On November 9, the Lakers continued their journey of the new season, challenging the Dallas Mavericks led by Nowitzki away, losing 124:131, and the number of games in a row reached three games. At the same time, the team's winning rate fell below 50%, and the ranking fell to tenth in the Western Conference.

For a moment, doubts from the outside world broke out.

2 wins and 3 losses, this result is indeed a big gap with the expectations of fans, but if you analyze it carefully, this result is really acceptable for a team that has just undergone major reforms in the summer and has re-forged its offensive and defensive system. What's more, the Lakers have encountered two top four teams in the Western Conference in the first five games, the Suns and the Mavericks, and the schedule is still a little loss.

In the city of Los Angeles, some pressure must be taken. In the eyes of many fans who don’t like Kobe so much, Kobe forced O’Neal away and Phil Jackson away. He did something that affected the team’s strength due to conflicts. This is a selfish behavior. Tom Janovic failed to control this team compared to Phil Jackson. The so-called Chinese genius assistant coach is just a hype. It’s a shallow thing to talk about on paper!

Many newspapers and media are madly belittleing the Lakers, exactly the same as the praises that were everywhere a week ago. This is the big city, this is Los Angeles. If you perform well, they can praise you to heaven, if you perform poorly, they can also step on you to the ground.

Fortunately, before the Lakers could feel the pressure from the outside world, the most representative violence in the NBA history broke out in the East - the Auburn Mountain Palace incident. With only 45.9 seconds left in the Pacers' game against the Pistons, the Pistons trailed the Pacers by 15 points. Pacers forward Ron Artest made a rude foul on Ben Wallace. Ben Wallace was in a bad mood to lose and pushed Pacers forward Artest heavily.

It triggered a fierce conflict between the two sides. Later, with the comfort of the referee and teammates, Ron Artest lay on the technical table, and a fan threw beer at him, causing Artest to lose control. Artest then rushed to the audience and beat the fans. The Pistons fans fought back. Artest failed to take advantage and fell into a fight. At the critical moment, Martial Saint Jackson followed, knocked down a group of fans with a combination of punches, and rescued Artest from the crowd...

Compared with the Auburn Mountain Palace incident, the Lakers' three-game losing streak has become unimpressed. Stern has always been committed to changing the image of the NBA and please more fans. This time, there was a violent incident in which players beat fans. For a time, all media focused on the reports of this incident.

Including Lakers fans, they are now watching videos of Auburn Mountain Palace, watching related news, forgetting to pay attention to their own team's performance, and even the Lakers' away game against the Hornets has been much lower.

Speaking of which, the Hornets are a relatively tragic team in the past two years. In the relatively weak East, Byron Davis and Marshburn were able to lead the team to the playoffs. Coupled with the stable progress of sophomore rookie David West, the team's life is quite comfortable. As a result, the league expanded its troops and squeezed the Hornets to the West for a desperate death. In addition, the second leader of the team, Marshburn, had minimal knee invasive surgery and was reimbursed for the season, directly destroying the Hornets' combat effectiveness, 1 win or 5 losses at the start of the game, and lost to their opponents per game by 18 points. Such an opponent is the best to bottom and rebound!

At the same time, the team's poor recent conditions also gave Tom Janovic a chance to adjust the team's lineup. Karon Butler was transferred into the lineup by Tom Janovic. After the start of the game, Grant, who was in poor form, was finally eliminated.

In this way, Ke Yan's eyes finally combined with the strongest five-man team in the Lakers!

Although they fought back to back and fought with the Mavericks for 41 minutes in the last game, Kobe was still full of fighting spirit after the opening game. He scored JR Smith, who played against the Hornets in a low post, and helped the Lakers establish an 8-point lead in half a quarter.

After Kobe got out, Caron Butler, who had previously played the role of the sixth man, played the role of the team's first attacker in the rotation lineup in the following time, and finally played as he wished. Butler was very excited in the game. In addition, the Hornets' wing defensive strength was obviously insufficient. Butler scored 8 points in the first quarter, and the Lakers also led by 9 points 32:23 to finish the first quarter.

Although the team's record fluctuates, the most affirmative thing about the Lakers this season is the offense. With some unreasonable offensive choices, the Lakers' offensive efficiency is still ranked fifth in the league, which is inseparable from the offensive system created by Ke Yan. In the second quarter, Butler, Odom, and Atkins continued to play on the offensive end. After coming to the Lakers, Atkins, who usually only scored double-digit points against the Nuggets, scored 8 points in a single quarter in the second quarter and scored 11 points in the first half. The Lakers scored three of them in double-digit points in the first half, directly widening the gap to 23 points.

The weak Hornets led by 23 points in the first half. In Ke Yan's opinion, the second half is a good opportunity to practice tactics, but Kobe doesn't think so. In addition to the team's record, he wants to win some personal honors this season, such as MVP, such as the scoring champion. Without the suspense of victory or defeat, Kobe's singles are more radical, with 12 shots in a single quarter, hit 5 goals, and scored 12 points.

His score reached 25 points, but the gap between the Lakers and Hornets was narrowed to 18 points. It is really not an exaggeration to say that "single-only damages the team".

If it weren't for back-to-back combat, Kobe probably wanted to come up and score 30 in the fourth quarter. Fortunately, Tomjanovic moved him with emotion and reason, and persuaded Kobe not to affect his physical strength for this data, and to bear a greater risk of injury. He reluctantly persuaded Kobe.

However, seeing Kobe's angry expression, Ke Yan understood that the other party was still dissatisfied. From another perspective, he could also figure out why Tomjanovic knew that Grant was useless, but he kept playing five games. He waited until he lost three consecutive times before taking the opportunity to win him. The main reason was for the harmony of the team's locker room.

113:96, the Lakers defeated the New Orleans Hornets away and ended their three-game losing streak (3-3).

A big victory relieved the pressure around the entire Lakers team. Negative news was disbanded, and the team could also concentrate on dealing with the next game.

On the fourth day after the interview, Xu Yi officially posted an interview with Ke Yan on ESPN Huaxia official website. Through ESPN's platform, the correct information about Ke Yan appeared on his own website for the first time.

However, the reaction of the vast majority of fans perfectly implemented a sentence, "Spread rumors and open their mouths, and refute rumors and run apart." No one cared about Ke Yan's emphasis on "I won the work of the Rockets with my own efforts". Everyone's focus was on "Ke Yan's experience of becoming an assistant coach" and "Ke Yan thinks the Suns are a strong team". Of course, some female fans also focused on Ke Yan's good appearance. After all, women are vision animals.

"To be honest, I still quite admire Ke Yan, a coach who dares to go out for further studies. In basketball, learning from the best skills of the barbarians is a good idea. I am optimistic about Ke Yan taking over the national team in the future~"

"I'll give you some popular science. As an assistant coach, Ke Yan is responsible for the design and drill of the Lakers' offensive tactics this season. The Lakers' average score per game this season is among the top four in the league. This data is very impressive, and Tang Shuai values ​​Ke Yan very much and gives him enough opportunities to show himself. It is estimated that in a few more years of training, he is very likely to become the first Chinese head coach to coach in an NBA team!"

"It's a bit too early to say that the Suns are a regular season champion team? They only won 15 games last season and were just a hit. I'm still optimistic about the top three in Texas, especially the Rockets and Yao and Mac teams! "

"Don't brag or not, discuss rationally. Ke Yan has been an assistant coach for two seasons, and neither team has entered the playoffs. The Suns are the last in the league last season! This season, they have only won three wins and lost three times. Don't just brag about it when you see a Chinese. This is not good!"

"Wow, Ke Yan is so handsome?" (^_-)"
