The best teammates in the NBA

On June 2017, 6, in addition to reviewing the Clippers' championship history, Amerika's sports media also began to hype this year's draft.

Different from the situation in previous years, LaVar Ball, who has a big mouth this year, has boasted about his son in recent months, and his outrageous speeches have frequently attracted the attention of the sports media.

"In my prime, I could beat Michael Jordan!"

"Lonzo Ball can surpass Kayce-Li in the future! He will definitely be able to realize his talent in the future!"

"My son is better than losers Stephen Curry and LeBron James, he is an MVP level player!"

"The Big Baller was released for the first time, and the price of 495 US dollars is too high? It is your problem that you can't afford sneakers!"

In order to hype his son, Rabal Ball has been jumping up and down since March Crazy, using his big mouth traits, constantly accepting media interviews, and frequently speaking out on social media.

Thanks to his father's performance, Lonzo Ball has received more and more attention. Black and red are also red!

Although everyone regards "Ball Daddy" as a joke, there are always fans who can't turn their heads around and believe that Ball is really talented
On the 17th, everyone in the Clippers returned to Los Angeles. After throwing money wildly in Las Vegas, it is natural to prepare for the championship parade and fan forum.

Not long after getting off the plane, in addition to the warm reception of the fans, Amerika's sports media also asked about Lonzo Ball.

"Kayce, are you optimistic about Ball? LaVar said his son can surpass you. Do you think this will happen in the future?"

Li Ze was a little surprised. Now UCLA has so many newcomers?

"UCLA's performance this year did not meet expectations. Basketball is for five people. Lonzo is indeed very talented, but his performance still disappoints me."

"I think everyone is looking forward to the team's 12th championship. I don't like Laval's point of view. As for the future, just leave it to time!"

When the sports media around heard Li Ze's answer, they felt that the big mouth of "Qiu Daddy" would definitely not let go of such an opportunity. As the draft was approaching, everyone was looking forward to the response from that big mouth.
Li Ze, who returned to Los Angeles, still has a lot of work to do. The Clippers are about to move. This time, even the training hall and office area have been moved to Inglewood.

As a superstar in the team, it is natural to cooperate with the promotion work of the operation department.

For the Clippers in the new season, the first thing is to ensure the attendance. In Los Angeles, the fans of the Lakers cannot be ignored. After the separation of the two sides, many fans of the Lakers will definitely not buy tickets to support them.

Although the distance from the Staples Arena to the Clippers' new arena is very close, after the ticket price rises, many fans are destined not to choose to watch the games of the two teams at the same time.

Although the long-established Lakers are still living on their laurels, the Clippers still suffer a bit in terms of the number of fans. The ancestors are too poor.

For many old fans, watching the Lakers' ball can make them look high, and such fans are destined not to buy it for the Clippers.
Team general manager Gary Sachs also has a lot of work this year, and the top priority is naturally to retain the role players in the championship lineup.

This job is destined not to be easy. Compared with other teams, although the Clippers are a championship team, they are too introverted.

It is very difficult to rush to the starting lineup. Even if you enter the 12-man active list, playing time cannot be guaranteed.

Under the circumstances that the contracts are not much different, role players will naturally prefer a more relaxed environment. The most important thing is to be able to play in the starting lineup.
After returning to Los Angeles, the team announced a holiday, and the No. 19 team will have a championship parade. At the same time, everyone will also visit the city of Inglewood.

If the Clippers continue to win the championship in the future, the championship parade route from Staples to USC will also become history.

On the 19th, the Celtics, holding this year's No. 3 pick, unexpectedly chose to trade down, and got the No. 2019 pick and the [-] first-round pick from Philadelphia.

This deal has just happened, and every team in the league knows that the Celtics already have a favorite candidate.

"Ball Daddy" is still jumping up and down these two days, but he didn't respond to Li Ze's remarks.

UCLA's most recent championship was won by Li Ze in 09, the 11th championship in team history, which has always been something the school is proud of.

Although the coach no longer coached the team due to his age, as a celebrity, it is normal for Li Ze to express his disappointment.

It's just that as the draft is approaching, the big-mouthed "Ball Dad" began to encourage the Lakers in the same city to select his son!

This year, the Lakers hold the No. 2 pick in the first round, with a high ranking in the big ball market, and they are simply the dream team for newbies.

The Clippers are still the 30th pick in the first round this year, and the Thunder have the right to swap in the first round, but Presti is out of his mind, so naturally he won't change the pick.

No matter what everyone's focus is, for Los Angeles fans, attending the Clippers' championship parade at 10 a.m. is the most important thing.

The whole city was cheering for the Clippers' 5 consecutive championships. Perhaps because they didn't have to go to work, when the team drove to Southern State University, there were more and more fans.

