Chapter 347 Terrifying experience bonus chapter(1/4)
Chapter 347 The terrifying experience bonus (10,000-word chapter)
It is not easy for role players to get a contract with the Clippers.
On the bench, Jamal Crawford has unlimited firepower after coming on. Although Hawes basically misses important games in the playoffs, he can still play 20 minutes in the regular season.
Coupled with the fact that PJ Tucker, who has been working very hard in training, and Barnes and Dudley, who have seamlessly switched from starting to substitute, the competition for the Clippers' 12-man activated roster is actually extremely fierce.
Although a team can report 15 players, the last three players are basically the atmosphere group in the atmosphere group, and their playing time is basically zero.
Under this circumstance, in the preseason games in October, the players who wanted to get contracts with the Clippers played extremely hard.
Nikola Jokic did not participate in the summer league, but he showed outstanding performance in several preseason games, rebounding, pick-and-roll, passing down, and simply controlling the ball at the free throw line.
Although he seems a little jerky at times, as long as you are not blind, you can see that this big man is quite skilled.
Although he was often beaten by the muscular stick inside, considering his 19-year-old age, head coach De Nagro finally nodded with satisfaction.
A second-round pick like Jordan can make a name for himself with the Clippers. If Jokic is a rotation player, there is still hope!
What also surprises the coaching staff is that Joe Ingles is not just dawdling. Although this Australian striker has average athletic ability, he dares to fight.
In this game, Matt Barnes got the chance to start, so Dudley on the bench was also holding a sigh of relief.
The Warriors' game also attracted much attention. Steve Kerr made bold changes after coming to the Warriors, and Iguodala was persuaded to join the bench.
Lakers vs. Clippers, Mavericks vs. Spurs, Magic vs. Pelicans.
Li Ze looked at the 19-year-old rookie and couldn't help laughing. Jokic's two brothers would be present at every game, for fear that his little brother would be bullied.
Being intercepted and blocked, Lakers fans felt a little painful when they saw Kobe trying to hit the ball with iron.
After taking the phone, Li Ze said simply with a smile:
“Is the NBA game so easy? It feels like the league in Serbia is even more difficult!”
Li Ze's powerful tomahawk dunk once again ignited the atmosphere of Staples Arena.
Green, who is 2.01 meters tall, plays the No. 4 position. Such employment seems a bit crazy, but after one game, the doubts are much smaller.
Hearing Li Ze's words, Jokic felt a little regretful. He really felt that he could play against such a novice opponent!
In the TNT commentary box, Reggie Miller shook his head helplessly, looked at the technical statistics in his hand, and said with emotion:
"This season, maybe the Thunder will be ruined by injuries!"
In the past, the spotlight in Los Angeles was always on him, but witnessing the Clippers' award ceremony tonight made Kobe realize that he may have really passed up.
Of course, it's not just Kobe Bryant who is possessed by lemon essence. Paul and Griffin are also feeling sour. Although they both won championships, Li Ze is the real core of the Clippers.
After returning to defense, he noticed that Kobe's face looked ugly. Li Ze couldn't help but joked softly:
Kobe Bryant gave Jeremy Lin a death stare with a straight face, and it was 13:0.
After completing the dunk, Li Ze didn't celebrate too much. It's really not challenging to play against such a weak team.
After hearing what Li Ze said, everyone in the Clippers didn't pay much attention. With 60+ wins, everyone didn't believe that anyone else could be the opponent of the Clippers.
Since there were back-to-back games tomorrow, Li Ze did not pay attention to the trends on social media and fell asleep early after returning home.
The Clippers did not play complex tactics, but simple defensive counterattacks. Facing the Lakers, who had no absolute strong point, they started a wave of pressing defense, which directly caused the opponent's outside perimeter to collapse.
Efficient abuse of food has become Li Ze's label. Although it is a bit disrespectful to Kobe to say this, the fact is that the two are no longer players of the same level. The Black Mamba is completely outdated.
The huge point difference prevented Li Ze from playing in the second half. After playing the entire third quarter in the second half, he fished for half of the fourth quarter, and finally ended the first game of the new season with satisfaction.
At the beginning of the regular season, several people made some simple predictions. The odds were the same as those offered by the betting companies. The Clippers had the first odds, followed by the Cavaliers, followed by the Spurs and Rockets.
The Lakers fans who bought tickets tonight to watch Kobe Bryant's first performance after returning from injury are completely autistic.
But in fact, Jokic is extremely confident and firmly believes that as long as his physical fitness is up to standard, he can be a starter. In his eyes, Jordan is just a forward with excellent jumping.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Thunder's offense showed no improvement, and Turtle failed to return to the court. This live broadcast in the United States ultimately disappointed the fans.
Li Ze was substituted with 3 minutes and 12 seconds left in the first quarter, so he took the lead in the rotation and led the substitutes.
The recovery period is 6 to 8 weeks, and Durant basically said goodbye to the 2014 game.
"The schedule in November is not bad. Several back-to-back games are relatively easy. We can improve our results this month and it will be easier from now on."
Seeing the sports media cheering and surrounding Li Ze, Kobe immediately twitched the corner of his mouth, then turned around and quickened his pace, not intending to say hello to Li Ze.
