117. Tenk rocket
"Congratulations to the host for beating the Grizzlies, the stats of this game: 41 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal, 6 blocks, reward: 880 achievement points."
"Third Pick:
The host completed two blocks against Stromeyer Swift in the game against the Grizzlies, and congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: 1000 achievement points. ”
The next morning, when Li Ao woke up, he couldn't help but look at the two tips after last night's game again.
41 points in a single game, Meizizi!
Although 29 shots last night were a bit excessive...... But don't worry.
As a rookie who is the focus of the team's training, what's wrong with daring to fight in garbage time.
He got up and swiped through various media websites and forums, no, they were all touting his 41 points, 6 blocks, and 4 times 5 stats.
It wasn't Swift who blocked the most last night, and he didn't care about this opponent in the back, and the one he got the most hats was Ocella Harrington, one of the 'Texas Three', the Grizzlies' backup center.
Ocella Harrington is the first pick in the second round of the 96 Golden Generation, with a positive style of play and a strong body, but the disadvantage is that he is only 206 cm tall and has average athleticism.
Li Ao also saw a post analyzing the 10 blocks he got in two games, and came to the conclusion that he was very restrained from those interior lines who were not fast and the scoring area was fixed under the basket, so there were many replies to ridicule him for 'bullying the old man'.
But it's just a joke, he has received a lot of recognition in this regard, his blocks, some people have commented that he greatly limits the easy scoring opportunities of the opponent's weakest scoring player, which can play a big role in the game.
After brushing the news that made him happy for a while, Li Ao searched the Grizzlies' fan forum to see more happy things.
Ooh!
It's so lively!
He saw a lot of posts from Clippers fans thanking the Grizzlies.
And the Grizzlies fans are actually on the same side as their Clippers fans at this time!
When he was talking nonsense in an interview yesterday, the reporter really pretended not to see that he was talking nonsense.
The phrase "I like a city with a comfortable environment" even Clippers fans believe it.
According to Eagle Sauce's media survey, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Vancouver, Seattle, Portland and other cities are the cities that flower growers choose the most to work in North America.
Watching the Grizzlies management being ridiculed by the group, Li Ao was in a happy mood.
He didn't have any grudges with the Grizzlies, he didn't meet the Grizzlies management, and they didn't invite him to tryout, but after becoming a professional player, he understood why Dampier, Big Z, O'Neal Jr., Ben Wallace and others fought as hard as they saw their father's killer every time they saw Canby.
Iverson is strong, Raheem has a good character and a good personality, and the top three picks targeted by players in the same class are not only Camby, especially the players in the same position who want to blow up this list of talents.
At 7 o'clock, Li Ao went to pick up the iron for more than half an hour, took a bath, cooked for the aunt, and then accompanied the aunt to read email shopping magazines at the aunt's house.
With the popularization of mobile phones, the most popular shopping method for foot basin chicken, telephone shopping, has spread to its wild daddy eagle sauce here, Li Ao remembers that this seems to be popular in China at this time, and a bunch of phone shopping programs mixed with dragons and snakes have emerged on TV.
After resting all morning and having lunch, Li Ao came to the Memorial Stadium.
Today, Saturday, Henry Bibi was very efficient and arranged training for Li Ao.
However, today Li Ao is a 'defensive sparring partner', which is a condition proposed by the middle-aged man he accepted, and his old teammates helped him practice running, and he helped his old teammates polish their offensive cooperation.
This year, the Trojans have developed and won five of the top 100 high school students in the United States in one fell swoop, and the highest ranking is Gerard Wallace in No. 4, who is also the object of Henry Bibby's attention.
After the training began, the talented freshmen, led by Sam Clancy, were eager to challenge Li Ao.
Especially Gerald Wallace, who is ranked the highest, often hear classmates compare him to Li Ao, but they don't have a high opinion of him.
Although sports is not his favorite industry, but he has chosen this path, he has been working hard, although he and Li Ao are a freshman and a junior, but they are only 1 year old, this feeling of being looked down upon, he is very unhappy!
And then...... During the training game, Gerald Wallace, who was opposite Li Ao, suffered the biggest blow since he started playing basketball.
Breaking through and breaking through, the other party looks thinner than him, and he is indeed thinner than him, but his strength is much stronger than him!
Defensive skill, great awareness, and exaggerated coverage......
