This Forward is Not Serious Chapter 299

"A lot of things happened between Coach Sloan and I. I used to think that I could handle everything by myself. I felt that he restrained me. It was something a young, impulsive and innocent person would do, but it turned out that I was wrong. .

Looking back now, he taught me a lot. He defined my life and style of play. He helped me find my own way of survival in this league, but I don't know it. If I have a chance, I think of him. Say sorry in front of you. "

Deron mentioned Sloan himself, and then took the initiative to say these words.

The words Lin Ying said yesterday made him think a lot.

In addition to recognizing Lin Ying's point of view, he is also thinking about his experience with the Nets for more than a year.

In many cases, there is contrast to hurt.

Also known for his strict military management, Johnson also has the city of "Little Pat Riley", but he is not even close to Sloan.

He did get the tactical control he wanted in the Nets, but the fact is that excessive "freedom" represents "disorder", and he played even worse.

In the past, he didn't want to face it and didn't want to admit it, but Lin Ying's words changed him.

Deron's apology also caused a new wave of public opinion on social media.

You know that Deron scored 57 points yesterday when the outside world focused on the highest point.

Then he publicly apologized at this time, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.

For Deron's approach, fans rarely unanimously expressed their approval.

Especially for real Jazz fans, their grievances towards Deron have also dissipated a lot.

In a very realistic sentence: the past cannot be undone, the future can be changed.

Now that Deron was already willing to apologize, what they had to worry about in the past is no longer important.

Who wouldn't want to see the day when Deron and Sloan really shook hands and made peace?

A suburb of Utah.

Sloan was sitting in the courtyard behind his wooden house resting.

Not far away is its cornfield.

It's just that in December, of course there will be no more corn in the field.

In the early years, when his wife Bobby was still there, they would go to the farm in Southern Illinois to grow corn during the offseason.

The climate there is good, and the corn grown every year is huge.

Only when his wife died in 2004, he never visited again.

Utah is Salt Lake City, and the soil is not suitable for planting, so he is basically trying to make himself do something.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

Because he doesn't know how to use a computer or a smart phone, he still uses that kind of old-fashioned mobile phone, which can only be used to make calls.

He picked it up. It was a call from Jazz general manager Dennis Lindsey.

Lindsey is here to tell Slundron what is due.

"I don't accept it! You tell him, I don't accept it!"

Lindsey came to tell Sloan the good news, but he didn't expect that Sloan's attitude was very tough, and his tone was excited to refuse to accept Deron's apology.

This made Lindsey a little embarrassed.

Finally hung up the phone, Sloan was still talking about his refusal to apologize.

First, he said that his resignation had nothing to do with Deron. If he accepted Deron's apology, it would be equivalent to admitting that what he said was false. He was indeed blaming Deron.

The second is that he is indeed angry with Delong.

Even if Boozer leaves, they still have Millsap, and they still have a chance, but Deron ruined the last possibility.

He is going to the grave with a lifetime of regret.

But after slowly calming his breath, Sloan smiled unconsciously.

Deron, the child, has finally grown up.

Sloan's refusal of Deron's apology was quickly spread by the media.

It seems that the problem between the master and the apprentice will not be resolved so quickly.

But Deron was not affected much.

Because he was ready to go to Sloan to apologize face to face during the offseason.

As for now, he just wants to help the Nets win more victories.

The Nets' next game is at home against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers are now second in the Western Conference.

Although the lack of strength of role players has always plagued them, there have been frequent trading rumors recently.

But in this way, the Lakers are still firmly ranked second in the West. One can imagine how strong this pair of superstars Paul Kobe is.

This game is also a huge test for the Nets.

The good news is that Deron has recovered his status after the last game. With both cores online, the Nets are not completely out of chance.

Deron Paul is a 05 double control, and because of the "Deron eating and sleeping playing Paul" stalk, the duel between the two attracts outside attention every time.

Coupled with the relationship between Lin Ying and Kobe, the attention of this game is very high.

A specific manifestation is that this game is broadcast live across the United States.

And TNT also sent Barkley and Kenny Smith to the scene to explain.

On the night of the game, the Prudential Center Arena in Newark was full of attendance.

