Chapter 798: The winning streak is over
The Lakers finally scored 16 points to harvest the Grizzlies, and the overall score reached 120 points again!
Bryant only scored 34 points in this game, but the team's overall scoring blossomed, which is what he wants to see. As it turns out, the No. 1 playmaking is the slowest declining basketball ability, and Nash is still averaging 10.7 assists per game at the age of 38, the season before he came to the Lakers. Now that he is given full possession and dominance, the Lakers team has at least so many scoring points in terms of scoring, and all of a sudden, Nash's average assists per game have risen instead of falling. They are currently averaging 13+ per game. Although he is unlikely to be in the race for the season's assist title due to his lack of appearances and the limitations of the season's freshly released Rondo clause, Nash is very satisfied with his comeback form.
Although he has to undergo a lot of recovery training like Kobe Bryant last year after playing every day, even sore, the body aches and pains still can't completely subside. But that's what he wants, isn't it?
For this result, he gambled on the rest of his last career with fuel tank fuel.
If you don't succeed, you will succeed.
For now, the situation is on the good side, and the Lakers as a whole are becoming more and more integrated and controlled by him.
Being able to reach the Western Conference Finals or even the Finals in the playoffs as a main point guard is Nash's only psychological bottom line.
If it was just a soy sauce on the field, a complete bench mixed ring, then for him, this ring would be a bit too depreciated.
So, this state is what Nash is satisfied with.
Los Angeles Lakers Win 33 in a Row to !! That evening Jenny. Bas was in charge and distributed free commemorative shirts and commemorative badges to all the fans, and it can be seen that she has put a lot of effort into this night in advance! Similarly, the titular head of the current Bath family, Jim Brown. Buss was a little bit worse, he was actually entangled in the cost and hesitation because he didn't know if the Lakers could win in the end. Bath contrast, fell into the spirit and pattern of inferiority.
Because there are many times, the opportunity is fleeting, seizing it, daring to bet and playing, is the key to winning.
His courage was, in a way, utterly inferior to Jenny's.
For example, tonight, Lakers fans only remember Jenny and not Jim.
And that's not all, Jenny. Buss also came to the Lakers' locker room in person and took out a shiny set. This thing is the commemorative ring of the Lakers' 33-game winning streak!! Maybe it's not too expensive, but it's ...... The meaning is greater than the reality. All Lakers players and members of the coaching staff have one engraved with their name and season jersey/position. In this way, the player's side is also completely "circle fans", and psychologically more or less biased towards Jenny. Bath here.
Wait for Jim. When Buzz received the news, it was all too late, Jenny. Buzz has done everything on behalf of the Bass family, and all of this has nothing to do with him, the so-called head of the family.
Jim. Bass went berserk in his private mansion that night, but what's the use of that? It's too late, it's too late, and it's not like no one has made a similar suggestion before on the staff team around him. But...... Not all Jim. Did Bass veto and hesitate to drop? So, he can only blame himself for this.
The thing he should have broken most was not the wine glass, but his own mediocre courage.
Lakers General Manager Mitch. When Kupchak saw this, he knew that he had chosen the wrong person, that he was on the wrong team, Jim. Bass is not a figure to stand up. So, is this the end of it? Mickey. Kupchak saw the employees in the Lakers' management and kept asking the deputy general manager, who is also Bonnie. Laughlin may still be respectful to himself on the surface, but after so many years in the management of the Lakers, how can he not feel the change in people's hearts?
Alas, look away, look away.
Mickey. Kupchak muttered alone in his office, not knowing what he was talking about. Buzz was still talking about himself.
At the same time, there was also a change on the other side of the ocean, and the power of the letter management was no longer stable, because the ultimatum given to him from above had almost come down. This year's first Basketball World Cup must produce results, if it is the same as the competition some time ago, it will be a mess, then please ask him to "take the blame and resign".
If it were someone else, the person who might replace him this time was not the so-called "layman in politics". Listening to some private messages, it is very likely that it is ...... If it is really him, then his position is unstable! Because that person, in the domestic basketball field, his achievements are too high and his reputation is too great, and there are not a few people who support him up and down.
Therefore, the last chance is the Spanish Basketball World Cup that is just around the corner.
As long as you have made "achievements" and taken out a "fig leaf", you are not without energy, nor is there no one to "shelter".
Damn it!!! If you can't, you will bow your head to that little cub for the time being!! After coaxing him to sign a contract within the system, everything will be talked about!!
"Chen Xin, you come in, I have something for you to do soon!" The letter manager grabbed the internal phone next to him and spoke.
But he didn't notice that Chen Xin, who had always been submissive, respectful, and groveling to him, had a slight change in his attitude and tone. It's very light, but it's no longer the flattering appearance it used to be.
At about the same time, Yao Ming is also dredged some "joints", don't think that he is a "fool without brains", it turns out that Yao Ming's mind and consciousness are very good. Otherwise, how do you think he will be possible in the future......
