Chapter 496 496. Why Ask Them

On the morning of the back-to-back game against the Knicks, Liu Ren came to the Toyota Center, the training facility, as early as the training day.

Today is not a training day because there is a game tonight.Since the middle of the season, the Lakers have fewer and fewer training days. The main purpose is to preserve the physical fitness of the players and avoid the sensational Pat Riley in the 80s when the playoffs are about to start. The entire main lineup was almost useless, several players were collectively injured, and when the finals came, the main lineup was all reimbursed, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired due to injury.

Liu Ren has been thinking hard since yesterday's game. Why can't Nick Young and Korver break through the defense?
This has been several times!This has happened several times since the All-Star break.

The same tactics, the same opponent, the opponent also defends the same way, why?
Liu Ren arrived at the Toyota Center at 08:30, and sure enough there was another guy who arrived earlier.

Bryant was still the first to arrive at the Toyota Center.

Since the middle of the season, the Lakers trainers have intentionally reduced Liu Ren's training volume, and he is not allowed to train too early in the season, so that he can get more rest time for the fatigue accumulated in the long season.

But for Kobe, the Lakers management, coaching staff, and trainers can't control it.

But Kobe is not stupid, he didn't overtrain himself, he just got used to coming so early, and he couldn't change it for a while.

Bryant, who came to the Toyota Center early, was discussing the playoffs a month later with D'Antoni and Bickerstaff, who also came early.

Kobe seems very happy today, after all, he won another nine consecutive victories, and because he didn't play much yesterday, he also got the chance to play back to back today.

Kobe was very interested in discussing the playoffs with D'Antoni. He didn't mention anything about yesterday's poor performance. D'Antoni didn't say anything about yesterday's main lineup being hanged. After walking around, they just said hello and nodded.

Liu Ren was very puzzled. Could it be that the coaching staff and the scumbag boss didn't care at all about the difficulties encountered in the recent game?
Just ask Kobe why you played so badly yesterday, why are you so happy today?
Liu Ren thought about it for a while and rejected this beautiful idea. He himself didn't perform very well yesterday, and the two cheapskates would definitely hurt each other when they got together.

And discussing this kind of thing with someone who is also not performing well, it seems that there is no solution. At most, the two of them feel sorry for themselves together.

However, there are those who perform poorly, and there are also those who perform well!

McCollum, Liu Ren, Kobe, and Green are all representative figures who did not perform well yesterday.

And Nick Young, Korver, and even Henry and Thackeray next to the drinking fountain played well.

Ask Henry and Thackeray... Forget it, Liu Ren guesses that they don't even know why they are not afraid of the eagle's defense.

So Liu Ren waited until Nick Young arrived at [-] o'clock in the morning to ask about how he dealt with the Eagles' defense yesterday.

"The defense against the Hawks yesterday? Let me think about it, nothing special! They just defend like that, and I shoot like that! Anyway, Hassan and Giannis can steal the Hawks with rebounds, so I just keep shooting." Nick Young thought Liao wanted to answer.

"..."

Liu Ren felt a headache when he heard this answer!
Amid Nick Yang's bewildered expression, Liu Ren turned around and left.

"I'm stupid, I'm a pig, why would I ask Nick Young, a brainless guy, I'm a pig..." Liu Ren finally realized that Henry and Thackeray didn't know why they were able to play so well, Does Nick Young know this guy?The three of them clearly belonged together!
"Forget it, I'll watch the video." Liu Ren felt that it was too unreliable to ask his teammates, and he had never heard of a star who couldn't play well by himself and asked other players to solve it. This kind of thing still had to be done by himself .

"Maybe it's just like what Nick Young said, maybe he's not afraid of that kind of defense by nature?... Bah, when was he ever afraid of defense, James, Tony Allen defended him and he just shot directly!"

Liu Ren greeted the editor and borrowed the video room, wanting to take a good look at the comparison between when he played badly against the Eagles yesterday and when Nick Young, Korver and others played well.

Seeing that Liu Ren had something to do, the editor immediately came to adjust the video for him.

What is the greatest sense of accomplishment as an editor?
There is nothing more important than the results of one's work being valued by others, and by the best players of one's own team.

In fact, most of the time, only the coach will see what the editor edits. Most of the time, the work of the editor is boring, and most of the edited videos are not watched by anyone.

But they have to edit all the videos that should be edited in theory, maybe when the management and coaching staff suddenly want to watch, if there is no clip that really exists and they want, or wait too long , then the editor is not far from get out of class.

Liu Ren watched those clips where he played badly.

The Eagles' defense is really good, but the Lakers' tactics using the Eagles' defense are also good. Green, Gasol, Antetokounmpo and other insiders all have good opportunities.

But Green and Gasol didn't feel good in the mid-to-long range yesterday, and Antetokounmpo doesn't have much outside shooting ability. At least it will be difficult to practice this year.

And Kobe, like Liu Ren, is a key target to be defended. Kobe has changed a lot in the past two years. He is no longer so deliberately obsessed with difficult shots. He didn't have many good scoring opportunities last night. A few missed shots are also within the scope of testing his hand. .

However, Liu Ren felt a little disappointed when he saw Kobe's style of play.

Kobe is really old!And this guy is a face-saving person. If he can maintain high efficiency, he will try to change as much as possible.

And the original Kobe who played poorly in the last two years was that the team was too bad, and he was forced to play so badly.

But that's not the point, because most of the bad shots happened to him, Liu Ren experienced it himself, and the impression was very deep.

The point is why Nick Young can play so well?

Liu Ren opened the video of Nick Young's game.

Liu Ren held the monitor, watching back and forth...

"There's nothing wrong with it! It's still the same Nick Young! He doesn't play very well, and his shot selection is still so chic. Look at the shot point, heck, he's still so... wavelike?"
