Chapter 92 I’d rather be a “villain” than a tool
Entering the fourth quarter with a 14-point advantage, Ke Yan's side is sitting firmly on Diaoyutai. On the contrary, Van Gundy's side is under great pressure. No one wants to lose to his former assistant, let alone Ke Yan, who was kicked out by him.
The role players were average, so Van Gundy decided to stagger the usage time of Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming, allowing Yao Ming to appear at the beginning of the fourth quarter and attack the Lakers' internal weaknesses.
The lack of manpower inside the Lakers is a natural weakness of the Lakers. It is indeed a wide open door to deal with a powerful inside line like Yao Ming. However, Ke Yan targeted it from the source and decisively arranged for House and Delfino to flank Su, who had a skewed passing consciousness.
Pull, not trying to steal the ball, but just trying to delay Sura's release of the ball. While Diop was pushing the ball inside, Barnes on the outside paid close attention to Yao Ming's attack. Once Yao Ming got the ball, he immediately launched the attack.
flanking attack.
At this time, in the cafeteria of Huaxia University, the male students were surrounded by the TV on three floors inside and three floors outside. They cheered whenever the Mosaic team scored, felt regretful whenever Yao Ming failed to score, and those who were of poor quality directly cursed.<
/p>
As the game progressed, the sound of regret became louder. The female students passing by did not need to see the TV screen to know that the Mosaic team had lost.
"After all, Ke Yan is also from China, don't you think so?" Some girls expressed confusion at the boys' dejected reactions. Aren't they all one of our own?
"What do you know?" Seeing that he was about to lose, the boy was in a bad mood and replied disdainfully.
They are all Chinese, and the feelings that the Chinese people pour into are still different. Wang Zhizhi entered the NBA earlier than Yao Ming, and has never made the Chinese people worried. Battelle was even the first Asian to win an NBA championship ring, but there was not much either.
Everyone is proud of this ring. Yao Ming landed in the NBA and reached his current position step by step. Many NBA fans were slowly cultivated when he entered the NBA. Unless a domestic guard with Kobe Bryant or Tracy McGrady's style of play appeared later and landed in the NBA,
Otherwise it will be difficult for anyone to match Yao Ming.
As for Ke Yan, his situation is more complicated. First of all, before he became an assistant coach for the Lakers, he was completely unknown to the fans. Even before the fans fully knew him, he was known as "thunder-like"
"Becoming the head coach of the Lakers. To the fans, it is like suddenly having a relative come back from abroad. He graduated from Harvard. You will show off to the outside world that my family XX came back from abroad, but he certainly did not grow up with him.
Relatives are cordial; secondly, there is a natural sense of distance between coaches and players. Just like compared to loyal ministers like Zhuge Liang and Xun Yu, most boys would definitely look forward to becoming unparalleled generals like Zhao Yun and Ma Chao.
A truth.
Even though he was regarded as a "villain" by his own country's fans, he still could not stop Ke Yan from leading the Lakers to victory. Yao Ming's decline in physical strength in the fourth quarter became the Mosaic team's Achilles heel, and the Mosaic team missed consecutive attacks.
As long as the Mosaic team fails to score a shot, Odom will counterattack as soon as he grabs the rebound. Yao Ming will be even more tired if he runs after him. If he can't run back, the Lakers will fight more and less. This is the conspiracy on the table. In the end,
The Mosaic team was brought down. The final score was fixed at 101:114. The Lakers won the away game, extending their lead over the Mosaic team to two games and regaining their fifth position in the Western Conference. (37-20)
Although he is gradually drifting away from the general direction of maintaining the sixth place in the Western Conference and catching the SuperSonics, Ke Yan does not feel that it is time to control the ranking. At the moment, the morale of the Lakers is high and they can work hard to achieve a good result.
You can improve your reputation.
After the game, Ke Yan was invited to Yao Ming's home.
Ke Yan worked as a coach for the Mosaic team before. Although he and Yao Ming are just colleagues at work and have only a casual personal relationship, after all, they are Chinese people working in the United States, so they must have some care. Ke Yan has been here as a guest before, and he has been praised by Yao Ming.
"Mom's chicken soup" countless times.
"Come, try my mother's cooking skills. I'm not bragging, it must be better than what you get in a restaurant!"
