Min Congda had one of the most leisurely offseasons in three years.

Most of the time, he spends his time fishing, playing games, going to bars, or simply sleeping at home, watching dramas, cooking, and eating.

A small part of the time, he is allocating his assets to make his life a little more nourishing.

Min Congda's purchase of Apple stock paid its first dividend of $2.65 per share in July 2012.

Min Congda, who owns more than 20,000 Apple shares, received more than $50,000 in dividends, making up for his $48,000 loss in the playoffs.

By October of the 12th year, Apple's stock price had soared to $750, and Min Cong's stock assets had reached $15 million.

In addition to stock assets, Min Congda has also accumulated more than $500,000 in cash by continuously collecting fines for three years.

Of course, cash would depreciate in value, so Min Congda used the money to buy a majority stake in the "Red Head Boots" restaurant.

Ever since Christopher ran away for China, the operation of the Red Head Boots restaurant has been in trouble and trouble.

Linda is alone in supporting the restaurant, and it is a little difficult to continue in all aspects, after all, there is a lot of work to be done for a restaurant to run well.

Originally, Min Congda wanted to open this restaurant and make the Clippers lose money, but he didn't expect that not only did he not lose money, but he also made the Clippers make some money in more than two years.

Of course, this amount of money is really insignificant for the entire Clippers asset.

After Min Congda asked the system, the system did not object to his purchase of the restaurant.

So, Min Congda took advantage of his position to transfer most of the shares of Red Head Boots and became the new owner of the restaurant.

The ownership of the restaurant flowed from the Clippers to Min Congda's hands, which can be regarded as a disguised loss of collective assets.

After buying the restaurant, the first thing Min Congda did was to find a way to get Christopher back home.

He contacted Fan Chen in China and asked him to tell Christopher that he could go back to the United States.

Before returning to the United States, Min Congda also asked Ida to find a way to get a new identity for Christopher and give him a makeover.

So, Christopher, who had been a canteen chef in China for more than half a year, returned to Los Angeles, where he thought about it day and night.

After returning to Los Angeles to meet Min Congda, Christopher bluntly said that he never wanted to leave here again.

He is already old, and even if he dies, he will die in his hometown, instead of living a life of wandering and hiding.

Of course, he is very grateful to Min Congda for his care, he has lived quite comfortably in China during this time, not only is he not old and haggard, but he has gained some weight.

Min told him that the Red Head Boots restaurant was now owned by Min Congda personally, along with a small stake in Christopher and a stake in Anschutz's investments.

Anschutz naturally doesn't look down on this bit of mosquito meat, and the connection between him and Linda has long been severed, and it's just a dew relationship, and Anschutz's attention has long been diverted to other places.

Christopher knows that Min Congda is his real boss from now on, and he says that the rest of his time will be spent on pizza with red boots.

He and Linda naturally got back together, and Linda had long been used to Christopher's sudden departure without saying goodbye, and she came over like this when she was young.

The restaurant's business is back on track, and the restaurant can bring more than $100,000 a year to Min Congda.

What was a small investment to bleed the Clippers turned out to be a steady income for Min Congda, which was a real surprise for him.

Min Congda's mentality became more and more peaceful as a result, so he didn't jump up and down as he did throughout the offseason, and he was busy in the end.

If you want the Clippers to lose money, the deal is the same as not working, it is better to do nothing, and quietly watch the Clippers management go to the loser by themselves.

It was so comfortable that the Clippers had their season opener at home on October 31.

On the 30th, the regular season of the new NBA season has begun.

In the three games of the opening game, the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Wizards by 20 points 104-84 at home and made a good start to the new season.

LeBron James fell in the Finals for the third time, and he had to get up again to lead the Cavaliers ongoing.

James hasn't spoken on the phone with Min for an entire offseason, and he thinks he's been deceived and humiliated.

Min Congda let him stay with the Cavaliers, and the result was to let the Cavaliers enter the Finals, and then be killed by the Clippers?

If he could have gone to the Heat and triumphed with Wade and Bosh, who would be able to stop him in the league now?

The Clippers will definitely not be able to beat the Heat Big Three.

That's what James thinks anyway.

Even Min Congda stole James' lines during the Clippers' championship parade.

"Not one, two, three, not four, five, it's six, seven......"

These words were obviously what James wanted to say after the triumvirate three-in-one, but he was robbed.

James expressed his frustration and displeasure in silence, and at the same time demanded that the Cavaliers must strengthen further in the offseason.

Starting with the Heat trading for Dwight Howard and Steve Nash, Miami is much more attractive to championship veterans than the Cavaliers.

Two important fish in the free market, the former supersonic twins, Rashad Lewis and Ray Allen, both chose to go to Miami.

And the Cavaliers finally got only the interior giant, Birdman Chris Anderson, who signed him on a short-term contract, and after a preseason scouting, kept Anderson as an important addition to the team's interior line to compete with the Heat's Howard and the Clippers' strong interior line.

