Chapter 240 The face of the old teacher

Fanshie has always maintained a good relationship with Cuban. Mark Cuban is a man of temperament. He invests a lot in basketball, and as a white owner, he clearly likes non-black stars, although he has never

expressed orally.

With his love for basketball, he stood firmly next to Fan Xi at many moments, except of course when Fan Xi was fighting with the Mavericks. When Jeanie Buss wanted to trade Fan Xi, he offered the most impressive bargaining chip.

Jenny Buss was moved. If Fan Xi had not had to stay in Los Angeles, people would probably have seen news about Fan Xi and Nowitzki teaming up.

Today, they still talked a lot about basketball.

Including the stuff that Stephen Nash said, so that's why Mark Cuban can laugh at times like this.



The happiness off the court does not last on the court. We are all professional players and will do our best to win.

Although a reporter from Dallas asked Fanci before the game: Why not find a girlfriend in Texas? You can feel the real Wild West.

This question made Fan Xi scratch his head, and he felt a little jumpy.

But the Mavericks on the court seemed to be more jumping. A group of old people were more afraid than monkeys with their tails on fire. At the beginning of the game, Shawn Marion played a game of flying to the moon in front of his old teammate Nash... He also looked like a monkey.

A light-hearted dunk caused the house to burst into cheers.

The Clippers played a bit "restrained" here. The loss to the Spurs made the Clippers reflect internally. They still need to play some positional tactics and study this thing in depth.

It's just that when playing position, the team will consciously give the ball to Griffin. Griffin scored 41 points in Houston and 31 points and 12 rebounds in San Antonio.

He now enjoys the feeling of being a finisher, with Fancy and Nash feeding him the ball but taking away his right to hold the ball.

After that incident, he was very cooperative about it, and his isolation syndrome with the ball disappeared instantly. He no longer rushed with the ball by himself, nor did he play with his lame behind-the-crotch dribbling skills, let alone

Then he uses his short hands to perform a no-pass-look stunt.

I have to say that Griffin is a good knife. His talent is not ordinary. He can run and jump. As long as he appears in position and throws the basketball into the sky, he can jump up and smash the basketball into the basket.

, this kind of explosive power and jumping ability are definitely the best in the league, and even the best in history.

Moreover, he has some jump shooting ability and post-up ability.

If he is willing to become an offensive terminator, just like Shawn Kemp Stoudemire, he has a chance to activate the 'Vanheet Clause'.

Because his style of play is very beautiful and he attracts fans. If Fanshie helps him canvass for votes, at least in the Western Conference, he can occupy the All-Star starting position. As long as he becomes the All-Star starter for two consecutive seasons during his rookie contract.

As an All-Star starter, he can activate the Fanshie clause and receive the league's supermax salary in his second contract.

Griffin and his team have now sobered up, and they realize how important Fancy is to them.

Now Griffin's relationship with Fan Xi cannot be described as filial, but can only be described as submissive.

After all, if you follow Fan Xi, you can get big statistics, hit the top five goals, and your support rate will increase.

But in this game against the Mavericks, Griffin stalled.

He was restricted by Nowitzki, who used his signature stunt to shoot him mercilessly near the free throw line. He was powerless, and his defense was always a colander... This is also the reason why Jordan and him have a normal relationship, who

He would like a teammate who needs to wipe his butt every day.

On the offensive end today, Griffin's output was also abnormal. Haywood had a strong presence in the paint, and Shawn Marion was everywhere. He was a hacker.

Therefore, in the end, the Clippers used the defensive combination of Kwame Brown and DeAndre Jordan.

These two muscular men locked up the Dallas penalty area at the last moment and won favorable opportunities for the outside.

In the end, Nash won the three-pointer with Kidd.

Kidd missed the key shot.

And Nash directly completed the buzzer beater.

109:106.

The Clippers won this difficult victory. This game gave the coaching staff and front office a very, very firm impression: Griffin is not suitable for the Clippers.

Although Griffin has performed very well in the previous two games, is a super power forward who is strong in offense and weak in defense really what the Clippers need?

no!



