On August 5, 2016, the Rio Olympics did not attract the attention of Russian fans.

With Durant's departure, more and more critics are starting to think that the Thunder will be sold to other cities in the new season.

With no star players, no big broadcast contracts, and after two championships, the team seems to be breaking up this year.

The accidental car accident of the major shareholder became the fuse of the moving incident, and after having the championship, the pursuit of profit maximization is the idea of most shareholders.

In this case, on the morning of the 5th, in the press conference hall of the Chesapeake Energy Arena, Presti attended the press conference with the turtle turtle and officially announced that the two parties had reached an early contract renewal agreement!

Without Li Ze, without Durant, only Yin Baka, and veteran captain Nick Collison are left in the championship lineup that year.

The turtle turtle at the press conference looked very calm, and in front of the media in the audience, he also said a sentence that made the eyes of Russian city fans red:

"Loyalty is my first choice!"

After the press conference, the fans in the city were boiling, the sky was blue, and the windows were full of Westbrook.

The team's only superstar is left, and as long as the results are okay next season, the Thunder will not leave the city.

Even if Durant kills all sides in the Olympics, Russian city fans no longer pay attention to him, and Turtle Turtle has become a city hero!

As the Olympics progressed, Lakers fans were sour again.

In mid-July, the team signed Mozgov for 4 years and 64 million, and Lakers fans happily discussed how the big center could play in the new season.

Without Kobe Bryant, talented players have joined the team for two consecutive years, and Lakers fans have great hopes for the new season, but no matter how you look at it, the Clippers are invincible.

What makes the Lakers in the same city feel helpless the most is that the Clippers have a strong lineup and the salary is not high!

Normally, there is usually some room for upside to ensure that the team's salary space is used effectively.

The Clippers' operation is textbook-level, with Lee Ze's salary rising sharply next year, and Paul George entering a contract year after 2.

As the league's salary cap continues to rise, the Clippers will certainly pay the luxury tax in the future, but not by too much.

Even if Jokic plays famous, the Clippers can calmly give a big contract, and only if Jaylen Brown also plays at the level of a superstar in the future, the maximum salary contract will make the Clippers' salary explode.

It can be expected that in the next 2 to 3 years, the Clippers will not have to worry about the super luxury tax, which means that the championship window is still there!

Similar to the situation of Lakers fans, Cleveland fans are also waiting for LeBron James to complete a contract extension.

After the Finals, the Cavaliers officially stated that they intended to offer LeBron James a five-year, $209 million contract with a maximum salary.

The Cavaliers' role players were also poached by other teams in the East, and the Bucks offered Dellavidova a four-year, $38 million contract, poaching the team's backup point guard.

In order to continue to keep LeBron James, the Cavaliers gave J.R. Smith a four-year, $57 million contract!

Perhaps sensing the expectations of Cleveland fans, LeBron James finally did not choose a long-term contract, but signed a three-year, $100 million contract extension, with a player option for the third year.

On August 12th, the Cavaliers officially announced that the Chosen One will still stay in Cleveland next season, and the fans are boiling, and hometown basketball continues!

At the press conference, LeBron James seemed to have recovered from the loss.

The most frequently asked question on the scene is to ask how the Cavaliers will attack the championship next season, and when I think of this question, LeBron James is a little broken...

The lineups of the Warriors and Clippers are so outrageous that James even wants to report the two teams for violations, is there any reason?

"There will be some new faces in the team for the new season, and we need to continue to grind in the lineup, no matter what the opponent is, I believe the Cavaliers still have a chance to win the championship!"

"You know, there's always extra motivation to fight for my hometown and I'm ready for it! The Cavaliers will make a comeback! ”

LeBron James's confident answer, but the sports media on the scene didn't buy it, leaving aside the Clippers, how can the Cavaliers match the Warriors' lineup alone?

73 wins is no joke, even if the Warriors are a regular season team, on the surface, they are far superior to the Cavaliers.

"LeBron, what do you think of the current lineup between the Clippers and the Warriors, and does the Cavaliers still have a chance to compete?"

TNT's reporter didn't open the pot, LeBron James was not in a beautiful mood when he heard such a question:

"Basketball belongs to five people, and star players can't win the championship, as for the strength of the opponent, the exact conclusion will be drawn after the hand."

Hearing such an answer, the sports media at the scene looked strange.

