"Hello fans and friends, this game will be played by me. Williams explains that tonight's guest is Mr. Van Gundy! ”

"Hi, I'm Jeff. Van Gundy. ”

"I'm Stan. Van Gundy. ”

"Thank you two gentlemen for coming to the live broadcast room in their busy schedules, but tonight's game may be a little boring." Jay. Williams said, "Why do you say that? Because tonight's game is a game of disparity, the Oklahomians have an absolute advantage, and if they win, they will go 4-1 and send the Los Angeles people home to fish. ”

"I wonder what you two think?"

"I agree with you, Jay." Stan. Van Gundy first opened his mouth and said: "The Lakers are in a catastrophe tonight, because they are much inferior to the Thunder in terms of mentality, state and strength, and they can't stand up this year with just one Kobe." ”

"What about you? Mr. Van Gundy Jr.? ”

"I think this game, the Lakers will win, and the game will move back to Los Angeles." Jeff. Van Gundy disagreed. "Oh, it seems that Mr. Van Gundy Jr. and we don't have the same opinion!" Jay. Williams said: "I don't know if you judge so, is there any specific basis?" ”

"of.course~" Jeff. Van Gundy said: "If I were the head coach of the Lakers, I would play the interior first, from the inside out, and gradually open up the offensive feeling, the Lakers have two All-Star interior lines, enough to do this, just need them to play a little tougher, the first few games lost, the Lakers twin towers kill too little inside, which is also a major reason." ”

"Hey~Jeff, you may not have coached in the NBA for too long, so you can't figure out the general trend in the NBA right now~" Stan. Van Gundy said: "In today's NBA, it is not enough to rely on the twin towers alone, the opponent only needs to go on the inside of the meat shield or the blue-collar interior with good defense to limit the offensive ability of the Lakers twin towers to the greatest extent." On the offensive end, they didn't need any shots, so the Lakers' twin towers lost at least half of their interior utility. On the other hand, the Thunder outside line, full of firepower, Kevin. Durant + Westbrook is simply a nightmare for the Lakers' outside players. In this way, the Thunder has the advantage, and it is a matter of course, basketball is essentially a scoring sport, and at this point, the Los Angeles people suffer too much. ”

"Okay~ Stan, I know I've been out of the league for a long time, but to be honest, you're pretty bad at using center and interior. Owns the league's No. 1 center, Dwight. Howard, who is in the weak Eastern Conference, is actually a round tour this year, and this kind of result is probably not convincing, right? "Don't look at Jeff. Van Gundy and Stan. Van Gundy is a brother, but the two have never dealt with each other very well, and public bickering in the media often happens, and basketball fans across the United States have long been surprised.

Of course, this is one of the reasons why ESPN invited the two of them to come.

Appropriate contradictions and conflicts are the only magic weapon to increase ratings.

Who doesn't understand this from ESPN?

Hear Jeff. Van Gundy brought up the stubble, Stan. Van Gundy immediately darkened his face and said in a deep voice: "Our team is short of major generals in this year's playoffs, and it is not easy to play to this extent, you don't have a backache when you stand there and talk!" ”

"Having a good relationship with the core and main players of the team is a compulsory course for the head coach of the team, right?" Jeff. Van Gundy didn't answer, but "talked about him left and right." Because basketball fans across the country know that Howard missed the playoffs except for a back injury, and the team's head coach Stan Brown. Van Gundy's feud was also an important reason. Over the years, Dwight. Although Howard is known as the boss and the big boss on the Magic team, what he can do is be a super blue-collar worker, and he didn't care when he was young, he felt that he had a lot of time anyway. It wasn't until the second decade of the millennium that Howard suddenly felt a wave of panic and grievance in his heart, one of which was that the head coach of the team gradually had a tendency to weaken his tactical position, which he could not accept. Howard knows that he is an athletic center, once this type of center loses his vigorous physical function, then the speed of the slide is no different from riding a slide, and he has more and more injuries in the past two years, all of which remind him that he has no time to wait.

Speaking of grievances, Howard is the first, thinking that he has no credit and hard work, and leading the Magic team to the Finals is the best proof, but unfortunately Orlando fans and the team's head coach are slowly turning a blind eye to it. Second, Howard, from the bottom of his heart, began to blame Stan. Van Gundy up. Why? Stan. Van Gundy has been coaching Howard since his fourth year, when he was only 21 years old, and it was at the stage when he was helped by the team's management to start a big "leveling" streak. As soon as Van Gundy came, he set a "super blue-collar" position for him, and then "coaxed and tricked" himself to believe that this was the best position for his career. For a short time, Howard became very interested in Stan. Van Gundy's words are very convinced, and there is no doubt that he led the Magic team to the NBA Finals in 2009 is the sweetest period for the "master and apprentice" duo. Howard Quastein. Van Gundy is the best head coach of the year. Van Gundy claimed that Howard should be the MVP of the year.

