Latest website: My name is Rick Adelman.

Until the start of this series with the Lakers, I was still worried about how to twist the Blazers' stars into one strand.

I deliberately thought about it countless times in my mind.

Because I know that if I can't bring the stars of the Trail Blazers together, then we won't be able to beat the Lakers.

However......

Although I have talked to Kevin, Vince, Paul, and Chris many times in private recently...

But the result after each conversation...

But it makes me feel exhausted physically and mentally.

At this moment, I couldn't help but think of the happy time when I led them to the finals last year.

That was my lost youth, the prosperous years of running in the sunset with this trailblazer team.

Trailblazer, what's wrong with you?

why......

Why will you become what you are now in just a few months?

Uh......

All right!

Staples Center.

Adelman never expected that in the end the stars of the Trail Blazers would still unite.

only......

Something different from what Adelman thought was that when the stars were twisted into a rope...

On the evening of the 3rd, he was already reduced to a tool man who was specifically responsible for handing tactical boards to artillery and leather guides.

And the Staples scene...

After the Lakers played a championship match with the Grizzlies in the previous series, the Lakers who thought that waiting to work would easily solve the Blazers' Lakers as the experts predicted...

It was the same as never expected...

They held back the "My Lake Championship" all night, but they really didn't call it out all night.

so......

This Blazers win over the Lakers is called "upset", which is outrageous.

On the 3rd, in the first round of the Western Conference semifinals with the Lakers, the Blazers beat the Lakers 117 to 109 in an "upset" away game.

In the game, Paul and Carter scored 19 points, 9 assists and 21 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists respectively.

In addition, Garnett also had 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists.

Battier, who unexpectedly appeared in the Blazers' starting roster this night, scored five three-pointers for the team and passed two successful positions in the final quarter, making Marion the fifth consecutive game in this game. And the sixth personal foul.

In this game, Su Feng and Kobe feel not ideal.

The former shot 11 of 23, including free throws and three-pointers, only the Lakers got 37 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists.

The latter made 5 of 19 shots, relied on free throws to barely get 21 points.

Through the changes, the Blazers effectively limited the Lakers' offensive and defensive rhythm on the court.

Although Garnett after gaining weight is still ten kilograms lighter than Xiaojia, but relying on his excellent experience and position control, Xiaojia has no way to take him in the low position.

And come back, I usually like to fly other people's kites outside...

He was still alive by this iron-blooded wolf king.

Pierce didn't score much this time.

But with the help of teammates...

He has greatly increased Su Feng's shot cost every time he makes a shot on the court.

I have to say that after teaming up to ban the head coach, the Blazers have found their most correct way to open.

Because Garnett and Battier are very good at assisting defense.

So on the evening of the 3rd, the Blazers, who used mixed defenses throughout the game, not only successfully defended their penalty area, but even on the field. Dissolve the Lakers' offense for a while.

At the critical moment, Lu and Van Gundy did not think that they would directly sacrifice the strongest form of the Lakers-Suko took turns in singles.

However, under the Blazers’ unlimited defense strategy, coupled with the Blazers’ insiders, they can always retract in the first place...

Neither Su Feng nor Kobe can annihilate this trailblazer without touching the "God of Heaven" switch.

Moreover, when playing against the regular season, the Lakers can always rely on Su Feng to build an advantage.

Because the Blazers Galaxy battleship also has the Spanish Gemini Fernandez and Rodríguez in the combat readiness warehouse, the second team of the Lakers led by Su Feng collided with the Blazers on the spot and dismantled f4 to lead the team. In the lineup, the Lakers have turned into the lower side in terms of the overall strength of the lineup. .

Of course, in this game, the Lakers' defeat was not only due to the fact that the opponent played well, but also related to the Lakers' failure to adjust the game state in the first time after resting for nearly a week.

In addition, the previous round of the Grizzlies series also caused the Lakers to underestimate the enemy before the start of the Western Conference semifinals.

ha?

You said that in the Western Conference semifinals, it is impossible for the NBA to underestimate the enemy?

Wake up!

In the Champions League final, there were people who underestimated the enemy after leading 3-0...

How could it not be possible to get into the Western Conference semifinals?

People, why are people?

