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

Chapter 75 Happy Night
Salt Lake City, Utah, the Energy Solutions Center, which claims to be one of the league's most terrifying devil's home courts.

The fanaticism of the fans in Salt Lake City, coupled with the harshness of the plateau home court, made every player who came here suffer.

Michael Jordan suffered from here, McGrady and Yao Ming also suffered from here, leaving a shadow on Chinese fans.

But tonight, the Clippers celebrated at the end of the game, hoisting Stephen Curry high into the air.

There was a smile on the kid's face, he was destined to hit the headlines tonight, he took the win and made that goddamn [-]-pointer.

In the last attack of the Clippers, Dunleavy boldly gave Curry a chance to make a three-point shot. Curry used two screens to find a chance at the top of the arc through a delicate movement, and directly caught the ball and made a three-point shot.

This time he didn't miss the opportunity like he did against the Suns, and made a steady three-pointer to help the Clippers overtake the Jazz!

The Clippers, who fell behind for a whole game, completed a Jedi counterattack at the last moment.

As the Jazz failed in their last offense, the Clippers won the game!

The Clippers created a comeback miracle, and Stephen Curry is the creator of this miracle.

He played mediocre in the first three quarters, only scored 2 points, sent 1 assist, and did not perform much.

But in the last few minutes, he hit 2 three-pointers and sent 3 very crucial assists.

With 8 points and 4 assists in the game, he single-handedly directed the Clippers' final comeback, and the title of No. [-] pick is well-deserved!
Dunleavy stood on the sidelines and watched the players throw Curry around, thinking: "Stephen really has a lot of energy in his body, but...he still needs to hone and hone, let him carry the burden too early, Not necessarily a good thing.”

Dunleavy was optimistic about Curry's potential before. After three games, he gradually confirmed this point and was determined to slowly train this young man.

However, Dunleavy's positioning of Curry is still a comprehensive and excellent traditional point guard. Although he hit a lore three-pointer, his organization and passing in the last few minutes are also very important. He and Gordon are quite good. .

Dunleavy also noticed a person who was easily overlooked, and that was PJ Tucker, who was playing for the first time tonight.

It was originally a cutscene, but the garbage time was dragged down after a few minutes, and Tucker didn't have any statistics on the court.

But Dunleavy noticed that his two defenses were very good when he was on the court.

"The attitude is very good, but the talent is indeed a bit lacking, but...it also has potential. It seems that Manager Smart has two tricks in selecting people."

At the beginning of the summer training camp, Min Congda and Deng Lewei said that "everyone has the ball to play", Dun Levy didn't take it to heart at all, thinking that this kid is talking nonsense, where does everyone have the ball to play, what makes the players free Development, do you think this is a university?
Professional teams are all about fighting for results and paying attention to the present.

But as time went by, after three games, Deng Lewei gradually realized a little bit of Min Congda's intentions.

In the past, the Clippers paid too much attention to the record, only focused on the present, and were short-sighted. They even missed Kobe in the 1996 draft. Kobe had tried out for the Clippers at that time.

The Clippers' scouting team and management said that Kobe's talent is very good, but if they choose Kobe, "we will become a joke in Los Angeles."

Because Kobe was too young at that time, only 17 years old, and there were too many uncertainties in the future, the Clippers needed immediate combat power and more mature players.

The results of it?The Clippers who did not choose Kobe still became a joke in Los Angeles, but Kobe became the real king of Los Angeles.

From 1996 to 2009, in 13 spring and autumn years, Kobe has brought 4 championships to the Lakers.

As for the Clippers, a Western Conference semifinal is their highest honor in 13 years.

After Kobe lost in the Western Conference semifinals in 2003, he cried bitterly.

Now, Dunleavy looks at Stephen Curry like a child and thinks: "Maybe this is the Kobe Bryant that Smart brought to the Clippers?"

Tonight is joy for the Clippers players. Victory can take away the fatigue, the badness of the away locker room, the noisy stadium environment in Salt Lake City and the unprofessional service of the hotel.