After a training match, Gerard Wallace, like Sam Clancy, crouched in the corner and drew circles.
The feeling of abusing vegetables is very refreshing, but Li Ao is still worried about abusing his junior brother.
However, Li Ao was surprised, after resting for a while and conducting several sets of shooting drills, in the second intra-team game, Gerald Wallace regained his strength, and played harder on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends than before!
In the last practice match, Li Ao ran and shot with ease, but this time he encountered considerable resistance, and Gerard Wallace chased him off the ball like a mad dog.
This made Li Ao very happy, and he began to try to adjust the pace of his running, reducing movement, reducing unnecessary switchback runs, increasing pile-wrapping, and increasing the standing time to separate the space from static confrontations......
Although Gerald Wallace worked hard, after all, he had just come out of high school, and unsurprisingly, he was beaten again.
At 5 o'clock in the evening, Li Ao ended the training with satisfaction.
In the evening, Li Ao invited the whole Trojan team to a meal, ending a pleasant day.
…
After a day off, at 6 o'clock in the morning on the 4th, Li Ao woke up and looked at the calendar at the bedside, there was a game today.
After playing the opener on the road, the Clippers started with the Grizzlies and played five consecutive games at the Staples Center, four home and one away.
At 7:10 p.m., Li Ao was standing at the entrance of the home team's tunnel at the Staples Center.
He looked at the five starters who came out on the opposite side, and it was another day of Zabel villains in his heart......
Morris Taylor was sent to the Rockets by the Magic in exchange for Dee Brown, who averaged 1.8 three-pointers per game last season.
At 7:30 p.m., the Clippers and the Rockets faced off.
Margeti was promoted to the starting position tonight, playing small forward, and Li Ao was moved to the shooting guard position to defend Mobley.
After the game began, the Clippers pressed the Rockets to play.
In terms of overall strength, the Rockets are stronger, and after the opening game, the Rockets traded Dee Brown, who they didn't use, for a forward who averaged 17 points per game last season.
Morris Taylor, who is 206 cm tall and weighs 116 kg, is very strong, has a tough style of play, and dares to fight, which just makes up for the shortcomings of Olajuwon's interior attack avalanche and Barkley's retirement.
Odom was hammered by Morris Taylor tonight.
But Margeti vs. Francis, Li Ao vs. Mobley, O'Neill Jr. vs. Olajuwon, Heaven!
Morris Taylor finished with 21 points and six rebounds on 8-of-14 shooting, plus 5-of-8 free throws tonight.
But Francis only had 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists on 4-of-13 shooting tonight.
Although Olajuwon got 12 boards, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks, he rebounded a lot because the two teams combined for 115 rebounds tonight, and Li Ao picked up 8 rebounds from his teammates tonight.
Olajuwon scored just one of his nine shots tonight, plus four points on 2-of-2 free throws.
O'Neal Jr. just needs to stick to him, limit his mid-range and close-range shots, and even give Olajuwon a chance to go inside, as the Clippers have a bullying old man and a professional rookie.
Li Ao blocked 3 times tonight, two of which were contributed by Olajuwon, 'bullying the opponent's old powerlessness'.
Mobley was also miserable, defended by Li Ao, scoring 16 points on 6-of-15 shooting.
The pace was too slow tonight, and Mobley was restrained by Li Ao, and the slow-paced positional battle singles were even more miserably.
However, Li Ao's side scored very badly tonight, he just scored 41 points, and he was targeted by the Rockets, he was as calm as ever, he passed when he should pass, and he was restrained when he should be contained, and he made 11 shots in the whole game, scoring 12 points, plus 8 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.
The best performers were Odom and O'Neal Jr., the former with 13 points, 20 rebounds and 3 assists, and the latter with 17 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.
At 9:51 p.m., a slow-paced positional battle ended in an offensive and defensive battle.
79-67, the Clippers defeated the Rockets and won two in a row!
At the end of the competition, Li Ao received a competition reward of 460 achievement points.
The score is so low, he can accept his low scoring and assists, who has always scored high, and it is not bad to have a double.
But the cap ......
Tonight, he could already feel that the opponent's inside line was avoiding him, including Olajuwon, who didn't go inside after being hatted twice by him.
From the team's defensive point of view, this is good, but I just enjoyed the joy of 6 blocks in a single game, and the second game was directly cut in half, and the blocks will gradually become more difficult in the future.