After the trip to Texas, the Clippers went to Memphis and had a fierce battle with the Memphis Grizzlies. The Clippers lost the game. The Grizzlies were at a very high level. After a year of running-in, their black and white bears

Going from strength to strength, the notorious Zach Randolph is redeemed here, not only earning the best performance of his career, but gaining the respect of the community.

The expression on his face became more and more calm.

He and Marc Gasol have held up Memphis and brought exciting performances to this small ball market. Now, it may be the most glorious moment in Memphis basketball history.

Time continued to move forward. The Clippers returned to their home court and defeated the Kings and Warriors respectively. Then they went to the Colorado Plateau to fight the Nuggets and lost by 1 point. In Salt Lake City, the Clippers slaughtered their opponents again;

throughout the month of October.

The three biggest massacres in the league were all caused by the Clippers. The Clippers massacred the Lakers by 71 points, the Rockets by 56 points, and the Utah Jazz by 52 points.

The Clippers have earned themselves a reputation as a 'young and old' franchise.

Many bad teams in the league trembled when they encountered the Clippers, and even some bad teams inspired some courage: They must not let the Clippers be so humiliated. The Clippers have no morals at all.

In fact, the Clippers acted morally. In addition to not replacing their main players when they played the Lakers, they also replaced their main players when they played against the Rockets and Jazz.

But there is no distinction between the Clippers' main players and substitutes.

How to fix this?

There is no team in the league that is more "weird" than the Clippers. In the entire camp, except for Fanshie who is the confirmed starter, any of the other 10 players can start.

Where does this make sense?

The Clippers' strength ranking has also continued to rise as their combat power has improved.

Fanci won the Player of the Month in October because his single-month data was 25.5 points, 12.6 assists and 7.2 rebounds, which is a historical level. If Fanci can maintain this data until the end of the season, then he will become a history player in the league.

The only point guard with such statistics.

After Fanci came to the Clippers, he completely dominated the game. Although his ball-handling offense is still criticized, in the regular season level, his breakthrough and off-ball movement have ensured that his scoring average ranks among the top ten in the league.

.

In fact, the Clippers have another player who ranks in the top ten in the league in scoring per game. Blake Griffin, who currently averages 27.2 points per game, ranks fourth in the league.

After entering November, the weather became obviously colder. In Minnesota, the Clippers' logistics department even prepared down jackets for the players. Minnesota has been in a bad state of reconstruction after Kevin Garnett left: this kind of small ball market The difficulty of rebuilding a weak team is beyond imagination.

Unless a super chosen person is selected, he is destined to be a supporting role in the alliance.

Throughout the history of the league, only a handful of times have been won by weak teams in small ball markets.

This is probably a kind of fateful sadness.

The current leader of the Timberwolves is Kevin Love, a good power forward who is known for his shooting and rebounding. He can open up space and is also a strong backcourt rebound protector. But...his frontcourt His rebounding ability is weak, and his athletic ability and defensive level are not high.

Leaving Minnesota, the Clippers continued sailing east.

The Clippers' games continue the rhythm of October. When playing against ordinary strong teams, they can always enter the decisive stage. The victory or defeat is on the line. When playing against mid-level teams, it is easy to control. When playing against weak teams, almost always 20 points. The above massacre.

Just like the Timberwolves and Bucks, they successfully received the quota for the November slaughter and lost the game by 25 points and 35 points respectively.

This happened after Mike Brown reminded everyone to pay attention to the impact of the game during halftime.

If nothing had been done, the point difference between the two games would have been 40 points.

However, this also aroused the fans' alternative enthusiasm.

According to the past rules of the league, the ratings for games between strong teams and weak teams are not high, and the attention is also very low. But now, a group of fans go to the game stadium to watch the slaughter, or stay in front of the TV. It brought an unexpected surprise to the alliance.

Therefore, the Clippers have become the most alternative team in the league.

Any of their games has high ratings.

Of course, many commentators now expect the Clippers to compete with super strong teams, such as the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Lakers, and the Oklahoma City Thunder, which have risen rapidly this season.

