January 27, 8 p.m. local time in Detroit, Auburn Hills Palace Arena.

Darvin Ham, the Lakers' chief assistant coach, was standing next to Dukang at a loss.

The expression looked as embarrassing as it was, and his eyes were secretly looking at Du Kang.

Well, it seems that the smile on Du Kang's face is quite pink, and Darwin Ham said weakly to Du Kang: "Du, you believe me, I never wanted to be the head coach of the Lakers!" ”

"Darwin, you can't say that, but you're a very good man."

Du Kang looked at the surging Pistons fans around him, put his eyes on Hamm, looked at Hamm seriously and continued: "Maybe they are right, you may really be better than me." ”

"Huh?!"

Darwin Hamm was stunned.

Looking at the smiling young man in front of him, Hamm was about to cry.

Pistons fans pit me!

At this time, the Pistons fans at Auburn Hills Palace were still shouting.

BeatL.A！ Such a slogan will certainly not make the Lakers' new chief assistant coach feel deeply cheated by Pistons fans.

What really made Hammuel tremble was the pile of slogans held up by Pistons fans on the sidelines.

"Rookie, Darwin is better suited to be the head coach of the Lakers than you!"

"Rookie, hand over the Lakers to Ham and go back to China!"

"Rookie, you don't deserve to coach the NBA!"

……

……

The stands were littered with similar signs held up by Pistons fans.

Even the live piston DJs were joking.

"If we can get this rookie out of class, then Darwin could be the head coach of the Lakers, so let's send Erwin to be the head coach of the Lakers!"

"Wow~Darwin! Darwin! Darwin! ”

The Pistons fans at the scene were frantically responding to the shouts of the Pistons home DJ.

It can only be said that if things really unfold like this, Darvin Ham may really become the head coach of the Lakers.

The Lakers originally had five assistant coaches, Don Antoni and his brother were fired, and Du Kang was promoted to head coach.

Eddie Jordan, who was the former first assistant coach of the Lakers by Du Kang, lost the opportunity to coach an NBA team, and finally left the Lakers in disheart and went to Gross University of New Jersey as an assistant coach.

Therefore, the current Lakers are left with two assistant coaches, Darvin Ham and Clifford.

Not even the NBA's official minimum of three assistant coaches has been met.

Of course, this rule of the NBA can't be very good, and many teams don't seriously abide by it.

For example, the Lakers' opponent tonight is the Pistons.

The Pistons are actually two assistant coaches now.

In short, in the current situation, if Du Kang is suddenly fired, then the only person who can act as the head coach of the Lakers is Darvin Ham.

"Du, you have to believe me, I have absolutely no second heart for you, I didn't take refuge in Jeanie Buss!"

"Did I mention you went to Jenny Buss, why are you so nervous? Darwin, you won't, really ......"

Du Kang's expression suddenly became serious, it really made Darwin Ham cry.

Now that Du and Jim are in such a dangerous situation, they are all soldiers, they don't know friend or foe, and they should be suspicious.

Even if it were him, he would be so sensitive and cautious, suspicious of his colleagues, and even of his players.

However, he is really loyal to Du Kang!

Even if you have two hearts, it's too late to take refuge in Jeanie Buss!

"Du, I really didn't betray!"

"Darwin, I was joking."

Du Kang saw that Hamm couldn't stand it anymore, and quickly smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"But, Darwin, do you think there will be a lot of people on our team who want me to go out?"

Darwin Ham was silent.

Du Kang's question is very dark and very heart-wrenching.

Don't look young as your own head coach, but it's really pink and black.

How did he answer that?

He said that he was loyal and did not want Du Kang to leave class, and Clifford was Howard's confidant, so naturally he could not want Du Kang to leave class.

So the people Du Kang said asked him to leave class are naturally the only players left in the Lakers.

It is unlikely that the management will be directly involved in this high-profile game.

So the question is, can he say that there are internal ghosts among the players?

If he really wants to say that, he won't be mixed with the Lakers in the future!

Not to mention the acting head coach, without Du Kang's protection, the chief assistant coach may not be able to keep it.

At that time, he will be completely reduced to a person who relies on Du Kang to survive, and as long as he is in the Lakers, it will no longer be possible to have two hearts.

However, looking at the very serious look on Du Kang's face at this time, listening to the remarks of Pistons fans and DJs at this time in support of his position.

Darwin Hamm had a heart set and made a decision.

"Du, I think ......"

However, before Darwin Hamm could finish speaking, Dukang blocked his mouth with the tactical board in his hand.

Du Kang looked at the surprised Hamm and comforted: "Darwin, don't blame me for not believing you, now, I am not burdened with my own fate, how dare I trust anyone with motives at will." ”

After Du Kang finished speaking, he smiled again, looked at Hamm and continued: "But to Darwin, I am sure, you cannot betray me. ”

Hamm, who was already desperate, heard Du Kang say this, and he was really moved to cry when he was full of emotions.

Put yourself in such a situation, he himself estimated that no one would really believe it.

In the end, Du Kang chose to trust him completely.

Looking at Darwin Hamm, who was moved at this time, looking like he was going to die for Dukang, Clifford behind the two was dumbfounded.

What he saw was not moving, what he saw was horror!

This 23-year-old young man, the way he just beat Darwin Hamm is simply amazing!

Du Kang said: No one dares to believe it now, so I trust you unconditionally.

This is an allusion to Hamm's special status.

Dukang said he was sure Hamm would not betray him.

How can you be sure?

Of course: everything you have is under my control, so I can be sure that you have not betrayed!

Du Kang is a combination of grace and power, planting a seed in Hamm's soul that he will not dare to betray.

Tell Hamm that you have a special place in my heart, so there is an eye that is always on you.

After such a beating from him, even if Jeanie Bass really wanted to rebel against Hamm in the future, Hamm would not dare to betray.

The boss's secretary.

The head coach's henchman.

are very critical players.

These characters require absolute loyalty.

Ducom and Hamm are not brothers like the D'Antoni brothers.

Nor is it Mike Brown and Hamm's mentor-apprentice relationship.

Their previous relationship was that of friends of the same hierarchy.

In such a relationship, trust is actually very fragile.

Why can you be a manager and I can't?

Such relationships are the easiest to betray.

Dukang promoted Ham to head assistant coach, and I'm afraid he was waiting for an opportunity to knock Ham on the go.

Pistons fans are now just giving him a chance to knock Ham.

Thinking of this, Clifford also showed concern on his face.

"Dwight wants to use him, I'm afraid it's not that easy......"

Soon, though, Clifford breathed a sigh of relief and an expectant look on his face.

"Only someone with such strong means would dare to move Kobe Bryant and purge Kobe Bryant in the Lakers, right?"

The position of the Dwight Lakers is hopeful!

Be sure to remind Dwight not to make small moves in front of him, and before killing Kobe, you must listen to him!

"Well, there is a chance to ask Yao Ming to come over and ask him to help Dwight and Du deepen their relationship!"

Clifford was already thinking about tying Howard and Dukang together.

He spent four years as an assistant coach in Houston before becoming Howard's henchman, accompanying Yao Ming all the way from rookie to superstar.

He was Van Gundy Jr.'s apprentice.

It is this achievement that will be valued by the Magic, who will be dug to help develop Howard.

He and Howard were mentors and friends.

He and Yao Ming are actually teachers and friends.

Over the past 10 years, he has produced two of the best centers in the NBA in the last 10 years.

Today's game between the Pistons and the Lakers at home, Pistons fans are very excited.

Both the Pistons and Lakers have an 18-25 record, with the Lakers in 13th in the West and the Pistons in ninth in the East.

Both teams will be hoping to increase their chances of making the playoffs with a win in this game.