Fang Feng bumped into her son and said with a smile: "Just do it, Xiao Ke, just eat it."
Ke Yan took a bite. Whether it tastes good or not is another matter. Anyway, it’s authentic. “Oh, auntie, you don’t know, it’s been a long time since I’ve had such authentic local food. I had the Los Angeles food with my girlfriend.
There are many Chinese restaurants, but there are only two that have authentic Cantonese food."
"Look, Ke Yan said so, mom, please stop being modest." Yao Ming continued to support his mother.
"Xiao Ke likes to eat local food? Are you from Shanghai, too?"
"It takes two hours to drive, I live in Sioux City."
"Oh, that's very close~"
After the meal, Ke Yanzui had no time to rest. He kept being asked to pick up food. It was not good to refuse, and he couldn't eat if he refused. Finally, he burped, and Fang Feng stopped.
Ke Yan felt a little tired and helped put away the dishes, then sat on the sofa and didn't want to move.
Knowing that Yao Ming and Key Yan had something to talk about, Fang Feng made them two cups of tea to relieve their tiredness, turned around and returned to the room, leaving the living room to Yao Ming and Key Yan.
"I thought you had great ideas when I was with the Mosaic team, but becoming the head coach of the Lakers within two years is really beyond my expectations. I thought you would be buried for many years." Yao Ming said.
p>
The environment in the NBA is indeed not friendly to Chinese people, and this is reflected very well in Yao Ming. For example, in terms of the referee's whistleblowing scale, Yao Ming is generally at a disadvantage.
Ke Yan has always been a distinguished guest in the coaching staff of Mosaic, Suns and even the Lakers. That is to say, Tomjanovich trusted him and gave him many opportunities to perform. He won the position before Tomjanovich was admitted to the hospital.
Support from Hamblen and Kobe.
In addition, Jim Buss did not want Phil Jackson from Jenny's faction to return, and Kupchak wanted to keep his authority, so he only chose Ke Yan among Phil Jackson and Ke Yan. The two teamed up to push Ke Yan to the position.

"Unexpected, but reasonable." Ke Yan said confidently.
"The Basketball Management Center asked me to ask you if you would like to consider working for the national team?" Yao Ming suddenly asked.
"..." Ke Yan's eyes widened, "Isn't Yunus doing a pretty good job?"
"If you're not a coach, it's impossible for you to give up your job in the NBA and return to China~" Yao Ming said quickly, "They want to ask you to be a consultant and help make some on-the-spot adjustments during the competition."
Just like the Dream Team of the 2004 Athens Olympics, the head coach is Larry Brown and Popovich serves as an assistant. The heads of the basketball center may also know that Ke Yan has established a foothold in the NBA and cannot be an assistant to Yunus.
, so I changed my title to "consultant".
If it is really beneficial to the country, even if it means sacrificing some personal rest time, Ke Yan doesn't care about the titles of "consultant" and "assistant". He doesn't care about these feathers, but the problem is, it's not suitable!
First, Yunus is in charge of the national team and you rashly put a consultant in. What will he think? Especially Ke Yan is not a leader who has arranged to join the coaching staff to gain experience points. He is also a well-known new coach. If two
There were personal differences, and Yunus was worried that Ke Yanbing would admonish him!
Second, a coach like Ke Yan who has his own clear tactical style is not suitable for the national team, at least not suitable for leading the national team part-time. He needs to be a coach who finds players according to his own tactics, and the national team mostly relies on domestic players.
The strongest players are selected into the national team and then run together. This does not rule out whether there are political parties among the various CBA teams, whether the leaders will dictate the player list, etc. Ke Yan has no faction and no foundation, let alone cover this.
situation.
Basketball is not about fighting and killing, it is about human relationships!
Ke Yan opened his mouth, but hesitated. Yao Ming immediately understood his choice and waved: "I understand what you mean. Pretend I haven't told you this."
"If the day comes when China Basketball needs me to do something, I will definitely do it. But I really don't want to be regarded as a 'mascot', a publicity tool, a point to hype traffic, you understand
?"
Although he is a man of two generations, he is used to seeing some dark things outside the stadium. But Ke Yan really hates it from the bottom of his heart and does not want to become a tool in the hands of those in power.
