Chapter 422: Old Deng, I Miss You (Third Update)

Riley has been in the NBA for decades, from a down-and-out retired player to the godfather of the league today, what kind of person has he not met? What kind of things haven't you experienced?

But he really hasn't seen Min Congda like this.

Riley is a big tree in the NBA, with deep roots and many eyes and ears.

In the summer of '10, James refused to come to the Heat because of a conversation with Min Congda, of course he knew.

This made him extremely annoyed, but he also felt very strange, why didn't Min Congda invite James to the Clippers?

If Min Congda gets James to the Clippers, Riley will feel that this person is a strong opponent and will treat Min Congda as a strong opponent.

But he persuaded James to return to the Cavaliers, and this wave of operations made Riley puzzled.

Then seeing the Clippers increase in strength and step by step to the Western Conference Finals, I felt that Smart was unfathomable.

Riley is known as a god operator, and the whole league can make him feel unfathomable, there was only David Stern in the past, and now he has to count Min Congda.

Phil Jackson's kind of is a big fool in Riley's eyes, and he can lead a strong team of superstars to build a team from scratch, and Riley can't look down on Jackson at all.

In the new season, Min Congda directly announced that he would become the head coach of the Clippers, which surprised Riley again.

This year's Clippers are going to make a big splash, and Smart's kid wants to pick peaches like he did in '06.

Riley heard that Min Congda is a man with extremely high tactical literacy and first-class basketball talent, and is likely to be a wizard who is a coach.

He thought that Min Congda would build the Clippers into an iron army that repaired both inside and outside, and became an important force in the west.

As a result, he watched the first video of the Clippers and Trail Blazers, and he was shocked.

This rotation, this tactical distribution, highlights a mess.

In the 12-man squad, every player has been given a chance to play, and it is not a short time.

At the last moment, the five rookie players under the third grade are all small, and the lineup that the gods can only come up with.

What's even more scary is that in this rotation, he won in the end.

Riley thought to himself, Mo Fei Smart did it on purpose? Is that what rotation and strategy they're all about?

At the pre-game preparation meeting, Spo muttered that the Clippers' routine was not easy to target.

Riley told Spo that in the face of random moves, he must focus on himself and play the style and rhythm of the team.

It's a pity that Spo, a coach, is good at seeing moves, a typical technical coach.

It's not Riley's temperamental type, and temperamental coaches are the best at inciting morale, allowing players to play their own style and cohesion.

Spo is not very good at this, and the spirit of the team depends on Wade to lead.

At the end of the first half, the Clippers were 55-51, leading the Heat by four points.

Spo felt at a loss, and at the beginning of the season, the players had a lot of problems.

The opponent is so chaotic, after a pause, things are wrong, and the arrangement is completely ineffective.

You're playing against the Los Angeles Clippers in the first half of the first quarter, and in the second half of the first quarter, you're playing against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Don't say that the coach is confused, the players are also confused, do you still want to play according to the coach's arrangement?

People have changed, and they can only play freely.

The Clippers are really free to play, the head coach is silent, and the players are actively communicating on the court.

It just so happened that the summer league and the preseason were not played, so the regular season was regarded as a run-in.

After the start of the second half, the Clippers' erratic style of play left the Heat scratching their heads.

However, the Heat are different from the Trail Blazers in that their players are experienced and their individual abilities are clearly superior.

At Wade's point, the Clippers couldn't contain it, broke through again and again, and scored under the basket and threw shots.

And the Heat's interior line also couldn't hold Randolph, who pressed Bosh to the ground tonight and rubbed it.

The hit rate of low-level single eating is extremely high.

The scores of the two sides were staggered and extremely intense.

From 55:51, to 65:65, and then to 72:70.

The scoring efficiency of both sides is not high, the rhythm and scene are a little chaotic, and the main one is high-intensity.

Milicic clashed with Joel Antony in defence, causing the game's gunpowder to climb.

Entering the fourth quarter, the shooting percentages on both sides dropped sharply.

can't score points, it's just up to the players' personal ability to grind.

In a single quarter, the two sides played 15:16, and the Heat scored 1 more point than the Clippers.

The two sides played 87-86 in the final moments, and the Clippers led the Heat by 1 point!

With that scoreline, there was no movement for the last two minutes.

Min Congda was in a hurry, why can't you score 1 point, Heat?

He wanted to give the Heat points for the whole technical foul, but it obviously didn't work.

In fact, the Clippers defense does not have a special strategy, which is to defend the basket and put down three points.

The Heat just couldn't shoot, and there were five seconds left in the game.

The Heat had a chance to make a kill, and Spo called a timeout to set up the game.

Min Congda's heart drifted to the Heat bench, thinking about helping Spo arrange a tactic.

Cole asked Min Congda, "Mr. Smart, how do we defend ourselves in the final stage?" ”

Min Congda thought to himself, falling behind by 1 point, the Heat may play a counter-hanging.