Judging from past experience, the Heat and Cavaliers, who are stacked with stars, did not win the championship, but on the contrary, the Thunder and Clippers relied on the ability of their stars, one won 2 consecutive championships, and the other won 4 consecutive championships...

seemed to notice that his answer was a little embarrassing, LeBron James didn't speak more, but cursed in his heart:

"Hell, a super team!"

...

On August 18th, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team ended the game with the Spanish team, and Li Ze also started the fishing mode.

In this Olympic Games, the scoring of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team is very stable, Li Ze contributed an average of 33.8 points per game, and the United Arab Emirates averaged 21.6 points per game.

But the game is fighting, the rotation is getting shorter and shorter, and there will be a lot of opportunities to wrap Li Ze, but the outside line can't be thrown in.

This is also the current embarrassment of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team, under the high-intensity confrontation, several rounds in a row will bring a huge load to the heart and lungs.

Not every player can maintain accurate outside shooting in high-intensity matchups.

Just like in this year's playoffs, the Warriors and Cavaliers have exploded in one or two three-point shots, and the Clippers have frequently made 7 of 24...

Coach Gong Luming was embarrassed to find that in exchange, it was Li Ze and the United Arab Emirates who had the most accurate three-point shots, and the team's outside projection level was even inferior to a big man like the United Arab Emirates.

Obviously, the team's performance can be greatly improved by just one breath, but unfortunately, once the opponent is crazy about it, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team will be easy to stop.

This gap with the top teams is not something that can be equaled overnight, and it is already heaven to win France and Serbia in the group stage.

On the night of August 21, Amerika finally defeated Serbia easily, and Durant scored 30 points in a single game.

The Rio Olympics have officially come to an end, and for Celestial Empire fans, the closing ceremony doesn't matter!

After the familiar scoring link, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team finally achieved a breakthrough in this Olympic Games and won the 6th place.

This is the best record in the history of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team, but the fans are still scolding the host for not being a good person.

"Look at the results of the teams in Group A, Amerika won the gold medal, Serbia won the silver medal, and the Australian team almost overthrew Spain and finished fourth, a proper group of death!"

"It's all to blame on the group, if there is no Amika, maybe I can finish 5th in the end, and lose by a big score, it's terrible."

"After two overtimes, 1 point lost, Australia almost won, Ingles is really not a soy sauce, Serbia's Jokic is also powerful, and the Clippers' 15-core is worthy of its name!"

"Teammate CBA, as long as you can shoot at the level of Australia on the outside, win against Spain, there is no problem at all."

"It's a shame that we're on the perimeter like that, and we're already the best players."

"The GOAT can't let his teammates hit open shots, in 2019, we have become the hosts, can we play against them!"

“...”

Compared to the 8th place in the London Olympics, the 6th place in the Rio Olympics was enough to make a difference, and the members of the delegation were very happy, and this year's world-class party was very successful.

After the Rio Olympics, Li Ze still stayed in Brazil, Shakira came to Rio in mid-August, the Spanish-speaking market, and the blonde sister had more influence.

Since confirming that her baby son is indeed growing up healthy, Shakira has finally escaped from the state of being pregnant and stupid for three years.

After the closing ceremony, Li Ze left the delegation and stayed with his blonde sister to a hotel in São Paulo.

In 2016, streaming music channels also changed a lot.

In March this year, Spotify received $1 billion in debt financing from clients of Texas Pacific Group (TPG), the largest equity investment company in the United States, Dragoneer Investment Group, hedge fund and Goldman Sachs.

is about to IPO, the era of savage growth is coming to an end, and the platform also has a tendency to squeeze singers and users.

Google Music Play has the support of YouTube, and the traffic is huge, although everyone has been complaining about and squeezing creators, but this year is also a constant action.

YouTube invested $60 million in a music talent program called "Foundry", and it is clear that the platform will also support its own musicians.

Of course, as a global platform, it is expected that Google Music Play will continue to increase copyright acquisitions this year and break into the Latin and Spanish markets.

Li Ze and Shakira have been paying attention to the financing of the music industry, and unlike Taylor's chick, the blonde sister is more sensible, and if she wants to make money, she can't go against the market.

Shakira, who has not worked for more than two years, does not seem to have changed at all, and I don't know if it is the result of collecting yang and supplementing yin, or the blessing of technology and genes, this goblin's physical state is no different from when they first met.

