Chapter 974 What about the pressure of public opinion?(1/2)

Are the Lakers failing? Is it difficult to lead this team? - Los Angeles Times.

The style of play should change! Small ball and run-and-gun won't work in Los Angeles! - Lakers Nation.

20+20? Maybe he is just a data brush! - ESPN Henry Abbott.

Building a team with this blue-collar team is the biggest mistake and stupidity of the Lakers! The glory of the Lakers will fall like this! - ESPN's number one "tang black" Brian Windhorse.

I have long said that he is not good! Now it is proven that I am right, right? LeBron is the strongest athlete in the world! ——ESPN Channel 2 host and former NBA player Jay Williams.

Of course, there are people who defend Tang Qian, but when his record is unfavorable, any defense is detrimental.

There are also many people on the Internet who have begun to slander Tang Qian:

Look, what were we talking about about the great emperor before? What about now? The bullshit emperor?

Tang Qian attacks too much! He should pass the ball more!

Tang Qian is too obsessed with rebounding! He should help his teammates block positions more!

Tang Qian likes to block shots so much! He should defend more!

You can't win by focusing on data! Data brushers will always be the losers!

Tang Qian scoffed at these words. Since his last "heart problem" was revealed by Kobe last year and he figured it out, nothing can affect him now. Attacking too much? How can Kobe improve his offensive ability without attacking?

If Maddie, James and Jordan had never been more offensive or practiced too much, could they have reached the peak of their scoring ability? Do you want me to be a blue-collar man all his life? Let me tell you, there is no way! As for rebounding and blocking shots? In addition to me, this Lakers team also has

Who can get so many rebounds? Who else can exert such great power in the penalty area?

A group of Internet keyboard warriors who are useless but only know how to type on the keyboard and become trolls!

However, if you are sprayed down by them, it is because you are not capable enough and your mentality is not enough, so...

In a word, use winning to solve problems! If you win, everything will disappear. Even if you don't like yourself, you have to "sing praises" to yourself! If you don't like yourself, you have to "patronize" yourself! Keyboard warriors are essentially the ones who have the most wall-to-wall skills.

It's grassy, ​​isn't it?

Don't bother with it at all! Just win the game against them and slap them in the face!

Doesn’t Durant like to exchange comments with netizens on Twitter? It’s okay. If you win, you are the boss!

Of course, you want to win by yourself, not...hehehe.

On the eve of the game against the Nuggets, the Lakers held a team meeting. In this meeting, D'Antoni talked about everyone's problems, and everyone also expressed their views on the future of the team. This kind of

Heart-to-heart communication is a very important thing in an NBA team. Who knew that when the Bulls were led by Jackson, they often performed some mysterious "tribal rituals" in the locker room and on the eve of games? Any team needs to re-establish itself after a period of time.

Communication and linking are necessary.

After all, things like "O.K Group" are still rare.

However, there are still some issues that have not been adopted, and that is Jimmy Butler's opinion. He suggested that the team increase the fluidity of the ball, reduce fast breaks and defensive counterattacks, and focus more on defense. After saying this, it almost means whether there is any

It is impossible for D'Antoni to adopt or like the truth. Because small ball and running and gunning are the basis of his "seven seconds or less system". If you want to overthrow the foundation of my coaching, how is this possible? No matter what you say.

If it doesn't make sense, it's impossible! Unless the team changes!

Then he also wanted the team to reduce the attack on the inside, which was also ignored, because Tang Qian's attack on the inside would not only not decrease, but also increase. He is necessary for leveling up, and there is absolutely no way to delay it. Otherwise

The real loss is himself. Moreover, he does not think that he is not a major offensive strength of the team now. Jimmy Butler's view of himself is just an old perspective. He just feels that he is still a blue-collar worker, so

It's not worth entrusting him with the heavy responsibility on the offensive end.

To put it bluntly, there is absolutely nothing to see in this competition.

Didn’t it take me several seasons to completely establish my reputation as the No. 1 blue-collar player in the NBA? It is indeed not something that can be changed in a dozen games to change these Yankees who have long had prejudices and fixed mindsets. Besides, there are also many people

He barely reached the point of averaging 25+ points per game in one season, but quickly fell back, so...

There is no need to talk about it! What I want to do is not just to be the first blue-collar worker.

In the 14th game of the regular season, the Lakers played against the Denver Nuggets. This team changed its head coach. The current head coach is Brian Shaw, the descendant of the triangle offense known as the "Zen Master" faction. But Brian Shaw's

Coaching ability is very problematic, and facts have proven this. Except for the "Zen Master" himself, even the founder of the triangle offense cannot truly make the triangle offense invincible. This is really an embarrassing thing. Now Fisher

I also worked under "Zen Master" as the nominal head coach, but he also had a terrible record. So the facts have proved that the triangle offense, no matter how much you praise it or how you criticize it, it will not work.

It’s just that the “Zen Master” can get away with it by himself.

Others can't.

This is the case with Brian Shaw. After leading the Nuggets to an average record last year, this year... it's even worse.

And you have to know that in the era of George Karl, the Nuggets were one of the pseudo-powerhouses in the Western Conference. Their record has always been excellent. The year they left office, they even had an excellent record of fourth place in the third conference in the Western Conference. Once Bryant was replaced

In Xiao's hands, he immediately fell to the 11th place in the Western Conference, and the threshold for the playoffs was no longer visible.

So there is no doubt that the Lakers suppressed this chaotic team throughout the game. Tang Qian found it funny every time he saw them running the triangle system without any embarrassment. Without this diamond,

Then don't take this porcelain job? This group of people is playing a triangle offense, and it's difficult even if the "Zen Master" comes. Not to mention a Brian Shaw?