In order to help the Heat, Min Congda said: "Defend three points, don't let the Heat shoot three points." ”

Kerr was surprised and said, "They're only one point behind, how can they shoot a three-pointer?" ”

"This is called attacking it unprepared, so I'll make a plan. Everyone, keep your defense focused on the three-point line and watch out for your opponent's three-point plays. ”

Min Congda is trying to give Spo and the Heat an assist.

Unexpectedly, Spo actually arranged a three-point tactic!

Wade feints to attract the defense, and Chalmers catches the ball at the top of the arc and shoots a three-pointer!

As a result, the ball was predicted by George, and he directly broke the ball and won it, destroying the last attack of the Heat!

Min Congda put George on the pitch at the last minute, hoping that this young man would make some mistakes.

Young people, if you don't make mistakes, you can be forgiven if you make mistakes.

As a result, George slapped his face and successfully stole the kill, causing Min Congda to vomit three liters of blood. 33

Then Min Congda had to pretend to be happy and congratulate George at the end of the game.

No way, you're the head coach, you can leave, and the head coach has to celebrate the victory with everyone.

This taste, chocolate-flavored Xiang can't be like that.

Then, after the game, I had to attend a press conference.

In the face of congratulations and questions from reporters, he explained his concept of "everyone has a ball to play" in governing the army.

In the first two seasons, Min Congda also won a lot of games, and he was not less disappointed, but he was able to get through quickly.

But this season as a coach, it's really a bit unbearable, because you can't escape it.

You're on the front lines of the battle, and you're going to face the victory and enjoy the cheers.

After a performance, Min Congda decided to put up with it, he didn't believe it, just like that, the Clippers could still win!

Two days later, the Clippers hosted the Los Angeles Lakers in a stunning Los Angeles derby.

Kobe Bryant-Paul combination, vs. Clippers 09 duo.

As a result, the Clippers narrowly beat the Lakers by 111:109 and 2 points.

Stephen Curry contributed a brilliant stunner, a three-point shot from beyond the arc after a single block.

No one expected that Curry would be so bold and dare to shoot such a killer shot.

But if you go in, you win the game.

Curry scored 27 points in this game, which turned out to be the highest score in a single game by a Clippers player this season.

It's not that the players don't give up, it's that they have little playing time and it's hard to get out of shape.

On January 16, the Clippers hosted the New Jersey Nets.

The two sides are still fighting inseparably.

The Nets signed Deron Williams in the summer, ushering in the Deron era.

But the Nets' tactical system is even more chaotic than the Clippers.

The two sides fought again, but the Clippers suddenly made a force in the final stage, beating the Nets 10-2 and successfully overtaking them.

101:98, 3-point advantage defeated the Nets, making it four wins in a row.

On January 17, the Clippers headed to Salt Lake City, back-to-back games, and it was another red-eye flight in the early hours of the morning.

Min Congda got food poisoning from eating a hamburger at a hotel in Salt Lake City, insisted on participating in the game while sick, and went to the scene to command.

In the case of physical exhaustion, he relied on willpower to support and insisted on commanding, vowing to implement a 15-person rotation.

As a result, the Clippers exploded on three-pointers tonight, shooting 13-of-22 from three-point range.

Whoever goes up can throw a three-pointer in, causing the Jazz to collapse in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, even if the full bench lineup was replaced, the Jazz couldn't catch up.

At 109:97, the Clippers beat the Jazz away, winning five in a row.

After Min Congda coached, the Clippers did not taste defeat!

But Min didn't attend the post-match press conference because of a stomachache.

In a weakened and dehydrated state, Min Congda flew back to Los Angeles with the team overnight.

Because on January 18th, they are hosting the Dallas Mavericks!

Due to the shortened season, there have been back-to-back fixtures on the schedule, and they are interspersed with away games.

Min Congda finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he thought to himself, what did he do to be this unlucky head coach.

Running back and forth, I have to endure the hardships of working every day, why do I still win five in a row?

Since the beginning of the new season, the team has not lost a game, and the winning rate ranks first in the league!

If you continue to play like this, how many losses can you have this season?

Min Congda's heart is bitter, and his body is even more unbearable, a double blow.

After returning to Los Angeles in the early morning, Min Congda took medicine and rested at home until noon on the 18th.

When he got up, he felt better, and the first thing he did was call Adam Silva and ask him how the schedule was arranged!

Why do you want to schedule such a dense schedule for the Clippers, just keep it back-to-back at home, and you have to put an away away in the middle.

And this away game is still Salt Lake City in the Plateau, isn't this a toss!

Silva explained on the phone that there is no way to shorten the season, otherwise there will be too few games to get back to the original.

"However, the Clippers did well at the box office after the start of the season, with attendance and ticket revenue being the first in the league, and you did a good job..."

"Smack!"

Min Congda hung up the phone, and there was not a word I wanted to hear!

The second thing, Min Congda called Mike Dunleavy and said he wanted to talk to him.

"Old Deng, to be honest, I miss you."

Some people died, but not completely......
