Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

In the second quarter, Lu Yong sent a double guard of Rose and Mitchell, small forward Dort, and Oubre and Mitchell Robinson on the inside.

Mitchell rested for more than four minutes in the first quarter and came back to bring the substitutes. Like Durant, he attacked with the ball in the middle and teamed up with Rose to form a fierce backcourt double-gun.

Unlike ordinary shooting guards, Mitchell's offensive options are very diverse.

In addition to scoring by himself, he often passes the ball to create opportunities for his teammates, and the Nuggets defense keeps opening up.

Even if Dort and Oubre don't control the ball, they can still be a huge threat if they catch the ball and shoot directly.

Especially Oubre, his three-point shooting this season is very accurate. He made many strong shots against Grant's defense, and the Nuggets couldn't defend him.

Rose also played very selflessly, breaking through to attract double teams, and being assigned to the outside was an opportunity.

Monte Morris, who is 1 meters tall and weighs 91 kilograms, has a hard time defending Rose. He is not good at defense, and he was easily beaten against Rose, who mainly focuses on breakthroughs.

The point difference continued to widen, and Malone could only replace Millsap early to strengthen defense, but the team's offense was still poor.

Button was in terrible shape today. In this quarter, he mostly singled out Dort with the ball, and Mason Plumlee was also guarded by Mitchell Robinson.

身高2米11的普拉姆利刚进联盟也是个天赋异禀的中锋，擅长面框强打，身手全面，巅峰赛季11.1分8篮板4助攻1.2盖帽。

Many people were optimistic about him at the time, but it was a pity that Plumlee's upper limit had reached this point. The dual dilemma of injuries and lack of progress made him become a substitute within a few years, with an annual salary of 1400 million and an average of 7 points per game. 5 rebounds.

If the opponent's inside line is short and light, Plumlee can still play some role.

But Mitchell Robinson is not only tall and long-armed, but also very strong. Plumlee can't hit anyone with the ball. He has no shooting ability when he is pulled out, so he can only be a blue-collar player in the low post.

As a result, Plumlee, who played a blue-collar role, still couldn't take advantage.

Fighting for offensive rebounds, he was crushed by Robinson, and the point difference quickly widened to 20 points. Malone had to replace Jokic and Murray in advance.

Commentator Barkley said: "The Nets' second team's offense is still sharp. As long as they don't make mistakes in the second half, this game will definitely be won."

Kenny Smith said: "Lou is clamoring to win the best coach again this year. He has started with seven consecutive victories. If he continues like this, the Nets may break the historical record. As long as he maintains his winning percentage, he is very likely to win the best coach again. coach."

Barkley smiled and said: "Lou has been creating miracles in his coaching career. He deserves the title of the first coach in history."

Kenny Smith lamented: "The most important thing is that Lu has no background behind him. He got to where he is today solely by his own hard work and talent. This is rare in the history of the league."

Six minutes later, Durant came on the field to replace Dort and continued to attack with the ball.

Lu Yong allows him to play freely. The more data he collects, the easier it will be to be elected MVP.

At this time, Mitchell, Porzingis and others all showed selfless qualities, standing on the outside to attract defense, and willingly watching Durant's individual singles.

Many people analyze the reasons for the rise of the Nets. In fact, the reason why the Nets are able to get to where they are today is inseparable from the locker room atmosphere maintained by Lu Yong on a daily basis.

The players on the field played selflessly and were willing to make sacrifices. The achievements of this team are destined not to be too bad.

In the second half, the Nuggets began to double-team Durant. Durant's shooting percentage dropped, and Mitchell took over the offensive banner again.

One-on-one challenge to Gary Harris left the Nuggets defense at a loss.

After three quarters, 87 to 62, the Nets lead by 25 points.

Such a big hole is impossible for the Nuggets to fill even if they try their best.

In the final quarter, Lu Yong sent Vincent, Dort, Ding Yanyuhang, and inside Caleb Martin and Claxton.

Ding Yanyuhang performed beyond his level and hit two consecutive three-pointers from the right side at 45 degrees from the beginning, leading the team to a climax in garbage time.

In the end, 115 to 84, the Nets won at home.

杜兰特三节打卡下班，21投13中，三分球7中3，罚球5中5，得到34分7篮板4助攻2抢断1盖帽，米切尔、布伦森、波尔津吉斯、罗斯、考辛斯等人也都得分上双。

掘金内线约基奇24分11篮板5助攻1盖帽，米尔萨普15分8篮板2助攻1抢断，表现都不差，无奈其他球员不够给力。

'Mamba' Murray was completely lost. He played 32 minutes and made 16 of 5 shots, 6 of 0 three-pointers, 2 of 1 free throws, only 11 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, and the most 5 turnovers in the game.

