Day 1 of the camp big sharks. O'Neill and Lamar. Odom didn't show up, much to the disappointment of the media on the sidelines.

But the first day of camp was a good start overall, but Roy. Hibbert seemed a little silent, Lin Fei felt it, as the leader of the team, he felt that it was necessary for him to talk to Hibbert, Lin Fei understood Hibbert's feelings, he had good playing time last season when he was a rookie, and later he was selected for the second team of the best rookie team, and the Clippers continued to spend a lot of money in the offseason, and finally recruited three long-famous interior players, and he was originally the team's first interior substitute, but now he is naturally ranked behind, and his heart is naturally a little uncomfortable, His agent even asked him to spread out with the team and ask for a transfer.

Hibbert's ears echoed the words of the agent repeatedly, and there was a fierce struggle in his mind, so much so that he didn't realize that Lin Fei had stood beside him at all.

"Roy, what do you want? Do you miss your girlfriend? Lin Fei patted Hibbert on the shoulder.

Facing the sudden Lin Fei, Hibbert was obviously startled, and only relaxed when he saw that it was Lin Fei, "I didn't think about anything, I may be a little tired, it should be that I haven't come back from the feeling of vacation." Hibbert felt that his improvised remark was a good reason.

Lin Fei understood from Hibbert's flickering eyes that this sentence was just an excuse, but Lin Fei didn't reveal it, turned on the shower on the side, and said in a very ordinary tone, "How was this summer?" ”

"Well, it's okay, it's pretty good."

"Roy, one thing I think you know, is that this season the team has brought in Rashid, Shaquille and Lamar, and their arrival will definitely strengthen us, but the point is that you will definitely play a little less than last year, do you have any ideas, you can talk to me."

As a rookie, Hibbert is naturally embarrassed to say anything, not to mention that his surname is not extroverted enough.

"Roy, I want to hear what you really think, if you don't have an idea I definitely don't believe it, but I can tell you that you are our future number one center, there is no second option, of course this premise is that you need to do better to keep improving, Nell, Mike believe you can do it."

Hibbert was visibly stunned, "I'm the Clippers' future No. 1 center?" ”

"Yes, you're the one who, do you expect Shaquille to fight them until they're forty? You should know that it takes three years for a center to complete the most basic development, and this is your second year, the team has brought them in, you have a great opportunity to learn, I believe that with your ability you can learn a lot from them, if you don't want to wait on the bench for the opportunity to play every game, you have a limited amount of time to say to Nell that you want to leave, but for personal reasons I want you to stay. Lin Fei looked straight at Hibbert.

Hibbert's big boy's face instantly turned a little red and hot.

"Well, I'll think about it."

The next day, Hibbert discouraged his agent from the idea of transferring, and in training he was like a kid who had just entered school, constantly asking O'Neal and Wallace for defensive and offensive advice. And Wallace and O'Neill are the kind of guys who can particularly liven up the atmosphere, and directly drive the atmosphere of the whole training.

Lin Fei stood outside the three-point line on the left side, received O'Neal's pass, looked at O'Neal on the inside, the man who had ruled the league for many years smiled, jumped out of his hand, and his hand was still so outstanding, and the basketball crossed an arc and fell into the basket.

"Shaq, it's a beautiful pass." Lin Fei shouted at O'Neill.

"Wow, I'm going to be the team's assist leader this season, and that's how it is." Saying that, O'Neal picked up the ball and threw it at Lin Fei again, Lin Fei unceremoniously caught the ball and threw it, and the basketball went into the basket accurately again.

"Lin, three points, an assist from Shaquille, who is simply a super-sized playmaker." O'Neill's trick amused everyone directly.

"Shaq, you took my job, what should I do? Nell will deduct my salary, I'm poor. "Andrey. Miller laughed and engaged.

After more than half a month of training, the tacit understanding of the new Clippers is getting higher and higher, but it still needs to wait for the test of the game.

On October 7, the Los Angeles Clippers ushered in their new season preseason, and the Clippers will welcome the challenge of the Atlanta Hawks in a small county below Los Angeles, and countless media have focused on the Los Angeles Lakers.

"The New Clippers Move Forward" -- the title of the Los Angeles Times sports column.

The Clippers have lost to the mighty Lakers in the playoffs for two consecutive seasons, and the Clippers are extremely reluctant to lose to their local rivals, but the truth is so cruel, the Clippers, who have made a comeback in the offseason, have become the frontrunners in the huge arms race, and look at the lineup, if only on paper, they have become the strongest contenders for the O'Brien Cup.

