You'd better wrap me

Chapter 265 Seems to be an old friend

One day off, the Clippers face the Mavericks.

ESPN live broadcasted across the United States, Chris Bunty and other well-known Su Hei spoke on Twitter, claiming that the Mavericks suffered four consecutive losses because they were in the running-in stage, and they were facing strong opponents in the Southwest Division like the Spurs and Rockets. Lose or lose, and against the Clippers is the best chance for the Mavericks to unite and get out of the quagmire. Because they were swept by the Clippers in the two playoffs, they will inevitably come up with stronger offense and defense to deal with revenge. What about taking turns playing singles and making strong shots? The situation will definitely not happen again, there must be cooperation.

Su Yang rushed to the base for training in the morning, watched the video and scout analysis as usual, and found that the scout report mentioned that the Mavericks did not renew the contract with Josh Howard in advance because of Tracy McGrady’s joining. The management was confused by the decision not to renew Howard's contract in advance. As for Josh Howard himself, in the four games, he was singled out and fought a few times.

The scouting report speculated that Howard felt threatened by the addition of Tracy McGrady, and Avery allowed Howard to go one-on-one.

"This report is quite accurate..."

Su Yang gave a thumbs up to his colleagues in the scouting department. Before the Butterfly Effect, Mavericks coach Avery Johnson did not trust Nowitzki so much, but trusted Josh Howard even more. He wanted to praise Josh Howard. Become the boss, and then was swept out by Cuban's fury, and the Mavericks also won the championship in the second season after sending away Josh Howard.

Continue to watch the videos and scout reports, and find that McGrady played very awkwardly in the preseason, and the first four games of the regular season were also very embarrassing, because the single-handed style of play is very similar to the time when he won the scoring champion in the Magic, But it's not that he fires infinitely, but takes turns.

In short, McGrady's joining the Mavericks, apart from successfully letting Terry play as a substitute, did not play the desired effect at all.

After watching the video, Spoelstra arranged the game strategy: "We need a lot of off-ball cuts on the offensive end to punish the Mavericks for not being able to focus on defense. Rhythm.

If the Mavericks use heads-up a lot, let them play heads-up. According to Su Yang's point of view, most of them are stupid points. "

Varejao and the others burst out laughing. Su Yang's theory of "stupid points" is too ridiculous. The mid-range shot is the lowest offensive scoring method. If you want to "smartly score points", you have to make more fouls and hit the basket. Baskets and three-pointers, the fouling efficiency is particularly high.

"Don't laugh, let me do the math for you. Even with a 60% free throw percentage, the scoring efficiency is higher than the offensive efficiency of most teams, not counting the added value of fouls, such as disrupting the opponent's rotation, delaying The rhythm of the game and so on..."

Su Yang calculated solemnly, Varejao and the others looked more serious, and finally they all nodded in agreement with that statement.

"Of course, making a foul is to hand over the decision to the referee. You can play around at ordinary times, but you can't focus on making fouls at critical moments. Once the referee doesn't call the penalty, it is easy to make a live ball error and be counterattacked..." The reason is very simple, but rarely Some players can switch between taking the initiative to make fouls and giving up making fouls. It is basically an extreme mode, either not making a foul at all, or making it obsessively.

Various trainings followed.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the game started.

The Clippers won the jump ball. Seeing the Mavericks' concentration, Su Yang decisively signaled Iguodala to go down quickly. As soon as Iguodala started, Varejao tacitly made a back screen, and Su Yang followed A quarterback-style long pass, Iguodala received a dunk in the air.

The typical Clippers opening tactics, focusing on defense and lack of concentration, made Coach Avery Johnson spread his hands in anger.

Turning to the Mavericks to attack, Howard tried to use Dampier's cover to get the ball up, but Iguodala and Milicic followed Su Yang's pre-match guidance of "letting go of players with big contracts and double-teaming those who have not yet signed big contracts." Players' thinking, decisively teamed up without the ball to double-team Howard, and Mavericks point guard Harris wanted to give it to the inside, but Dampier was not ready, so he could only hand it to McGrady on the outside.

Seeing that McGrady has the ball, Josh Howard still wants the ball, but McGrady is not used to it, so he just pulls it out coolly.

The basketball rebounded with a bang. Dampier, who was in a good position because the Clippers double-teamed Howard without the ball, grabbed an offensive rebound. Facing the interference of Milicic's return defense and Su Yang's shrinking steal threat, he chose to hand the ball to McGrady again. processing.

With that operation, Josh Howard immediately turned sideways and walked back, as if to prove that the Mavericks' offense had nothing to do with him.

Mavericks coach Avery Johnson said nothing.

McGrady hit the iron again.

The Clippers got the rebound and counterattacked. Su Yang received the ball and passed it to Iguodala who was about to go down. Josh Howard instinctively ran two steps, but only two steps, he stopped speeding up to catch up and watched Iguodala The dunk with an empty basket made McGrady and the others look puzzled.

Mavericks coach Avery Johnson didn't say anything either.

The game continued, the two teams came and went, and the situation did not change. With the Clippers targeting, Josh Howard had no chance.

Josh Howard played decisively, and Iguodala either held the ball and took it alone, or ran back to the bottom line to attack the basket.Su Yang took the opportunity to slam assists and got 11 assists in the half, which also helped the Clippers lead the Mavericks 60 to 35, allowing the game to enter garbage time early.

