"Popovich is an excellent coach, and Sam has made outstanding contributions to the team formation..."

Su Yang suddenly thought of a sentence, saying that if you want something to look effortless, you must work very hard. But the female reporter in front of him was wiped out by his own efforts in a simple sentence. It would be fine if he just wiped out his own efforts. Anyway, he was so tired that he was too lazy to pay attention to it, but the credit of the coaching staff and the players was also downplayed, so it was necessary to refute it.

"Let James Harden be the main control is not a difficult choice, because he is famous for his high IQ playing style before he enters the league. As for letting Russell Westbrook be more responsible for breakthroughs, it is not a risky attempt, because he played the shooting guard in college. We just give full play to the technical characteristics of the two to help the team play higher scoring efficiency on the offensive end..."

While speaking, Su Yang glanced at the female reporter Lauren Al, and found that the other party was smiling, guessing that the other party probably thought he had fallen into a trap of speech: Since Harden and Westbrook were so awesome, the coach's contribution to winning was naturally small.

"But there is still a long way to go between technical characteristics and final results, such as the four All-Stars of the Lakers, the three Celtics in 2008, and the three Heat this year, which has to go through many adjustments from the formation to the finals.

To put it simply, it is the same pair of double guns, some people play Western cowboy effects, and some people hurt themselves..."

Other reporters burst into laughter when they heard this. Lauren Al was slightly stunned, and in a flash he also made a professional smirk, scolding Su Yang in his heart.

"Our coaching team has a detailed analysis of how the Mavericks defend. We joined forces with the scouting department led by Blach to study the Mavericks' retreat route, and then study the Mavericks' defensive position, how to rotate, how to handle the pick-and-roll...

Those jobs eventually turned into tactics performed by James and Russell on the court. They did it very well, and there were some wonderful freestyles, such as the first attack in the second quarter, where James and DeAndre passed each other continuously to complete the aerial contact…”

In just thirty seconds, Su Yang first praised Popovich and Presti, and then refuted Lauren Al's statement with clear logic and reasonable evidence, not only fully reflects the strength of Harden and Westbrook, but also mentioned several assistant coaches and scout teams, which were not missed.

Lauren Al nodded angrily, Su Yang smiled and signaled to other reporters to ask questions, and TNT and other TV reporters raised their hands one after another.

After answering a few simple questions, he got up and left. He was so tired that he was desperate to take a shower and go to bed.

The next morning, Su Yang woke up happily. He did not run and practice morning exercises as usual, but just lay on the bed and browsed his phone.

Many fans on Twitter yelled that the Thunder led the Mavericks 3-0, and the mainstream view was that they won too easily and their dominance was overwhelming.

The second-year-old Su-Cheer Gilbert Arenas tweeted: "Oh my God! I love Kobe! I love LeBron! Derek Ross is my favorite point guard! Joe Johnson is the guy who can play the key ball the most! Kevin Garnett will always be my big brother! But it must be said that this year's championship is still the Thunder. Su Yang is too strong. He lets the Thunder play double strength. Those guys who say he is just enjoying the Thunder's strong team building strategy, please don't watch basketball games again, you don't know anything!"

Reporter Shams tweeted: "I interviewed coach Niton Nelson by phone last night. He emphasized that Su Yang and the Thunder will soon be fulfilled for the third season, but the Thunder did not renew the contract in advance. Su Yang may jump out of the contract. He has suggested that the Warriors' new boss Rakob strive for it with all his might. Even if Su Yang's probability of leaving the Thunder is only 0.1%, it is worth trying."

Stephen A? Smith, a well-known commentator at espn, tweeted: "I feel ashamed of giving up support to the Thunder to advance to the Western Conference Finals. This means that my understanding of modern basketball is a bit behind. Of course, it may also be that Coach Su Yang is too advanced. I want to repeat what I said the day before yesterday. From now on, I support all decisions in Su Yang, even if it is refrigerated.

Because I know he is indeed so brave, he is very rational and brave to take risks, and he is a perfect coach."

