Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 99 The Button of Death returns to the NBA!

In this game between the Warriors and the Lakers, Warriors coach Mark Jackson wants to win.

But Curry and Clay's performance before the game directly destroyed the Warriors' home momentum.

He was so angry that he wished to trade these two live treasures directly.

If he really has the power to trade the team, these two people are probably not in the Warriors.

It's a pity he doesn't have such power.

This is why many NBA head coaches envy Coach D so much.

"According to the information on the Internet, congratulations to our Stephen and Clay, the dunk video they paid tribute to UFO just now has become a trending search on Twitter and a hit on Youtube!"

The Warriors' on-site DJ was quite excited. There is no way, the attention of the Warriors is really low now.

Curry, the team boss, averaged 22 points and 7 assists per game this season. In this year's All-Star voting, he actually ranked eighth among Western Conference guards.

You say it's not as good as Kobe, Nash, Paul, or Westbrook.

Why is Jeremy Lin and James Harden inferior?
The record of the Rockets led by James Harden is not as good as that of the Warriors. The data is better. If the number of votes for James Harden is tens of thousands more than that of Curry, it is acceptable. However, the number of votes for James Harden is 3 times that of Curry. What the hell is this?

Jeremy Lin's votes are five times that of Curry's!
Curry's All-Star votes are not even as good as Parker's, and he has 2 more votes than Rubio.

In terms of popularity in the NBA, Curry is now on the same level as Lu Yuanwai.

Coupled with the rise of the Lakers this season, the Warriors' national live broadcasts are often pigeonholed.

As a result, the Warriors' low attention was made even worse.

"Thanks for the attention of this great game, thanks to Coach D, thanks to the four guards, thanks to the Los Angeles Lakers, let our star be known to the whole United States!"

What the Warriors Dj said now made Mark Jackson even more upset.

The head coach of the Warriors stopped staying with Du Kang and the others, and rushed directly into the court to catch Curry and Clay.

The face of the iron-blooded warrior I created will be completely lost by you two bastards!

"Jerry, it seems that Coach Jackson has a special relationship with them."

"Did Coach D find out too? Mark and Curry, Thompson's styles don't match, right? One is a rigid defensive coach, and the other is a smart offensive player."

Du Kang nodded.

It's really incongruous.

Du Kang had studied this season's Warriors with Clifford before this game.

The Warriors are one of the teams with the highest three-point shooting percentage in the NBA. The entire team's three-point shooting percentage has exceeded 40%, which is incredible.

However, the average number of three-point shots taken by the Warriors per game is actually 4 times less than their opponents!
Yes, the Warriors are shooting 6 percent more three-pointers than their opponents per game, but taking 4 fewer shots than their opponents per game.

This shows that someone in the Warriors does not want the Warriors to shoot three-pointers.

Who is this guy?
It's certainly not that Curry and Klay are unwilling to vote.

This person is naturally Mark Jackson, and he is suppressing the offense of Curry and Klay Thompson.

At the same time, his defensive strategy in the Warriors is a shrinking defense, so it will give opponents a lot of three-point shooting opportunities.

Why shrink the defense?

Of course, I don't believe in the defensive ability of the Warriors' perimeter players such as Curry and Klay Thompson.

I don't believe in Curry's defense, and they are unwilling to give Curry enough offensive privileges.

It shows that the coach doesn't trust his players.

This shows that the players that Mark Jackson wants are not Curry and others, and the head coach who is suitable for Curry is not Mark Jackson.

Since you know this, Mr. Jerry West, why don't you act?
Is it really good to waste a player's career like this?

"Coach D, do you think I'm wasting Curry's career?"

"..."

Fuck, Mr. Jerry West, you are not really cheating, are you?
"Mark is not the best coach for them, but he is the one they need most at the moment."

"..."

Du Kang felt that he seemed to understand something.

My God, Mr. Jerry West, it turns out that you are letting Mark Jackson, the defensive coach, reinforce Klay Thompson and Curry's attitude towards defense and their requirements for discipline!

