I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 352 Maverick (Fifth)

Along the way, I chatted a lot with this strangely named Gan Liliang.

Min Congda knew that this kid loved basketball and insisted on studying in a famous American basketball school.

His father is a tractor sales tycoon in China. He is very rich. He donated a large sum of money to the University of Kentucky, sent his son to the school, and even got him a spot on the school team.

However, his basketball talent is really mediocre. Although he is more than two meters tall, let alone Kentucky, a strong basketball school, even if he is in an ordinary basketball school, he will not get any chance to appear on the court.

But no way, his father donated a lot of money, the school did not give face to others, but also to the green dollar face, so the coach Calipari gave him a substitute seat on the school team.

Although unable to appear on the court, Gan Liliang trains very hard every day because he really loves basketball.

March Madness ended in April, the NCAA entered the off-season, and the school curriculum was relatively loose. Gan Liliang traveled to San Antonio with his good friends to watch the playoffs while playing.

San Antonio is the base camp of Gan Liliang's father in the United States. His tractors are imported from Texas and sold to the Chinese market, and his annual sales are in the hundreds of millions.

"Damn it, is it a second generation?"

Why do you say again?That kid Fan Chen is the second generation, and he made a fool of Min Congda.

Now you have to be careful when you meet the second-generation Min Congda, what if you are credulous and get tricked?
Arriving at the crab fishing spot, everyone took out the chicken drumsticks they brought and started an interesting crab fishing trip.

Although it is not as exciting as fishing, it is also very interesting to catch crabs, which makes Min Congda feel that the trip is worthwhile.

Playing until sunset and dark, everyone set up a bonfire in the camp, boiled and grilled the crabs, and ate delicious crab meat.

Min Congda was very happy to meet the two compatriots, and had a drink together.

Min Congda asked curiously: "If you spend money like this to join the basketball team, you probably won't be able to enter the NBA in the future, right?"

Gan Liliang sighed, and said: "Yes, my level, let alone the NBA, is probably not good enough for the NBDL. In the remaining two years, work hard and train hard, maybe I can gain a foothold in the NBDL."

Min Congda said: "I wouldn't eat this bowl of rice if it wasn't for this piece of material. Your father is so rich. After graduation, he can sell tractors."

"I just don't want to sell tractors! I don't want to go back and inherit the family business. I just want to play basketball."

Min Congda shook his head, thinking that if I didn't want to complete this shitty task, I wouldn't be the general manager of the Clippers.

If I can inherit the family business, let alone selling tractors, I will sell toilets even if asked.

What's wrong with being in sales?There is fun in sales. Selling things to people who need them is not more interesting and successful than throwing that broken ball into the basket?

The two of them had their own thoughts, and they both sighed silently in their hearts.

After catching crabs and having a crab feast, I headed home.

On the way back, Min Congda asked Gan Liliang and Wei Dazhi, "How long are you going to stay in San Antonio? Do you want to go to Los Angeles?"

Gan Liliang said: "We are going back to school tomorrow, and there are still many things to do in school. But... if you have a game in San Antonio, we will definitely come over to watch the game."

Min Congda thought to himself, playing the second game against the Spurs tomorrow, and going to the fifth or seventh game, isn't it safe to go back to San Antonio?

Now that the Spurs are 0:1 behind, they must play at least the fifth game, and they will definitely return to San Antonio.

Can't the Clippers sweep the Spurs, right?
"No problem, wait until the Clippers play again in San Antonio, we will make an appointment in advance to catch crabs together!"

"Catch crabs together!"

The three exchanged contact information, and Min Congda returned to the hotel after getting off the car.

When other team managers play away games, they will spend time with the team.

Understand the status of the team, chat with players and coaches, and be sure about the next game.

This is the playoffs, not the regular season.

Only Min Congda was in the mood to go fishing for crabs.

In the past two days, the games in other battlefields of the playoffs continued.

On April 4, the Miami Heat played a rematch with the Orlando Magic.

With Howard, the Magic has completely lost the style of the previous two seasons.

Even after welcoming Turkoglu back, they couldn't find the feeling of winning.

In Miami, although Warcraft scored a super double-double of 21 points and 18 rebounds.

But his connection with his teammates was completely cut off, and Chris Bosh scored 27 points in this field.

Wade and Gay used sharp attacks to attack the Magic's weak defense.

The magic defense once supported by Howard is gone.

It becomes layerless, fragile, and full of loopholes.

Without the backing of such a defensive system, the Magic can't face the Heat's superhuman powers.

Gay, who has not been particularly well integrated into the Heat in the regular season, has found his role in the playoffs.

He is an out-and-out third player, taking some of the scum of the ball that Bosh and Wade have divided up, making good use of his offensive ability, and it is OK if the defense does not have too many loopholes.

In this way, the Heat's imperfect but good offense, coupled with an oppressive defensive system, defeated the Magic that was already on the verge of breaking.

The series took a 2:0 lead.

In another game in the East, the Chicago Bulls also used suffocating defense to strangle the Philadelphia 76ers, 2:0.

It can be seen that the strengths of the upper half and the lower half of the eastern region are quite different, and it is difficult for the lower half to pose a fatal threat to the upper half.

On April 4, the plot remained unchanged. The Cavaliers, Mavericks, and Celtics in the upper half all won the game, defended their home court, and took a 19:2 lead.

On April 4, the Clippers and the Spurs will have a rematch.

The other two games, Lakers vs Grizzlies, Thunder vs Nuggets.

According to the progress of the game, the teams in the upper half of the two games also won the victory.

The immature Griffin was still helpless in front of the three highs, with a dazed face, and the Lakers took the Grizzlies lightly.

The Nuggets without Anthony couldn't withstand the impact of Durant and Westbrook at all.

Durant, Westbrook, and Gordon scored 70 points together, 109:89, and swept the Nuggets with 20 points.

After grinding last year, the Thunder are not far from the second round of the playoffs.

Min Congda looked at the other rounds of the series and thought that ours is no exception, right?
The Spurs have learned the lesson of the first game, and they are brave after knowing their shame. With Ginobili's comeback, they must win the second game and defend their home court.

Min Congda is full of confidence in the Spurs!
Two and a half hours later, the Clippers made another victory in the away game at 110:107 in overtime.

James Harden hit a key three-pointer and strangled the Spurs with his teammates!

None of the Clippers scored 20 points, but 8 scored in double figures.

The maverick Clippers have become the only team in the lower half of the 8-round series that has a 2:0 lead!

People can't help but wonder, who is the first and who is the eighth?

At the end of the game, Min Congda left the court without saying a word, and put the popcorn bucket on the head of the reporter who wanted to interview him in the player tunnel.

The next day, he was punished by the league and fined $[-].
