"This season...... We're not disappointed, we've done what we didn't do last year, we've taken a big step forward. The first question of the opening game was undoubtedly thrown at Rivers about his thoughts on the Clippers this season.

"We've got a lot of good players this year, whether it's Granger, or Davis, or Chen, and they've made us more impactful, and our core players are still young or at the best age, and I'm sure the Clippers will be even better next year." Rivers added that it's not just him who believes it, but the rest of the Clippers believe it too.

"Now that there are more and more comments about Chen's deal, and even Charlotte and Dallas have started operations, I wonder if this news is true?" A reporter in Los Angeles asked, Chen Lei is now a sweet and sweet among 10,000 people, and his trade rumors have always been people's attention to the Clippers' movements.

Compared to other reporters, only locals really care about the future of the city's team, and most of the others come for the topic.

However, this question is a little bit of gossip, but they didn't think much about it when they asked it, and they were completely on the Clippers' side of concern.

"Nonsense!" Rivers shook his head, "Chan has brought so much to us this year, everyone has seen his energy, I wouldn't be surprised to compare him to the bosses of all teams, he's a talented player, trade him?" No one can open the price in my heart, he is priceless. ”

Rivers directly denied that this was not only a question that had been asked many times, but it was not a show of nonsense, but in his heart, he really didn't want to trade Chen Lei.

The biggest takeaway from the Clippers this season is nothing more than two points, one of which is breaking the franchise record and setting the best regular season and playoff results. The second is to get this all-round striker. A steady dìng killer who is incomprehensible.

However, Griffin and Chen Lei are destined to not coexist. After all, the strongest points of the two are in the big forwards, and they are both superstar blanks.

Friendship? In the face of status, the friendship that has been forged in the past few months can be completely ignored.

"The final defeat in this game is considered by netizens to be unlucky as Spurs, what do you think?" A Cleveland reporter asked.

"Luck? What kind of rhetoric is this? I don't think we're unlucky, but we're good. Rivers smiled slightly, "Whether it's the Warriors or the Thunder, they are both great teams, and if we can beat them, why don't we have luck?" The Spurs are already very strong, and this year they have frustrated us again and again with their complete system, and I don't think it's luck that they qualified. ”

Rivers didn't mean to elevate the Spurs either. It was the answer in his mind.

You must know that the Clippers with Paul Chen Lei, Griffin Crawford and others can threaten each team's defense in terms of offensive ability, and the opponent not only caught up with the widening point difference of his side several times with the magical sharing of the ball, but also often made the Clippers tired on the offensive and defensive ends, which can be said to be very tough.

"So in your opinion, who will win the Spurs or the Heat?" A Miami reporter asked, knowing that the Heat have been resting for a long time, and the Heat, who have not played for a long time, have made them wait too long.

"There's no doubt that both teams are very strong, but there's only one champion, and if I had to choose, I'd have chosen Spurs." Rivers replied, "They have a stronger system. More complete team combat capabilities. ”

"Then what do you mean, if you enter the finals, you will also win the championship, after all, although you are defeated, you are one small step away from the finals. Can I understand it that way? The Miami reporter asked again.

Rivers shrugged, "That's right, that's it, you're right. ”

As a well-known manager, Rivers was interviewed for a long time, followed by individual interviews with the players.

Before the press conference began, the Clippers staff had given each reporter a form to check who they wanted to interview, so the Clippers also divided the categories for the way players were interviewed.

For those who have the lowest number of votes in the interviewer's vote, the medium vote is also interviewed together, and the people with the highest number of votes who want to be interviewed will come again, a total of three waves.

The first two waves of people didn't waste much time, and if it weren't for the support of the local media, it would have taken three or two minutes to end a round of interviews.

In the third wave, the wave with the most votes is the most important, and it is what these people have been waiting for for a long time.

The team's core point guard Paul, starting power forward Griffin and starting center Jordan Jr., and the last one is super newcomer Chen Lei.

The first three are the Big Three handpicked by Rivers when he first came to the Clippers, but even if Rivers has not made a clear statement after the season, Chen Lei already has the strength comparable to several people in the eyes of media people.

15.5 points, 6 rebounds and 4.2 assists in the regular season, you must know that at that time, he was not only limited in his playing opportunities but also a semi-bench, averaging 24 points, 7.6 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game in the playoffs, ranking highest in the team, but only third in the number of shots, such offensive efficiency is the league's best.

The first two questions were all about the season and the Finals, and Paul answered them, and the third question went to Griffin.

"Griffin, I don't know if I will practice more long-range offense in the offseason, you must know that you and Chen's interior combination has been commented as the strongest interior firepower combination, if you add outside firepower, it will definitely make the enemy fearful." A female reporter asked, with a look of anticipation in her eyes.

Griffin glanced at Chen Lei, thinking about the long distance he had always wanted to improve, this is feasible, you must know that this guy is because of this reason that his defenders have an incomparable headache and have been following.

Wait, why do you feel like this is a strange question?

Why should I practice long distances? I'm the inside leader of the team!

"That's something to think about, but I think I'd better think about how I can add my attack at close range, because at the end of the day, I still like to fight on the inside." Griffin laughed, I am the Clippers' former leader, and I will be their future leader!

"What about Chen, what are your dissatisfaction with yourself? Do you have any plans for the offseason? A reporter from Los Angeles asked.

"I'm going to go back home for a few days in the offseason and I'm going to lose a little weight, and I'm going to say that I'm not unhappy with my body, but I'm going to improve my speed." Chen Lei replied after thinking.

The Chinese reporters in the audience leaked a trace of excitement when they heard this, and Yang Caini raised her arms to get the opportunity to interview, and said, "I don't know if Da Lei is returning to China to participate in the preparation for the Asian Games?" ”

Preparing for the Asian Games? Chen Lei really didn't know how to answer. (To be continued......)
