Chapter 275 Whoever loses will be embarrassed (10,000-word chapter)

What is it like to play with the youngest MVP in Los Angeles history?

Everyone on the Clippers just feels like they are being sprayed every day!

The training camp started on September 15th. After half a month, everyone in the Clippers team felt a little numb.

As the regional broadcaster of the Clippers this season, Fox Sports will provide viewers in the Los Angeles area with some daily training of the Clippers every day.

Then everyone enjoyed seeing Chris Paul angrily yelling at his teammates, Li Ze beating everyone on the Clippers in a simple one-on-one warm-up, and head coach De Nagro worrying about tactics...

The melon-eating public watched it with great joy every day. The gossip tabloids in Los Angeles began to report that Li Ze and Griffin had party parties every day, Vera Holland brought Li Ze home, and Griffin's current girlfriend Bessie

Negbor is having a breakup.

The CW took the opportunity to recommend their new drama "Arrow",

The sensible editor posted the beautiful photos of the 2010 Miss America Pageant. After seeing the photos, fans in Los Angeles expressed their willingness to take over "the most beautiful woman in Kansas".

The more interesting news is that Andrew Jordan seems to have poached Griffin. In short, the relationship is extremely confusing.

Compared with the Lakers team next door, which is all old guys, the lives of the young players of the Clippers are what fans like to see. They can gossip and everyone likes to hear about it.

The above are just the feelings of the fans, and everyone on the Clippers has been almost harassed by the media in the past half month.

On September 30, with the new season approaching, four people on TNT's Inside the NBA program started talking about the same old thing again and predicted the NBA championship for the 2012~2013 season.

"Believe me, the Heat will reach the finals again. No team in the Eastern Conference can compete with them. In the third year of running together, the Big Three have become more accustomed to each other. More importantly, LeBron James is in his own moment.

At the peak of his career, he will win a championship."

O'Neal continued to stand up for James, and Charles Barkley also nodded and stated the facts and reasonedly:

"It will be difficult for the Thunder to make up for the lack of Kayce. Don't forget that our young MVP averaged 28.8 points per game in the regular season last year. Although Durant is a super scorer, I am not optimistic that he can lead the team to achieve the previous record.

"

"And in the offseason, the Heat also traded Rashard Lewis and Chris Anderson. The former can provide them with outside vitality, and the latter can solve the problem of inside frame protection. The overall lineup is becoming more complete, and no one will

They are their opponents."

When the host Ernie Johnson heard what the two said, he immediately changed the topic to Los Angeles:

"What about the Lakers? The second-generation F4. I think the Lakers will definitely be successful in the new season. Kobe and Howard, I am very much looking forward to this combination."

"Howard has no dominance inside. Look at his lame low-post offense. Steve Nash is already 38 years old. The Lakers have lost the qualification to compete for the championship!"

The petty O'Neal has always disliked Howard taking away the title of "Superman", and he was even more unceremonious in his criticism. He talked nonsense in front of the camera and belittled Howard as worthless.

Kenny Smith felt something was wrong and quickly brought the topic to Li Ze:

"Aren't you optimistic about the Clippers? Kayce, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, the Big Three in Los Angeles, and I think the Clippers' current lineup is very good, and they have a chance to win the championship!"

When Charles Barkley heard what his old partner said, he put on a serious expression for the camera, and then went all out to blast Griffin:

"Last season he averaged 20.7 points and 10.9 rebounds per game. Compared with his rookie season, his data has declined across the board, and his free throw percentage was only 52.1%. Believe me, he is already addicted to the wonderful life in Los Angeles."

"He is still an All-Star player, but thinking about the insiders of the Western Conference teams, I don't think Griffin will be able to perform well in the new season, not to mention that in the playoffs, his data will be comprehensive

shrink!"

This time O'Neal also started to speak for Barkley. Looking at the technical statistics in his hand, he said in a deep voice:

"That's it. Compared to a super scorer like Durant, Griffin is just a big man who likes to dunk. If we go back to 2000, I will let him know what a real tough guy is."

Hearing such comments, Charles Barkley laughed on the sidelines. He likes to criticize current inside players on the show. Griffin was caught in the crossfire, but he still did not stop criticizing the Clippers:

"I mean no disrespect to new Clippers manager Gary Sachs, but I still have a hard time understanding why he would trade a potential first-round pick for a summer league player."

"Marcus Morris is the 14th pick in the first round. Although his new season with the Rockets is a mess. He only played 17 times and scored 2.2 points. But don't forget that he is 6 feet 9 inches (2.06 meters).

)'s height, the Clippers should not trade him to the Suns."

"Jimmer Fredette was the tenth overall pick last year. Although he averaged 7.6 points per game in his rookie season and only shot 38.6% from the field, we can all see that he has the ability to become an outside scorer. As a result, the Clippers

The team sent him to the Bulls again."

After saying these words, Charles Barkley shook his head and looked at the camera with an incomprehensible look. Host Earl Johnson began to smooth things over and help the Clippers:

"But through the trade, they gained two second-round picks, which made up for the loss of draft picks caused by the previous trade. I think the Clippers have the best backcourt combination in the league. Chris Paul was selected to the first team last year.

Perfect for Kayce.”

After hearing this point of view, O'Neill looked at the technical statistics in his hand and said without raising his head:

"But statistically speaking, Westbrook, who averaged 23.6 points per game last season, performed better. Even Chris Paul, who was in the best form in the 2008-09 season, only averaged 22.8 points per game. This Clippers team

, there is no comparison with the previous Thunder team."