At the same time, the clipper's voyage has reached the easternmost point, and what everyone expects to happen is about to happen.

Starting in mid-November, the Clippers' second Devils road trip arrives.

The first stop was the New York Knicks.

Phil Jackson is now in charge of the New York Knicks. Although he does not hold the title of head coach, he sits on the bench. He has the privilege of directing all home games.

Because he recently had his balls cut off, his condition is not very good.

It's hard to believe why Phil Jackson still suffers from testicular cancer at his age. Could it be that Jenny Buss is poisonous?

In any case, they have now broken up and are happily separated.

When Phil Jackson and Fan Xi met again, the two masters and apprentices hugged each other tightly.

Fan Xi and Zen Master have revolutionary feelings. Although Zen Master likes to show off, he really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He can be said to be a true dote on Fan Xi.

Over the years, Jackson has never reused any rookie or point guard.

But Fan Xi had both, but Phil Jackson still treated him as his own son, giving him the right to make strategic moves and shots.

"The stupidest thing Jeanie Buss did in her life was to break up with me, and the stupidest thing was to trade you to the Clippers. Both of these moves broke the foundation of the Lakers."

Phil Jackson said to Fanci: "There are now two suns in Los Angeles. After a while, after Kobe retires, I feel that with your ability and determination, you will definitely beat the Lakers into the dust, and their wealthy coat will be wiped out."

You tear it apart completely, revealing the ruined and decayed body inside."

Phil Jackson is a smart man who sees the long term.

He also knows Fan Xi very well.

Fan Xi just smiled.

Phil Jackson then gave Fanci another piece of advice: "I suggest you have a frank talk with Sterling. You have to fight for yourself a share."

"Players and coaches are just commodities, just running water. Only by getting shares and getting real benefits can you sit at the poker table and become the master."

"Now that the Clippers' market value has skyrocketed, you must make them sign an agreement to transfer part of their shares to you at the current price after you retire, otherwise you will regret it. When the Clippers become a new giant, they are very likely to

I don’t take your greatest hero seriously anymore. Capital is ruthless.”

"Don't challenge the power of money."

Phil Jackson had nothing but heartfelt words for Fanci.

Fan Xi nodded seriously and took it to his heart.

Being sold off by Jenny Buss was a thorn in Fan Xi's heart. He no longer wanted to be treated as a commodity.

And what Phil Jackson said makes sense.

Just like Phil Jackson, he won two dynasties for the Lakers. It's understandable that he wants a little share.

But in exchange, he was kicked out.

He will always be a part-time worker.

Now Fanci can make the Clippers' market value grow rapidly, and turn the Clippers from a bad brand into a well-known trademark. The team respects him very much and respects him. But what happens after he retires? Or maybe his ability cannot continue to make the team

What about going further?

Fan Xi thought a lot before the game started.

He decided to take action.



Although Fanci and Phil Jackson had a good chat with Phil Jackson before the game started, during the game, Fanci made a fatal move.

Jackson forcibly created the triangle offense in New York. He let Carmelo Anthony, Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler play the triangle offense, which is equivalent to cutting off the feet to fit the shoes.

None of them felt comfortable, and none of them played well.

Their lineup is obviously one of the best in the Eastern Conference. Predictions before the start of the season also predicted that they would be third in the Eastern Conference and have a certain hope of winning the championship.

But now... they are only ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference.

The Clippers have become the league's benchmark for testing strong and weak teams. As soon as the two sides play against each other, within one quarter of the game, the quality of the New York Knicks will be clear.

A middling team, not even an ordinary strong team.

Because in the first quarter, the Knicks fell behind by 12 points.

At this time, the Zen master couldn't sit still. He stood up during the pause. When Fan Xi passed by him, he grabbed Fan Xi and said to Fan Xi: "We are not the Los Angeles Lakers. We are not like you."

There is no hatred or resentment."

Fan Xi laughed.

He knew how to fight.

The face of my old mentor must be given no matter what.