Curry participated in the post-match interview. He couldn't hide his happiness, smiled like a squirrel, and said: "I missed a key three-pointer in the last game. I blame myself. I keep thinking, If there is such an opportunity next time, I will definitely grasp it firmly. Fortunately, I have such an opportunity tonight. When Coach Dunleavy said that he wanted me to shoot the last ball, I secretly made up my mind. I must throw the ball in!"

This goal and this victory are very important to Curry. His confidence at the critical moment will be built. What a big heart needs to hone is both innate and the result of continuous accumulation.

Michael Jordan's lore against Georgetown in the 1982 NCAA Finals was destined to be a super killer.

And Chris Webber called the non-existent timeout in the 1993 NCAA finals, causing the Michigan Five Tigers to lose the championship. Since then, Webber has always fallen short in NBA games.

After the interview was over and the team returned to the hotel, Curry couldn't sleep at all.

He first called Ayesha, poured out his excitement and happiness after the lore was successful, and then received a call from his father Dell Curry. In addition to congratulating his son, Dell Curry reminded him: "You should Give Mr Smart a call and he'll be delighted with your win and performance."

"I know, I'll call Mr. Smart as soon as I finish the call with you," Curry said.

As a result, after Curry hung up the phone with his father, he dialed Min Congda's cell phone number, but it was shown that the other party's cell phone had been turned off, and it was transferred to voicemail...

"Why is Mr. Smart turned off? Is the phone dead? Nothing will happen to him in Los Angeles?"

So Curry called Ada, but Ada said that Smart had come home from get off work very early and said he wanted to watch the game at home.

Hearing that Min Congda's cell phone was turned off, Ada called Min Congda's apartment. It turned out to be a busy signal. Could something have happened to Mr. Smart?
Ada was worried, and drove out to Min Congda's apartment at night. He knocked on the door several times, and the door opened with a "click".

Min Congda stood at the door, with a bit of surprise on his face, "Ada? Why are you here?"

Seeing that Min Congda was fine, Ada breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Stephen called me and said your cell phone was turned off, and I called your home again, but it was a busy tone. I was a little worried, so I came to have a look."

Min Congda smiled awkwardly. After Curry beat the Jazz with a three-pointer, he knew that many people would call to congratulate or congratulate him, so he turned off his mobile phone and unplugged the phone line at home, wanting to be quiet and quiet.

Think about what's going on with the Clippers now, why they always win!
"I'm really sorry, my phone is out of battery, the phone... Maybe the phone is also in arrears? Haha, come in, do you want a drink?"

With a suspicious expression on Ada's face, she poked her head into the apartment and said, "Are you alone? Isn't your secretary, Miss Daddario?"

Min Congda smiled bitterly: "She is not my secretary, you are my secretary. She has gone back to New York and has work to do."

Ada just entered the apartment, sat down on the sofa, and saw that Min Congda was about to talk about tonight's game, but Min Congda said: "Don't congratulate me! Don't talk about tonight's game! It's over, don't mention it again. "

Ada took back what she wanted to say, and Min Congda poured her a glass of beer, and said, "He came by car? Can you drink?"

Ada nodded and said, "A glass of beer, no problem."

Min Congda handed the wine glass to Ada, and said, "Ada, I want to ask you a few questions, and you must answer me truthfully."

Ada took the cup and felt a little nervous. What kind of questions would Manager Smart ask herself?

Min Congda asked: "Do you think there are any areas for improvement in the team's current management?"

Ada didn't expect Min Congda to ask this question, she is a personal assistant, how can these things be said.

"Uh...I...I think the Clippers are pretty good in all aspects. Under the leadership of Mr. Smart, we are all pretty good, especially with a lot of salary increases for everyone. But..."

"but what?"

"But I heard from Mr. Rosser that our ticket revenue is not very good, and we can't support it financially..."

"Very good!" Min Congda took a sip of beer, looked at Ada's puzzled eyes, and hurriedly explained: "I mean, it's very, very good that you can convey Mr. Rosser's opinion to me."
