Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 331: Top Battle
After defeating the Sacramento Kings, the Clippers have achieved an impressive 11-game winning streak.
They have become hot in the league. Although they have been strong in the past two seasons, they always feel like "pseudo-strong teams."
Because in the playoffs, they were swept away for two consecutive seasons, did not show too strong competitiveness.
In the regular season, their fast and offensive style of play was considered unsuitable for fighting in the playoffs.
At the beginning of the season, the Clippers continued their last season's play, averaging soaring points per game, firmly occupying the league's first position.
After losing to the Magic and the Heat in succession, it was considered that they were still unable to compete with the strong team because they had no defense.
This wave of winning streak, the Clippers changes are obvious.
They are averaging fewer points per game, they no longer have the same cost as before, and they push back quickly in spite of everything.
Paul began to control the rhythm consciously, and gave the ball to Li Liang to organize when needed.
Li Liang's current organizational skills, he will not pass long.
He only has basic short pass, ground pass and use his space to open the ability to give teammates a better one-on-one attack space.
In general, the offensive end of the Clippers has become more layered, no longer blindly fast, no longer rely too much on Paul.
As a master of chicken soup, Rivers began to consciously play down the question of who is the leader of Li Liang-Paul in the team after coaching for a period of time.
Simply a two-headed system, whoever feels will fight, and the dispute between the two is less and less.
As for Griffin, he has completely become a three-headed player, and he is willing to lead the second team.
In addition to offensive, the Clippers change the most is defense, this must be thanks to Mike Brown.
After defeating the Kings to get an 11-game winning streak, the Los Angeles media have published articles in recognition of the changes that Mike Brown brought to the Clippers after coming to the Clippers.
Mike Brown, who was about to be blackened by the Lakers before, suddenly became the darling of the Los Angeles media.
Faced with such praise, Mike Brown was as stable as Tarzan, without any indication.
After all, he has seen many ups and downs in the league for many years, and he has seen more boasting blacks. Whether he is wearing a high hat or falling down, he can handle it calmly.
Now as an assistant coach of the Clippers, he has another important job to deal with, that is, the question of team recruitment.
At present, the Clippers players are mainly in the hands of Doug Rivers.
Just like the former head coach Negro, the Clippers like to add the positions of head coach, player supervisor, and even general manager to one person.
From the perspective of management and talent selection, this is more efficient. The head coach nominates who agrees, and that player can be introduced to the team.
Instead of the team like some, the manager does not like the person the manager wants, but the person the manager wants, the general manager can't get it.
Of course, there is definitely a disadvantage to too much power concentration, especially Rivers has no previous experience of introducing players.
At present, the Clippers are doing well overall, with a good record and lineup, but Rivers must consider the long-term.
The NBA schedule is very long, this is just the beginning.
Paul's injury sounded the alarm for the team, we must pay attention to the injury of the main players.
For the Clippers, the good news is that Bledsoe is coming back, and Paul will have a reliable substitute.
The bad news is that, at least in the eyes of Rivers, the news is not good, that is, the Clippers can't find Li Liang's reliable substitute.
Although Griffin is now in the second team, he will take over Li Liang's position when Li Liang ends.
But there really is no player, it is Li Liang's B selection.
If Li Liang is absent, the Clippers' current line-up system cannot even find a spare tire.
Rivers certainly did not know that Li Liang was wearing so much ugly equipment, as long as he was not beaten, the chance of injury was very low.
Besides, he is only in the second grade. It is the time when a player is the healthiest. Worrying about his injury is tantamount to worrying.
But there is no way, the Clippers have a fan boss, always want to get some operations out.
Ball defaulted that it was impossible to not have a substitute for Li Liang in the team. He had to get a shadow warrior for Li Liang.
Coincidentally, Lamar Odom, a former veteran of the Clippers, said that he hopes to return to the Clippers.
The Clippers originally planned to renew the contract with Odom in the summer, but Odom and the Clippers missed again for two reasons.
One is, of course, because of the arrival of Li Liang, the Clippers have no intention to negotiate with Odom again.
The second reason is that Odom has been plagued with negative news during this time. He is deeply involved in negative news such as divorce, drunk driving, and drugs.