Another well-known espn commentator, Bill Simmons, did not tweet, but fans found that he quietly deleted the video materials that tried hard to prove that the Mavericks would eventually advance, and also deleted some tweets that retweeted that others believed that the Mavericks would advance.

The main reason is to lead 3-0, the Thunder is so powerful that he has no injuries, and he holds three match points in his hand, and the Mavericks have no hope.

Su Yang smiled and finished brushing Twitter, got up and called for breakfast delivery, and gave the waiter a tip of one hundred dollars to share the happiness.

The morning video review was held as scheduled. Scouting director Blachi called specifically. Su Yang mentioned at the press conference that the scouting department expressed his gratitude and sent several videos to the coaching team at the same time, saying that it was edited overnight, and it was all about Thunder’s mistakes and analysis of rounds.

I don't know if I don't look at it. I was shocked when I saw it. The Thunder made 25 mistakes in the game, while the Mavericks made only 13 mistakes in the game.

The Thunder can win the game entirely due to Chandler, Jordan Jr. and Ibaka violently compete for 20 frontcourt rebounds.

As for those 25 mistakes, they happened 6 times in the first quarter, mainly because the Mavericks predicted the passing route many times and had too many steals.

Durant made as many as 8 mistakes in the third quarter, and Durant won 5 times, two of which were due to double-teams in the Mavericks, passing the ball was miserably predicted to steal, two times when he was not focused enough, he was stolen by the Mavericks, and one time when he was an offensive foul.

In the whole game, Durant made a total of 9 mistakes, Westbrook made a total of 6 mistakes, and Ibaka and Harden made 4 mistakes each.

"KD and Sergi's mistakes need to be reduced. Judging from the video analysis, the mistakes they made were mainly because after the ball was in their hands, either the speed of the operation decreased or stopped, so that the Mavericks could easily judge the movement..."

Su Yang hit the key point, and the coaching team immediately began to plan how to adjust, and the whole day spent on concentrated discussion.

In the evening, Harden and his men pulled Su Yang to watch the game between the Spurs and the Lakers. As a result, the Lakers played at home and enjoyed obvious preferential treatment in terms of penalty kicks. The free throws alone were 18 more than the Spurs, but in the end they lost at a 5-point disadvantage, and fell behind 0-3 in the series.

The result caused Harden and others to sigh, regretting that they could not fight the Lakers again in the Western Conference Finals, and were worried that the Lakers would enter the reconstruction stage from now on, and Kobe would also waste his last two to three seasons of his state, and he would not be able to enter the Western Conference Finals again until he retired.

Su Yang emphasized that there is still a chance, because the Spurs won three games in a row and the three GDP players fought with injuries.

The next day, the fourth match between the Thunder and the Mavericks in the Western Conference Semi-Finals continued to start at the American Route Arena.

Facing the situation of eliminating the situation when the loss is again, the Mavericks showed a super tough defense at the beginning, and the referee also obviously had some home whistles. Although the Thunder reduced the number of mistakes between Ibaka and Durant, Westbrook made 4 mistakes, losing one and the other.

With Kidd and Perkins playing for 12 minutes in the first quarter, the Mavericks led the Thunder 27-13 in the first quarter.

During the pause, Durant and others criticized and complained about the referee, but Su Yang said calmly: "This is the rule of the game."

In the following three quarters, the referee called for the Mavericks so much, and the Thunder took the opportunity to narrow the score difference.

However, the Mavericks are not bad at all, and the key is that they are full of fighting spirit. Until the end of the game, the Thunder were still five points behind.

The series score turned into a 3-1 lead of the Mavericks, but no one jumped out, saying that the Mavericks might turn around, and even the Mavericks were not too excited. Everyone understood that the Mavericks won was the league's special care.

The Thunder team flew back to Oklahoma overnight, preparing to take a day off, and then competed for the Western Conference Finals with the Mavericks at home.

On the same night, Lakers head coach Phil Jackson confirmed through a spokesperson that the Lakers will not return to the summer.