But the good times didn't last long, and gradually Howard's heart became bigger, he also longed for the title of supergiant, he also longed for the MVP award, and he slowly began to feel indifferent to the DPOY who had already won the soft hand. And Stan. Van Gundy, however, still wants Howard to play the role of the league's best defensive player, and doesn't want him to add to the offensive end. In this way, the seeds of contradiction are planted. As Howard gets older and his physical function declines, he begins to feel that the offensive end is becoming more and more difficult and weak, and he used to barely get a 20+10 All-Star statistic, which is not a big problem, but in 2010, it became more and more of a problem. So in the next two seasons, he increased his interior shots without authorization, and if you look at the basic data, it is clear that the highest average number of shots per game in Howard's career is played in these two seasons, which is 13+ shots per game. But this look is not good for the overall effect of the Magic team. Because of too much offense, Howard's defensive energy was distracted, causing him to lose his former enthusiasm and efficiency on the defensive end.

This may not be reflected in the underlying data, but if you look at the high-level data, it is clear that Howard's defensive efficiency and defensive activity, as well as limiting the opponent's average shooting points, are rapidly declining. Don't look at Howard's average blocks per game data when it doesn't exceed 3+, but compared to Ibaka, compared to Marcus. Camby, the king of blocks, his role as the overall defensive core of the team, the significance of the two is completely incomprehensible. Although Howard is not very outstanding just by looking at the block number, no NBA coach will choose the first two, because the power of the defensive core is far greater than the power of the block number.

In short, Howard can hold up a team, but those two block kings can't.

Stan. Van Gundy also saw this, so he didn't let Howard have more shots, because his defensive significance is more helpful to the team than offense. Otherwise, with the 2009 lineup of the Magic team, how could it be possible to break out of the encirclement and destroy the little emperor? Reaching the Grand Final?

Finally, and most importantly, Stan. Van Gundy saw the upper limit of the potential of this "big boy", he was a superstar enough, because defensive superstars are also superstars, but when have you ever heard the word defensive supergiant? If you want to become a defensive supergiant, he once made a statistic, at least an average of 20+ rebounds and 5+ blocks per game, because bias is a taboo for supergiants, and it is not so simple to make up for it. Even Stan. Van Gundy feels that the NBA can never have a supergiant with a bias, offense + defense + organization, and at least 2 of the three must be occupied to be worthy of the supergiant qualification. Howard: How many can he occupy? The answer is self-explanatory. And Stan. Van Gundy is not untested, Howard's singles under the basket are really unreliable, and when he encounters a slightly experienced insider, he can immediately make him deflated and disgraced. Let's take a bloody data, the league's players who have played more than 200 times in the back single, a total of 40~50 people, and our "Warcraft" Howard, what is the back play efficiency? The answer is the penultimate number one in the league!

Yes, you read that right, it's the penultimate one, as the league's No. 1 center, but with his back to the penultimate singles efficiency, when Stan. When Van Gundy got this statistic, he decisively gave up on the idea of developing Howard's individual offense.

The reason is very simple, this guy has no talent in this area, relying on a superhuman body, 20+ points is his limit, and even 23+ can't go up.

If only Tang Qian had known about Stan. Van Gundy's idea will definitely be supported with both hands and feet, because history has proven that Howard has indeed not averaged 23+ points per game in a season, and the basket attack will sooner or later be weakened by the old man of time. But all this, Howard himself doesn't feel, he even has some resentment towards Stan. Why didn't Van Gundy arrange more individual singles tactics for himself when he was a rookie, otherwise he wouldn't be so entangled now.

Over time, the contradiction deepened, and finally broke down and became a reality.

"You don't need to worry about this, I'm in Orlando anyway, and I can't take it for a few days." Stan. Van Gundy sulked a little and said, after all, falling out with his proud disciple would not be very pleasant for anyone.