To put it simply, Mark Jackson is the most suitable head coach to lay a defensive foundation for Curry and Thompson!

Therefore, even knowing that Mark Jackson is not suitable for them, Jerry West is waiting patiently.

Wait for Mark Jackson to build Curry's defense and discipline, so that with a coach who fits the style, the Warriors can take off immediately.

Fake!

"Is this the greatest manager in NBA history? I really envy the next head coach of the Warriors."

Du Kang's words completely confused the magician next to him.

Coach D, why did you say such a sentence suddenly?

then……

"Coach D, you are better than me."

Jerry West said with a smile.

He didn't actually say much, but Coach D understood his intentions in seconds.

He is relieved that the Lakers have such a future godfather.

Temperament, coaching, character, pattern, all perfect.

Looking at Du Kang and Jerry West suddenly looking at each other and smiling.

The magician next to him felt completely suppressed by his IQ.

"I'm called the smartest black player by the media!"

On the sidelines, Curry, Clay, Harrison Barnes, Dreaming Green and other young Warriors players were caught by Mark Jackson for training, and they became honest in an instant.

However, after Mark Jackson finished training, Curry still ran to Carter with a smile.

"Carter, you have to be careful in this game. Mark said, in this game, we are playing at your point. You haven't played for half a month. Is there a problem with your knee?"

Carter smiled and said nothing.

He patted Curry on the shoulder and told him to go back quickly, otherwise he would be punished again.

The pre-match slam dunk practice of the two teams ended and the game officially began.

For the Warriors at home in this game, the starters are Bogut, David Lee, Harrison Barnes, Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry.

The Lakers' starters for this game are center Howard, power forward Yi Jianlian, small forward Carter, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, and point guard Nash.

In this game, the Lakers are all in order.

Although Iverson and Maizi are beside Du Kang in suits and leather shoes, they can take off their suits and play at any time.

Now Iverson and Maizi take off their suits and play the game has become one of the most beautiful scenery of the Lakers.

Howard of the Los Angeles Lakers won the jump ball for the Lakers at the start of the game.

The Lakers were attacking, and Du Kang observed the Warriors' defensive formation from the sidelines.

The Warriors' defensive formation is to shrink the defense and give the Lakers a chance to fire from the outside.

In the first attack of the Lakers, Nash faced Curry's harassment and hit the ball to Kobe. Kobe faced Klay Thompson, who was defending half a step, and fired directly from outside the three-point line.

Strike the iron with a bang!
The basketball fell into Yi Jianlian's hands 7 feet away.

Facing David Lee's defense, Yi Jianlian succeeded in a close-range jumper.

"Du, the Warriors' Bogut and David Lee's rebounds are very good. This game is not easy to play."

Kobe's three-pointer just now was definitely not a booster, it was simply a shot when there was space, and he was absolutely not cowardly.

The rebound was also lucky to fall into the hands of the United Arab Emirates, rather than the successful rush of the United Arab Emirates.

After all, Mark Jackson is playing a shrinking defense. If he can't protect the backcourt rebounds, he will definitely be blown up.

This season, the Warriors averaged 3 more rebounds per game than their opponents, and the rebound protection was very good.

Looking back, it was the Warriors' turn to attack.

The Lakers' current defense is actually shrinking.

Now that the overall three-point shooting ability is not very strong, shrinking defense is actually the choice of most teams with big centers, which saves energy and has good results.

It would be even better if your players have high tactical literacy and then play a zone defense.

Of course, shrinking is shrinking, Curry and Clay must be chasing.

Nash defends Curry, Kobe chases Clay.

Curry didn't even call a screen against Nash's defense. With a fancy back dribble and another acceleration, he broke through Nash.

Finally, under Nash's pursuit, the emergency stop shot from 19 feet away ended the attack.

Mark Jackson next to Curry's attack had a cerebral hemorrhage.

Fake!