Barton made 13 of 4 shots and scored 9 points and 2 rebounds.

Harris hit two three-pointers, but only had 10 points, 4 rebounds and 1 steal.

The Nuggets' outside offense was in a mess, and Jokic was unable to defeat four hands with two fists.

At the press conference, Lu Yong talked about the game, "Everyone gave an excellent performance in this game. I am very happy that the team can maintain the winning streak."

The reporter asked: "Do you think Durant can still win the regular season MVP this year?"

"If we have the best record in the league, and Adu's personal data is excellent, I think there is no reason for him to lose. He has the ability to win the MVP again and can score on anyone's head. I believe the judges already have the answer to this performance. "

Lu Yong never misses any opportunity to canvass votes for his disciples. As long as he praises Durant high enough, the league will not dare to do anything secretly.

The Nets have an incredible record, and Durant is also at the top of the scoring list. He really has no reason to lose.

The reporter asked again: "Do you think it is possible for the Nets to break the best record in history this season?"

"Of course, as long as we play every game seriously, we have a great chance of breaking the historical record." Lu Yong smiled and said: "But this is not important to everyone. The team's first goal right now is still to defend the title. Only A championship can prove our strength."

After that, the Nets successfully went on a winning streak.

They only lost one game in the entire month of November, and their 11-17 record ranked first in the league.

In the first game in December, the Nets defeated the Magic 127 to 98.

The Magic are still the same this season, with the ranking always hovering at 7-9, and the star player is Nikola Vucevic.

Lu Yong didn't take his opponent seriously at all, and arranged for Rose and Porzingis to take turns, and still won easily.

Durant had 26 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, and his performance was quite satisfactory.

After a day off, the Nets and their team flew to Phoenix for back-to-back games against the Suns.

Lu Yong decisively adopted a lineup rotation, and Mitchell and Cousins, who played 32 minutes, rested.

The Suns, with 5 wins and 16 losses, are one of the worst teams. Their current goal is to lose and lose, and strive to get a high draft pick in the summer.

Except for Devin Booker and Ayton, the Suns have no advantages in other positions.

The Suns can still struggle for a while in the starting lineup, but once Booker hits the field, the Suns are finished.

Rose, LeVert, and Oubre defeated the Suns bench.

Lu Yong arranged for Duncan Robinson to start this game and performed extremely well. He made 8 of 5 three-pointers and efficiently scored 15 points, 3 rebounds and 1 steal.

As a shooter, Dunro has a very high shooting percentage on catch-and-shoot shots, 46.8% from three-point range. He will definitely attract other teams to grab him in the summer.

After defeating the Suns, the Nets defeated the Pelicans back-to-back the next day. This schedule of the Nets is very outrageous, with back-to-back and death away games, which will test the players' physical fitness.

Lu Yong arranged for rests because he was worried that someone would be injured under such an intensive schedule.

Rose and Durant are resting this time. There is no need to go all out against a weak team like the Pelicans.

This is indeed the case. 119 to 92, the Nets easily won the away game and completely overwhelmed their opponent's defense.

波尔津吉斯迎来爆发，21投14中，三分球8投4中，罚球6中6，砍下38分12篮板3助攻1抢断2盖帽。

考辛斯16分10篮板同样抢眼，米切尔18中10，三分球9中5，罚球4中4，得到29分4篮板3助攻。

In terms of fast break counterattacks, shooting percentage, and three-pointers, the Nets completely defeated the Pelicans, showing terrifying offensive firepower.

What reassures the coaching staff most is that, relying on Lu Yong’s rotation strategy, no Nets player has been injured so far.

Even the three sick players Rose, Cousins ​​and Porzingis have stayed healthy. They have played two games and taken one game off, and have back-to-back games. The main focus is healthy basketball.

Those who were waiting to see Rose's joke were completely speechless. His physical condition spoke for itself.

On the 7th, the Nets visited Portland and defeated the Trail Blazers 116-107.

The Trail Blazers have an average record of 14 wins and 11 losses. They mainly rely on their outside guns to lead the team, attacking the strong and defending the weak.

The biggest highlight of this game is Durant versus Lillard.

杜兰特末节连得7分杀死比赛，全场斩获33分8篮板3助攻2盖帽的数据，23投12中，三分7中3，罚球7中6。

Lillard also scored a lot, but was double-teamed in the end and made two consecutive mistakes that ruined the game. He scored 31 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 turnovers.

This year, no one is optimistic about the Trail Blazers reaching the Western Conference Finals. They are relying on two guns to survive, and they are getting further and further away from the championship.