At 8:15 p.m., the game officially began.

Howard and Greg Monroe jumped in the middle circle, and the excited Howard easily defeated Monroe, giving the Lakers the first chance to attack the game.

In this game, the Lakers' starters are Howard, Gasol, Artest, Kobe Bryant and Blake.

Yi Jianlian sat by the water dispenser in a suit.

Yi Jianlian has been playing in the CBA before, and the game is in good shape, but Du Kang feels that now is not the best time for Yi Jianlian to play.

Du Kang felt that although he had pulled out Yi Jianlian's mid-pitch attributes, Yi Jianlian still lacked too many things.

In addition to the attributes, skills, and personality problems.

Then there's the question of faith.

Du Kang felt that Yi Jianlian needed a very good game to open up his own confidence, and also open up the confidence of others in him.

Therefore, before the right opportunity arises, Yi Jianlian only needs to wear a suit and be responsible for playing on the team's bench.

By the way, Nash didn't start this game either.

Du Kang's adjustment made the Lakers' rotation players excited.

Especially Steve Blake, who started this game, felt he had misunderstood Dukang.

"The coach is not a head coach who relies only on stars, and he finally found out that I was a better starter for the Lakers than Nash!"

I'm better defensively than Nash, I'm good on the ball, I can shoot the basketball, and when it comes to playmaking passes, we all have Kobe, so why do we have to play guards?

A dribbling guard with defense and shooting is the most suitable for the Lakers and Kobe!

"If this game is won, the players' satisfaction is not 100%, I must catch a few ghosts!"

Dukang looked at Blake, who was stumbling and dribbling past half the court under Starkey's defense, and thought viciously.

The Lakers started this game not Nash, it was Blake.

In order to earn more MP, he racked his brains.

And this also made the Lakers come up in the first quarter of this game, and the offense was messed up.

Aside from Kobe's hitting, the Lakers' offense didn't have any bright spots.

The situation is so passive, the Lakers have a tendency to collapse as soon as they come up.

Hamm, who had just been beaten by Du Kang, couldn't sit still, and wanted to show his loyalty to Du Kang in front of him that he wanted the team to win, constantly shouting on the sidelines.

As the head coach of the Lakers, Du Kang is still sitting there calmly at this time.

Nash sat next to Du Kang with the same relaxed expression.

Pistons head coach Frank, who is also standing on the sidelines, has actually been looking at Du Kang.

Seeing the ease on Du Kang's face, Frank looked disdainful.

That's why he doesn't look down on Du Kang and the Lakers.

This Laker has not been integrated yet!

The stars are fighting separately, the coach and the stars are not in harmony, such a team, it is luck to win one game, and it is impossible to win all the time.

"I think the reason why Coach D put Nash on the bench in this game is to appease Kobe."

"In the last game, it can be said that Nash was the biggest contributor to the Lakers, although Kobe Bryant scored the most but the shooting rate was too low, if Nash played the court in the last game, he was bound to control the ball, and when the time came, Kobe Bryant would play very uncomfortable."

"This is also true, in the last game, Kobe Bryant was very dissatisfied with his performance, this game must prove himself, the Pistons know it, Coach D can't not know, even if his goal is to finally clean up Kobe, it is impossible to really give Kobe Bryant no face at all, after all, Kobe is one of the greatest legends of the Lakers."

"That's what makes it difficult for the Lakers to be a team, there are a lot of stars, but they don't fit in, and you can't help but think about the feelings of these stars."

This game between the Lakers and the Pistons is also broadcast live in the United States.

Barkley and Kenny Smith's casual chatter made Lakers fans in front of the TV worried.

At this time, on the court, the scores of the two teams made Lakers fans even more cool.

Kobe Bryant made 3 of 9 shots as soon as he came up, and he shot a lot, but the state was the same as the last game, he was too anxious, he wanted to prove himself too much, and the Pistons players stared at him defensively, plus he didn't feel good.