Since Ballmer just bought this team, I do not want Odom to affect the team's new weather.
Since then, Odom has considered re-signing the Lakers, but the Lakers are in no better condition than Odom.
Overall, Odom still hopes to return to the Clippers.
After all, Odom has been in the league since 1998. Although there have been many places, 12 of the 14 seasons have been spent in Los Angeles.
One of them went to Miami, and staying in Miami was pretty good. After all, it is also a seaside city, and you can eat and play.
After going to Dallas once, the word of mouth collapsed completely, unable to adapt to the environment of the lone ranger, and finally went to Los Angeles with a bad reputation on his back.
For Odom, Los Angeles is his real home.
After Odom expressed in the media that he hopes to come to the Clippers, the Clippers certainly are considering whether to re-sign Odom.
There is currently a quota available for the Clippers, and it is not a problem to get Odom with a basic salary.
So that day Ballmer asked Li Liang if he wanted Odom to come to the team.
Since Li Liang agreed, Bauer defaulted that this signing could be considered.
After that, it was naturally the opinion of the coaching staff.
Rivers needs a comprehensive consideration, of which Mike Brown's opinion is of course very important.
Mike Brown thought, mom Li Liang agreed, can I disagree?
But as an NBA professional coach, the best coach winner, still have to show a little professionalism.
For this reason, Mike Brown pretended to have some comments in front of Rivers, and in the end it was the same.
In the end, Rivers had to make up his mind.
Rivers decided to talk to Odom personally after the game with the Pacers.
...
After playing the Kings away, the Clippers ended the game in November and the time entered December.
Throughout November, the Clippers achieved an impressive record. It can be said that this month's best month in the west is to be born between Li Liang and Paul.
Of course, the Clippers have such outstanding results, and the schedule has a certain relationship.
More than half of the games in November are at home, rarely away, and there are no consecutive away games.
The situation is not the same in December, the Clippers will usher in a long road trip to the east.
This will be the time to test the continuity and combat effectiveness of the Clippers players.
The first game in December was particularly eye-catching, Clippers VS Pacers, because this is the top battle between the East and West!
The Clippers 15-2 record is good enough, but they are only the first in the West.
The No. 1 position in the East is firmly occupied by the Indiana Pacers, who played an impressive record of 15 wins and 1 loss after the start of the season!
The Pacers were a pleasant surprise in the playoffs last season.
They eliminated the Knicks and pushed the Heat into a desperate situation.
This season, the Pacers have gone a step further and become stronger on the basis of last year.
Since the Auburn Hills Palace incident led to the destruction of the Pacers' championship, the Pacers have risen again in just a few years.
It has to be said that people die more than people, and they can be thrown away.
The Pacers are also small clubs, except for the draft free market, they can hardly sign any big players.
In this case, since the 1990s, the Pacers have always maintained a strong competitiveness.
One generation will not work, and it can be rebuilt very quickly in a few years, indicating that this team has a strong ability to regenerate blood.
Although they are always a breath away from the championship, it is not that they are not good enough, but in a business league, it is really too difficult for the ball to win the championship.
The momentum of the Pacers is quite fierce this year, and there is a great sense of having a career.
? Therefore, this dispute between East and West has attracted wide attention.
The game time is also scheduled at 3:30 pm Pacific time, so that fans in the east can watch the live broadcast of the game at night.
Before the start of the game, the Clippers announced the team’s roster, and Paul entered the starting list, indicating that his hamstring strain is not a big deal~www.readwn.com~ Paul is sure to participate in the dispute.
This is the time to verify the team's combat effectiveness.
Fox TV broadcasted the game live nationwide.
Prior to the game, Rivers interviewed Li Liang and Paul George.
"Paul George's progress is very rapid. He has grown into one of the best small forwards in the league. His defense and his shots are awesome. But we have Bruce Lee. Maybe many people have forgotten that he This year is only the second grade."
That's right, Li Liang is only in the second grade, let alone many people forget, Rivers, you didn't remember?
Did you train Li Liang as a rookie?
Will you train rookies?
Li Liang is still a kid in the NBA.
