Chapter 118: Coach D angrily reprimands the stars, and Steve sharpens his knives!

When he left the Chicago Bulls for the Los Angeles Clippers, De Nagro was ambitious.

In the first round of the 10 playoffs, he was eliminated 4-1 by the Cavaliers led by James, and De Nagro was forcefully fired by the Bulls management with the full support of Rose and others.

He swore that he would get ahead in the future and make the bull regret it.

Three years have passed.

originally thought that it was his harvest season, but he didn't expect that he and the team would be defeated by a rookie coach.

After the game between the Lakers and the Clippers.

Because Griffin and Paul applied to leave early, the other Clippers players didn't want to watch Coach D and the Lakers pretend to be here to bewitch, so they left early.

At the time of their departure, none of the Clippers players remembered their devastated head coach.

This is completely different from the affectionate goodbye of Rose when they left three years ago.

In the tunnel of the players.

De Nagro, reluctantly looking at this arena.

In this series with the Lakers, he had nothing to say.

There really isn't much to say.

At the end of G2, he was dumbfounded by Coach D, and after that he just struggled.

Struggling to the end, the crazy self buries itself.

With Griffin on the bench, the game not only did not win, but lost so ugly that his career with the Clippers was over, and even, his career as a head coach was over.

In the NBA, an ordinary head coach, if he offends the management and is loved by the stars, he is not worried about his work, so when he leaves the Bulls, he can immediately get an invitation from the Clippers.

The rebuilding Clippers need a head coach who can develop young stars.

And he.

For success.

This series offended all three of the Clippers' stars.

Am I wrong?

Shouldn't the players, the coaches sacrifice everything for the sake of victory?

Denagro's face was bitter.

"Monty, you're so strong, why can't you transform the Pelicans like Coach D? Why just be a babysitter?"

"In this world, not everyone is qualified to imitate Coach D."

This time, he fully understood what Monty Williams meant by this sentence.

"Perhaps, it's all over."

He came to his senses, but it was all over.

"Pooh, Mr. Sterling asked me to inform you that you have been fired."

"Thank you, Gary, I see."

Seeing the relieved smile on De Nagro's face, Gary Sachs, the general manager of the Clippers, was stunned for a moment.

I looked at Denagro's complexion, white.

Finally, Sachs kindly reminded him.

"Mr. Sterling still likes you, but Chris, Blake, and DeAndre...... I don't like you."

With that, Gary Sachs gave Denagro a self-contained look and left.

"Gary, how's Pooh?"

"Pooh accepted."

Donald Sterling's face was very ugly.

Gary Sachs's words to De Nagro just now were not Sachs lying to comfort De Nagro.

Raheem Sterling is really fond of De Nagro.

Such a young white head coach with a certain ability and a deep background, of course he likes it.

However, just now Paul actually threatened him with this summer's contract extension!

If the Clippers don't change a head coach, Paul will leave.

"Damn nigga!"

Sterling scolded straight out of his heart.

The average American must be frightened when they hear this.

But Gary Sachs was indifferent, apparently, not once or twice.

So, the saxophone didn't see it at all.

The Lakers and Clippers G4 game was played and posted in the post-game news

At the conference, Dukang learned the news of the Clippers' head coach De Nagro's fire.

This is not surprising.

The arrangement of a series offended the team's bosses, second and third, and it was intolerable for him not to leave.

But, wouldn't that be too efficient?

The average team management certainly doesn't have that kind of efficiency.

Only the stars are effective.

Moreover, it is the unanimous decision of the stars.

If one of the three Clippers stars disagrees, they won't be so effective.

Du Kang's face was not very good-looking.

After all, De Nagro, but the head coach who broke him down in the simulation and made him change the formation.

Although this series he has been riding in front of De Nagro constantly.

But he still respects the opponent who can beat him in the simulation.

Now, Du Kang truly realizes how cruel the NBA is to coaches.

If it weren't for the fact that he frantically added drama to himself and the Lakers in the regular season and gained the highest prestige, he would have done these things with the Lakers.

If the star wants to rebel, no one can protect him.

"Coach D, shouldn't you be happy right now, this will be part of Coach D's lore, won't it?"

When asked this question, Du Kang shook his head with a serious face.