Because human beings have learned the most lessons in their long life, that is, they never learn lessons.

actually......

Before the start of this round of the Western Conference semifinals, Su Feng had already anticipated this way of losing.

only......

Even if he repeatedly asked his teammates to be serious, subconsciously, the Lakers, who have become accustomed to this season, are already destined to suffer such a catastrophe in their lives.

Su Feng knows that as the team leader, as the team leader, it is his duty to remind his teammates to be vigilant in times of peace when the team moves up as a whole.

But if it is overcorrected, it will also bring some unnecessary psychological burden to the team.

Therefore, under the premise of preparing to play at least 6 games with this trailblazer in the morning...

Su Feng doesn't think that losing at this time is a bad thing.

Because at least, this night the pioneers have proven to the world...

The Lakers have never been unbeatable.

They also have times when they are in bad shape.

In basketball games, having super stars like Su Feng and Kobe may mean that your upper limit will be very high.

But every accident on and off the court is likely to affect this upper limit.

You know, real games are not like playing games, and the abilities of the stars are fixed.

For example, before the game, XX did not sleep well last night, it is likely to affect his on-the-spot state.

Therefore, the team that has always been able to reach the final championship will not necessarily have the best star of the season.

But it must be the best team in the NBA that season.

to be honest.

Basketball is a sport of five people after all.

On this night, the Blazers' five-man team played better than the Lakers, nothing more.

"Guys, promise me, can you stop spreading negative energy one by one, okay?" After the game, in the Lakers locker room, watching the group of teammates who didn't even dare to breathe after losing, Su Feng suddenly It's fun.

As the saying goes, everything has to be viewed in two.

In Su Feng's view, these teammates lost more than one teammate after losing, you can understand that their psychological quality is not strong enough.

However, you can also understand that they are already aware of their problems, so driven by their sense of responsibility, no one dares to beep loudly at this time.

And it is obvious...

The Lakers obviously belong to the latter.

After all, as a team that carries Su Feng's "Fire Eyes" and Kobe's "Death Stars" all day long to compete...

The pressure is for this Laker...

Can that count as a problem?

Su Feng knew that at this time, in addition to indulging Kobe to use his eyes to "inspire" his teammates...

As the person responsible for singing red faces, he must also stand up and let this group of teammates breathe fresh air.

In short, no matter how many summaries and reviews are done, and no matter how many pots are thrown out of each other, it will not be possible to change the fact that the Lakers have lost.

So instead of finding your own reason...

Su Feng always prefers to find the flaws of his opponent.

Because no matter what the competitive event is, in essence, whoever makes fewer mistakes, who can make better use of the other's mistakes, will have the last laugh.

In Su Feng's previous life, why did all the Go masters shut themselves up when the "Alpha Dog" came out?

Because without AI being stupid, human beings feel despair for the first time in competitive events.

And once a certain competitive event loses the possibility of defeating the following, the weak will defeat the strong...

Then this project naturally gradually became dull.

But then again...

Just Kobe's performance this night...

How dare he play this post-match double with himself?

Given his 5-for-19 shooting performance tonight, shouldn't he be the first to be pulled out of the fight and the meeting?

"I am different from them.

I just behaved badly.

But I never thought we could easily defeat this trailblazer. "In the locker room, looking at Su Feng confidently, he saw Kobe speak solemnly.

Su Feng: "......"

What you said makes sense!

I was speechless!

…

On the 4th, the news that the Lakers lost to the Trail Blazers in the g1 battle gradually fermented...

For a time, many "yunhu honeys" felt that their sky was falling.

How to do!

Our beloved team is about to die!

Why did the Blazers suddenly become so strong!

Why is it?

Uh......

One to say one...

Su Feng really doesn't understand why, no matter what the past and this life, there will be so many people who like to talk about them after the game.

To be fair, if it weren't for the NBA's playoffs to play seven games...

Just look at these remarks that the Lakers want to gg...

Su Feng almost thought he was playing ncaa.

Why did the Trail Blazers "suddenly" become so strong?

Of course it is because they have such a background.

only......

They haven't integrated their own advantages before.

At the end of the first game, Van Gundy has actually put forward some constructive suggestions for the Trailblazers' infinite rotation and mixed defense.

