It's useless to just think about it in your head, and after some discussion with Tyronn Lue and Mike Malone, they decided to put the idea of "everybody's an MVP" into practice tactically!

However, because the idea was too bold, Tyronn Lue only discussed with Mike Malone and did not have a meeting with the coaching staff.

His initial idea was to carefully select from the current team's tactical system and further develop a tactical system centered around a particular player.

For example, the pass-and-cut offensive tactical system centered around Curry has been developed relatively well, and after two seasons of polishing, it has become the league's No. 1 fast knife.

But that's not enough, the Clippers need to further develop a system with James Harden at the core, a system that highlights Harden's tactical core, and everyone else, including Curry, has to work for him.

Harden, as the sixth man, the team's second tactical core point, there are not many tactics around him, but in general, it is still auxiliary positioning, mainly organization, passing, supplemented by his own offense, and the number of shots is limited.

If you want Harden to be the core, Harden's own shot count will definitely increase, and his offensive pattern will definitely change.

Mike Malone shook his head after hearing this, and said: "Now that we are increasing Curry's playing time, everyone is not used to it, and it will take time to get used to it." If you add more weight to Harden...... Isn't this game a mess? How else do you fight? ”

Tyronn Ludau: "Of course, Curry is the protagonist of this season, but the relevant system, we will gradually develop it. For example, in some games, Curry is injured or has to be rested, and at this time, Harden can appear as the absolute core, and we have to make a good tactical backup, and in the long regular season, there is a plan for tactical experimentation and development. It's something we've been doing for the last few seasons and we've never stopped moving, Mike. ”

Although Malone is a little worried about this deviant approach, deep down he also admires Tyronn Lue, who is indeed a coach who is very different from himself.

Malone is a typical technical school, a workaholic, devoting his energy and life to basketball, delving into basketball skills and tactics, and learning to lead a team from the management level, motivating young people, etc., in short, he is a very coached coach, just like those typical coaches in traditional sports inspirational movies.

But Tyronn Lue is different, he is not a workaholic, he throws his hands in daily training, is in a daze in the game, pauses and closes his mouth, watches the game on the sidelines, chicken soup off the field, understands tactics but does not know much, adjusts but is useless, the main one is laissez-faire, the main player is to solve problems independently, and the tactical ability of the players is very strong, because it doesn't care at all.

But such a coach, the Finals turned the Cavaliers and easily took out the Heat, and through more than half a season of cooperation, he saw that Tyronn Lue has something that he does not have: calm and calm at critical moments, never discouraged mentality, and when tactics don't work, he can use inspiring speeches to reunite the morale of players and win key games.

At the same time, in the daily player management, Tyronn Lue has a good relationship with everyone, and if there is a sense of existence, it will not make the players feel uncomfortable, and it will not make the players feel that they have lost their backbone.

Another point is that Tyronn Lue was born in the Los Angeles Lakers, he has seen and experienced big scenes, and he has no problem dealing with the Los Angeles media, even if he pretends to be stupid, he also pretends to leave no traces, in short, he mixes well in the position of head coach.

Mike Malone is ashamed of himself, he thinks that if he is replaced, he is still suitable to go to some small teams as a head coach, with simple interpersonal relationships, and just play well.

It's a good fit for the two to be the head coach and the first assistant coach, better than Tyronn Lue with Kerr.

Because Kerr has too many things in common with Tyronn Lue, the two are too competitive, and a split is inevitable after a long time.

Malone chewed on Tyronn Lue's suggestion in his heart, and thought to himself, Tyronn Lue is really the true biography of Mr. Smart, and he is looking at problems more and more far-sighted, and more and more long-term.

After thinking about it, Malone agreed with Tyronn Lue's idea and said, "It's okay to do that, but if we do that, I'm worried that the regular season record will be affected to some extent, and we may lose some games." Like today's game against the Lakers. If the regular season record is not up to standard, Curry will have no chance of winning the MVP. ”

Tyronn Ludau: "It's better to have a good regular season record and a little lower in the table, so we have an away advantage. As for Curry's MVP, it doesn't have to be won this season, we still have to take a long-term view and look forward! Next season, next season, we have hope and goals every season! Mike, I would say, three consecutive championships, definitely not our ultimate goal! ”

As a player who has been with the Lakers, although he did not experience the Lakers' third championship in the 2001-2002 season (went to the Wizards), Tyronn Lue knows that three consecutive championships are basically the limit.

By the third year, the team's goal is only to win the championship, only three consecutive championships, win it in one go, achieve great things, can't win it, get discouraged, and disband.

is as strong as Jordan, if there is no two-year break in the 94 and 95 seasons, he was eliminated in 95, and the 96 king returns, and it is difficult to have the heart to continue the second triple championship.

But the Clippers are so different now, the whole team knows that they want to compete for the championship, they want to fight for three consecutive championships, but no one really cares about the championship.

Curry wants to win the MVP in order to motivate himself to do better, and other players also want to win the MVP, but also to make themselves better.

The focus of the whole team is not on the championship, but on basketball, and only by keeping their eyes on basketball and constantly advancing in terms of technique and tactics can the team continue to be strong.

Other people's three consecutive championships are all gritting their teeth, dragging their tired bodies, breaking through many difficulties from the inside out, and finally crossing the finish line, and then falling behind the finish line, exhausted to death, becoming a hero in people's mouths.

But the Clippers don't want to go this way, they are just chasing the great goal of "everyone has a ball", and accidentally won a few championships in a row!

At this moment, Tyronn Lue felt that he had come to his senses, that his coaching realm had been qualitatively improved, and that he had finally touched the realm of Mr. Smart's mind.

"It turns out that Mr. Smart's intentions are so great and far-reaching that he had such ideas even three years ago, and I can only keep up with him. How can the gap between this person and man be so big and so big? ”