"From a coach's point of view, I don't think Pooh should be fired, everything he makes is for the sake of winning, and he's the one the Clippers crave the most to win."

it!

Du Kang's answer made the Chinese reporters on the scene directly stupid.

They were about to listen to how Coach Xiao Du pretended to beep.

In fact, the American audience watching the live broadcast of the post-game press conference in front of the TV was a little silly.

Why is Coach D so merciful this time?

Didn't even jump on De Nagro's grave.

Shouldn't you beat the water dogs at this time?

Coach D, your remarks are dangerous in the NBA!

Therefore, after a short period of stunned, the reporters at the scene instantly became excited.

And the Chinese reporter who was dumbfounded just now was already trembling at this time.

Teacher Zhang couldn't wait to rush up and cover Du Kang's mouth now.

In the NBA, there are some things that you can't really say!

"Coach D, you said that the mistake of the Clippers being broken in the end was not the head coach's, so whose fault is that?"

Du Kang squinted at the impatient Boston reporter below.

"Of course it's the players."

it!

Teacher Zhang was desperate.

Coach Xiao Du finally said this.

"On my team, if Griffin is just a substitute and he loses his temper, he will be traded by me right away.

With 14 points and 4 fouls, what does he want to do?

Was Pooh wrong to put him on the bench? He scored nine points in 14 minutes of the game, the most points he scored in the series and his best.

He should learn from Barnes, even if he wants to lose his temper, it should be Matt Barnes who loses his temper, Barnes came off the bench in this game 11-of-14, 6-of-7 three-pointers, and scored a game-high 30 points.

it!

Fack!

For a while, the entire press conference was unusually quiet.

Coach D, this is too fierce!

Even the TNT Tiantuan, which is now broadcasting live in the studio, is stupid at this time.

In the NBA, there has never been a head coach who has dared to support a fellow DISS star by name, and it is a star of Griffin's level.

At most, it's just a bit of yin and yang.

After all, the NBA is the League of Stars.

The relationship between the star and the star is inextricably linked.

Let's just say Griffin, he's Goose City

background, he has a lot to do with Durant.

Of course, relatively speaking, Griffin's level is still incomparable to a supergiant like Durant.

But if you offend Griffin, it's likely that you're also offending Durant.

In the NBA, Durant's relationship is not the widest.

"I bet Coach D would only dare to lash out at Griffin, Chris Paul, he wouldn't dare move!"

O'Neill's excited words just fell.

Du Kang's voice came from the big screen again.

"And Chris Paul, do you think Pooh has a problem with his use? As the big man of the team, as the league's supergiant, the No. 1 point guard, he doesn't even know how to control the game now.

Is it hard to assist when the team needs an assist, to score when the team needs to score?

He said his idol was Iverson, and that's how Iverson taught him to play? You say he's a little assassin, that's how the smiling assassin plays?

Doesn't he have the ability?

No, he has this ability, but he won't use his own ability, and that's the most hateful part!

In my opinion, Pooh let him learn how to control the game like Chauncey, no problem at all!

The Clippers' most dangerous player in this series is Billups.

Chris Paul should be ashamed of that."

After Du Kang said coldly, O'Neill in the TNT studio was stupid.

Doesn't Coach D know how big a network Chris Paul has behind him?

Even Chris Paul is about to become president of the NBA's players' union!

Wait a minute!

Coach D doesn't need to look for a job anywhere else at all!

It seems that he can really ignore Paul's network behind him!

"In the entire NBA, only Coach D dares to speak like that!"

After Barkley heard Du Kang angrily reprimanding Paul, he was stunned for a long time before he let out this emotion.

At this time, on the big screen, Coach D's angry rebuke was not over.

"And DeAndre Jordan, if Griffin and Paul have a reason to let Pooh go, what right do you have to ask Pooh to leave?

In these four games, you were beaten to shit by Oden, and he still kept you on the court, replaced by Griffin, and also wanted to keep you on the court and give you a chance to prove yourself.

And how do you repay him?

Was it wrong for Pooh to ask his teammates to help you pack Oden?

Are you qualified to stand behind Greg one-on-one?

Now, you, are you worthy?