Take another step, or drop the ball to the basket and die!
Clang!
David Lee pointed out the offensive rebound, and Klay Thompson caught the ball from outside the three-point line. He didn't care about Kobe who was catching up, and the shot was just a throw.

Mark Jackson, who had a cerebral hemorrhage just now, almost fainted this time.

Fake!

I beg you two, accept this kind of offensive play that tests the heart of the head coach!
He looked at Mark Jackson, who was dancing at the beginning of the game.

Du Kang was all happy.

This is the truest embodiment of the opposite style of the head coach and the player.

In the current NBA, with Curry and Klay Thompson playing like this, without the protection of Jerry West, it is estimated... few head coaches can tolerate them.

"Darwin, do you feel that the two guards of the Warriors have a black mamba heart?"

Ham nodded.

That's really it!
It's just that these two are the long-range offensive version of Kobe!

However, like Kobe, the offensive threat visible to the naked eye is extremely high!
"That's why Jerry West is willing to protect them and expect so much from them."

Tsk tsk, two Kobe-type players with a solid 40% three-point shooting percentage!

If it really grows up like Jerry West expected, this warrior might not be invincible.

Clay just hit the iron with Kobe's three-pointer.

Howard protected the backcourt rebound, and Nash turned around and returned a ball in front of Curry in the way Curry did just now.

Nash made a mid-range pull-up jumper from 16 feet away and hit it!
4 is better than 0!

Under Kobe's pursuit, Klay Thompson jumped up and passed the ball to find David Lee under the basket. David Lee faced the defense of the UAE, and his 3-foot hook was directly blocked by the UAE.

"Ok?"

Popovich, who was watching the game in front of the TV, froze for a moment when he saw the ball.

"YI's defense...he doesn't care about it anymore?"

Popovich was surprised.

He has studied each of these important players of the Lakers.

Yi Jianlian is extremely talented, especially offensive talent, but because he has played too few NBA games, many of his habits in the game are not good.

Let's put it this way, players who have not played in the playoffs will not be trusted no matter how good they perform in the regular season.

It is because some things need to be experienced.

And Yi Jianlian, let alone the playoffs in his previous career, didn't even play a full regular season.

It is very normal for such a player to drift easily on the court and lack confidence and composure in the game.

But what happened to the offensive rebound and the block just now?

"How did Coach D do it?"

McGrady suddenly learned how Duncan played.

Yi Jianlian suddenly became calm and calm.

Coach D, how did you do it?
On TV, the Lakers attack, Nash and Yi Jianlian pick and roll, Yi Jianlian, who was about to be removed, suddenly explodes and accelerates, gets rid of David Lee, goes straight to the basket, Nash's ball arrives, Yi Jianlian arrives, and Yi Jianlian's goal is 7 feet away Pass the ball, close-range jumper is successful.

6 is better than 0!

"..."

Seeing the cooperation between Nash and Yi Jianlian, Popovich was dumbfounded.

"Are you sure it's Yi, not Amal?"

Looking at this Yi Jianlian, Popovich suddenly remembered the Stoudemire who beat Duncan and the Spurs.

He can be 100% sure.

The tacit understanding between Yi and Nash is definitely not so good!

And he also watched the previous few Lakers games, and Yi and Nash did not cooperate a few times.

So, how did the two develop such a tacit understanding?

On the court, it was the Warriors' turn to attack again.

Eight seconds after Yi Jianlian scored, Curry once again made a simple breakthrough and made an emergency stop jumper from 8 feet.

Clang!
Curry once again made a two-pointer from a long distance.

"Du, I feel that Curry wanted to shoot a three-pointer, but why did he change his shooting rhythm and deliberately shoot a two-pointer?"

Du Kang glanced at Ham unexpectedly.

Alright, I can actually see this.

"That's because Mark Jackson definitely doesn't want him to shoot too many three-pointers, but he's not used to shooting mid-range shots. In the end, just like Iverson, he chose to guess one step from the three-point line."

After Clifford finished explaining, Du Kang smiled and nodded.

Curry's long-distance two-point shots accounted for as high as 30%, which is a compromise.

