On November 9, the Lakers continued their journey into the new season and challenged the Dallas Mavericks led by Nowitzki away from home. They lost 124:131, bringing their losing streak to three games. At the same time, the team's winning rate fell below 50%.

The ranking fell to tenth in the Western Conference.

For a time, doubts arose from the outside world.

2 wins and 3 losses, this result is indeed far from the fans’ expectations, but if you analyze it carefully, this result is really good for a team that just carried out major reforms in the summer and re-forged the offensive and defensive system.

It's acceptable, not to mention that the Lakers have already faced the Suns and Mavericks, two of the top four teams in the Western Conference, in the first five games, so they still suffer a bit in the schedule.

In the city of Los Angeles, some pressure must be borne. In the eyes of many fans who don't like Kobe so much, Kobe forced O'Neal and Phil Jackson away. He did things that affected the team's strength because of conflicts.

, this is a selfish act. Tomjanovich failed to control this team better than Phil Jackson, and the so-called Chinese genius assistant coaches are just hyped goods, and they are shallow in the end!

Many newspapers and media are crazily belittling the Lakers. This is exactly the same as the praise everywhere a week ago. This is a big city, this is Los Angeles. If you perform well, they can praise you to the sky. If you perform poorly, they can too.

Trample you to the ground.

Fortunately, before the Lakers could feel the pressure from the outside world, the most representative violent incident in NBA history broke out in the Eastern Conference - the Auburn Hills Palace Incident. With only 45.9 seconds left in the Pacers' game against the Pistons, the Pistons

With the team trailing the Pacers by 15 points, Pacers forward Ron Artest made a rough foul on Ben Wallace. Ben Wallace was in a bad mood after losing and pushed the Pacers forward Ron Artest hard.

Test hit him, triggering a violent conflict between the two sides. Later, after being comforted by the referee and teammates, Ron Artest was lying on the technical stage, and a fan poured beer on him, causing Artest to lose control of his mood.

Artest then rushed into the audience and beat the fans violently. The Pistons fans fought back. Artest failed to take advantage and fell into a fight. At the critical moment, Wu Sheng Jackson followed up and knocked down a group of fans with a combination of punches.

Rescued Artest from the crowd...

Compared with the incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills, the Lakers' three-game losing streak is nothing to mention. Stern has always been committed to changing the image of the NBA and pleasing more fans. This time, there was a violent incident in which players beat fans.

At this time, all media have focused their attention on the report of this incident.

Including Lakers fans, they are now watching videos of the Palace of Auburn Hills and watching related news, forgetting to pay attention to their own team's results. Even the Lakers' away game against the Hornets has received much less attention.

Speaking of which, the Hornets have been a relatively miserable team in the past two years. Originally in the relatively weak Eastern Conference, Baron Davis and Mashburn can also lead this team to the playoffs. In addition,

With the steady improvement of second-year rookie David West, the team's life was quite comfortable. As a result, the league expanded and the Hornets were pushed to the Western Conference. In addition, the team's second-in-command Mashburn had a knee injury.

Minimally invasive surgery and reimbursement for the season directly destroyed the Hornets' combat effectiveness. They started the game with 1 win and 5 losses, and lost to their opponents by an average of 18 points per game. This kind of opponent is perfect for bottoming out and rebounding!

At the same time, the team's recent poor performance also gave Tomjanovich an opportunity to adjust the team's lineup. Caron Butler was moved into the lineup by Tomjanovich, and Grant, who was in poor form after the start of the game, was finally removed.

As a result, in Ke Yan's eyes, the Lakers' five strongest players are finally united in the lineup!

Although they were playing back-to-back games and had played against the Mavericks for 41 minutes in the last game, Kobe was still full of fighting spirit after the start. He continuously succeeded in singles against J.R. Smith of the Hornets in the low post, helping the Lakers establish an 8-point lead in the first half of the game.

Leading edge.

After Kobe Bryant left the game, Caron Butler, who had been playing the role of sixth man before, later played the role of the team's first attacker in the rotation, and finally got his wish. Butler was very excited during the game.