Back then, David Robinson begged Rodman to help him wrap up Olajuwon for the sake of the team's victory.

David Robinson is an MVP, a scoring champion, a supergiant, what are you? What qualifications do you have to put your face above the team's victory?

After being beaten to tears by Greg, many people said that you are the second admiral, which is the best joke I have ever heard, the admiral is the admiral, and you are nothing more than a selfish crybaby!"

After Du Kang finished speaking coldly, all the reporters who were going to make trouble at the scene were stupid.

And the audience in front of the TV, where has they seen this scene, they are all dumbfounded.

Including James Wade, who was in front of the TV at this time.

It also includes Paul, Griffin, and Jordan Jr., who had just come out of the shower in the locker room at this time.

At this point, the entire Clippers' locker room could be heard falling pins.

Paul was trembling with anger at this time, after so many years, who would dare to talk to him like this?

For so many years, when any professional talks about him, he doesn't say a benchmark for point guards, and some people even call him Grandpa St. Paul directly, willing to be his grandson.

However, in the mouth of Coach D, he has become a hateful player who has the ability, but does not use his ability, does not control the game, and does not know the boundary between offense and assist.

"Damn!"

Little Jordan had the same angry look on his face at this time.

「shi!」

Selfish?

I'm a selfish crybaby?!

Only Griffin, whose head was covered at this time, was buzzing with an explosion.

So I didn't scold Du Kang.

He's not that smart though.

But......

What Coach D said seems to be right.

Griffin clenched his fists tightly.

The expression on his face also flashed with anger, unwillingness and guilt from time to time.

And at this time, Du Kang's voice came from the TV again.

"Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, such players, even if they are sent to my team, I will not ask for them, only teams that do not pursue will need such stars."

Du Kang's voice just fell.

The locker room of the entire Clippers was silent again.

At this time, even Billups looked at Du Kang on the TV in shock.

Bang!

Bang again!

Little Jordan kicked over the chair.

Paul, on the other hand, punched his cabinet.

Griffin, on the other hand, stared at the disdainful Lakers head coach on TV with wide eyes, as if he was frozen.

"Oh my God......

Budenholzer felt like he was crazy at this point.

He really didn't expect Coach D to do that for his good friend Vinid Nagro.

Don't talk about him, even Popovich next to him is stupid at this time.

He's half of De Nagro's master, and he's the NBA's godfather-level head coach, and he can't do that for De Nagro.

At most, after the Clippers fired De Nagro, it was painless to say a few words about the Clippers' ignorance.

But Coach D......

In the NBA, a league of stars, Coach D really dares to train stars like dogs!

"How dare he!"

"He's really not afraid at all!"

At this time.

Almost everyone is Popovich such an exclamation.

Including reporters on the spot.

The Boston reporter who had just provoked the trouble didn't dare to say a word at this time.

Nima's, he originally wanted to make a small trouble, but Coach D made something so big that he couldn't hold it anymore!

Is Coach D training the Clippers Samsung?

Is Coach D holding on to De Nagro's grievances?

Yes, but no.

Who is not a human spirit here!

Coach D, this is a grievance for the head coaches of the entire league!

Coach D, this is still changing the atmosphere of the entire NBA by himself!

Many people say that the NBA has been changing the rules and hurting a lot of players.

But no one has ever said that the NBA has been changing the rules, hurting all the head coaches, making them more and more like vassals of the stars.

If it weren't for Coach D, he showed up.

In this day and age, can there still be a head coach like Cardinal, Pat Riley, or even Chuck Daley in the NBA?

Will there be a mad scientist like Nelson Sr. who can use players as tactical experiments and work hard to advance basketball?

If all future managers are the nannies of the stars, does the ability of the head coach still matter?

Even, does the manager still need it?

"Coach D is single-handedly challenging the structure and system of the entire NBA!"

"This is indeed Coach D's style!"

"However, if Coach D fails with the Lakers this season, not only will he have to leave the Lakers, but he may not even be able to go anywhere else in the NBA!"

"Coach D, he's doing something that shatters his bones!"

At the beginning, for Kobe Bryant's old-school players, he fought against the atmosphere of the entire league.

Now for the head coach of the NBA, against the structure and system of the entire league.