But when he thought about it, it was also something to be happy about, relying on the Lakers' preseason games, the Jazz and the Grizzlies' regular season, his reputation for rebounding defense was played, and the defensive deterrence was raised, which was a good thing for the team.
…
Carrying the Rockets away, the Clippers got a day off.
This day off, Los Angeles is bustling.
The Clippers and Lakers are about to play each other!
After 3 regular season games, Li Ao averaged 24.7 points, 5.3 boards, 5.3 assists and 4.3 blocks per game, becoming the current popular fried chicken!
The media that touted him the most fiercely compared him to O'Neal and David Robinson in his rookie season, saying that in the past 12 years, only Duncan performed better in his rookie season.
The Lakers didn't want to be signed on the trade list of the stud's high-quality role player roster, and it was brought out for speculation.
As for the fact that the Lakers have negotiated with the Magic to trade the No. 5 pick with chips beyond the market price, it has been selectively ignored by the media.
Amid the media hype, all the fans' attention was drawn to this match.
Look at the excitement, who doesn't love it.
However, the attitude of Los Angeles fans surprised NBA fans in other regions.
When it comes to the team, Clippers fans also feel that the Lakers are much better than them.
But Li Ao's personal popularity in Los Angeles is no less than that of the OK group!
Sports Illustrated conducted a random survey on the streets of the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area, and the favorite NBA players, O'Neal first, Li Ao second, and Kobe Bryant third.
This Li Ao was also surprised, because since he started the summer league, Lakers fans have often asked him to sign autographs and take photos, at that time the Clippers have clearly rejected the Lakers' trade offer, and Baylor has received orders not to answer calls from anyone related to the Lakers.
This is certainly not the effect of the phrase 'OK combination is the best in the world'.
Speaking of which, after the Lakers won the championship last season, the players of the two teams that were defeated by the Lakers were the Trail Blazers and Pacers who praised the most in the end.
And Li Ao didn't discuss the topic of the Lakers with others except for saying 'OK combination is the best in the world'.
I can't understand why it's so popular in Los Angeles, Li Ao doesn't want to, it's not a good thing, who doesn't like to be popular.
Today, Li Ao received a good news, a bad news, and a good and bad news.
The bad news, O'Neal is back early and will play in tomorrow's game.
With O'Neal's style of play, there is basically no need to expect the opponent to be out for too long and in bad condition.
Mixed news - in the Lakers' narrow 97-92 win over the Jazz yesterday, Kobe Bryant, who scored five consecutive mid-range shots in the final quarter and scored 14 points in a single quarter to lead the team to victory, slipped his foot at the last moment, split a cross fork, strained crotch ligaments, and will be out for 4-6 weeks.
For the team, Li Ao thinks this is a good thing, OK is not suitable, and they have hope of winning.
But he couldn't play against Kobe, and he felt regretful.
But with that good news, nothing else matters — Li Ao and Schwartz traveled to a Los Angeles estate together and met the man known as the god of basketball - Michael Jordan.
The sneaker endorsement is finally going to be signed!
In terms of hooks, after several months of tugging, a 7-year contract of 70 million US dollars was reluctantly given.
As Li Ao showed his strength in the preseason, Schwartz ignored the hook's attitude, and the hook was willing to raise the price to tens of millions of dollars.
But just when the hook thought that he could take Li Ao down with blood, he was stabbed in the back by the sub-brand.
Schwartz has been communicating with AJ for nearly a month, and the general direction has been negotiated, leaving Li Ao to personally discuss some details.
On the evening of November 5, 2000, fans were discussing tomorrow's game between the Clippers and the Lakers, whether the Clippers could take advantage of Kobe's injury to kill the defending champions, whether Spider-Man could beat O'Neal twice, and what kind of performance Spider-Man could play in the game against the Lakers.
Air Jordan President Larry Miller, Chief Endorsers Michael Jordan, and Li Ao held a press conference together.
Michael Jordan, on behalf of AJ, announced that he officially signed a contract with Li Ao for 7 years and 98 million US dollars.
Larry Miller also announced that Jordan's exclusive designer, Trink Hartfrode, who created the AJ6 classic and popular boot for Jordan, will create an exclusive boot for Li Ao within 3 years.
As soon as this news came out, it caused a sensation in the United States!