In the front row of the auditorium, fans found many familiar figures.

There is Taylor Swift, who has recently established a relationship with Lin Ying.

The second phase of "The Confession of Love World Tour" has also ended, and the third phase will not begin until March next year.

So in the next few months, fans should see the figure behind the song in the Prudential Center.

She is wearing tight jeans and a burgundy windbreaker today, holding a cup of hot coffee in her hand, looking very youthful and lovely.

And one big difference from the past is that she used to like to sit in the middle of the audience when she went to the NBA to watch games.

But at the Prudential Center, she sat in the most vip position in the front row.

This was not Lin Ying's arrangement, but directly from the Prudential Center.

Unlike Madison Square Garden next door, where it's hard to get a ticket, the Prudential Center can't be full.

It makes a lot of sense to do this.

It not only gave Lin Ying face, but also gave Swift convenience, and the most important thing was that an advertisement was posted directly.

If you come to the Prudential Center to watch football, you have a chance to meet Swift!

There is also Iverson, who said before that he would come to watch the game.

In just a few months after he retired, his face was obviously fatter and he looked a bit rich.

This is also a common problem of professional sports athletes.

What's more interesting is that the photographer was giving close-ups of Lin Ying and Iverson's hair before the game.

Before Lin Ying admitted that it was because of Iverson's haircut, this close-up is also very meaningful.

An unexpected figure also appeared in the VIP box, and Prokhorov, a rebounder from the Nets, also came to the scene.

A battle of focus has attracted the attention of many people.

When warming up before the game, Lin Ying and Kobe both went to the front row of the audience to greet Iverson.

Then during this process, Swift on the side stole a kiss to Lin Ying and sprinkled a handful of dog food in public.

Coupled with the pure style of Swift's age group, it really feels like you take your girlfriend to the stadium to play in college.

The warm-up is over, and the starting lineups on both sides have been released.

Lakers: Paul, Kobe, Ariza, Gasol, Jason Smith

Nets: Deron, Butler, Lin Ying, Yi Jianlian, Chandler

"beep!"

With a whistle from the sidelines, Smith took the lead and took the ball back to the Lakers' half. The visiting team took the lead.

The organization of Paul's frontcourt.

Kobe, running without the ball.

Like Anthony Howard in the East, there were concerns about the compatibility of Paul and Kobe at the beginning.

But it turns out that Kobe's off-ball ability is seriously underestimated.

In other words, because of his too strong individual singles ability before, people automatically ignore his excellent off-ball ability.

No, one cut in and out, and then came out and ran out a chance.

But Butler's defensive improvement is really great. When Paul passed the ball to Kobe, he had already bypassed the pick-and-roll.

Then, Kobe bukkake.

"Huh!"

A dry pull jumper with backwards, the highlight is a picturesque.

Kobe takes the lead for the Lakers!

In the basketball offense, Deron held the ball at the top of the arc, and Lin Ying ran off the ball.

Deron's pass was also very timely.

From his apology to Sloan, it can be seen that he is now willing to be Lin Ying's deputy.

Lin Ying caught the ball and shot, but Kobe suddenly shot out from the diagonal, jumping up so hard to interfere.

"when!"

Lin Ying's shot did not make a hit.

Kobe's defense was obviously not a temporary intention, but a preparation, that is, the moment when Lin Ying catches the ball.

Gasol protected the defensive rebound, the Lakers played a defensive counterattack, Paul quickly pushed the ball from the three-point line, broke through to the basket and stuffed the ball into the middle.

Kobe followed up to catch the ball and jumped up.

"Boom!"

A dunk with both hands.

Kobe scored the first 4 points of the Lakers' opening game!

After dunking, Kobe obviously swung on the rim before landing.

The scenes on the scene gave him his facial features, perseverance, desire, and killing!

For superstars, their biggest enemy is not opponents, but time.

In the peak two years, Kobe has been 33 years old this year.

No matter how well maintained, no matter how much he put in, his body began to show signs of uncontrollable decline.

The 35-year-old is a watershed, and there is not much time left for him to compete for the fifth championship.

So his desire this season is also the strongest since the 09-10 season.

