Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 81



Even if the adaptability is criticized, Phil Jackson is a great coach because he is good at coaching players and making potential players great.

There is Bole in the world, and then there is Qianlima. A thousand mile horse is often found, but Bole is not.

This is an important reason for Guo Xu's persistence in joining the Lakers. If a young player can play under a famous coach in the early stage of his career, the chance of success is far greater than that of a player playing in a bad team. Environment makes people.

Ray Allen and Kobe are both 96 golden generation. Ray Allen was selected by the Timberwolves in the fifth place, and Kobe was selected by the Hornets in 13th place. Both teams are in small cities and have poor star making ability. As a result, Kobe was sent to Los Angeles, and Ray Allen was sent to Milwaukee, a smaller city. From the beginning, it was destined that Ray Allen would not be better than Kobe.

Guo Xu's previous life, before Jackson took charge of the Lakers, Kobe's scoring efficiency was not high. In the 1998-99 season, he played 37.9 minutes per game, only getting 19.9 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists. At that time, not many people were optimistic about Kobe, even if he was selected as an all star. After Jackson was in charge, he gradually became a superstar.

What is the purpose of basketball tactics? The answer is to create opportunities. In order to create a mobile phone on the offensive side, the defensive end is to eliminate the opportunity of the opponent.

Small play big advantage is speed, big advantage is height, these are opportunities, so pick and roll tactics have been tried and tested. It is also an opportunity for a player with a strong ability to fight directly with the ball.

If a person can guarantee scoring efficiency in the face of a single defense, does the team need complex tactical coordination? On the contrary, when a person feels he can dominate the game, will he pass? Will he lead the team? Will he remain modest? Will he listen to the coach?

This potential player needs not a tactician, but a guide.

Only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. Jackson is known as "Zen master" because he has "Zen spirit".

The stronger the person is, the more likely he / she will feel that he / she should undertake more; the more paranoid he / she is, the more likely he / she is to become paranoid; the more paranoid, the more likely he / she is to go on the road of cancer.

The star thinks that he should bear more, so he takes 30 or 40 shots, cuts down 30 or 40 points, arranges every attack, even grabs the coach's tactical board, and then the team loses. Jordan used to be like this. Without Jackson, Jordan would not be the "God of basketball.".

Jackson was able to make the top 10 stars in history obediently and attack according to his own arrangement. When the singles were played, when it was time to pass, when it was time to pass, to lay down his body defense. At the same time, Jackson also allows character players to play some subtle role, which is his greatness.

Some people say that Jordan, Kobe and O'Neal are among the top ten in history, so it is wrong to say that they have made Phil Jackson. To be precise, all three of them have the potential to become one of the top ten players in history. According to Jackson's path, they finally succeeded and made Jackson.

Jackson is sharpening Guo Xu's edges and corners to prevent him from becoming a selfish player with too much confidence. In addition, he has to confront defense experts to tap his potential.

Guo Xu can understand the coach's idea, his thought is very mature, but the external obstacles still appear.

Guo Xu in training has been with the reserve team to hold the ball main attack, caused Isaiah - Lederer's dissatisfaction, this old man has not started the pre-season match, went to the coach group to make trouble, asked to increase the ball right.

He averaged 17.9 shots per game last season. When the Lakers became a substitute, he would have to play without the ball?

After listening to Lederer's complaints, Jackson asked, "Isaiah, what's the purpose of your coming to the Lakers?"

"To help the Lakers defend their title, win a championship ring, change people's opinion of me and prove that they are not cancer." Lederer's mechanical reply was all about the scene, which was what the agent and Kupchak said in the negotiation.

Jackson said with a smile: "prove that you're not a cancer, you're likely to fight for a big contract next summer, so you're not here to fight for the ball, are you?"

Lederer nodded. There was no need to lie about it. This year he wanted to get a big contract, but no team was willing to give it to him, so he chose the Lakers.

Jackson added: "the Lakers don't have the salary space to give you a big contract, you know that from the beginning, so you can't play for the Lakers for a long time, only this season. Jason is a potential rookie. He has played at least two seasons in the Lakers. He has more potential and is worth cultivating than you. Can you understand why I gave Jason the ball right

Lederer of course can understand, immediately there is no word, who will give up the cultivation of potential new players for the sake of a prick who only plays for the Lakers for a year?

It is the way that Jackson communicates with his players. He is good at putting serious relationships on the table, but it's hard to refute even though he's slapping his face. At that time, Rodman could only obey his arrangement because he was unreasonable.

Jackson's tone was gentle, but Lederer could hear a little threat. If he continues to make trouble without reason, there will be only one outcome, that is, he will be fired by the Lakers, because he is not here to help the Lakers defend the championship, but to seize the right to the ball. It is useless for him not to admit it at a glance.If he is fired by the Lakers if he can't finish this season, his NBA career will be basically over. There will be no team to give him any more performance opportunities. The actions of the Lakers will prove that he is an incurable cancer.

Lederer is a problem player, but he is not mentally retarded. He dare not mention the ball right any more.

Jackson slapped first, then gave a sweet date. "I know you're upset, so I'll give you a chance to prove yourself. Kobe won't play for a long time in the preseason. If you get the ball right to lead the team and ensure the pre-season record, I will consider giving you more performance opportunities and playing time in the regular season. Can you accept it

"Yes." Lederer replied that he had no choice at all, and that promise was better than nothing.

"Then you go back to have a good rest and play hard tomorrow." Jackson smiles and orders to leave.

After Lederer left, assistant manager Rambis asked, "if you give him the ball right in pre-season, do you want Jason to play without the ball?"

"No, I'm going to reduce Jason's playing time in the preseason and let him conserve his strength for the regular season. He can attack with the ball, the rhythm of the ball is good, he does well in training, and doesn't need to run in too much Jackson said faintly.

"Do you trust him so much?" Rambil said with a smile. He guessed that Jackson didn't want his opponents to find out Guo Xu's real situation as soon as possible. There was no video in the summer league and drew League, and the pre-season match was different, which helped the opponent to collect information.

"I'm sure he'll be a surprise for the Lakers in the regular season. Let Lederer play around in the preseason, so that he can see himself clearly and be honest in the future."

Jackson is not optimistic about Lederer, this arrangement is just to let the star rest more, OK combination, grant do not need to prove themselves, save the physical strength to play in the regular season.

Jackson will also check Guo Xu's temperament by the way. If he is not satisfied with the ball right, he will take time to teach Guo Xu.
