0342 Don't piss off Tasker

"Come on, let me see if Andrew's data is normal..."

After resting for a night, Su Yang rushed to the Lakers' training base at 8 o'clock in the morning and held a meeting with the trainers as usual.

The Lakers play back-to-back against the Warriors. According to convention, they must first make scout reports, but Su Yang was on a whim and wanted to take a look at Bynum's recent game data first. After all, it has been a while since Bynum traded with the Warriors, and there should be enough data.

"Compared to the Lakers before, it seems to be a lot less..." Scout Ryan West opened the report and handed it to Su Yang.

Su Yang took it and looked carefully. He found that Bynum had played five games for the Warriors, with a highest score of 33 points against the Suns and a lowest score of 9 points against the Mavericks. Generally speaking, he averaged 20 points per game, which is indeed a lot lower than before.

As for the reasons, the scouting department seems to have not had time to analyze, but it is obvious that Bynum's moves have decreased.

After the Warriors traded Curry, Ellis became the absolute core of the backcourt. Even if the Warriors' management and coaching staff didn't like it, Ellis had to control most of the ball. The level of shooting at will is back to when he was the boss a few years ago.

There is no way, taking action is a good and a disadvantage of Ellis, which makes him unable to defend himself, or he does not need to defend himself.

Anyway, Ellis shot more, Bynum naturally shot less. Mark Jackson said at most, but he would not fight like Su Yang, in order to win more ball rights for Bynum, he would risk offending Kobe and losing his head coach position at the risk of offending Kobe.

"Isn't this just getting angry? It's also amazing..."

Su Yang was a little surprised that Bynum didn't make trouble, but he didn't think much about it. Perhaps he had to be a little detained when he arrived in a new place.

Everyone burst into laughter, and the meeting continued to be held according to the process. Ryan West first made a report on the Warriors on behalf of the scouting department.

"First of all, let's talk about the Warriors' main style of play. The first is that Ellis calls pick-and-roll at a high position. Bynum and David Lee will cooperate depending on the situation, but most of the time it will end with Ellis' emergency stop and mid-range shot, followed by breaking through and attacking the basket..."

Everyone laughed again, no wonder the two inside players would cooperate according to the situation, and the way of playing was to cooperate was to be a wall.

Between the words, the scout report ends.

Snyder and other assistant coaches took turns speaking, giving response solutions to the content mentioned in the scout report.

Su Yang finally added: "It is difficult for centers to play pick-and-roll on the offensive end. It is difficult for Nate Robinson to squeeze through the screen. Taking advantage of Bynum's shortcomings that are difficult to prevent, the Warriors are also difficult to assist in defense from the outside, and encourage the players to shoot boldly.

On the defensive end, the Warriors mainly restrict the passing of the ball to Bynum from the outside by circling the front and interfering with the passer strategy. It just so happens that Ellis and Nate Robinson are both short players in the same position, so they can defend themselves from passing the ball on the ground and relax their passes a little.

You can help players who are playing Bynum in advance, or give double-teams firmly, and the rotation speed doesn’t matter."

We take a two-pronged approach to both offense and defense, and from Bynum to his teammates, we will limit everything in all directions and try not to give us any chance to play.

That sounds a bit very, but Su Yang believes that he has no personal grudges with Bynum. The reason why he is preparing to adopt such an extreme strategy is mainly to give an explanation to the fans, Lakers, management and the Bass family to prove that there is no problem with the deal bynum.

"What do we need to deal with if Bynum comes to the robbery?" Assistant coach McMillan asked additional questions.

"I'm afraid he won't get a delay..." Su Yang smiled, "If he really dares to get a delay, then arrange for the team members to launch a one-on-one challenge, so that he can feel the textbook-level small attack. Whether Kobe, Sessions or LIN, he can eat him alone..."

Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Kobe's signature style of using cover to break through and shoot, only Garnett can achieve better restrictions against the big man, while other big players, even if Duncan defends, would have no good effect, let alone Bynum.

After some arrangements, the main content of the meeting was completed.

Trainer Coke Lyles followed up and said that Curry was rapidly improving his core strength, and the training to change his ankle as the main force point is also proceeding smoothly. The next step is to appropriately increase Curry's weight and improve his overall trunk stability.

In short, if everything goes well, Curry can reach a relatively ideal competitive state in late May or early June.

Su Yang thought silently when he heard this. At that time, the West Finals started. If he returned against the Thunder, it would definitely be a super support. Otherwise, the Thunder could completely shrink the inside line, limit the Lakers' breakthroughs and tactical running, and use their talents to limit the Lakers' outside shooting.

At nine o'clock, the Lakers will arrive one after another.

Because it is back-to-back combat, the entire team only conducts basic shooting training, and then watches a lot of videos of the Warriors' games.

