Chapter 458 maybe

Since the establishment of the NBA, any team with superstars, no matter how good the head coach is, may be regarded as a puppet by fans.

Phil Jackson is like this, because the players he coached were Jordan Pippen and O'Neal Bryant, and the years after Jordan retired and after O'Neal left the Lakers, the results were very poor, and he was questioned more and more.

The same is true for Spoelstra, who began to coach the Big Three of LeBron, Wade, and Bosh soon after becoming the head coach, and basically no fans will take credit for the achievements of the Heat.

Now David's situation is similar, the king has gone from last season's fish belly to this season's league big devil, whether it is the fans or the media, all eyes are focused on Zhang Feng, David is basically a marginal person,

What's more serious is that there are often live video evidence, when the king has fallen behind by a large score many times, it is Zhang Feng who is arranging tactics, and David is just standing on the sidelines and watching.

No one brought it up before, and now Popovich said it by chance, and the fans are just starting to fry the pot.

"As long as my king can win, if you are not convinced, you can also choose a star who can arrange tactics"

"It's strange that Manu and Parker didn't have a tactic on the spot? What you've been doing for more than a decade is all Popovich's work? When kawaii came back this season and Ade was injured, Popovich relied on tactics to defy the sky? ”

"Laughing pee, the king has won 1 championship in his entire history, what about pretending to be Nima? The nouveau riche has a really ugly face, and it's no wonder that Drummond Green mocks you for not having a background."

"Kings fans seem to have traveled back in time from the future, and you've seen the Kings win the championship with your own eyes?"

It was supposed to be a good discussion, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a personal attack on each other by the fans of the two teams, but fortunately, the interval between the two teams was only one day, and the mutual spraying of each other was finally suspended.

But everyone knows that this is the calm before the storm, and as soon as the results of the second game come out, the two sides will definitely be a tearing battle again.

Half an hour before the start of the game, the players of both teams returned to the locker room to assemble and wait for the coach to lay out the first tactical plan of the game.

In the Spurs locker room, Popovich looked calm, he stood with his hands on his waist and said: "In this game, we insist on attacking the inside, no matter how far behind, we must insist on attacking, unless there is a big vacancy on the outside, understand?" ”

"Kawaii started this game, and the defense focused on Zhang Feng throughout the whole process, mainly consuming his physical strength, trying not to let him make fouls, understand?"

Popovich arranged 2 tactics in a row, the Spurs players nodded yes, and on the side of the King's locker room, David said to Zhang Feng with a smile: "It is said that you are the head coach of the King, or you will arrange today's tactics?" ”。

"I'll arrange it, I'll arrange it, come and come, come around" Zhang Feng laughed and waved his hand to gather the king's people.

"Today's tactics are only three points. First, if you can grab 3 points, you can grab 3 points, and if you can't grab 3 points, you will hit the inside; Second, as long as the rebound is judged not to be available in the first place, it is not wanted; Thirdly, we can wrap the clip, we play the ball like in the third quarter, we can hold the ball and attack, the average age has a physical advantage, they definitely can't consume it."

"Is the coach okay?" Although Randolph believed Zhang Feng, he still habitually asked.

"Today's tactics, Zhang Feng has the final say, you all listen to him" David smiled and didn't make an evaluation.

After the start of the game, the Kings started with Zhang Feng, Rose, Bogdan, Willy, and Love, a pure and young five-small lineup, and before jumping the ball, Zhang Feng kept directing his teammates to stand.

In the jump ball session, Willy took the lead in touching the ball with his faster bounce speed, and then dialed it to Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng took the ball and accelerated directly, and the rest of the king also rushed forward like beasts seeing their prey, the Spurs didn't react at all, their defensive formation was instantly chaotic, and the person opposite Zhang Feng became Ade.

In the chaotic battle, Zhang Feng changed direction with a simple cross step to break through Ade, and then made a European step to bypass Gasol, who was supplementing the defense, and scored 2 points with an easy layup.

In the last game, Zhang Feng suddenly accelerated at the beginning and beat the Spurs with a rubbing of his hands, and this time again, Popovich's angry eyes were full of anger.

In the blink of an eye, the Spurs attacked, the players who returned to the defense of the Kings suddenly braked, Zhang Feng was the first to defend Murray, and the full-court pressing was instantly formed.

Murray obviously didn't expect the King's routine to be so deep, and when he found that his teammates were all blocked, he could only take it to the midfield, but Zhang Feng pressed step by step, he dribbled very hard, and he had to pay attention not to be stealed.

Near the halfcourt, Murray looked up and found that he was about to violate the law for 8 seconds, and in a hurry, he strode forward, but his hand movements did not keep up, and the basketball smashed on his foot, rolling to the backcourt in an instant.

Zhang Feng and Mori both turned around at the same time to grab the ball, Murray bowed and strode forward, but Zhang Feng was directly like a hungry tiger out of the cage, and a flutter jumped towards the basketball.

Zhang Feng glided for a while to reach the basketball position, and almost at the same time Maury also ran to arrive. But Zhang Feng didn't have to bend down again, he grabbed the ball in his hand smoothly, and then threw it to Rose, who followed up, who took the ball and jumped in three steps, and the center of Gold No. 1 shook the sky.

Although it was only a four-point difference, the momentum of the Kings completely overwhelmed the Spurs.

When the Spurs attacked again, the king pressed the whole court again, but this time Murray passed the ball to kawaii and successfully took the ball across the halfcourt, but kawaii just passed the half, and was caught by Bogdan and Zhang Feng, and could only pass the ball back to Murray.

According to Popovich's pre-game instructions, the big open space can be shot, Murray immediately shot, but unfortunately failed to hit, fortunately the rebound was picked up by Gasol.

As soon as Gasol got the ball, the king basket was wrapped by Willy and Lefu together, he could only hand the ball to Ade, but Ade also immediately encountered Lefou's defense, although he scored, he was tired enough.

Throughout the first quarter of the game, the Spurs gradually adapted to the rhythm of the Kings at any time and hitting the interior at every turn, and slowly began to catch up with the point difference. But in the second quarter of the game, the main lineups on both sides went down, and the Kings continued to play fast break under the leadership of Mason and Giles, and the Spurs were powerless, and by the time their main team came back, they were already 14 points behind.

The rhythm of the whole game was set, the main Spurs and the Kings consumed each other, the Kings bench burst the Spurs bench, and in the last quarter of the game, the Spurs were so tired that they made mistakes in receiving the ball, and the Kings took away the game in a wave.

After the game, Zhang Feng and David attended the press conference together, and the reporter directly asked about the 'puppet', and added that David didn't say a word on the sidelines in the second game, is the rumor true?

To this, David responded: "Of course, most of the credit for the King's current achievements is due to Zhang Feng, who has injected a new impetus into the King, as long as he is on the court, our teammates have the backbone. When it comes to the tactics, we basically discuss them as a team, and many times we have a game meeting where the players and the coaching staff discuss how to deal with the game......"

David spoke for a long time, which was to explain the problem of the 'puppet' coach, but the reporter felt that he had not dug up useful news materials, so he continued to ask: "Zhang Feng, in the first two games, you have completed the crushing of the Spurs, do you think you can sweep the Spurs 4-0?" ”

"Maybe"
