“TIME-OUT！”

The referee blew the whistle and the game went to a timeout.

As the Kings players walked off the court, Dream Green was still roaring, his hands clenched into fists, and he was very excited.

"Good ball, cousin! What a ball!! Coming to the bench, Green followed Gu Yu all the way to all kinds of silly music: "That ball just now was too domineering!" After entering, we finally overtook the score hahahaha!! ”

"Proud of your size." Gu Yu didn't eat Green's set, turned around and glanced at Green like an idiot and said, "They put the ball." ”

“…… Well?? ”

Gu Yu's words, all the king players were stunned.

Put, put?

My cousin's over-the-top three-point was put by the Spurs??

Cousin, have you drunk too much and your brain is watting??

"W-How is this possible!" Green obviously didn't believe Gu Yu's statement, and waved his hand again and again: "Their home field, they have been leading us by double-digit points throughout the game, and when we are about to catch up and overtake, let you shoot three points?" They don't have a problem with their brains! ”

"Hehe, my cousin is right."

Without waiting for Gu Yu to answer, Phil Jackson spoke: "But what my cousin said was a little exaggerated, the ball just now can't be said to be put by the Spurs, but it is true that at that moment, Spurs Danny Green had the opportunity to rotate and interfere with his cousin's shooting, but he didn't do it." At the end of the acceleration, he hesitated, so that his cousin could get that perfect shot. Otherwise, with the defense in front of him, the cousin is still very likely to score, but the shooting rate will definitely be affected. ”

"This ......"

Phil Jackson's words were unacceptable to all the Kings players on the scene.

Especially Wei Shao, who was sitting on the side, wearing a suit and leather shoes.

"What nonsense are you talking about, old man?!" Wei Shao was not happy, stepped forward and frowned: "Danny Green's not called hesitation, because he himself knows that even if it is rotated, it is impossible to prevent his cousin's three points, and he may be caught by his cousin's feint, and then burst into the inside line to score, and become the background board himself, so he simply gave up!" ”

"Yo, I didn't expect you to know how powerful I am." Gu Yu accosted.

“…… Phew! Do you want to face it?! Wei Shao sprayed back directly.

"Hehe, it's okay for you to say that, and understand it like that, but as far as the situation on the field is concerned, my understanding is not like that." Phil Jackson laughed: "It's not just this round, there are four or five rounds in a row ahead, and it's all about the same situation. We had good chances, but against Spur, none of them were perfect enough. In the final moments, the Spurs players were more or less willing to give up resistance, so that we had the perfect shot. ”

As he spoke, Phil Jackson stretched out his hand and pointed at Green: "For example, the fast-break dunk you had earlier, our chance is out." But have you ever noticed that when you jump up and get ready to dunk, Kawhi Leonard is already chasing after you? According to his defensive awareness and running and jumping ability, if you really want to fight, you can jump up and fight you in the air, and if you don't do it, you will chase the hat. ”

"Impossible!" Green showed off his flesh: "Damn, he dares to fight me in the air, I won't send him directly to the sauna!" ”

"What are you a** Yu ......" everyone complained speechlessly.

"Hehe, having said that, it's okay to understand whatever you want, anyway, our goal is definitely to win this game. As long as you can win, it doesn't matter what you think. Phil Jackson continued to laugh and said, "My cousin and I are just telling the truth what we see. ”

Is that really the case......?

The Kings players were a little unacceptable at once, but when you think about it, it seems to be true.

Otherwise, the Spurs' super-high-pressure defensive strategy that has been continuing since the beginning of the game, why did the intensity drop in intensity at the critical moment of the fourth quarter?

Whether the Spurs are really releasing water or not, I'm afraid only the Spurs players and coaches will know, but it is not difficult to judge from all kinds of signs that the Spurs team that is playing on the court now is definitely not their best state.

"Now you don't have to think about those problems, just play this game and take home the win." Seeing that the players were thoughtful and obviously understood the reasoning more or less, Phil Jackson continued: "The rest of the things, we'll talk about it after we get to the playoffs." ”

"Yes!!"

The Kings players are also straight-headed, and as soon as Phil Jackson said a few words, everyone's fighting spirit was raised again, leaving the so-called Spurs and other problems behind.

“HANDS-TOGETHER！”

Gu Yu shouted, and the players' hands were put together.

“1、2、3…… KINGS！！！！ ”

Play!

When the players were about to play, Gu Yu walked to Phil Jackson's side.

"Old man with a winged bucket."

Lowering his voice, Gu Yu obviously didn't want this conversation to be heard by his teammates, and squinted at Wei Shao not far behind him, and found that the latter was constantly clapping and cheering for everyone, so he continued: "They release water, shouldn't it be for ......?"

