I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 476 Except Girls and Airplanes

Howard's character is similar to that of domestic fans in his previous life.

His optimism on the outside is actually trying to cover up his inner inferiority and fragility...

I don't know where the inferiority complex comes from, and I don't know where the second brother is weak. This guy looks carefree on the outside, but in fact, he is very concerned about face, dignity, and what others think of him.

in contrast.

O'Neal is also optimistic, and O'Neal is also funny.

But O'Neal isn't going to miss a free throw in the Finals and smirk at the camera.

That is the minimum rigor for the finals.

O'Neal will only use his mountain ax to carve out three consecutive championships for the Lakers while complaining about the opponent's shamelessness and anger.

Comparable to the four major centers?

Howard is still not up to the standard!
Xu Xuan has seen a video of O'Neal and James "fighting dance" in the All-Star Game. Howard was also beside him at the time, but can he do O'Neal's moves?
No, he won't, he won't cover his mouth and giggle, but actually, does he want to?

He wants to too, but he cares more, if he does, he will XXXX
He cares too much about what the outside world thinks of him.

It's kind of like a kid, to be honest.

When Warcraft can get rid of this, when he will really grow up.
Because of the success of the "cracking tactic", the Lakers finally defeated the Atlanta Hawks at home by 108 to 103, 5 points, won five consecutive victories, and maintained their unbeaten season record.

徐轩全场比赛出战32分钟，21投中10，其中三分7中4，罚球6中6，拿到了全场最高的30分、8助攻、5篮板、1抢断、2盖帽。

Except for him, the Lakers scored the most points with Nick Young's 18 points and Lu Wei's 17 points. In addition, Barnes, who started the game for the first time, scored 10 points, scoring in double digits.

Yi Jian played for 27 minutes in a row and only scored 7 points and 7 rebounds. It seemed that he was crushed by Warcraft.

It is also true that there is still a gap in strength between the two. Even if the Warcraft has a personality problem, but the strength is not a problem, especially when it comes to the basket, the Warcraft is very good at it.

For the Eagles, Rao was targeted by the audience, and Warcraft still scored the highest score in the team, 25 points, "0 assists", 12 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks.

Warcraft's strength at the basket is still there. As long as you give him the ball, basically no accidents, he can give you a good answer in every game.

But the Eagles want more than that, stats?

Sometimes it's not that important, winning comes first!
At the end of the moment after the game, Eagles head coach Budenholzer bombarded the Lakers for their shameless use of "cracking tactics" in an interview, "They made the game fragmented, they are not Come play!"

Regarding Budenholzer's bombardment, Lakers coach Frank Vogel responded jokingly: "The Eagles can also use the "cut Xu tactic" or "cut easy". Just now, Ci Shiping was complaining to me why no one fouled him, which made his "skills useless", so we welcome the Eagles to attack."

The reporters were all amused by Frank Dainty Vogel, "Cut Ci"?
I'm afraid you're looking for death. Do you believe it or not? If you dare to slash him, he can hammer out your brains?

This is of course a joke, Frank Vogel is extremely satisfied with the performance of the Lakers after the start of the game.

He originally thought that he would use a few defeats to wake up the players and adjust their way forward, but he didn't expect that under the leadership of Xu Xuan, this step was omitted.

Well, don't always think that losing is a bad thing. Losing a little more in the regular season is better than losing a little more in the playoffs.

Now the Lakers have won the start, not to mention that four of the five games were away games, including a back-to-back game, and the teams that won were all teams with "playoff potential". up.

With this tactic, all those who questioned his coming to the Lakers as the head coach should shut up.

Howard also accepted an interview after the game. He was quite satisfied with his performance in this game. He didn't think there was any problem with him. After being asked by reporters about free throws, he made it clear that the Lakers are a bunch of insidious little guys. People, they didn't take into account that he was once a "famous person of the Zijin Dynasty" and insulted him in every possible way.

Fortunately, his willpower is strong enough, and he survived so many tricks from the group of "killing thousands of knives", but still did not give in.

The reporters fell down.

It's enough!Dwight!
Also "Famous figure of the Zijin Dynasty?"

Also "insult?"

Still "didn't give in?"

Do you think we're all blind Dwight!
However, Howard also said that he and Xu Xuan "end their friendship", and the next time they meet will be the "time of life and death" for both parties!
Of the two, only one can survive!

He Dwight said it!
Xu Xuan also accepted an interview after the game, but the news did not spread so fast, Xu Xuan did not know Howard was so "outrageous".

"Yes, we have exchanges, yes, yes, I told Dwight, I like his free throw posture very much, it is very beautiful and natural." Xu Xuan spread his hands and saw the present The reporters all had expressions of disbelief, Xu Xuan said aggrievedly: "This is true, you can ask Dwight if you don't believe it, of course, he may have misinterpreted my meaning, but I really have great expectations sincerity."

"Xu, do you have anything to say about the Lakers' five-game winning streak?"

"I want to say a lot, but it's a pity that I have to wait until tomorrow if I want to finish it." Xu Xuan shrugged, enlivening the atmosphere: "Just a few simple words, that is, my teammates performed very well, and the coach also It’s great, I made a great strategy, of course, my boss and our management team, general manager Pelinka followed the whole process of this four-game away game. To be honest, I persuaded him to have a good chance. Anyway, it's useless for him to follow, it's better to go back, but he refused me."

The on-site reporters laughed again. They are also very comfortable interviewing players like Xu Xuan. They can talk and speak nicely. They like interviewing players like Xu Xuan very much.

Of course, in the end, nothing may be asked.

After the end of the four-game winning streak, everyone was very relaxed. After scolding the schedule arranged by the president of LJ in a uniform manner, Frank Vogel could not suppress the "homesickness" of the players that night.

