Bishop of the Devil

When he heard that there was no name in the starting lineup for the new season, Thomaston Jr. was scared.

Being kicked out of the starting list, this represents something self-evident.

Either it means that you have fallen out of favor with the head coach, or it means that the team does not need it anymore, at least does not need so much time to play.

Thomas was puzzled. Where did he go wrong? Obviously his performance last season was quite outstanding. As a rookie with a 60th pick, he averaged 12.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 1.3 steals. data……

Such a data, no one can pick out the fault.

But even so, such an outstanding performance still failed to stabilize himself in the starting position...

Richard glanced at Thomas's expression and sighed in his heart, feeling a little sorry for Thomas.

Last season, according to the lineup at hand, Richard was prepared to use Stevens' offensive system. Now he still intends to do so, but because of the chasing of Green's joining, considering the interests of the team, Thomas is sure It can't be put into the starting lineup.

In this situation, Richard was thinking about whether to give Thomas a deal.

Of course, if you stay in the team, it's not impossible. If you stay in the team, Thomas Jr. can lead the bench to open the situation.

Thinking about it, Richard still didn't want to sell Thomas, and decided to wait until after this season.

Richard did not expect much from the team last season, and this season it will not work.

This is the third year he has taken over the Clippers.

Although the Clippers lineup is still far from winning the championship, Richard must lead the team as far as possible in the playoffs.

A full month of training in September, the effect is still quite good, mainly because the starting players are quite familiar with the tactical system, plus Leonard, Thompson after a season of tempering, the strength has increased.

Generally speaking, the shooting rate of players in the rookie season will be more embarrassing. For example, Kemba Walker who was previously sold by the Warriors, his performance in the rookie season is quite embarrassing. However, since the second season, the shooting rate has been visible to the naked eye. Promotion.

This is true for many players, such as Durant, and his shooting percentage in the rookie season is relatively low...

Thompson is definitely a different kind, as soon as he came up, he hit the league's top shooting percentage level. Last season, he averaged 15.1 points per game, 44.1% per game and 41.7% three-point shooting.

At this level of hit rate, many professional shooters may not be able to play throughout their careers.

With such a high shooting percentage, the reason why he scores only 15 points is actually related to Thompson’s lack of experience.

As a newcomer, the ability to find a mobile phone meeting is definitely not as good as that of a veteran. After this season's tempering, Thompson must have made great progress in this regard.

Richard is still very optimistic about Thompson, the next season, sure Thompson will usher in a wave of outbreaks.

Under normal circumstances, in the previous seasons when Thompson joined the Warriors, the shooting rate was quite abnormal...

This career career three-point percentage has never been below 40% in any season!

In the first year of joining the Warriors, he averaged 12.5 points per game, and in the second year, he increased to 16.6 points...

Now that Thompson is in the Clippers, it is estimated that the improvement will not be too small. Thompson is likely to score more than 20 points per game in the new season.

...

On October 3, the preseason started.

Preseason games like this do not see anything. After six preseason games, the Clippers played 3 wins and 3 losses, and Richard did not care much.

What really matters is the schedule for the next regular season.

The Clippers should be a mule and a horse this season.

...

Stern has completely retired. After Xiao Hua took over the position of Stern, Richard gave Richard a gift as soon as he took the stage.

The official opener prepared by the league is the Clippers at home to meet the challenge of the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers!

The Lakers are definitely the hottest team in the league today. They won the championship last season, and this season introduced Howard and Nash. Almost all the fans in the league stared at them closely, looking forward to this game. Start playing.

In this way, the ticket sales of the Clippers at home can be imagined.

This is definitely a gift from Richard Hua to Richard. I really want to talk about it. In fact, this game is more suitable for the Lakers to play with the Spurs.

But if Xiao Hua arranged this way, no one would pick the fault. After all, the Lakers and the Clippers played in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. Richard fans also have a lot. They also want to see Richard take over the Clippers. In the third season, what the Clippers are now.

Fans are extremely familiar with the resume of Richard's coaching career.

Coached the Trail Blazers and won the championship in the third season.

Coaching the Pistons, he won the second season and won two championships.

Coached the Pirates, and won the championship in the third season, with four championships.

On the whole, the team under Richard's leadership will begin to show its ability to win the championship in the third season. Presumably, the Clippers will not be an exception.

...

Before the game started, both teams warmed up.

Kobe's mood is quite good, the team recruited him two big players, which gives Kobe sufficient confidence to defend.

"Boy, you have to work hard tonight. If you don't work hard, it is estimated that you will enter the garbage time in less than three quarters." Bryant walked past Leonard and smiled, patting Leonard's shoulder.

