"We have to do something, not watch, and tell Jeff that guy that 37 million in 4 years, 3+1 final year player option is our biggest limit, and if we don't agree to welcome him to a new owner, I don't think the Clippers are stupid." Kupchak snorted coldly.

"No problem, I'll communicate with Jeff Schmitz immediately." The assistant agreed, and Kupchak stopped him just as he was about to leave the door.

"Offering David Lee, Nate Robinson, Sessions, I don't think there's any reason for them to turn down a call from a championship-caliber team, we need fresh blood, and next year we'll still be the last ones to lift the championship."

The assistant nodded in agreement and turned around and walked out of the office, and the Spurs, Magic, and Clippers trade was like kicking off the arms race for the 2009-2010 season.

"Roaring Celestial Honors Moves into Los Angeles, New Aircraft Carrier Ready to Go" – Yahoo Sports headlines have officially confirmed the news that Rasheed Wallace has joined the Clippers.

According to the league's official news, former All-Star player Rashid Wallace officially signed with the Los Angeles Clippers, the contract is temporarily unknown, and the Los Angeles Clippers, who are imperative to strengthen the interior line, have taken a practical step, although Rashid is no longer at his peak but his strength is still there, and it will be a strong addition to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Shortly after the news that Wallace officially signed with the Clippers, the NBA's official website officially announced a trade for Big Shark O'Neal.

"The Sharks Return to Los Angeles, the Clippers Carrier Group Luxury Inside" is just like the previous leaked trade, the final trade plan is not much different from the leaked trade plan, the only difference is that the Clippers changed the 2010 first-round pick to the 2010 and 2011 second-round picks and Roy Hibbert was also added to it and the trade exception became 5 million, and the final plan was that the Clippers sent Steve Novak, Sam Cassel, rookie Juan Blair, A 2011 first-round pick, two second-round picks in 2010 and 2011 and a $5 million trade exception and $3 million in trade compensation cash in exchange for Big Shark O'Neal and a 2010 second-round pick.

Just as the deal was completed, the Suns announced a buyout of Cassel, and the Clippers announced for the first time that alien Sam Cassel would be the team's assistant coach.

After the completion of the trade, the Clippers' interior line has also completed a gorgeous upgrade, from the original three-man rotation of Tyson Chandler, Josh McRoberts, and Noah to a five-man rotation of luxury interior combination, although Wallace and O'Neal are no longer at their peak, such a five-man interior combination will still become one of the most powerful interior combinations in the league.

"We were supposed to get Rashid, damn the L.E., the Clippers were as nasty as the Lakers, and we immediately offered Lamar Odom." Danny Ainge, who was far away in Boston, was depressed after seeing the news and could only change his pursuit goals, but the team's salary space did not allow him to offer Odom a big contract, and he could only hope to lure Odom with favors and championship promises, apparently he did not know that Odom's agent Jeff Schmitz had reached a basic agreement with Nell Olshu.

On the same day, the Phoenix Suns announced that they had signed with free agent center Channing Frye, and reached a two-year contract extension with Steve Nash, the core of the team.

Under the pressure of competition from the Cleveland Cavaliers who were cut off by the Clippers, the 34-year-old Parker is a swingman who can shoot and defend, and played 80 regular season games for the Raptors last season, averaging 10.7 points, 4 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 33 minutes per game.

The Celtics, who were also targeted by the Clippers for Wallace, made several signings in a row, first signing Daniels, a 28-year-old scoring guard who played well with the Pacers last season, with a two-year special contract of 1.9 million. You must know that Daniels could get a career-high 13.6 points and 4.6 rebounds in the Pacers last season, such a contract is undoubtedly worth it, and even caused dissatisfaction among other uniforms in the league, unanimous that the Celtics did not follow the formal market rules, but Daniels himself was willing to accept this contract, others can only complain, and the Celtics then signed free agent Sheldon Williams, the No. 5 pick in 2006 as power forward, and renewed the contract of Glen Davis, the big baby who was selected in the second round of the playoffs, to further work hard to regain the championship.

The Dallas Mavericks, on the other hand, were unlucky, missing their important interior rotation Brandon Buss.