The blonde sister with her hair coiled, dressed coolly, and wearing purple sports shorts looked at the email on the notebook intently, took the red wine handed over by Li Ze, and immediately smiled:

"In two days, we went to a few parties together, all of them are veteran music producers, and if they want to make money, they can't do it alone."

Li Ze doesn't care about giving out some profits, the game of big fish eating small fish is getting more and more serious, and independent record companies want to live well, so they naturally have to compromise:

"It seems that Sony Music is also about to transform, and physical records really can't be sold."

Shakira doesn't care about this, she has already eaten the dividends, but the decline in streaming income in recent years has made the blonde sister a little heartbroken:

"I invested in some headphone brands back then, and now I must have made a lot of money, and I don't know what it will become in the future, and the fashion trends every year are becoming more and more incomprehensible."

Li Ze has a general idea, but it's not the type of music he likes:

"Electronic music, rap, what else can there be, in Ameika, music development is also closely related to social trends, history is a circle, and it should be rap's turn..."

Knowing that Li Ze has never liked rap very much, the blonde sister immediately laughed, and then teased:

"Isn't it going to be impossible to make money in the future, and we have to compromise for the market?"

Li Ze shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking, but pouted his lips to the blonde sister, indicating that he was indifferent to the fashion trend, and he couldn't help but complain silently in his heart:

"It's really not going to work, the electricity is over! Make money, don't shudder..."

...

On August 23, the Clippers did not give up on the new players, and David West reluctantly accepted the Warriors' invitation after more than a month of struggle.

At the end of his career, veterans only wanted to compete for championships, and Grant Hill has completely become Li Zechui since he got the ring with the Clippers.

NBA TV just recently launched a show, IUFF, and Grant Hill became the host of the show.

Partnering with him is the gold-medal beauty anchor Christine Melissa Lydlo, who has been popular in recent years.

He has worked as a sideline reporter for TNT and as a sports presenter.

Ledlow, who is 1.8 meters tall, once won third place in a Florida beauty pageant, and is a typical Amelianka blonde girl.

The "IUFF" program is mainly to provide fans with gossip news on and off the court in the NBA, and help fans better understand the star players.

After the Clippers had a complete roster, Grant Hill also seized the opportunity to invite his old teammate Matt Barnes to frequently rub hot spots.

One of the two has retired, and the other has left the Clippers, and at this time, they appear to comment and talk about internal gossip, which will always attract the attention of fans.

The three chatted and talked about the Clippers' biggest opponent, and Grant Hill said with emotion at this time:

"Although the Warriors have added scum Pachuria, Javier McGee, and David West, I believe that the Clippers under Kayce are not inferior to each other at all."

"The Clippers have such a tall lineup, from the No. 1 to the No. 4 position, they are all forward players, they move fast, they can easily change defenses, I can't think of any team that can do something like that."

Barnes, who left the Clippers, agrees with this sentiment, and the veteran has begun to prepare for his retirement life after that, and has recently become a brainless Li Zechui:

"The Warriors won't be a match for the Clippers, they might win two or three games in the series, but when it comes to crunch time, Kayce will always step up!"

"There is no player in the league who wants to play against Kayce, as long as it is one-on-one, he can score easily, and what it means to shoot more than 6 percent, anyone who has played knows it!"

Lydlo blinked wide-eyed and suddenly asked a less relevant question:

"Doesn't anyone talk trash with Kayce? I've been following the Clippers game and I've never seen a player provoke Kayce. ”

Hearing this question, Grant Hill and Mar Tebarnes on the side all laughed:

"Provoking Kayce? This guy can average 40+ per game in the regular season, and you don't have to think about it to know the consequences of angering him, God, no one likes to watch their opponents go crazy and cut points on their heads. ”

Matt Barnes is already happy, and it's an interesting question, and he's even made up a lot of pictures in his head.

Grant Hill also added with a smile:

"As Matt said, Kayce is so strong, I've played in the league for many years and I've been through old-school basketball."

"If you want to provoke a superstar, the easiest way to do it is to lock him up on the defensive end or blow him up on the offensive end!"

"Just like no one likes to trash talk with Michael Jordan, a serious Michael will definitely blow up the opposing player."

"Kayce is different, no matter whether you provoke him or not, he will cut 40+ on your head, I can imagine the helplessness in the hearts of the players against him this season, God, it's horrible!"

