Chapter 169 Problem Escalation

oh~~

Watching his players, D'Antoni felt very uncomfortable.

As the coach of the team, he already felt what the players meant for him.

This kind of thinking is understandable, but D'Antoni is somewhat difficult to accept.

When he chose to apply for the coach of the Lakers, how much he wanted to lead the team back to glory.

And with the joining of Howard and Nash, that desire is really stronger than ever.

and.

In order to make his style more suitable for the current Lakers, D'Antoni has been studying various defensive tactics day and night since the day he joined the team in order to make himself more perfect.

pity.

I don’t know whether it’s because the style has been completely locked, or D’Antoni is not a flexible person. Even though he has left countless defensive tactics in his mind, once he plays, his arrangements are full of offensive desires, and he completely forgets his original intention. .

Simply with the arrival of Nash and the factors that the Lakers have just stabilized, his flaws have not been magnified, but have received a lot of support.

however.

When there were some problems with his coaching ability in the preseason, everyone still didn't realize anything, and even he took it for granted that it was just a problem of running-in between players and his own tactics.

He once believed that as long as the real regular season starts, the Lakers will definitely return to the championship.

Sorry for the second time.

The start of the Lakers was not smooth, and even because of the problems between the players, the team's problems were gradually magnified and magnified geometrically.

Frustrated!

Lost!

Anxiety and other emotions invaded D'Antoni like a tide, but to become a very good coach, the adjustment of mentality is naturally very fast.

however.

The performance of the team caused him and the management to fail completely, and Jenny Bass, who was in charge of the team, put a lot of pressure on him at that time. If she couldn't reverse the state of the team, then she would consider some Very bad thing.

all in all.

After D'Antoni discovered the seriousness of the matter at this time, his mentality was already showing signs of collapse, and his spirit appeared a little trance.

Kobe and the others, who had no communication at all, were still preparing to play according to the previous arrangement after the whistle sounded.

But when Thackeray was about to follow Kobe, Howard suddenly stood up, held him down, and said, "Next is my time!"

The sudden situation made the atmosphere of the Lakers tense. Everyone else looked at Kobe and selectively ignored D'Antoni.

Kobe glanced at him blankly, didn't say anything, turned around and returned to the court.

Simultaneously.

Howard made a face at Kobe's back, patted the silent Thackeray, and said heartlessly: "Brother, watch your water dispenser, let me blow up that crazy one next." guy."

Speechless.

Howard's emotional intelligence was instantly exposed, and the other substitute players sighed frequently.

On the Rockets side, their state has not changed at all.

Even because of Qin Tao's fierce response before, the fighting spirit of the entire team was simply dazzling.

Back on the field.

Ken Moore keenly noticed the situation of the Lakers, he pondered for a while, and walked directly to Kobe.

look at him.

Ken Moore frowned and said: "Man, this is just a regular season, please restrain your headaches."

Kobe nodded reluctantly, he knew exactly what Ken Moore was going to say.

Seeing that Kobe didn't react too aggressively, Ken Moore patted him on the shoulder, and then ran behind the sideline.

take the ball.

Chris Duhon was very sensible, and he passed the ball immediately without waiting for Kobe to ask for the ball.

Come to the front court.

Kobe directly made a singles gesture to his teammates, and the space was gradually opened by them.

Insider.

Howard frowned slightly and withdrew from the restricted area, his displeasure written all over his big black face.

And Qin Tao, who was following him, was just ready to deal with this deadly black mamba at any time after noticing Kobe's sharp and expressionless look, without thinking in other directions at all.

But Harden, who was defending Kobe, smelled something dangerous.

Honestly.

As an offensive guard, or a position that keeps improving to the top ranks, Harden knows very well what kind of state his top peers will have if they get angry.

For example, in the current Kobe, when Harden faced him, it seemed that he was really fighting against a beast. It seemed that the opponent's breath could bring him a lot of pressure.

But Kobe was even more straightforward. As the center of gravity was lowered a little bit, the moment he looked up at Harden, his legs burst out with amazing strength.

Done!

Harden subconsciously shifted to the left, but Kobe rushed to the inside line like a gust of wind after a huge change of direction.

Seeing that Kobe broke through Harden in an instant, the defenders on the weak side of the Rockets immediately stepped forward and began to harass.

But how could Kobe, who has already entered the berserk mode, give them a chance?

I saw that he used his brisk pace and top-level coordination, and before Parsons came close, his body moved left and right for a while. At that time, he used a Kobe-style Eurostep, and reached the free throw line with two breaths.

collision!

The fierce confrontation made Qin Tao and Howard completely entangled, and their movements were escalating in a way visible to the naked eye.

Will there be a fight?

This is the only thought in the minds of all fans looking at the big screen right now.

But with Kobe's domineering one-handed dunk, the confrontation between Howard and Qin Tao came to an end.

snort!

Howard snorted expressionlessly, and his confidence returned a lot from the contest just now.

Qin Tao acted as if nothing had happened, he just patted his chest dissatisfied with himself, and then ran forward with his head buried.

Easy to fight again.

Tony Douglas obviously gained the trust of his teammates. No one asked him for the ball domineeringly, but he was allowed to steadily advance the frontcourt.

According to the tactical requirements, the Rockets immediately started running.

First, Harden and Parsons crossed from the bottom corners on both sides and ran towards the inside line, and then Qin Tao and Marcus Morris came up one after another.

It can be seen from their tactics that they obviously want to empty the inside line and create opportunities for Harden and Parsons.

however.

Originally, Parsons and Harden were supposed to screen each other so that they could force defenders to rotate, but because of Kobe's hot pursuit, their tactics became disconnected.

resignedly.

Tony Dow Glass immediately handed the ball to Morris on the strong side. Morris faced Jamison, hesitated, and instead of handing it to Qin Tao who was standing at the free throw line, he chose to single out the ball from the high position on the right. Once eukaryotic.

Relatively speaking.

Jamison's defense has been above average throughout his career.

Although Morris is inexperienced, he still has the upper hand in heads-up due to his age and physical advantages.