It's like taking the Lakers away in a wave.

What's more, the Pistons are really not Jazz.

The Jazz's two interior linemen, Al Jefferson and Millsap, are not tall enough to rob Howard and Gasol.

But the Pistons' two interior lines are different, Monroe and Drummond, and the backcourt protection is really good.

Pistons head coach Frank is also very good at using power forward Villanueva to play small forward, three inside!

This is bullying the Lakers for not being athletic from the outside.

Kobe Bryant threw the ball, and Howard and Gasol couldn't grab it at all in the face of such a Pistons inside.

Therefore, in the sound of Kobe Bryant's clanging iron, the Lakers collapsed as soon as they came up in the first quarter.

"Hahaha, the rookie coach's Kobe shot, Howard Gasol's tactics of grabbing are not working, Kenny, I heard that this rookie doesn't know any other tactics and systems, so he will shoot Kobe Bryant with this hand, and Howard Gasol will rob."

At the beginning of the game, the Lakers had not collapsed, and they kept saying Coach D, Coach D.

The collapse of the Lakers is directly called by rookies and rookies.

Barkley showed everyone what it means to be real.

And such a real Buckley made Jenny Buss in front of the TV very satisfied.

"Jenny, this rookie, really can't do it!"

The assistant next to him was excited, and Jenny Bass smiled gracefully.

"His first game of coaching was amazing, but I've never heard of a coach in the NBA who doesn't know how to play and can succeed."

This is what her boyfriend, now husband Phil Jackson, said to her.

This is her confidence!

She believes in the vision of an 11-time head coach!

Now, it's in its original form!

"Jim, Jim, like, if the Lakers lose this game......"

On the other side, Jim Bass's assistants were already watching TV and were about to cry.

The Pistons are already one of the weakest opponents in the East five-game losing streak.

And the first one to play, the Lakers veterans are also the most physically energetic.

But as it turned out, it was like this.

Even if it's only a little more than a quarter now, the Lakers have collapsed!

"Calm down, it's not over yet."

With that said, Jim Bass's hands were nervously clenched into fists.

"Haha, if the rookie coach really has the ability to predict the state of the players as he blew in the last game, I don't think he will let Nash who performed well in the last game come off the bench and let Kobe Bryant attack."

"Charles, I think you're like a clown right now!"

Although the head coach of that Lakers team is indeed a parallel commodity.

However, there is no need to fall into such a well, right?

After all, he was still a 23-year-old.

Hahahaha......

However, I have to say that Jim Buss, the owner of the Lakers, actually turned a 23-year-old kid who only coached one game into a regular, which may really be the biggest laughing stock in NBA history.

"It's over, it's over, this game is completely over......"

After the game began, the Lakers assistant coach Darvin Ham, who had been jumping up and down excitedly on the sidelines, directly squatted on the ground with weak legs and dull eyes.

Is he really going to passively be the acting head coach of the Lakers and passively betray Du?

Actually, I don't blame Hamm for that.

Because the game played 10 minutes, the Lakers have fallen behind by 15 points.

Among them, Kobe Bryant, the backbone of the Lakers' offense, made 4 of 13 shots in front.

Kobe Bryant was not in good shape, and the Lakers' speed was not good, and he couldn't break the defense of the Pistons, Monroe and Drummond's two-center tactics.

These 15 points are simply impossible to catch up.

In this game, the Lakers are decided!

Back from the east, Du is definitely out of class!

He hasn't had time to join Aunt Jenny yet, and he will definitely be acting for a game or two, and he will have to follow Du and Jim out of the Lakers.

My Du, my position as the chief assistant coach, I have been working hard for 20 years!

Ham thought about it, and actually broke down and cried like he did when the Pistons won the championship.

It's miserable!

It's been a terrible up-and-down!

He was a mere role player back then, and the Pistons cried the most when they won the championship, and Billups and Hamilton couldn't cry without two Wallaces.

