After playing to the end with the Spurs and defeating the Mavericks and Suns, after Ke Yan took office, the Lakers' performance in strong dialogue has also improved. In terms of reviews, they have faintly reached the fourth position in the Western Conference. The media's praise for them ranks among the top.

Above the Sonics, third in the Western Conference.

Fans also feel pity for Ke Yan. Everyone thinks that he only took over the Lakers midway and it is a pity that he is not qualified to win the "Best Coach" trophy. Give him a full season and he may not be able to compete with D'Antoni.

.

For this honor, Ke Yan himself is very indifferent, or he has never had this idea. Leading the Lakers to achieve good results, finding a good place during the offseason, and getting more salary is a realistic thing for Ke Yan

.

As for the option of staying with the Lakers, after Ke Yan made a clear statement last time and there was still no news from the management, Ke Yan already understood what the team meant.

In fact, a more obvious signal has been sent to Ke Yan long ago. All rookie reports from the scouting team for this year's draft were not sent to Ke Yan, let alone asking for Ke Yan's opinion on which rookie to focus on.

Of course, this is the Lakers' loss!

I won a beautiful resume for myself and found a beautiful girlfriend by the way. This trip to Los Angeles was not a loss at all!

On the second day of the fight against the Suns, the Lakers returned to their home court and faced back-to-back position battles with the Rockets. Despite their lack of physical strength, they lost to their opponents 94:105, and once again lost in the "slot battle"

.(43-24)

As early as when he chose to fight the Suns, Ke Yan had thought about the possibility of being killed by the Rockets. But when it came to the multiple-choice question, he would rather have a vigorous "run and gun civil war" with D'Antoni than fight with him.

Team Rocket's battle.

Losing is not a big deal, but in the game against the Rockets, the Lakers encountered an injury crisis, which left Ke Yan with a knot in his throat.

Odom strained his thigh muscle during the game against the Rockets. After examination by the team doctor, he needs to rest for two weeks.

"In principle, it will not affect his performance in the playoffs." The team doctor gave his own judgment.

The injury was not serious, which is a great blessing for the Lakers.

Counting the top player Medvedenko, the Lakers have only five insiders in total. Odom is not only the most important of the five inside players, but also a very important fulcrum in Keyan's tactical system. His injury

, it is a very serious loss for the Lakers.

"Actually, we should prepare for some rest at the end of the season!" Ke Yan blamed himself.

"Rotate rest?" Han Bron didn't quite understand what Ke Yan meant. Isn't this a professional term in football?

These days, even the Spurs have no precedent of having a main player absent without reason!

"Forget it. Let's not talk about it!" Ke Yan looked at the schedule and felt a little calmer.

Thanks to the NCAA's "March Madness" entering a critical stage, the NBA's game schedule has also made concessions for broadcasting. The intensity of the Lakers' games in the next half month is not high, basically one game every two days, and

The opponent's strength is average, but if you work hard, you can still hold the situation, right?

Having lost his general, Ke Yan was in a bad mood, but life had to go on.

After receiving $300,000 from Nescafé, Ke Yan was tasked with shooting a set of commercials. The theme of the commercials was "No matter how busy I am, I still want to have a cup of coffee with you."

The general plot is: Ke Yan was busy in the office all night, and showed up at his girlfriend's school gate on time the next day. His girlfriend asked, "Aren't you busy?", and Ke Yan replied in an extremely gentle voice: "Are you busy?"

I’m busy, so I want to have a cup of coffee with you.”

Compared with the brainwashing advertising slogans such as "No gifts for the holidays this year, only brain money for receiving gifts", this commercial still has some plot, and Ke Yan plays himself, and the girlfriend is set as a "female college student"

, is also very close to Wang Lifan. For Ke Yan, who is shooting a commercial for the first time, it is relatively easy to "get into the role".

After arriving at the filming site, Ke Yan met his partner for this shooting, Chen Yanxi, a Baodao girl who was interviewed by the production team in Los Angeles. She is an international student at the University of Southern California. She has a bun face and a very pure appearance. She also speaks with a Baodao accent. Pearl milk tea

The flavor is very strong, much sweeter than Hebe.

"This is the future Shen Jiayi~" Well, "Those Years" is also one of the few movies that Ke Yan has watched in his previous life. Chen Yanxi is not much different from that time, or she is more like a "campus goddess" than then.
"Hello, my name is Chen Yanxi, you can call me Michelle." Before the filming started, Chen Yanxi introduced herself enthusiastically.

"Hello." Ke Yan responded politely, but not as enthusiastic as expected.

"I have watched many Lakers games, and you guys play very well." Chen Yanxi still used "basketball" as an introduction to talk to Ke Yan.

"Really?" Ke Yan raised his eyebrows and became interested.

"Kobe is super popular over there on our treasure island."

"Really, what about me?"

After chatting for a few words, Ke Yan was able to find out the other person's background. He said that he had watched many Lakers games, and he probably knew three or four Lakers players. He probably Googled them temporarily, and then his interest dropped greatly.