"Okay, so you mean to take the opportunity to resume the Lakers' live TV and webcasts, right?" The person on the other end of the line asked. "Yes, it's a good opportunity. 33 wins in a row! What's the point of this if it continues to be banned? Besides, now is the era of the full Internet, even if you blockade people internally, there is still a way to see it. In the long run, this is bad for basketball and basketball broadcasting in our country. Yao Ming's voice on the other end of the phone said: "So my opinion is to take the opportunity to let go of this opening, you don't need to call too big all at once, but you have to unblock it step by step." ”
"Xiao Yao, it looks like your relationship with that little guy is really okay." The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone suddenly smiled.
"I think he's the future of Chinese basketball." Yao Ming did not hesitate and told the other party directly, and it could be seen that his relationship with this person was quite close. "Oh? Rated so highly? Do you really think he can surpass you in basketball in the future? Let's stop talking dark words, and don't say those beautiful things to the outside world to fool me. Yao Ming nodded when he heard this and said, "It's true, his basketball potential is definitely better than mine, or a lot!" And most importantly, I've been in contact with him, and he has a heart that really loves basketball and loves domestic basketball. You know that school plan of mine, right? The first time he heard it, he expressed his willingness to invest and help, like this kind of thankless thing that does not see results for more than ten years or even decades, I have said it many times in China, and he is the one who responds the most positively. That alone is enough to impress me that he is not your average basketball player. ”
"Really? That's something you can cultivate. The person on the other end of the phone thought about it for a moment and said, "I will move forward, but I can't pack the ticket, after all, it's a layer apart, not the current management." Yao Ming said disapprerovingly: "You just need the answer, I don't have any other requirements here." ”
"You know, Xiaoyao, if you weren't really willing to contribute to Chinese basketball, I would never interfere, I have never changed for so many years."
"I know."
"So I helped him because you said he was the same kind of person, and if he didn't, I would never interfere again. Got it? ”
"I understand."
"That's okay, I had a relationship with basketball back then, and I've been thinking about Chinese basketball for so many years, and it's time to deal with the shortcomings over there. It is better to change to an insider who knows how to go up than to be blindly commanded by a layman for so many decades. ”

ESPN also sent out a big headline of congratulations! In this general situation, it would be foolish for them to go against the wind!
Henry. Abbott and the others directly skipped the Lakers and went to write about other teams and players.
This is called avoiding its edge.
They are all human spirits, and they know the benefits of taking a step back, and when the time is ripe, it is not too late for them to come back and "regain lost ground".
In the 81st game of the Lakers' 13-14 season, everyone thought that the Lakers would make persistent efforts and beat the Jazz. D'Antoni suddenly announced that in the following games, the Lakers will enter rotation mode. Everyone was disappointed for a while, but when you think about it, this is the most beneficial choice for the Lakers. Because of continuous battles and consecutive wins, the pressure on the Lakers up and down has been overloaded, and it has finally been completed, and it makes no sense to continue. It's better to let the main players rest more and prepare for the upcoming playoffs.
At this point, the Warriors of the original time and space made a good negative teaching material, in order to go 73-9, they actually consumed too much energy in the regular season. And people's spirit and concentration can't be tight all the time, so after the hard work, the feeling of exhaustion and burnout will follow. To put it mildly, the competitive state will move from a peak to a relative trough.
So D'Antoni's approach is supported by Kobe Don Nash, and they all think that it has been 33 consecutive wins, and it doesn't make much sense to continue. On the contrary, it is for the mental and physical, causing excess squeezing, which is actually not good for the upcoming playoffs. In addition, it is not a good thing to focus too much on winning streaks, and it is easy to be distracted and think too much when playing.
Therefore, D'Antoni deliberately wanted to interrupt the Lakers' victory.
Let the outside world overexpose and pay attention to the Lakers, and the heat will decrease.
In D'Antoni's words, even rock stars can't rock and roll without rest, and everyone has already exceeded their season tasks. Now let's take a little break and restart so that we can regain our energy for the upcoming playoffs.
D'Antoni is actually a good head coach, but the system is a little limited, but it doesn't mean that his coaching ability is not good.
After giving him an excellent No. 1 position, his ability, his system, was activated in an instant.
The Lakers' recent rhythm of play is what he wants.
Because the Lakers rested 3 of the four kings in the next game, only the youngest Tang Qian was still present, so the Lakers lost to the neat Utah Jazz by 4 points on April 14. Tang Qian scored a triple-double of 30 rebounds, 17 points, 12 blocks and 4 assists in this game, but the overall disadvantage still allowed the Lakers to be defeated. A magnificent 33-game winning streak came to an end in Salt Lake City after more than two months.
Although it ended the winning streak, it was not a bad thing for the Lakers players, who all suddenly felt the pressure on their backs and relaxed a lot. The whole spirit is no longer as wind-wound as it was some time ago, so unconsciously tense.
Call~
Tang Qian also breathed a sigh of relief, but this was only temporary.
The regular season is coming to an end, which also means the playoffs, are coming.
At that time, it was the real stage.
PS: It's a chapter today.,Strive to write more tomorrow~~~.
