
If you want to read it, you should read the local newspaper scolding him and the Lakers. Maybe some news about the Spurs will be leaked.
It is not that some domestic fans have always joked about domestic football media, but they are simply spies to their opponents. It is absolutely true that they understand the preparations of the Chinese team and look at the Chinese football media. The Chinese football media knows the disdain and shortcomings of Chinese football players very well.
"Hey, are you still squirting about Leonard?"
"Du, this is very normal. You may not have played in the NBA and don't know that in the NBA, no player can escape after making such a mistake."
