The game between the Lakers and the Celtics, their fourth opponent in five consecutive Eastern Conference games, is on February 2, which is tomorrow.

The Lakers will play the Pistons, their first away opponent in the Eastern Conference, from January 27 to the Heat on February 4.

With five games to play in eight days, the schedule is still very tight.

Generally, NBA teams will not develop intensive training for such consecutive away games.

Basically it is some warm-up training, tactical system drills and training to adapt to the venue.

Because Du Kang has no plans to build a tactical system in the Lakers for the time being, the training of Lakers players is personal warm-up training led by the team's chief trainer Gary Vitti.

Well, very free.

Except Yi Jianlian, Nash and Howard.

Under Du Kang's guidance, in less than a week, Yi Jianlian has grown from a failed NBA player to a super attacker who can defeat Artest one-on-one in the training field.

And in the next group match, the blue team of Nash, Darius Morris, Ebanks, Howard, and Yi Jianlian also defeated Kobe, Gasol, Artest, Jordan Hill, Blake, and Ann

Towan Jamison's Yellow Team.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Yellow Team has more main players, more important rotations, with the old Lakers as the core, better tacit understanding, and naturally stronger strength.

But the final result was that the blue team of Nash, Howard, and Yi Jianlian defeated the yellow team 50 to 45 in a 20-minute match.

In this match, Yi Jianlian scored 14 points with a shooting percentage of 70%!

Especially his mid-range shot from the corner when he and Nash received a pass after the pick-and-roll, which made the Lakers yellow team unable to take care of themselves.

The insider on the yellow team's side.

If you are slow in defense, you cannot make up for it.

The fast one has poor defense and is short.

Yi Jianlian plays the yellow team's inside line, no matter how hard he shoots, he will be successful.

After Yi Jianlian and Nash opened up space on the outside, Howard was also at home inside.

The three-piece combination of Nash, Yi Jianlian, and Howard actually seem to have a better understanding than the Lakers championship combination of Kobe, Gasol and Artest.

There are a group of professional players present, and they all have a certain vision.

That's why the combination of Nash, Yi Jianlian and Howard looks so good.

The key is that Nash looks completely liberated!

The key to why Nash was able to be liberated was Yi Jianlian!

He is fast, can run, can jump, is seven feet tall, and has such a stable mid-range shot.

This is simply Stoudemire of the Lakers!

If it weren't for the fact that Ebanks and Morris of the blue team are really bad, and they are too inferior to Kobe and Artest, let's put it this way, the blue team can directly defeat the yellow team in this match!

So the question is, if Ebanks and Morris are replaced by Kobe and Artest, how strong will the Lakers be?

With Nash and Yi Jianlian as the core of the tactics, the Suns' run-and-gun tactics are used, coupled with Kobe, Howard and Artest...

Such Lakers are definitely very capable!

However, at this time, no one dared to voice this suggestion.

No matter Du Kang, Darwin Hamm, Gary Vitti, Kobe Bryant, Nash, or Howard, no one said such a thing.

At most, everyone is looking away from Kobe and Gasol.

Howard actually hesitated to speak.

He can accept supporting Nash and Yi Jianlian, not to mention that these two are his younger brothers.

Of these two people, one is the famous and uncontested MVP of the NBA, and the other is just a mere Chinese player. It is impossible to compete with him for the team's boss position.

What's more, the current offensive core is Kobe, not him.

And when he was in the Magic, the core of the Magic's offensive tactics was not him, but Turkoglu.

As long as Kobe is removed from the strategic core position and Kobe is slowly marginalized, of course he supports it!

What's more, the core of the new team's tactics is still his own younger brother, so it is more convenient to marginalize Kobe.

The coach's tactical grouping was definitely to prepare him to correct him and to provide theoretical support for defeating Kobe!

First the tactical system is marginalized, and then the team's status is slowly marginalized...

Although he always wanted to be the boss of the Lakers, he never considered himself a fool.

How could a player like Kobe Bryant, who was so successful with the Lakers, get rid of him so easily?

How is that possible?

What he was angry about before was that Jim Buss promised him to be the boss, but Jim Buss and the team had no intention of messing with Kobe Bryant.

This made him feel cheated.

If Jim Buss and the Lakers make moves to mess with Kobe Bryant, he is willing to wait!

Kobe was working on O'Neal from 2001 to 2004. It took three years before he was done with it.

If the head coach of the Lakers had been as brave and action-oriented as Coach Xiao Du, then he would not have been unable to do his job.

If you want me to work hard in vain, how is this possible!

I, Mr. Huo, will only work hard for a brave, courageous, visionary and capable head coach like Coach Xiao Du!

If it weren't for the confidant Clifford next to him.

After the intra-team training match between the blue team and the yellow team, he would stand up and shout: "Coach, let Yi, let us play run-and-gun, I am willing to play supporting roles for Steve and Yi!"

You all say that I, Mr. Huo, am selfish, and I am willing to play a supporting role. You, the former boss who can do anything for the team's victory, cannot remain indifferent and fail to see what is good for the team?

With this voice roaring, he felt that he would definitely be able to force Kobe to death!

Therefore, even if he was pulled by Clifford, the expression on his face was still that of hesitant to speak and eager to try.

First use self-destruction to knock Kobe down from the core position of the tactics, straighten Nash and Yi, and then use Nash and Yi, the two younger brothers, to attack Kobe. It is perfect!

So, Steve, why are you stopping me?

"Dwight, don't worry. If Nash and Yi can't cooperate like this in the official game later, doesn't this give Kobe an excuse to fight back and undermine the coach's prestige? It will be difficult to mess with Kobe in the future."

After Clifford finished speaking in a low voice, Howard suddenly realized.

Yes, the cooperation between Yi and Steve only lasted for half a game on the training ground, and it seemed to be perfect. How it will fare in actual combat is still uncertain.

He hurriedly used this as an excuse to blow up Kobe. If the combination of Yi and Nash did not work well in actual combat, Kobe could make a comeback, and if he dies, he is really dead.

After thinking about this, Howard became quiet instantly, and looked at Clifford next to him with more trust.

"Steve, you white people are still insidious!"

"..."

"I'm complimenting you, haha!"

"..."

Clifford wanted to slap him hard, but in the end he suppressed a smile.

"Thank you, I know."

In the eyes of many people, Du Kang, a head coach who has never organized a confrontation match, suddenly organized a confrontation match, which must have meant something.

But in the end, after the game ended, Du Kang really said the game was over. He said nothing and did nothing.

This confuses many people.

If all NBA players were as smart as Clifford, that would be fine.

Therefore, after Du Kang has no further words.

The Lakers players present once again turned their attention to Yi Jianlian!

At this time, Yi Jianlian began to practice mid-range shooting under the guidance of Du Kang.

Looking at Du Kang teaching Yi Jianlian step by step to practice shooting, the eyes of young Lakers players like Jordan Hill are really red.

I wish I could accept Du Kang’s guidance instead of Yi Jianlian.

Not to mention Jordan Hill, even Kobe is now thinking about whether to let the coach make some training plans for him.

He feels that many of his skills have been polished to the extreme.

There is nothing he can do.

Coach, can you help me with this?

For a 35-year-old player who still wants to continuously polish his skills, I can only say that Kobe's efforts are truly incredible.

In short, the way Lakers players look at Yi Jianlian now is full of envy.

The look in Du Kang's eyes is full of salivation, as if Du Kang is a customized version of the Kardashian sisters.

Well, NBA players are good at this.
