Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 85 The Iron Corvo who is Loved by the Whole World!

洛杉矶湖人在主场114比110艰难的击败了有备而来的开拓者之后，将自己的连胜提升到了14场，同时战绩也来到了31胜25负。

On the same day, the No. 31 Jazz in the Western Conference lost an away game to the Los Angeles Clippers, which brought the Jazz's current record to 25 wins and [-] losses.

The records of the two teams are the same. The Jazz leads 2-1 in the direct match, so the Jazz is now ranked seventh, while the Lakers continue to be ranked eighth.

At the same time, the Rockets, the No. 103 team in the Western Conference, also had a game today. In the end, they lost to the Wizards in a very unexpected away game. At the last moment, the Rockets failed to protect the backcourt rebounds and Bill grabbed the frontcourt rebounds. In the end, they lost 105 to 31, and their record also came to 27 wins and [-] losses.

It seems that after being surpassed by the Lakers in record, the Houston Rockets seem to be slowly losing their mentality and falling behind.

James Harden, the new boss, seems to need to sharpen.

After all, the Lakers look like a rainbow now, and it is difficult to catch up after being overtaken.

The Jazz are notoriously stable in the league.

The team ahead...

The Golden State Warriors, sixth in the West, are now 32 wins and 23 losses.

The fifth-place Nuggets in the West are 35-22

The Grizzlies, fourth in the West, now have a record of 36 wins and 18 losses.

The Clippers, third in the Western Conference, are 39 wins and 19 losses.

The Thunder, second in the Western Conference, have 40 wins and 15 losses.

The No. 45 Spurs in the West, 12 wins and [-] losses.

The Rockets may not be able to catch up with the teams in front of them.

However, for the Lakers, the Lakers, who are now 31 wins and 25 losses, seem to have touched the heels of sixth and fifth in the West.

Try harder, maybe you can touch the ass.

If possible, the Lakers certainly hope to break into the top six in the Western Conference.

Both fifth and sixth can avoid the Thunder and Spurs, the two super teams in the West, in the first round.

The regular season has entered this stage, the Rockets, Jazz and Lakers, these teams want to rush to the rankings, the teams that have not made the playoffs want to make the playoffs, and the teams that made the playoffs want to go further.

And the Clippers, Grizzlies, Nuggets and Warriors, which are very stable in the playoffs, can't make it up or down, so they want to hold their current position and not let them overtake.

As for the Thunder and the Spurs.

Well, the Spurs must be very uncomfortable now.

His two bitter home teams, the Grizzlies, ranked fourth and the Clippers ranked third.

Damn it, it's uncomfortable to get the Spurs ranked first, and it's also uncomfortable to fall to second. The second round is either against the Grizzlies or the Clippers.

Before the decisive battle with the Thunder, it would be hard to beat a wave of Grizzlies or Clippers.

The Spurs probably dream of the Grizzlies and Clippers, the fourth and fifth teams.

In this way, he can also give up the first position to the stunned youth team Thunder, and he will fall to the second place, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.

However, even if the Clippers and the Grizzlies are third and fourth, the Spurs probably will deliberately lose a few games to make their record drop.

Because neither the Clippers nor the Grizzlies will fall after sixth. There is a possibility of falling to fourth and fifth, although the chance is just in case.

But in this case, good luck appeared.

The Spurs' record is high, and they can't fall even if they want to. Isn't that a loss?
So, the nine teams in the West that are vying for the playoffs right now are pretty interesting.

The last three of the top nine in the Western Conference are red eyes.

The middle four of the top nine in the West seem to be watching the sea at home.

For the top two in the Western Conference, the Spurs are thinking about how to lose a few games, while the Thunder are thinking about winning desperately, it is best to win the first place, and increase the chips for the team's leading player Durant to compete for the MVP.

The current playoff situation in the West is very interesting.

So in the press conference after the game, Du Kang was also asked about the situation of the playoffs.

As far as the current situation of the Lakers is concerned, the seventh and eighth in the Western Conference are the most likely.

"Whether it is the Thunder or the Spurs, we don't want to meet them in the first round. There is still one third of the regular season left. Some miracle."

Soon, Du Kang's speech at the post-match press conference was instantly magnified.

"Coach D seems to really think that he and the Lakers can continue to win like this? They almost lost the game against the Trail Blazers. Maybe Coach D should be more pragmatic. They will soon start a continuous Western road trip , Maybe the next time we return to Los Angeles, Coach D and the Lakers will fall to ninth in the Western Conference and work hard for the playoffs.”

This is the Boston Globe.

"The current lineup of the Lakers looks very luxurious. The four major guards, Nash, Oden, Howard, Yi, Jamison, Artest, Gasol, but basically they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. If Coach D If you can't make a good rotation at the end of the regular season, the Lakers risk a sudden collapse."

This is the Los Angeles Times.

"Coach D has a lot of courage in the rotation of players, and the current rotation is not bad. The game against the Trail Blazers did not include Gasol, obviously for the next game. However, if a team has veterans and There are too many teams with hidden dangers of injury, which will make people worry about accidents. Now the fans in the NBA who are most worried about the sudden injury of the team are the fans of the Lakers. Every game, the fans of the Lakers are trembling."

Here's ESPN's review.

In the general situation where Dukang and the Lakers are making great strides, except for the hardcore D black Boston media, most of them are actually not black. Maybe what they say is a bit exaggerated, but it is basically neutral and telling the truth.

The current situation of the Lakers is indeed a type that looks like a flower, but it is easy to collapse if you are not careful.

There are 15 players on the Lakers team, except for Kobe, Howard, and Ebanks, none of them has a physical strength above 90.

It's not the old four guards and Nash.

It is Chris Duhon, who is weak like Meeks.

Or a disease like Auden.

Wheat is such a residue.

In a fierce game, Kobe and Howard are the only players who can maintain their combat effectiveness for more than 30 minutes.

Carter, Nash, and Iverson are barely.

Yi Jianlian, Gasol, Artest, Jamison are barely.

And Maizi, um, if it's not very intense, the energy-saving style of play can be played slowly for 20 minutes. If he really meets a beast team like the Thunder, Du Kang really dare not let Maizi play for fear of being washed out.

As for players like Oden and Jordan Hill, they all have certain special talents and can be used, but they are temporarily unable to stand up and make contributions in every game.

Just say Auden.

Playing against the Trail Blazers, the team he is most underestimated and the team he is most familiar with, Du Kang simulated three games before he had a superb performance.

Therefore, every game of the Lakers requires Du Kang's precise calculation and rotation to avoid injuries.

Du Kang also did design a playing time limit per game for the current important players of the Lakers.

Kobe and Howard are 36 minutes.

Nash, Yi Jianlian, Carter, and Iverson have a maximum of 30 minutes.

Gasol, Artest, Jamison, Oden up to 25 minutes.

Maizi, on the other hand, is swaying, depending on his current situation and the opponent's situation.

The Lakers' own situation does have some problems.

At the same time, the opponent is indeed madly targeting Dukang and the Lakers.

The Lakers' situation is indeed not that good now.

According to the reports of these media, it seems that the flowers are blooming like a brocade, but it is not wrong to step on the tightrope on the verge of collapse.

In the final analysis, his current prestige and MP are not enough.

If he has 10 MP, he restores the durability and physical strength of all veterans, and then I will show you what cruelty is!
His current prestige is not convincing because he does not have a championship.

He can have such a great prestige now, in fact, it is all brought about by Kobe's blacksmithing and continuous victories.

Kobe has become like this, with 10 irons in 8 games and 14 irons in 12 games. Du Kang can lead the Lakers to win continuously. This is the source of his prestige.

Such prestige is a bit floating.

Now the gift from Jeribas has made his prestige even more unconvincing.

Those famous people of the Lakers before supported him, but now they all jumped back, and even his senior Kareem Abdul-Jabbar became ambiguous.

At the same time, within the Lakers, except for Jim Shushu, basically every faction is now on the opposite side of Du Kang.

This is a matter of human nature. You have not received any actual honors, but you accept such a gift, why don't you go to heaven!

Jim Buss gave him the highest authority of the Lakers, and also gave him the greatest pressure to succeed in history.

If Du Kang can't succeed quickly this season, he probably won't be able to get along with the Lakers.

When he really leaves, he has no face to ask for the 6% of Old Bath's shares.

He will eventually transfer these shares to Jim Solo.

After all, he is still a champion!

There must be a championship this season!
And it is the kind of championship that the whole world believes that without him, the Lakers cannot win the championship!
Kind of like the head coach's version of the 2011 Mavericks champion.

Only by winning such a championship can he truly coerce the Quartet in the Lakers and truly have everything.

Otherwise, it means that morality is not coordinated.

……

……

"Fairy, don't be too angry. Although the Blazers lost the last game, the way you played against the Lakers for the Blazers will definitely be popularized quickly. Every game of the Lakers in the future It's going to be tough, and Coach D's first loss won't be long."

Even so.

But Mayfair Jackson was still very upset.

The Lakers played the Trail Blazers, the Lakers won, and in the end, these shitty media actually said that Coach D defeated Mayfair Jackson.

If I were the head coach of the Trail Blazers, I would have beaten Coach D to pieces in the last game!

Can Stotts' presence compare to mine?
There's absolutely no way I'm going to let Lillard mess up like that in the first quarter.

And definitely won't let Oden grab offensive rebounds like that at the end of the second quarter!
In the second half, if Coach D does not play Howard, I will definitely let the Blazers attack Oden crazily, single-play Oden, and bully Oden's defensive instability.

The more I thought about it, the angrier Mayfair Jackson became.

"Maybe, since you have so many ideas, why don't you open a column on ESPN or other media to analyze the Lakers' game?"

After Aunt Jane's assistant finished speaking, Mayfair Jackson froze for a moment.

What the hell!

You guys are really ruthless.

Anyway, I am the former head coach of the Lakers and the husband of the Lakers owner. I have offended the Lakers fans by giving advice to the opponent behind the scenes. Now I am openly analyzing the Lakers’ problems in the media. This is not equivalent to joining the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks. Enemy?

I, Mayfair Jackson, am I this kind of man!

Don't you think I'm too vulgar!

Seeing that Mayfair Jackson was a little angry at this moment, but also looked upright and awe-inspiring.

Aunt Jenny's assistant smiled disdainfully in her heart.

"Fair, can you really listen to what those people are saying? A dignified head coach with 11 championships is considered inferior to a rookie who doesn't even have the best coach of the month?"

"Fair, do you really think what they said is correct? I think they are wrong. You can use Jordan and OK well. Why is this due to Jordan and OK? Not to you?"

"Coach D can't use Kobe well, but he can get everyone's praise. You can use Kobe well, but you are considered to be hugging Kobe's thigh. Are you willing?"

"I think your talent is above Coach D, you are a better head coach than Coach D, but you are too good, let the players play too well, people think you are hugging thighs, people think you Just a person with no talent and good luck, don't you want to correct the world's prejudice against you?"

Mayfair Jackson, who was righteous just now, had a somewhat excited expression on his face.

Yes, why!
Why haven't I thought about this before?
Does Jordan have a championship without me?
OK without me, do they have a champion?

If O'Neal hadn't won a championship by hugging Wade's thigh, Jordan and OK's championships were all brought to them by me!

But how could someone as smart as Phil Jackson be so easily used as a gun.

"Is this what Jenny said?"

Mayfair Jackson frowned.

"No, that's how all of us see it."

"Everyone?"

Phil Jackson froze for a moment.

"In the Lakers, no one likes Coach D, and we all look forward to his departure."

Mayfair Jackson is excited again, the godfather of the Lakers, he is still eager.

He already has 11 championships, and his pursuit in the NBA is no longer a championship, but status.

In the NBA, the highest status a head coach can obtain is godfather!

The godfather of the Lakers, the godfather of the Celtics, and the godfather of the New York Knicks, these three positions are the pinnacle of NBA head coaches.

The godfather of the Celtics is gone, forever.

The godfather of the Lakers and the godfather of the Knicks are vacant.

He's a loyal guy and certainly won't be going to the Knicks.

The godfather of the Lakers is his only choice.

And for the position of the godfather of the Lakers, he conspired so much and managed it for so long, how could he give up.

Back then, because the Lakers were always under pressure from Jerry West.

Even if Pat Riley won four championships, even if Pat Riley was the No. Terry was interested in himself and left by himself.

As long as Jerry West is under pressure, the head coach of the Lakers cannot become the godfather.

Therefore, when he came to the Lakers, he came to the position of the godfather of the Lakers. After coming to the Lakers, after Jerry West helped establish the framework of the Lakers' OK dynasty.

The first thing he did was to unite with Jenny and drive Jerry West away.

In order to force Jerry West away, he also completely offended Old Bath.

