After this game, the Lakers team was not very depressed.

On the one hand, the long road trip is finally over.

On the other hand, the strength of the Heat is indeed strong, and this skill is not as good as others.

Through this loss, the Lakers have found a lot of problems that need to be solved.

After the news interview in the locker room after the game, the whole team closed the door of the locker room and held a summary meeting.

Mike Brown asked the team to exchange and summarize some of the issues that arose in this game.

Because the game was played at half past three in the afternoon, there was no hurry to leave immediately.

The players spoke freely and the communication between the players has increased considerably since the last meeting in Washington.

The team is full of veterans, rich game experience, and good adjustment ability.

Basically, everyone can talk to each other and come up with a lot of ideas.

First of all, Kobe's problem, it's not that Kobe Bryant didn't play well, Kobe Bryant has recently changed his style of play, focusing on assists and strategies, and it should be said that the effect is very good.

In this game, Kobe Bryant handed out 5 assists in the first quarter and 9 assists in the whole game.

But Mike Brown believes that to play a strong defensive team like the Heat, it is still necessary to break up the opponent's defense with offense first.

Truth be told, the Heat weren't afraid of Kobe's passing.

Their high-speed perimeter rotation and the league's best perimeter pressing defense can limit the opposition's collective play in a playoff-caliber matchup.

The so-called multi-point flowering, the regular season makes sense, and when it comes to the playoffs in the same level of the series, one or two games are considered very good.

Unless you can play the offensive tactics smoothly to the extreme.

Otherwise, the tactical card is finished, and it still depends on the play of the superstar.

In this game, Kobe Bryant wanted to take over the game in the end, but found that it was too late.

Over there, James began to rush in the first quarter, and together with Wade, he scored 62 points, which had already broken up the Lakers' defense.

Therefore, Brown believes that in the future, Kobe Bryant will still insist on attacking more by himself.

Playing some teams in the middle and lower reaches, you can adjust your style of play according to the situation, with more assists and strategies.

Bryant nodded, agreeing with the coaching staff's analysis.

The second point is Howard, and Howard doesn't really have much of a problem.

After Toronto, Howard is on the road to change.

In this game, he basically didn't play any low-post singles, mainly eating cakes and rebounds in the front court.

The rest of the focus is on the defensive end.

It's a pity that the monster used to be a man who could resist James in terms of physical fitness, but now he is no longer so.

Mike Brown wants him to continue to maintain this reasonable distribution of offense and defense and continue to get his body back.

The third is Nash and Ci Shiping.

After getting through the discomfort at the beginning of the season, Ci Shiping's form has been picking up.

It should be said that he is a very good all-rounder and defender, and he has been shooting well from three-point recently, and his shooting percentage has increased a lot.

As for Nash, Mike Brown thinks he should increase his aggression a bit.

When Kobe Bryant has gradually transformed and is passing-oriented, Nash will shoot more accordingly.

He has to be strong enough on the offensive end to make up for the big holes on the defensive end.

Otherwise, Nash's presence on the court could be a side effect.

Nash agrees with Brown that he has been adjusting to his form lately.

The All-Star Game is just around the corner, and it's a chance to relax.

After the All-Star break, the league is going to go into a sprint.

Judging by the current rankings, the Lakers are considering whether to hit the first place in the league and get all the home-court advantage.

It is better to preserve strength, fight normal encounters, win if you can, and do not make hard requirements on the record.

In short, the coaching staff and management need to respond according to the schedule and health conditions that follow.

After talking about the question of the big guy in this circle, it was Li Liang's turn.

Mike Brown held the small notebook in his hand and coughed, "Bruce, let's talk about your problem." ”

Li Liang sat in front of the locker and raised his head to scan the entire locker room.

Everyone didn't speak, and everyone was talking freely just now.

Li Liangdao: "Say, talk about my problems, I don't think I'm playing very well, I need some guidance." ”

Still no one spoke.

Do you dare to say it?

The big leader said at the meeting, "Please criticize more", do you dare to criticize?

Pull you out for five minutes of trash talk!

In fact, everyone misunderstood Li Liang, so Li Liang would not be like this.

Li Liang said: "I don't think I'm a perfect player, everyone has something to say, whoever says a word, invite whoever has a drink at the bar at night, drink the best wine." “

As soon as Li Liang said this, everyone was excited.

It's not because I want to drink, but because I think if I can scold Li Liang and make him bleed, why not?