Of course, the Cavaliers are not short of people at front, and Sean Battier and Mike Miller are still in great form.

On the outside, Kyrie Irving and Danny Green have grown further, and the Cavaliers are in a very good state both in terms of roster age and overall structure.

It's a pity that the good situation in the finals was reversed by the Clippers, and it can be said that it was a miss with the championship.

After holding back the entire offseason, the Cavaliers vented their anger and anger on the Wizards.

How could the wizards be able to resist the strong knights, and there was no suspense in the 20-point defeat.

The other two were also heavyweight coaches.

The Miami Heat's Super Galaxy Battleship was unveiled at the American Airlines Center.

Howard, Nash, Wade, Bosh, Ray Allen, Lewis.

The Heat's roster can already put together an All-Star starter.

The appearance of Howard and Nash on the South Coast caused a sensation among fans.

Pat Riley's superteam, which had been carefully planned for several years, finally took shape in the summer of '12.

And tonight's opponent of the Heat is the abuse of the Big Three in recent years, the Boston Celtics.

However, this year, the Celtics' Big Three have disintegrated, and Ray Allen and Garnett and others have conflicts, and finally did not renew the team, choosing to switch to the Heat, becoming the Celtics' fierce rivals in the East.

With Ray Allen joining the Heat, the short-lived glory of the Green Army's Big Three has come to an end, and it is difficult for the Celtics to make any more waves with the aging Kevin Garnett and Pierce alone.

In this year's playoffs, the East will inevitably be dominated by the Heat and the Cavaliers, and the Celtics are no longer able to conquer it.

The Bulls, another powerhouse in the East, are in trouble because of Rose's injury.

In this game, the South Coast Galaxy Battleship, which was combined for the first time, did not show enough power.

The Heat's starters are quite luxurious and bluffing, with Howard, Wade, Bosh, Nash and Lewis.

At first glance, this is an all-star lineup.

However, Howard was affected by injuries and was in average condition.

Nash is 38 years old, coupled with his special style of play and role, the defense is terrible, and it will be a big hole on the court.

In the all-important No. 3 position, Lewis is no longer as brave as he used to be, unable to provide high-quality offense and defense.

The Heat really played Bosh and Wade.

Among them, Wade was affected by a knee injury, and his form is also getting worse.

The Flash, who has been able to do anything since the 08-09 season, averaging 30 points per game.

By last season, Wade's scoring average had slipped to 23 points per game.

The decline in statistics is only the appearance, and more importantly, the aging of Wade's knees has greatly reduced his speed and explosiveness.

The specific impact is the decline in the ability to solve the problem in the offense, and only for a certain period of time in each game has the superpower of the Flash.

You know, when he was healthy and young in 2006, he could have maintained that energy every minute of the series.

Because of many problems, the Heat did not have the upper hand in the face of the Celtics, who had been running in for many years and had a tacit understanding.

In the first half of the home game, they were pressed by Celtic.

Although Ray Allen is missing from the Celtics, Rondo is becoming more mature.

There's Bradley on the guard line and Brandon Buss at power forward.

Kevin Garnett is getting more and more used to squatting in the number five position.

In this game, he kept teasing the monster Howard with his trash talk and passion, which made Howard unbearable in the second half, pushed Garnett, and ate a technical foul.

In the past two years, Howard has had a lot of troubles, has had conflicts with the Magic team, and his body, which has always been very healthy, has begun to suffer injuries.

Since last offseason, he has been back and forth, not as good as before, and has played soap operas with the team.

Coupled with his relationship with a cheerleader and the problem of illegitimate children, he was almost shouted at in Orlando.

From Superman to Street Rat, it only takes two years.

And everything started with the 2010 defeat to Celtic.

So, can Howard and Garnett deal with each other?

Garnett relied on his seniority and scolded everyone.

When Lao Tzu won the MVP in the Timberwolves, you Howard had just entered the league.

And Howard is now also a superstar in the league, once known as the only man in the league who can replace James alone, how can he be a false additive.

Garnett has always been a gentleman who doesn't move his mouth, and when he is in a hurry, he does two push-ups to vent.

And Howard usually smiled and was in a hurry, and the pair of big arms as strong as crab claws were not ornaments.

This push directly pushed Garnett three steps away, and Garnett naturally did not fight back, but sprayed back in his mouth, waiting for his teammates to come and stop him, and then pretended to go up to the fight.

At this point, the referee had already blown the whistle to stop and blew Howard for a technical foul.

Pierce then hit a technical foul free throw, and the Celtics led the Heat by four points at 77-73 in the third quarter.

This situation is something that many people did not expect, and the Heat do not seem to be as strong as they seem.