Deron made a sudden point in the frontcourt, and Butler missed a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

Chandler took off the offensive rebound, but the shot was also destroyed by Gasol's help. Jason Smith finally scored the defensive rebound.

The Nets' opening consecutive offense failed.

Fortunately, their retreat was fairly rapid, and the Lakers' fast break did not turn into position.

Kobe's off the ball failed to get rid of Butler, but Butler can be considered ashamed and brave.

And Kobe's first breakthrough attempt failed to get rid of him.

Although the static talent is average, butler's defensive awareness plus enthusiasm, the overall defensive effect surprised Kobe.

Then, Kobe used a step up and down to cause Butler's thugs foul.

In fact, Butler's ball also predicted Kobe's technical moves, but the wingspan is not enough.

You think Kobe relies on training to succeed, but his talent is actually outstanding.

Kobe goes to the free throw line.

At this time, Lin Ying found Delong for a while.

The two quickly reached a consensus.

Kobe made two free throws.

6 to 0!

The Lakers opened the game and gave the Nets a big deal!

The Nets continued to advance to the frontcourt, and they adjusted their offense on the court.

Lin Ying reached the top of the arc to hold the ball, everyone else forgot to pull around, and then Deron was directly in the high post...with his back leaning on Paul to ask for the ball!

"Beat Paul for dinner and sleep" is not actually a stigma.

At least in this period, he still has a great advantage against Paul.

A very intuitive data, Deron's current record against Paul is 12 wins and 4 losses.

You must know that the Hornets are not a junk team in the West. The perennial playoff team also once played second in the West.

Fundamentally, it is completely determined by their body size and technical characteristics.

Delong is 1.91 meters tall and weighs 91 kilograms;

Paul is 1.83 meters tall and weighs 79 kilograms;

In terms of height and weight, Deron is misplaced with Paul.

And don't look at Deron being knocked down by Harris when he played the Jazz, but that was because he was not focused enough.

In fact, he has no knee or ankle injuries now, and he is barely able to keep up with Paul in terms of speed.

In addition, Paul's current style of play is still a breakthrough.

Therefore, it is easy for the two to face up to the situation that Paul can't play Deron one-on-one, and can only rely more on the pick-and-roll.

In turn, Deron's fight against Paul can be completely relied on by his body.

This is also the result of the exchange between Lin Ying and Deron: he is responsible for changing defense against Kobe, and Deron is responsible for attacking Paul!

Lin Ying feeds the ball in, and Deron sits directly on Paul.

Paul has a defensive backhand, and his small movements are also very concealed~www.mtlnovel.com~ But these don't seem to have much effect on Deron. As soon as Paul started to dig out, Deron suddenly turned around and threw Paul at Behind!

Waiting to enter the three-second zone, he faced Smith to help defend an early throw shot.

"Huh!"

Steady the ball into the basket.

He continued his excellent performance against the Jazz in the last game!

In the offensive and defensive transition, Lin Ying and Butler switched defensively, and he followed Kobe without the ball.

Because of his size, his ability to circumvent the pick and roll is not as good as Butler, but after Kobe receives the ball, his height puts more pressure than Butler.

After Kobe turned around continuously, he was disturbed and deflected.

This ball can be regarded as the one that Kobe had just defended against him.

Then on the frontcourt, Deron is holding the ball in the frontcourt to play Paul again!

This time, the fans in New Jersey can be seen amused.

Some fans even couldn't help but stand up excitedly.

Paul is not talking about the league's first point guard, at least he is also the same as Rose.

But if you can't hold Deron, you can hold him down!

This time Deron chose the drag step he was good at.

Paul has paid much attention to defense, but he can't hold Deron's sense of rhythm is too strong, he was stupefied by Deron's decision to give it in place.

After Deron passed Paul and rushed into the interior, Gasol quickly retracted the defense after seeing it.

However, it was still slow.

Deron has already risen into the sky, and a little fat man is assaulting him across Gasol...

"Boom!"

Smashed the ball into the basket!

The Prudential Center instantly boiled, fans cheering and whistles one after another!

Eat, sleep, beat Paul!

I'm not deceiving!
