?? After all, it was just an ordinary difficult task, and Li Liang made a few three-pointers in the fourth quarter, and the Nuggets established a lead.

In fact, the Nuggets won this game in history, beating the Lakers by one point 140-139.

The whole team exploded, and they fought against the Lakers and won the opponent at home.

With Li Liang's firepower in this game, it is simply unreasonable not to win.

After winning this game, Li Liang's [basic passing] was successfully improved to 50 points, and his short passing ability was also improved.

Li Liang instantly felt that it seemed that the passing task was not as difficult as he thought before!

It's August now, and if you do some tasks seriously, maybe you will be able to raise it to more than 80 points soon?

Li Liang thought very well, but the system quickly taught him to be a man.

After completing the mission again and increasing the [Basic Pass] to 60 points, the mission starts to stop working.

He faces a mission called "Price's Peak", which requires him to replace Cavaliers point guard Mark Price to lead the Cavaliers to victory and diash out 20 assists.

20 assists!

That's not a small amount!

Mark Price, one of the few famous players in the Cavaliers before LeBron James, has only been in his entire career for 20 assists in a single game.

It's really a bit difficult for Li Liang to suddenly reach the pinnacle of a star player's career.

There are only a handful of people in NBA history who can give 20 assists in a single game.

What's more, assists are something that you can't control in many cases, and you really can't help it if your teammates don't give you the effort.

Li Liang tried many times, but he was never able to achieve the mission goal.

He flipped through the footage of the Cavaliers game and looked at Price's game highlights.

He found that the Cavaliers in 1990, as well as Price at that time, were very close to his own way of playing in terms of style and style.

In 1990, the Cavaliers began to experiment with the three-point shot as a new weapon.

They ranked first in the league in three-point shooting and percentage per game this season, and made the playoffs that season.

can play similarly, he will shoot three points, but Li Liang will not pass.

Because Li Liang found that he couldn't pass three points and assists!

Li Liang's assists in the regular season and playoffs last season mainly came from the top of the arc, some through balls, ground passes, and some short passes when switching between offense and defense.

And if you find an open spot for a three-point or mid-range shot, pass the ball over and let your teammates catch it, sorry, no.

Because Li Liang himself is the one who catches and shoots, not the one who passes the ball.

Catching the ball and passing, that's a big difference.

Li Liang did not have that kind of vision and tactical map on the field at all.

As a result, he has no way to replace Price to sort out the Cavaliers' offense, let alone hand out 20 assists.

Li Liang's [basic pass] was stuck on 60 points.

But Li Liang's mentality is okay, there is no explosion, he knows that he is not in a hurry for the time being.

The task of [Basic Passing] is put aside for a while, and the detailed skills of [Long Pass], [Short Pass], [Hanging Pass], and [Ground Pass] are honed.

I also opened the [Passing Awareness] course and learned the basics of basketball tactics from Coach Ferg Allen, the grandfather of the NCAA.

Ferg Allen was the first generation of coaches in American basketball, coaching the University of Kansas since 1905 and was the ancestor of many basketball coaches.

Including Coach Rupp in Kentucky, Pope Dean Smith in North Carolina and many more.

Although Li Liang studied with Coach Allen because of the age, it felt like a college student running to learn 1+1 for primary school students, but this kind of learning from scratch still gave Li Liang an understanding of basketball tactics, coaching, and commanding.

If you want to be a really good offensive playmaker, it's not enough to just farm assists.

It is necessary to have a deeper understanding of basketball in order to find a way to break the opponent's goal in this complex game.

In the past, Li Liang's method was simple and rude, Lao Tzu's three-point shot beckoned to you, you couldn't prevent it at all, and any tactics didn't work.

But Li Liang can't play like this in every game, so he needs to learn more.

Time also passed quickly, August passed, and September also passed.

The lively and casual summer is fleeting, and the northern hemisphere has entered autumn, which also heralds the new NBA season is coming.

Li Liang has been obsessed with the world of basketball tactics for more than two months.

In the course assignment of [Passing Awareness], he was exposed to not only the patriarch Ferg Allen, but also the inventor of Princeton tactics, Pete Carell, the inventor of the triangle offense, Teks Winter, the head coach of 800 miles, the four-time coach of the year Eddie Sutton, and the previous contacts with John Wooden, Bob Knight, Don Huggins, etc.

Following these coaches, Li Liang has a deeper understanding of the history of the development of basketball tactics, how to start from scratch, and constantly change with the development of players' abilities and changes in rules.

And in the midst of this constant change, there are some essential things in basketball that have never changed, which is what Li Liang really needs to understand.

Li Liang also took time to discuss these issues with Calipari.