"There's no doubt they breached credibility and I can't say anything more, Orlando broke the rules and said we could get Gortat and they wouldn't match the contract, so we didn't match Brandon, but in fact they played us and we lost an important player for it, even if it's a commercial league, it's shameful to do that." Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said this to reporters, and the Magic became the subject of criticism from other uniform groups in the league.

In the end, the magic that was strengthened through the trade matched the 5-year 34 million fat contract offered by the Mavericks for the Polish hammer Gortatt and took the Mavericks' interior titan Brandon Buss into the account, and the interior strength was further upgraded, and then signed Matt Barnes, who performed well in the Suns last season, and the heart of the championship is well known to passers-by. However, in the end, they still lost the star and moon god of war Tekoglu, and the Torontoons offered the Turks a big contract of 50 million for 5 years, and the 30-year-old Tekoglu could not refuse such a contract, and the loss of Tekoglu was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Magic.

But Magic's general manager Otis Smith is confident in his own operation, believing that while keeping the team's three All-Star teams Howard, Lewis and Nelson unchanged, he has recruited a series of powerful players such as Carter, Buss and Barnes to win a championship next season.

The Bull-Horse Wars have always been a classic matchup in the West, and the San Antonio Spurs have been on a recruiting spree this summer, not only getting the perfect trade for outside hitter Richard Jefferson, but also striking a deal with former blocker Theo Ratledge on the inside.

There are fewer and fewer good players on the free market, and only a handful of players are still being harassed by various teams, with the best of them undoubtedly being Lamar Odom, who won last season's Lakers, David Lee, the Knicks' 05 duo, and Nate Robinson, the small potato dunk king, who are thrown into the rumors almost every day.

"What? Rejected our contract? Why? Mark Cuban couldn't believe Odom would turn down a big four-year, $40 million contract from the Mavericks.

"Lamar Odom's agent said they had reached a signing agreement with Los Angeles, and he didn't say the exact amount, but it shouldn't be worse than ours."

"Not worse than us? Is Mickey's miser so generous? Mark Cuban naturally thought of the Lakers.

That's when the NBA's official website updated the headlines.

"Odom signs the Clippers, the Lakers suffer a heavy blow" Lamar Odom, one of the heroes of the Los Angeles Lakers championship last season, became a free agent in the offseason and became the object of competition for various teams in the league, and finally the Lakers city team Clippers became Lamar Odom's new owner, the specific contract is not known for the time being, the Los Angeles Clippers are where Odom's career began, and the Los Angeles Clippers once again strengthened the interior line, and the six interior lineups are directed to the championship.

When this news came out, Lakers fans were angry because they felt betrayal, and they were betrayed.

"He's a liar, we'll never forgive him, and if he stands in front of me, I'll entertain him with my fist."

"He's careful when he comes home!"

"The Purple and Gold never need traitors, and the championship will always belong to us."

……

Lakers fans were understandably angry, and that's when Lakers general manager Kupchak updated his Twitter.

"I wish Lamar a good start, it's our regret that he didn't get his contract renewed, I understand the role of money, Lamar's departure from the Lakers will still move forward, we still have Bryant, Paul, Anzu and Phil......"

The tweet undoubtedly directly described Odom as money and refused to renew his contract with the Lakers, and the anger of Lakers fans grew stronger and stronger.

Odom even received death threats, which made Odom feel uneasy, and he was not prepared to respond to anything, after all, he had a happy life and reached the peak of his career during the Lakers' years, but Kupchak's remarks undoubtedly caused him a huge serious injury and incited radical fans.

"I'm thankful for my Lakers years, I've had a great time with the Lakers, I got the championship ring I was looking forward to, I'm not one to leave for money, I want to find more challenges, I still have a long way to go, but there's no denying that my career has entered the countdown maybe five years or four years before I leave this league, where I started my career with the Clippers, he has never changed in my memory, Back here I hope to have a perfect ending like a fairy tale with a perfect ending, yes I rejected the Lakers' contract Mitch offered 4 years and 32.8 million, but I refused, maybe some people say I was in it for money, but the Clippers' contract is only 5 years and 35 million, I just want to end my career at the beginning of my career, I hope the fans look at it rationally, thank you Lakers fans, good luck to the Lakers. It was Odom's final expression of affection on a talk show in Los Angeles, and the leak of the video eased the minds of many radical fans, while Kupchak was criticized for being ruthless.

