On February 22, 2001, at the Oakland Arena in Golden State, although the Warriors have not had a good record recently, several stands were quickly filled by Warriors fans, because the Warriors' opponent in this game was the Lakers, the Lakers who were in the limelight.

Although the Lakers in the 2001 season were inferior to the Spurs in terms of regular season record, the 2000 championship has made the Lakers the hottest team in the league.

Richard slowly walked out of the passage, he had just set up his tactics in the dressing room, and now he was on the pitch early, ready to supervise the players to complete the warm-up.

As soon as Richard appeared, the Oakland Arena immediately sounded boos, Richard immediately frowned, and was just about to let the players behind him hurry, Richard turned his head and found that a large group of people suddenly came out in front of him, carrying long guns and short cannons, and looked at Richard in a daze.

Well, it's actually a reporter, Richard has avoided this group of reporters for 4 games, and this game was actually caught by this group of reporters!

"Hey! Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the game, what are you doing here? Richard raised his hands and looked over the field, signaling the reporters not to surround him like that.

"Mr. Richard, don't think we don't know, your team is warming up, and the Lakers haven't come yet, and it's still early for the game to start!" A reporter in the crowd said quietly.

Richard was helpless: "Okay, okay, if you have anything to ask, hurry up, I still have to guide my players to warm up!" ”

"Mr. Richard, why don't you attend all the pre-match press conferences and post-match press conferences? This is clearly not like what a head coach of an NBA team should do! A reporter holding an ESPN microphone asked first.

Richard spread his hands: "The NBA doesn't stipulate that head coaches must attend pre-game or post-game press conferences, right?" The ESPN reporter who said it had nothing to say.

However, Richard knew that the reporters' difficulties had just begun, and he had already avoided the press conference for four games, and this group of reporters must be holding back their strength to find it back.

Yahoo Sports: "Mr. Richard Cohan, you have been avoiding us, is it related to the fact that the Warriors have lost four in a row since you took office?" ”

Richard: "4 in a row? Where does this begin? The Warriors are a young team, we never have a record in mind, and the development of young players is what we focus on. ”

USA Today: "When it comes to young players, everyone has a question, why are players like Devin George, Michael Reid and Ralph Alston who are absolute substitutes in other teams reused? ”

Richard: "Because I think they have a lot of potential, and their progress is there. ”

Sports Illustrated reporter: "Is there potential?" But the Warriors have already lost a couple of games because of them. ”

Richard: "It's normal to lose, you always start to win when you lose, okay, it's almost time, I think you're done with your questions, right?" Richard didn't wait for the group of reporters to reply, just beckoned, and left into the distance.

Leaving behind a group of reporters who looked at each other, Taylors Frank of Sports Illustrated looked at Richard in the distance, sneered and said: "Okay, with these things, it's enough for us to write!" ”

Before the game began, the game's commentator Hubby Brown was a little surprised by the Warriors' home fans' boos for Richard: "It's amazing that Warriors fans would boo their head coach, to be honest, I've watched the Warriors vs. Raptors, Richard Cohan is a good coach, and a lot of things in his tactics are eye-catching!" ”

And the commentary of this partner Hubby Brown is naturally the on-site commentator of the Oakland Stadium, Dune Cousinville's face is a little unsightly: "Maybe Richard Cohan is really a little level, but he also has a lot of problems, so, Hubi, it's normal for Richard Cohan to be booed, he is not as good as you say!" ”

For Doon Cousinville's rebuttal, Hubby Brown could only shrug his shoulders and spread his hands, maybe Dough Cousinwell knew Richard Cohan better than him, but he still felt that Warriors fans should not boo Richard, because this young man did a really good job!

After the warm-up, the game is about to begin, and in this game Richard still put Michael Reed on the bench, and the starting lineup sent point guard Bob Soula, shooting guard Larry Hughes, small forward Kenny Thomas, power forward Antoine Jamison and center Eric Dampier. The Lakers' starting lineup is a bit scary, with center Shaquille O'Neal, power forward Horris Grant, small forward Rick Fox, scoring guard Kobe Bryant, and point guard Brian Shaw.

The Lakers' lineup is their all-main lineup, which shows that they attach importance to the Warriors, even though the Warriors are now the bottom team in the West, the Lakers still sent an all-main team.

Richard Cohan became serious, this game was even more difficult than he imagined, the Lakers played with all the main forces, for the Warriors, a very likely scene is - the Warriors were beaten by the Lakers in the first half, and the Lakers' main team clocked in in the two quarters of the game and ended the game......

