230. A healthy penny is no longer a penny

Although he was annoyed by the way Odom spoke, Li Ao was completely relieved.

Yesterday afternoon, he didn't follow up because he thought that the importance of the adjusted playbook Leodom in several tactics had not declined but increased, and it was definitely not this teammate who was going to be traded.

From Odom's description, the information he got - the coaching staff wanted the left devil to fake the starter.

After lunch, Li Ao chatted with Gentry again and learned more about Odom's change of role.

Gentry revealed what he meant, and it sounded better - Odom is such a good player, to be responsible for wing cover, offensive rebounding, hand-to-hand defense, it is too condescending.

Let's be honest — whether it's the quality of the wing screen, the long two-point shot, or the efficiency of cutting into the frame, Odom can't match Matt Harprin, who has dragged down his other four starting teammates when he plays a supporting role.

Organizing the offense, Odom is stronger than Bibi, but Bibi is more stable, Odom will inevitably have times when he gets distracted, and he really wants to go further in the playoffs, and Odom, who has the characteristics of a time bomb, is not suitable as the first main control point.

And their current starting lineup does not have as much demand for playmaking as much as the ability to distribute the ball, and it just so happens that Bibby is one of the league's best ball-handling cores at distributing the ball, and Odom is far worse than Bibby in this regard.

Gentry wants Odom to switch roles, and Li Ao supports it.

But he didn't put pressure on Odom and decided to let Odom choose for himself.

Although this decision is not as big as the impact of giving up the starting position, it will also affect the 'value'.

If other teams are interested in bringing in Odom, they will definitely study his game, and will find that most of his data is obtained when facing the opponent's second and third teams, and the gold content of the data will decline, affecting the offers given to him by other teams, and indirectly affecting his contract renewal offers......

There are teammates who are willing to sacrifice, Li Ao does not refuse, but he will not take the initiative to ask his teammates to sacrifice.

Two days off, on November 12, the Clippers hosted the Suns.

At 5:10 p.m., at the Staples Center, the visiting Suns entered first.

The Lakers will host the Kings tonight, and the Clippers and Suns will have to start early.

Li Ao leaned on the entrance of the players' tunnel and looked at Marbury who entered the stadium opposite, feeling that he was still the senior brother in charge.

It's cheap and easy to use, and it only costs Margeti and Meme to get it back.

After the opposite Suns replaced Kidd with Marbury, their record cannot be described as declining day by day, but can only be said to have collapsed at the beginning.

The Suns are currently playing six games, 2-4, and winning two against the Grizzlies and Warriors.

The 4 games we lost, the loss to the Lakers, there was nothing wrong with that, and the loss to the Hawks was not a big problem, and the Hawks started with a lot of momentum.

But losing to the collapsed Rockets and Nuggets, Marbury's ability to lead the team was questioned.

Marbury complained about not having good teammates when he was with the Nets, and now he has given him a 50-win roster led by Kidd...... He's a good guy, and when asked in an interview, 'Do you still feel like you don't have a good teammate?' he shut up and hid at the training ground to practice shooting.

At least not annoyed or sophistry.

After the players of the two teams entered, it was another 'Jordan fan meeting'.

However, not everyone participated, and Penny and Marion preferred to take pictures with Li Ao.

After taking the photo, Li Ao said excitedly: "Anferne, you finally put on the jersey." ”

When the Suns came to Los Angeles yesterday, there were news reports that so far this season, Penny has not missed a game or even a training session from training camp, to the preseason, to the regular season, for the first time in 6 years!

When he saw the news, Li Ao's first feeling was actually sad.

Now that the game is about to begin, the tears are gone, and all that remains is the excitement of fighting pennies.

Anfernee Hardaway laughed: "Our new team doctor is amazing, thanks to him. ”

"It's pretty good, Gugliotta doesn't seem to be out at the beginning of the game...... I heard that Kidd left because you two were out of action and desperate for this team, and now that you're healthy, do you think he'll regret leaving? ”

"Oh, Spider-Man, you deserve to be a Hollywood star, you really act like a good person, you are so smart, you should know that for me who has been through so many things, this trash talk can't affect my emotions."

"I'll just use my mouth, and I don't spend money, in case it stimulates you, then we definitely have a better chance of winning."

Li Ao shrugged his shoulders and tilted his head to spread his hands three times.

Penny smiled: "Ou Ou Ou, I know, I will do my best to fight you tonight so that you can enjoy the game." ”

Li Ao: ┐('-')┌

Penny, who had endured so many years of injuries, had now clearly accepted the arrangement of fate.

With such a mentality, Li Ao thinks it's good, even if Penny retires directly after the current contract, the total salary is more than 120 million US dollars, as long as he doesn't do it, he can't spend money for a lifetime, accept the arrangement of fate, and enjoy the rest of his career with a relaxed attitude, which is a good choice.

But Li Ao still appreciates Hill's tenacity more.

At 5:28, the pre-match preparation time ended, and both teams started the game.

The Clippers started the lineup, with the Suns fielding starting lineups of Marbury, Anfernee Hardaway, Beau Outlaw, Marion, and Gugliotta.

Looking at the newcomers such as John Wallace, Dan Marley, and Jack Wascool on the opposite bench, plus Bo Outlaw, who started tonight, Li Ao felt that saying that Little Colangelo was messy this season really wronged the second generation of the ball.

The operation of trading Kidd back for Marbury is indeed 'saving trade value' for the future, but subsequent trades or free agent signings can see that Colangelo Jr. does not want to raise Marbury as Jamison, but really tries to win around Marbury.

At half past five, O'Neal Jr. beat Gugliotta to win the jump ball, and the game began, and the Clippers attacked first!

In the first attack, in response to the fans' calls, Bibby passed the ball to the basketball god who was opposite the penny.

Jordan hit his back and turned around and hit a pull-up jump shot!

Switching offense and defense, Marbury broke through singlely.

Bibby didn't guard Marbury, but the rest of the Clippers actively made up for the defense, blocking Marbury on the right side of the three-second zone, and Marbury passed back to the high post.

Anfernee Hardaway received the ball in one step outside the free throw line, and in the face of Jordan's supplemental defense, he did not come by himself, but rationally set the second pass to the bottom line, Marion cut in to receive the ball, jumped up against O'Neal Jr., who turned and made up, and hit a high throw!