Kobe Bryant, the star of the Lakers, also expressed his opinion, "Lamar is grateful for everything he has brought us, and I wish him a good start and end with the Clippers." ”

As the summer of 2009 slowly drew to a close, and there was less and less movement on the free market, the Lakers, who lost Odom, announced on August 28 that they had officially signed David on a one-year, $8 million contract, who averaged a double-double last season with the Knicks. Lee, while the New York Knicks did not choose to match the contract offered by the Lakers.

On the same day, the Dallas Mavericks announced that they had officially signed interior stalwart Drew. Gooden, used to enhance the team's interior strength, has a good interior offensive strength will undoubtedly become a good helper for Nowitzki, which also slightly makes up for Mark. Kuban wounded heart.

The Celtics struggled to pursue Big Ben Wallace, who was bought out by the Cavaliers, when the number of interior players on the free market was decreasing, but in the end, the pursuit was fruitless. Wallace opted to return to the Detroit Pistons, where he was at the peak of his career, with a base salary of $1.3 million on a veteran contract.

"God decided that Memphis would be the place where I would continue my career. I've met Grizzlies owners Michael Hayes and Chris Wallace and my next head coach, Hollins. The text was written on Iverson's blog, and Ai Jr. made it clear that Hollins was his next manager. At this point, the rumors that Ain Jr. is going to play in Europe because no team is willing to accept it.

Three days later, Iverson joined the Grizzlies with Grizzlies owner Michael. Confirmation from Hayes, general manager Wallace and Grizzlies coach Hollins.

"We're done with our work, now it's up to you!" Olshu said with a smile.

"Yes, I think I'll be fired if we don't break through, and the fans won't let us go." Mike Dunleavy said with a smile on his face.

On the day of the start of training camp for each team, the San Antonio Spurs, who have been moving in the offseason, were once again reported to sign free return swingman Keith Bogans with a veteran base salary to further strengthen the team's roster.

"Crazy 2009, The Great Arms Race" - ESPN Feature.

Unknowingly, the offseason is coming to an end, and in this crazy summer, although the Magic and Spurs and the Celtics are constantly aiming for the championship, the Los Angeles Clippers, who signed the three powerful inside lines of Roaring Tianzun Wallace, Big Shark O'Neal, and Lamar Odom, have once again become the focus of media attention, and the Clippers' summer moves have been rated A+ at the highest level, while the Spurs and Magic have all received A ratings.

But everything is a prediction, everything has to wait for the start of the season, and even if the regular season is perfect, it will have to be tested by the playoffs to prove who will emerge victorious in the arms race in the summer of 2009.

On September 20th, the Los Angeles Clippers training camp officially opened, Gu Fei was still the first to arrive, this summer Gu Fei still threw himself into training after returning from the Maldives, when the new teammates arrived one by one, Gu Fei's idea of winning the championship became clearer and clearer.

This was undoubtedly the best year for Gu Fei, and this time he had no reason to fail.

Neither the big sharks O'Neal nor Lamar Odom showed up on the first day of training camp, much to the disappointment of the media on the sidelines.

But the first day of training camp was generally a good start, but Noah seemed a little silent, Gu Fei felt it, as the leader of the team, he felt the need to talk to Noah, Gu Fei understood Hibbert's mood, he also had a good playing time last season, and the offseason Clippers continued to spend a lot of money on the inside, and finally recruited three long-famous inside players, and he was originally the team's first inside substitute, but now he was naturally ranked behind, and he was naturally a little uncomfortable, His agent even asked him to spread out with the team and ask for a transfer.

Noah'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 Gu Fei had stood beside him at all.

"Joaquin, what do you think? Do you miss your girlfriend? Gu Fei patted Hibbert on the shoulder.

Facing the sudden Gu Fei, Noah was obviously shocked, and saw that it was Gu Fei who relaxed, as a rookie who struggled with Gu Fei in the new season, he was also one of the last few people in the league who had a relationship with Gu Fei, so he also believed in Gu Fei very much, "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." Noah felt that his impromptu remark was a good reason.

Gu Fei understood from Noah's flickering eyes that this sentence was just an excuse, but Gu Fei didn't expose 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."

"Noah, 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 our strength, 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 player who is not so good so far, he can't say anything, not to mention that his character is not good at expressing this, he has always hoped that he can play happily, and it is best to be with his good friend Gu Fei. 、

"Noah, I want to hear what you really think in your heart, 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."