This role player loves the Pistons so much, you stars, you can't be bad!

Hamilton, they wanted to kick Hamm to death.

Still, for Pistons fans, they still love Ham.

"Hahaha, what a lovely picture, our Hammer, tears broke down again, every time our lovely Hammer collapsed, it was a good day for the Pistons, thanks to the Lakers' rookie head coach, it was he who let us review the sweet 2004, hahahaha, 2004, also the Lakers!"

Seeing that the tear ducts were too developed and the emotions were too full of emotions, Hamm suddenly collapsed, and the DJ and fans of the Pistons on the scene were crazy.

are gloating about the teasing of Du Kang and the Lakers.

At this time, the Lakers fans in front of the TV didn't think Ham was cute, it was simply ugly!

"Our Lakers' chief assistant coach, such a good thing?!"

"Who signed him!"

"It's that rookie!"

"Who signed that rookie!"

"It's Jim Bass!"

"Jim Bass, rookie, clown, all fuck off!"

At the pace of some well-intentioned people, Lakers fans are mad on Twitter and other basketball forums on the American side at this time.

In the first game of the Eastern Five-Row, playing the Pistons, in the sad place of Auburn Hills Palace, it collapsed in the first quarter?

Lakers fans have completely broken the defense!

In fact, in Auburn Hills, there was one person who also broke the defense.

That's Kobe Bryant.

The live DJ took the Pistons fans to laugh at Du Kang frantically, reminiscing about 2004, which was definitely a mistake to hurt Kobe.

Kobe Bryant was in a hurry to prove himself, his mentality was a little anxious, his hand was not good, the team collapsed again, a bunch of negative emotions, and now he was mentioned again about the sad incident in 2004......

Bang!

Bryant admits that he did elbow it.

But he definitely didn't mean to!

He just rushed to his head with all the negative emotions these days, and he didn't control himself.

Moreover, if someone else really wants to hurt people, he won't elbow people's stomachs!

He can't do such a shameful thing to deliberately elbow people's stomachs!

But......

Watching Villanueva roll around on the ground in pain while clutching his stomach, Bryant sighed and closed his eyes.

He was fooled.

Beep beep!

For a second-degree malicious foul, the bald Crawford made a direct eviction.

"God, in such a desperate moment, Kobe Bryant was expelled!"

"I guess Kobe Bryant must have done it on purpose, he was going to kill this rookie like he did Mike Brown!"

Barkley went crazy with excitement.

And Aunt Jenny, who was in front of the TV, was already jumping excitedly.

As for Jim Silk......

"Calm, calm, calm, the game is not over......"

At this time, Jim Shu was not only shaking his hands, but his lips were blue.

And the assistant next to him was already slumped on the sofa.

"It's over, it's over, it's all over......"

……

……

Auburn Hills Palace.

Kobe Bryant bit his jersey and passed past Dukang, without hugging Dukang who was outstretching his arms, and walked straight to the players' tunnel.

However, when he was about to enter the player's tunnel, Bryant stopped.

"I didn't mean to, I didn't want you to leave."

After Kobe Bryant finished speaking, he was ready to burrow into the player's tunnel without looking back.

It's a pity that I didn't prove myself in front of him......

But at this moment......

"I'm not leaving, I'm not going to leave the Lakers until I see your sixth championship."

What?!

My sixth overall win?

Isn't he going to me?

Moreover, you are like this, how can you take me to a sixth championship?

Kobe, who originally wanted to get into the player's tunnel, suddenly turned around and looked at Du Kang in shock.

Dukang smiled and turned back to the Lakers bench.

"Steve, let's play."

"Yes, Coach!"

looked at Du Kang and Nash who were hugging, and looked at the fighting spirit and determination on Nash's face at this time......

Bryant's heart was beating wildly.

"Bryant, do you believe in miracles?"

"You are a miracle, and so am I!"
