168. All-Star Physiognomy of the West
At five p.m., the Eastern and Western All-Stars warmed up in their home and home practice rooms at the Pelicans' home arena in New Orleans. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Western All-Star head coach is Popovich, and Liu Ren gathered around Popovich with Kobe, Duncan, Harden, Durant, and Paul to discuss tonight's game with Popovich.
Liu Ren, Kobe, Harden, Durant, Paul, these five people are basically the protagonists of this year's Western All-Stars, because Kobe Bryant spoke, the face of Big Brother is still given by others, so everyone else plans to help Liu Ren get an MVP.
Especially Durant, who has a good eye relationship with Liu Ren, patted his chest and promised Liu Ren to help him win the MVP.
"Greg, what tactics do you think you can arrange for Liu so that he can play to his strengths?" Bryant asked Popovich.
Kobe and Popovich have always been good friends, Popovich wants to try coaching a guard like Kobe Bryant with explosive scoring ability, and Kobe Bryant wants to try Popovich's team basketball, but both know it's impossible.
"That's weird, Kobe Bryant, you really don't want to win MVP?" Popovich asked in surprise, thinking that Kobe's remarks in the media were scene.
"Haha, I've already taken this thing 4 times, and this thing doesn't appeal to me, so I might as well let that kid have fun." Bryant laughed.
"I see, do you want to help Liu formulate tactics? Let's play according to your Lakers' style of play, Mike, not to mention anything else, his offensive coaching ability is no worse than mine, and the tactics he formulated for Liu must be the most suitable for Liu. Popovich didn't know if he really thought that, or if he didn't want Kobe, who could be their biggest rival in the playoffs, to learn something new.
Kobe pouted, and he knew it would be the answer.
Bryant didn't expect Popovich to improve his tactics with Liu Ren, he just wanted to set the tone for the Western Conference All-Star team and let everyone but the four top superstars in their respective positions know who was going to be in the game.
Paul and Griffin are both players of the Los Angeles team, and the Lakers don't look up and look down, and the two know that Liu Ren is running for MVP, and they are embarrassed not to give it.
Durant is because he has won it, and the attraction is much smaller, this time Westbrook has not been selected as an All-Star because of too many injuries this season, and he is not selected as an All-Star, as for Harden, he doesn't seem to want to win the MVP, Durant originally wanted to help the third brother get the MVP, but Harden didn't seem to want it, Durant pushed the boat to sell Liu Ren a favor, and his contract will expire in two years, and the Lakers are in such a good situation now, they can't say anything.
Except for these people, most of the other All-Stars are not qualified enough and don't have much right to speak.
Thackeray can ignore that he can be an All-Star because of the eighteenth generation of ancestors.
Lillard was able to show off in the first two days of the Rookie Challenge, but when it came to the All-Star Game, he was only a small supporting role, and he knew that, and he was dissatisfied, but he still knew his place.
Nowitzki and Duncan didn't care about these things in the first place, and old friend Kobe Bryant said that and just said that.
Aldridge and Curry have enough strength, but they don't have any say for the time being, Aldridge has always been low-key, Curry didn't start to have enough say in the league after winning the MVP in the 14-15 season, and now the two are still only following Kobe Bryant and Durant, the two superstars who are leading in the West.
"Kevin, I'm going to trouble you to help me attract defense today, most of the guys on the other side have good defense." Liu Ren expressed his gratitude to Durant, a superstar who has been famous for many years wants to give him a rookie among the All-Stars who has just counterattacked, he is not such a bad person.
"Haha, I heard that that guy from Carey is looking for you to provoke, and I heard John say that the East side seems to be ready to help Kyrie deal with you, and want to compete for the title of the best player in the class of 2011, John knows that this thing is always unhappy." Durant laughed.
John? It's Wall! Liu Ren thinks it's no wonder, Irving is a Cavaliers player, and if he wants to get an MVP, he will definitely go back to James, a former team superstar, for help, James still feels a little guilty about the Cavaliers, and he must help with such a small favor.
As a result, Wall, who entered the NBA only a year earlier than Irving, but was selected as an All-Star for the first time a year later than Irving, is certainly not happy.
"Liu, don't you thank me? I'm going to help you get the MVP too! Thank me, thank me! Harden suddenly popped up from the side, grinning and showing a neat row of big white teeth, the wolf tooth on the top of his right was broken, it was broken in college, and he looked quite happy.
Especially who Liu Ren remembered the photo of Harden University when he didn't have a beard and looked the same as Ji Ke Junyi, and he almost couldn't help laughing.
"Yes, James, I'm curious, your Rockets center was squeezed out of the All-Star by our Lakers center, why do you still want to help me? Shouldn't you take the MVP yourself and help that guy vent his bad anger? Liu Ren asked curiously.
Harden was speechless when he heard this, and he thought to himself, do you want to tell you that Howard guy is a cautious person? Originally, Howard was unhappy because he didn't make the All-Star and the other person on the team made the All-Star, and Harden was the other person, because Howard thought he was the strongest player on the team, but this year Harden was already stronger than him.
Harden is also okay, if he becomes an All-Star MVP, and Howard never wins, if he wins the All-Star MVP in front of Howard on the team, he feels that this guy will find an excuse to not play well.
"That and that...... That's right, that Kyrie wants to compete with our Los Angeles players for the MVP, how can he let him succeed! Don't worry, big brother, I'll help you! Harden said nonsense, by the way, he filled the posture of his predecessors, although he only entered the league two years earlier than Liu Ren.
"That kid from Kyrie definitely wants to take advantage of the heat in free agency this summer, we can't let him do it so easily, although I don't mind having one more strong team in the East, but let us be a stepping stone, I don't want to, so we're going to kick their ass hard!" Bryant came over and said that he didn't get anything useful from Popovich, and he was a little upset and decided to make the East look good in the evening's game.
As for the problem of tactical coordination, Kobe Bryant is not worried at all, the biggest difference between superstars and ordinary players is not the gap in strength, ordinary players have much better skills, but they can't play, this is not to say that his strength is not good, but he will not find his own position according to tactics.
The biggest characteristic of superstars is that they can easily find their place in a tactical system, if it is an open offensive system like D'Antoni, let alone a star, as long as the star is estimated to be able to play. (To be continued.) )