"Hehe, that's it." Phil Jackson nodded: "That's what you think." ”

With that, Phil Jackson turned his head and looked at the bench on the other side.

The old drunkard was sitting firmly on the bench, looking at the court with his eyes, without any tactics, letting the "assistant coach" Ginobili on the field talk to the players.

Knowing too much.

As the opponent of the old drunkard for so many years, Phil Jackson really knows this old opponent too well.

If there are four types of coaches in this league, then in Phil Jackson's mind, the classification should be like this:

The first is that the tactical strength is average, but he is diligent and has some expertise in a certain aspect. For example, Bread McBrown's superstar nanny attributes, Champion Coach River Doc Dou Greaves's Chicken Soup Master, and so on.

Second, in terms of tactics, you can't control the locker room, you don't have any long-term plans, and you have to contradict the stars from time to time. For example, the first Mavericks coach Mad Devil coach Dick Motta, and the new generation coach Jason Kidd on the plane where you and I are and so on.

Third, after years of immersion, the tactical layout ability is extremely mature, a person represents a system, any team into his hands, may not be able to turn decay into magic, but will definitely improve the old-school coach. For example, the famous Jerry Sloan, and Iverson's happy enemy Larry Brown, etc.

The fourth and highest level is tactics, brains, strain, and control, all of which are first-class, and as long as the team's strength allows, you can directly impact the ace coach of the championship. Like Cardinal Auerbach, and like Phil Jackson himself.

As for the old drunkard Zhuge Vic......

In Phil Jackson's mind, the old drunkard belongs to the "fifth type of coach" who has escaped from the Three Realms and is not rooted in any of the four coaching styles.

Whether this is a false praise or not, it doesn't matter if others say it. But Phil Jackson himself, as one of the most successful supercoaches in NBA history, definitely has the capital to judge.

In his eyes, the horror of the old drunkard is not only his super learning ability, but also his super mind that can lead the team to keep up with the pace of evolution in the league forever. It's more that he can do whatever he wants within his purview, at his own pace, and do whatever he thinks will help the team grow and win.

Like now.

"Good! The race is back!! Players from both sides entered, and the Kings side is still the lineup in the decisive stage, and there is no change! Spurs' side...... Well?!! ”

For example, at this moment, in order to be able to really seize the opportunity to pinch our king in the playoffs, the moment will definitely make a shocking move.

This old drunkard can really do anything......!

"Spurs replaced ?!!"

In the midst of an exclamation, the San Antonio Spurs, when the team was only one point behind and there was still a minute and a half of the game time, actually changed to a full bench lineup!

"This ......?!!"

In the sideline media seat, Xiao Yu was stunned.

Although she knew very well in her heart that this was the style of Spurs, the style of an old drunkard. For the sake of victory, for the road to the future, even if it is a strong dialogue, even if it is a key battle broadcast in the United States, as long as he feels that the team will need to rest, the old drunkard will directly wave his hand and take a turn.

But at this time, the Spurs directly replaced the substitute, which undoubtedly released a signal:

"We didn't want the victory in this game in the first place, and now that you king has finally caught up, then we will have great mercy and give you the victory directly!"

This approach, from Spurs' point of view, can be said to be understandable. After all, for the sake of the playoffs, they now have the power to pick opponents, so why not?

But for the king, there was no doubt that it was a great insult.

This is equivalent to the old drunkard using his own actions to tell the Kings' players bluntly: In our eyes, you are a much weaker team than the Grizzlies, and it will be easy for us to beat you in the playoffs, but it will take a little effort to beat the Grizzlies. So we decided to put you in the playoffs, and if we play a series with you, it's up to us to try our best or not if we win or lose.

That's all, that's all.

This situation may make some Kings fans feel lucky, and even thank the Spurs for giving the Kings the opportunity to enter the playoffs, so that they will not encounter the dilemma of not being able to enter the playoffs in the first year after the big change.

But for some people, this is undoubtedly a fire ignited on top of dry firewood.

For example, Gu Yu.

"Brother Gu Yu......!"

"What, what?!!"

Sure enough, Xiao Yu's shout had not yet reached the court, and Gu Yu on the field was already angry.

"You ......!"

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yu walked straight to the Spurs bench with boundless anger, glared at the old drunkard with his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "I respect you as the league champion coach and the famous commander of the dynasty, but what do you mean by this?!" ”

"Oh?"

The old drunkard was looking down at what he didn't know in his hand, when he heard Gu Yu's voice, he raised his head slightly, he couldn't see the slightest change in mood on his face, he glanced Gu Yu up and down, and said coldly: "What we mean, as you can see." ”
