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

Chapter 373 Old Deng's Only Nemesis (Fifth Change)

Min Congda said this just to coax Fan Chen.

After writing the article and tweeting it, all that's left is the void after the win.

So fucking empty, could have popped champagne and ended the season.

Well now, although the Clippers are still at a disadvantage, the outcome of the next game becomes very critical.

If the Clippers win, the two sides will go to Oklahoma City to play Tianwangshan, and the series will be suspenseful again.

More importantly, if he wins another game, Min Congda will lose another $3000, which is too much to bear.

So the Clippers must lose in the next game!

"I can't sit still, I have to act. The third game is a profound lesson. If I give the referee a little warning before the game... the warning is useless. I am on the Clippers side. The warning may be more biased. , I’m Gan Liliang’s.”

The days of being a traitor are really uncomfortable, and I often have to think in reverse.

After thinking about it, Min Congda thought that he still had to make a fuss about the Clippers' lineup.

As the general manager of the team, Min Congda still has a great influence on the team's starting and rotation.

As long as it is not particularly excessive lineup requirements triggering a system ban, the coaching staff will succumb to the general manager's coercion most of the time.

The last game of the regular season is an example, but it is a pity that it was a major failure of Min Congda's career.

In order not to repeat the same failure again, Min Congda asked the video analysis department to send the videos of the first three games to his computer.

He carefully reviewed the first three games, especially the third game, and came up with two key players for the Clippers to win: Curry and Ricky Davis.

Not only did they play at the critical moment of the fourth quarter, Curry opened up space, and Ricky Davis did all the dirty work in the third position, and occasionally showed outstanding offensive ability with the ball, They are the basis for the Clippers to win the game.

It can be said that Ricky Davis disappointed Min Congda very much.

The reason why he was kept in the first place was because of his high spirits.

It's a shame that a man who thought James was here to help him has degenerated into a 3D who does dirty work!
What's even more shameful is that this guy's offensive ability with the ball has not been lost. If the Thunder really let him go completely, he can give you a quick shot to let you understand what the soul of the first emperor is.

Not to mention Curry, recently he has been going to Curry's house for dinner more and more frequently.

Min Congda thought to himself, since you always win and make me lose money, I will make you poor.

"By the way, go to Curry's house tonight and discuss with him about the lineup for the fourth game."

As soon as Min Congda, who was super mobile, had an idea, he immediately called Curry and said that he would go to his house for dinner tonight.

Min Congda is like that old man who can calculate quickly in his head. Although the answer may not be correct, he can calculate quickly.

Curry agreed and told Ayesha, which made Ayesha a little unhappy.

"He came to eat a little too often. You finally came back from Oklahoma City and came to eat at home again."

Ayesha wanted to enjoy the world of the two of them tonight, but the big light bulb came to eat and drink again.

When Curry was injured and had surgery before, Ayesha gave up her acting career to focus on taking care of Curry.

The two plan to get married next year and change to a bigger house. The family needs to hire an extra cook and housekeeper to take care of life.

"It's okay, I think Mr. Smart may have something to talk to me about the game."

"It's all an excuse. He can go to Harden's house or George's house for dinner. They are also from Los Angeles."

"It's okay Ayesha, Smart is our best friend."

"I know, I know! I'm going to prepare dinner, and then you can have a good chat."

When Curry is at home, a dedicated chef will come to cook breakfast and lunch.

If you have dinner with family and friends, Ayesha will cook.

Min Congda is a good friend. When he comes to Ayesha, he will definitely cook by himself.

Bringing a bottle of red wine as a gift, Min Congda rushed to Curry's house in a hurry.

Because there are too many people here, there is no need to be courteous to each other, and they go directly to the table to eat.

After eating for a while, Min Congda revealed the purpose of his trip. He said, "Stephen, I think... you can play as a substitute in the next game."

Curry was stunned, and said: "I'm on the bench, why? I played well as a starter."

Min Congda said: "Then do you think we can win the fourth game?"

Curry was silent. To be honest, as a player on the court, he knew that there was a lot of luck in winning the third game.

Seriously, the Clippers' current lineup and strategy are no match for the Thunder.

But he felt very unwilling to let Curry be a substitute. Could it be that he really couldn't get rid of Sefolosha's defense?
Min Congda saw Curry's doubts and said, "Do you think the starting position and face are more important to you, or is the team's victory more important?"

Players starting in the NBA are not only based on team strategy and player strength considerations, but also reflect a player's status.

Why Iverson refused to accept playing as a substitute, because his status and face were damaged. For some black players, this is more important than obeying the team.

After all, most black players care about heroism, not the team.

Curry is different. Curry is a person with great team spirit. He is humble and forbearing, and rarely competes with others for the so-called status.

And the Clippers are very united and there is nothing to argue about.

When Min Congda said this, Curry nodded and said: "As long as the coaching staff asks me to play as a substitute, I will definitely agree. I can do anything for the team to win."

Min Congda smiled and said, "That's right, this is a good show. Of course, if the effect is not good, I will still let you go back to the starting lineup."

You can't talk too much, Min Congda thought that if one accidentally wins or the effect is good, Curry has to go back to the starting lineup.

Of course, Min Congda thinks that such a situation is extremely unlikely, because he has several other arrangements.

I had dinner at Curry's house, and the next day the whole team trained, and Min Congda went to the training center to have dinner again.

After the meal, he called a meeting of the coaching staff and gave instructions to Dunleavy:

"We won the third game because of luck, so we can't sit still in the fourth game, thinking that luck can come. Therefore, I think we need to make adjustments to the lineup and rotation!"

"I spoke to Steph Curry, he's going to come back to the bench for Game 1 and let...James Harden start. I talked to Ricky again at dinner and he's going to the bench and let... PJ Tucker starts. Also, in the rotation, I want to add Matt Bonner, who didn't get a minute in the first three games."

"Everyone has the ball to play! How many times do I have to emphasize, Lao Deng, I don't think you want to be this coach."

"OK, let's arrange the fourth scene like this, the meeting is over!"

Without giving the coaching staff any room to discuss and refute, Min Congda decided on the starting and rotation of the fourth game.

Cole looked at Dunleavy. The stubborn old vulture was full of helplessness, but he didn't get angry. He just spread his hands and said, "Mr. Smart has said so, let's make arrangements."

Steve Kerr finally understood that only Min Congda could control this old guy.