But he has no choice, he is here for the position of Godfather of the Lakers, Jerry West must get out, otherwise what is he doing with the Lakers?
However, after Jerry West left, Old Bus took back Jerry West's powers in order to disgust him. Even if he supported Kupchak into a puppet, he would not give him the power.

Later, he found out that he really couldn't handle Old Buss. When he entered the palace for the second time, in order to show his favor to Old Buss, the Lakers worked hard, took the initiative to cut their salary, and married Jenny.

I thought it was safe this time.

Nima's!
In the end, Old Bass gave a rookie what he dreamed of so easily, and didn't give it to him!

He suddenly discovered that he had been prostituted by Jerry Bass all these years! !

Didn't he just get Jerry West away?
I'm willing to call you daddy, but you still hate me so much!
Can this be tolerated?
No one can stand it!

"Do most people in the Lakers really want Coach D to go?"

"But, he owns 6% of the Lakers' shares?"

Seeing Mayfair Jackson like this, Aunt Jenny's assistant smiled disdainfully.

"Fair, do you think Coach D is a proud person?"

"..."

Seeing Mayfair Jackson suddenly stunned, the assistant was even more disdainful.

Why do you think Coach D and Jim can pee together?

You may not like this kind of people, you may think they are idiots, but you will respect them from the bottom of your heart.

"As long as the Lakers can't win the championship this season, Coach D will leave the house!"

"Coach D leaves, and Jim will definitely not be able to stay with the Lakers anymore. Jenny will take the stage at that time, and you will become the new head coach and general manager of the Lakers."

"Fair, when the time comes, you will eventually become the godfather of the Lakers!"

After Aunt Jane's assistant finished speaking, Mayfair Jackson's face turned red with excitement.

There is no way, this pie is really too big, and even the route has been planned, and the operability is extremely high.

As long as the Lakers are prevented from winning the championship, everything about Coach D will belong to him!

Mayfair Jackson suppressed the excitement in his heart.

A dignified and dignified look of justice appeared on his face again.

"The quarrel between me and Coach D is not because of the position of the godfather of the Lakers. Whether it is me or Coach D, we all hope that the Lakers will be good. As long as the Lakers can be good, whoever takes this position will have no problem."

"..."

"The reason why I'm so angry recently is entirely because Coach D used Bryant, who I trained by myself, into such a distressing appearance. He is the MVP of the NBA, the scoring leader, five championships, and the most famous player in history. A tenth-level player!"

"..."

"Under Coach D, Kobe played 14 irons in 12 games. Under Coach D, Kobe didn't dare to attack, and he didn't dare to take the ball. He was like a player who could only defend and run. The walking dead!"

"..."

"If there is one person in this world who loves Kobe Bryant, it's not the Lakers fans. The Lakers fans have defected. It's not Mr. Jerry Buss. Mr. Buss has passed away. The only person in this world who still cares about and loves Kobe Bryant is me! "

"..."

"I want to save Kobe, I want to be on ESPN, I want to write a column in the Los Angeles Times, teach Coach D how to use Kobe, and teach the Lakers how to win games better!"

"..."

What the hell!

Aunt Jenny's assistants were stunned.

This old guy!
That's really okay!
If it weren't for old Mr. Bass, ordinary people really couldn't handle him, let alone prostitute him for nothing.

Even a strong man like Jerry West can be taken away, can it be an ordinary person?

I just let you analyze the Lakers' problems in the media.

Good guy.

You old bastard, not only have to analyze the Lakers' problems, but also engage in infighting among the Lakers!
This is to dig out the roots of Coach D!
but……

"May'er, you are the most gentleman and the most loyal person I have ever met."

"Ugh."

Mayfair Jackson sighed, and finally nodded helplessly.

"No way, who made Kobe and the Lakers so worrying and hard to let go."

……

……

On the afternoon of February 2th, the Lakers' training ground.

At this time, the atmosphere of the Lakers players was a bit wrong.

"Do you think the coach will be very angry now?"

"Surely you will be very angry?"

"After all, it's Mayfair Jackson, and what he said seems to make sense."

"This is Kobe Bryant. He played 14 games in 12 games under the coach. This is really abnormal. If Kobe is allowed to let go, he can still score 81 points, but in addition to playing against the Heat, he played against the Clippers. In the game, the coach didn't give Kobe a strategy at all..."

"Well, is it possible that the coach still doesn't formulate special singles tactics? It's all about the players' own play on the court, and Kobe just doesn't want to attack? In the second quarter of the last game, he didn't make a single shot. nothing?"