"It's too strong!"

"It's too rigid!"

"A Chinese actually doesn't understand the truth that it is too rigid and easy to break!"

For a while, the scene of the press conference was noisy.

Many people support it, but more people are gossiping and watching the excitement.

Right now.

Iverson, Nash walked in.

In the back, standing at the door were Kobe, Maddy, Carter, Howard, Yi Jianlian, Oden, Gasol, Artest, Jamison, Ibanks and other Lakers players, all of whom appeared.

"Coach, we see that you haven't been back for so long, and we're a little worried about you."

Du Kang nodded.

Well, I was a little angry just now.

Worried them.

They must have seen the live stream in the locker room as well, so they came over to support him.

Du Kang got up.

Iverson hurriedly picked up the suit that Du Kang had just taken off.

"Let's go."

Du Kang finished.

Nash, Iverson, Kobe, Maddy, Carter, Howard and other Lakers players, like followers, followed Du Kang out of the press conference.

「……」

After Du Kang left, it was half loud, and there was no sound at the press conference.

Teacher Zhang Lili, who had just seen Du Kang angry at the NBA stars, finally came back to his senses at this time.

"Teacher Zhang, Coach Xiao Du, it's so handsome!"

The squid's eyes were already glowing at this time.

The picture of so many NBA stars, like bodyguards, like little brothers, and like followers, followed Coach Xiao Du away, is too shocking!

This kind of shock is not only for the Chinese reporters on the scene.

It is extremely lethal to journalists from all over the world.

This includes viewers in front of the TV and fans on the web.

"Now, who still dares to say that Coach D is not self-sufficient?"

"Coach D, himself, is the biggest force in the NBA!"

The Clippers' locker room.

Punching and kicking, Paul and Jordan Jr. look like they want to kill Du Kang.

Watch the scene of Du Kang leaving under the protection of Iverson and MVPs such as Nash, Kobe, Maddy, Carter, and other supergiants.

The expression on his face was dull again.

They have a hunch.

After this picture.

In the entire NBA, no one dared to help them come out and directly slap Coach D.

was reprimanded by Coach D in vain.

Walking on the streets of Los Angeles, De Nagro took a long time to withdraw his gaze from the big TV screen on the side of the road.

With tears in his eyes, Denagro covered his face with his clothes.

"Thank you...... Thank you, Coach D......

De Nagro, who has always been stubborn and did not show weakness in front of Du Kang even if he was defeated, cried.

He never dreamed that when he was at his most helpless, as if abandoned by the world.

The person standing behind him was the person he ever hated the most, the person he had plotted to kill

"Coach D......"

Monty Williams looked respectful.

Another look of shame.

What a magical Monty......

How can I be on a par with Coach D.

"I used to envy and envy such a great person, ridiculous, ridiculous."

Phil Jackson was dumbfounded at this time.

He knew that next season, unless he took action himself, he would never be able to organize the entire NBA coaching force to fight against Coach D.

"This guy...

… It must have been on purpose!"

Phil Jackson thought through gritted teeth.

Right now.

"Phil, New York wants to invite you to be the head coach!"

Coach?

Phil Jackson looked dismissive.

"Tell them that my loyalty to the Los Angeles Lakers cannot be tarnished!"

"Du, something is wrong!".

Leave the press conference and return to the Lakers locker room.

As soon as they entered, Hamm and Clifford shouted excitedly.

"Du, G3 for the Rockets and Thunder, Westbrook didn't play!"

What?!

Du Kang was stupid.

Kobe Bryant next to Du Kang was also stupid.

In the G2 of the Rockets and Thunder, Beverley was in dead-ball time at halftime and suddenly crashed into Westbrook's knee from behind, just like when he hit Carter.

Wei Shao never thought that Beverly would dare to come like this.

There was no defense at all, and he fell to the ground at that time.

However, in the second half, Wei Shao played, and in the second half, he made 18 crazy shots like anger.

At that time, Du Kang and Kobe Bryant were both relieved, thinking that Wei Shao had no problem.

Now it seems that Wei Shao is a big problem!

"Du, the latest news, Westbrook has a torn meniscus in his knee, season, reimbursement."

Knee meniscus ...... Tear...... Season, reimbursement ......