, coupled with the apparent lack of defensive strength on the wings of the Hornets, Butler scored 8 points in the first quarter, and the Lakers also ended the first quarter with a 9-point lead at 32:23.

Although the team's record has fluctuated, the most commendable thing about the Lakers this season is their offense. Even with some of Kobe's unreasonable offensive choices, the Lakers' offensive efficiency still ranks fifth in the league. This is similar to

The offensive system built by Ke Yan is inseparable. In the second quarter of the game, Butler, Odom, and Atkins continued to perform on the offensive end. After coming to the Lakers, the touch was generally only used in scoring against the Nuggets.

In double figures, Atkins scored 8 points in the second quarter and 11 points in the first half. Three of the Lakers scored in double figures in the first half, directly opening the point difference to 23 points.

.

Facing the weak Hornets, they led by 23 points at halftime. Ke Yan believed that the second half was a good opportunity to practice tactics. However, Kobe didn't think so. In addition to the team's record, he wanted to strive for some personal honors this season.

, such as MVP, such as scoring champion. Without the suspense of victory or defeat, Kobe was more aggressive in singles, taking 12 shots in a single quarter, hitting 5 goals and scoring 12 points.

His score reached 25 points, but the point difference between the Lakers and Hornets was narrowed to 18 points. It is not an exaggeration to say that "singles hurt the team".

If it weren't for back-to-back games, Kobe would probably have wanted to come up and score 30 points in the fourth quarter. Fortunately, Tomjanovich was moved by emotion and reason, and persuaded Kobe not to worry about this data.

It affected his physical strength and at the same time took a greater risk of injury, so he reluctantly persuaded Kobe.

However, seeing Kobe's angry expression, Ke Yan understood that the other party was still dissatisfied. From another perspective, he could also understand why Tomjanovich knew Grant was useless, but kept playing him for five games.

The main reason why we took the opportunity to win him after three consecutive losses was for the sake of harmony in the team's locker room.

113:96, the Lakers defeated the New Orleans Hornets in an away game, ending their three-game losing streak (3-3).

A big win relieved the pressure surrounding the Lakers team. The negative news subsided and the team was able to concentrate on the next game.

On the fourth day after the interview, Xu Yi officially published his interview with Ke Yan on the official website of ESPN China. Through the ESPN platform, correct information about Ke Yan appeared on a home country website for the first time.

However, the reaction of the vast majority of fans perfectly implemented the sentence, "If you start a rumor, you will lose your legs if you refute it." No one paid attention to Ke Yan's emphasis on "I won the job with the Rockets through my own efforts." Everyone focused on

Regarding "Ke Yan's experience of becoming an assistant coach" and "Ke Yan feels that the Suns are a strong team", of course, some female fans also focus on Ke Yan's good appearance. After all, women are visual animals.

"To be honest, I quite admire coaches like Ke Yan who dare to go out and further their studies. In basketball, it is a good idea to learn from the foreigners to learn their skills and defeat the foreigners. I am optimistic that Ke Yan will take over the national team in the future~"

"To give you some popular science, Ke Yan, as an assistant coach, is responsible for the design and training of the Lakers' offensive tactics this season. The Lakers' scoring average this season ranks among the top four in the league. This data is very eye-catching, and Tang Shuai attaches great importance to Ke Yan.

He has been given ample opportunities to express himself. It is estimated that with a few more years of training, he is very likely to become the first Chinese head coach to coach an NBA team!"

"Isn't it a bit early to say that the Suns are a championship-level team in the regular season? They only won 15 games last season, and they just started the season with a bad start. I am still optimistic about the top three in Texas, especially the Rockets, and the combination of Yao and Mai.

!"

"No bragging, no slander, just a rational discussion. Ke Yan has been an assistant coach for two seasons. Neither team made it to the playoffs. The Suns were last in the league last season! This season he joined the Lakers and only had three wins and three losses.

Don’t brag about a Chinese person when you see one, that’s not good!”

"Wow, Ke Yan is so handsome? (^_-)"