"Well, even on the outside, the Lakers are not without strong points." Jeff. Van Gundy said: "Kobe Bryant and Durant, at least they can form a pair, it depends on how the defenders on both sides perform." If Kobe Bryant can finish Westbrook like the previous games, and Ci Shiping can limit Durant, then in this game, the Lakers will still have a good chance of winning. ”

"You're all self-speculating, Jeff." Stan. Van Gundy said disdainfully: "Let's not talk about whether Kobe can defend Westbrook, even if he barely stops it, for his own consumption, it is not ordinarily big, the Lakers' outside line, in addition to Kobe, is there any other stable scoring point?" Not at all! And I think that Ci Shiping can't defend Kevin at all. Durant! Not to mention that the Thunder also has James on the bench. Harden, the league's best sixth man, is enough to provide further firepower support for the Thunder! ”

"Best Sixth Man?" Jeff. Van Gundy pouted and said, "I also said that the Lakers have league block kings on the bench!" ”

"That Chinese center? What can he do? It's not that I look down on him, he and Serge. Ibaka is far from it! ”

"Stan, you still look down on Asian players so much." Jeff. Van Gundy said.

"It's true, I don't like to tell lies!"

"Really? So what do you think of Yao? Is he Asian? Did he blow up your precious apprentice? "Jeff. Van Gundy uncovered the old scar again. "I admit that a healthy Yao is indeed good, but now Howard has surpassed him, besides, do you think this Lakers' No. 29 can be compared to Yao Ming?"

"maybe~" Jeff. Van Gundy said: "It's not certain, Orientals come to the NBA, but they are all slow-burning types~"

"Nonsense! If he can surpass Yao, I will retire from the NBA coaching world and never coach in the NBA again! "Stan. Van Gundy was a quick temper, so he shouted loudly as soon as his neck stalked. "Okay, I don't have anything to lose anyway, do I? I bet with you. "Jeff. Van Gundy didn't care, and replied cheerfully.

In this situation, the Lakers began their fifth journey.

I have to say that this season's Thunder team is indeed full of momentum, from players to fans, all without exception.

And with the match point obtained, the Chesapeake Energy Stadium has already shouted like thunder.

Under the pressure of nearly 20,000 people, every member of the Lakers team felt full of pressure.

Kobe Bryant has become less talkative than usual, and this season, he has not yet adapted to the departure of the "old fish", so he did not take the initiative to take over the locker room. This makes the atmosphere in the Lakers team very depressing, very dignified, not everyone is the same as Kobe, can withstand the pressure to play, without the mood of the locker room leader, the whole Lakers team is shrouded in a dull atmosphere, Tang Qian is no exception.

It's no wonder that the Lakers players, the big score is already 1-3, and if they lose one more game, they will be out of the game, who can easily get it?

Of course, there is still a person who "swims against the current", and he is Andrew. Bynum, because tonight the Thunder invited the famous American female singer Taylor. Swift performed live, so he was in a surging mood and was very eager.

The owner of the nunnery seems to have always liked Taylor. Swift, but he was only a small player before, so he was very inferior in his heart, but this season is different, he turned over and became a starting All-Star in the West. So he felt like he could be on an equal footing with Taylor, intimate, oh no, cordial conversation.

Taylor was going to perform at the Chesapeake Energy Stadium tonight, and Tang Qian also knew about it, but tonight, his mind was all about avoiding elimination, so he didn't go over and talk to Taylor, who was about to perform.

This gave the owner of the nunnery a "chance to take advantage of", under the eyes of more than a dozen pairs of Lakers players, the owner of the nunnery got up, with a smile on his face, and then swaggered to the position in the center of the court.

"Hello, you're Taylor. Swift Small. Sister, right? I'm a core player for the Lakers, a Western Conference All-Star starting center, and my name is Andrew. Bynum, you should know me, right? The owner of the nunnery thought he was handsome and talked to Taylor, but in exchange, it was only Taylor. Swift's eyes rolled and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know you, I'm very busy right now, please don't bother me." ”

Just kidding, you ugly guy has such a big personal vendetta with Don, and you want to talk to me?

Die this heart before it's too late!

The owner of the nunnery didn't expect his goddess to be so faceless, and his face suddenly turned red and he was a little at a loss.

Seeing that this guy was not moving, Taylor said unceremoniously, "Why don't you leave?" I'm getting ready to perform! If you don't leave, I'll call someone! ”

Being beaten by the "goddess" like this, the owner of the nunnery retreated stupidly, but he didn't know what he did, and he was angry.

What time is it? The Lakers are on the verge of elimination! You still have the heart to talk? Going to pick up girls? This situation is simply unbearable!

Kobe Bryant was the first to stand up and say: "If you don't perform well tonight, then practice all night, don't sleep for me!" Anyway, you have more energy, don't you? After speaking, Kobe Bryant turned around and said to all the Lakers players: "In this game, everyone fights it as a war, either victory or sacrifice!! ”