Taking advantage of the lunch break, Su Yang found Biderlins and informed him in advance that he would be arranged to play during the regular time of the evening game. He encouraged him: "This is a chance for you to prove yourself, so that everyone can see that you can still play well..."

Everyone is mainly on the Warriors, and of course the Lakers. The former is to vent his anger, while the latter is to win trust.

Bidlins, 26, was excited when he heard this, and clenched his fists tightly and said, "I will play as the last game..."

Su Yang nodded and expressed satisfaction. He liked Bidlins's attitude of not accepting fate. Even if he was not bad, he would die standing still.

While the Lakers were preparing, social platforms such as Weibo also set off a preheat of Bynum's revenge battle and various discussions.

Netizen 's sphincter is a friend who has just made a sponge body' wrote: "I know a lot of people who want to say that the Lakers are stronger teams. I also admit that the probability of the Warriors winning is very low, but Bynum can at least play, where is Stephen Curry?"

Netizen 'Suddenly looking back, his neck hurts' wrote: "I have seen this game. The Lakers defended with all their might to suppress Bynum's attack in the inside, but Kobe made 4 of 23 shots in the game, and the Lakers finally lost with a three-point advantage."

Netizen 'Ambitioners' Story of Jingze' wrote: "Under the Lakers' strong defensive suppression, An Zhu Bynum will be angry and will commit a malicious foul on a Lakers player in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter, and then be called and expelled by the referee..."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yang rushed to Staples Center and found that Kobe was sweating profusely as if he was skipping over water.

"I remember Jordan said that Kobe has practiced too much of the biggest problem, right?" Su Yang turned his head and looked at Gary Witty, a team doctor and trainer who was traveling. "That has caused Kobe's knees and other parts of his body to be under great pressure for a long time. Haven't he tried to adjust?"

"That's Kobe! Absolutely paranoid!" Gary Witty shrugged helplessly, and Snyder and other assistant coaches also shrugged helplessly.

Su Yang curled his lips slightly, stood on the sidelines and watched for a few minutes, then entered the media and accepted interviews before the game by various reporters.

After a series of ordinary questions, the reporter finally asked how to defend Bynum. Su Yang said calmly: "We have a special meeting to prepare several defensive strategies, which will be used according to the on-site situation. I also hope that Bynum will be in good shape tonight."

The reporter asked again: "Warriors boss Lacob said that in the game against the Lakers tonight, the Warriors team will give Bynum the greatest support. Warriors player Ellis also said that he will pass more balls tonight. How do you plan to deal with it?"

"Is that true?" Su Yang felt a little suspicious and chuckled, "We will fight at the normal pace, and we'll watch it later."

At 7:00 p.m., the Lakers and Warriors game started.

Maybe it was because he thought there was a lot of fun to watch. Actor Denzel Washington, rapper Lear Wayne, football player David Beckham, comedian Terry Cruise and other celebrities attended the event, and Bynum mentor and Lakers celebrity Jabbar also attended.

Bynum's early lower limb strength was relatively weak and his low-level skills were poor. It was entirely up to Jabbar to teach him one by one, so he developed a good habit of playing back and a good hook. If he changed to another team to choose, it would be impossible to designate it.

Drop! The long whistle sounded, and the two teams started to enter the position.

On the Lakers, Sessions, Kobe, Arte, McRoberts, Gasol, and Warriors, Nate Robinson, Ellis, Dorrell White, David Lee, Bynum, what was more surprising was that Bynum took the initiative to ask Kobe to high-fives.

The referee walked to the center circle with the ball, gestured left and right to calibrate, and gently threw the ball into the air. Cheers in the center of Staples were everywhere.

Bynum jumped up and grabbed the ball first, and used the momentum to push the Warriors halftime, while Nate trotted and picked up the basketball and pushed forward.

The Warriors' formations of one inner and four outer sides were placed, and there was no complicated means. The basketball eight characters were passed to Dorrell for the left waist.

The Warriors were obviously prepared for the Lakers' defense by letting their higher-ranking Dorrell go to make a pass for Bynum.

In the blink of an eye, Bynum immediately bent his knees and sat hard on his feet. He skillfully turned around and sank to the bottom. He stepped on the ground and jumped up with two big steps. He raised his hands high and smashed the basketball hard towards the basket like a king carrying a tripod. The entire ball frame was almost overturned.

Gasol didn't care at all and said something to Bynum with a smile, as if he hadn't taken it seriously just now.

"Okay!" A spectator wearing the Lakers Bynum jersey stood up and shouted, "Andrew is very angry!"

When Su Yang heard this, he suddenly thought of the Hearthstone line, "Don't mess with Tasker." An Zhu is also considered a pig.
Chapter completed!