Noah was obviously 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 five years for a center forward to become a rookie to really mature, and this is your third year, the team has found them, and you have a great opportunity to learn, and I believe that with your ability, you can learn a lot from them, and if you don't want to wait on the bench for a limited amount of time every game, you just say to Nell that you want to leave, but for personal reasons, I want you to stay. Gu Fei looked straight at Noah.

"Well, I'll think about it."

The next day, Noah let his agent dismiss the idea of transferring, and in training he was like a child 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.

Gu Fei stood outside the three-point line on the left side, received O'Neal's pass, and looked at O'Neal on the inside, the man who had ruled the league for many years showed a smile, 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." Gu 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 Gu Fei again, Gu Fei unceremoniously caught the ball and threw it, and the basketball was accurately drilled into the basket again.

"Gu, three points, an assist from Shaquille, Shaquille 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. Andre Miller laughed and got involved.

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 preseason game, and the Clippers will welcome 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.

Gu Fei: The leader core of the Clippers, with super individual scoring ability, the NBA's first three-point player, an All-Star player, his running position and three-point are still unsolvable, Gu Fei last season has shown his ability on the defensive end, his defense and offense will become more mature in the new season, what will I expect Lin Gu's data to be in the new season? Where is his progress? Based on the data of the previous two seasons, I expect Gu Fei's average data in the new season to be 27 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.

Rasheed Wallace: Roaring Tianzun, one of the four 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 in the company of Gu Fei, Jr-Smith and other three-point masters, will learn more? 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 bit in the new season, why? Because Gu will be involved in more organizational offenses, 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 to Magic, who contributed 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 player on the defensive end, 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 lineup enough to form two groups of starters, the Clippers will encounter a serious practical problem, that is, how to allocate the playing time of the players, as well as the mentality of young players, their opportunities With the arrival of veterans, their opportunities will undoubtedly become less, not every young person is willing to wait, especially Joakim Noah, the league's recognized potential center, played well in his rookie season, but his playing time in the new season will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and the arrival of Odom has made the guard have a lot less opportunities, It all takes the Clippers to work on.

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

This op-ed analyzes just right, Mike Dunleavy and Nell Olshu do have happy troubles.

In the first game of the preseason against the Hawks, the Clippers sent Tyson Chandler, Rasheed Wallace, Artest, Gu Fei, Andre. Miller's five-man starting lineup, then O'Neal, Noah, Odom, Jr-Smith, and Chalmers formed a second lineup with five straight up and five downs, and then practiced with 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 games, but the four games they lost were all within 10 points, and the strength of the team's roster made Mike Dunleavy's rotation 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 away to face a formidable opponent San Antonio Spurs, one of the protagonists of the offseason arms race, like the Los Angeles Clippers, Richard Jefferson, a quasi-All-Star small forward, did not integrate into the team in the preseason, and this game is also one of the three openers of the new season.

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

The matchup between Los Angeles and San Antonio is equal to the matchup between the Spurs and the Lakers in the past decade, and the game between them is undoubtedly the top matchup, and the rapid rise of the Clippers has made the matchup between Los Angeles and San Antonio no longer exclusive to the Lakers and Spurs, and the Spurs and Clippers in the offseason transfer market are undoubtedly the best among them.

The addition of Richard Jefferson, a quasi-All-Star small forward, has undoubtedly made the Spurs' lineup stronger on paper, but they didn't perform well in the preseason, Jefferson looks a little incompatible with Popovich's Spurs, and the Clippers on the other side are also in the throes of adjusting the new lineup, but even if this game still attracts the attention of the whole United States, not only because this is the opening game of the new season, but also because it has brought countless fans a classic.

Rasheed Wallace, who once played a top forward duel with Duncan during the Trail Blazers and Pistons, played against Duncan again, and the two big forwards with different styles both performed their own mastery to the extreme in the duel!

Now that the roaring Tianzun has reached the end of his career, and the stone Buddha has also shown his old state, they are all getting old, and the duel between them is undoubtedly decreasing again and again, and when they are completely old, they want to find such a top power forward in the future.