Without a super end point, what kind of triangle offense do you play? If you just want to play "Winter's version of the triangle system", which is what Jordan calls average basketball, equal opportunity basketball, it is even more meaningless. Because the rhythm of the NBA game is far away

It is faster than the NCAA, and the time for an attack is much shorter than the NCAA. Therefore, the "Winter Version of the Triangle System" implemented at the University of Kansas runs too slowly. Basically, it has not been fully developed. It is about to reach 24 seconds. Then

A spanking?

As for playing the "Zen Master's version of the triangle system", who do you want to implement the "superstar singles" strategy?

Are there such people in the Nuggets team now? Wilson Chandler? Ty Lawson? Or Kenneth Faried? Impossible.

Therefore, inviting Brian Shaw to come here is a huge mistake, because this team does not have the soil and internal environment to play the triangle system. Furthermore, Brian Shaw himself does not have the "Zen Master" ability to bond the whole team.

As for his ability, he was still very good as an assistant coach and very capable, but when he was promoted to the head coach, his fatigue immediately showed.

In this game, the Lakers scored 122 points and completely defeated the Nuggets. This victory can be regarded as temporarily suppressing some of the recent public pressure. However, with 9 wins and 5 losses, they are still half a distance away from eighth in the Western Conference.

The difference in wins.

In the early morning of that day, the new round of regular season MVPs had been updated. Although Tang Qian re-entered the list, he was only ranked tenth. Regarding these, many people from ESPN and Sports Illustrated had only one sentence, that is,

Performance determines everything.

Without record support, no matter how good the data is, it is useless.

They also cited the example of the season when Kobe Bryant scored 35+ points, but still couldn't win the MVP, and couldn't even be ranked in the top three.

At present, this still makes sense. After all, the rankings have been calculated in this way for many years. But I never thought that in the near future, they would slap themselves in the mouth and become another measure.

.I won’t mention this much for now.

In the fifteenth regular season game, the Lakers defeated the Grizzlies again. However, Gasol missed the game due to the flu, so they won. Many people did not think that the Lakers relied on their own strength. Instead, they took advantage of the situation.

This side is more likely.

With 10 wins and 5 losses, and 2 consecutive victories, the Lakers have squeezed into the top eight in the Western Conference. However, in the Western Conference, this kind of victory is extremely unsafe, because let alone ninth place, all the way to the 11th place, they are only

There is a win difference of 1 game with the Lakers. The twelfth place is 1 and a half games. The 13th place is 2 games. Therefore, the position of the Lakers is not safe at all.

Sitting extremely uncomfortable.

But what the outside world doesn’t know is that the Lakers are slowly getting together and becoming more and more integrated. Jeremy Lin, who was a little restrained in his leadership at the beginning, has now begun to regain his confidence. Together with Tang Qian and Mike De

Anthony's full support is given to him, but his "submissiveness" in the Rockets is gradually fading.

Not to mention recovering to Linsanity level, at least he is better than the Rockets, that's for sure.

Isn't there a famous saying in the NBA: If a point guard can't play well in D'Antoni's hands, he won't be able to play well in anyone else's hands.

In addition, this team is now vigorously running and gunning, and Jeremy Lin's data has also increased. Compared with last year's 12+2+4 data, it has improved by more than a step. As of now, averaging 15+1+8 per game is no problem. Rebounds

It doesn't matter if there are fewer balls. The most important attributes, offense and assists per game, have improved. That is the biggest gain.

Moreover, as the team as a whole becomes more and more tacit, his data still has room for improvement.

After all, Jeremy Lin has proven that he is very suitable for Mike D'Antoni's system.

Although the assist-to-turnover ratio is still poorly controlled, the Lakers don't care about it now, which has allowed his biggest shortcoming to be covered up, and instead he can play more confidently.

Jeremy Lin finally broke out in this game. Although his opponent also got 25+11 data, he also got 26+15 data, which broke his personal single-game assist record. And above

The first time I got so many assists was in New York and in 2012. But the same thing is that it was also in the hands of Mike D'Antoni.

No one on the Lakers can run D'Antoni's system on his behalf, which is actually the biggest opportunity in his life.

If he is not sure, his career will be like this.

The Lakers can be said to have collectively blossomed in this game. The Timberwolves are currently the bottom team in the league, with a record of 3 wins and 11 losses, which fully shows their weakness. With the departure of the "new Wolf King" Kevin Love, who was cultivated with great difficulty,

, the team plummeted directly.

However, there is also a more classic scene in this game, that is, Andrew Wiggins, the new No. 1 pick who is not afraid of tigers.

This guy relies on his superhuman physical fitness and excellent elasticity. Well, how outstanding is it? The physical test data shows that the running jump exceeds 112CM!!! And he himself has a height of 203CM! This elasticity, looking at the entire NBA

His history is all at the strongest level! McGrady and Kobe are not as good as him, not just a little bit worse, but a lot worse! So in his first season, he mainly focused on physical fitness. This is normal, basically his physical fitness is better

All the players in the world were physically weak when they were young. Including Jordan, Kobe, McGrady, etc., so from this point of view, there is no big problem.

But the problem came in the third quarter. He had a ball to dunk on Tang Qian. He used the pick-and-roll to successfully throw away the defender. Then he accelerated with a big stride and rushed into the Lakers' free throw line.

Then, without any hesitation, he raised one leg, bent his body like a bow, and hit the Lakers' basket with a ball with his right hand.

Even though it was the Staples Center, Bill McDonald and Stu Lantz couldn't help but be surprised:
