Chapter 144: How much more points can you win! Please support)
In this game, the player that the media and fans paid the most attention to, apart from the two "Pauls", was Milicic, the second overall pick who just joined the Eagles.
Everyone hopes to see the genius who once "overwhelmed" Anthony regain a new life under the "scientist" system!
However, fans who hold this unrealistic fantasy may be disappointed, because in this game, Ke Yan only gave Milicic 4 minutes of playing time, 0 points and 2 rebounds, and the data is also very thin. It can only be said that the comparison is
The situation of the Pistons not needing to go into the locker room to take a shower has improved slightly.
But in the post-game interview, Milicic still expressed his excitement about coming to the Eagles: "After joining the team, I talked to Kimi. I will not enter the rotation immediately. I will only wait until I reach his level."
Only after achieving goals can I get more playing time. I think this is very professional. Quinn is helping me now. I feel that although my time with the Eagles is short, I have found some... love.
"
"Are you confident you will succeed with the Eagles?" the reporter asked.
"I can't say this now, I have to prove it with my performance!" Milicic's answer was very mature.
At the post-game press conference, Ke Yan was also asked about Milicic, which surprised him: "I want to make it clear that the Eagles traded Darko because they thought he could help us! I don't want him to
Everyone pays too much attention to him and ignores our other players, which is a kind of pressure on him and unfair to others. Who I choose to play depends on his performance and adaptability to the tactics."
His words were a bit forceful, but his intentions were also very obvious. First, it was to relieve Milicic's pressure. He didn't want him to bear too heavy a psychological burden, nor did he want him to be too ambitious and do whatever he wanted if he thought he was the second pick;
It is to give David Lee a reassurance. There is no possibility that if the team trades Milicic, it will give up David Lee. The two people compete for positions, and no one has special privileges.

December 5th.
The Hawks ushered in the challenge of the Lakers at home.
This is one of the five national live broadcasts of the Eagles throughout the season. Among the Eagles, Ke Yan, Barnes, and House all played for the Lakers last season and contributed greatly to the team's advancement to the Western Conference semifinals!
Among them, the feud between Key Yan and the Lakers is the most talked about.
As the acting head coach, Ke Yan was appointed at a critical moment and secured the Lakers' spot in the playoffs. He also strategized in the first round of the playoffs, defeated the SuperSonics, and fought the eventual champion Spurs in 7 bloody games, which was heart-wrenching.
But the Lakers still abandoned Ke Yan like worn-out shoes and didn't give him a permanent job. They negotiated a contract with Phil Jackson before the regular season ended, and even allowed Phil Jackson to appear in the playoffs to show off his power!
Nowadays, the Lakers' record is 8 wins and 9 losses, ranking eleventh in the Western Conference. In a sense, this is considered "buying a casket for a pearl"?
Although Phil Jackson, as the nine-time championship coach, enjoys a certain immunity from public opinion, and fans and media can give him a certain margin of error, he was unable to make it to the season with the lineup that "took over" Keyan's Western Conference's "Semi-Four".
In the post-match, I'm afraid no name can protect him.
At present, the team's record is poor, and Phil Jackson has already felt a certain amount of pressure, but externally, his attitude is very relaxed.
"In professional sports, it is normal for a team to face ups and downs. The Lakers have reached at least the Western Conference semifinals in the past seven seasons and are the best team in the league. It is normal to experience weakness at a certain stage.
We will make an internal summary and get out of the predicament as soon as possible."
On the other hand, what troubles Phil Jackson is not just the decline in the Lakers' record. In contrast, the Hawks' take-off results also put a lot of pressure on him.
It's like my girlfriend's ex suddenly got a job, and I am still collecting rent for several buildings for my family. Although the quality of life is still poor, I still lack a sense of accomplishment!
Those who ride horses will spend thirty years on the east side of the river and thirty years on the west side of the river. Don’t bully young people into poverty!
"In this game, James is mainly responsible for defending Kobe. If he is pressed into the penalty area, he will attack firmly and don't worry about being left open!" Ke Yan arranged.
Many people feel that in the 2008 Finals, every time Kobe Bryant received the ball on the offensive end, he encountered an "epic" level of double-teaming. Every time he completed a breakthrough, it was extremely difficult. The Celtics used an "epic level" strangulation to limit it.
Kobe Bryant.
In fact, this is entirely a flow of impressions.
In the 2008 Finals, the Celtics' defensive strategy was a wheel-and-wheel battle. Ray Allen, Posey, Pierce, Tony Allen and even Rondo, whoever faced Kobe, all defended individually! Only after Kobe pressed into the penalty area,
Only the Celtics' double attack will come up!
Moreover, this is not Kobe's unique treatment. Fisher breaks into the penalty area and the Celtics will also attack!
As for why so many people have the impression that Kobe was flanked by Celtics defensive players outside the penalty area? Because it was after the 2008 Finals, the Celtics' defensive strength gradually declined, and then Garnett was the core of the defense.
Use a flanking strategy to limit the opponent's shots and create a large number of mistakes.
Of course, the Hawks do not have Garnett to support the defensive system, but at the same time, the Lakers only have Kobe. In addition to Francisco Garcia at the small forward position, Smushparker and Odom may have three-point baskets, but neither
Stablize.
Players from both sides appeared on the stage. Barkley and Kenny Smith of TNT's commentary team immediately introduced the lineups of both sides. Barkley clearly sided with Ke Yan, believing that the Eagles have a higher chance of winning!
Barkley is now a believer in "Scientology". Of course, this "Scientology" is not the Scientology enshrined by Tom Cruise, but against most opponents, Barkley is optimistic that the Eagles can win, and many
He has said on the show several times that if he could meet a coach like "Scientist" in his career, he might have a chance to win the championship.
Starting lineup, five players from the Eagles: Paul, Joe Johnson, Posey, Josh Smith, Diaw.
Lakers five players: Parker, Kobe, Garcia, Odom, Kwame Brown.
Josh Smith's unexpected jump ball won the game, and the Eagles got the first down and opened up the perimeter.
Diaw gave Joe Johnson an off-ball screen from the side and helped him get rid of Kobe. Joe Johnson received the ball and Kwame Brown defended it.
Joe Johnson took the ball for a moment, changed direction and passed Kwame Brown on the right. He stopped suddenly in a high position without forcing a shot. He jumped up and passed the ball gently to Diaw, who was cutting from the left. Diaw drove into the basket and attracted
Odom didn't take a shot when he was on defense, and the ball was passed to Josh Smith, who cut in from the back row, and the latter caught the ball and dunked in one go. (2:0)
After landing, Josh Smith punched his chest with excitement! This action also made the fans at the scene feel happy, and Dior specifically made a move to stay away from Josh Smith, which was performed directly at the Phillips Arena
!
When he was just defending the pick-and-roll, Kobe chose to chase Joe Johnson. This choice was not wrong in itself. After all, Joe Johnson did play Kwame Brown casually. But Diaw, who was "missed", could also create murderous opportunities. For the Lakers,
Said, the team definitely had a hard time on the defensive end in this game!
The Lakers attacked, and their formation was also widened. Parker dribbled the ball across half court and passed it to Odom in the middle, and then ran to the bottom corner. Odom passed the ball to Kobe, who was in the low post on the right, asking for the ball. The main defender was Posey.
Posey's speed is slow and he is not well adapted to the Hawks' running and gunning, but his strength and confrontation are still good. He holds Kobe in the low post, and Kobe turns his back and forces a breakthrough. Paul comes up to double-team, digs out the ball from the lower three lanes, and leaves Parker open.
.
Kobe pulled the ball to avoid the steal, used his right foot as a foothold, reversed his back and made a fadeaway jumper. He turned and faded back to widen the distance, and made an elegant fadeaway jumper.
"Whoosh!"(2:2)
The Eagles attacked Kwame Brown again. After the screen, Joe Johnson singled out Brown. After shaking away the opponent, he shot a jumper and missed. Odom grabbed the rebound and wanted to push for a fast break. The rhythm was ruined by Josh Smith at the first moment.
!
This is also where Odom is not as good as Diaw. When he is pushing for a counterattack, he just rushes forward. He cannot see all directions and listen to all directions like Diaw.
Kobe received the ball on the right side, faked Posey's center of gravity, and forced his way to the baseline to break through. Josh Smith made up the ball in time, and the two men surrounded Kobe and passed the ball.
Odom's shot from the corner missed, and Brown rushed for the offensive rebound and asked for a foul!
Paul dribbled to the frontcourt and played a high pick-and-roll with Josh Smith. Odom was unable to pursue the defense and was cut inside by Josh Smith. Brown, who had received a foul, did not force forward and allowed Josh Smith to complete the game.
Second dunk.(4:2)
Although Kwame Brown also has problems of this kind, Phil Jackson still doesn't trust other insiders in the team. Brian Cook, who was used by Ke Yan last season, and Pachulia, who joined with a mid-level contract, both
Not reused.
Kobe was surrounded again near the penalty area and passed to Garcia on the outside. The latter missed the shot due to interference from Joe Johnson, and the rebound was protected by Josh Smith.
During the transition between offense and defense, the Lakers' foothold was not stable. Paul took the ball to the basket and handed it to Josh Smith who stepped in. Josh Smith did not adjust his steps well and failed to take off. However, it also compressed the Lakers' defense and the outside line fell.
Joe Johnson caught the ball and made a steady three-pointer! (7:2)
When the Lakers attacked, Kobe caught the ball and was double-teamed. He separated Odom into the open space and shot a three-pointer, but he missed!
Last season, at the request of Keyan, Odom was good at three-point shooting, and his shooting rate was almost 32%. It was not qualified, but at least the opponent would not let it go easily. However, this season, Odom
His outside shooting percentage dropped to 27%, which is quite a serious decline.
Diaw continued to provide hand-to-hand screens for Paul. Parker was very active in bypassing the pursuit. Paul made an emergency stop at 45 degrees and passed back to the middle. Diaw caught the ball and shot. Brown did not expect Diaw to take a two-point shot. He put it far away and the ball came back.
Enter.(9:2)
The Hawks were pinned to the ground at the beginning of the game. Even if Phil Jackson didn't like to call timeouts, he couldn't just sit on the sidelines and whistle at this time.
After the timeout, the Lakers still couldn't organize an effective offense. Kobe was double-teamed again and again, and Jackson had nothing to do. He didn't even make substitutions and was the starter in the opening game.
However, on the defensive end, Odom has a wider coverage, and he will choose to let go of Josh Smith to cover up defense. Josh Smith lacks shooting ability, even if the defender cannot block his first step, Brown will stand inside
Good position, don't let him take off easily, his handling of the ball is relatively rough.
Josh Smith was blocked from eating the cake, and the Eagles' offensive focus shifted to the outside. The two backcourt guns used the pick-and-roll and mismatched singles to create opportunities by taking advantage of local advantages. Without top-level help defenders, the Eagles' lineup on the field is indeed relatively weak on the offensive end.
The solution is that the team that can beat them must either outshine them on the offensive end, or use top-notch help defense rotations.
At the end of the first quarter, the Hawks led the Lakers by 13 points, 33-20. Barkley couldn't be too fussy in the commentary room!
"In an interview with China, Kimi talked about what would happen to the Lakers without him last season. He believed that the team would definitely decline and might not even make the playoffs. Judging from the facts,
That's true. Even Phil Jackson can't replace Kimi's role!"
Barkley's words were more or less private. After all, the Bulls personally ended his hopes of winning the championship.
In the substitute contest in the second quarter, the Eagles still had an obvious advantage.
The firepower of the Lakers' bench is mainly led by Atkins and Delfino. Without Butler and Finley to lead the bench, the Lakers' bench obviously lacks a ball handler. The team's bench is weak in scoring, which is also the case for the Lakers.
The main reason for the poor performance this season.
As for the Eagles, Ke Yan told the players to be careful about Pachulia. In fact, the Georgian, who is in good physical condition, is just a European white bear who defends in the low post, and has not yet turned into a "scumbag".
David Lee and Mickey Moore both have qualified mid-range skills, so the Hawks' substitute lineup's play style is "double pick-and-roll inside." Obviously the substitute lineup does not have qualified ball handlers, but relying on all "shooters",
The formation was very wide, and the Eagles were able to execute their tactics. Kittles and David Lee frequently made trouble in the mid-range.
After three and a half minutes of play, the Hawks' lead reached 19 points. The Lakers quickly replaced Kobe, Smushparker, and Odom.
"This ball can't be played!" When he came off the field, Atkins threw the towel in frustration. Compared with last season under Ke Yan, Atkins is really depressed this season!
The main lineup returned, and the Lakers' offense improved significantly. Except for Barnes, the other players in the Eagles' lineup seemed undefended and could not cause any trouble to Kobe. The Lakers launched a 10:2 attack wave.
Bringing the point difference back to 13 points.
The Eagles' main lineup rested for half a quarter before coming on the scene. Ke Yan's adjustment was a little late. Even with double-team tactics, there was still no way to stop the "red-eyed" Kobe. Even if it was one versus two, Kobe could still
Continuous hits!
Relying on his own strength, Kobe can support the team's offense in a short period of time. However, this "bloodthirsty state" is difficult to last for a long time. 62 points in 3 quarters and 81 points in a single game are all "passive skills".
Secondly, the Lakers' defense really can't guard the Hawks!
Kobe Bryant's offensive end was amazing, but in the end, it was difficult for him to defeat the four-handed opponent. The Eagles' two-handed backcourt scored 31 points in the first half of the game, and the Lakers' arrangements were clear. At the end of the half, the Eagles led 66:50.
Lakers 16 points.
"Don't relax just because you have a 16-point lead! There is no such thing as gentleness, courtesy and frugality on the basketball court. Win as many points as you can!"
In the halftime locker room, Ke Yan yelled loudly with his neck red. All the players could feel Ke Yan's deep resentment towards the Lakers!
"In the second half of the game, let me continue to double attack Kobe! I don't believe he can continue to be so accurate!"
"Paul, if you were a man and scored 58 points for the Lakers today, no one would dare to call you 58 again! Not even Yang Mi!"
Ke Yan gave the players a shot of blood. Everyone knew that his boss was going to kill the Lakers today!
Whoever performs well today can increase their impression points!
Doesn’t this drive the Lakers to death?
In the third quarter, Paul, Joe Johnson, and Diaw scored three-pointers in a row. The Eagles made 5 of 9 three-pointers in a single quarter, widening the point difference to 27 points and establishing the victory in one fell swoop!
Under the watchful eyes of fans from both China and the United States, the game entered garbage time early.
In the final quarter of the game, Kobe continued to play, trying to use his personal ability to reverse the game. This was a futile effort, and the Eagles did not relax at all.
Ke Yan kept at least one of Paul and Joe Johnson on the court, and when he was leading a big score, he arranged for Posey or Barnes to follow Kobe on the court, not giving Kobe any chance to create a miracle!
Under the targeted defense of the Eagles players, Kobe's shooting percentage in the fourth quarter, and halfway through the fourth quarter, the Eagles still led by 25 points, locking the victory in the safe!
Both sides sent in substitutes, and Kobe's face was frighteningly dark when he came off the court!
The Hawks, who were still weak last season, have become an unmatched opponent of the Lakers this season, just because they poached the Lakers' head coach from last season! This was something that their own management gave up on their own initiative!
If Ke Yan is still in the team, will it be the Eagles' turn to act wild?
Look at the lineup that Ke Yan has built in the Hawks, and then look at the helpers that the Lakers have found for him, what a mess!
If this continues, let alone the championship, it’s hard to say whether we can even make it to the playoffs!
Kobe is getting more and more angry on the sidelines, and on the court, the Hawks really don't give the Lakers face and show no mercy at all!
The key is that the Lakers bench players have little fighting spirit. They look at the 30 point difference and are indifferent. This makes Kobe even more unhappy!
The team's combat effectiveness, compared to last season, has dropped slightly!
The final score was fixed at 132:100. The Eagles defeated the Lakers by 32 points at home. Ke Yan proved himself in front of his old club.
This defeat was the worst loss in Kobe's career. Kobe, who was in an extremely bad mood, returned directly to the visiting team's locker room without saying a word!
Also silent was Phil Jackson. After the game, the two had a tacit understanding and did not come together to shake hands. Phil Jackson went directly back to the locker room, while Ke Yan hugged the coaching staff to celebrate the victory!
The scenes in this game are really worth recalling in the future!
During the press conference, Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant continued to have dark faces throughout the entire press conference, unwilling to say a word.
"Being interviewed after losing is really inhumane!" This was Ke Yan's foreshadowing when he complained about the referee. At this time, it was indeed a true portrayal of Phil Jackson and Kobe's inner feelings.
In turn, Ke Yan, who kept grinning, became humble at this time: "The players performed very well in this game and their shooting percentage was very high. Being able to defeat the top four teams in the Western Conference last season gave us a lot of encouragement.
We cannot be complacent just because of one regular season game, and I also believe the Lakers will adjust."
On the surface they were all words of humility and blessings, but in fact they were all cues to Phil Jackson. The old guy's face looked very ugly! He felt like he had been slapped in the face.
Haha, I’ll hit you when I’m going to hit you, do you still have to choose a day?