Mark Jackson didn't allow him to shoot too many threes.

Curry himself doesn't like shooting mid-range shots very much.

Then shoot from a distance.

This kind of compromise shot is actually like completing a task. I completed a few mid-range two-point shots that Mark Jackson asked for in this game, and Mark Jackson didn't care about me throwing three-pointers for the rest.

Therefore, Curry will appear very anxious.

And it's not just Curry who's been pressured to make mid-range shots.

The same goes for other Warriors players.

4 minutes after the start of the game.

Curry is shooting long-range two-pointers, Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes are all shooting long-range two-pointers.

Then with the help of Howard and Yi Jianlian of the Lakers, coupled with the shrinkage of Kobe, Carter and Nash.

The Warriors didn't score a single point.

There are 8 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter.

The score on the court was 10-0.

The Warriors were beaten 10-0 in the opening game.

The Warriors fans at the scene were stunned.

Although I know that there is a gap between my team and the Lakers.

But it shouldn't be like this.

Otherwise, the popularity of Warriors players is sluggish now, and Curry, the Warriors boss, is actually one-third of Harden's popularity.

The main reason is that now the Warriors fans do not recognize Curry as the boss of the team, so they will not canvass for him during the All-Star voting, and they will not usually brag about Curry, Clay and other Warriors fans online to increase their popularity.

Now this Warrior, although it has been recognized by Jerry West, has not yet been recognized by Warriors fans.

This Warriors team needs an exciting achievement to change the fans' impression of them.

Obviously, the messy style of play in the first few minutes of this game is definitely not enough.

The compromise between players and coaches really made fans at a loss.

"Du, if the Warriors are only this strong, how did they rank seventh in the Western Conference?"

Now the west is a fierce battle zone.

Ham finished speaking in a daze, and looked at Du Kang.

Du Kang didn't speak, just smiled.

Hamm looked at Clifford next to him again.

Clifford frowned.

"Darwin, do you know what it means to run out of money?"

"..."

Darwin Hamm, dumbfounded again, what does this have to do with stock trading?
"Have you finally completed the task of the head coach for tonight's game? Is the real game finally about to start?"

In front of the TV, Popovich had a smile on his face.

The Warriors, who even looked up to him, are about to appear!
With 8 minutes and 14 seconds left in the first quarter, Klay Thompson received a pass from Curry, caught a jumper from 18 feet, made a hit, and scored the first point of the game for the Warriors.

2 is better than 10!

With 7 minutes and 47 seconds left in the first quarter, Klay Thompson received a support ball from David Lee under the basket, pocketed it, faced Kobe's defense, and hit a three-pointer.

5 is better than 10!

With 7 minutes and 17 seconds left in the first quarter, Curry received an assist from Klay Thompson, went outside the three-point line, faced Nash's defense, and hit a three-pointer from 23 feet away.

8 is better than 12!

In less than 1 minute, the Warriors directly scored 8 points relying on the shots of Curry and Klay Thompson!
This terrifying scoring explosiveness.

Hamm, who was still questioning the Warriors' seventh place in the Western Conference on the sidelines, was shocked.

"I'm afraid Coach D is also scared to be stupid now?"

Popovich looked at the TV curiously, and the live broadcast of the TV also focused on Du Kang very interestingly.

Then, Popovich and the audience in front of the TV who were curious about Du Kang's expression at this time were dumbfounded.

"Coach D is smiling and applauding the Lakers players. They have no problem defending, it's just that Curry and Klay Thompson made hits."

"This kind of flow is very easy to break the opponent's rhythm. The Warriors' style of play is not common in the current NBA. Generally, experienced head coaches and players may not be able to cope with it, but Coach D's choice is very correct. "

In fact, Du Kang simulated the game against the Warriors for the first time.

In the first quarter, the Lakers' offense was overwhelmed by the Warriors, and they were blinded throughout the first half.

Lost 45 to 63 at halftime by 18 points.

The Lakers have indeed never seen Curry and Klay Thompson play like this.

