Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 45 The road down the mountain is too difficult, let's go back to the peak together!

After successfully helping Yi Jianlian train his elite mid-range shooting ability, Du Kang's current training plan has become the existence that everyone in the Lakers desires.

Howard is no longer the only one who expressly and implicitly hopes that Du Kang will help formulate training plans and programs to improve their strength.

However, all such requests were blocked by Du Kang.

Do you think this kind of training method is Chinese cabbage?

Want to be able to have?

If it is really Chinese cabbage, I hope that my team will become stronger than you.

If you can figure it out, you will have it; if you can’t, you won’t have it.

And you, Dwight, improve your free throws, this difficulty, hell level, you have to wait more.

In short, the reasons given by Du Kang are indeed very sufficient.

Such a fairy-level training method must be in line with the characteristics of each player, not Chinese cabbage, Du Kang has not yet fully understood their characteristics, and basically does not know their characteristics, so how can he prescribe the right medicine?

They were able to formulate training methods suitable for Yi so quickly because they were compatriots and had been familiar with them for a long time.

Therefore, although they are eager to get Du Kang's blessing, the Lakers players are also waiting patiently.

Also looking forward to who will be the first person to be lucky by Du Kang after Yi Jianlian.

This is very indicative.

Therefore, when Du Kang called Kobe over to accompany Nash to implement the training plan, all other Lakers players surrounded him.

Want to find out.

"Paul, what training plan did you say the coach would improve on for Steve?"

Artest was curious, and Gasol next to him was frowning and thinking.

"It can't always be defensive drills."

"Paul, I asked you to guess what it might be, not guess what it might be."

After Gasol finished speaking, Artest and other Lakers players complained about Gasol.

Faced with such complaints from his teammates, Gasol was also helpless.

How do you let him guess?
There are too many possibilities to guess.

It's impossible to guess.

So, the IQ of these black people...

Gasol doesn't even know how to complain.

These fools actually laughed at him as an idiot.

Who the hell is the real idiot.

"Bryant, you hit Steve with your back. Steve, you look for an opportunity to get the ball behind Bryant. It doesn't matter if you can get the ball, but you have to be quick and accurate!"

Du Kang is assigning training tasks to Kobe and Nash.

Both Kobe and Nash were stunned.

Then, the surrounding Lakers players also froze for a moment.

After that, the surrounding Lakers players quickly sobered up, and burst out with great enthusiasm in an instant.

"My God! The coach actually made Steve's defensive training plan!"

"Hahahaha, let me just say that Paul is an idiot, he just said that it can't be a defensive plan!!"

"The coach's training plan can even save Nash's defense?!"

Pau Gasol was dumbfounded.

It doesn't matter to Artest that he is a fool. What he really cares about now is, coach, can he even save Nash's defense? !
There are many Lakers players who were shocked at this time, but the craziest Lakers player must be Howard, who is the most "loyal" to Du Kang.

"Hahahaha, my free throw was saved, hahahaha, my free throw was saved!!!"

If it wasn't for Du Kang's timely stare, Howard, who was standing next to Yi Jianlian, would have rushed to Du Kang's place, hugged Du Kang and kissed him fiercely.

This is Nash's defense!

Training Yi Jianlian's CIC is called strengthening. Yi Jianlian already has a good CIC ability.

Training Nash's defense, this is called out of thin air!
Originally they thought that no matter how strong Du Kang's training ability is, he is also a strengthened trainer, and he will strengthen what you have.

This is already very eye-catching, very powerful.

But now...

"If the coach can really improve Nash's defense..."

If Du Kang was Kardashian in the eyes of these Lakers players before, then Du Kang is Marilyn Monroe in the eyes of these Lakers players now.

It's so hot!

In fact, I don't blame them. After all, it was created out of nothing. This kind of thing is too incredible.

Just talk about Kobe, his face is full of disbelief now.

"Coach, are you sure this has a training effect?"

"Try it, and then you'll know."