Matt Barnes on the side laughed and said after making up a few pictures in his head:

"If there are really players who talk to Kayce and call for their teammates to help him defend, it's really fun."

Saying the most ruthless things, doing the most cowardly things, and making up for this clown-like provocation, Lydlo laughed along, and finally Grant Hill returned to the topic:

"After George joined the Clippers, the team's salary space is just over the poor man's line, and they have a chance to win another championship in the next two years."

"The Clippers have the potential to complete a six-game winning streak and I can't wait to see how they do in the new season!"

“...”

On the morning of August 24, the Clippers' official website updated the team's 15-man roster:

Defenders: Lee, Eric Gordon, Jaylen Brown, Malcolm Brogdon, Norman Powell, Pat Connaughton;

Forwards: Paul George, Tobias Harris, P.J. Tucker, Joe Ingles, Pascal Siakam, George Niang;

Centers: Nikola Jokic, Mason Plumlee, Kevon Looney.

At present, the salary of the Clippers is only 84.94 million US dollars, which is just over the poor line.

Even if Li Ze and Jokic get high salaries next year and role players get big contracts, the team can still keep the roster intact.

After all, the salary cap will go up, and the Clippers' salary explosion will probably wait until 2 years later.

Steve Ballmer was more than happy with the team's offseason operations.

was going to form a big three like Li Ze, Durant, and Paul George, but unfortunately, Durant chose the most difficult path, although the old man spent money, but did not pay the luxury tax, he always felt a little unhappy.

Fortunately, after some calculations, it was found that the team's future salary is likely to explode, and Steve Ballmer was satisfied.

In recent years, the team has made money, and after moving, it needs gimmicks, and the more star players the better, so as to attract fans to the stadium.

After the end of the Olympic Games, Li Ze's name was swiped in the Celestial Empire, and all kinds of chicken soup articles on the marketing account were thrown out desperately, and the People's Daily also sent praises:

"Rising from the trough, moving forward under pressure"

"The 6th place in the Rio Olympics, the best result in the history of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team, the spirit of fighting until the last moment, has won the respect of the world..."

Although Li Ze was not over-touted and more emphasis was placed on the collective, the fans didn't care about this, and after returning home on the 29th, Li Ze was almost overwhelmed by the crowd again.

It is rare to have a breakthrough in the big ball, and domestic sports officials are excited to prepare for the 2019 Basketball World Cup more actively.

...

After returning to Los Angeles at the end of August, Li Ze flew directly to Bozeman with Taylor, and he stayed in Montana until the end of September.

Li Ze played a little too much this year, the coaching staff felt sorry for Jin's thighs, and all the preseason games abroad were pushed off, and the training camp did not need Li Ze to report.

Paul George was so excited when he was in Rio that he couldn't help himself, and when he returned to Los Angeles and bought a house to settle down completely, he only felt that he was full of energy!

Fishing in the first round of the playoffs, although the body is still recovering from a major injury, Paul George still did not relax under the stimulation of the championship, and continued to train every day after returning.

The Clippers' newcomers are very good in the offseason, and Jaylen Brown is almost swept up in doubtful life, don't these guys enjoy life?

After playing the summer league, some new players have not stopped training daily, and water cooler guardians like Powell, Connaughton, and Rooney have finally seen the hope of coming out, how can they not play hard.

After all, championships can't be a salary, and getting a big contract is their primary goal at the moment.

On September 20, the Clippers opened their training camp, and the team's official Instagram also released training photos of the players.

Paul George is the most eye-catching, Clippers fans have praised it, and this year's season tickets are selling out exceptionally fast, and at the end of the day, fans still prefer star players.

Coach De Nagro is very satisfied with the state of the players, Jokic has lost weight again, played the Olympics, and also consumed a lot of white fat people.

After the simple tactical training session in the morning, Paul George didn't see Li Ze's figure, and asked with some curiosity:

"When Kayce is back in training camp, we should hone our tactics in pre-season."

Tucker, who has been with the Clippers for 4 years, is an old guy in the locker room this season, and when he heard the inquiry of the new Paul George, he said with a nonchalant face:

"Don't worry about Kayce, he can adapt to any tactic, every year in pre-season, he doesn't play much, but it only takes one or two games for him to fully adapt to the playing habits of his new teammates."

