Chapter 369 Attacking Characters
"What discovery?" Mike D'Antoni said absent-mindedly, because the Lakers' consecutive defeats had made him feel the huge pressure of public opinion and upper-level pressure.The management has hinted that this situation must be reversed immediately, otherwise they cannot guarantee what kind of team changes will occur in the future.

But for this team right now, Mike D'Antoni finds it very difficult, not only on the court, but also off the court and in the locker room.Everyone said that he had the superstar card in his hand to do things, but when it was his turn, D'Antoni "struck his brains" for a while.Who said it's easy to be a "superstar nanny"?This is simply an inhuman mental torture!
If it wasn't for losing face, Mike D'Antoni really wanted to ask the "Zen Master" Phil Jackson for advice, because in the entire league, he is the leading top player, almost unmatched.

The problem of the Lakers is far more than the "superstar conflict", but basketball is about players competing on the court, so the first problem is to solve the team's locker room.Otherwise, there is no way to start any work.

Therefore, Mike D'Antoni has been thinking about this issue now, and he didn't pay much attention to Nash's words.

Nash also saw the state of Mike D'Antoni, but he didn't care, and continued to say: "Have you read the statistics of tonight's game?" "Steve, so what? Didn't read it So what? We have lost five games in a row! You should know that in the field of basketball, as long as you lose, any statistics are meaningless." Mike D'Antoni seemed to be overwhelmed by the recent poor record of the Lakers. The blow came, and I was a little frustrated.

"Mike, don't forget that you also won the best head coach in the league back then. You have a little confidence in the team and yourself, okay?"

"Steve, I think so too, but now the team obviously can't play the style I want, what can I do?" Mike D'Antoni shook his head and said: "Well, if Howard can be more obedient Well, I really don't understand why he doesn't want to play pick and roll with you? Obviously this is the best choice for him and the team." "Who knows? Everyone has their own personal Think about it." Nash obviously didn't want to talk about Dwight Howard, so he went back to the original topic and said: "Look at this column of data, Mike, you will find new things." Nash pointed to the post-match technology Statistics table said.

Out of respect for Nash, Mike D'Antoni looked at the place Nash was pointing at, where a line of technical statistics was neatly listed: 22 points, 13 rebounds, 3 blocks and 3 assists.

"How is it? Mike, do you see something?" Steve Nash said with a smile.

"What do you see? Tang performed well in the game tonight? The data is comprehensive?" Mike D'Antoni looked at the data sheet and said.

"No, no, no, that's not the point, Mike." Steve Nash said: "Look at this statistic, 12 of 9 shots, 75% from the field, 100% from assists, 100% from air cuts, Do you see it now?" "A 100% assist rate? A 100% cut and run scoring rate? This... What do you mean?" Mike D'Antoni finally came to his senses, and quickly looked up at Steve. Steve Nash said: "China Hot has his potential? But is it possible? Look at his scoring last season and this season, he is far from that person." "Indeed." Steve Nash He didn't deny it, and continued to say: "His scoring average is not comparable to that person, and even in the face-to-basket attack, the former is lacking in ability. But physical fitness, is he really inferior to that person?" Nash said: "I think he's probably better physically than that guy, more explosive."

"Is there any comprehensive physical measurement data for China Hot?" Mike D'Antoni asked.

"Not yet." Nash said: "Because China Tang is a player who joined the NBA halfway, so the rookie physical test has not been conducted at all. Besides, many people just play the rookie physical test casually, or even don't go to it at all. Yes, there are a lot of people around. They can’t meet the standards at all.” Nash’s words are true. For ordinary third- and fourth-rate rookies, they may take this opportunity to express themselves, but for first-rate rookies or even super-first-rate rookies, they are all He has reservations about the rookie physical test.For example, James, who is the hottest player in the league right now, has never participated in the 03 rookie physical test. Most of the versions circulated on the Internet are guesses and comparisons made by netizens themselves. The real James physical test data has basically never been circulated to the outside world.

Another example is that there is another kind of person who directly puts water in the rookie physical test in order not to be selected by the Millennium Bad team.Among modern stars, the most typical example is Kevin Durant.In the rookie physical test, this guy not only failed to push the bench press once, but also jumped out of a vertical jump of 29 inches in the bounce test.Forget about the previous item, you can’t push it if you can’t push it, but the vertical bounce of 29 inches on the spot?Isn't this a joke?And the 12-meter test exceeds [-] seconds.This is obviously a deliberate attempt to lower his draft performance.

Some people may say that Durant is so tall, and it is normal for 100 meters to exceed 12 seconds, but if you look at Yi Di's 12-meter test data, it is exactly [-] seconds.In other words, Yi Di is faster than Durant, which is a bit ridiculous.This is not to look at Yi Di, but in actual combat, Durant is definitely faster than Yi Di.Those who watch the ball a little bit more will have obvious feelings and judgments.

