Chapter 666: 66666
As the season continues, the Kings continue to struggle ahead, and under Phil Jackson's extremely subtle adjustment of the team's atmosphere, although there is no obvious infighting within the team, the cracks still exist.
Sometimes, the Kings have a tough opponent that fuels their fire, and the whole team will play fairly together, working hard and playing very high-quality offensive and defensive performances. Wei Shao can't get up, Bynum doesn't lose his temper, Beasley defends seriously, Vitesse can pass the ball, and even McGee can show off his steps under the basket, and the King will win.
More often than not, the Kings are a little unlucky in the face of opponents who seem to be inferior to the Kings in all positions. Some players clearly play according to their temper on the pitch, just trying to prove that they are right. Against a weak team, or a team on the fringes of the playoffs with a similar record to themselves, the Kings played like a loose game with no tactics to speak of. Some people are running triangle attacks, and others are how happy they come, all kinds of rushing rhythms to push fast attacks.
In these games, the Kings often lose, and sometimes they lose quite aggrievedly, and in the end they lose a little bit.
And the reason for the loss is generally who did not make the right judgment at the right moment, sent a mistake, or a glorious iron.
In addition, in other games, the Kings sometimes led by a large margin at halftime and played fluently. In the second half, they began to fight on their own, and it seemed that many players felt that they were already ahead so much anyway, and it didn't matter if they took a little wave.
Then it was reversed and lost.
It is not only the fast-break players of Wei Shao's faction who made these mistakes, but also Bynum at the top, Stevenson who made brainless moves, and so on.
After these games, Gu Yu, without exception, sprayed at the media, and the muzzle of the gun was very resolute, even if a teammate played like, he would definitely defend it.
I don't know if this is the credit of the book "Management......
Of course, in the team, Gu Yu should still spray whom, and the other players have nothing to say to him. Even if he didn't accept his Wei Shao, he was sprayed by Gu Yu after he beat badly, and he basically didn't fight back.
The reason is simple:
In these losing games, Gu Yu almost didn't make the slightest mistake.
"It's no wonder that my cousin is a scorer after all, and when the ball goes to him, the first priority is to find a way to score. When the opponent's bag comes, he will need to pass the ball and judge the situation. It is very difficult to make any mistakes at the judgment level in this style of play, at most it is a mistake if the pass is not passed, which is inevitable, Jordan will also make mistakes! ”
In the TV show, O'Neill, one of Gu Yu's die-hard fans, said: "When my cousin feels good, the team loses, not his pot." He did everything he had to do, he got the points he should have gotten, and he even got the points he shouldn't have got, and he lost because of the choice of his teammates, which he couldn't control. ”
"And when my cousin feels bad, he will take the initiative to take responsibility and admit after the game that he feels bad and should be responsible for the loss. But the question is his positioning as a scorer, does he not shoot just because he has a bad hand? Definitely not. So I don't think he can be blamed for the loss, even if he doesn't feel good. ”
After speaking, Barkley looked at the camera, half funny and half serious: "So Kobe, I was not wrong back then, understand??" ”
"Hahahaha, you're a stingy guy, you still care about that kind of thing......" Barkley, Smith and the others all laughed, and the scene was a joyful atmosphere.
"But then again, so far this season, my cousin has only had a handful of games that don't feel good, and this data really has to be maintained until the end of the season!"
The host said: "With an average of 40.7 points per game, 4.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists, my cousin has to break the average score record of modern basketball if he continues to play like this!" ”
"So what? The team's record is not ideal, and the pot for the score is still scored for him. Barkley shook his head next to him and said: "I don't believe you look at the results of this year's All-Star vote, my cousin was the vote king last season, what about this season?" The number of votes was surpassed by Chen again! ”
Everyone knows that Barkley is a fan of Chen Mu's brain, and it is not surprising that this kind of argument came out of Barkley's mouth.
But Smith's scolding of Barkley has become an instinctive reaction, and he will scold him no matter what Barkley says.