Du Kang didn't answer directly, he smiled at Kobe, and then looked at Yi Jianlian on the other side.

"Ah Lian, you bring the scoreboard over and count it for them. Once Steve picks it out, you count it once."

"Yes, coach."

Yi Jianlian didn't have any doubts, he did whatever Du Kang said. Looking at Yi Jianlian's back, Du Kang smiled.

Take this as a holiday for the United Arab Emirates.

Some time ago he practiced too hard.

"Dwight, and you, are you here to play? Give me training!"

Du Kang gave an order, and the Lakers players scattered like a mouse seeing a cat.

Even Howard is unusually obedient now.

"Coach, don't worry, if I don't complete 100 sets of free throws today, I won't leave the training ground!"

Howard did not forget to show his loyalty to Du Kang before going to training.

Seeing Howard like this, Clifford mourned in silence for his mentor Van Gundy.

Howard has never been so obedient in front of Van Gundy.

After all, compared to the coach, the teacher is really too kind, uh, no, it's too tender...

Hmm, does it seem weird to say that a 54-year-old is younger than a 23-year-old?
but……

It's so real.

"Steve, let's go."

After Du Kang handed over the team's training to the team's chief trainer Gary Vitti, he will take Clifford to prepare for the next game against the Thunder.

"Du, isn't Darwin coming?"

"No, he needs to organize the team's yellow-blue match."

And it's useless for Ham to come to the team's game preparation meeting, right?

He can't even be considered a cobbler now, but Clifford is definitely more than three-quarters of Zhuge Liang.

Clifford looked at Du Kang in surprise when he heard that Du Kang was going to host the team's yellow-blue match.

"Is there a problem with Steve?"

"No, no."

Clifford shook his head hesitantly.

In fact, Du Kang could understand Clifford's surprise.

Clifford felt that he had already integrated the Lakers, and this team should not be messed up again.

Even the most thorny Howard was subdued by him. As soon as the golden wristband was released, Howard knelt down directly.

The golden bracer is both a carrot and a stick. In Clifford's view, it is enough to handle Howard.

only……

He wants more than just getting hold of Howard.

He didn't even ask Howard to play 100% of his strength, but 150%, or even 200% of his strength!
For the old Lakers, Howard's energy is too important on the team's defensive end.

Whether it's a defensive counterattack against the Heat, or a UCLA cut against the Spurs, or against the Lakers' opponents in the next game, the Thunder of the two goblins, Howard's role is unique in the NBA. indispensable.

How far the Lakers can go in the playoffs depends on the team's defense, and the team's defense depends on Howard's dedication.

Howard is a very emotional player. When he is happy and serious, his combat effectiveness will be very high. Even James in the three gods costume can be defeated.

Making Howard obedient is only a preliminary taming of Howard.

Making Howard happy and serious is a technical job.

He couldn't give Howard the boss position, and it was difficult for Howard to be happy after a long time.

Every time the team trains, let Howard abuse Kobe once, it will make Howard feel good about himself, feel that he is already the de facto boss of the Lakers, and the Lakers are actually his team.

Not to mention Howard, anyone who abuses Kobe once a day will be floating, right?

Of course, if this is not enough, he also needs to really let Howard see the hope of being the boss of the team in the future.

And this requires Kobe to perform poorly in the actual game. It is best to strike the iron every game. This will make Howard feel that Kobe is no longer good, and the Lakers will be his own sooner or later.

Just like the last game against the Heat, Kobe scored 40 points. As usual, Howard must be unhappy.

Kobe is so good that he can't see the opportunity to be the boss of the Lakers, he will be bad.

But now, Howard didn't feel bad because Kobe scored 40 points. He was happy but unhappy, but he also disdained Kobe.

"It's not because of the coach's magic weapon that I can be so powerful. If I have the coach's magic weapon, I will be even more powerful!"

"In the next game, without the coach's artifact, let me see how arrogant you are!"

This is Howard's true emotion after the last game.

Therefore, it is not easy to pinpoint Howard.

