"Haha, Li, I didn't expect you to be a competent dad, how about bringing two children? Isn't it cool? George Crent, who had been single in his forties, laughed at Li Rui when he came to LaBeouf's house.

"Don't laugh at me, George, you'll know when you have children of your own, it's tiring and happy. In fact, I usually don't have much opportunity to take children, Lal and Nasha generally don't give me a chance, but recently there are a lot of people who sign up for Chinese classes at Nasha school, she is busy, and Lal went to the club today, only I have a holiday, so I take my children. Li Rui explained to George Krent why he brought his two lovely children to meet him.

"Speaking of Chinese, Chinese classes in Los Angeles have been quite hot lately, haha, thanks to Liu, who made Americans interested in that country on the other side of the Pacific." Come to think of it, when we first met a few years ago, he was a kid who didn't even speak English fluently. George Krent said while looking at Liu Han, who was teasing Li Rui's almost two-year-old son as a toddler with a basketball.

"Uh, well, when I didn't say it, in fact, he was still a child......" Watching Liu Han move like a big horse monkey, George felt embarrassed.

"Isn't that why he's welcome, everyone loves children, especially those who are capable." Li Rui didn't take the opportunity to laugh at George.

"Lee, I'm here today for your help, I know you've seen all the Lakers games, and you've definitely done some knowledge of the Jazz, do you have any suggestions for the next Western Conference Finals?"

George has always been very frank with Li Rui, he knows that this guy who doesn't seem to be active in doing anything actually has a set of his own special ideas in his heart, and his ideas will always bring new ideas to himself, which is why George Krent and Li Rui can become good friends.

"What? Do you have anything to worry about? It's okay to play normally, the Lakers have a good lineup, and I believe that they can get the final victory. Li Rui did not directly criticize George's work, which is probably the nature of Chinese, and Li Rui did not want George to feel that he had violated his status.

", you know I don't care about this, let's talk about it, I'm worried about the defense of the No. 4 position now, although Karl Malone is not young, but his ability is there, Robert Horry is definitely not an opponent, last year we had Elden Campbell and other substitutes in the No. 4 position, but now Campbell can not come back until the finals at most, and even if he comes back, he may not be in good shape, so I have to find a way to deal with Malone." George knew that this old friend of his would not speak if he didn't force him, so George directly expressed his worries like Li Rui.

"Well, Malone is really difficult to defend, he has strength, his skills are good enough, and his playing style is fierce, he can be said to be the top player in the No. 4 position, I think only the newcomer of the Spurs can match him. But George, I think there's something wrong with the direction you're thinking. Li Rui finally began to prepare to speak his mind.

"What's the problem? Let's talk about it, I haven't slept well since the end of the last game, you see, my hair is a lot less, you don't want me to be bald, right? George also looked like a child in front of Li Rui.

"What is the purpose of the Lakers' game?" Li Rui asked.

"Of course it's a win, only if you win against the Jazz, then you can go to the Finals." George was a little confused by Li Rui's question.

"Yes, it's victory, so what is the most basic factor of victory?" Li Rui continued to ask.

"Score more points than your opponent, or let your opponent score less than your own score. Is there anything you can say directly, what I hate the most is that you always pretend to be a ghost, like the guy from the Bulls (referring to Phil Jackson). ”

"Well, don't be impatient, George, impatience will make you misjudge. The basis of victory is to score more points than your opponent or let your opponent score less than you, that is, both offensive and defensive, you must have one to restrain the opponent, or better, both to restrain the opponent. But George, in defense, you can't let the opponent get no points, especially a top power forward like Karl Malone, you can't completely limit him, and if you want to defend such a power forward, you have to have an equally good power forward. Li Rui finally began to shake off the "dry goods".

"Well, you're right, I did think a little extreme before, but if you don't guard against Malone, it will cause him a lot of trouble on the Lakers' interior." George Krent has always been worried about Malone's sudden outburst in the game.

"George, you're paying too much attention to Malone, the real core of the Jazz is not Malone, it's Stockton. Do you remember the first game of the regular season at the beginning? How did the Jazz team without Stockton feel to you at that time, did you feel that it seemed that the opponent's mind was not on the game and the game was extremely chaotic? ”

"Well, it seems that the Lakers roster was also starting to run in, but that game was easy. However, it may also be that the Jazz were not ready at the time, but now it is different, and they can reach the Western Conference Finals, which shows that they are still very strong. George was directing a playoff game for the first time, and although he had done a good job before, he was still a little anxious about the Western Conference Finals.

"This is officially Jerry Sloan's cleverness, and it is also his most fatal flaw, his team, the core will always be the point guard, others are just playing with the point guard, a team like the Jazz, can have a chance to reach the Finals, but will never win the championship, as long as his point guard is strangled, the basic Jazz will not have a chance to win." Li Rui spoke his mind to George Crent.

"Well, what you said makes a lot of sense, Li, I knew you would definitely have your own ideas, haha, okay, thank you, I feel like I have some ideas after listening to your words, I can let Liu Lai defend against Stockton alone in defense, I will never let the other party out of water because the other party is older than him."

"It's okay, George, I'm just giving you a new idea, as for how you choose, that's your problem, but I think you can develop Steve Nash properly, he's going to be a player who leads a style, and I'm optimistic about him."

"Thank you, Lee, seriously, have you thought about it, when will you help me, I have reserved a seat for you, I think as long as you can come to the Lakers, we can still win the championship next year." George Crent had previously invited Li Rui to join his coaching team, but Li Rui had to turn down George's invitation because of his work at Inglewood High School.

"Don't worry, George, I'll definitely come back next season to help you, play hard, I don't want you to go back to Los Angeles."

"Haha, don't worry, Li, as long as that kid is here, I have at least 80% confidence to win the championship." (To be continued.) )