"The game is on, it's what I think is the pinnacle matchup of the new season, the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Clippers, they have an outrageous roster on their books, and I bet this year's Western Conference championship will be born between the Lakers, the Clippers, and the Spurs."

"Charles, why don't you say that the championship was born among their three teams, and it is not a good answer for you to list all of the teams that are 100% competitive in the West, I think this year's Western Conference Finals will be played between the Clippers and the Spurs, so I think this game is a preview of this year's Western Conference Finals." Kenny Smith started the new season by tearing down Barkley's table.

"Why not the Lakers and the Spurs or the Lakers and the Clippers? Of course, I think the Clippers will lock up a Western Conference Finals spot and then a championship anyway. Barkley continued his Clippers honey.

"Obviously, the Clippers, who were first in the West last season, have become stronger in the new season, and there is no reason why they will fall to the second place in the West, I think the Clippers will still be the best choice for the first place in the West and even the first in the league in the new season, and the Lakers and the Clippers are in a division According to the ranking rules, the Lakers are best destined to be in fourth, which means that they will meet in the Western Conference semifinals, and the Clippers who have lost to the Lakers for two consecutive years I don't think they will lose for the third time, not to mention that they have Lamar, Shaquille, and Rashid in the new season, So I also agree that this game is a preview of the Western Conference semifinals. Rejay Miller on the other side said with a smile.

At half past seven o'clock in the United States Western time, the NBA's 2009-2010 regular season opener finally began in anticipation.

Tyson Chandler, Rasheed Wallace, Ron Artest, Gu Fei, Andre Miller are the Clippers' starting five for the new season.

The Spurs, on the other hand, had Oberto, Tim Duncan, Richard Jefferson, Roger Mason and Tony Parker, and the Argentine Knife sat on the bench as always.

Popovich didn't expect the big shark O'Neill to sit on the bench, but as an experienced coach, Popovich immediately made a temporary simple arrangement for the players on the field.

"We need to win!"

"We need champions!"

Everyone on the Clippers folded their hands together and shouted in unison.

"Wow, what did we hear, the Clippers directly shouted their goals, this is an exact direction to work towards, but few teams shouted so directly, this year's Clippers have a lot of self-confidence, and it is true that except for the championship, I think any kind of achievement is a failure for them." Kenny Smith commented on hearing the Clippers' pre-game slogan.

With a whistle, the game finally started!

Tyson Chandler narrowly wins over Stone, Duncan and toggles the ball to Andre Miller!

The new season has officially begun.

Miller steadily controlled the ball and advanced to the outside of the three-point line, Gu Fei began to parade back and forth from the three-point line to the inside, and suddenly received a pass from Andre Miller after accelerating to get rid of his main defender, Richard Jefferson, without any hesitation, Gu Fei went directly to Duncan.

And Rashid Wallace slipped out of the outside line, and when Gu Fei deceived Duncan, he suddenly put away the ball that he had clearly shot, and looked back at the moon directly.

Rashid Wallace's tall figure was like a lighthouse, Gu Fei easily spotted Wallace and quickly passed the ball over.

Catching, aiming, and shooting, Wallace's job was fairly simple, with his signature straight-arm shot and bonus seven-foot height allowing him to ignore Jefferson, who was rushing to make up the defense.

The basketball quickly arced through the air and drilled into the hoop.

With a three-point shot, Wallace opened the scoring and scored his first shot of the new season.

"Beautiful, this tactic is very simple and clear, but very practical, is it really a relationship with the Clippers' three-pointers, Rashid's shot obviously feels a lot softer than before." Reggie Miller looked at the celebratory Wallace and said, and this is the case, Wallace further improved his three-point shooting with the help of Gu Fei and others, and it was obviously much more accurate than before in training, and there is no doubt that Wallace's three-point shot is also one of the important weapons of the Clippers to attack the opponent's defense.

Duncan, who has been fighting against Wallace for more than ten years, ran to the front court with a blank face, Parker, a high-end French sports car, looked very active in front of Eva, the rhythm of the dribble was jaw-dropping, and a sudden change of direction threw Andre Miller out of an open space and hoisted the ball to Duncan on the inside.

Wallace was all too familiar with Duncan, holding his right hand high and his left hand against Duncan to defend.

As if to return the ball to Wallace, Duncan had no intention of passing the ball, and after carrying Wallace a few times, he turned and jumped out.