He also discovered that all the coaches in the system who helped him were NCAA college coaches, not any NBA coaches.

It fully shows that NBA coaches don't actually talk about any tactics, and if they want to study basketball tactics, they should go to college.

In addition, Li Liang also participated in the jersey unveiling ceremony held by the Clippers.

He was given a brand new No. 28 jersey and officially launched it in September, where he hit the top three in sales as soon as it was launched.

Of course, Li Liang's pirated Clippers jersey has been circulating in China as early as two months ago and appeared on the wild court.

As time passed, the crazy championship season in June was gradually forgotten by the fans.

Although in the days to come, some people will take it out from time to time to reminisce, but for now, people are undoubtedly paying more attention to the new season.

No matter how spectacular and exciting the past season was, he is behind the scenes, and the appeal cannot be compared to the new season that has yet to come to fruition.

It's like a video of a spectacular playoff game, not as engaging as a regular regular season game that hasn't started.

By the time the time came, the teams were ready for the new season.

The summer league has long ended, and people like Li Liang no longer need to participate in the summer league to brush up on their experience, even if he is only in the second year.

The Clippers made a final selection and confirmation of personnel through the summer league, and then contacted a number of free agents who had not yet made their home to finalize the team's roster.

The Clippers once reached out to Gilbert Arenas in the hope that he could come to the Clippers and give it a try.

However, Arenas refused, saying that he wanted to stay in China to play in the CBA and was unwilling to return to the United States.

After the injury and gun-toting incident, Arenas was not as good as before, going from the Magic to the Grizzlies, and eventually left the NBA for the other side of the ocean.

And the Clippers have always liked to scratch this kind of balloon star lottery.

Odom and Hill didn't succeed last season, and this season the Clippers poached Lakers veteran Antoine Jamison.

Jamison had a stunning career in the Finals last season, winning a championship ring.

He could have opted to retire, but because he could still play, he decided to fight for another season.

It just so happened that Li Liang came to the Clippers, and Jamison had a vicious eye, hugged Li Liang's thighs tightly, and joined the Clippers.

The Clippers also tried out Stephen Jackson, who was cut by the Spurs midway through last season, but ultimately cut Jackson.

It's September 29th, and it's about to enter October, and the activities of NBA teams are finally on the agenda.

The Clippers will hold a media day at the team's practice hall on Sept. 30 to promote the new season for the whole team.

After the promotion, the team plans to travel to the University of San Diego to borrow the basketball arena there to start training for the new season and prepare for the preseason.

Li Liang received the relevant news on September 15.

On September 30th, I woke up early in the morning and headed to the Clippers' training gym on Cicentinella Street.

And Zhu Shu helped Li Liang make breakfast, then took the car keys, and said that he would drive Li Liang over.

"Uh, I'll just drive by myself, aren't you okay to rest at home?" Li Liang felt strange, he used to go to the Lakers to train, but Zhu Shu never sent himself.

Zhu Shu said: "It's okay, it's been a summer, today is the first day, I'll drive you." ”

Li Liang saw that Zhu Shu insisted, so he nodded and agreed.

The two drove to the Clippers' training gym.

Unlike the basement where the Lakers used the Toyota Sports Center, the Clippers' training center was newly built in 2008 as a stand-alone basketball practice center.

It resembles a white speedboat, symbolizing the name of the clippers.

This is the first time Li Liang has come to their training center since joining the Clippers, and a large group of media is waiting for him at the door.

Zhu Shu parked the car and followed Li Liang into the training center.

Li Liang felt that Zhu Shu was a little strange today, she rarely showed up in the Lakers before, and she had always been working behind the scenes.

Why did you go against the norm today and follow yourself into the training camp?

When Li Liang saw the reporter who was mainly responsible for covering ESPN today, he understood a little in his heart.

"Hello, I'm Madeleine Burke." A tall woman who looked like Cameron Diaz, smiled sweetly, and had curly blond hair, greeted Li Liang.

She is a well-known beauty reporter for the Clippers, and has quickly become popular in Los Angeles in recent years.

Because of her good looks and sexy figure, her popularity among the fan base is quite high.

Li Liang had heard of her before with the Lakers, and occasionally bumped into her when she played at Stamps.

However, because she is mainly responsible for the news of the Clippers, she does not have much contact with Li Liang.

Now that Li Liang has joined the Clippers, the communication and interaction between the two will naturally increase.

Li Liang looked at Burke, and then secretly glanced at Zhu Shu who was standing behind him, and politely stretched out his hand to shake hands with Burke gently, "Hello, I'm Bruce Lee." ”

After saying that, he nodded and walked away.
