Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 421 The strongest head coach in the NBA!

The Lakers ended up with a record of 1 win and 2 losses in their three games in Boston. After five games, the Lakers were not eliminated, which is a good thing.

But it also gave the Celtics a match point with two games left in the finals, which is definitely not a good thing.

Even the 5-point defeat in the G20 game made many people despair.

At the post-game press conference, Lakers acting head coach Popovich expressed his despair in a humorous tone.

"Before the game, I said that facing the amazing Monty and the Celtics, I racked my brains and might only be able to win two games for the Lakers. Now, do you believe it?"

The reporters in Los Angeles were gnashing their teeth as Popovich looked at him with a smile.

However, there was nothing to say.

Because this game is exactly what Popovich said. The Lakers faced the Celtics and Popovich faced the amazing Monty. It seems that they can only win two games in one series. victory.

Because, Magical Monty's adjustment was too fast.

It got to the point where Popovich and Lakers supporters were desperate.

However, despite despair, Popovich did not give up.

"I am not a person who gives up easily. I have indeed given up now, but I know that Coach D has not given up yet. Let us see what happens next. Maybe God, who has never liked the Lakers, will give up in the next game. The game suddenly went to the Lakers' side?"

Popovich's words when leaving the post-game press conference were interpreted by many experts and Lakers fans as indicating that Coach D is likely to return in the next game.

Just like O'Neal said on TNT's Tiantuan show.

"God? Man, have the Lakers been favored by God even once in the past few years? Although I don't like this statement very much, but in the Lakers, there is only one God, not me, not Kobe, not Magic, but Coach D, now that the Lakers have lost the championship point, Coach D has no reason not to come back!

Popovich has given up. It can be seen from Popovich’s words that Popovich has given up. His words were not meant for reporters and fans. He said that when he faced the amazing Monty, I can only win two games. This is not said to reporters and fans, nor to us. It is not to praise the amazing Monty. No, maybe there is flattery, but it is more to coach D. Yes, Popovich told Coach D in a very cryptic tone that he has done everything he can. Now, he is no longer able to bring victory to the Lakers in terms of tactics and ability. If he plays in the next game, he has done everything he can. Coaching, then this is the game where the Lakers lose the championship and the title of No. 1 in NBA history! ! "

It has to be said that in this episode of the program, O'Neal, who likes to work hard, did not work hard. When O'Neal abandoned the traffic style of play, his smart brain once again occupied the high ground with his IQ.

As an audience in front of the TV, Popovich was surprised that O'Neal could interpret his true intentions.

He really has no confidence anymore.

He was indeed implicitly telling Coach D that there was nothing he could do now.

If he is still the same Popovich he was before, he will not express anything. The victory or defeat of the Lakers has nothing to do with him. He is from the Spurs!

but now……

He hopes that the Lakers can win the championship. He is now a Laker and at the same time, they are undertaking a great cause.

He could actually express his current despair and difficulties directly to Coach D, but there was no need.

Coach D's words have made it so clear. If the Lakers don't win three games, it will be useless for him to come back.

Instead of this, it would be better for Popovich to lead the entire Finals.

For Coach D, Popovich believes that he completely believes in him.

He also completely believed in Coach D's judgment.

But now, Popovich has some doubts. Even if it is 3-3 in the end, can Coach D really win if Coach D comes back?

This Celtic's current fighting spirit, current morale, and current chemical reaction are simply terrifying!

As one of the best godfathers in NBA history, Popovich knows very well how much impact chemical reactions have on a team, especially a strong team. It can make a team that originally scored 80 points score 90 points or even 100 points. points!

And that's what the Celtics are like now, their chemistry is already amazing!

At the same time, the Celtics are not an 80-point team. Considering the ability of the coach and the ability of the Celtics players, this is a 99-point or even 100-point team.

Such a team can have such a chemical reaction, which is unheard of in the history of the NBA!

The whole world knows that it is difficult for giant teams to have good chemical reactions. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, let alone so many tigers. This Celtics team is definitely the only one in the NBA.

Perhaps in the entire history of the NBA, only the Lakers led by Coach D can match the chemistry of this team.

However, the Lakers led by Coach D do not have so many giants, at least not at the same time.

In terms of hard power, there is still a slight gap.

Therefore, even if Coach D comes back, the two teams are about the same strength, have about the same coaches, and end up 50-50 split. However, in the end, those who are pretending will tear off the disguise, and that is a God-like Bug!

