Chapter 95: The Power of Gold-Level Rewards!
In the Lakers' away game against the Mavericks, the matchup between Yi Jianlian and the driver in the game caused a great shock in the entire NBA.
This season, the UAE has had a 40-point performance in a single game, and the last game against the Thunder also had a 30+ performance.
But these performances are all points scored by the UAE as a supporting role. Just like in the NBA, there will always be role players who run out from time to time to get 40 or 50 points, these players feel like this game, and the opponent's defense is not paid enough attention to, so they can cut high scores.
It's not that if you cut 40+, 50+ in the NBA, that's a star player. The key to identifying a star player is to look at the game.
In the game, we need to see if this player has the ability to hold the ball, dominate the ball, digest the ball, and shoot the right, and whether he can afford the offensive responsibility of a team.
In this game with the Mavericks, Yi Jianlian performed very perfectly. In this game with the Mavericks, Yi Jianlian showed his offensive weapons and physical talent to the fullest.
As a result, many Bucks fans, Nets fans, Wizards fans and Mavericks fans on the Internet broke their defenses.
"I absolutely like Yi Jianlian's on-court performance, I think he still has a lot of upside, he plays the ball fearlessly, and at the same time he is a good rebounder. If he is allowed to play inside, he can do it. Such a big man who can stretch the opposition defense on the pitch is invaluable and is a player that the team must consider keeping. Mr. John Hudmon, all your evaluations of Yi have now come true, under Coach D, he has been exploited by Coach D to all his potential, now that you see the future of Yi, why not keep him and focus on training? Why send him to the Nets? "This is a Bucks fan.
"If Kiki was still in the Nets at the time, he would never send Yi away, Yi will definitely be able to grow up, after Prokhorov bought the Nets, Kiki was forced to leave, and in order to make room for Yi, he actually exchanged Yi for air, which is the most shameful transaction in the history of the Nets!"
"I hate Prokhorov, I hate it very much, this Russian doesn't know anything about basketball!" This is a Nets fan.
Fans of the Wizards and Mavericks were also very defending, but at that time, the UAE was already three-handed and four-handed. Anyone who knows the NBA knows that young players who have been abandoned by two teams in a row are basically impossible to get development resources.
So although the Wizards and Mavericks fans broke the defense, they could also understand the team's operation. And the Bucks and Nets fans, that's really angry.
In the face of angry Bucks fans, the general manager of the Bucks, John Hardmond, was blindsided. There really is a feeling that the pot is coming from heaven.
"John, do you really want to respond?" John Hadmon, who was scouting young Greek player Antetokounmpo, sighed.
After being smashed by the pot, John Hardmond actually regretted it. Yi Jianlian was the player he was more optimistic about back then.
Otherwise, he would not have taken a fancy to Yi Jianlian after missing Al Horford. However, at that time, the Bucks were in dire need of results and needed immediate strength.
At that time, the Bucks had two players with good potential at the power forward position, Villanueva and Yi Jianlian.
Coupled with the fact that the Nets named the United Arab Emirates at that time, he actually had no choice at that time. In order to combat Richard Jefferson, he can only send Yi Jianlian.
After all, Richard Jefferson is a star player who has proven himself in the playoffs in his playing years.
A young rookie in exchange for a 28-year-old star player who averaged 20+ per game in the playoffs and played in the Finals.
Although the trade proved to be a failure, the arrival of Richard Jefferson did not allow the Bucks to score either.
That's why Bucks fans are so angry. For the sake of a failed trade, a potential rookie who could truly be Nowitzki was lost.
If he had to do it again, he would have made this choice under the circumstances.
"Forget it, let them scold, our operation in the Bucks has been too unsuccessful over the years."
"Then, this time, will it succeed?" John Hardmond was silent this time.
"It will work!" Looking at the thin young player like a bamboo pole, Hudmund said firmly.
"This time, I won't give up halfway!" Yi's tragedy must not be repeated again because of quick success!
In the face of the anger of Bucks fans, Hudmon did not come out to respond, and scolded casually. And the general manager of the Nets back then, and now the vice president of the league, Chicki Vanderwich, came out to respond to him.
Nets fans know what happened back then, and it has nothing to do with Van Devic, it should be said that under Van de Veic, the UAE has been reused, playing the best season of his previous career.