Li Ze, who was wearing a white championship T-shirt, still just smiled, sitting at the front of the team, and simply waving to the fans around him.

Paul George and Eric Gordon are different. These two are extraordinarily involved and interact with the fans loudly. For players who won the championship for the first time, this is indeed a novel experience.

Fox Sports and ESPN broadcast the Clippers' championship parade live, and Durant, who was at home in Oakland, was possessed by lemon essence.

Since losing the Western Conference finals, Durant didn't even read his beloved Twitter and joined the 73-win Warriors. As a result, the record did not improve, and the playoffs did not improve.
"Hell idea, why does the league want to hold such a celebration, wouldn't it be great to award awards directly like in previous years? Xie Te! The players union actually agreed to this decision!"

Manager Kleiman saw that the big employer became irritable again, and his expression was a little strange.

If he remembers correctly, in the middle of the season Durant was still very much looking forward to the celebrations after the finals
After joining the Warriors, Durant bought this mansion in San Francisco Bay Area, California for $2100 million.

Covering an area of ​​9100 square feet, the completely modern-style villa is very livable, and the supporting facilities are also very complete. Durant, who likes basketball, even transformed a private basketball court.

Adu also wants to follow Li Ze and end his career with the Warriors in the big ball city.

The reason why Durant, who smokes every day, has turned his attitude 180 degrees is mainly because at this year's awards ceremony, the Warriors must be the object of ridicule.

As the leader of the Warriors, Durant has to take the blame. For Adu, this is making a fool of himself in public!

"Don't worry about the subsequent awards ceremony, just treat it as a company for Ms. Wanda.

"Kevin, the Warriors' championship window is also shrinking. Next season, we need to win a championship, which will help us with our next sneaker contract."

After coming to the Bay Area, Durant has developed vigorously in business. Compared with Oklahoma City, it is backed by Silicon Valley and has more opportunities.

But what Kleiman has always been thinking about is the big contract with Nike. It has been 17 years, and this contract will expire in more than a year.

If you want to become Nike's top card, the championship is essential. The reason why LeBron James was squeezed out by Durant is because the opponent has lost the championship for many years.

Regarding the agent's words, Durant will naturally take it to heart. Although James keeps failing, he at least made it to the finals.

If he can't even make it to the Western Conference finals, the future is hard to say
"I know, but the salary of the Warriors is already in the top five. I don't think even the general manager Miles knows how to strengthen the team."

Thinking of the team's lineup for next season, Durant took a puff of smoke depressedly. He really didn't expect the Warriors to lose in the Western Conference Finals.
Kleiman also felt that this was outrageous. According to his previous expectation, Durant would be able to harvest the FMVP when he came to the Warriors, thereby shortening the gap with Li Ze, but now it has become a stepping stone.

"Maybe we can give Miles some advice, you know, Kevin, as a superstar, you have such a privilege!"

"Joining the Warriors is to win the championship. I believe the team will definitely respect your wishes!"

Hearing the agent's reminder, Durant realized that he should become Manager Du, and it was time to think about recruiting players.

Kleiman saw that the big employer was paying attention to this matter, and he couldn't help but secretly nodded in his heart. It would be best to sign his players, so as to earn an extra commission.
The Clippers' championship celebration has also reached its climax. After Li Ze assured the fans that he will continue to win the championship next season, Paul George also firmly answered a question from a Fox Sports reporter:

"I will always stay with the Clippers. Los Angeles is my hometown. It feels great to play for my hometown team!"

"Partnering with Kayce is the most correct choice in my career. You know, we are the best striker combination in the league, and the Clippers will dominate the next 10 years!"

The excited Paul George became more and more excited. When he thought that he could win the championship again in the future, Paul George only felt that he was going to heaven.

The promise was naturally cheered by the Clippers fans. Everyone is looking forward to the new season. The Clippers will continue to crush the former league and abuse the game. It is really beautiful!

The Clippers won consecutive championships, which naturally made other teams in the league crazy about lemons. It's just that the Clippers' salary this season has just passed the poor line, and there will be a sense of powerlessness in their hearts.

The annual draft is naturally a good opportunity to scratch the lottery. Everyone wants to scratch out the next Li Ze, but from 09 to now, there is no one close.

On June 6, the 22 NBA Draft was held at Barclays Center in New York.

The 76ers, who won the No. [-] pick, chose the talented Markelle Fultz;
The second overall pick of the Lakers may have believed in the talent of "ball daddy" and chose Lonzo Ball;

The Celtics selected Duke University's Jayson Tatum with the third overall pick.

The top three picks all looked very happy after they took the stage, especially Lonzo Ball, when he learned that he was selected by the Lakers, he secretly punched himself excitedly.