Before finishing the physical therapy, a group of people headed by Ci Shiping shouted: "Except for girls and airplanes, there is nothing else that can satisfy me!"

Let’s not talk about the girl, the plane here does not refer to the “plane” that some people imagined, Ci Shiping means either to go home, or to go home.
He is the leader, followed by Matt Barnes, and the two are now like-minded, and they have joined together.

Ci Shiping once finished drinking with Barnes, and clamored to help him avenge his "hat revenge", even though Fisher was once his "close teammate", but after drinking Ci Shiping just forgot about it
Frank didn't stop it, in fact he couldn't stop it, but in the final choice, he still chose "airplane" instead of "girl". He might not arrive in Los Angeles until tomorrow morning when he went back that night, but it doesn't matter, these four away games After the fight, they have two days to rest, and they can take a day off first.

If he chose to go back that night, he would not be able to go out. Ci Shiping felt very disappointed, but he made a suggestion. He could pay for it himself and bring a girl back with him. Then the girl’s return ticket was also covered, including food, clothing, housing and transportation.

But Xu Xuan stopped him with a smile.

Frank couldn't speak too harshly, but Xu Xuan didn't have this concern, and he directly dispelled this guy's idea of ​​messing around with a few words.

There is no way, Ci Shiping respects Kobe very much, and Kobe treats Xu Xuan closer than his own son.
For example, Kobe is the old emperor, Xu Xuan is the young emperor, and Ci Shiping is the "loyal" Dongchangchanggong or the commander of Jinyiwei. Externally, the fierce comparison is to the emperor and the emperor's love. Heir, respectfully.

It can be regarded as one thing and one thing.

It was already late after the game, so I contacted the connecting flight. It was already one o'clock in the morning when I actually boarded the plane. snore.

Four consecutive away, both the players and the head coach are exhausted, and they urgently need to rest now.

After Xu Xuan fell asleep, he opened his eyes and checked the time at three o'clock in the morning.

It takes about 2-3 hours to fly from Atlanta to Los Angeles. Because it is a night flight, the flight is a bit slower, but two hours is almost here.

Xu Xuan patted his face lightly, he was also tired, that's why he fell asleep so quickly on the plane.

Even the habit of watching the video after each game was lost. This is not good. Xu Xuan cheered up and turned on the tablet in front of him. The video of tonight's game had already been downloaded on it.

Xu Xuan opened a bottle of Gatorade and watched the video while drinking.

After a while, Frank also woke up. After seeing Xu Xuan watching the video, he leaned over. The two chatted quietly while waiting for the plane to land.

"What's going on with this defense? The zone defense has blocked all positions, and the front line has put enough pressure, but Schroeder's pass has not encountered any challenge at all, and he easily found a gap. This is the front line. Not enough pressure? Or is the interior defense not keeping up with the rhythm?"

Well, this is a mistake made by the Lakers defending the Eagles in the first half of the game.

"This is a miscommunication between the outside line and the inside line." Xu Xuan immediately found the reason, and then pointed to a certain position in the video, "Look, we are zone defense, Kent Bazemore is standing here, originally belonged to Russell's defensive range, and then he moved laterally to the left. Russell just ran two steps casually, did not keep up, and transferred Bazemore to Ingram in the corresponding defensive area .”

"But there was an obvious communication problem here. Russell's footsteps stopped, and Ingram, who was supposed to guard this defensive area, did not post it in time; after sensing a loophole in the defensive area, Russell chased up again. But it intersects with Ingram's defensive zone, which creates a gap in Russell's defensive zone."

"here!"

"Ingram also noticed the gap, and he was ready to go forward to defend, but he still couldn't tell whether it was zone defense or matchup defense. Zmore caught -- and Howard made the catch without any confrontation at all."

Dazzling line analysis, straightforward and clear to complete the split of the entire defense.It is not difficult to analyze from the video replay after the game; but it is not so easy to be in the ever-changing game.

What's more, Xu Xuan is a person who experienced it first-hand. Not long after the game, many things are still echoing in his mind, so he can accurately describe the specific process.

Frank nodded in agreement. He was not a respondent. In fact, he and Xu Xuan had different ideas about tactics, but the confusion that Xu Xuan analyzed just now was not a problem at all in his opinion.

"So, for the next defense, Russell can be properly pressed at this point, and the division of defensive areas should be more clear. But this way the interior defense may be a little weaker." Frank said.

"Let's take a closer look at the defensive training tomorrow. You can't lose the perimeter defense. The best way is that Ingram can be sharper."

Xu Xuan also nodded and stopped talking.

Defense is not the strong point of the Lakers, but it is an essential thing for every team.

Overemphasis is not the strategy of the Lakers. For the starting team, Frank's minimum requirement is to look like that.

Don’t underestimate this, just take the mistakes above as an example. If Ingram and Russell cooperate better and have a better awareness, it is estimated that they will not be mistakes. This is not simply man-to-man and defensive failure. , but there are loopholes in the entire defense, which is what Frank pays attention to.

By the time the plane landed in Los Angeles, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and we had been flying for three hours.

After landing, the first thing most people do is to go home and sleep. Today is the rest time all day. They can have a good sleep and refresh their spirits.

Xu Xuan was no exception, he didn't even drive the car, he hailed a bus and drove home.

The driver was a black man who seemed very talkative. Xu Xuan asked him why he was still running the bus outside at this point. The black man in his 30s showed a sly and shy smile. He said he guessed Xu Xuan Waiting for someone to arrive at this time, his son is a Lakers fan, and he really wants a signed Lakers jersey as a birthday present, so he has been waiting here at the airport since the end of the game. Can you take a chance.
