Chapter Ninety-One: The Same City Is the Enemy!
Phil Knight will be there with Trim to watch the game, which is enough to show that Nike has become the ultimate winner in the battle for Zhang, so he obviously agreed to those requests. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Wei will never let go of his mouth first, anyway, he is not short of money now.
His father's Dragonborn company is already worth more than $100 million, and the market value will snowball in the future, maybe it will be worth more than Nike.
This is the reason why he has the confidence to ask for a sky-high price, and after he plays better results, if there is still no manufacturer willing to compromise, it is a big deal for him to buy a small sneaker manufacturer and make an endorsement for himself.
"My dad is so good, who am I afraid of!"
This is Zhang Fu's inner monologue, so when he chooses endorsements, he always does not seek quantity, but only quality.
You may not be a Fortune 500 company in the world, but you must be unique in your field, which is the minimum requirement for Zhang Mao to receive endorsements.
Today, Lakers fans pulled up a lot of banners on the scene to make fun of the Clippers' eyes, but the Clippers' record this season is not bad, and they are currently in eighth place in the West, just knocking out the Kings.
The addition of Divac and Jones completely makes up for the Clippers' shortcomings last season, and while neither of them is really a star, at least they won't be shortcomings in their respective positions.
Clippers starters: Brent Barry, Eddie Jones, Rodney Rodgers, Lloy Ott, Verratti Divac.
Lakers starters: Van Exel, Ceballos, Zhang, Bison, Campbell.
This game is very important for the Lakers, if they lose to the Clippers, then they will be ridden by this city rival, and the two teams will have a role swap, and the third place will become the Clippers, and the Lakers fans at that time can't laugh when they think about it.
The player who has had the biggest impact on the Clippers this season is none other than European center Divac, who was traded by the Lakers.
The Clippers have no shortcomings and no real stars, and that is where Divac's all-round technical style comes into play, as well as what he does best, in the high post.
Divac is now playing the role of a bearing connecting the inside and outside of the Clippers, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the core.
The Serbian and Montenegro center has shown excellent high-post adaptability, he also has an excellent back-to-back ability, and can contribute an average of 15+10+4 data per game, a proper quasi-All-Star inside, if he can score a few more points, even the word "quasi" can be removed.
Divac is actually very similar to the later Pau Gasol in terms of personality and technique, except for a slightly worse athleticism and defense, he can be regarded as a slightly lower configuration Gasol.
If Divac is brought to a team with a strict management system, a complete tactical system and a good team atmosphere, he can at least play the role of Gasol.
The two veterans of the Lakers are not easy people, Baylor still has a vision, if it weren't for Zhang Zhu's too perverted performance, this deal would definitely be more profitable for the Clippers.
It would be unfair to blindly belittle Lord Baylor now for having no eyes.
Both of them are holding their breath today, especially Eddie Jones, who has adjusted his condition, his current average data per game is 16+4+3, and his shooting rate is close to 50%, and he played such data in the second year, and there is nothing wrong with saying that he is an All-Star guard.
The Clippers used a high school student to trade two high-quality potential stocks among the two would-be All-Stars, which is obviously a no-brainer, and the blame can only be blamed on Baylor's natural decaying attributes.
At the beginning of the game, the Clippers played a more fluid offense than the Lakers, especially Divac, who was on the high post, and was quite a bit of a three-way commander, and he and Lloy made the interior line very popular.
Lloy Ott is a good match for Divac, a fierce interior player with good footwork and mobility, so he has a lot of range, is good at scrambling and protecting rebounds, and has a lot of body.
The two formed a very good chemistry on the inside, one soft and one strong, one high and one fast, and Lloy also used his strengths to make up for Divac's slightly poor defense.
Brent Barry first received a pass from a teammate and hit a three-pointer after the opening, then Divac used his excellent back-to-back skills to beat his old teammate Campbell to score a goal, and then assisted Lloy to dunk the basket, and the Clippers opened with a 7-0 attack wave.
Zhang Wei was a little embarrassed, he just entered the inside line to face Lauie's pinch, and contributed a mistake in the opening game, losing some face in front of several beautiful fans.
Today, except for Lin Xilei, who just finished walking the bird, the other two beautiful fans are also watching the game on the spot, so losing face is absolutely unacceptable, otherwise how can he continue to sow seeds to other fans? Is the agriculture channel going to continue?
However, the Clippers' roster is a bit of a trick, and opposite him is Rodney Rodgers, who scored nine points in eight seconds last year, who is a very efficient three-point shooter who is not very good defensively, but is now positively okay.
After Zhang Qi broke through him, he had to face the inside Lauie pinch attack as soon as possible, and it was not easy to get a chance to shoot.
"It's just right, since this guy has a single defense, I simply don't go inside, and directly use the foot advantage to ** him."
Zhang Mao's mind is lively, this guy is just right to verify his playing style in virtual training, don't think that his "basket shaking technique" is really fooling, at least he is really fast!
Rodney was a little nervous in the face of Zhang Zhu, and this attack he was one-on-one with Zhang Zhu on the right flank, standing a little far away, obviously worried about being passed by Zhang Zhu in one step.
Zhang Qi was one step away from the three-point line and saw a shooting opportunity, but hesitated a little in his heart and took another step forward before shooting.