As the head coach of an NBA team, he usually has to deal with senior management, face reporters, manage the locker room, and talk to peers, which is very tiring. He really doesn't want to make friends in his private life.

People who talk nonsense are even more insensitive when making friends.

The filming of the commercial was very simple. Although Ke Yan has never acted before, as a coach who is often interviewed, he has no camera phobia. He can act according to the director's requirements and will not be nervous when reading his lines.

And his own voice is also very soft, after all, he comes from Sioux City. There is a joke on the Internet, "I would rather quarrel with the people from Sioux City than talk to the people from Yongcheng", which describes the people from Sioux City speaking softly, which is also very suitable.

The whole process went very smoothly, and the filming staff even praised Ke Yan for his acting talent and that he felt very good in front of the camera!

After finding an excuse to decline Chen Yanxi's dinner invitation, Ke Yan returned as his head coach with 300,000 US dollars in advertising fees. He immediately paid back the money he owed Tomjanovich, and then became debt-free.

Lightweight.

After back-to-back games against the Suns and Rockets, the Lakers got two days of rest. After fully recovering their blood, the team faced the challenge of the Grizzlies at home, who were aiming to hit the playoffs.

In terms of team play, this Grizzlies team is very restrained against the Lakers. The biggest advantage of the Lakers is that they have two singles players, Kobe and Butler, on the wings. It is not easy for most teams to match up with two players, but

The Grizzlies have three above-average wing defenders, Mike Miller, Shane Battier, and James Posey.

In addition, the Grizzlies' wing strength also includes Bunch Wells and Dante Jones, who are both offensive and defensive and have amazing thickness.

In terms of strength, the Grizzlies definitely have the level to make the playoffs in the Western Conference. Their weakness is that team leader Gasol's style of play is a bit soft and he cannot stand out at critical moments.

Most of the outside players are 3D players who can attack well and defend well, but lack independent offensive ability.

In view of this weakness of the Grizzlies, the Lakers changed their game strategy in this game, giving up their usual offensive strategy, replacing the twin towers of Diop and Anderson, and fighting the Grizzlies based on defense.

At the same time, Finley replaced Butler as the starter, serving as a more reliable shooting point from the outside to contain the Grizzlies' defense. Butler returned to the sixth man position, leading the bench to attack the Grizzlies' defense.

Substitute.

Facts have proved that two defensive insiders guarding the penalty area do have a great impact on Gasol. The Grizzlies lead one inside player, whether it is Lorenzen Wright or Swift, which is not very helpful on the offensive end.

Gasol.

The Lakers put their defensive focus in the penalty area, and the threat of White Chocolate Williams delivering shells to the inside was also reduced. Including Bunchy Wells, who is good at making a living in the paint, his performance after coming off the bench was also relatively average.

The defensive end restricted the Grizzlies, and the Lakers also sacrificed their own offense. Kobe Bryant was surrounded and intercepted by the Grizzlies inside and outside, and it was quite difficult for him to shoot offensively. He shot an inefficient 11-for-34 from the field.

.But in this game, the referee was more generous, and Kobe made 16 of 17 free throws at the free throw line.

This shot was not picturesque at all. Just looking at the statistics, I thought it was Harden who played it!

In any case, Kobe Bryant's side suffered a drought, and he delivered 40 points in this defensive battle, helping the Lakers defeat the Grizzlies 101:96, (44-24) continuing to lead the Rockets with a one-game advantage.

Ranked fifth in the Western Conference.

And this game was basically the ugliest game the team played in any game that Kobe participated in after Ke Yan took office.

After scoring 40 points in this game, Kobe has initially established a certain advantage in the competition for the scoring champion. Odom's injury is not good news for the Lakers, but it is good for Kobe's competition for the scoring champion.

.After all, without one person to handle the ball, the ball rights will definitely be diluted to Kobe.

One day later, the Lakers visited the Pepsi Center to challenge the Denver Nuggets. Kobe once again put on a great scoring performance. He scored 46 points, 7 rebounds and 3 steals on sudden outside shots throughout the game. Unfortunately, his full output failed.

Help the Lakers win the game.

The lineup is more complete, especially the Nuggets, who have obvious advantages inside, taking the lead throughout the game. The inside combination of Camby, Martin, Nene, and Najera is enough to guarantee the Nuggets 48 minutes of game time.

Li always has the inside advantage.

Ke Yan also tried to use a smaller lineup to fight, but he obviously underestimated Nuggets coach George Karl.

Karl did not follow the Lakers' rhythm changes, but insisted on "stopping with me." Kenyon Martin, as a highly mobile "brutal" power forward, pulled to the outside to take care of Barn, who could only shoot from the bottom corner.

Si is still no problem. On the offensive end, the Nuggets' advantage in the paint is very obvious.

117:109, the Nuggets defeated the Lakers at home and are in a favorable position in the competition for a playoff spot. (44-25).

As for the Lakers' lineup, the shortcomings of being too thin inside finally emerged after Odom was injured.