If it weren't for the Russian boss who bought the Nets, maybe Yi Jianlian would have played in the Nets.
"I am very happy to see YI grow up again in the Los Angeles Lakers, which not only proves that international players can continue to succeed in the NBA, but also proves that international coaches can achieve higher achievements in the NBA, Coach D is a great coach, he made me see that YI can reach higher heights, in this matter of YI, maybe many people have made mistakes, but the fans should put aside all their unwillingness at this time, applaud YI to stand up again in the midst of setbacks, and also cheer for Coach D's greatness, They let us witness an inspirational legend in the NBA. Kicki van der Wych said it quite in a pattern.
In fact, there is no need for Vanderwich to say, at this time, public opinion in the United States is frantically praising Du Kang's ability to cultivate players.
Yi Jianlian, a former potential monster, once again redeemed his potential under Coach D. Iverson, Maddy, Kobe, these veterans, under Coach D, can still improve and move up.
This one is really amazing. Therefore, for a while, the entire NBA players, coaches, trainers and other professionals were frantically discussing this matter.
On Twitter, on various basketball forums, all kinds of professionals are analyzing why Coach D is so strong in developing players.
In the end, everyone came to an almost unanimous conclusion.
"Trust, Coach D's 100% trust in his players!"
"It's easy to say, but it's very difficult to do, can you be like Coach D, in order to trust Yi 100%, and take turns off Kobe, Maddie and Carter when facing the Mavericks? This is a crucial 20-game winning streak! ”
"Can you use that way to break the world's prejudice against striking iron for the sake of Kobe's illusory progress, and to be the enemy of Kobe Bryant and the world's public opinion in that way?"
"Those who learn D live, those who are like D die, we can learn from D coach, but never try to be like D coach and do exactly the same thing as D coach!" To put it simply, only Coach D in this world can do such a magical thing.
Others can learn, but they can't. The game between the Lakers and the Mavericks has greatly boosted Du Kang's reputation among the players.
Especially among the young players. Before, Du Kang liked to use four-nine mature men in the Lakers, which gave Du Kang the impression of being the kind of head coach who was a little too much.
A normal head coach, where would be so many veterans in the team. In the NBA, there are no such success stories.
Even Popovich, who likes to use mature men the most, the Spurs players are not familiar with them right away, Duncan, Parker and Ginobili have all become mature men from being used by Zhengtai.
So, Popovich still likes Zhengtai. In short, thanks to the traffic brought by the four major defenders, the duel between Yi Jianlian and Nowitzki is well-known to audiences across the United States.
It also made the growth of the UAE in the Lakers well-known by the whole league. In the previous UAE games with the Lakers, under the halo of superstar players such as Kobe, Nash, and Howard, he was just a role player.
Now it's different, taking on the Lakers' offense and beating Nowitzki head-on. This is a proper star-level player!
If the value shown by the previous UAE is at the 800 annual salary level, then the value shown in this game is at the top salary level.
Well, why is the gap so big? Why didn't the UAE show the strength of the top salary level around those stars?
Why did Du Kang take Kobe Bryant and Carter, Maddie and others so that the UAE could fully play? This is mainly related to the UAE itself.
It's not Kobe Bryant and Maddy or Carter who are suppressing the UAE. The UAE's ball quotient is too low. Tactics don't run.
I can't play with my teammates. Playing blocking and dismantling with Nash is already the only cooperation that the UAE can handle.
Even if he played blocking and dismantling with Nash, the UAE felt that the whole person was confused, and sometimes the effect was not good, either it couldn't stop people, or the UAE was running in the wrong direction.
If it weren't for Du Kang's forcible promotion of the offensive attributes of the UAE, his blocking and dismantling cooperation with Nash would not have been successful.
The UAE's offensive ability to block and pick and roll has an A+, but the power he and Nash show is actually only A-.
It takes constant simulation to bring out the strength of A-level or A+-level. To play an aging Garnett, you need to simulate three games to be able to kill Garnett, and the other two games are killed by Garnett, which should not be.
If the UAE is still the player who only has A- or even B+ offensive ability in blocking and pick-and-roll, he and Nash may only play B, or even B-.
In a championship-winning team like the Lakers, any offensive tactics that are less powerful than A- are not allowed.
Therefore, if it weren't for the UAE's blocking and demolition offense to A+, Du Kang would not have dared to let the UAE play at all.
