Chapter 168 The Clippers' Summer
"Top of Asia, we are back!"
"Ansheng accurately predicted that China will win the championship!"
"The head coach at the last moment of the game - An Sheng!"
The Chinese team won the championship and returned to the top of Asia after 6 years, but they were not the headlines. All the media focused on An Sheng who was madly commanding the Chinese team's last defense at the last moment in the auditorium.
Why did they react so quickly to carry out An Sheng's command?
Of course, what is even more curious is why Anson knew Jordan's final offensive choice and final shot location, as if he was the one who drew this tactic for Jordan on the tactical board.
The instigator of all this is hiding at home and grieving over the 100 camera system points he has consumed. This time, the national team won the championship and has nothing to do with him. There are no tasks, no rewards, and no honor.
But all of these are just his own thoughts. In fact, he has already received great praise on the Internet. Many fans feel that Anson should hold up the banner of the national team when Yao Ming is no longer able to play in the London Olympics. , The enthusiastic support of the fans in this game gave Anson a huge response.
The end of the Asian Championships did not make Anson stop his training, but began to strengthen the two skills he had acquired last season, because it has been confirmed by Leon Rose that the NBA is about to end the lockout. And on November 11, NBA officials also issued the news that this season will start in the usual Christmas game, and the Clippers are also a member of the Christmas game.
Originally, the teams chosen for the Christmas game were the most star-studded and most powerful teams in the NBA.The finals between the Heat and the Mavericks was repeated. The Lakers faced last year's regular season champion Bulls and regular season MVP Derrick Rose at home. However, this time, the Clippers also became one of the teams in the opening game. They challenged the Warriors away One of the most gorgeous offensive teams in the NBA.
The reason why the Warriors appeared may be that the Warriors in the post-Nelson era are still playing gorgeously, and the reason why the Clippers appeared is that we have to talk about the transactions and signings they just completed.
On November 11, they completed the most shocking deal of this offseason summer. They used Eric Gordon to add Chris Kaman, Willie Warren and next year's first-rounder Signed for Chris Paul, this is the 26 regular season MVPNo.08, but such an outstanding player has never made it to the conference finals in so many years, just like the Clippers team, and the last time This is an ordeal for them, and this time they want to conquer him together. It has to be said that the sudden emergence of the Clippers last season pushed the Hornets out of the playoffs at the end, which is also one of the key reasons.
Los Angeles, Chris Paul participated in the press conference because he joined the Clippers. He was excited about this trade: "It's a good feeling. I like the city of Los Angeles. They were a great team last season. The team, Ann and Blake, are some of the most talented players I've ever seen, it's a great feeling to play with them, and hopefully my experience will help them."
This deal is very good, ushered in a superstar, although they lost Eric Gordon, but at the same time, the departure of Chris Kaman also relieved their pressure, not that Chris Kaman is not enough Excellent, his low-post ability is still the biggest threat to the Clippers in the low post on the court, but no matter how rich people are, they are not willing to spend tens of millions of dollars on the bench to raise this tens of millions of dollars. Is needed for Hornets ready to rebuild.
This transaction caused the Clippers to suffer varying degrees of losses on both the inside and outside benches. The game cannot be played to the end by relying on the starting 5 players, so obviously, the Clippers’ operations this offseason did not Finish.
Jason Richardson, a free agent who signed with the Magic for $2 million in 1500 years, is a forward and guard swingman with very good scoring ability. He became a 20+ scorer in the fourth season of his career, but In the contract year of last season, he didn't perform well, and he could only average 13.9 points and 4 rebounds per game. The Magic were obviously unwilling to pay a high price for this former All-Star, which also gave the Clippers a chance to take advantage of the fire.
Since then, the Clippers' outside line Chris Paul, Jason Stevenson, and Anson have formed a powerful outside trident combination. This trident not only has a strong offensive ability, but more importantly, their excellent defense.
There is no need to deny the strength of Chris Paul. The second team of the best defensive team twice and the first team of the best defense are the best proof. It's not because of injuries that this award will not be missed. As for the 07-08 season, Anson, the biggest bug in the history of steals, entered the nba, and he can only come in second, but now that they are on the same team, the ones who should tremble should probably be It is the opposite team, how to keep less than 08 turnovers in front of this Clippers, this has almost become a common problem for the remaining 09 teams.
Not to mention Anson, last season supported the Clippers' entire defensive system, the second best defensive player, the top steals, the top ten blocked shots, and the best defensive team. All these are just the achievements of this rookie.
Jason Richardson's defensive ability is not top-notch, and his lateral movement speed is not fast, but he has a very positive attitude and a pair of long arms. For the Clippers, this is enough!
The problem above the guards has been solved, but the inside substitute is still a problem, and there is not much time left for the Clippers this offseason. Reggie Evans has become their choice, and the basic salary of 200 million a year won. This rebounding idiot.
Main center DeAndre Jordan, backup center Reggie Evans, the combination of these two centers solidly told the opposite side that we gave up the way of scoring under the rebound.
Of course, the Clippers' outside players and Blake Griffin's firepower are fierce enough, and there are not many things that need them to do, rebounding and protecting the frame, and these two things are what these two insiders like to do most Their task every night is to have several passionate collisions between their beast-like bodies and the opposite insider.
I have to say that the replacement of the boss and the management team came in a timely manner. This summer, the Clippers’ operations have satisfied the fans. They feel that they are expected to break their destiny this season and reach the conference finals for the first time in 41 years. .
