Gu Fei still remembers that he broke into the inside line in training and threw a throw, the basketball rose high, and the ball that he thought was set was directly picked off by Andre Jordan at the highest place, and the audience was shocked, but then Gu Fei made enough fouls on DeAndre Jordan's body.

Because of the shortage of interior manpower, Mike Dunleavy had to put Noah in the position of power forward, but Noah's offensive ability is insufficient, and the Clippers' interior lacks the ability to score, so if the Clippers' outside line can't open the situation, the Clippers will fall into a dangerous situation, but the combination of Noah and Chandler's interior line has raised the Clippers' interior defense to a terrifying level.

"Nell, the team's big forward position needs to be strengthened, and if it is not strengthened, I think all teams will take advantage of our weakness." Mike Dunleavy said as he looked at Olshu in front of him.

"Mike, I've thought about that, but I'm really sorry, maybe because we've had so much of the limelight that all the teams have turned down our trade offers, and there's no good option on the free market." Olshu's tone was full of helplessness.

And the fact is just as Olshu said, the Clippers, who staged a crazy miracle at the end of last season, have become a force to be reckoned with in the eyes of many giants in the league, and the Clippers in the offseason first stole the limelight in the draft and became the focus of attention in the transfer market, resulting in many teams now directly rejecting the Clippers trade, there is no doubt that they are red-eyed, they don't want to watch their competitors become stronger and stronger.

Mike Dunleavy frowned, if the position of the power forward cannot be strengthened, then it is a big hidden danger for the Clippers, and it will even have a knock-on effect on the entire team, all teams will run to the outside of the Clippers, as long as the outside of the Clippers is strangled, the Clippers' offense will become unmanned, but now there is no right player to trade and no suitable free agent, which can only be shelved.

Look at the players on the field. Mike Dunleavy's frowning brow hasn't relaxed for a long time, but slowly Dunleavy also wants to open it, although the interior offense is not good, but the defense is extremely powerful.

When the time came to the end of September, the curtain of the preseason was about to open, and the night was falling, and the sound of basketball hitting the ground could still be heard in Staples' training arena, Mike Dunleavy rubbed his temple, and as soon as he walked out of the office, the sound of the basketball hitting the ground drilled into his ears.

Looking at Gu Fei on the field, Mike Dunleavy stopped his steps and stood motionless on the sidelines. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, and said, "Gu, rest for a while, you must know that scientific training is the most important, follow me." ”

Looking at Mike Dunleavy, Gu Fei nodded, picked up the big towel on the ground and wiped the sweat on his face, and followed Mike Dunleavy into the head coach's office.

Gu Fei sat opposite Dunleavy, and Gu Fei's breathing slowly stabilized. looked at Dunleavy with a faint smile on his face, "Head, you won't let me come to admire your handsome face, right?" Gu Fei made a little joke

"Gu, it's okay. How do you feel now? The new season is about to start, how are you preparing? ”

"I'm preparing well, I'm looking forward to the new season, and now I'm finally not a rookie," Gu Fei said with a smile.

Mike Dunleavy laughs and says, "How's it going with your new teammates?" I'd like to hear your thoughts. ”

"Tyson's help defence has been outstanding. His defense may not be statically telling, but I think he's going to be the team's interior guardian and his coverage is good and I can find an easier way to shoot. If someone helps defend Tyson, he can take my pass and complete the offense, plus Noah's presence, our interior defense is a lot of the best in the league, but it is also the top; And Ron's personality and style of play can make our team tougher, on the defensive end he will be the biggest guarantee for our outside line, he can also make his teammates' defense better, I think he can teach us a lot of defensive skills, and his offense is not varied but enough to ensure that he becomes the team's second scorer, so that he can share my scoring pressure; And Andre is a great playmaker, to be honest I only knew Steve Nash and Jason Kidd and even Chris Paul but never put him in the league's top guards, but with him I can be more comfortable receiving the ball, and he's an effective low post singler, the only pity is that his perimeter shooting is really bad. Gu Fei analyzed little by little, this is the conclusion he came to through the old guys in the system and the usual training observations and video recordings, Mike Dunleavy nodded from time to time.

Gu Fei pondered for a while and continued: "And JR is undoubtedly a terrifying guy, I think his physical fitness is enough to rank in the top ten in the league, and his three-point madness I don't think is worse than me." ”

Dunleavy nodded, he knew that Gu Fei had enough confidence in three-point shooting, so when Gu Fei raised JR Smith's three-point shot to the same height as him, Mike Dunleavy knew how much Gu Fei admired JR's three-point shooting ability.

"But his three-point shot isn't consistent enough, which is a pity, and Steve Novak, oh my god, it's really hard to believe he's a big man, he's like a capstone battery, give him the ball and he can shoot it, he's got a big heart, and he's never given up on his efforts, I think the two of them can bring a lot of energy to the second lineup, and a couple of new guys are all with good talent, and I think Nell made a couple of good trades. Roy Hibbert: In the future, I want to develop well, maybe I can become the next Yao Ming. Speaking of this, Mike Dunleavy obviously lit up, and the next Yao Ming is not a simple title.

"So what about DeAndre Jordan, who will be next in your eyes?" Mike Dunleavy asked with a smile.

Looking at Dunleavy, Gu Fei lowered his head and thought for a while, "He will be himself"

"Himself?" Dunleavy asked in some surprise.

"Yes, he's a rare physicality maniac among big men, he can cover the entire basket when he jumps, he has a keen sense of rebounding, but his defensive experience is very inexperienced, and his ability to play under the basket still needs to be trained, if he is trained well, he will become a terrifying defender on the inside in the future"

"And what about the two little ones at the back?" Mike Dunleavy continued to ask.

"Mario is fast, but his body is a little thin and Golan is the same, but Golan's physical pressure resistance is much stronger than Mario's, and Mario's passing is not as good as Golan's, but Mario's three-point shooting and determination are better than Golan's, and all in all, they will be a good starting point guard."

Mike Dunleavy listened carefully to Gu Fei's analysis, nodded again and again, and was very pleased, "What about you in the new season?" ”

"Me?" Gu Fei asked with some suspicion.

Looking at Gu Fei with a suspicious face, Dunleavy said with a smile: "Yes, you!" Ready to score or defend or all-round, my Clippers leader"

Asked by Dunleavy, Gu Fei thought for a while, "Scoring, defense will definitely be necessary, but I think my scoring pressure will be much less this season, and I will put more energy into the defensive end, but I will take on the team's offense at critical moments" said Gu Fei's eyes were full of firmness and his tone was full of confidence at the critical moment.

"Do you still want to hand over key moments to your teammates?" Dunleavy laughed and said, "You know that you are the leader of the team, you have to take on the key moments of the team, you have to always remember that you are the leader of the team, and I believe you can do a good job." ”

"Hehe, I think I will" Gu Fei replied with a smile, his smile full of confidence.