"Furthermore, both members of the Clippers have potential injuries. Chris Paul has suffered a major injury, Blake Griffin is still recovering from left knee surgery, and both Westbrook and Durant are basically at full attendance.

.”

"From all aspects, this Clippers team has no chance of winning the championship. Do you expect Kayce to average 30+ per game in every game? They will have a good record, but I am not optimistic about their performance in the postseason.

Performance in the game.”

"."

Chris Paul, who was at home in Los Angeles, naturally watched this program. Since Li Ze came to the team, the media have frequently compared the Clippers and the Thunder, and finally came to the conclusion:

"Westbrook is better! Durant completely defeated Griffin."

A reporter accompanying the Clippers promoted the Big Three and was ridiculed by many people.

Compared with ordinary teams, the Clippers have three All-Stars. Everyone generally believes that the Clippers can reach the playoffs, but no one believes that they can reach the finals.

Traditional point guards are outdated. With the Thunder winning the championship for two consecutive years, everyone thinks that a No. 1 position like Westbrook who is impactful, can score, and can defend is the championship puzzle piece.

Griffin and Andrew Jordan in the paint are rough guys with a free throw percentage of just over 50%. In contrast, the Lakers' Super Twin Towers, the Spurs' Duncan, and the Grizzlies' Black and White Bears are stronger inside.

"Stop watching these boring sports programs. Maybe we shouldn't subscribe to TNT. They haven't said a good word for you this whole offseason!"

Jadak Larre complained to Chris Paul while taking care of his baby that compared to New Orleans, since coming to Los Angeles, there have been more off-court factors.

"It's just a diversion when I'm bored. I don't care about these comments. We are going to prepare a party in a few days. Kayce and his teammates will come over!"

Chris Paul smiled and teased his son. Although he said he didn't care, in his heart he cursed the media for being disrespectful.

He was selected to the first team last season and won the steals title. Where has all your respect gone?

"I know! Kayce seems to be easy to get along with, but his love life seems to be in a mess. Fox Sports is counting his rumored girlfriends these days."

When he thought of Li Ze and Griffin, who had been partying every day recently, Paul was a little speechless. In his opinion, the two of them had let themselves go.

"."

The average NBA player's career is only 4.8 years. First-round rookies can only get a 2+1+1 guaranteed contract. Once they fail to produce excellent data within the two-year guaranteed contract, they will basically say goodbye to the big contract.

.

On the morning of October 1st, just after training ended in the Clippers training facility, Gary Sachs came to Li Ze and asked with concern:

"How do you feel, Kayce? If you feel there is a problem with the current lineup, you can always give me feedback."

Seeing the other party's concerned look, Li Ze guessed that Gary Sachs might have watched the TNT program and was afraid that he might have some misunderstanding. He felt a little funny in his heart, but on the surface he comforted him warmly:

"My teammates are all good, relax Gary, I understand your decision, don't forget I'm a rookie too, I understand their choice!"

Marcus Morris, the budding rookie acquired from the Rockets trade, has one year left on his guaranteed contract. What the opponent needs this season is data, and in the Clippers, what coach DeNagro needs is a defensive tool.

There was a natural conflict between the two parties, and Morris wanted to pursue more money, so the agent made a fuss. In the end, the Clippers chose to trade the other party.

Cole Aldridge and Lazar Hayward, who were traded to the Clippers together with Li Ze, are the same. They serve as the atmosphere team in the Thunder, have very little playing time, and have basically no data.

Under this situation, the two also wanted to fight for the next contract. After understanding each other's wishes, the Clippers sent them to the Kings and Rockets respectively, and everyone was reunited and separated.

Seeing that he had no objection to the golden thigh, Gary Sachs breathed a sigh of relief.

The big boss only watches football. Steve Ballmer is very dissatisfied with the criticism of his team by various sports media. He has received four emails this week.

If he really can't produce any results this season, then his job as a general manager is basically over.

"Andrew, you must pay attention to the angle of the screen. I have reminded you many times, but you still make the same mistake! Whether it is on the top line, in the blocking area, or on the bottom line, you can't just stand there casually!"

Taking advantage of the break, Chris Paul started chatting in a high-pressure style again. First, he sprayed Andrew Jordan, and then reminded Turiaf. Griffin on the side was gloating that today is still a recovery training.

.

"Hey! I've paid attention. Don't treat me like a child. I'm still adapting to this new tactic. I just need a little time!"

After being nagged for more than half a month, Andrew Jordan couldn't bear it anymore and immediately complained to Paul, which immediately angered CP3.

"Need time? The new season starts in one month. You need to spend more time on training. Don't forget that we were eliminated in the first round last season. Listen to what those bullshit media said about us.

of!"

Chris Paul immediately threw the ball and walked directly in front of Andrew Jordan to deal with it. Seeing that Jordan seemed to want to retaliate, Li Ze immediately went over and pulled Chris Paul away:

"Okay, Chris, we still have time, don't worry about the record. Andrew, remember to communicate with the assistant coach more. I hope to see your free throw percentage exceed 60% in the new season. Blake, the same goes for you!

"

"I don't want to see my opponent suddenly resorting to foul tactics at the end of the game. Remember to ask Allen for advice on how to shoot free throws. Maybe he will teach you some shooting tips."
