The rest is just noise

Chapter 1,145 For those who fall in love with Garnett, I suggest you restart

As soon as media day ended, the Lakers rushed back to their Palm Springs resort the next day.

Louis discussed the shooting star tactics training plan with the coaching staff overnight.

There are 10 meteor tactics designed by Louis himself. Previously, Nelson and his assistants designed hundreds of tactics.

As Louis proposed the "Temple", Nelson and the assistant coaches were also carefully checking whether the tactics they designed were suitable for integration into the "Meteor".

After several hours of discussion with Louis, the coaching staff selected five of the tactics to add to the "Meteor".

Meteor's tactical naming is very simple. It does not use various confusing exclusive nouns, but is directly represented by English letters.

In other words, from Meteor a to Meteor z, ideally, the future Meteor tactics will be expanded to 26.

Louis discussed with the coaching staff overnight the training and implementation of the shooting star tactic, as well as the five players on the team who are currently most suitable for this tactic.

The conclusion is Wilson, Ellis, Tragedian, Garnett, Laettner.

But the problem is, Bei, Jia and Lai are all in the fourth position.

"You can let Christian play center." Nelson suggested. "He often played center when he was at Duke. Before the draft, he was regarded as a more athletic Sikma."

Bird laughed and said: "Let the little boy play the center? No more defense in the penalty area?"

"Kevin can help defend at the fourth position, and Benj is also a defensive master, so it's no problem." Nelson explained.

"Why is there no problem? Kevin's current body cannot withstand the confrontation of the NBA-level fourth position. He needs a tough five position to help him support the penalty area. If he lets the young boy play the five position, he will have to

Let Kevin wipe his ass."

Bird's sense of responsibility as Garnett's development coach came out.

"What do you think his chances are of being able to finish his rookie season healthy under these circumstances?"

What Nelson actually wants to say is that defense is not necessary at all, the important thing is to produce results on the offensive end.

But he knew that Bird might not be able to accept such an arrangement, and Louis, who was always good at coaching players to defend, might not be able to tolerate Garnett giving up defense in order to protect himself.

Nelson glanced at Louis, who was still listening to the opinions of others.

"How about trying to let Erwin play the number one position?"

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar rarely wanted to get involved, but he made a suggestion that made everyone roll their eyes.

"Karim, your suggestion is very good, don't suggest it next time."

"What's the meaning?"

Louis was amused: "I know you want to do your best, but there are specialties in the art. You can connect to the earth, but don't connect to hell. Is this an idea that humans can come up with?"

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was shocked: "You don't believe Irvin can play point guard?"

"He's almost fucking fatter than me, he's the slowest on the team, and his lateral movement level is about the same as yours. By letting him play point guard, do you want the No. 1 position in the league to take turns against us and set a new personal scoring high for us?

"

Bird teased: "You admit that you are fat?"

"Shut the hell up and talk about business!"

Zhao Yuanzheng made a bold suggestion: "Otherwise, let Kevin play the third position first, so that Christian can take the fourth position. If the fifth position... maybe we can let Greg take the position, although he

He is a rookie, but he is already strong enough and has the defensive toughness and rebound protection we need."

"Where's Benj?" Louis didn't believe that Zhao Yuanzheng would let Wilson serve as a substitute.

Zhao Yuanzheng said: "Benj can play the second position, and we can use Dell as a substitute."

This is really feasible advice.

Bird looked at Louis: "You can give it a try."

Louis turned to Nelson, a Hall of Fame coach whose opinion was also important.

Obviously, Nielsen's view is different from others.

"If we want the 'Meteor' to be effective, our starting three cannot be a kid. Without a shooter like Dale Ellis, many tactics will be difficult to play. Benj is indeed outstanding, but

His movement without the ball is not up to Dier's level."

For Bird, defense is very important.

Zhao Yuanzheng has followed Louis for many years, and he is also accustomed to giving the highest priority to defense when arranging his troops.

As for Carlisle and Budenholzer, they are also coaches who attach great importance to defense.

This is the value of Nielsen.

He reminded Louie all the time that he didn't come to Los Angeles to build another Knicks.

Nelson is right, we cannot lose sight of one thing or the other. Wilson must start at the third position, and Ellis must also start at the second position.

These two people are the basis of the "Meteor" tactic.

Moreover, if Garnett is placed at the third position, his career trajectory will basically be the same as in his previous life.

Louis didn't want him to go down that old path.

"Everyone, I need you to put aside your worries about defense." Louis began to summarize and concluded, "Defense is not our first focus, because this team is not a team that can play well in terms of personnel structure.

A defensive team. Our appeal is offense, and our direction is also offense. Therefore, when considering problems, we must focus on offense. Derek Harper will be our starting number one position in the new season. He has experience and can

Can control the situation; Dell is undoubtedly the second position, Benj is the core third position, Jasmine will start at the fourth position, and as for the fifth position, let Chris take it."