Lin Fei: The leader core of the Clippers, with super individual scoring ability, NBA No. 1 three-pointer, All-Star player, his running position, three-point is still unsolvable, Lin Fei last season has shown his ability on the defensive end, his defense and offense will become more mature in the new season, I look forward to Lin in the new season, what will his data be? Where is his progress? Based on the data of the previous two seasons, I expect Lin Fei's average data in the new season to be 25 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block and 2 steals, and there is no doubt that he is on the road to superstardom.

Shaquille. O'Neal: This league used to be a super center, a superstar player, everyone thought that the shark was old, but last season's shark glowed with a second spring and became bloodthirsty again, the new season Shaq has reached the age of 37, his state will definitely continue to decline, but for the Clippers with six interior lines, Shaq can make good use of his playing time to maintain efficiency, I think this is not a problem for Shaq at all, predicting that Shaq's playing time in the new season will not be about 22 minutes, He averaged 12 points, 7 rebounds and 1 block per game.

Rashid. Wallace: Roaring Tianzun, one of the top four in the league in the early 21st century, an All-Star player, the Celtics launched a vigorous pursuit of Rashid in the offseason, but in the end the Clippers became his next home, Rashid's experience will become a huge asset, and his playing time will not be too much in about 22 minutes, but I believe his statistics will not be too bad, it is worth mentioning that Rashid, who likes to shoot three-pointers, will he learn more in the company of Lin Fei, Jr Smith and other three-point masters? If the three-point shooting percentage is as high as 40 percent in the new season, well, I wouldn't be surprised, predicting 10 points, 6 rebounds, 1 block in the new season.

Andre. Miller: Traditional playmaker, former assist king in the league, underrated point guard, he averaged 8.8 assists per game for the Clippers last season, and his assists may drop a little in the new season, why? Because Lin will be involved in more playmaking offense, but Andre's lethality is still undoubted, and his average of 12 points and 8 assists per game in the new season is still his data line.

Lamar. Odom: The former successor of Magic, who made a great contribution to the Lakers' championship last season, no one could have imagined that he would leave the Lakers and come to the Clippers and return to the place where his career began, and he would be the leader of the Clippers' bench in the new season, and the best sixth man may be his.

Tyson. Chandler: He will still be the starting center of the Clippers in the new season, O'Neal will be his backup, although he was blown up last season, but from the detailed data analysis Tyson is still an efficient defender, the surface data deceives people's feelings, and there is no doubt that Tyson will perform better with stronger teammates in the new season.

…… Well, after analyzing the players, the strengths and weaknesses of the Clippers are also extremely obvious, and this is where the Clippers need to work hard.

Looking at the Clippers with a lineup that is enough to form two sets of starters, they will encounter a serious reality, that is, how to allocate the playing time of the players, as well as the mentality of young players, their opportunities will undoubtedly become fewer with the arrival of veterans, not every young man is willing to wait, especially Roy. Hibbert, the league's recognized potential center, had a good start in his rookie season, but his playing time will undoubtedly be drastically reduced in the new season, and the arrival of Odom has left the guard with a lot of opportunities, all of which will require the Clippers to work on.

Finally, it is hoped that the new clipper will sail to its final destination.

This op-ed is a fitting analysis, Mike. Dunleavy and Nell. Olshu does have happy troubles.

In the first game of the preseason against the Hawks, the Clippers sent Tyson. Chandler, Rasheed Wallace, Artest, Lin Fei, Andre. Miller's five-man starting line-up, followed by O'Neal, Odom, Wilson. Chandler, J.R. Smith and Chalmers formed a second team with five straight up and five shots, and then practiced in various configurations, and the game was not very good, and finally won by only five points.

Winning or losing isn't what the Clippers are looking for, though, and they're looking to see the team have the perfect chemistry, and the first preseason game is undoubtedly still underway.

By the end of the seven preseason games, the Clippers had only won three of them, but the margin of loss in four games was within 10 points. Dunleavy's rotation is a headache.

The preseason game made the Clippers look like they hadn't been polished yet, which made the Clippers look far less powerful than they were on paper.

And unlike most of the outside world, the Clippers' training is still full of laughter and looks unaffected.

In this atmosphere, the Los Angeles Clippers ushered in the start of a new season, the first game they will go to the road to face a formidable opponent San Antonio Spurs, one of the protagonists of the offseason arms race, like the Los Angeles Clippers is Richard. Jefferson, a would-be All-Star small forward, didn't fit into the team in preseason either, and this game was one of three openers of the new season.

On October 29, 2009, in San Antonio, the curtain of the NBA's 2009-2010 season slowly opened.