For example, how should the Lakers on the court use Su Feng this buff monster to attack.

Another example is how other Lakers players should make decisions when the situation cannot be opened.

However, it doesn’t matter how much Van Gundy’s proposal made on the 4th is sharper than the nail on the head...

On the Internet, some people firmly believe that after the first game with the Blazers, the Lakers have been eliminated.

Because after putting out a bunch of high-level data and various technical statistics that are not conducive to the Lakers' first game...

These "great gods" have not only successfully discovered the various problems that currently exist in the Lakers.

And, under their description, the defense of this Trail Blazers seems impossible to be cracked.

"Believe me, the Lakers are going home for this round of the series, because this Trailblazer's infinite rotation is really abnormal!"

"I feel that the Lakers are completely cold. Even if Sue and Kobe break out at the same time, it will be difficult for them to beat the Trail Blazers."

"So, the previous series that the Lakers defeated the Grizzlies 4-0 was too bad a character. If they let the Grizzlies win one game, would they fall to this point?"

emmmm.

If it is said that the Blazers' point of view to belittle the Lakers, in Su Feng's view, at least they barely understand a little bit...

That 4 to 0 defeated the Grizzlies and defeated the character...

The truth is that only cerebral palsy can tell.

On the evening of the 5th, the Lakers and Trail Blazers' Western Conference semifinals g2 game continued at Staples Center.

In this game, in addition to the continuation of the start when he won the first game, Adelman was still the tool man who was overhead.

It's just on the court, with the change of the Lakers' thinking and play style.

This night, how can the Blazers' defense at this moment be as magical as the two teams in the first game?

On the court, in accordance with Van Gundy's advice, Su Feng increased the three-point shot after using the off-ball screen to get around.

On the other hand, Kobe also adjusted his shot structure.

Because in Van Gundy's view, the real strength of this trailblazer lies in Paul and Garnett.

So as long as the Lakers can give play to their advantages on the wing and continue to put pressure on the Trail Blazers through outside shots, the Lakers can prompt the Trail Blazers to change their defensive structure.

certainly.

For this suggestion given by Van Gundy, before the game, Director Lu also gave his own doubts.

Because once the Lakers shoot from the outside, they can't force the Blazers to change their defensive structure...

Then, the Lakers will definitely be infinitely passive on the court.

At that time, after staring at Director Lu for a few seconds, Van Gundy always felt that this guy should also be a two-year commentator before becoming a coach.

"Taylen, I know, you want to say,'You can't win the championship by shooting alone', right?" Van Gundy asked before the game, looking at Lu instructor.

Director Lu nodded, "This tactic is good for everything, but the risk is too great."

"Then Tyronn, what kind of tactics are risk-free, and what kind of game style can guarantee you a 100% win?

Sue is the best pitcher in the league today. In his 13-year career, he has made more than 3,000 three-pointers.

And even if Kobe is not as accurate as Su, as long as Kobe wants to shoot outside, then why does Vince stop him? "Staring at Guidance Lu, Van Gundy asked.

But at this time, Lu Guizhou had nothing to say instantly.

Because of the basketball game, there are no tactics that can guarantee that you can win the opponent steadily.

Especially in this kind of game where everyone's overall strength is very close.

In Van Gundy's view, instead of being passively beaten, at least choose to change actively, the fate of the Lakers is in his own hands.

Fortunately, this night, it was not only Su Feng on the Lakers' side, who had a godly help...

On the court facing Carter, in the first quarter alone, Kobe scored 3 three-pointers for the Lakers.

And at this moment...

As Van Gundy expected...

As the Lakers opened their perimeter, the Blazers couldn't provide endless support to their wing as they did before.

In addition, in the second quarter of the game, once there was an opportunity on the court, the Lakers' benches also played more resolutely.

On the sidelines, on the Lakers bench, looking at this trailblazer that could have become better, Van Gundy couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I have to say, we are really lucky."

Upon hearing this, Director Lu was taken aback for a moment, then for a moment, and then asked: "Jeff, why did you say this?"

Van Gundy shook his head and said: "Because if Rick is a defensive coach, then in terms of the composition of this Trailblazer, he can definitely increase the team's defense by another level.

And in that way...