Nelson was secretly happy.

At the same time, he also admired Louis very much.

It's not easy to step out of your comfort zone, especially for someone like Louis who has led the league's trends.

It was Louis who brought the league into the defensive era. Everyone advocates physical combat and confrontation. If you don't defend, you won't be able to achieve results.

This is basically the consensus of other coaches in the league.

From this point of view, they are all students of Louis.

All teams are studying the Knicks and trying to play like them.

Nelson's Warriors were an anomaly, and now, with his departure, that team's signature "the Glitzkrieg" looks to be a thing of the past.

The NBA is about to become a game of barbarians.

It happened that at this time, the originator of this trend gave up the expertise that made him famous and chose to explore a road that no one was taking anymore.

Auerbach never tried to walk on another leg.

Many people are like this.

Change requires courage.

Bird looked at Louis seriously: "Have you made up your mind?"

"That's what we're here for," Louis said.

※※※

Players at the resort were called to the video room for the first time.

Since there are many rare attack paths in the "Meteor" tactic, the coaching staff couldn't find enough actual rounds, so they used computers to design dynamic tactical routes and made videos to help players understand.

Louis stood in front of the TV and said: "Starting from today, we will practice the tactical system of the new season in the training session - before we start, I want to ask you a question, what do you think the best offense looks like?"

Ostertag immediately stood up and flattered Louis: "It's effortless to score 120 points per game in the playoffs like the Trail Blazers did in 1993!"

Why do you say this is flattering Louis? Think about whose team the Blazers were defeated by.

"Tiger said it well, but it's a bit general in terms of specific points, because it's just a number. Can any of you tell me more specifically what the best offense should look like?"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other for about ten seconds, and finally Liu Yuqing stood up.

"Ginger Duo?"

"Are you okay Jiang Duo?"

"Brother, I'm just about to stand up, why are you still rushing to answer?"

Liu Yuqing rolled her eyes at him: "Don't make any noise, gar dog."

Because Garnett caused Liu Yuqing to be called "Jiang Duo" by the whole team, Xiao Liu retaliated in kind and gave Garnett the nickname "Jia Duo".

In China in the 1990s, calling someone a dog was a serious insult, but the United States was different. There were many people named after dogs. Not only did Garnett not mind, he was also very happy that he got someone better than Jasmine.

Better nickname.

Unfortunately, due to Liu Yuqing's lack of leadership ability, everyone prefers to call Garnett "Jasmine".

Liu Yuqing answered Louis' question: "The best offense should be smooth."

“How smooth does it have to be?”

Liu Yuqing began a surprising narrative: "When I stood in the bottom corner, preparing to use Gado's body to run to the middle, I hoped the ball holder knew what we were doing. If he knew, he would run as fast as possible

Passing the ball makes this offense completed by three people as smooth as if it were completed by me alone."

This may be the first time Liu Yuqing's teammates have heard him say so many words.

"That's a good answer, please sit down." Louis looked at the other players, "Any more? Don't hide it, say what you have to say, speak boldly."

The tragedy master stood up decisively.

"Old man, why are you trying to answer your question?" Garnett didn't know what the best offense was. He just pretended to be serious.

The tragedian asked with a smile: "Why don't you invite me first?"

"No, no, no, I won't compete with an old man like you for my position."

"Then I won't be polite."

The tragedy maker replied with a trademark smile: "You talk about the best offense, but no one ever mentions the Lakers' showtime era. I am very disappointed."

Bird smiled and said: "This may have something to do with you guys losing all the time."

Everyone laughed.

The tragedy master waved his hand to Bird to stop causing trouble, "If you ask me, the best offense mainly lies in coordination. Jiang Duo just said it very well. I will make some additions here. If three people work together to complete a beautiful

If you use positional warfare to attack, then five people can do anything on the basketball court if they work together. This not only requires the players to have sufficient abilities, but also trust each other and be full of love for each other."

"Do you still need to love so many people just to play basketball?" Wilson joked, "I'm a dedicated person, so I can't do that."

Everyone laughed, and then heard Liu Yuqing say something coldly: "Who would fall in love with Gaduo just to play basketball well? I suggest him jump off the building immediately."

"Jiang Duo, my brother is not happy if you say that!"

"Who cares if you are happy or not."

"Why do you talk so much today?"

Now, the coaching staff knows why Liu Yuqing was relegated to the sidelines for contradicting the Eagles' coaching staff.

Looking at his aggression in the video room, who can withstand this?

This was just a joke to cheer up his teammates. In the Hawks, he openly opposed the coach's arrangement of him playing the third position. The scene would only become more intense.

"Okay, does anyone else want to share their opinions?"

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

After watching last night's game, I can only hope that the men's basketball team will never be so bad that the national team is described as a poison in basketball articles.
