Chapter 188: The use of purple skills, Coach D shot and killed the shackles of fate!
"Ding, your player Covington learned skills from Antetokounmpo Death Entangle (Golden) successfully. The activated training plan has been issued, please pay attention to check it."
"Ding, your player McAve learned skills from Antetokounmpo Death Entangle (Golden) successfully. The activated training plan has been issued, please pay attention to check it."
"Ding, will you use the skill key shooter (purple) to Yao Ming?"
Du Kang frowned.
Or choose No.
"Du, are you okay?"
Seeing Du Kang suddenly frowning, Ham next to him was a little worried.
Could it be because the team lost to the Rockets at home last night?
On February 19, the Lakers played at home to face their first opponent after the All-Star Weekend, and the Rockets, the Western Conference playoff rival.
Before this game began, the Rockets' record was 36 wins and 17 losses, while the Lakers' record was 32 wins and 21 losses.
Before the game, the Rockets ranked fifth in the West and the Lakers ranked eighth in the West.
The Lakers suffered a break in this game, Kobe, Olajuwon, McGrady and Yao Ming, and lost 108 to 134 at home.
After the game, the Lakers' record turned into 32 wins and 22 losses, surpassed by the Grizzlies who defeated the Clippers at home on the same day, falling from eighth to ninth in the West.
This is the first time the Lakers have fallen out of the playoffs.
For a moment, the pressure in the entire Los Angeles became extremely huge.
As the Lakers' acting head coach, Clifford is particularly under great pressure.
The real head coach of Du Kang is naturally under a lot of pressure.
If it weren't for Kobe, Maizi and Olajuwon and other team stars performing crazy in the All-Star Game, the Lakers wouldn't have encountered the current dilemma.
As the head coach of the All-Star Game at that time, Coach D did not stop all this.
From an ideal point of view, Coach D is great.
From the perspective of interests, especially from the perspective of the Lakers head coach, Coach D failed.
The Lakers have now fallen out of the playoffs.
It will take at least ten days for Kobe and Olajuwon to come back.
Maizi will have to go back next game.
Now the competition in the Western Conference playoffs is so fierce. When Kobe and the others come back, the Lakers' record will be...
It's simply unimaginable.
But the only good news is that Yao Ming will be able to make a comeback by playing the Celtics at home in the next game.
"Du, are you really not going to intervene in the team now?"
Ham knew that Clifford was under great pressure now, but thinking of the current crisis of the Lakers, Ham still reminded him.
"Losing to the Rockets is not Steve's responsibility. He did nothing wrong, and we cannot hand over our destiny to others."
Du Kang shook his head.
Of course, Du Kang understood Ham's meaning. After the Lakers fell out of the playoffs, the league supervisor who supervised Du Kang returned to New York again.
Well, Du Kang can sit behind the coaching seat and direct the game again.
The New York Knicks' method can be described as obvious.
The New York Knicks want to control the fate of the Lakers.
Feier Jackson wants to master the fate of Coach D!
The best Lakers are the Lakers ranked eighth in the West, helping the New York Knicks to completely muddle the water in the West, making the already cruel West even more cruel.
Therefore, the Knicks will definitely not allow the Lakers to rank in the top five, nor will they allow the Lakers to fall out of the top eight.
The situation is stronger than others now, and the Lakers actually hope that Du Kang will intervene and command the team immediately.
Except for Jim Shushu who completely sees Du Kang's meaning, he does not put pressure on Du Kang.
Everyone else is putting pressure on Du Kang.
Aunt Jenny was even more crazy, constantly exaggerating the current crisis of the Lakers in the tabloids.
"Darwin, you hand over these two training plans to McAvey and Covington."
Looking at the training plan in his hand, Ham was stunned.
Now that league supervisor has returned to New York, Du can actually go to the team's training ground.
But Du still didn't go back...
Du's choice is already very obvious.
Now, he still has no intention of intervening in the team.
Ham was really moved when he thought of this.
Du is now involved in the team, and the one who hurts the most is Clifford.
In fact, it starts with the suspension of Duo.
Du seems to have always been like this.
No matter how Nash leads the team to win a game at the beginning.
He led the team to lose the game later.
Now Clifford leads the team.
Du Du did not intervene in the team when they lost.
Except for the Rockets that away game and Nash collapsed and took the initiative to ask, Du has always respected them very much.
Du also knew very well how big a blow his intervention would have been to their establishment of prestige in the team.
"Du, you are the best boss!"
Ham finished speaking seriously and left Du Kang's office with the training plan in his hand.
Looking at Ham's back, Du Kang smiled.
The Lakers' record is indeed very dangerous now.
But Du Kang always felt that with Clifford's ability, he wouldn't have fallen out of the playoffs with the Lakers.
Maybe his judgment was wrong.
But he is willing to take all the responsibility for his wrong judgment.
When Clifford accepted his request to coach the Lakers, Du Kang promised to support him forever.
It makes no sense. I just fell out of the playoffs and couldn't wait to intervene in the team.
He has dozens of games left for the suspension.
Clifford's growth is very important to the Lakers' performance in the playoffs.
Now everyone is saying that the New York Knicks are using the Lakers as a knife, but what if the Knicks' idea changes in the Western Conference playoffs? Or maybe it simply doesn't think so, what should I do?
Even if Du Kang can give suggestions in the playoffs, this suggestion needs to be implemented by Clifford.
No matter how detailed Zhuge Liang's plan is, he can't help but meet Ma Su.
Du Kang hopes Clifford can adapt to such pressure.
Compared with the pressure in the playoffs, this kind of pressure is actually nothing.
"Now I'm still focused on cultivating young players on the team."
Du Kang smiled.
Now he still has a lot of chips in his hands.
Reggie Miller's personal mission rewards the Purple Skill Key Shooter.
A team-wide strengthening training camp.
2 purple attribute potential cards.
There are 2 purple glory points, which are prepared for Yao Ming, and I will gather three to buy a golden dream card for Yao Ming to change Yao Ming's personality and develop a high-end personality for Yao Ming.
It doesn’t matter when the whole team strengthens the training camp, there is nothing to worry about.
The remaining two resources make people a little confused.
The Lakers have no suitable candidate for the key shooter in the purple class.
There is no need for veterans. Among the young players, McAvey and Antetokounmpo have problems with shooting, and Covington and Cannan are role players again.