However, in the fourth quarter of the game, Howard got consecutive frontcourt rebounds on the inside and attacked the basket to cause damage.

Then Wade and Bosh hit consecutive jumpers to help the Heat play a wave of 8:0 and overtake the score.

Min Congda watched the game at home, and when he saw the fourth quarter, he felt that the Heat team had a lot of potential.

The key is to deal with the position and function of Nash and Howard, two distinctive players on the court.

"An offensive organization is a master, but the defense is poor, he is too old, you have to find a good substitute for him, and you have to share the playing time with him."

"There is also a top basket protector on the inside, but the offensive efficiency is low, and he must not be allowed to attack in the low post for a long time, but to use him to liberate Bosh. With good use, the Heat lineup is not impossible to win the championship this season. ”

Min Congda very much hopes that the Heat will be strong enough to win this season's championship and prevent the Clippers from reaching the top.

After three years of busy work, Min Congda no longer dared to toss the Clippers, the more he tossed, the stronger he became, and he simply went to help other teams make suggestions.

The Heat's biggest hole and problem at the moment is the No. 1 defense.

In order to get Nash, they had to send Chalmers away.

Now Nash has only Norris Cole as a rookie on the bench.

However, the No. 1 position has always been the one with the least defensive pressure.

It's hard for a team to be all-encompassing in every position.

How to play Nash's little energy is a question that Heat head coach Spolskola must figure out.

In the end, in this game, the Heat still won 105:100, with a 5-point advantage.

Ray Allen hit a very important three-pointer at a crucial moment.

Not only helped the Heat win the game, but also regarded as a kind of revenge on the Celtics.

At the end of the game, Garnett even hugged and shook hands with Howard, who had an argument during the game, without saying a word to Ray Allen, and left the court to go back to the locker room.

Good brothers who once fought side by side have now become rivals who pass by and turn a blind eye.

After watching the game, Min Congda immediately wrote a post-game analysis article at home and posted it on the NBA-Batman blog.

To say that Min Congda really likes basketball.

If you don't like basketball, how can you continue to blog for more than two years without stopping post-game analysis?

The quality of the content of these articles is quite good, the writing is clear, the context is clear, and the insights on some issues are to the point.

Nowadays, there is a saying in the NBA, if you want to know NBA news, follow NBA-Batman's Twitter, and if you want to learn NBA tactics, go to NBA-Batman's blog.

In recent seasons, it has been in the transition stage of NBA tactics, from defense to offense, from mid-range to three-point.

In addition to Adam Silva's rise to power and the redirection of the strategy, the use of some advanced tools also played a key role.

For example, the computer is used to capture the movements and movements of the players in the videotape, and the big data system is used to analyze the details of the players' offense and defense in each game, and further dismantle the key to winning or losing each game.

There are also more and more technical and tactical exchanges between professionals, and they are racking their brains to develop new tactical systems and use new strategies to make the team stronger.

Min Congda is one of the few people in the league who is the first to realize the change from defense to offense, and his keen sense of smell on the court can capture important influencing factors in the complex information.

And his article also pointed out the direction for many big data analysts and video analysts, who no longer only analyze obvious but potentially useless data such as rebounds and scores, but also count more detailed data such as block times, defensive movement distance, area shooting percentage, etc.

At the same time, some of Min Congda's important articles are also gradually leading and building a new tactical trend of the alliance.

For example, pay attention to blocking and pick-and-roll, pay attention to three-point shooting, pay attention to mobile basket protection, and pay attention to the efficiency of the exchange of points won and lost.

Abandon the pressing defense that has been valued in the past, abandon the emphasis on strong and weak side transitions, and abandon the importance of low-post back-to-back offense.

Of course, this series of emphasis and rejection is only the direction that Min Congda has drawn through various competitions and thinking.

It is impossible for those who see it to accept it right away, and those who accept it will not execute it right away.

The old forces are always stubborn, and they embrace the principles that have accumulated from the past season after season of victories and championships.

If you want to overturn these norms and establish new standards, you naturally need to win one victory after another, and one champion after another to endorse it.

Overall, everything is changing, it's just not as fast.

Among the many NBA coaches, Spouscola is a young and thoughtful one.

After the Heat gathered Bosh + Wade and the Galaxy Battleship, there were rumors that Pat Riley would replace Spolskola and coach himself.

That's what Riley did in '06, the year before the Heat, coached by Big Van Gundy, fell short in the East.

The following year, Riley personally took the position, killed Big Van Gundy, and relied on his residual power to lead a group of veterans to successfully win the championship.

Now that the Galaxy Battleship has become a new battleship, veterans and stars have gathered, people think that it is the time for Riley to go out of the mountains to pick peaches.

Who knows, after losing the Eastern Conference finals for two consecutive years, Riley still supported Spolskola and let him continue to serve as the head coach of the Heat.

