Chapter 250 Unexpected Results
At noon the next day, Presti and the players arrived in Los Angeles, and after a brief tidying up, they immediately went to the rented arena to start training!
"Coach, we played very anxiously in the last game. There is a lot of luck in winning the game. In the next game, the Lakers will play at home. The combat effectiveness will definitely not be as strong as in the previous game. How should we deal with it?" Curry expressed his worries.
"Who told you they were going to be better than the last game?" Presti asked with a laugh.
"Isn't it? The bigger they are, the better," Curry questioned.
"The reason why they were able to catch up with the score in the last game was because I put in a lineup of 4 small and [-] big. Wasn't that lineup randomly played by Gasol and Bynum? Don't forget that the advantage of the Lakers is these two high lineups besides Kobe." Presti explained.
"But Artest will also return in the next game, and their striker strength will be greatly enhanced!" Paul George said on the sidelines.
"Artest's statistics this year are all new lows, and his state is very sluggish, so what if he comes back?" Presti smiled.
"Okay, let's all go to training. I found that you guys don't train well. It's useless to think about it. The problem of tactics is not your concern." Presti got up and laughed and cursed.
"Hey, aren't we sharing this for you?" The players laughed, and immediately got up to go to training.