No matter who your defender is outside the three-point line, they will come up in waves, and everyone will be fooled.

Then, after figuring out the Warriors' style of play, Du Kang didn't simulate the second time.

He said, simulate a game once!
Not the desired result, neither saved nor simulated.

Be sure to unlock at least one seal for Maizi before the playoffs against the Spurs!
In order to save MP, Du Kang really worked hard.

Can the Lakers withstand the Warriors Clay and Curry's three-axes in this game?
Du Kang was also very curious.

Because the styles of the players and coaches do not match, Curry and Thompson's three-axes are not systematic, but just a flash of inspiration, so they are three-axes, powerful, but not lasting.

After Du Kang stood up and applauded, Kobe, who had been facing the provocations of Curry and Clay, two juniors on the court, who was about to throw against them, quickly calmed down.

Clay's shots really don't look at the defender, even if he throws it, it really stimulates the defensive player if he throws it in.

It would be a tragedy if Kobe was really stimulated to shoot with Klebe.

The Warriors have a good rebound position and if they can't make a shot, then it's really gone.

Then Klay and Curry made layups with their hands, and they hit the basket.

But you are there with the iron on your head.

Isn't that just a wave?
It can only be said that Kobe, who has followed Du Kang on the railway again, is indeed different from the previous Kobe.

Kobe didn't simply throw it at Klay.

After hitting the ball to Yi Jianlian at the basket, Kobe ran to the basket, and then came out like Clay just now. After Howard helped to hang Clay, he received a pass from Yi Jianlian 17 feet away. Yang hit.

14 to 8, Kobe's two points helped the Lakers stabilize the rhythm.

After hitting two points, Kobe and Yi Jianlian clapped hands.

Then he looked at the young man Klay Thompson.

Great!

It actually gave him the illusion that he fell in love with Hamilton back then.

Haven't played a game like this for a long time!

On the court, the Lakers players seem to have re-acquainted with these young Warriors players.

On the sidelines, Du Kang looked at Mark Jackson, who was squatting there in despair, and suddenly felt a little bad taste.

Seeing the smile on Du Kang's face at this time, Hamm and Clifford next to him were frightened and took half a step back.
On the court, Klay Thompson received an assist from Curry, 26 feet away, and hit a 3-pointer again.

14 is better than 11!

The Warriors are still continuing their short-term explosive output.

For a team with two insides like the Lakers, it is impossible for the defense to pinch Curry and Klay Thompson on the outside. It is naturally impossible to prevent them from throwing the ball by defending them alone.

The young Kobe may still be able to catch Clay. Now Kobe is actually very good at being able to catch Clay.

And Kobe's balls are all in place.

Klay Thompson can make shots, not because Kobe is not good at defense, but because Klay Thompson is good.

"He's no ordinary shooter!"

Ordinary shooters, no matter how accurate they are usually, will be iron when defending.

That's what Novak is.

But Klay Thompson...

Du Kang felt it.

"The more excited he is, the more accurate he is!"

Du Kang on the sidelines waved Carter and Kobe Nash over.

"Vince, you're playing against Klay Thompson and Bryant in this game, you're playing against Curry in this game, call Curry crazily, Steve, you're on the sidelines as a shooter."

After Du Kang whispered a few words in the ear of the three, he patted the back of the three and let the three continue the competition.

"What is Coach D telling Kobe and the others?"

The three commentators of TNT were puzzled.

Soon, their doubts were resolved.

The Lakers attack.

Kobe held the ball and Nash picked and rolled, switching Curry to the front.

Kobe sat and Curry kept pushing in from the three-point line.

Seeing this scene, the Warriors fans at the scene couldn't help it.

"Fuck, this style of play is too brutal!"

In the exclamation of the Warriors fans in the audience.

After Kobe flew to Curry, he turned around, leaned back, and made a mid-range shot!

You two little guys screwed up our mentality with three points.

We use the old guy's stuff to mess with your mentality, isn't that a problem?
Seeing their boss being bullied by Kobe sitting like this, the Warriors fans at the scene were really silent.