Although Wallace had sealed it, it still couldn't stop Duncan's goal, and the basketball hit the board and then fell to the basket's signature Duncan board.

At the beginning of 2:3, the two veterans each gave the first goal to their own team.

Switching offense and defense, Richard Jefferson still stood in front of Gu Fei, Gu Fei couldn't help but think of the scene when he first met Jefferson, and remembered that he was very miserably defended in the first half, and then adjusted in the second half to complete the first breakthrough with the ball in his career, that scene Gu Fei will never forget for the rest of his life, it was a huge breakthrough in Gu Fei's career, and now he has had many confrontations with Jefferson and has long lost his original immaturity.

Looking at Jefferson, whose defensive position was completely open, Gu Fei's desire to attack rose in his heart.

"Andrey!" After shouting at Miller, Gu Fei did not stop in place, but ran towards Miller, and after a near-hand-to-hand pass, Gu Fei stopped to face Jefferson's defense.

The triple threat, the left foot poked half a step to Jefferson's right side, and did not change Jefferson's defensive focus, still staying at a good distance, for Jefferson's position with the Spurs was destined to be the lowest since his career rookie season, where he had to defend more to make up for Bruce Bowen's defensive void, and on the offensive end he needed to take limited opportunities, but in the preseason and the first few games of the regular season he did a terrible job on offense, and defense became the only thing he could handle.

Gu Fei slapped the ball with his right hand, and the basketball hit the ground through the crotch to the left hand, and at the same time, the basketball with his right foot passed through the crotch and down to the right hand again, and the whole person accelerated towards Jefferson's right side. When Jefferson, who reacted, tried to block Gu Fei's breakthrough after a retreat and sliding step. Gu Fei made another move, a reverse impact accompanied by full speed, and Jefferson was quickly left behind, not choosing to shoot but choosing to impact the basket again.

Oberto, another Argentine starting center of the Spurs, saw Gu Fei rushing in, and immediately threw away his own defense, Tyson Chandler, to meet him.

However, Oberto only took half a step before landing on his heels, his hands on his waist and abdomen, and the standard offensive foul preparation.

And Gu Fei didn't seem to care, which made Oberto a little excited in his heart, he was ready for everything, as long as Gu Fei came over, his ass would not hesitate to hit the floor.

Gu Fei jumped, but just when Oberto was expecting Gu Fei to hit him, he was surprised to find that Gu Fei had completed a 360-degree turn in the air.

The whole rotation looks not difficult at all, and it is as natural as flowing water.

When Gu Fei turned around and faced the basket, Oberto came over and hurriedly stretched out his hand.

Syllable!

Playing on the basketball was undoubtedly out of reach for Oberto at the moment, so he slapped it on his arm.

The referee's whistle blew as soon as it came.

Gu Fei's body center of gravity was lost with Oberto's thug foul, and Gu Fei still stubbornly pushed the ball out when Gu Fei fell backwards.

'It was a criminal foul, not that the foul was too bad, but that Oberto ruined a great artistic goal, and to destroy such a goal was a blatant crime. Charles Barkley's voice was described as howling, as if Oberto had done something furious and angry.

This made Kenny Smith and Ray Miller blush, both of whom always felt like they would be put on a notch with Barkley.

Perhaps God heard Barkley's anger, and the ball that Gu Fei forcibly threw bounced off the rebound and fell into the basket, while Gu Fei slid backwards more than two meters after close contact with the floor.

“yes！”

Gu Fei clenched his fists, he was also very happy for such a lucky ball.

Free throws are a very simple thing for Gu Fei, who topped the list last season with a 98.7 free throw shooting percentage, and made easy free throws with catch-and-shoot shots.

"Well done, God can't bear to see such a perfect goal disappear, it turns out that Oberto's criminal behavior was eventually reduced to a touch of color to make the goal more ornamental, and perhaps Oberto's presence should be thanked." Buckley's sharp words did not match his appearance at all.

"Charles, your words became so fast, just now you were yelling that you wanted to kill Oberto." Rejay Miller interrupted Barkley's feel-good ego with a laugh.

Gu Fei's state also made the Clippers fans feel a lot more relaxed, although the current Clippers lineup has become strong enough, they still subconsciously think that Gu Fei is the most important one for this team.

