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

Chapter 66
At the press conference after the game, Min Congda participated in the question and answer as the general manager of the Clippers.

"How do you evaluate Curry's performance tonight? He hit two key three-pointers at the last moment."

"So-so, as the No. [-] pick, he has flashes of inspiration, but overall there is still room for improvement."

"Mr. Smart, what is the goal of the Clippers this season? Will you focus on making the playoffs?"

"I didn't set goals for my players. When I first took office, I told Coach Dunleavy that my goal is to let every player's ability be brought into play, and the record is not what I like."

"Mr. Smart..."

"Can you ask the players and the coaches some questions? Stop staring at me and asking, am I breaking the law?"

The reporters at the press conference burst into laughter. Min Congda always speaks quickly to reporters and rarely uses official accents, so everyone likes to ask him questions.

As the NBA becomes more and more standardized and incomes are getting higher and higher, many players are very restrained in their speech, repeating those few sentences over and over again, and the reporters feel very boring when writing articles, and have nothing to write.

People like Min Congda, who often speak surprisingly and without a chin, are very popular with reporters, and they are simply treasures.

Min Congda left the press conference hall and went to the locker room to have a look. As soon as he entered, everyone was celebrating the victory inside. Thornton was singing while taking a bath in the shower room. Kaman took off his shirt and danced an unknown dance. Dove sat under a locker, listening to music through giant headphones, packing his luggage.

Seeing Min Congda coming in, everyone wanted to cheer and celebrate, but Min Congda's expression was gloomy, everyone fell silent and looked at each other, wondering what's wrong?
Manager Smart doesn't seem very happy, are we too complacent?That's right, the first game of the regular season has just been played, and there is still a long schedule ahead. There is obviously an element of luck in this victory.

Min Congda didn't want to embarrass the players, but it was hard for him to be happy after winning the game. After adjusting his emotions, he sighed and said, "Congratulations, you have won the first victory of the new season."

The mood in the locker room erupted again. Amidst the jubilation of the crowd, Min Congda turned and left the locker room, thinking, "You guys are too happy, let you be proud first, and you will lose later!"

The opening game is over, and the reports after the game have also been released. The news that the defending champion lost to the lowly Clippers in the first game became the headlines of this game day.

Kobe scored a game-high 33 points in this battle. With neither team scoring more than 90 points, the score of 33 points is very high.

It's just that Kobe missed two key shots at the end, which caused the Lakers to lose at home and opened the door. It seems to indicate that the Lakers' road to defending the title in the new season will not be so smooth.

In addition to Bryant, Bynum scored 20 points inside, Lamar Odom 16 points, Artest 10 points, other players did not score in double figures.

The Lakers' bench is even more pitiful, only scoring 3 points, and the impact of Gasol's absence is very great.

For the Clippers, Zach Randolph scored a team-high 24 points and 10 rebounds.

In fact, Randolph also averaged 20+10 per game with the Clippers last season, but the media criticized him for playing cancer, with few assists and no passes to collect statistics.

Randolph was as solid as ever tonight, but with the team winning, that's all.

Kaman scored 16 points, Curry scored 12 points, and Gordon scored 18 points. Everyone played well.

Boss Baron Davis performed poorly. He scored 1 goal and scored 7 points. Although he had [-] assists, what is the difference between you and Kidd?
Curry came off the bench for 18 minutes, hit two very critical three-pointers, and misled the Lakers' defense at the last moment, playing a vital role.

After the game, some media have already posted an article saying that Stephen Curry is worthy of this No. [-] pick.

But more experts and fans said that it is not possible to "discuss in one game". Whether Curry is worthy of the No. [-] pick depends on his performance later.

In the other three games of the game day, a high-profile matchup in the East, the Boston Celtics defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 95:89 on the road.

Kevin Garnett returned from injury, and the Celtics Big Three are still one of the strongest teams in the Eastern Conference.

James scored 38 points alone in the game, but he was as isolated as Kobe today. No one from his teammates scored 20 points. It was just his one-man show, and he still couldn't beat the Big Three.

The Houston Rockets lost to the Portland Trail Blazers in the Rose Garden away game. The two teams met in the playoffs last season. Yao Ming led the Rockets to take away the Trail Blazers with a relatively easy 4:2, passing the playoffs for the first time in his career first round.

It's a pity that Yao Ming was injured and reimbursed in the second round against the Lakers, and the Rockets lost in the semifinals. After one summer, things have changed. Yao Ming's injuries are not optimistic. This Chinese big man is already crumbling. Although he is only 29 years old, the golden age of a center .

Although the Blazers won the game, the 07 No. 2 pick Greg Oden, who was also plagued by injuries, performed disappointingly on the court. He scored 3 points in a single game, made 1 of 7 shots, and had 5 turnovers and [-] fouls.

But he also contributed 5 blocks and 12 rebounds, so fans have hope for him.

In another game, the Wizards defeated the Dallas Mavericks. Jason Kidd echoed Baron Davis in distant Dallas. He hit 2 goals and scored 4 points, fully interpreting the selflessness of traditional point guards. .

Of course, the team just lost. They were blown away by Arenas and scored 29 points.

On October 10th, the first game day ended like this, with some happy and some sad.

But if you want to say that Min Congda must be the most worrying one. Win the new season at the start, or win the Lakers?
Not to mention the 2000 yuan salary is gone, what should I do if I get better and better after this?Is it still rotten?

When Min Congda got home at night, he thought hard again, thinking about what he did wrong.

He opened the Goup Forum on the computer to check the articles related to the Clippers game, all of which said "potential", "something", "shit luck", "change the soup without changing the medicine", "the cancer is in charge", "The boss won, but the teammates are too good", "Let you play a game"...

There is no logic in these replies. Many of the IDs bear the words KOBE and bright yellow headshots. The three sentences are inseparable from Kobe. They are all talking about the Lakers and occasionally mentioning the Clippers consolingly.

At night, Min Congda couldn't sleep anyway, so he opened these posts and looked carefully, only to see the subtext behind these replies, all of which read "the Clippers are rotten"!
"Judging from my series of operations in the summer, I must be playing badly. There is nothing wrong with this. The draft is blindly selected, and the team does not trade, leaving a bunch of veterans. The record will not be better than last season. How much better. The fans in the forum have said that the Clippers won this game because of luck, and Gasol’s absence, the Clippers have not improved in essence.”

"Well... don't worry, by the way, the next game will be at home, right? Please come to Staples to watch the game, I don't know if she is still in Los Angeles."

Thinking of D'Addario, Min Congda's mind became active again. The depression caused by the win was swept away, and he sent a text message directly to D'Addario, inviting her to come to Staples to watch the next game against the Suns.

Daddario quickly responded to the message, saying yes, she is still in Los Angeles.

Min Congda was in a happier mood, and then thought, "D'Addario is not a big star, so he probably won't bring any celebrity friends here? It doesn't matter, who likes to watch the Clippers' ball."

The next Clippers home game against the Suns, including pre-sales, only sold more than 80.00%, who made their team weak, and the ticket price is still expensive?