Back from the halftime break, the Mavericks made a huge change. Various double screens helped Josh Howard get the ball. However, the Clippers changed defenses endlessly, causing Josh Howard's chances to be mediocre. In the entire third quarter, he only made 7 of 1 shots. Among them, it is almost equal to free.

The Mavericks' offense then collapsed, completely losing the possibility of chasing points and reversing, while Su Yang got a triple-double and clocked out of get off work.

In the fourth quarter, the Clippers focused on the training of Millsap, Tucker and Kaman, and finally won 103 to 85.

Participating in the press conference after the game, when talking about the opening five consecutive victories and five consecutive triple-doubles, whether to consider impacting better results than 34 consecutive victories and 73 consecutive victories, Su Yang said bluntly: "No, we almost lost to the Diggers before. Kim, we keep our health first..."

Fans and commentators discussed the results of the game at the same time. Well-known Su Hei Chris Bunty quietly deleted tweets predicting that the Mavericks would unite as one. Not everyone can deal with not renewing the contract with the potential players in the team in advance. The Clippers encountered Ray Allen joining and gave up renewing the contracts of Milicic and Kaman in advance. It can only be said that Su Yang's leadership ability is too strong. Make everything look so easy, otherwise there will be farce like Mavericks.

The Clippers got three days off after beating the Mavericks. Su Yang was busy with the company’s affairs, and took time to accompany Ivanka to record "Youtube Watching the World", complaining about those famous American figures printed on the US dollar, and promulgating the "Declaration of Independence" in 1776 , claiming that all men are created equal, and then came up with black slavery and the Chinese Exclusion Act, probably because blacks and Chinese are not considered human beings in their eyes.

By the way, a wave of Congress’s unplanned use of public funds will be confiscated even if it enters Congress.

After the program was uploaded, it received more than [-] views in less than half an hour, far surpassing Ivanka's previous achievements.

After 24 hours passed, the number of broadcasts of the program reached 653 million, sparking an upsurge of discussion in major forums. Su Yang then announced that he would pay thousands of dollars in remuneration to the creators of the requisitioned jokes, which aroused heated discussions among netizens. money.

Su Yang didn't think too much about it, anyway, he can't do the kind of thing that uses Internet hotspots and pretends to be his own original thing.

The program quickly attracted the attention of the "New York Times", and a discussion was held on the front page. The topic was whether Su Yang's evaluation of American history could be tolerated. Except for the magenta neck, other netizens agreed with Su Yang's point of view and did something wrong. We must have the courage to admit mistakes.

As the nominal host and producer, Ivanka was interviewed by FOX News. It was the first step to reach the white Oprah. She was happy all day long. In the evening, she specially invited Su Yang to drink at the villa, but Su Yang still did not take the initiative. Go on the offensive.

Ivanka must be unable to control herself first.

NO.13, the Clippers played at home against the Hornets. Su Yang led the team to 22+12+11 and easily won six consecutive victories. The main Hornets coach Scott is an idiot. Without a super point guard to overwhelm the team, he will only let the Hornets players Play is limited.

After switching defenses, the Clippers flew to Salt Lake City overnight, rested for a morning, and challenged the Jazz back to back.

According to the previously determined plan, Ray Allen and Grant Hill took turns to rest. Su Yang started with Barnes and took Tucker as a substitute. However, after the Jazz got Boozer in the offseason, their strength increased greatly. , It's hard to fight.

The Jazz crazily shrunk the inside, forcing the Clippers without Ray Allen and Hill to take more three-pointers, and then used Okur and Boozer to control the rebounds and hit a quick counterattack, consuming the strength of the Clippers who fought back to back on the plateau. Human efficiency plummeted.

Only Su Yang remained stable in the Clippers team. He had no choice but to play for 42 minutes. However, he failed to tie the three-pointer and scored 64 points. The consecutive triple-double record was also interrupted. He only had 8 assists and 8 rebounds. Still averaging a triple-double.

Back in Los Angeles, the Clippers rested for four days.

Su Yang brought Blake Lively and Yanxi together to attend the "Juno" promotional conference, and announced that Thanksgiving is scheduled, that is, there are still nine days left, and everyone is invited to watch the movie and post a movie review on Twitter, and 1000 million will be drawn Lucky movie fans will be given a set of movie art settings and reward those excellent movie critics.In short, it is to spend a little money on high publicity and make good use of Twitter.

At the same time as the press conference was held, Robert Downey Jr. and other stars helped to promote "Juno" on Twitter or Facebook, and all kinds of funny tweets, such as a story about a Chinese student deceiving an American girl's body, called on netizens to criticize Su Yang's role .

NO.18, the Clippers played against the 76ers at home.

The 76ers have internal and external troubles. They have bought out Webber before, and there are rumors that they are going to send Iverson away. The whole team has no cohesion visible to the naked eye. Only Elton Brand is struggling to support it. Swipe rebounds and assists, lead the team to win easily.

Back in the locker room after the game, Su Yang looked at his phone and found a text message from Desmond Farmar, saying that he would play in the next game between the Clippers and the Supersonics. Xiong, finally face up in the NBA arena.