It is even more difficult to get Howard to give you 200% of his life.

No, it's not just for him, it's for Howard himself.

"Steve, I'm the only one in this world who can show Dwight how high his peak can be."

Clifford stopped in his tracks and looked at Du Kang in surprise.

"Maybe ten years later, you will know that I am the person who loves Dwight the most in this world."

Du Kang finished speaking with a smile, and walked straight forward.

Looking at Du Kang's back, Clifford remained silent for a while.

At last Clifford nodded seriously.

Dwight has indeed wasted a long time of talent...

"Coach, you are right."

Clifford stepped up, this time free from guilt.

And, thank you, coach...

……

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, the training hall of the Los Angeles Lakers was still brightly lit.

Yi Jianlian was still counting carefully beside him.

He doesn't know how long the coach wants him to count.

Since Nash didn't mean to stop training, then he won't stop.

997 times.

998 times.

999 times.

1000 times.

Yi Jianlian flipped the scoreboard for the thousandth time, and Kobe stopped again on the training field.

"Steve, stop it, it doesn't make sense."

Kobe looked at Nash, whose eyes were still stubborn at this time, respecting him, and sighed.

Nash has been repeating this meaningless drill for so long.

He did not feel the slightest progress of Nash.

Nash worked very hard, and the coach may really want to improve Nash's defensive ability out of nothing, but it doesn't make any sense.

Even the other Lakers players who were originally interested in Nash's training plan have now left the training hall one by one with disappointment.

"Steve, coaches are people, not gods, you..."

Before Kobe finished speaking, Nash had already bent down to pick up the ball that Kobe dropped just now.

"Bryant, the way down the mountain is too difficult, don't you want to go back to the top?"

what? !

Looking at the still firm smile on Nash's face, Kobe's expression kept changing.

The smile on Nash's face at this time seemed to be like that day when he said to himself, you are a miracle, and so am I!
You are a miracle, and so am I...

These words entered his dreams countless times.

And this time...

The way down the mountain is too difficult, of course he knows.

Because they experienced 12 wins and 10 losses together, they were almost smashed to pieces!
Back to the top again?
Kobe shook his fists excitedly.

"I see, Steve, let's get started."

Kobe took the ball from Nash and sat on Nash again.

One putt, two putts, and when Bryant pushed back for the third time, he felt Nash's motion.

For him, the king of back-ups, it was too obvious.

With Nash's stealing ability, this time, Nash's steal will still fail!
Therefore, the moment Nash moved, Kobe made a predicted back turn.

Clap!
Kobe finished his back turn and was about to shoot, but found that the ball in his hand...

Disappeared!
Boom, boom, boom...

Not gone.

Instead, he was stabbed away by Nash!
Looking at the basketball rolling in front, Kobe, Yi Jianlian, and even Nash were stunned.

Nash looked at his hands in shock. At this moment, he felt that his heartbeat might have reached 200 times!
Is this the ability he has dreamed of countless times? !

He really has it!
Coach, really let him have this kind of ability that he only had in his dreams? !
"Bryant, maybe, the coach is our god!"

what? !

Kobe looked at the fanatical Nash at this time, his eyes stared out.

He wanted to object.

However, could the steal just now be owned by Nash?
At this moment, Nash has excitedly grabbed Kobe's shoulder.

"Bryant, the way down the mountain is too difficult, let's go back to the peak with the coach!"

This time, the string in Kobe's heart finally beat uncontrollably.

"I, accompany you."

……

……

"Ding, your player Steve Nash has completed the steal activation training with high quality, and his steal ability has increased to 80."

"Ding, your player Steve Nash's favorability for you has increased to 99, please pay attention to check."

Oh.

"Ding, your player Kobe Bryant's favorability for Nash has increased from 85 to 90, and Nash's favorability for Kobe has also exceeded 90. Nash and Kobe's mentor system is activated."

Um? ! ! ! !
Is it that fast?
What happened?

Du Kang was stunned.

……