Jaylen Brown on the side heard a question mark on his face, is it really a robot playing?

Players who have been with the Clippers for a few years have long since adapted to the magic of Li Ze, and Kim Thigh knows his teammates' playing habits very well, and even the trio on the water cooler knows everything about it.

Paul George has not been able to train with Li Ze for two years due to a serious injury, and even now, he has not been able to fully adapt to his injured leg.

However, he believes that he will usher in a new career high in the new season, Gallinari can average 24 points per game, and Paul George feels that he will have no problem averaging 28 points per game!

"I really want to start early, I've been to Inglewood to see the new arena in the last few days, and that's been fantastic!"

Paul George began to think about the future again, and since coming to Los Angeles, he has received a lot of private messages from fans asking why he is not going to the Lakers.

For this question, he didn't bother to answer, what is the use of joining the Lakers? What about the big teams? Can he challenge for a championship next season?

Paul George understands the superiority of some Lakers fans very well, anyway, the Lakers are very good, but the actual action is to laugh after joining the Clippers...

Jaylen Brown, as this year's flower show, naturally has to be compared with Ingram on the list.

It just so happened that both of them were in Los Angeles, and the topic was already full, and before the new season began, the sports media here had already built momentum for the two.

It's just that the training camp is very involuted, Jaylen Brown feels that he wants to get the starting position, and he will probably have to wait for half a season, he is not Li Ze, and he can quickly adapt to the team's tactics:

"Is this a dynasty team? It's really different from what I imagined..."

On September 30, the media in Los Angeles finally saw Li Ze's figure.

This seems to be a sign that Li Ze may be in the preseason, and Clippers fans can't wait to see how it looks like when Li Ze plays with Paul George.

Back in Los Angeles, Li Ze has returned to full energy, and his fitness has never been a problem for him, but the large number of games has also made him mentally tired.

The playoffs and the Olympics made Li Ze completely digest the S+ functional drink, and every night he looked at the new badges and new attributes, and he also felt that he was going to heaven:

Achievement Badge [NBA Championship]: Level 6 (Mergetable)

The glory of the champion, the player's all attributes are increased by 6.25%, and the game experience is bonus.

Basic Attributes after Fusion:

Champion DNA – Sharp intuition in the face of high-intensity defense.

Additional Attributes after Fusion:

Leader's heart – Take it as your responsibility to lead the team to victory and boost the morale of the whole team.

Mr. Key – Boost your stats at key moments in the game.

XP bonus: 2 times.

won the 6th championship, and the additional attributes after fusion have not been experienced, but Li Ze silently calculated, and the badge experience bonus has come to an even more terrifying 64 times!

Counting the 1.5% bonus from the NBA championship's combination badge, its own attributes have increased by 7.75% this year.

Basic Attributes:

Speed: 90 (+7), Strength: 87 (+7), Stamina: 98 (+8), Bounce: 91 (+7), Defensive Agility: 92 (+7), Possession: 90 (+7),

Close range shots: 97 (+8), open mid-range shots: 95 (+7), open three-point shots: 94 (+7), free throws: 97 (+8).

Advanced Attributes:

Cut-in layup: 101, cut-in dunk: 101, dunk on the spot: 85,

Interfered mid-range shooting: 97, mid-range shooting on dribble: 98, interferenced three-point shooting: 96, three-point shooting after dribbling: 96,

Back Hook: 70, Back Back Jumper: 99, Dribble Speed: 93, Acceleration Ability: 96.

SS-Energy Drink: (Life Form Enhancement)

Ignoring the incomprehensible life form enhancement, Li Ze looked at the physical strength of 106 after the bonus, 105 at close range, 102 at mid-distance, and 101 in three-point shooting, and he also felt that he was likely to enter a non-human state.

With more than 100 stamina, he can stay hot throughout the game, and his close-range shooting of more than 100 has greatly improved his finishing ability under the basket!

The mid-range of more than 100 has comprehensively improved his strong shooting ability, and the three-point shooting of more than 100 is extremely much expected by Li Ze.

This season's stats have really improved a lot, and after a season of accumulation, he has also earned three new badges:

Achievement Badge [Hatchaser] :(can be fused)

In the chasing state, the physical attributes are slightly improved.

Achievement Badge [Dreadnought Terminator] :(Mergetable)

The commission converts the ability to force a layup.