On the 9th, the Nets returned to their home court to face the Cavaliers, a bad team. Lu Yong changed his style of play and focused on practicing tactics.

Throughout the game, the Nets kept their offensive pace very slow and tried to run more cross-screens.

Facts have proved that when the strength gap between the two teams is too large, they can win even if they give up.

这场比赛丁彦雨航打了24分钟，10投6中，三分球4中2，罚球2中2，得到16分3篮板1助攻，得分刷新生涯新高。

For Ding Yanyuhang, Lu Yong spent a lot of time training him.

He hopes that an Asian small forward can gain a foothold in the NBA. Even if he is only a substitute, it will be considered a huge improvement.

Since the offseason, Xiao Ding has been working hard on catching and shooting.

Now he dares to take action when the position is open, not for anything else but not to embarrass Lu Yong.

Even if he can't make a shot, he still has to throw it toward the basket, which is better than not daring to shoot.

Although Ding Yanyuhang's shooting rate is only 44.6% and he doesn't shoot many shots, Xiao Ding is much better than in his previous life.

The environment creates people. In a championship team like the Nets, even Ding Yanyuhang dared to perform.

Skills and confidence, at least one version ahead of other domestic players.

After a day off, they played away against the Timberwolves. The Nets continued to practice tactics and easily won 127 to 96.

Towns missed the game due to an ankle injury. Without the center forward, the Timberwolves were obviously weakened and surrendered in less than three quarters.

Brunson had a fit and made 12 of 8 three-pointers. He only played 27 minutes and scored 29 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists, breaking his personal record for three-pointers in a single game.

On the 13th, the Nets faced the Hornets. Lu Yong adjusted the lineup and let Dun Luo and Oubre start together.

The Hornets started well, relying on their players' accurate outside shooting, often giving their opponents fatal blows.

Lu Yong kept trying lineup combinations, trying to see who has better three-point shooting power between the Nets and the Hornets.

Because the three core players of Rose, Mitchell, and Porzingis took turns at the same time, the Nets and Hornets played very anxiously in the first quarter, and the game ended in a tie at 26-26.

In the second quarter, Durant served as the point forward, and Vincent, Dun Luo, and Oubre spread out from the outside ready to catch and shoot.

Claxton screens and then cuts for an offensive rebound.

No one stepped forward to press, and Durant could also choose to directly challenge because his opponent Miles Bridges was only an inexperienced second-year rookie.

Lu Yong is too familiar with Durant's style of play, so he arranged a simple one-on-one challenge to let him drive his teammates.

Bridges has good athletic talent, but it is obviously difficult for him to defend Durant alone.

When defending, the distance is too close and Durant can pass him by changing direction. If the distance is too far, Durant directly pulls out. At 2 meters tall, he couldn't block shots at all and could only be beaten passively throughout the process.

As Adu led the team to an 11-0 run, Hornets head coach James Burrage was stunned and decisively requested a timeout.

They win mainly by relying on role players. There are no stars in the team, and the main focus is teamwork.

Now that the Hornets' outside offense is not going well, and their defense has been broken by the Nets, Burrage deeply feels the pressure from the defending champion.

In the second half, Durant beat the Hornets outside with the ball in a one-on-one.

After Bridges received his fifth foul, the Hornets lost another three-point point and could not break the Nets defense.

The Hornets trailed by 22 points in the third quarter, and the outcome was decided.

In the final quarter, the Hornets took advantage of garbage time to recover some points, but their impact on the game was minimal.

116 to 99, the Nets' three-point attack was a complete victory!

Rozier was very poor in this game, making only 16 of 4 shots, 7 of 1 three-pointers, no free throws, and scored 9 points, 3 rebounds, and 4 assists.

布伦森18分4篮板6助攻2抢断，数据碾压，13投7中，三分5中2，罚球2中2，命中率超过50%。

杜兰特打了28分钟，砍下30分5篮板3助攻1盖帽，发挥一如既往的稳定。

His singles ability is indeed very strong. Even Lu Yong has to admit that Durant is the most powerful star he has ever brought out.

Halfway through December, the Nets have 12 wins and 24 loss, and their record is firmly at the top of the league.

The Lakers ranked second with 20 wins and 4 losses, and were the team most likely to surpass the Nets in the second half.

The Bucks ranked third with 19 wins and 5, while the Clippers, Raptors and Nuggets were worse, ranking 4-6 respectively.

The Nets only lost one game in their first 25 games. Many media analysts believe that the Nets will break the Knicks' historical record of 74 wins. (End of chapter)
