After getting the video of the triangle attack, Doon didn't immediately devote himself to tactical learning or daily training.

Tomorrow is the new season media day, and the day after tomorrow is the date when the training camp is open.

As for today, Doon first entered the studio with other Lakers players and took a few sets of makeup photos.

However, after Doon took the makeup photo, he was told that Kobe Bryant would not be able to come today, and the media day scheduled for tomorrow had to be postponed to October 10.

The start date of the training camp remains the same, which means that there is no specific plan for tomorrow, and all players will have a day off.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't go out with your teammates to have fun, whether you stay in the hotel to rest, or run to the stadium to play hard and become a training gym rat, it's no problem.

In order to try to get in the preseason, you can get the favor of the Zen master, and then get more playing time in the regular season.

Doon still decided to stay in the hotel and watch the video to master the triangle attack tactics as soon as possible.

However, the triangular tactics are a bit too advanced.

Doon was alone in his room watching the video, even though the video showed the founder of the triangle offense, who is also the current Lakers assistant coach - Tek Winter's personal explanation, Doon still saw it in the clouds.

In order to deepen his knowledge of triangle tactics and deepen his understanding of the corresponding tactics, Doon had to call Rambis and ask him to help him open a small stove.

After receiving Doon's request for help, Lambis did not express his displeasure, but after ten minutes, he came to Doon's room to teach Doon a lesson.

Although Doon was still dizzy to listen, and at one point he was drowsy and unable to keep his spirits up, just like he had studied English in his early years.

But after systematic study, Doon finally had some impressions and foundations of the triangle offensive tactics in his mind.

The time soon came to October 2, and the Lakers' Hawaii training camp officially opened.

After the morning physical examination, except for O'Neal, who was still recovering from his injury, and Kobe, who was not on the court, all the remaining Lakers players began to actively devote themselves to the study of triangle offensive tactics.

During this period, the Zen master also promoted the benefits of meditation to everyone. And with words, PUA is constantly carried out on the players.

The role players should not think too much about it, just listen to the Zen master's instructions and do it.

However, Peyton was a bit of a thorn, and after practicing the triangle attack for just a few dozen minutes, he began to reject the Zen master's teaching philosophy.

The Zen master didn't say anything about it, just let Peyton stay as if Peyton didn't exist.

Peyton found that the fuss didn't work at all, but rather annoyed the Zen master and O'Neill a little, so he restrained himself a little.

However, not much changed after that, just began to grind the foreign work, and Payton did not actively devote himself to the study of the triangle offense.

Thanks to yesterday's day's study, Doon can probably understand what Payton is resisting.

All three points of the triangle attack are ball carriers, but at the same time, only one person can hold the ball.

This means that the other two, even big names like Jordan, have to play obediently without the ball.

Payton has always played with the ball, let him hand over the ball, let him run the tactics, let him be constrained by the triangle offensive tactics, and play according to the script, he naturally plays uncomfortable.

At the same time, the triangle offense clearly distributes the scoring cake on the court to each player accurately.

It is usually divided according to the difficulty of scoring, and the closer to the basket is to attack in the low post, the easier it is to score.

Then, in the triangle offensive system, giving more balls and shots to the stars who play the low post is the most reasonable way to play.

The Bulls let Jordan play in the low post, on the one hand, the Bulls don't have a low-post killer of O'Neal's level.

On the other hand, Jordan is really impeccable!

By breaking through alone, the guard has a higher scoring rate under the basket than most interior players.

Jordan has another basket and puts the ball in Jordan's hands, even if the box is full, Jordan can put the ball into the basket in the low post.

Then again, the Lakers have O'Neal, and they are still the peak O'Neal.

With the low-post dominance of O'Neal at the peak, Jordan played with O'Neal, and he had to obediently give up the low post to O'Neal to play.

In terms of the distribution of shooting rights within the Lakers, only if O'Neal can't receive the ball in the low post, he will choose to replicate the success of the Bulls back then, like handing the ball to Jordan and giving the ball to Kobe.

O'Neill is in the low post and can play from the number one to the number five. Bryant is in the low post and can play from the No. 1 position to the No. 3 position.

And Payton, who also likes to play low back play, can only play from the No. 1 position to the No. 2 position.

Judging from the shot selection and scoring percentage, within the same team, it is inevitably more reasonable to give the ball to Kobe than to give the ball to Payton.

What's more, Payton is now getting older again, and when he encounters a point guard with a stronger defense, there will also be a Waterloo situation.

To put it bluntly, starting from the system of triangular offense, the inside line is greater than the outside line.

Starting from the current configuration of the Lakers, O'Neal is injured and absent, and Malone is not familiar with the triangle offensive system, so the triangle offense should be played around Kobe.