"Why didn't you say that Kobe made 9 shots in the first quarter? Is Kobe the kind of person who doesn't want to attack?"

"So, you said, Kobe has 14 irons in 12 games, what is the situation? Is it because the coach suppressed and did not give tactics, or is he really old?"

……

……

Because the Lakers just played the game last night.

There is also a game against the Timberwolves at home in the evening, so the training is all recovery training, and the players are very free.

"Coach, don't listen to that bitch Mayfair Jackson barking. Kobe just lost his strength, so what does it have to do with you? If it wasn't for your golden wristband, he wouldn't even be able to perform in those two games!"

"Now Kobe actually used Mayfair Jackson's mouth to exert pressure in order to get back the team's right to shoot. Coach, Kobe wants to rebel!"

Well, as far as the IQ of sowing discord, Howard is still very high.

Mayfair Jackson did gain a lot of attention after he publicly lamented his former protégé Kobe Bryant on a new ESPN column.

No way, the Lakers are really hot, Coach D is really hot, and Kobe's miraculous performance of 14 irons in 12 games is indeed miraculous.

So many interesting things with a lot of traffic are put together, it is impossible not to attract attention.

And after Mayfair Jackson's column came out.

All the celebrities of the Lakers and the NBA are complaining for Kobe.

"I don't believe that Kobe is dead anymore. He is the hardest player I have ever seen. I think Coach D needs to give respect to the greatest player in the history of the Lakers. Kobe needs a tactic, even if he doesn't give it. The right to fire in unlimited singles with him."

This is the magician.

"Coach D's performance with the Lakers is admirable, but that's Kobe, no Lakers fan would want this to happen, my God, I don't want to see Kobe 8 of 1, 15 of 4, 9 every night 3 hits, 11 hits out of 2, this makes me feel distressed!"

This is Worthy.

"Kobe is one of the greatest players in the NBA."

This is James.

"I'm not worth it for Kobe, I won't play for a head coach who suppresses me like this, I will never play for a head coach like Coach D!"

This is Wade.

……

……

It can only be described as grandiose.

Even many Kobe fans are madly supporting Kobe online at this time.

Indeed, as a Komi, it is difficult for you to accept the fact that Kobe is so iron every night.

but……

"Someone is digging my roots!"

Du Kang narrowed his eyes, thinking in his heart.

"Coach, these people are forcing the palace. They just think that the trading day is over. You dare not do anything to Kobe, and you dare not let him play!"

Howard looked unhappy.

In fact, he was also very disturbed.

Although he believes that Kobe is dead, the future of the Lakers is his own.

but……

14 irons in 12 games is indeed too miserable.

But beating James and that 81 points?
Howard took a peek at the blue wristband on Du Kang's hand.

Is the magic of the coach really that great?

"Dwight, you actually believe in Mayfair Jackson, don't you?"

"Coach, I..."

Du Kang smiled and stopped Howard from expressing his loyalty.

"Go, call Bryant for me."

"Coach, you don't care about these guys at all!"

"Go."

Du Kang smiled and waved his hand, finally Howard gritted his teeth and went to call Kobe.

……

……

"Coach, I didn't..."

"Bryant, no need to explain, I know."

Du Kang smiled and extended his right hand to Kobe.

Seeing Du Kang's outstretched right hand, Kobe gritted his teeth, and reluctantly put the golden wristband on Du Kang's hand.

After taking back Kobe's golden wristband, Du Kang looked at Kobe with a smile.

"Bryant, do you actually want to?"

"Coach, I..."

Du Kang interrupted Kobe with a smile.

"In the next game, you can fire unlimitedly, and if you take less than 47 shots, you will be suspended for one week."

"..."

……

……

"Fairy, your plan has succeeded!"

"Coach D has no choice!"

"The atmosphere in the Lakers locker room has gone bad!"

Mayfair Jackson ignored the excited Aunt Jane's assistant next to him, with an elegant smile on his face.

"Coach D? Hehehehe..."

In this kind of game that needs to prove himself, Kobe never disappoints!

Whether it's a beating against James or a tribute to Jerry Buss with 81 points.

Neither disappointed!
That's not the effect of that golden bracer of yours.

That is the strength of Kobe Bryant!

50 point?
60 point?
70 point?
Even 80 points?
It was a nostalgic past.

Coach D, in the next game, Kobe will let you know what cruelty is!
