Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 565: The Warriors are in internal strife and Alian is tired!
With the end of the seventh game between the Thunder and the Warriors, the four teams in the Eastern and Western Conference finals have all been decided.

In the East, the Bobcats and Celtics face off.

In the West, it’s a showdown between the Lakers and the Thunder.

The Bobcats' home game against the Celtics will be played first on May 5.

The seventh game between the Warriors and the Thunder ended on May 5th.

The NBA will have a two-day break before the conference finals.

During the two days of rest, almost all of it was filled with the aftermath of the battle between the Thunder and the Warriors.

The bond and trust between Thunder players such as Westbrook, Ibaka, Carter, Adams, Anthony and Durant is shocking and respectful.

At the same time, the internal strife of the Warriors after losing the game was also incredible.

After the divisional semifinals between the Thunder and the Warriors ended, an insider of the Warriors revealed that the Warriors were very dissatisfied with the performance of the team's star guard Stephen Curry in the last three games of the divisional finals.

The dissatisfaction mainly comes from players and some senior management, as well as some coaches.

If it is just one-sided dissatisfaction with Curry, in fact, it cannot be considered an internal conflict. The reason why it is called an internal conflict is mainly because there are also people who support Curry, and these people who support Curry have extremely high influence in the Warriors.

That was Jerry West.

After Curry encountered a crisis of confidence, Jerry West clearly chose to support Curry.

Jerry West has an extremely high influence on the Warriors. With his support, naturally many people will express their sympathy and support for Curry.

For example, the Warriors' star player Yi Jianlian.

In fact, with the support of Jerry West and Yi Jianlian, the Warriors management and players can forcibly suppress their dissatisfaction with Curry.

However, one person's public remarks at the post-game press conference completely ignited the Warriors' infighting.

I can only say that the Warriors lost too ugly in this Western Conference semifinals, especially in Game 7. After leading by 17 points in the first quarter, they started to hide and were eventually caught up by the Thunder and scored by Durant. They can lose the game, but the process was so ugly that someone must be held accountable.

"When we are in the lead, we will have all kinds of troubles. I really want to let more intense players play in the tense stage of the game. Our offensive rhythm was interrupted by the tactics of forcing Curry. We have always been a five-on-five team, not a four-on-four team. We have not had such experience throughout the season, so we made mistakes in the game and did not hold on to the final victory. I think it is normal, but the mistakes of many leaders in the team should not have occurred. In this game, Curry was very frustrated after many things. He did not fully release his energy in the game. He was not able to be like Durant of the Thunder. He was very frustrated in the game. I understand him, but such frustration should not appear in such an important game. I still believe in him. He has always been the best player of the Warriors in the past, but his performance tonight made me a little frustrated. No matter what the future holds, he must change this habit. Facing difficulties, he must not retreat. Facing hardships, he must not be frustrated. Curry must do better in this regard."

Kerr's meaning was actually very clear. Although he said a lot of polite words and expressed his sympathy and support for Curry, in the end, Kerr still chose to put the blame on Curry.

Such a huge failure.

Can Jerry West take the blame?
Can the boss take the blame?

Can Yi Jianlian take the blame?
He is Steve Kerr, who beat Popovich in the playoffs last season. He is now one of the four famous coaches in the NBA (Coach D, Magic Monty, Kerr and Popovich). Although he has never won a championship in the NBA, he has already established a status. Can he take the blame?

Definitely not, so Curry has to take the blame.

Anyway, Curry has always been the most controversial player in the Warriors. Some people like him and some don't, some think he is strong and some think he is weak. It is the most polarized.

Whenever the Warriors have problems, Kerr likes to blame Curry.

Because Curry has the best personality.

Yi Jianlian is such a big star that he dare not criticize him.

He couldn't bear to criticize his own son who was pursuing his dream.

As for Klay, Klay has such a bad temper that he doesn't dare to criticize him. If he dares to criticize Klay, Klay will dare to criticize him back.

As for Iguodala and Love, their importance to the team is not that high, so there is no reason to let them take the blame.

In the end, after looking around, Kerr found that Curry was the most suitable person to take the blame for the team. In the past two seasons, Kerr really took advantage of Curry's good temper.