Because he was going to receive the ring tonight, in order to show his solemnity, Li Ze was also dressed in a black formal suit, and his hairstyle was carefully designed. His messy hedgehog hair looked particularly energetic.
"I know what everyone is looking forward to. In June next year, we will witness the raising of the third championship flag at Staples Center!"
Coach Brooks on the sidelines could only watch helplessly as the players on the court were working hard.
After Jokic came on the court, there were 4 minutes and 36 seconds left in the game. At this time, the players at the end of the Clippers bench also got the opportunity to play.
And Jokic, who came on the court for more than 4 minutes, made 2 of 2, scored 4 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist. This performance did not attract too much attention. After all, who would pay attention to a team's end players.
After the game, America's football commentators focused not on the outcome of the game, but on Kobe's state.
"Together we will witness the dynasty that belongs to the Clippers!"
Coupled with the side door shape, it immediately compares to the Lamborghini that Kobe Bryant bought for many years.
The silky movement of falling to the ground made Kobe twitch the corners of his mouth, and then sent out a death stare again, only to find that everyone on the Lakers ignored him. The point difference was too big and everyone had given up.
The body language of the Lakers players is that we have given up, let’s increase the points!
In this case, the Clippers' defensive intensity dropped again, and fans found that Li Ze broke through Kobe's defense extremely easily, basically in one step.
From time to time, Li Ze made a simple breakthrough and scored. After Tucker threw two consecutive three-pointers from the left and right corners, head coach Byron Scott also quietly sat back on the bench.
"This is definitely a stupid change. I thought that after trying to implement it last season, this senseless rule would be completely rejected this season, but now it seems that the league intends to continue to weaken the big players."
Although there were 5 mistakes, overall the flaws were not concealed.
The Lakers' rotation is also undergoing a major overhaul, with Ronnie Price, Wayne Ellington, Kobe Bryant, Ed Davis, and Robert Sacre.
"Destroy!"
In contrast, the Heat's attention has plummeted, with only 16 national broadcasts this season. This has aroused strong dissatisfaction among Heat fans. They still have two All-Stars!
The cheers of the Los Angeles fans made Kobe look ugly as he stood next to the away team's bench.
No one can withstand time and injuries. Kobe has completely expired.
The Turtles made 11 of 26 shots and 15 of 16 free throws, scoring 38 points. However, the Thunder made 2 of 16 from the outside, one of which was made by the Turtles themselves. This performance really shocked many fans.
Then Li Ze chatted with Ibaka and Collison for a long time, and finally the two parties said goodbye and left.
On October 29, there were many games that day. The Thunder without Durant lost directly, 89:106, and were suppressed by the Trail Blazers.
At this time, the Black Mamba stared at Li Ze, lowered his center of gravity, lifted his shorts, and then looked at the movements of the Clippers players behind him.
"The Clippers will always remain competitive, and we will create a new dynasty this season! Come on, boys, this ring witnesses our glory last season, WOW!"
After Li Ze learned that Ingalls got the contract, he nodded secretly. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared!
Due to Durant's injury in mid-October, Li Ze flew to New York in the second half of the preseason.
"Oh! Confident rookie!"
American football commentators praised Cole's employment after the game, and everyone seemed to have forgotten their previous doubts.
On the night of the 30th, the Clippers faced the Thunder at home.
Steve Ballmer waved his ringed right hand again.
"What a beautiful assist just now!"
He found that Li Ze's defense was too tight. After struggling to break through to the right block, he started to hit with his back. After three blows, Kobe found that he was getting further and further away from the paint area.
Kobe's movements were still very graceful, but before the ball could be released, Li Ze, who had successfully predicted it, took it away.
5 of 18, including 1 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 8 free throws, 17 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 turnovers. For the same number of shots, Kobe only scored half of Li Ze's points.
"The Lakers added Carlos Boozer in the off-season, but I think this is not a good choice. The current inside frame protection height is insufficient."
"This is an amazing achievement, and this year we have the opportunity to witness the birth of a dynasty!"
In anger, he turned over and shot a fadeaway jumper directly toward the baseline!
Durant has always squandered his physical talents wantonly. The 2.10-meter big man makes exaggerated changes of direction, which will naturally put some pressure on his feet. In addition, the shape of his feet is also different from ordinary people, and injuries are common.
It's inevitable.
90:119, without Turtle and Durant, the Thunder once again faced a big defeat.
Although he felt that the Lakers were too bad, Jokic still felt a little incredible when he saw Li Zeshua's goal.
After midnight, I routinely came to the achievement room of the dream training space. When I saw the purple badge floating in front of me, I immediately touched it:
Achievement Badge [Remote Fixed-Point Shooter]: (can be fused)
The fans in Los Angeles seem to like seeing this kind of scene, and they cheer loudly every time they see the two playing against each other.
By the end of the first quarter, head coach Byron Scott knew he had given a full account tonight.
The forwards are Ibaka and Perry Jones, and the center is Steven Adams.
Kobe was so angry that he was not in the mood to deal with Li Ze's teasing. This time the Lakers' offense once again asked for the ball early on from the right wing outside the three-point line.
To be continued...