Therefore, the rumors that Durant did not want to be selected by Portland back then became rampant.

But whether it is true or false, it all shows that the NBA rookie physical test is not something that must be done.

It is actually a voluntary act, not compulsive.

And it's not just the NBA. The biggest training camp before the draft, the Chicago United Training Camp, is also the same. Take 2014 as an example. Wiggins, Parker, and Embiid, the three most popular players in the NBA draft at the time, did not participate in the physical test.Because the physical test is just a tool to improve your draft pick. If your draft pick is already very high, it doesn't really mean much to participate in this or not.

So after Tang Qian joined the NBA, he never conducted a systematic physical test again.

"But you can't just judge by feeling." Mike D'Antoni was still very cautious and didn't draw a conclusion right away.

"I remember there was a hot physical test data report on the Internet, but the authenticity needs to be verified." Nash said after thinking about it.

"I have also read the physical test data. Generally speaking, I feel that it is a bit too exaggerated. It is probably artificially created by Chinese hot fans."

"It's easy to prove it, we just need to go to the next door and ask, isn't it?" Nash said.

"Next door? Steve, what do you mean?" Mike D'Antoni asked.

"The origin of this data seems to come from the Los Angeles Defenders, so don't we know if it's true or not as soon as we ask?" Nash said: "It really doesn't work, let Tang Qian test it a little bit."

"Well, that's fine." Mike D'Antoni nodded after thinking for a while and said, "But does he really have this potential? Steve?"

Because in D'Antoni's original vision, Tang Qian was a pure blue-collar player, and it was a last resort for him to help Nash with the pick-and-roll.After all, the cooperation attitude of "Warcraft" is really bad.

"I don't know," Nash said, "but we can do a little testing."

"How to test?" Mike D'Antoni asked.

"In the next game, I will increase the proportion of assists for him. If he can grasp it..." Nash said: "Then Mike, you need to redesign the team's tactical allocation."

"Okay, let's do that." Mike D'Antoni nodded and said.

Tang Qian lives an extremely fulfilling life every day, because there are too many aspects that he needs to train and strengthen.

Consolidation training for rebounds and positioning; high pick-and-roll training; strength training; daily team training; and watching Amare Stoudemire's offensive videos.This habit has been developed since last season, because Tang Qian discovered that cutting off the ball is currently the fastest way to enhance his scoring methods and ability.So he has been sticking to this little habit since he broke through the offensive crystal brick last season.

After all, Tang Qian's goal is far from being a top blue-collar worker.

It's just that the rice needs to be eaten bite by bite, and things need to be done step by step. He can't lose the watermelon because of sesame seeds.After all, the foundation of his foothold in the league now is the defensive end.

He still clearly distinguishes between primary and secondary.

Who told him not to be the almighty protagonist of competitive novels?

So moving forward steadily is what he should do now.

But the pace of future development disrupted his original plan.

On January 1, US time, the Lakers played against the Oklahoma City Thunder at home. Compared with last season, the gap between the two teams has widened this season.The Lakers are outside the top ten in the West, but what about the Thunder?This season, they are making great strides, even in the Western Division where the wolves and tigers are like clouds, they still can't stop their strong light.The current 11 wins and 27 losses, the first place in the Western District, is the Thunder's current strength performance.As the "double youngsters" become more and more mature, it is difficult for the Lakers to be evenly matched with them.

Kevin Durant scored 42 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists in this game, and his shooting percentage was as high as 64%. This data completely surpassed Kobe's 28 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 34.8% shooting hit rate.This season is a watershed for Durant to completely move towards high efficiency. His field goal percentage per game has exceeded 50% for the first time, and he has also practiced a stunt this season, which is called "big arm swing".This "miracle of touching porcelain" Durant has been practicing for a long time, but because his personal skills and shooting accuracy are not up to standard, he used to "occasionally have a flash of inspiration" in the NBA.But this season is different. Durant's various skills have matured, and his shooting accuracy has reached an astonishing level. Therefore, this trick has gradually become more frequent on the field.

With a shooting percentage of more than 50%, coupled with the newly practiced large-scale frontal change, Durant began to score and gradually became easy to use.Especially the latter. In the past, Durant's breakthroughs were very mechanical, old-fashioned, and slow, far from being at the top level.But from the 2012-2013 season, he began to change his body frequently and drastically.According to ESPN's game statistics, Durant's move drastically changed the direction of his body, and the limit distance can be pulled out by about 2 meters, which made up for his original defect of poor breakthrough ability.The so-called lack of speed is filled with the range of direction change. This is also an exclusive skill of Kevin Durant. Others want to use it, either because they are not as tall as him, with such long arms, or because of their height. The wingspan is up to the standard, but the flexibility can't keep up with the rhythm.Therefore, Durant's breakthrough skills began to take shape.