In addition, this time, Curry did show problems, and Kerr almost path-dependently threw the blame on Curry.

But this time, Curry really couldn't stand it anymore. Not only Curry couldn't stand it, but Curry's fans couldn't stand it either.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

"Cole asked Curry to perform on the court. How should Curry perform? Tell me, how can Curry perform? Whenever other Warriors players except Yi look at Curry for a second time, I think Curry should take the blame for this game. But no, no one cares about Curry. The real world we see is that except Yi, no one on the Warriors court needs Curry. You all hope that Curry will not shoot or come back to defend, for fear of affecting your offense and defense. Now, the team has lost in the most humiliating way, and you think, oh, our team has a second-in-command. During the game, why didn't you know that you had a second-in-command to rely on? I don't ask you to be like Westbrook, or even like Yi. Kerr, Draymond, Klay, I just ask you to be a human being, like Iguodala and Love, who don't say anything after losing the game!"

Although Curry does not have that many supporters among the local Warriors fan group, local Warriors fans have always felt that Curry was not a good fit since he came to the team. After they got Yi Jianlian, they looked down on Curry, the former boss, even more. Moreover, because Curry has to pay the price of growth in almost every playoffs, the local Warriors fans now have very complicated emotions towards Curry. It cannot be said that they do not support him, but their support is limited. They praise him when he plays well and criticize him when he does not play well. If he plays averagely and loses the game, they take the blame. If he plays averagely and wins the game, they praise Draymond and Klay's defense for ignoring Curry.

However, Curry has many fans in the entire NBA community.

And these fans are different from the local fans of the Warriors. The local fans of the Warriors really support Kerr.

But Curry's fans really hate Kerr, who always blames Curry for losing a game.

This time, Kerr really stepped on the landmine of Curry fans.

Curry fans also wanted to cry watching this game.

Mrs. Ku cried almost the entire game during this seventh game.

I've never seen a player suffer so much.

Just like Buckley said.

"In the history of the NBA, there has never been a player forgotten and abandoned by his coach, teammates and fans. Stephen Curry has become the first and only one!"

Everyone knows that Curry has a very good personality.

After Kerr blasted Curry in the post-match press conference, Curry actually responded on his Twitter. "To be honest, I am aware of the problem that the coach mentioned. Our opponents have great energy and condition. I have not been able to show such energy. This is my problem. I have tried hard, but I have not received enough support. My talent and ability cannot break through Russell's shackles like KD did. Coach, I originally thought you knew that I am not a talented player like KD, Jordan, Kobe, and James. Facing such a predicament, I really need more support and more trust from you. I don't know why I don't get such trust. Is it because I am not working hard enough? Or, you have never looked up to my basketball talent. Perhaps, many people have never believed it. My basketball talent can make me successful in the NBA. As a player, I should not question the head coach's decision, but in this matter, I must respond to your criticism. I did not do well enough, but this is my ability. Since you think I am useless, you should have replaced me long ago and replaced me with your favorite player on the court, but you did not. You still put me on the court and ignored me. If I am wrong, I think you, the coach, must not have done well enough. We all know that helping the team win is the key. Is there a possibility that helping me on the court is also an important part of helping the team win? However, you did not do such a thing until the last second before the end of the game. "

Those who know Curry know that his ability to give such a response to Kerr's criticism shows his extreme frustration and disappointment. Although the response seems rational, in fact, Curry is probably already desperate about Kerr.

Curry's response naturally caused a chain reaction.

The seemingly brothers who are now being criticized by Curry's fans, Klay and Draymond, who are actually selfish and serve as Curry's second-in-command, are under great pressure.

Did they try to grab the second-in-command spot in the competition?
To say there isn't any would be a lie.

Curry is about to retire, why can’t the second in command be mine?

But Klay is not stupid. He knows that Curry is going to retire, so why would he criticize Curry and make Curry's fans and Yi unhappy?

When Klay and Draymond were fighting for the second-in-command position, they didn't take Curry seriously at all, so they ignored Curry, not tricked Curry. They didn't trick Curry.