Leonard giggled...

Throughout the offseason, Leonard lived in Richard's house and went to training every day.

Richard also specifically contacted Kobe and asked Kobe to bring Leonard together at four in the morning...

As a result, according to Leonard, Kobe was a liar. He arrived at the training ground at 3:50 and waited until six to see Kobe's shadow.

After this offseason tempering, Leonard looked strong for a lap, coupled with his long-armed hands, looks more defensive on the defensive end.

Seeing Kobe teasing Leonard, Richard couldn't help but smile to Kobe and said, "So confident? If you lose in a while, it's ugly."

"Lose? Impossible, coach, I really can't think of what your Clippers can win our Big Five!" Bryant laughed broadly.

Richard smiled and waved his hands with a wry smile. Now that Kobe is in a good mood, he will not stimulate him. It is estimated that he will cry when he finishes the previous two months.

...

"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game.

The two sides began to appear, Kobe Bryant saw Sun Yue on the side of the Clippers, and couldn't help but say hello to Sun Yue.

He and Sun Yue have a good relationship. The two played against each other in the international arena. Now they are playing in the same city. Coupled with Richard's relationship, the two will also come together from time to time.

Nash saw the Clippers put Sun Yue in the first position, and his face hurt.

If Thomas was the master, he was not too worried, but now Sun Yue is hard to deal with.

In terms of height, Sun Yue is 15 centimeters taller than Nash. In terms of speed and strength, the 38-year-old Nash completely fell into the disadvantage...

He feels that even with the help of his teammate's pick-and-roll, it is difficult to find a comfortable mobile phone meeting. It is not impossible for a single player who is in front of him to be blocked by the No. 4 height.

The moment when Nash's career was the most brilliant was actually not in the sun, but in the two years he played under Richard.

In those two years, Nash got the only two championship rings in his career.

...

The referee blew the whistle and the center players of both sides jumped the ball. Howard's current physical quality is still the top of the center. Howford failed to jump and let the Lakers get the first offensive round.

Nash's slow ball control is advancing toward the frontcourt. He is so old that he can't get up fast. If he really wants to get up to play, then he can't stand it after 25 minutes.

Sun Yue opened his arms and kept a long distance in front of Nash.

At such a distance, if Nash takes a shot, he can take off at any time to interfere, or even block.

And if Nash used the help of teammates to pick and roll, the distance of this step is enough to allow Sun Yue to bypass the pick and roll.

After the Nash ball reached the frontcourt, Gasol pulled out to a high position, helping Nash to make a pick-and-roll.

But without waiting for Nash's shot, Sun Yue had already bypassed Gasol and had not lost his position at all.

Richard nodded with satisfaction on the sidelines, not to mention that in the past few years, Sun Yue has really improved a lot at least on the defensive end.

With plenty of playing time for the Clippers, as well as participating in various large international seasons, Sun Yue has accumulated quite a lot of defensive experience, and it is very smart to defend the old Nash.

Nash is naturally impossible to shoot, how to shoot in this case?

The bounce itself is not very good~www.readwn.com~ is also 38 years old and is facing a 206 cm tall player who is at its peak. Isn't that a block cap data?

In a straight pass, Nash passed the ball to Artest without the ball.

Right now Artest is also starting to play without the ball.

After receiving the ball, Klay Thompson, who played against him, immediately withstood Artest without giving him space to shoot.

Under normal circumstances, Artest is actually not so irritable, so that he will directly hit his head with his elbow because of such a defense...

(Harden: MMP? Are you sure?)

Seeing that he had no room to shoot, Artest was ready to pass the ball to Kobe.

But what he did not expect was that his rough pass this time was directly cut off by a long arm.

After Leonard cut the ball, a long pass was immediately passed to Sun Yue, who immediately turned around and started a big counterattack.

Leonard and Thompson followed, running towards the frontcourt.

Kobe and Artest are also desperately returning to the defense. As for Howard, Gasol and Nash, their ability to quickly counterattack is almost negligible.

The frontcourt directly formed a 3 2 2 situation, Sun Yue did not dare to support, the ball into the three-point line in the frontcourt, immediately scored to Leonard.

Leonard watched as Kobe and Artest rushed towards themselves. Without a word, he scored a goal for Thompson who was standing outside the three-point line.

"Uh!" Thompson hit the knife and hit a three-pointer.

...

"Awesome! It's awesome! The Clippers Sanshou's defensive counterattack ability is absolutely amazing!" Buckley couldn't help but praise when he saw this offensive and defensive round.