Public opinion is skeptical that Spoela will be able to handle superstars such as Howard, Nash, and Wade.

And Riley's response was also very simple, "When I took over the Lakers and coached Magic and Abdul-Jabbar, I was just a rookie. ”

Spouscola clearly has something to be trusted by Riley, he is a hard worker, loves basketball, is smart, has a lot of adjustments, and has a tough personality that suits Riley's appetite.

After the first game, Spolskla began to bury his head in analysing the video, summing up the lessons learned from the game, and making adjustments to the next game.

While analyzing the side of the road, he opened Batman's blog, and after seeing the post-match analysis written by Min Congda, he was like a treasure.

The video and analysis gave Spolskola a great inspiration.

In Game 3 of the opener, the league arranged for the Lakers to play the Mavericks.

It stands to reason that this should be a very interesting matchup.

In '11, the two teams were still strong contenders for the title.

Two seasons have passed, and both teams have aged considerably.

The Mavericks originally wanted to show their skills in free agency in the summer of 2012, taking Howard and Deron Williams to form a super team to challenge for a championship.

Unfortunately, the Mavericks' management is overconfident in how it operates, and Dallas isn't as attractive to the stars as it is on the beaches of Miami.

In the end, the Mavericks had to settle for the next best thing, picking up Brand, Vince Carter, and O.J. Mayo, who were far from their goals.

Things are much better for the Lakers, the basic structure is still there, and Los Angeles is attractive to players.

Last season, they had a squad, in the regular season, and in the playoffs, the Los Angeles derby felt like they were on the move.

I didn't expect to be overturned by the little brother clippers.

Kobe's aging and weakness, Paul's flaws on the defensive end, the aging of other veteran stars and the backward times are all visible to the naked eye.

In the offseason, the Lakers were also embroiled in family infighting, with head coach Phil Jackson swept away.

Buss Jr., the new head coach, former Suns coach D'Antoni, has been selected to lead the Lakers in small ball.

In the summer, the Lakers made a major trade to send Bynum to the 76ers in exchange for small forward Andre Iguodala to supplement the Lakers' defensive and perimeter firepower at the No. 3 position.

It turned out that those veterans on the bench, such as Martin, Hill, Wallace, Reed and others, have left.

The Lakers know that the road to accumulating outdated veterans has come to an end, and the team needs fresh blood.

Kobe, Paul, Iguodala, the Lakers still have a proud backcourt that leads the league.

It's just that they lacked frontcourt personnel, so they signed Jordan Hill, and then used a sign-and-trade method to take a draft pick and get Javier McGee from the Wizards.

In this way, the basic structure of the Lakers for the new season has been completed.

They have gone from the three highs in the era of two consecutive championships to the backcourt double star + Bynum, and now they are completely outside and functional in interior defense.

All of this is of course thanks to the Clippers, and the experience of losing to the Clippers has allowed the Lakers to accelerate the pace of reform.

In this opening game with the Mavericks, Dirk Noveski was absent with an injury, and the Mavericks led by Brand played well.

It's just that the Lakers have Kobe + Paul, and they may not be able to catch it in the playoffs, but there is nothing to say in the regular season.

In the first half, the two sides went back and forth, and in the third quarter, Kobe Bryant and Paul suddenly made a force.

Coupled with Iguodala as a new firepower point, the Lakers scored consecutive points, and the Lakers established the victory in one fell swoop.

Still, in the fourth quarter, the Lakers showed their problem: defense.

The Lakers' defense has lacked resilience and focus since '11, and it's easy for opponents to play form.

Under Carlisle's rule, the Mavericks are still very combative, even without the core Nowitzki.

The Mavericks once closed the score in the fourth quarter, and Iguodala hit a key three-pointer and a key steal defense at a critical moment to help the Lakers maintain their advantage and win the game.

Iguodala contributed 14 points in the game, made 2-of-3 three-pointers and made three steals, which was a big part of the Lakers' victory.

Kobe Bryant was also very happy to hug Iguodala after the game.

Iguodala may not be a good big man in the 76ers, but being a three-man is definitely more than enough, very good.

Min Congda can also have a hunch after watching the game that the arrival of Iguodala is very important to the Lakers.

He's far more effective than last season's veterans, who were already behind the times.

For the Lakers and Kobe Bryant, from '08 onwards, their success or failure has always been inseparable from a good small forward.

'09 was Ariza, '10 was Artest.

Ariza's departure and Artest's aging have dealt a major blow to the Lakers.

There is also Radmanovic in '08, because of his weakness, the Lakers lost completely in the Finals.

In short, the Lakers, who seem to have lost a lot of stardom, may be more solid and strong than last season.

"Yes, there are Heat in the East, there are Lakers in the West, and our Clippers want to defend the title this year, I'm afraid it's not that simple!"

After watching three games in a day, Min Congda was suddenly full of confidence in other teams in the NBA.