I didn't even think of putting the blame on Curry.

This is completely different from Cole.

"Although I know that such remarks have an impact on the unity of the team, I have to say that what Curry said is correct. We did not do a good enough job in supporting him. We should indeed have more trust and support for Curry in the game. Although Curry encountered big problems in the game, he is still one of the best players on the team. Without his performance, it will be difficult for us to win. And after this game, I believe Curry will regain the trust of the coaching staff. We have no problems. In fact, we never had any problems. This is just a normal debate after the game. There is no need to over-interpret it. Of course, I support Curry and I also support Kerr."

If Klay's emergency PR was to reshape his image, then Draymond's remarks were quite outrageous.

"Why didn't Kerr and us support Curry? Don't Curry's fans and Curry really know? Yes, Curry's shooting is excellent, but in such a high-intensity game, Curry can't score as freely as KD and others. The Thunder's help to Durant is a reward. On the basis of Durant's historical basketball talent, the investment is rewarded. Don't lie to me. Tell me, if we support Curry like the Thunder supports Durant, can we get such a return? Maybe we will be defeated by the Thunder in the third quarter, and it is absolutely impossible for us to hold on until the last second before being killed by KD! In competitive sports, being bad is the original sin. We lost, we are bad, and I accept my badness, but I absolutely do not accept the so-called saying that supporting Curry can win the game. In this game, we could not have defeated the Thunder. In the end, we played the game like this, all thanks to Yi! Except Yi, no one is qualified to feel wronged, including me, Klay, Curry and Kerr!"

Naturally, Draymond Green's words were met with crazy attacks from Curry's fans.

But it might be magical to say it out loud, but when it comes to chasing dreams, he gets more support than opposition.

It can be said to be politically correct to criticize all the players on the Warriors except Yi Jianlian.

It seems that Draymond's speech is not comparable to Klay's, and it is a big mouth speech. But in fact, it has won the support of the local fans of the Warriors, because the local fans of the Warriors really think so. In this shameful game, except Yi, everyone is a war criminal.

Kerr and Curry both performed really badly. Is there any need to feel aggrieved and argue over who deserves more criticism?
Finally, Draymond also licked the team leader Yi Jianlian.

Using the harshest tone to say the softest flattery, the art of language is really mastered by Dream Chaser.

Clay was extremely envious.

His response to the Curry and Kerr incidents can only be described as mediocre.

But Draymond Green’s response to this incident is definitely a huge plus.

He not only shaped his own leadership qualities, but also licked the team leader, killing two birds with one stone.

Faced with the increasingly chaotic situation of the team, Warriors owner Lacob finally couldn't sit still and gave a characterization of the matter.

"The team is in a bad situation now. We lost a very difficult game. This is a big problem. I am also very dissatisfied with this. Whether it is the team lineup or the foundation, we are not inferior to other teams. We should have gone to the divisional finals or even the finals. We can win the championship, but the results in the past few seasons are not very good. I personally hope that everyone can adjust their status and ease their personal emotions in the next offseason. At the same time, the team will also consider trading."

Lacob's words directly detonated the entire NBA.

transaction?

Who to trade?

Love?

Iguodala?

Curry?

Draymond or Klay?

Anyway it won’t be Yi Jianlian.

Because he added one more sentence at the end.

"I know you are worried. Yi will be 30 next season. Time is running out for us. Please rest assured, fans. The team and I will not waste Yi's peak period. Even if a player is outstanding, he will leave if he is not suitable. Next season, you will see a stronger team that is more suitable for Yi!"

The entire NBA was shocked by the strong statement made by the Warriors owner.

The Warriors’ player supermarket is about to open.

At the same time, Du Kang also received a call from A Lian.

On the phone, Alian's voice sounded very tired.

"Coach, we were so united when we were growing up, why has it become like this now?"

In the dream, Al-Farouq Aminu led Draymond, Klay and Curry to the top successfully.

It is so happy that we grow together and reach the peak together.

Why is the real world so bumpy?

He was actually the person who suffered the most in this internal conflict.

"Coach, I'm so tired right now. I'm really not a good leader..."