Super accurate shooting ability + newly developed skill package for changing directions, which directly led to the difficulty of defending Durant soaring.

Defenders had to reduce the close distance, but in this way, Durant had a new trick, which was the "swinging arm swing" that came into being.As long as you stick too tightly, Durant can use his super wingspan to get up directly and win two free throws.Although Durant's peak free throw numbers were in the 09-10 season, if you look closely, you will find that although Durant had a lot of free throws that season, most of them were hard kills to the basket, and high-intensity physical contact was exchanged for here.As far as Durant's body shape is concerned, it is actually not suitable to do this at all, because his body will not be able to bear it after a long time. In the 09-10 season, Durant was fierce in the regular season, but in the playoffs, he suddenly slumped. Not only did his scoring average drop from 30+ points to 25 points per game, but his shooting percentage dropped even more, from 47% to 35%. [-]%.Of course there is the incompatibility of entering the playoffs for the first time, but the decline is so large that it cannot be a unilateral decision.

So in the 10-11 season, Durant gave up the method of "fighting free throws" last season, and his average free throws per game dropped by about 2 times in an instant.Even in the 11-12 season, his average free throws per game did not show any trend of improvement, but fell below the bottom line of 8+.The lethality dropped again and again.But this season, the situation is different, because Durant has returned with the "magic skill of touching porcelain". Tailor-made for Kevin Durant.So in the next two seasons, Durant's average free throws per game were as high as 9+ or above. Although it was not at the top 10+ level, it also rose to above the quasi-top level.

It wasn't until the 14-15 season that the league began to ban this "magic skill of touching porcelain", that Kevin Durant's average free throws per game returned to normal, and it never returned to above 8+ in the next few seasons.But now it's the 12-13 season, and it happens that Durant has made great achievements. The league doesn't care about the time, and it is inevitable to use the Lakers to practice.

Among the 42 points in this game, free throws accounted for more than 10+, but what about Kobe?Fighting desperately and rushing inside, he got the same number of free throws.In addition, Russell Westbrook is also developing in the direction of "Megatron" this season, and the posture of a triple-double maniac has just shown his glory. With 27 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists, the quasi-triple-double performance also perfectly suppressed Steve Nash of the Lakers.

Nash scored 8 points, 11 assists and 2 rebounds in this game. At first glance, he is not as good as the quasi-triple-double Westbrook.But he allowed Tang Qian to surpass Dwight Howard again in scoring in this game, with 17 points in the game, ahead of Howard's 16 points.And the shooting rate exceeded 70% again.

Sure enough, this kid has the shadow of Amare Stoudemire back then.

Although the technique of holding the ball and the basket alone is far from the latter, but the air-cut running position and the roll after the pick-and-roll already have the 6-7 success power of Amare Stoudemire back then.With this alone, Nash can stimulate Tang Qian's offensive firepower.

Don't forget, Steve Nash, he is the No. 1 player in the league who can improve the data of his teammates most.

With him, as long as you cooperate well, it will not be difficult at all to get a premium contract in the future.

Since Howard doesn't want to do this, it's okay to change someone. Anyway, according to Nash, Tang Qian's physical fitness is not much different from the former.And what he likes the most is to pair with athletic inside players who are willing to pick and roll.

After the loss, Steve Nash found Mike D'Antoni again and said, "Mike, how is it? Does this kid mean something?" "Of course, Steve, there is no doubt about it." Mike D'Antoni Anthony is also a "small ball master", a man who has set off a small ball storm in the league, so under deliberate observation, he did find Tang Qian's goodness.

"Steve, look at this again. This is the physical test data I sent the assistant coach to the Los Angeles Defenders."

Nash took a look, his eyes widened immediately, and he said loudly, "Is this true? It can't be a fake, right?"

"When I saw it for the first time, I had a similar expression to yours." Mike D'Antoni said, "But I have personally called to verify that this physical test data is absolutely true and does not involve water." Yes, is it? It looks like..." Steve Nash smiled and said, "I still underestimated this friend from the East."

"Then Mike, shall we start?" Steve Nash asked.

"Of course." Mike D'Antoni said: "Now the team has suffered a 6-game losing streak, and it is getting farther and farther away from the top eight in the Western Conference. In order to improve the record and keep my job as the head coach, what else can I do?"

"Okay~Mike~ Come on~ Bring out our spirit in Phoenix!"

"Fine~"

Mike D'Antoni replied.
