NBA Dynasty Sniper - Chapter 364 Locker room problem

Latest website: Zhao Dong punched in the three quarters and played only 30 minutes, scoring a triple-double of 28 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals and 6 blocks.

This game went beyond everyone's expectations from the very beginning.

I thought the Lakers could wrestle with the Knicks, and even have the upper hand, but from the first minute, it was a one-sided game that caused everyone to drop their jaws.

After the game, although Zhao Dong played only three quarters, he was still rated as the best in the game and accepted media interviews on the spot.

A reporter from the Los Angeles Sports Daily asked: "Flying Dragon, please comment on this game."

Zhao Dong organized the language and said: "This game can be divided into three stages. After the opening stage, with our tactics, we can say that we stunned the Lakers and completely restricted O'Neal.

In the second stage, the Lakers replaced Ben and replaced Horry. O'Neal got the chance to single me. Then we immediately changed our defensive tactics and double-teamed him at the basket. At this stage, we also defended O'Neal and prevented the Lakers from attacking.

Then in the third stage, the Lakers did not turn the tide of the battle. Their morale was depressed, and no one could stand up and unify the team. They became a set of sand on their own. This is the worst stage for the Lakers. .

This is a game that no one expected. We have won a huge tactical victory, and the coaching staff has embodied their importance. "

"Do you think the Lakers failed this game?" the reporter asked again.

"It can be said that this is not a manifestation of the Lakers' true strength, especially in the third stage, they completely collapsed. If this is the finals, it will be a very poor performance." Zhao Dongdao.

"What do you think the Lakers should do?" the reporter asked again.

"In the first two stages, the Lakers failed tactically. This is more of a problem with the coaching staff. Of course, there are defects in the lineup, but this is secondary. What the Lakers should solve is the problems exposed in the third stage. The cohesion is not enough, the willpower is not tenacious, we were defeated in the first quarter, such a team is not qualified to face us in the finals." Zhao Dong said.

The Lakers had already returned to the locker room at this time. A large group of reporters followed and asked for an interview, but they were all rejected. There was an unprepared defeat, or even a rout. No player was in the mood to accept the interview.

After the players entered the locker room, no one spoke, the bathroom went into the bathroom, rested, and the atmosphere in the locker room was very poor.

"Jerry, there is still a problem with our lineup..."

"Is it inside? It's hard to trade now..."

Phil Jackson and Jerry West stayed outside and they talked.

This game disappointed both of them.

Especially West, who worked so hard to build this lineup, but ushered in a defeat under the Knicks. He couldn't accept it, and he was in a very bad mood.

At this time, the Los Angeles Sports reporter who had just interviewed Zhao Dong rushed to the locker room, looked at the door of the locker room, and said to West: "Jerry, I interviewed Feilong just now. He said something, I I think you need to know."

"Oh, John, say it quickly." West said quickly.

The reporter named John repeated what Zhao Dong said, and finally said: "I think he is right. Our most important issue is not the lineup, but the dressing room, but the cohesion of the team and the willpower of the team. If you don’t solve this, no matter how strong the lineup is. If you solve this, then there is the tactical issue, and finally the lineup issue."

West nodded thoughtfully, glanced at the locker room, and then at Phil Jackson. He did not speak, but patted John on the shoulder to express his gratitude.

Phil Jackson was a little upset. John put the tactical issue before the lineup issue, but he was not good at opposing it. He just said: "O'Neal's character is not as strong as the flying dragon, and the control of the locker room is really not so strong, and Kobe's character... …I think it is possible to trade a veteran player to stabilize the locker room and to reconcile the relationship between Kobe and other players."

This is a good suggestion, and West nodded.

An hour later, the two teams held a post-match press conference.

The Lakers conference hall was crowded with reporters, with Rulin's cameras in front of them, and the sound of shutters came and went one after another.

"Coach Jackson, what do you think is the problem with our tactics in this game?" a reporter asked.

Phil Jackson pondered and said: "The tactical problem is not the most important. Our main problem is that after the score is behind, the morale of the team is easily destroyed, and then the teams fight separately without cooperation. This is Our main problem, the most important problem."

He deliberately avoided the tactical problem, because that was his problem.

But the reporter asked: "Mr. Coach, can we only talk about tactics? Your tactics did not allow O'Neal's strength to be reflected. Your tactics always allow him to face double doubles at the basket, or even double teams. Multiplayer teamwork, how are you going to solve this problem?"