"You can pull it down, my cousin's vote was exceeded by Chen, which is what happened in the last period. This is because Chen pulled a wave of votes on his social network, and his cousin made it clear in his live broadcast room that everyone should not vote for him, and he was annoyed, so there was such a result. ”
Smith squinted at Barkley and said: "Your statement is untenable, my cousin is still the No. 1 popular in the league, no doubt about it!" ”
"Then you say that Chen's data is not worthy of being the first vote!" Barkley blushed and said: "He still averages 33+16+5+1+2 data per game, tell me who is better than him in this league??" ”
"Aren't you just not used to seeing the popularity of inside stars being surpassed by outside stars, I just said that my cousin is the first in popularity, and I didn't say that Chen is not worthy of the ticket king!" Smith shook his head and said, "I've been looking at Chen's data for so many years, and I'm aesthetically tired!" Anyway, I think my cousin's data is even more shocking~"
"I think you're going to have a heart to get along with my fat bastard." Barkley squirted.
"You bite me." Smith bared his arm.
"I ...... Ahh!!h ”
So, a lively scene of a fat man gnawing Smith was staged in the studio......
"Hahaha, okay, okay, almost two!" The effect of the show exploded, and O'Neill also waited for a while before stepping forward, pulling away the two living treasures one by one, and said: "Let's talk about the trading deadline!" What potential trades are feasible and effective for teams around the league that look like they need to change? Charles? ”
"Phew! This old skinny man's meat is so unpalatable! Barkley took a sip and said in Smith's murderous gaze, "According to me, the most important thing to trade is the Kings!" ”
"That's what a lot of fans think." O'Neill became the host seriously: "......What is your opinion?" ”
"Shooter! A little less singles! A little less inside! Ba Fat Man said: "The current staffing of the Kings, I can't say a good thing, in the era of Kenny and me, maybe it can be successful." In Shaq's time, it's a little harder to succeed. Now, success is a fool's dream! ”
"Not really." Smith continued: "Modern basketball has changed a lot, but the Kings also have only one traditional interior player, and that is Andrew. The other Javiers, Spets, Dream Chasers, etc., are all inside lines of the new era. ”
"The next new era! I'm going to correct you, in addition to chasing dreams, the king's other inner lines can only be regarded as a new era! Barkley said: "The inside line of the real new era should be like Chen, or chasing dreams, but it is a little shorter, and it is like Anthony Davis!" ”
"What do you mean...... Neither can Cousins? O'Neill asked.
"Cousin, let's do it! At least there is a face frame, and the range is still very long. Barkley said: "It's not like Andrew, in this era, you can only stand under the basket and have a fart??" I didn't see the crying dad who was bullied by Horford and other insiders this season, and he will only be beaten worse in the future! ”
"But I've heard the news that the Kings have another guy who may be coming back from injury, and maybe you'll be even more angry with the Kings lineup when the time comes." O'Neill sold a pass.
Who is this person who is about to make a comeback? Many people already know the answer.
But in the eyes of most people, this guy is really useless in modern basketball. Not to mention the age, if you stop fighting for so long, you will be a cannon fodder.
It's better to trade.
How many fans think this way in their hearts, the Kings really need to change.
Soon after, the 2014 All-Star Weekend kicked off in New Orleans.
What happened during the All-Star Weekend caused some subtle changes in public opinion.
"The rookie game is over! Team Grant Hill wins!! The NBA in the new era will be composed of these young players!! ”
First up was the rookie game, where Grant Hill's team won, and the MVP was awarded to Drummond, a traditional center who Barkley described as "useless at all".
The performance of 30 points and 25 rebounds further increased Drummond's reputation, but what happened in the rookie game did not seem to be a proof of what was bad.
When it comes to the All-Star Game, it has directly become the world of performances by outside stars, even the inside Chen Mu and Griffin who play well are what Barkley calls the "new era inside".
Traditional giants, such as Hibbert and Howard, have no sense of existence and just go through the motions.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the confrontation between Gu Yu and Chen Mu.
At the last moment, the two sides were tied, and Chen Mu's face frame dribbled under the crotch and then turned around to break through the two-handed violent dunk, giving the Eastern Army a 2-point lead.
Looking back, Gu Yu sacrificed the back-to-back singles that he had spent most of the season, and hit a backward jumper to press the whistle, and the Western troops equalized.
Entering overtime, Chen Mu's firepower was still ferocious, and he broke through and scored in various frames like a small forward.
But he couldn't stand the performance of Gu Yuding on the opposite side, like a traditional insider, and the defenders of the eastern team were dizzy.
In the end, relying on Gu Yu's back to turn around to the basket and change hands to make two plus one layups, the west won the game.
Gu Yu also became an All-Star MVP with a personal score of 38 points in the admiration of "66666".
Soon after, the trade deadline passed amid much antiquation.
Kings, without any action.
The man Barkley said was abandoned by the times, but he really ushered in his comeback.
