Chapter 112: Charlotte Hornets

"Okay, M, have you been busy lately?"

"It's alright, what about you?"

"It's a bit busy, so I haven't been online for the past few days. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Oh? Did you just go live? ”

"yes, you just turned on your phone before you sent me a message, and now you're in the rehearsal seat in SMtown, and it's pitch black next to you, so boring."

Jiang Haoran secretly wondered how could it be such a coincidence, this is also why he just opened Kakatalk, and he didn't have time to take his mobile phone because of Xia Yan's matter a few days ago, is this the so-called fate?

"Oh? It's pitch black for me, too, but it's dark at night. ”

"The spotlight above my head is like a starry sky, and there is light over there?"

"Do you want me to answer normally or literary?"

"Normal answer."

"I can't see it."

"Let's answer literary and artistic."

"Don't fall in love with me again."

"Nope! Say good night to me, I'll rest too, M. Krystal has a hint of anticipation for Jiang Haoran's answer, and she, a fan, can always surprise her.

"Okay." Jiang Haoran looked at the soft moonlight, and suddenly his thoughts surged.

"Among the stars scattered in the firmament, which one shines the most? No matter how much you ask, no one will be able to answer them. But when I met you one day and met your gaze, I seemed to have my own answer. Good night, Zheng Xiujing. The vast stars in your eyes are the world I want to travel around the most. ”

"You'll sleep later, you've seen me?" Xiao Jing looked very seriously, and immediately found out that this is a text that can only be written by seeing his own eyes, right? Otherwise, it is impossible to say that you have found your own answer.

"Guess." Jiang Haoran was very calm because he didn't come face to face with the crystal.

"You've definitely come to see me!" Xiao Jing watched it again, because in her heart, she also had such a feeling when she looked at a person, and she also had this touching feeling described by her! But she shook her head anyway, it couldn't be the same person.

"Have you seen it in the photo?"

"Yes, forget it, thank you for the text you wrote me, I love it, good-night, M."

“good-night。”

With the good night of Xiao Crystal, Jiang Haoran soon fell asleep, Jin Xiayan, who had just finished being busy, came out to pour a drink, and when she saw Jiang Haoran sleeping with her mobile phone, she couldn't help but smile and help him take the mobile phone down and put it next to him.

"Huh, miracle?"

……

On Nov. 8, the Spurs will host the Charlotte Hornets.

The Spurs, who haven't played a training match for a long time, have trained closely for four sets of offensive tactics in the morning, and Jiang Haoran, who has strengthened his body, has a feeling of returning as a king, and is more adaptable to the four offensive systems.

Although there was no strength training, the twelve players did not stop worrying all morning, because twelve metal sponge plates were erected in the corner of the training hall at some point, which made them always worry about whether there would be a metal plate strength training all of a sudden.

After the end of training, Popovich made a decision that scared newcomers such as Jiang Haoran and Simmons again.

"Manuginobili takes turns to rest, I was too tired to go to Washington the day before yesterday, old fellow, you need to rest."

"Okay." Ginobili accepted it calmly.

Aldridge couldn't help but admire Popovich's courage, and he continued to rest in the last game when the rotation was questioned, and they were all people on the back line, didn't this tell the opponent that our weakness is weak again?

This also means that Jiang Haoran and Mills will take on greater responsibility, and the best sixth man's quantile Ginobili will be rested, so Jiang Haoran's playing time will definitely increase, is this to prove to the league that the guard line of the Holy City is not weak or the willfulness of the old man Bobo?

The news reached the ears of the reporters in the afternoon, and there was an immediate uproar, and the news of Ginobili's rotation was put on the website.

Jiang Haoran rested for four days, Tencent Sports Liu Xuefei, Sports Express Network Xudong and other Asian reporters all had doubts about his state, the first game of more than two days off for professional players will definitely not be much better, and now he has taken turns to rest Ginobili in the key quarterback position, isn't this digging a hole for himself?

There is another big highlight before the game, that is, the matchup of Asian blood, what kind of sparks will Lin Madia, who has already achieved fame, spark against Jiang Haoran, who is also the first substitute in the guard line?

And Seoul takes this game more seriously, because why? Because they raised the criticality of this game to the level of school and school, Jeremy Lin, the only basketball team player from Harvard University, the No. 1 university in the United States, VS Kang Haoran, the only basketball team player from Seoul National University, the No. 1 university in South Korea, to join the NBA, this is no longer a duel between just yellow people.

Xiao Cui, who hadn't seen Jiang Haoran's game for four days, set up a projector and broadcast it live on the main square.

The game was about to start, and Jiang Haoran had the opportunity to shoot and make layups for the first time in the warm-up, so he put all his practice on two-point shooting.

This shot made Huang Ama Green frown, was the shooting rate so low during the warm-up?

"Don't worry, I rarely get hits." Jiang Haoran explained with a smile.

He looked at the Hornets' dugout, where owner Michael Jordan wasn't there and head coach Steve Clifford was talking to an assistant coach.

Steve Clifford is a former assistant coach to Jeff Van Gundy who joined the Magic coaching staff in June 2007. In the four seasons since he joined, the Magic have made the playoffs.

Clifford sees the Van Gundy brothers as his mentor, and he's also aiming to be the second to be Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau. Clifford is also known for his defensive focus, having coached teams that have ranked in the top 10 in the league for defensive prowess over the past four seasons.

And from this year's player in and out, you can see the style of Steve Clifford as a coach.

The draft drafted Frank Kaminsky with the ninth pick in the first round and signed free agents Hansbro, Jeremy Lin, Aaron Harris, and Elliott Williams.

Looking at the trades, the Trail Blazers were traded for outside defensive stalwart Nicholas Batum, the Clippers were traded for Spencer Hawes, Jerry Milan was traded for the Thunder, Matt Barnes was traded for the Clippers, and Luke Ridno was traded for the Grizzlies.

This player change is obvious, coupled with the recent incident of Xiao Mo leaving the Hornets for the Cavaliers, the Hornets basically use sixty percent of the salary cap on defensive players, which is almost inconceivable in other teams, in today's league where offense is king, how far can a team composed of such a defensive lineup go?