Although Gu Fei's goal is beautiful and will be a morale blow for other teams, for the mature San Antonio Spurs, such a goal still happened in the opening game and did not have much impact at all, and the Spurs still moved forward according to their own inherent rhythm.

Tony Parker quickly pushed forward under the watchful eye of his lover Eva, and Andre Miller's speed was incomparable to Parker's, and he could only seek his strong body to interfere with Parker as much as possible.

Duncan pulled a high position to cover the sports car and drilled directly into the inside, the signature throwing shot, the basketball crossed Tyson Chandler's finger and fell into the basket, looking at Parker's shooting Gu Fei shrugged helplessly, throwing is an offensive means he has trained more this summer, and throwing is a necessary offensive method for guards, but in the first two seasons Gu Fei did not show anything in throwing, more relying on his own three-point and speed to tear up the defense, In the face of tall interior defense, more often than not, he chooses to pass the ball or score the ball with his physical fitness, and a player's physical fitness cannot remain the same throughout his career, looking at the current "answer" and the "answer" ten years ago, Gu Fei feels more and more that it is necessary to develop more offensive means, Gu Fei does not want to live a miserable bench career at the end of his career.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of the two teams is very methodical, and they do not blindly seek speed or positional warfare, but a combination of the two, both are trying to pull each other into their own offensive and defensive rhythm, just like two top martial arts masters are generally trying their best to let each other fall into their own moves, and the game came to the first substitution time.

Mike Dunleavy waved his hand and the big sharks, who had ravaged the league for years, stood up from the bench, and when O'Neal took off his training jersey to reveal a big No. 34, Popovich on the other side also made adjustments, and former All-Star McDyce got up from the bench.

"It's really an exciting moment, the big shark is coming, but I don't know if this big shark is old and toothless or still murderous?" Kenny Smith looked at the sidelines expectantly.

"The Clippers didn't run in well in the preseason, Shaq didn't seem to be able to match with Rashid, and the team's tempo was slowed down when Shaq was on the court, which was a problem that the Clippers didn't solve in the preseason. For the Clippers to go further and more consistently, these issues must be addressed. Rejay Miller analyzed the Clippers' problems, and at this time, Gu Fei hit a gambling break to knock the ball out of bounds, and the referee immediately blew the whistle to signal the substitutes to come on.

"Oh, Shaq is not replacing Tyson, but Rashid, can this change of formation solve the problem of incongruity on the inside? Tyson is a center and Shaq will definitely switch to power forward after he comes on the court, can Tyson adapt to such a position? ”

Such doubts are also the doubts of many Clippers fans.

"Shaq, welcome!" Gu Fei thumped his chest at O'Neill and stretched out his fist.

O'Neill also thumped his chest and stretched out his fist, "I'm here to win." O'Neill's grin showed a row of white teeth.

Tony Parker has played well so far, has delivered 8 points and 4 assists, received the ball outside the three-point line and looked at Duncan who looked inside, and immediately hung high, the arc of the ball was just right, Duncan comfortably caught the pass, and his back was firmly leaning on O'Neal's body.

Tim Duncan is undoubtedly the top three power forwards in league history, but there are still a lot of people who are willing to put Duncan in the center position, and the fact is that Duncan has done too much work as a center, and Duncan has no contempt for his back and O'Neal, even if this shark is no longer the prehistoric giant shark seven or eight years ago, and it is as careful as the confrontation seven or eight years ago.

Solid footsteps, a turn, a big stride, cut directly into the inside line, a hook hand.

Not to mention that O'Neal, who is now aging, is powerless for such a ball, even if the young O'Neal is powerless in the face of a hook like Duncan, such a short distance is not enough for him to jump and complete the block.

O'Neal, who is the main defender of Duncan, can't do it, it doesn't mean that the person who assists in defense can't either.

"Tim, steady Tim ......" Kenny Smith's voice came to an abrupt halt.

"Incredible cap, Tyson appeared in the air." Rejay Miller's voice immediately became the clearest one.

"Damn it! How did that guy end up there. Many fans at the scene complained in unison.

The basketball was fanned out like a cannonball by Tyson Chandler and flew straight outside the three-point line.

Such a situation was something that no one expected, and Gu Fei was the first to react when everyone didn't expect it, watching the basketball flying towards the three-point line and immediately chasing after the ball.