The cost of betting against them in the game is different. "

In Van Gundy’s view, if you compare a basketball game to a gambling table between the two sides...

At this moment, the Stud facing the Lakers...

The trailblazers led by Adelman were already panicked.

Especially in the second half of the game.

In order to prevent Suko from making waves on the outside, the Blazers inexplicably allowed Marion to complete an empty cut on the court.

In the end, what was completely different from what the cloud experts thought after the g1 war that it would be difficult for the Lakers to win this trailblazer even if Suko broke out at the same time is...

This night, the Lakers not only won.

And in the eyes of cloud experts after the g2 war, Suko is far from even talking about simultaneous outbreaks.

In this game, the two teams finished with a score of 104 to 121.

In the game, Su Feng scored 38 points, 11 rebounds, and 5 assists for the Lakers.

Kobe scored 29 points, 7 rebounds, and 8 assists for the Lakers.

Just looking at the score, Su Feng and Kobe didn't seem to get much more points than the G1 game combined.

However, as the scoring structure of the two players changed in this game, the other Lakers players were fully scheduled.

only......

Speaking of it, it feels like a billion points is incredible.

Because on this night, it's not someone else who makes the Lakers players have to resolutely shoot from the outside...

It was Jeff Van Gundy who insisted on forcing Alan Houston to make a "three-pointer on the line".

Moreover, Van Gundy's reason was still very good.

"Three points are two points, isn't it one more point?

In addition, don’t you know that a 3-pointer with 3 of 10 shots is basically the same as a 2-pointer with 5 of 10 shots in terms of efficiency? "Before the game, just as Director Lu was hesitant...

Van Gundy looked at Director Lu with a puzzled look and asked.

As a result, it turns out.

On this night, Su Feng and Kobe combined to hit 11 three-pointers, which indeed destroyed the Blazers' defense to a large extent.

"You said, why didn't I want to understand these truths when I was coaching the Knicks?" Van Gundy asked curiously this evening, looking at Lu Director.

Director Lu: "..."

You tm ask me...

Who can I ask?

"By the way, Jeff, do you have ideas for the next game?" After the game, Lu asked with his arm around Van Gundy's shoulder.

On the sidelines, after shook his head, Van Gundy immediately looked at Su Feng, who was still on the court with Kobe.

"He can guide us to a farther future.

Tyron, if you don’t understand that the winner of this game is Sue, not me...

Then I suggest you to retire as soon as possible and give me the position of Lakers coach as early as possible! "Looking at the guidance of Lu solemnly, Van Gundy said, "See you in a hurry."

Director Lu: "..."

really!

Since becoming the head coach of the Lakers...

Everyday people want to harm me!

but......

What Mentor Lu, who thought Van Gundy was taking the opportunity to frustrate him, didn't know...

The words Van Gundy just said were definitely not a compliment to Su Feng.

Because the more I chatted with Su Feng about the details of tactics...

Van Gundy felt that the horror of this man was beyond the imagination of the world.

"There is no problem that cannot be solved by a three-pointer.

If there is one, then enter another one. "

On the morning of the 4th, before the rest of the Lakers came to the training hall, watching Su Feng, who was warming up with Kobe through a bullfight on the court, Van Gundy would never forget the way Su Feng looked at him.

And it was at that moment...

Van Gundy discovered...

Whether it’s the respected John Davis, or Spoelstra, who has been recognized by everyone as a great marshal...

seem......

Nothing great.

"Tmd, how come it's cheaper Tyron this kid?"

This night, looking at the silly appearance of Director Lu...

Van Gundy was desperate.

And what makes Van Gundy even more desperate is...

At the press conference after the game, UU Read www.uukānshu.com when people asked why the Lakers shot so crazy from outside in this game...

Instructor Lu also copied his words intact.

Van Gundy: "..."

no!

Can't you tm have some understanding and things of your own?

Guidance Lu: As the head coach, copy the tactics of your own assistant, can that be called copying?

That's called being good at listening to suggestions and analyzing and integrating. Do you as a teaching assistant understand?

Van Gundy: "..."

…

ps: It is still almost the number of words to return to yesterday's short chapter =. =, but work and rest can't be messy, so let's just use 10,000 words on the 24th! mwah!