Du Kang's head exploded with a buzz.

And Kobe Bryant, who was next to Du Kang, turned blue in an instant.

Du Kang looked at the TV.

Durant is shooting like crazy.

Durant is venting his anger on a frantic offense.

"It's miserable......

Looking at Durant, who attacked like anger on TV, Howard subconsciously sighed.

The finals were killed by the triumvirate.

The younger brother was sent away because the team was unwilling to pay the luxury tax.

The most trusted partner was hit hard again.

Thinking of what happened to Durant in the past year, Howard instantly felt that he was as lucky as a son of God in magic back then.

Kobe, who heard Howard's sigh, gritted his teeth and looked at Durant on TV, with a distressed face.

"Coach, I'll go out for a moment."

Du Kang came back to his senses and nodded.

"Go ahead."

"Wait a minute, Bryant, I'll go out with you."

Wei Shao is also his senior.

"Bobo, good news, the Thunder have released official news, Westbrook has a torn meniscus in his knee, and the season is reimbursed!"

"What?!"

Popovich almost got up from his seat in excitement.

I don't even have Bruce anymore, and God is still helping me like this?!

Could it be, really!

"Destiny is mine!"

Is the NBA's destiny on the Spurs this season?

After Popovich finished speaking excitedly, all the members of the Spurs coaching staff next to him became excited.

"Ahem, Mike, you go and condemn this violence on behalf of the Spurs, the NBA, there should be no such violence to hurt the players for everyone, condemn, condemn, condemn, and, say hello to Sam on my behalf."

The general manager of the Thunder, who was born with the Spurs, is a son of Popovich in the Spurs' scouting system.

"LeBron, the latest news, Russell is out for the season!"

"Russell, which Russell?"

"Russell Westbrook!"

What?!

James was stunned for a moment, and almost jumped up in excitement.

"This season, destiny is really mine!"

Russell Westbrook's season reimbursement was like dropping a depth charge on the NBA.

The Thunder, one of the four strongest teams in the NBA

Lost competitiveness.

It's not just that the entire NBA is condemning Beverley's hurtful violence.

At the same time, even the Grizzlies, Nuggets and Spurs have risen two tiers in terms of combat effectiveness.

The Grizzlies and Nuggets never dreamed that if they advanced to the second round, they would play a less powerful Thunder.

The Nuggets and Grizzlies are okay, and their combat power is stimulated and skyrocketed at the same time.

And Spurs......

Well, the Warriors, who are the Spurs' opponents, are out of luck.

Originally, the two teams played 2-2.

The news of the reimbursement for the Willis season was confirmed.

Spurs G5 and G6 won two games in a row.

G5, the Spurs were at home, crazy to defend Klay and Curry with a 4-point and a 9-pointer, Klay was 2 of 8 in the game, and Curry was 1 of 7 three-pointers.

If you talk about G5, it's that the Warriors are not good at playing away, and Curry is not good at playing away.

Then G6, the Spurs' outside defense is terrifying.

In the last 4 minutes of the game, relying on Curry's crazy defensive holes to hit Duncan, the Warriors chased 75-77, and the Warriors were about to turn the tables again.

Popovich replaced Duncan and replaced Ginobili, and the Spurs played one big and four small.

Under the defense of Leonard and Danny Green, the Warriors scored 4 points in the last 4 minutes!

Curry and Klay didn't score 1 point!

The intensity of the game shown by the Spurs did not only shock the Warriors fans at the scene.

Shocked the live commentary.

It also shocked Du Kang and the Lakers players in front of the TV.

"In this game, the Spurs, until the last four minutes, played the UCLA air cut, and the intensity of the game was raised."

Then, in 4 minutes, he did the Warriors 17-4!

This Nima's!

It's really scary!

It's too insidious!

If it weren't for Curry grabbing Duncan and beating him, he would have been distressed by Popovich's old thing, and he would have avenged Duncan.

Bobo, this old guy, he really wants to hold back until the end to surprise Du Kang!

"This is the playoffs!"

Du Kang once again grasped the essence of the NBA playoffs.

Strong hole cards, you don't have to use them at the beginning, use them at critical moments, the effect may be better!