Originally, most Warriors fans did not agree that this Warriors team could lead the team to revival in the future.

Seeing this scene now, I am even more speechless.

Next, there is something that makes Warriors fans even more speechless.

After Kobe sat Curry.

The Lakers attacked in the next round, and Curry's Carter named Curry after a pick-and-roll with Nash.

Pretty much the same recipe.

The difference is.

After Carter sat down on Curry, he didn't turn around and lean back, but made an accelerated breakthrough and went straight to the basket!

Seeing this scene, both Curry and Thompson jumped up excitedly.

Especially Curry, he didn't feel like he had just been ravaged at all.

"Carter is about to dunk!"

Facing Carter who was rushing straight over, Bogut disdained.

Do you think you are still a UFO?
Bogut stepped forward and opened his hands.

He felt that this was enough.

but!

"The UFO is taking off!"

Seeing Carter flying up, the Warriors fans at the scene almost gasped.

And the three commentators of TNT stood up directly.

Facing a big center, he took off directly like this!

Even in the NBA, such a dunk method is rare, and such a fierce dunk method is rare!
In fact, not only in the NBA, even in the entire basketball world, there are not many dunks like this.

And there is no doubt that the most famous player for this dunk is Carter!

That king dunk general who has both beauty, strength and explosiveness!
"Carter will teach you what a real dunk is!"

Seeing Carter flying higher and higher in front of him, Bogut, who had been disdainful just now, was dumbfounded.

I'm about to get fucked hard!

this is!
"Death button!"

"This is the button of death for UFOs!"

Thirteen years ago, the 13-year-old Carter, the death button on the rider, was going to be reproduced by the 23-year-old Carter in the NBA? !
Watching this scene, Durant in front of the TV was so excited that he was about to cry!

In the Mavericks playoffs in 2011, he dunked Haywood, which is the death dunk of his idol Carter.

It's just that he didn't dare to ride hard, but relied on his long arms to avoid riding.

And Carter this!
"This is the real button of death!"

Clang!
Carter, who was riding on Bogut, pursed his lips, and smashed the basketball in his hand into the hoop!

silence!

There was a bang!
The entire Oracle Arena seemed to explode!
All the cameras and cameras on the scene were clicking.

Listen to these cameras, the sound of taking pictures.

Bogut felt his head explode.

My career... over...

After a moment.

On and off the court, all the Lakers players rushed to Carter, who was riding Bogut with one hand on the rim.

Among the group of people rushing towards Carter, there were actually two Warriors players, Curry and Klay Thompson.

The expressions on the faces of the two were as excited as the Lakers players.

We're here to protect Bogut!

We are definitely not going to touch Carter's thigh!

"UFO! UFO! The death button descends on the NBA!"

"This is 36-year-old Carter?"

"No, this is Coach D's 36-year-old Carter!"

"Coach D revives the UFO and reproduces the button of death!"

In front of the TV, listening to the crazy shouts of the TNT trio.

The audience in front of the TV felt like they were going crazy.

In fact, at this very moment, audiences watching this game all over the world are bursting into unbelievable cheers and shouts.

on the field.

Mark Jackson on the sidelines looked at the Curry and Klay Thompson who surrounded Carter with the Lakers players on the court. At this time, Mark Jackson's head was covered.

And the assistant coach Karl Malone next to him was even more confused.

"Mark, this is the Carter you arranged before the game to focus on? This is the Carter you said, the knee is no longer good?"

At this moment, North Carolina Flying Eagle Harris Barnes, who was going to perform the card abuse task in this game, was already trembling.

"As long as he can fly, there are no eagles in the sky of North Carolina, only UFOs!"

……

……

"Du, are you unhappy?"

"..."

Happy is happy.

but……

Du Kang looked at Curry and Klay Thompson who joined the Lakers celebration team at this time...

Didn't I want to mess with the mentality of the two of them?

what is this?
……

……

　This is the third update today.