Phil Jackson looked a bit ugly. After the Bulls lost to the Knicks, he had to face such a censure. Now he has come to the Lakers and he is in such a bad mood.

At this time, he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with Jordan, because if Jordan hadn't forced Zhao Dong away, he would not have encountered these, and he would be Zhao Dong's head coach.

Now Jordan follows Zhao Donghun, and with the support of Zhao Dong, he even owns a big football team like the Mavericks. He has to continue to face this situation. When he thinks of this, he feels that Jordan interfered in the operation of the team. The behavior is really fucking.

If it weren't for Jordan, he would definitely have won the Bulls seven championships now, and would have won eight championships this season.

He cleared up his mood and said: "There are actually ways to solve the tactical problem. For example, when Ben Wallace is on the court, when Shaq attracts double doubles at the basket, we can let Ben go to hold the ball. People, do pick-and-rolls. We can also launch flanking attacks. This is all possible, and there are many solutions."

The reporter immediately asked: "But sir, your adjusted tactics did not solve the problem."

Phil Jackson shook his head and said: "The game is changing rapidly. I can only choose one of the tactics. It is impossible to play two tactics at the same time? I can only test one of the tactics. I need to know which tactic is the most suitable. Isn’t that what the regular season does?

But the change was too fast. The quarter was not over, and Feilong repeatedly blocked Shaq and capped him. Our player's psychology changed and was directly destroyed.

I will adjust my tactics later, but I can’t execute my tactics correctly on the court. This game disappointed me and I’m sorry. "

Oni, who is sitting next to him, rolls his eyes at hearing, Phil, which one can't be opened, which one do you pick up, what are you saying is not good, why do you mention me?

What Phil Jackson said, the reporter accepted it, without rebutting or asking, so he went on to say: "So, the tactical issue is not the most important. As I said earlier, the team’s ideological issues, willpower issues, The locker room unity issues, these are the first issues we have to solve."

"Phil, are you saying that there is a problem in our dressing room?" a reporter asked loudly.

"No, no, I didn't mean there was a problem in the locker room, I mean..."

Phil Jackson was really annoying. After pressing this question, the question emerged again. He could only reluctantly explain: "...We need a more united locker room, a more stable locker room."

However, how he explained that the issue of disunity in the Lakers locker room was exposed by the media.

The next day, on the 29th, various relevant news appeared in major media.

But that's something to say. After the press conference, Phil Jackson and Jerry West discussed it, and then stopped the players who were leaving and wanted to talk about it.

The atmosphere in the dressing room is still not good, and he doesn't speak much, and O'Neill, who has always been in charge of funny, doesn't bother to say anything.

As the general manager and a famous Lakers, Jerry West said at the beginning: "We lost the game and everyone was disappointed. I understand this very well.

However, what we have to do now is to solve the problem, and we must solve the problem. If we do not solve the problem, we will still be the losers next time we meet Niels. "

Having said that, he looked at O'Neal, then at Kobe, and Ron Harper, and asked: "What do you think?"

When the question was over, these people had no choice but to express their opinions.

O'Neill first said: "Yes, Jerry, I think you are right, we need to solve the problem."

Ron Harper continued: "Then solve it, sir."

Kobe raised his head in silence and said coldly: "We need to work harder and work harder instead of doing nothing. This is the core of all problems."

The atmosphere in the dressing room just moved a little, and it froze again in an instant.

Kobe has high demands on his teammates, even for O'Neal. He has always disliked O'Neal's laziness. This sentence clearly shows his accusation against his teammates.

West touched his forehead. He was very optimistic about Kobe. Otherwise, he would not trade the main center Divac for Kobe in 1996. In the second season, Kobe was promoted to the All-Star starter. In the third season, he would let Kobe. Kobe controlled the Lakers' ball and became the core of the Lakers' perimeter.

And Kobe did not let him down. He worked hard for several consecutive offseasons, and his persistence in basketball and victory performed very well, and he has a solid superstar foundation.

But Kobe's character gave him a headache, unable to integrate with his teammates, and out of place.

At this time Phil Jackson stepped up and said: "I think Kobe is right, we all need to work harder, otherwise once we meet the Knicks, or even meet the Knicks in the finals, we will never have a chance.

For the Knicks, for the Wyvern, I think I have the most say here, because that is a team that Jordan’s Bulls can’t beat. Even if they lost most of the champions this season, they are still very strong. Extraordinarily powerful.

So I want to say, as Kobe said, without redoubled efforts, we have no chance at all. In the end, we can only look up and watch the Knicks win the championship, and we are losers. "

When Kobe heard that Phil Jackson was supporting him, he couldn't help but feel refreshed. Except for West, no one on the team agreed with his dedication to basketball and victory.

Phil Jackson continued: "Shaq, you are the boss of the team, do you agree with me?"

O'Neal didn't want to lose again, let alone the humiliating buckle that Zhao Dong had knocked over, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Agree, we can't fail anymore."

"so……"

Phil Jackson scanned all the players and said: "We must twist into a rope, not a piece of loose sand, in order to have a chance to defeat the Wyvern Knicks.

You have seen it, and you should know how united the Knicks are.

For example, they are currently playing a three-guard tactic. All three guards need to hold the ball, but whose hand is the ball? Who assigns it? Did the Knicks explode with the ball?

No, the Knicks have never had a problem with the ball. They are too stable and united. They can explode all their abilities. This is the most fundamental reason for their strength. "

When Phil Jackson said this, Ron Harper was a little embarrassed. In this game, he was upset with Kobe and sometimes refused to pass the ball to him.

Kobe, very happy, he thinks Jackson is talking about Ron Harper.

However, Phil Jackson is not talking about specific people, but the issue of ball rights. He hopes to make everyone understand that sharing ball rights is what they should do, and the basis of ball rights distribution must have a tactical rationality.

Next, he explained this question repeatedly.

As a head coach, one of the things he is good at is to adjust the emotions of the players, the relationship within the team, and stimulate the potential of the players.

With his efforts, the atmosphere in the Lakers locker room finally changed.

Solved the problem of ball rights, he began to solve the problem of O'Neal and Kobe.

O'Neal is so talented that he doesn't train very hard. This is the crux of the contradiction between him and Kobe.

This problem was also the same in the previous life, but it did not appear so early, but in this life Kobe has worked harder and stronger than the previous life, so this problem appeared earlier.

At the same time, O'Neal's character is very funny off the court, playing and making trouble, which is completely opposite to Kobe, who has a silent character, and the two can't get along.

But to completely solve the problem between O'Neal and Kobe, he doesn't have the ability, nor does Jerry West, because O'Neal is the current boss, and Kobe is the team's rising star and the established perimeter core.

The reason why Phil Jackson first talked about the ball rights issue just now was because he saw that there was a problem between Kobe and point guard Ron Harper, and between the two, Kobe is the future of the team, and even now. Harper is far less important than Kobe, so he has no scruples and solves this problem well.

But between O'Neill and Kobe, he can't really solve it, he can only mediate and seek common ground while reserving differences.

"Shaq, what do you want to do when we go to Madison Square Garden?" he asked.

"I want to buckle that guy, buckle him!" When he mentioned this, O'Neill's eyelashes were furious.

"But, Shaq, you need help. The flying dragon is too fast. Without the help of your teammates, you can hardly do it. If they still double-team you without the ball, you will have difficulty even catching the ball."

Phil Jackson started to lead, he said: "You can let Kobe attack from the weak side, attract the defensive attention of the dragon, and then you can block him, what do you think?"

"Why don't you arrange such a fight today?" O'Neill said angrily.

Phil Jackson said helplessly: "Shaq, haven't you recovered from the failure? You should calmly analyze all the details of this game.

Have you forgotten ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Kobe's weak side offense is one of the regular season tactics, isn't it? And in the triangle tactics, after Kobe gives you the ball on the strong side, he cuts into the basket, which can also create a chance for you to buckle him after attracting the defense of the dragon.

Kobe also played a lot of flanking attacks tonight, and cut a lot, haven't you seen these? No, you just ignored it. You lack cooperation with him, and you play differently. After you get the ball, you can't pass it. "

O'Neal nodded helplessly and said, "I was messed up by that **** Flying Dragon tonight."

Everyone was amazing, and they were knocked down in the first quarter. This is not a problem for one person, but a problem for everyone.

But Phil Jackson is very clear that this is not everyone's problem, this is O'Neal's problem.

O'Neal is the boss. As the core of the team, after being repeatedly humiliated and beaten by Zhao Dong, he failed to adjust his mentality in time, let alone adjust the mentality and morale of the players, which caused the team to be destroyed in the first quarter. This is the most important thing. s reason.

Simply put, tonight's O'Neal performed too poorly and did not fulfill the duties of a team leader and core.