Nowitzki is a template for the UAE. Nowitzki's tactical literacy, the ability to block, cover, pass, cooperate, and pass for his teammates on the field, the UAE can't even see the tail lights.
Nowitzki is the perfect combination of his individual ability and the strength of the team. The same goes for Duncan.
So Duncan and Nowitzki's team, at their peak, has always had a very good record, which is why Nowitzki was able to perform a miracle in 2011.
Did Nowitzki shoot well from the field in 2011? It's not that high, but his offensive threat is high, and he completely transforms his offensive threat into the team's power, which is great.
After all, Nowitzki was taught by the old Nelson, and the UAE does not have this condition. Du Kang has been thinking about how to improve the ball quotient and tactical literacy of the United Arab Emirates.
But the UAE is not young now, and besides, his own tactical literacy is not so high, even if it is the old Nelson, it is not possible to cultivate the tactical literacy of the UAE in a year or two.
Therefore, playing with each other, the UAE gives people the feeling that he is a high-quality role player with strong individual ability.
Only by being the core of a star like a Maverick can he exert his full strength. This must be a waste of the UAE's might.
"It's a pity." It's a real pity. The UAE will play in China when he is young, and Hongyuan is already the best team in China, but the coach's technical and tactical level is still not high.
came to the NBA, he couldn't understand tactics in the first place, he has been on the move, and his own personality is not lively enough.
In addition, the head coaches who follow are mostly young and ordinary head coaches like Frank, and I have not met a master head coach like Nelson Sr.
Even if the UAE trains hard, it is useless. So Du Kang has always had a real headache before.
He doesn't have much MP this season, and the number one thing he does to save MP is unlocking Wheat's seal and restoring Carter's knee.
This season, whether the seal of the wheat can be broken, whether Carter's knee can be restored, Du Kang is also uncertain.
Therefore, as one of the youngest players in the team, Yi Jianlian's role is very important. Du Kang certainly didn't want the UAE to just beat the side drum.
Du Kang must be hoping that the UAE can work with Nash, Kobe, Howard, and Iverson.
In this way, the Lakers can have more security in the playoffs. It can't be Kobe Bryant in the half, Allen in one quarter, and Yi Jianlian in another.
As for the playing style of the board stream, it is easy to play against young teams like Ibaka and Thunder, but is it still useful against Duncan and Spurs?
Therefore, it is necessary to give full play to all the strength of the thighs, and hugging the thighs is the most secure. If you want to give full play to the full strength of the UAE and Nash, you need to improve the ball quotient and tactical literacy of the UAE.
He led the Lakers to four consecutive road games, and after coaching the Lakers, he led the team to a 20-game winning streak.
The Lakers, who led the 13th in the West with 17 wins and 25 losses, jumped to sixth in the West with 37 wins and 25 losses after 20 consecutive wins.
When Dukang returned to Los Angeles with the Lakers from Dallas, he received the warmest welcome. Not only Jim Shu, but even Aunt Jenny went to the airport to welcome Du Kang and the Lakers back.
Aunt Jenny is hoping that Du Kang will fail to win the championship this season. However, Aunt Jenny doesn't want Du Kang to get out of here now.
From the very beginning, I wanted to own Du Kang. After that, I want Du Kang and Jim Shu to get out. Now I want to have Du Kang again.
Aunt Jenny's mentality towards Du Kang has been changing. Well, I can only say, women, they are so fickle.
"Coach D, all I can say about Phil is sorry, I didn't know about his columns on ESPN and the Los Angeles Times." As a female Aquaman, it's hard to determine what Aunt Jenny's feelings for Phil Jackson are like.
Anyone who knows Aunt Jenny knows that she is a woman who has even played with a male god like Rodman, well, Rodman is really that kind of popular male god in the United States.
If you change to the harem at a certain point, Rodman is the kind of middle and second sister-type royal 'sister' with a hot personality, and 'her' ex-husband is still the premier 'male' god like Madonna, and this kind of character was very popular at a certain point 10 years ago.
Such a dazzling male god Rodman, Aunt Jenny just got tired of playing for a short time.
It's as if you've collected the illustrated book, and you're good to go. But for Phil...... If Fei'er corresponds to a certain point, it is to be in charge of a wealthy family, although she is older, but she is still a very beautiful super 'noble lady', this person was very popular at a certain point 07 years ago, what an agent, what a son, etc.
Aunt Jenny, as a wandering grass and unscrupulous sea king, Aunt Jenny must have love for a 'noble lady' like Fei'er, but with Jenny's character, she may have been tired of loving Fei'er for a long time.
Now it's more about the union of interests. This is the kind of union that first fell in love. Before the old Bass died, the two got married in January 2013, and they were also united.
Now that Phil has suffered such a setback, the Lakers have completely lost the value of the union, and Aunt Jenny chose to jump and cut, which is actually in line with her personality.
Du Kang even secretly poked his guess in his heart. Maybe it won't be long before Aunt Jenny and Phil Jackson divorce.
So, poor Phil, not only was she prostituted by Jerebus for nothing, but she was also prostituted by Aunt Jenny for so many years?
It's a pity for Fei'er to think about it. It can only be said that Mr. Jeribas is really powerful. His advantages were passed on to Aunt Jenny and Jim Shu respectively, and Aunt Jenny and Ji Shu inherited all of them except for Aquaman, and only half of the other advantages were inherited.
Aunt Jenny inherited ingenuity and unscrupulous means. And Jim Shu ...... Well, let's not talk about Jim Shu, it's too much to be rude to Jim Shu, and it looks like Jim Shu is not smart.
Looking at the eyes of Aunt Jenny looking at her at this time. Du Kang is now very skeptical, in the eyes of Aunt Jenny, is he the kind of little Lori who is beautiful, has a blue heart, and is top intelligent?
Isn't Aunt Jenny never collecting a picture book like his? Well, just kidding.
He didn't have any interest in Aunt Jenny.
"Jenny, Jim called me over, and I was out of company." After declining a bunch of invitations from Aunt Jenny, Du Kang came to Jim Shu's side.
Compared with Aunt Jenny, who is full of aggression, she is much more at ease by Jim Shu's side. Du Kang is by Aunt Jenny's side, and he is really described as Rumang's back.
"Du, I can't help you with the game, you can handle the internal affairs of the team by yourself, and as for the external affairs, I will not let those people affect you and your team."
"Thank you." Sure enough, it's still Jim Shu Huang who is reassuring. Moreover, Aunt Jenny is on the throne, and at the head of him, the godfather of the Lakers, I am afraid that there will be a emperor named Kurt Rambis.
In short, during the away week, Du Kang was away from home, and it was rare to be quiet. As soon as he returned to Los Angeles, he and the Lakers players had to face Aunt Jenny's successive interferences.
Not to mention him, like the Mavericks, who became the protagonist of the team for the first time, the United Arab Emirates was also invited by Aunt Jenny to his home as a guest.
As the vice president of the team, it is an honor to invite the players to your home. But......
"Jenny, these guys are so ignorant!"
"It's all reversed! Do you really think that Coach D can take them to the championship this season?! ”
"None of them will be left behind!" Linda Rambis, the Lakers' executive director of special projects, next to Aunt Jenny, had a look of anger on her face.
After Coach D became the head coach of the Lakers, the people on Aunt Jenny's side were too aggrieved, and there was a bunch of resentment in their hearts.
Just now they were lowly and asked those guys. Except for Howard, who stopped at Aunt Jenny and hesitated to refuse, the others almost avoided it.
Internally, there's a lot of power on their side. But within the Lakers, it has been made a monolith by that young D coach.
"Did Phil do that with the Lakers? It's a pity that such people are not used by me. ”
"......" Linda knew that Aunt Jenny's book-collecting addiction had been committed again. After such a long and hard road schedule, Du Kang directly gave the Lakers a day and a half off.
Everyone needs to rest now, and they need to go home to praise and vanity. Look at the hype they are being touted by the national media right now.
"Ah Lian, you take this." The United Arab Emirates, who was originally taken by Howard to Harpy, was directly stopped by Du Kang.
When Du Kang handed the cyan bracer in his hand to Ah Lian, Ah Lian was stunned.
"Coach, this, I, I have it too?!" Ah Lian looked at the cyan bracer in his hand, and there was a line of English writing on the bracer in golden text.
Translates to 'spirituality!' ’
"Coach, what about mine, what about mine?!" Before the UAE could recover from the surprise, Howard next to him really couldn't stand it.
Now that even his little brother Yi has it, when will he come! Du Kang didn't answer, just smiled slightly, and took out a green bracer from his pocket.
This time, Du Kang didn't put it on, but showed it to Howard in front of him, took it back, and put it in his pocket.
"Dwight, yours are ready." Du Kang patted the United Arab Emirates on the shoulder.
"You're having fun." With that, Du Kang turned around and left. Left behind the agitated UAE and the equally agitated Howard.
"Yi, I saw it!"
"What?"
"I saw the bracer that the coach had prepared for me, and it said 'honesty'!"
"......" honesty? The UAE was dumbfounded.
"Yi, don't you think I'm a loyal and honest person? Sure enough, only the coach in this world knows me best! ”
"......" loyal and honest? The UAE looked at the text on the bracer on his hand. Spirituality? The UAE seems to understand something.
To Nash, Kobe, Carter, Maddie, Iverson theirs. Humility, sacrifice, valor, piety, pride...... The text above is a compliment to them.
For young players like him and Howard. It's the expectation for the two of them. His basketball lacks spirituality, so the coach hopes that he can become more spiritual.
Howard lacks honesty, so hopefully Howard will be more honest in the future. Coach, it's really well-intentioned.
"Yi, let's go to Harpy now, I feel all over my body now!" ………… After Harpy came back with Howard, it was already early in the morning.
The aesthetic is a little strange. But if you accept that setting. It's still fun. Turn off the lights, it's all the same.
As long as your imagination is good enough, you can also think that it is a fairy sister. Back at the hotel, after washing up, the UAE fell asleep in a deep state.
In the dream, he felt that when he dreamed back to the 2007 draft tonight, he would definitely be drafted by the Warriors.
"Ding, do you want to understand the meaning of basketball?"
“……”
"Do you want to know what it means to be alive?"
“……”
"Do you want to be truly alive?"
"......" the UAE was a little dumbfounded. Of course, I want to live. Do you want to die? How wrong is tonight's dream!
As soon as the picture turned, it was indeed a draft meeting. But not the 2007 draft, but the 1999 draft!
"With the seventh pick in the second round, the Dallas Mavericks selected a player from China, Wang Zhizhi." The UAE raised his eyes.
Is Brother Wang at the scene? Did Brother Wang have a scene at the draft in '99? Then, he found that the spectators around the stands were all looking at him.
The UAE looked at his hands. Weak, not much muscle. Don't?
"I dreamed of becoming Brother Wang?!" …………
"Wang, you are amazing, however, I will not admit defeat, next season, I will be the team's starting power forward!" Looking at the young Nowitzki in front of him, Yi Jianlian was silent.
"Dirk, Wang, don't talk, the coach is going to talk about tactics." Nash secretly patted them on the back.
At this time, a handsome middle-aged Chinese guy walked into the training ground.
"Coach ......" saw this middle-aged version of Du Kang, and Yi Jianlian didn't know how to complain. In his dream, he became Brother Wang, came to Mavericks in 1999, he got all the memories of Brother Wang's basketball, and at the same time, he also lost his super talented body and became weak.
And his coach with the Lakers, Du Kang. became the head coach of the Mavericks in 1999. And it's a middle-aged version.
Am I dreaming? I think I'm really dreaming..................
"Ding, make sure to use Wang Zhizhi's player dream card, your player Yi Jianlian's ability will be adjusted to 88, and his potential will be adjusted to 94." After 8 hours.
"Ding, your player Yi Jianlian's ability has been adjusted to 89, please pay attention to check." ………… The next day.
The UAE opened his eyes. What a long dream, what a real dream. It's a pity. In the first season of his career, he reached the playoffs with Nowitzki and Nash, but fell in front of the OK Lakers in the first round.
Is that really a dream? Thinking about the tactics that the coach in the dream and himself, Nash, Nowitzki, they were talking about.
Thinking about myself and Nowitzki, Nash in my dreams, those collaborations. Everything was happening as if it were happening right in front of your eyes.
Is this really a dream? ………… On the afternoon of March 8, the Lakers' practice ground. Nash frowned.
"Yi, our tacit understanding, has it changed for the better?"
"Steve, you're ripe."
"......" Nash dumbfounded. …………
"Is this the power of a Gold reward?" A smile appeared on Du Kang's face. The thighs are really thicker!
………… Today's first update.