Richard obviously didn't want to see such a scene, even if he lost, Richard would lose the scenery, so before the players came on the field, he emphasized a few more words: "Play patiently!" Look for more opportunities in the offense, and defense, Larry, you're going to face Kobe Bryant, Eric, if you can't stand Shaq, remember to say it sooner! ”

Richard named Larry Hughes and Eric Dampier, the two nodded, and did not perfunctory Richard, although Larry Hughes was ruthless yesterday, but his ruthlessness has nothing to do with Richard, Larry Hughes has learned from the game against the Raptors that even if you want to fight with the competitors in the team, you can't release water in the game, and releasing water will only make you insignificant.

So Larry Hughes just said to Eric Dampier that he wouldn't pass Michael Reed even a single ball throughout the game! Don't do even a single pick-and-roll cover!

"The players on both sides have already warmed up, and we saw Coach Richard Cohan say a few more words next to his players, okay, the game is on, the starters of both teams are already in their positions, and they are going to jump ball!"

At the beginning of the game, the two sides jumped the ball, and Eric Dampier pressed Shaquille O'Neal, dialed the basketball, and grabbed the ball in the first wave of offense.

The Lakers quickly retreated, and it can be seen from their position that they are playing man-to-man defense, Richard smiled at the corner of his mouth, the Warriors' tactics are the least afraid of man-to-man defense, all kinds of fancy blocking and dismantling will make the players who mark the defense lose their goals to be marked, for the Warriors, the Lakers chose such a defensive method, which undoubtedly gave the Warriors a chance.

Larry Hughes held the ball, he was at the top of the middle arc, raised three fingers, this is Larry Hughes's No. 3 singles tactic, Eric Dampier and Antoine Jamison quickly formed a human wall near the free throw line, Kenny Thomas and Bob Sula also quickly started to run, one from the top of the arc to the bottom corner, the other from the bottom corner to the box.

The Lakers' defensive formation was pulled away in an instant, and Larry Hughes broke through! The first block, the huge Eric Dampier blocked Kobe Bryant solidly, and Shaquille O'Neal behind Dampier hurriedly retreated, ready to make up for the defense!

But then Antoine Jamison came over again, and the second blocking and dismantling of the two immediately made the Lakers panic, and under Jamison's high-quality blocking and dismantling, they could only choose to focus on defending one, if it was to prevent Larry Hughes, Jamison would form a misplaced single here, with Jamison's shooting and height, this goal is likely to go in.

If you focus on defending Antoine Jamison, Larry Hughes will be completely empty in front of him!

The panicked Lakers were completely in chaos, and Larry Hughes rushed straight in, and a fierce slam dunk opened the Warriors flag to victory!

"Beautiful offensive coordination! Larry Hughes' dunk ended the offense, and the Warriors scored two points first! ”

"Doon, maybe you have to admit that half of the credit for that shot just now goes to Richard Cohan, before Richard Cohan became the head coach of the Warriors, did you see the Warriors play such an offensive combination?" The old coach Hubie Brown said that Dune Coswell was silent, and Doon Coswell couldn't help but start thinking, why did he look down on Richard?

Thinking about it, Doon Coswell felt that he might still be preconceived.

"Coach Richard Cohan brought a really beautiful offensive coordination, maybe I was preconceived." Doon Cossville blushed a little. "But it's hard to say, all I can say is that Richard Kohan is a coach with ideas." He still has some stubbornness.

While the two were talking, the Lakers' offense was over, and just as Doon Coswell finished speaking, Kobe Bryant returned a ball, and his throw after rushing inside scored two points for the Lakers.

Richard sighed off the field, the OK combination is too strong, O is a superstar, K is also a superstar, such a combination is destined to be difficult to defend.

It's the Warriors' offense again, this time it's Bob Sula who has the ball, and the Warriors played their small-ball whirlwind tactics, in the small-ball whirlwind tactics, Larry Hughes was originally out of place, but Frank Vogel's arrival gave Larry Hughes a position, that is, to attract the opponent's defensive attention by counter-running when everyone was in an offensive position.

This is the first time that the Warriors have used a small-ball whirlwind tactic after the revision, and Larry Hughes's counterrun did play a role, his counterrun towards the restricted area instantly attracted Kobe Bryant's follow-up defense and O'Neal's retreat, and O'Neal, who needed to protect the penalty area, had to drop Eric Dampier and retreat to the vicinity of the penalty area.

In this way, the Lakers leaked, after the first wave of blocking and dismantling, the Warriors got the opportunity Bob Sula's jump shot has always been unstable, this time he chose to block and dribble a few steps inside, attracted the attention of the defense and then distributed the ball to Kenny Thomas in the bottom corner, Kenny Thomas shot a two-point shot that stepped on the line and hit it directly!