Tony Parker was closest to the basketball landing point, and he reacted immediately when he saw Gu Fei chasing after the landing point.

Parker, whose speed can enter the top five in the league rankings, and Gu Fei started a unique speed battle.

Looking at the basketball bouncing on the floor and Parker a little in front of him, Gu Fei gritted his teeth and his speed increased again, and when he was still more than two meters away from the basketball, the whole person fell to the ground and slid towards the ball.

Gu Fei's recklessness was obviously something Parker didn't expect, and when he reacted, Gu Fei on the floor had already held the ball firmly in his arms, and his elbows were fully open to demonstrate to Parker who was trying to grab the ball.

And then Ron Artest chased after him with a bully step, Gu Fei immediately sent it with both hands, and the basketball was passed to Artest's hands in the form of a boccia, and Parker immediately threw away Gu Fei on the floor and pounced on Artest.

A carp was stiffened, Gu Fei turned over from the floor, and Artest and Gu Fei formed an excellent opportunity for two to one.

In the end, Parker reluctantly accepted the fact that the defense failed, and Artest scored an easy layup.

After several consecutive offensive and defensive transitions, and the time came to the last 30 seconds of the first quarter, Parker once again handed the ball into Duncan's hands, and the Argentine demon knife Ginobili and Parker, who replaced Roger Mason, began to cross the position in the high post and tried to involve the Clippers' defense as much as possible.

In the face of O'Neal, Duncan is still steady and steady, not in a hurry.

Pressing the tail of twenty-four seconds of offensive time, Duncan turned around against O'Neal's power and shot directly, looking at the arc of the basketball, another signature Duncan board is about to be born.

"Damn, why is that guy there again." With the exclamations of the fans, Tyson Chandler once again fanned the ball like a volleyball smash, and at the same time the whistle of the 24-second offensive time blew.

Mike Dunleavy off the court with Tyson Chandler's blocking ability lit up, Tyson Chandler's ability to help defend is much stronger than his main defensive ability, and these two blocks Duncan in these few minutes are undoubtedly the perfect embodiment of his excellent defense ability.

With six seconds left before the end of the first quarter, which was enough time to complete a quick offense, Mike Dunleavy did not hesitate to use a short timeout in exchange for a chance to serve.

"Over to Gu" Mike Dunleavy is exceptionally simple.

"No problem!" Gu looked at his teammates, and his tone was full of confidence.

"Keeping an eye on Gu is 99 percent likely to be Gu's last ball, and we need to keep an eye on him. Tim, you come down and rest first......" Bobo made the final defensive set-up on the bench.

The referee handed the ball to Noah on the sideline, and the Clippers kept four players with three-point ability, Rasheed Wallace, J.R. Smith, Artest and Gu Fei, but even so, everyone's idea was that Gu Fei would make the final shot.

At the sound of the whistle, Noah immediately raised the ball with both hands, and in front of him, Bonner was waving his arms vigorously to interfere with Noah's service vision.

Even so, Gu Fei still ran out of the catch opportunity with his unique running position and the cover of his teammates.

When Ginobili pounced, Gu Fei changed direction and accelerated directly, leaving the pounced Ginobili behind, and the basketball seemed to be integrated with Gu Fei, and the continuous seductive dribbling threw Bogans who was making up for the defense aside, Gu Fei was still a meter away from the three-point line, but he didn't choose to go further and feel that he should jump up and shoot this ball, Gu Fei didn't know where this feeling came from, like an instinct.

Jumping, staying in the air, shooting, the basketball flew to the highest point when the whistle blew at the end of the first quarter, and everyone watched the basketball in the air until it fell into the net.

"Well done! I don't need to be too rich in words, I think the easiest is the best for Gu's shooting, another whistle shot, it seems that the key ball is never a problem for Gu, just like an ordinary free throw, born with a big heart. Barkley was still as excited as he was seeing Gu Fei hit the whistle for the first time.

"Yes, we don't deny that, but I see the Clippers new, Tyson's presence at the forward position is a great arrangement, of course, I think it is better to play with Shaq, and Shaq is strong enough to make any player have an impact when he shoots, so that Tyson can take the opportunity." Rejay Miller's analysis is good, exactly the same as Mike Dunleavy's latest idea. (To be continued.) )