And because of Kobe's personal ability, he doesn't eat the point guard configuration at all on the offensive end, and he doesn't even eat the small forward configuration after gaining weight.

You only need to have the inside line to make up for the firepower of the No. 4 and No. 5 positions, and it would be great if it could also bring some high-level adaptability to the team.

It is because of this that Payton seems a little redundant.

For Payton personally, the triangle offensive system did not add any bonus to Payton, but greatly reduced his ball possession, making him very uncomfortable.

Doon can understand Peyton, who is old, but not that old.

A veteran like Payton must not be willing to retire immediately after the Lakers finish winning the championship ring.

Peyton must still want to go out and ask for a middle-class pension contract, after all, he still has a family to support.

At this time, the Zen master asked Payton to cut the ball and reduce the number of shots. Payton had a chance to play, and let Kobe Bryant play.

When this happens, no one will be happy.

Anyone knows that without the ball there is no stats, and without stats there is no next big contract.

In fact, the Zen master also intended to transform Peyton as a ballless man and as a 3D person.

The Zen master has long known that the Lakers F4 is not enough to score a ball, but the old Buss insists on introducing Payton, so what can be done?

In the Zen master's plan, O'Neal, Ma Long, and Kobe, this combination will be invincible if they play a triangle attack.

Kobe Bryant started off the bench and was able to play without the ball.

Malone has been playing blocking and dismantling before, has a strong ability to run without the ball, and is good at air cutting, switching offense, and can bring a lot of help to the Lakers in athletic warfare.

O'Neal can only play with the ball, but as long as Kobe Bryant and Malone play without the ball most of the time, the ball is enough for O'Neal to play.

At most, it is just for O'Neal to give a little more ball and shot to Malone.

Among the five starters, except for the three ball carriers of OK and Marlon, the remaining two should be 3D or 2D, that is, the point guard and small forward need to have the ability to open up the space and have good defensive ability.

Payton's defensive ability is good, but the three-point and mid-range have been inconsistent.

In fact, Payton even makes free throws, hovering around 70% all year round, and for point guards, his shooting ability is obviously weak.

So, in Zen Master's triangle offense, Payton is not as useful as dribbling guard Fisher.

Fisher doesn't stick to the ball, has a basket, and can open up space.

Although the defense will be suddenly blown into the air when it encounters a monster of Rose's level, it can still withstand ordinary starters.

As for the Lakers' starting small forward, in fact, they don't need to be too strong on shooting ability, as long as they can provide stable defense.

After all, Kobe has grown up in the past two years, and no one will wrap Kobe, which will make Kobe not so comfortable.

It can only be said that Peyton and the Zen master hated each other and tortured each other.

The Zen master felt that the old Bass did not listen to his advice, and did not use the middle-class exception to sign the 3D wing, but signed a useless Payton, but because Payton was famous, Peyton had to be the starter.

Payton also learned about the triangle and found that it was very unfavorable for him, and wanted to fight for some team status, and wanted to let the Lakers' offense be controlled by him alone, so as to get better statistics and fight for the next contract after winning the championship.

But because the prestige of the Zen master is too high, and the qi cultivation kung fu is too good, no matter how much he makes trouble, he will punch the cotton......

It is worth mentioning that Payton was hampered in the triangle offense, but Doane was like a fish in water.

Doon was supposed to practice with the substitutes, but because Kobe Bryant was absent from the training camp, the Zen master had to pull Doon to temporarily take Kobe's place.

In the next two days of 5V5 actual combat training, although Doon was busy making mistakes and full of loopholes, the Zen master still taught Doon very patiently and continued to give Doon a lot of ball and shots.

After a summer of hard work, Doon's strength has reached the starting level, and he is not far from the All-Star level.

The initial discomfort was just that the triangle offensive tactics were too complicated.

After the personal guidance of the Zen master and the continuous tutoring of Rambis, Doon finally began to integrate into the triangle offensive system, playing more and more smoothly and performing better and better.

Although, from the very beginning, the Zen master asked Doon to replace Kobe Bryant in training, and he was constantly PUA Doon.

But Dunn could feel that the Zen master's attitude towards him had changed slightly.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. On October 5, Bryant finally arrived at training camp in Hawaii.

The Lakers' first preseason game of the season is about to start on October 7, and Kobe Bryant is back now, and it's still time to return.

However, as soon as Kobe Bryant came, it was the stars holding the moon, and everyone played around Kobe.

Doon originally enjoyed this kind of prince treatment, but now he has become a deposed prince.

Fortunately, there are also Fisher, Devin George, Wharton Jr., Sampson, Udoka, Pargo and others.

In the bench lineup, Doon can still enclose himself and call for wind and rain.

Time came to October 7 in a blink of an eye, and the Los Angeles Lakers played the first game of the preseason against the Golden State Warriors.

Doon's NBA career is finally about to begin.