Coach D, how to fight?

There is no way to fight!

The strongest coach leads the strongest team with the strongest chemical reaction, and they also wear the strongest magic uniforms. If such a team and such an opponent are given to you, can you beat them?

Popovich now realizes how naive he was when he came to the Lakers to fulfill his career dream and kill the gods.

He never had a chance, not any chance.

Therefore, O'Neal said that he was right to remind Coach D. At the same time, this was actually some bitterness of his self-pity. Many of his true emotions were actually expressed in a joking tone.

As a proud person, no one is willing to accept such a blow. Even if he has been prepared for it, when the fairy showdown between Coach D and the amazing Monty is approaching, Popovich is still unwilling to be used as a consumable.

Even though he knew that his consumable was actually consumed for a great cause, and he deserved to die.

But I am still unwilling to give in, and I still feel sorry for myself.

Did Du Kang feel Popovich's complaints, despair and unwillingness?

Of course I felt it.

In fact, after watching all five games of the finals, Du Kang can better understand Popovich's unwillingness and despair.

Monty Williams is truly a consummate head coach.

Du Kang himself dare not say that he is a perfect head coach.

Du Kang also knows that he is not perfect. He likes to play exciting games. Such a head coach can never be perfect.

But Monty Williams is different. Monty Williams' coaching philosophy, player-oriented, is similar to his.

But Monty Williams' coaching style was completely opposite to his.

Du Kang knows his coaching style, which is because he started in the system, so he is used to predicting the opponent first, used to using his own machinations to change the opponent, allowing the opponent to be influenced by him, and eventually make mistakes and errors.

In fact, in the NBA, all coaches who can be called famous like this. Before his rise, Popovich was the strongest person. No matter whether the prediction is correct or not, he always likes to predict. Popovich The biggest mistake of Odd's career, favoring Duncan and finally being defeated by the Lakers, was Popovich's predictive coaching.

Therefore, all famous coaches like to take risks, predict and take risks, which is the quality of a famous coach.

It is actually very accurate to say that good gambling depends on the quality of a famous coach.

However, Monty Williams...he is also good at gambling, but his coaching style is not risky at all.

Rooted in the strength and characteristics of the team's own players, do things that are suitable for the team and the players, so that every player can play as comfortably as possible. I will play my own game, and the opponent will play their opponent's game. I will never be hurt by the opponent. Impact.

This kind of coaching style is simply unheard of among NBA head coaches.

Basketball is an interactive sport between two teams, and it is a strongly interactive sport. It is a stronger interactive sport than tennis and badminton, which are interactive dribbling separated by a layer of net.

It is such a highly interactive sport that was turned into a stand-alone sport by Monty Williams...

How much control this requires!

Du Kang never thought that it was something that could be easily done by shielding his opponents from his own world.

This requires the head coach to have extremely strong control. Your opponents want to interact with you. Why do you think you are immune to the influence of your opponents?

Romance of the Three Kingdoms was as powerful as Cao Cao and Zhou Yu, but they could not withstand the strong interaction of their opponents. They were eventually fooled, defeated, and ended in depression. Therefore, in such a highly interactive sport, no one can block the influence of the opponent. What you can do is to influence the opponent before the opponent affects you, and stab the opponent to death before the opponent stabs you to death.

Two people walk on a single-plank bridge, the brave one wins!

Before meeting Monty Williams, this was Du Kang’s understanding of basketball head coaches, and his understanding of NBA head coaches.

However, after meeting Monty Williams, Du Kang felt that his outlook on life had been impacted.

Monty Williams breaks down his understanding of basketball head coaching.

He and Monty Williams walked on the single-plank bridge. He drew his sword and killed him. Then, Monty Williams smiled and flew up...

The final result is that you walk on your single-plank bridge and I walk on my air corridor to see who of us can reach the end fastest.

Monty Williams's style of play made Du Kang feel uncomfortable and felt that his power was useless.

Even if you have the intellect of Zhuge Zhangliang, if the opponent is not fooled, there is not much you can do. Especially, if the opponent is still stronger than you in all aspects, you will be even more desperate.

That's what Popovich is like now.

Popovich felt that the Celtics were just a little bit stronger than the Lakers. Then, with all his intelligence and intrigues, he was directly blocked by Monty Williams. How could Popovich beat? There is no way to fight.

In the past five games, Popovich has actually worked very hard.