Meeks raised his hand and said, "Can you say anything?" ”

Li Liang nodded: "You can say anything, the group meeting, you should speak freely." ”

So Meeks said, "Bruce, I think your socks stink too much, can you change a pair?" ”

As soon as Meeks said this, he was warmly approved by the whole team.

Li Liang's socks are really ...... It's hard to put into words.

Bryant suggested that Li Liang should leave his socks at the American Airlines Center as revenge after the loss.

Nash objected, saying it would lead to an investigation by the FBI and CIA, who might think there had been a terrorist attack.

"Bruce, I think your knee pads are too ugly, why don't you change them to a better one?" Howard raised his hand to speak.

Li Liang's two blue knee pads are really earthy, and they don't match the color of the Lakers' jersey at all.

"Bruce, your clothing style should be rich, I remember that you wore a nice and trendy outfit in the first opener, why did it become more and more mediocre later?"

Jamison has another problem with Li Liang's clothes.

Bryant thought it was necessary for everyone to gather the old clothes they had worn before and open a flea market for Li Liang to choose from.

Nash said he could donate a box of socks.

Speaking of which, it was not a technical and tactical discussion at all, and it became a "Bruce Lee Tucao talk show." ”

Mike Brown tried to control the situation at first, but then the thing stood next to him, covering his mouth and laughing maniacally as he listened.

Li Liang didn't refute at first, he felt that if this could make everyone happy, it would be good to release it after losing.

But then the situation got out of control, and everyone complained more and more, and it was soon possible to gather into a collection of jokes.

Li Liang saw that the situation was not good, and as soon as the hair dryer was turned on, everyone was blown silent.

, you are all one by one, you have thick eyebrows and big eyes on weekdays, and you have a lot of grudges against me in your stomach?

"Please, we're a basketball team, not a circus! Can you focus on basketball? I think you're jealous of me, jealous of my handsomeness, all of them are big and tall, but their hearts are so small! ”

Li Liang's counterattack looked very weak, and Mike Brown, as well as the rest of the coaching staff, as well as the trainers, Viti and others were going crazy with laughter.

Finally, when I finally got serious, Mike Brown said a few points.

The main reason is the dilemma that Li Liang faces when facing one-on-one marking.

At present, more and more teams are beginning to pay attention to the need to pinch Li Liang.

Pinching Li Liang is not because Li Liang is really easy to strangle to death, but because the income from pinching him is relatively high.

Any decision made on the pitch is one that takes into account inputs and outputs.

For example, why Kobe Bryant can enjoy a three-person bag, while most of the average star is a two-person bag.

Because of the investment of the three-person bag Kobe, the income is relatively high.

Kobe Bryant will be limited, and his team will have the potential to win.

If you use a double bag, the benefit is relatively low, because he can't prevent Kobe, he will still break out in a wave.

In the case of ordinary stars, one person is not enough to defend, and there are too many three, and two people are just right.

As for saying that a three-person, two-person bag will cause someone else to open it, that's another problem.

The so-called lesser of two evils, two glasses of poisonous wine in front of you, often choose the less toxic.

Survived, didn't die, and succeeded.

And now many teams playing the Lakers have found that instead of sending three people to cover Kobe, it is better to send one person to stare at Li Liang.

Popovich analyzed this tactical point early in the season.

Half a season has passed, and some coaches have only realized.

Because Li Liang's technical defects are relatively large, sending a player can deal with him.

And once he is done, the Lakers' offensive losses are actually huge.

It can even be said that the strength has dropped a bit.

It's a bit similar to when Turkoglu was in the Magic, and the Magic themselves didn't realize Turkoglou's important role and easily let him go, causing the team's offense to collapse.

As for how to solve this problem, Mike Brown has not found a way for a short time.

Everyone discussed for half an hour, and it was time for dinner.

Li Liang wanted to invite everyone to the bar to drink according to the agreement, and he wanted to drink the most expensive one.

A group of people left behind the frustration of losing the game, ended their road trip, and took a good break before heading back to Los Angeles.

Li Liang invited Mike Brown to go with him, but Brown didn't agree, he said he wanted to go back and watch the video.

As a head coach, Mike Brown is still very dedicated.

At this time, Mike Brown dragged Li Liang aside and said, "Actually, there is a solution, which is very simple, but it is also difficult. ”

Li Liang said: "Say, don't sell Guanzi." ”

Brown said: "Practice your offense with the ball. ”