Although the ball was extremely fast, Rodney's block could not affect him at all, but his shooting rhythm was obviously wrong, and the basketball smashed the basket.
"Damn, I shouldn't have hesitated just now, although taking one more step makes the shooting distance closer, but the shooting rhythm is also messed up, just now I found that there is a chance, I should shoot as soon as possible!"
Zhang Wei knew that he had made the same mistake as before, he should attack more resolutely, or he would not shoot, or he would shoot wherever he wanted, even if he was one step away from the three-point line.
This was two seasons ago, and one step away is the normal three-point shooting distance.
The cheers of the Lakers fans began to subside, and they felt that Zhang was not in good shape today, missing two shots in the opening game and making one turnover.
The Clippers, on the other hand, play very smoothly on offense, and these guys do a better job of sharing the ball than the Lakers, and everyone is willing to cover off the ball. Next, the Clippers used Divac as the axis, with continuous passing balls and positional covers, and soon allowed Eddie Jones to get a good one-on-one opportunity on the weak side.
Ceballos ran around with his former teammate, his steps were a little messy, and the opponent seized the opportunity to make a pull-up jump shot to score two points.
At 9 minutes and 49 seconds, the score was 9:0, and the Clippers opened the game against the visitors, forcing Harris to ask for a timeout.
Clippers head coach Bill Fitch has a close-up at this moment, the coach who coached the Celtics for four years in the 80s and led the Green Army to a championship in 81, it can be said that he has a lot of seniority, coaching experience, and championship experience enough to shock the game.
This team without real stars, under the coaching of a championship coach like Bill Fitch, can basically do the level of commanding and prohibiting.
This is very important for the fighting power of the team, and those teams with good discipline are usually more likely to produce results.
Although the Clippers don't have a real All-Star, they have three-star prospects, and there are a lot of outstanding rookies and role players on the team.
"Leon, what the hell are you doing on the field?"
After Harris paused, he first called Zhang Zhu's name, who told him to stick to the ball for a few minutes but didn't contribute at all, the team's tactics stalled as soon as he arrived, Harris felt as if Zhang Qiu didn't have a soul today.
Zhang Yu hurriedly admitted his mistake, he really can't take the game as his testing ground, no matter how strong his personal ability is, he must first implement tactics, the Lakers played far less smoothly than the Clippers at the beginning, and he has to carry this pot.
After the timeout, Zhang Zhu did not go to singled Rodney again.
Although the "singles tactic" is the most common tactic in the NBA, it is not the first priority to execute, and those teams that do not have a tactic will patronize the singles.
If he wants to play the role of the heart of the team, he must figure out when to play individual singles and when to play team attack. Just like Divac on the other side, this Serbian black man obviously has an excellent back-to-back kung fu, but you will never see him blindly attacking with back-to-back play.
Zhang began to create opportunities for the team with his breakaway shots and pick-and-rolls again, and he and Campbell and Bisson began to play pick-and-rolls more often in these games.
In this era, the efficiency of "blocking and dismantling offense" is very high, and a star-level outside line must not be able to block and dismantle.
The Clippers' efficiency in blocking and pick-and-roll is just not very good, and although Divac's defense is not helpless against blocking, he has the common problem of European players - soft and slow!
Zhang Yu paid attention to this guy's fake fall when he broke through, and the Lakers all knew that this guy had the title of "actor". Someone once ridiculed him for "If there is a fake fall training camp, the big dream can be closed", which shows that his fake fall kung fu can be called a grandmaster in the NBA, and there are basically no opponents.
However, this is the home court of the Lakers, and Zhang Qi was repeatedly reminded by his teammates and his own coaching staff before the game, and even watched a set of internal treasured "Divac fake falls", so as soon as he met Divac today, he immediately felt a warning in his heart.
Divac quickly faced Zhang Zhu, when Zhang Qi and Campbell disassembled, Divac immediately chose to wrap Zhang Qiu with Rodney, and predicted the timing in advance, and quickly crossed the path of Zhang Zhu, now just wait for the moment when the other party collided, screamed and fell backwards......
There was a harsh grinding sound of "squeak", and there was a violent friction between the sole of Zhang Mao's shoes and the floor!
Zhang Qian has been paying attention to this guy's fake fall, and as soon as he saw this big white beard with a malicious face on his breakthrough route, he immediately stopped and stopped the brake.
How could Divac have thought that Zhang Qi would be so cunning, he didn't expect that the other party could brake in time in front of him, but his body continued to fly backwards according to the written script at this moment, as if he was knocked away by Zhang Fu with internal force.
"Awesome!" Zhang Wei complained in his heart, he explained this ball too cleanly, and he was not afraid that this guy would get a foul on him.
At this time, there was no defender in front of him, Zhang Yu made an easy jump shot, the sense of rhythm was very good, and the basketball fell into the net!
"It seems that as long as the pace of shooting is good, it doesn't matter how fast or slow you shoot." Zhang Qian didn't shoot this ball fast, but he still felt very comfortable after the shot, "As long as you find the right shooting rhythm, shoot resolutely, whether it's fast or slow, these are left to the body to feel." ”
With a score of 9:2, Zhang Qi finally opened up after playing for nearly three minutes in the game.
Lakers fans immediately gave him a cheer!
As for someone who was falling to the ground, as if he had been knocked away by some mysterious force, what he got was of course the unceremonious ridicule of the fans.