Achievement Badge [Dodge Terminator] :(can be fused)

Improves a player's ability to avoid physical confrontation when impacting the basket.

After the Olympic Games, the above three badges have finally become purple and can be blended.

Li Ze glanced at the three emblems again, and finally integrated them all into the super badge.

Hopefully touched the purple-gold sun-like super badge, but the attributes still did not change:

Super Badge [Basketball Legend] :(can be fused)

Give a full bonus to basketball skills.

Li Ze sighed silently, he had already won 6 championships, but he was just a legend, he browsed his attributes again, and gave an evaluation in his heart:

"The dark matter version of the player attribute is not so strong, and I don't know where the end is? ...”

...

In the 2016 preseason, Celestial Empire fans were a little disappointed, because Li Ze and Paul George both participated in the Olympics, this year the Clippers did not have Celestial Empire.

After all, when playing abroad, everyone buys tickets to see superstars, and the Clippers coaching staff doesn't want to consume too much Li Ze and Paul George.

Li Ze is the player who has played the most games in the league this year, and Paul George is still recovering from a major injury.

The NBA league naturally understands the Clippers, there are not many superstars who play the full 82 regular season games, and it is perfectly fine to play less preseason games.

Although the Rockets selected Zhou Qi, in the 16~17 season, Zhou Qi still had to play in the XJ team.

However, this did not delay the Rockets from making money, and in this year's preseason, they flew to Shanghai again and continued to play against the Shanghai Sharks.

Chris Paul is very popular in the Celestial Empire, and under the influence of Li Ze, Chairman Cannon's small actions have become old-school and tough...

The Rockets also made additions in the offseason, adding Rian Anderson in response to the lack of outside shooting ability.

With the salary cap skyrocketing, 80 million US dollars in 4 years, Rockets fans are a little dumbfounded, Lane Anderson is worth so much money?

The bearded golfer also signed a four-year, $118 million max contract with the Rockets in the offseason, and his salary for the new season has also come to $26.54 million!

Coupled with Chris Paul's salary of 24.6 million US dollars this season, the Rockets can be regarded as a big three, after all, Lane Anderson's salary this year is also 18.74 million US dollars...

D'Antoni loves the Rockets' offensive space at the moment, and with the addition of Nene Hilario on the inside, the Rockets can play his favorite bombardment tactic!

While the roster may be tweaked after the All-Star break, Paul isn't happy with this offseason.

The team has not made any targeted reinforcements, and they still need a sixth man at the moment!

The bench lacks consistent scoring points, and the newly signed Pligioni and Gary Payton II are all soy sauce...

However, Paul is relieved that the bearded golfer did not push his ass in the offseason and honestly trained with him in Los Angeles.

Harden, who received the buff bonus of leaving Kardashian and fulfilled his childhood dream, finally began to retract and devote more energy to basketball.

Although the nightclub can't be stopped, without the big ass like Kardashian, Harden's condition is getting better and better with the naked eye.

No matter what the outside world thinks of the Rockets, Paul feels he still has a chance to win a championship.

At the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai, halfway through the game, the bearded golfer has already gotten a triple-double.

The game was really stress-free, and Anthony saw the team's problems and reduced the amount of time Harden and Paul were on the court at the same time after the start of the second half.

Every time Capela or Nene managed to eat the cake, the Celestial fans in the stadium would send a huge cheer, and Paul sat on the bench and kept talking to D'Antoni:

"We can speed up or we can get into positional battles in the new season, and we should play more pick-and-rolls and involve both Hilario and Capela in the attack."

Coach D'Antoni is very satisfied with Paul's attitude, after all, he has won the championship, knows how to play, and has such a defender, which has saved him a lot of effort:

"We can also play five outside lineups and punish the big man with a pick-and-roll, and I hope the team will be able to shoot a lot of three-pointers this season."

Seeing that Paul wanted to respond, D'Antoni immediately smiled again and said:

"I know you're worried about the playoffs, but most role players can't really do a lot of work, so you can continue to shoot mid-range shots this season and everyone else is trying to wait for their chance to shoot three-pointers."

"Either attacking under the basket or attacking from beyond the three-point line, believe me, it will make a huge difference to the team's record and maximize Harden's ability."

The Clippers' three consecutive championships rely on Li Ze's unparalleled mid-range attacking ability!