This is also the reason why the system says that the simulation of the playoffs is for reference only.

When you meet a head coach like Popovich in the playoffs, what you simulate is just the shell he released, but in fact, the killer moves have been hidden and only used at critical moments.

"This old thing, why don't you keep a hand!"

After watching the Spurs and Warriors' G6, the Lakers' opponents in the second round are confirmed.

It's the Spurs.

Two other teams from the West have qualified.

The Thunder lost the Will, but also beat the Rockets 4-2.

The Grizzlies finally took control of the men's team, the Nuggets, and took out the Nuggets 4-2.

In the Western Conference semifinals, the Spurs played the Lakers and the Thunder played the Grizzlies.

"Spurs ......"

As he left, the UAE murmured in a whisper.

"Duncan ......"

Maddie, who returned home, closed her eyes.

"Hey, Steve, why are you still practicing?"

Du Kang left his office and saw that the lights on the training ground were still on, so he came over.

I didn't expect it to be the UAE, not Kobe, but Nash.

Nash hoisted the basketball on a rack, sprinted wildly, and made steals.

Nash, he's practicing defense!

"Coach, I don't want to be a hole for the Spurs to scratch."

Nash saw Du Kang and said bitterly.

"Every time I play Spurs, I'm the one who drags the team back."

Du Kang walked over and untied the basketball from the rack.

"Coaching ......"

"Steve, you

It's useless."

Nash wanted to simulate the training method he had developed at the beginning, and he didn't want to bother Lakers players like Kobe Bryant and the United Arab Emirates to come over and help, and in the end, that's all there was to it.

"Steve, you don't want to be substituted because of defense when you play Spurs."

"Coach!"

Nash looked at Du Kang in shock.

What a gentle person.

Du Kang thought with a smile in his heart.

He wants to prove himself against the Spurs.

But he didn't want his own requirements to affect his arrangement, so he kept working hard to squeeze himself and sharpen his knives to improve himself to meet his requirements.

In fact, Nash knew that as long as he asked, he would definitely agree.

But, no matter how much he longed, he didn't ask for it.

Where to find such a player?

Most of the NBA's head coaches may have encountered the likes of Paul, Griffin and Jordan Jr.

Even, players like Paul, Griffin and Jordan Jr. are already some of the best players in the NBA.

So Du Kang has always said that he is very lucky.

He met Nash, the MVP who didn't fight, didn't fight, and always cooperated with him.

Because of Nash, he can constantly suppress Kobe Bryant on the training ground, enhance his prestige, elevate Howard's status, and control the Lakers.

"Steve, remember, there are people in this world who want to see you get up where you fall."

Du Kang threw the basketball away from his hand.

"Go back and get some rest."

"Coaching ......"

"I'll take care of the rest."

After Du Kang finished speaking, he smiled and patted Nash on the shoulder and left.

Looking at Du Kang's disappearing back, Nash gritted his teeth and looked moved.

"Coach...... Thank you."

"Steve, is it true, is the coach really going to make a training plan for each of us?"

The next day, the Lakers' training gym, the entire Lakers were boiling.

Soon, Lakers assistant coaches Ham and Clifford arrived.

"This is the training plan that the coach has made for you, come and get it, and then do it as required."

"Don't rob, come one by one."

Clifford said so, though.

But the Lakers players are like crazy people, except for Nash, the big four guards, the United Arab Emirates, everyone else, that's really crazy.

"Mine is a big man attacking!"

"Mine is a mid-to-long-range shot!"

"Mine is the foundation of the offense!"

"Rebound!"

"Basketball 101!"

"Outside defense!"

"Big guy defends!"

After others snatched their training plans away.

Nash got his plan.

"Outside defense? 1,100 steals?"

"Ding, your player Nash has completed 1,000 steals, activated the attribute of steal ability 90, Ding, your player Nash's steal attribute has been adjusted to 90, Ding, your player Nash has comprehended the purple skill, and the gold interceptor level has been increased to purple."

Purple Interceptor: Greatly increases the chance of stealing a pass.

"Ding, your player Nash has completed 100 steals and completed the enhanced training camp "Outside Defense", outside defense, steals, passing insight, reaction time, blocking and defensive IQ, all stats +1."