Du Kang also saw Popovich's efforts.

However, Popovich really can’t crack Monty Williams’ turtle shell.

It should be said that even he was powerless against Monty Williams' turtle shell.

In these five games, Du Kang hopes that Popovich can help him understand Monty Williams better.

For this purpose, Popovich actually completed his mission.

He did get to know Monty Williams better.

He used to think that Monty Williams' tortoise shell was very hard, but in the finals, especially the finals stage, no matter how hard the tortoise shell was, it would be difficult to maintain perfection.

Because no one in this world can treat a game like the finals as an ordinary game and treat it with an ordinary mentality.

After all, it is impossible for Monty Williams to face a crisis and still keep smiling on a stage like the finals, and then make his opponents remain invulnerable.

And Du Kang saw the final result.

Monty Williams can actually treat the finals with a normal heart. No matter whether he is ahead or behind, whether he wins or loses, he can treat it with a normal heart.

I have never thought about proving myself, nor have I ever thought about becoming a god. I am just who I was before.

To be honest, even if Du Kang faced this kind of opponent, without a system, he would feel hopeless.

In fact, even if there is a system... it is still very hopeless.

Because he can't use the system to predict the enemy first.

Because Monty Williams won’t play tricks with you at all, because Monty Williams is playing Huanghuang Avenue, because what Monty Williams is playing, even if you don’t use the system, even if you are just an ordinary fan , all know what he wants to play.

Monty Williams, that's how he plays.

Therefore, when he was with the Pelicans, the team was weak and his record was average.

But when it came to the Celtics, when he led the team with the strongest physical strength, he made people desperate.

Especially the Celtics, who have 99 hard power and 100 chemical reactions, are even more terrifying under his hands.

In this finals, Monty Williams just took the Celtics, a team that might have had a chemistry of 70 or even 60 at the beginning, to a chemistry of 100!

That kind of growing strength that is visible to the naked eye was the last straw that broke Popovich's back.

The Celtics are getting stronger and stronger as they play, Popovich has used all kinds of tricks, but Monty Williams just doesn't fall for it, so it's hard to collapse.

Popovich's crazy praise of Monty Williams before and after the games in recent games was actually his last contribution to the Lakers.

He wanted to ignite himself, to influence, to exalt Monty Williams.

Give Monty Williams a little crack in his turtle shell.

After all, he is not an ordinary person, he is Monty Williams' teacher. Anyone who can get such praise from the teacher will feel the pleasure of returning home in fine clothes, right?

Popovich is really working hard now.

Popovich boasted about him and Du Kang had never boasted like this. For someone as proud as him to boast about his apprentice like this, his apprentice blushed or not. Du Kang didn't know, but Du Kang must have known. Popovich must have been very ashamed. , it’s hard to be, very shy.

However, Popovich still did this. He really regarded himself as a consumable for the Lakers to win the championship.

Facing Popovich who burned himself out like this, it's hard for Du Kang not to be moved.

He felt that it was indeed too much to continue to let Popovich play against Monty Williams alone.

Moreover, coming back with a big score of 2 to 3, Popovich has actually completed his mission.

Popovich, who brought the team back from Boston, certainly didn't know that Du Kang would think so much.

After returning to the hotel in Los Angeles, Popovich did not go to rest, but waited for Du Kang's call.

He knew that Du Kang would definitely give him this call.

Regarding the leaked team situation of the Lakers, if Du Kang had any plans, he would not go to his office. Otherwise, there would be no need to wait for the next day. An hour later, the whole world would know that Coach D and Popovich were conspiring.

The call finally came!

Looking at the familiar phone number on his phone, Popovich had a relieved smile on his face.

"Bobo, you will still be the one standing on the sidelines in the next game, but..."

"I'll coach!"

what? ! ! !

Popovich was shocked!

I stood on the sidelines and Coach D coached behind the scenes! ! !

Could it be? ! !

Does Coach D really think he can't beat Monty Williams head-on? !

Although he knew the answer, Popovich was still shocked when the answer came out.

After hanging up the phone with Du Kang, Popovich couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Amazing Monty... Amazing Monty..."

Monty Williams actually forced Coach D to sneak attack him to have a chance of winning! ! ! !

He never thought that his students would grow up to such a day!

How can Steve Kerr be called one person fighting against two famous coaches.

This from Monty Williams is...

So, is Monty really the strongest head coach in NBA history?

Therefore, my flattery is actually correct...