Paul didn't know how Dantony's tactics would work, but he agreed to the first request of the new coach:

"No problem, I will complete these tactical requirements, and in the new season, the Rockets will definitely rush to the top half!"

Head coach D'Antoni finally smiled and patted Paul on the shoulder, watching Harden easily complete a step-back three-pointer at the top of the arc, and couldn't help but start thinking about the future:

"What the Suns can't accomplish, let the Rockets make it happen..."

On October 5, the Clippers also ushered in the preseason game with the Warriors, and the Oracle Arena was full.

Although the Clippers and Warriors had already announced before the game that the players who had participated in the Olympics would not attend tonight's game, everyone still chose to show up to support.

The Clippers have Brogdon and Jaylen Brown in the backcourt, Tucker and Harris at the front and Plumlee at center.

The Warriors team was led by Curry, and in order to give back to the fans, Curry, who did not play in the Olympics, led the team.

Yoon Clarke, Yoon Godala, David West, and Scum Pachulia were also on the field.

Paul George on the bench has been completely convinced in the past few days, and Li Ze has not participated in training, but he has only practiced together for two days and has completely integrated into the team.

All kinds of tactics are at your fingertips, with and without the ball seamlessly switching, and what makes Paul George feel even more outrageous is that Li Ze's three-point shot seems to have evolved again...

Seeing Curry hit a long-range three-pointer on the court, Paul George, who was dressed casually, muttered beside Li Ze:

"I always feel that this guy is shooting farther and farther, and it seems that Curry has also practiced in the offseason, which is really an exaggerated shooting ability!"

Li Ze also noticed Curry's offensive options, last year's playoffs under the tough defense, three-point shooting, Curry seems to be about to make a change in the new season.

"It's just a matter of offensive selection, in key rounds, as long as you can put the ball in the basket, trust me, as long as you can score consistently, it doesn't make a big difference between two or three points."

Paul George was a little speechless, these days, he found that Li Ze always inadvertently pretended to be X, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there was nothing wrong with these statements.

After all, Li Ze's shooting rate is more than 6 percent, and in many games, the two-point shooting rate is more than 7 percent, and in this kind of scoring efficiency, three-point shooting is really not important...

Although it was a bit of a shock, Paul George was also deeply aware of the gap between himself and Li Ze.

The two may be evenly matched in his explosive state, and once the series is stretched to 7 games, Paul George will enter a state of unpredictability, while Li Ze can still play steadily.

Although he has changed from the boss of the team to the second, Paul George thinks it's a good thing, and he even has a chance to hit the MVP in the new season.

Amerika's sports media will not let Li Ze complete the achievement of three consecutive MVPs for the second time, in which case, other players have a chance.

The Clippers' record in the new season of the dual-core mode will definitely not be too bad, Paul George has already calculated it, the Warriors have too many star players, the Cavaliers are not worried, and the MVP is likely to be his!

Thinking of this, Paul George couldn't help but have a tactical backswing...

Jokic, who is on the sidelines, finds that Paul George always falls into an inexplicable state of self-congratulatory these days, which makes him a little incomprehensible.

The two have already played each other in the Rio Olympics, and they are also familiar, and the white fat man has also set a goal for himself in the new season, 16+10, he wants to use such data to get a big contract!

"Kayce, will the salary cap continue to rise next season?"

Hearing Jokic's inquiry, Li Ze replied affirmatively:

"Don't worry! Didn't I say many times that the salary will continue to rise in the past two years, and the contract is not a problem. ”

Li Ze understands the mood of the white fat man very well, the Olympics are famous, and there are more ideas for the new season, who doesn't want to get the top salary?

The reason why players who are in contract years train hard is also to show their attitude to the coaching staff and get more playing time.

The new season does need to give up some data and balance the locker room, which is the first thing Li Ze has to do.

On the other side of the Warriors' bench, Klai stared blankly at the situation on the court.

He didn't get involved in Durant's hiring in the offseason because he knew that once Durant came to the team, the shot would have to be readjusted.

Data is the knife, Kelai is secretly determined, resolutely will not share his right to shoot, Steve Cole, who is also sitting on the bench, is also a little big, and the team is currently a little short of points.

"Steve, we need to make a decision sooner rather than later, egalitarian basketball is not going to play the results we want!"

Steve Kerr didn't respond immediately, but silently looked at Curry on the court:

"It seems that we can only sacrifice Curry and Green's shooting power..."