Being able to play for a wealthy team is the pursuit of many new players.

The dust settled in the first round when commissioner Adam Silva announced that the Clippers selected Villanova's Josh Hart with the 30th pick.

Some people were happy and some were sad. Josh Hart, who was not at the scene, cheered at home. This cute newcomer did not see the frowning expression of the manager behind him.

The Clippers are notoriously introverted, and there are too many new players. Josh Hart will probably sit on the bench for two years when he joins the Clippers.
In the second round, most of the sports media paid attention to it. The Clippers selected Isaiah Hartenstein with the 43rd pick, adding another member to the Water Fountain Guardian.

The draft is over, and new players who want to report to the team still need to wait for the final transaction.

The Nets chose to send the freshly drafted Kyle Kuzma and Brook Lopez to the Lakers in exchange for Mozgov and D'Angelo Russell;
The Nuggets opted to trade Donovan Mitchell to the Jazz for Tyler Lydon and Trey Lyles;
The Bulls completely rebuilt, trading Jimmy Butler and Justin Button to the Timberwolves for Kris Dunn, Zach LaVine and Lauri Markkanen.

Rookies may represent the future of the league, and for teams pursuing the present, immediate combat power is what everyone is looking for.

The Clippers have a lot of high-quality role players, and their agents are running around. Without waiting for the free market to open, poaching has already begun.

Chris Paul, who returned to Los Angeles during the offseason, has recently started frequent appointments with Tucker.

The two are old acquaintances, and they have experienced three consecutive championships together, so naturally they have something to say.

Having just sent his son to school in the morning, Paul seemed to be in a good mood during lunch:
"PJ, how about playing in Houston? You will definitely be in the starting position here, playing time is not a problem, we can win the championship in Houston!"

"I think there is only one player missing in the current squad who can inject toughness into the team and we have a chance to become the new champions."

Chairman Pao was also polite, straight to the point, and directly issued an invitation. Tucker actually likes life in Los Angeles, but he is really dissatisfied with the Clippers' rotation.

"I've lived in Los Angeles for five years, and honestly, I love this city."

Tucker was also very happy to receive the invitation, but he still felt a little bit reluctant to leave the city where he lived for 5 years and the Clippers.

Paul naturally saw Tucker's hesitation, and seemed to guess what the other party was thinking, and persuaded with a smile:
"PJ, the Clippers belong to young people, and we are no longer young, this is not our future, believe me, come to Houston to play, you will gain more."

Tucker naturally knows the internal situation of the Clippers very well. Jaylen Brown is the future of the team. Next season, this young player will most likely rush to the starting position.

On the bench, Norman Powell and Kevin Rooney are also growing, and with the addition of Brogdon, who has already secured the vacant bench, the bench is also overcrowded.

As a veteran, Tucker is not afraid of competition, but in order to get better data, he does need playing time.

Frowning slightly, as if thinking of something, Tucker finally changed the subject and said:

"I need to talk to my agent about this, and I will fully consider your suggestion!"

"Let's talk about James Harden first. This year, I always feel that he is far behind Kayce."

When Paul heard Tucker's question, he smiled again. He has dug this corner!

The Clippers have very few veterans, but there are also conflicts in the team. Playing in the NBA depends on talent after all. Role players work hard, but they can't squeeze into the starting lineup. This situation will indeed occur.

Li Ze understands the team's contradictions, but he can't do anything about the head coach's choice of personnel. The data can be divided into one point, but the coaching staff always has a preferred player.

After the draft, it is natural to usher in the big event of the year. The league decided to reform this season, keeping the suspense of the selection results of each award until after the finals.

In the 14-15 season, the players union proposed the concept of the award ceremony. In addition to the awards selected by the league, the players union will also vote for other awards through the players themselves.

The host of the first annual NBA awards ceremony will be the well-known rapper Drake (Aubrey Drake Graham).

The TNT quartet will also be hosts. Generally speaking, this awards ceremony is a bit like the Oscars in the sports world, but it's a big difference in the coffee spots.
The awards ceremony was held at the Berkeley Center in New York City. This large banquet venue with retro style and luxurious interior decoration in the early 20th century is indeed in line with the temperament of the NBA league.

Since the dinner was held in Lower Manhattan, Li Ze naturally had to fly to New York to make preparations and start his holiday life by the way.

Britney's high-rise apartment was not big, it was a gift from her cheap father, but after several years of continuous renovations, the interior decoration was particularly luxurious.

On the morning of the 24th, Li Ze, who had fought hard all night, prepared breakfast energetically.

Seeing that the time had come to 10 o'clock, Li Ze had no choice but to go back to the bedroom and wake up the two girls who were lazy on the bed.

Perhaps because too many poses were unlocked last night, Taylor and Britney hugged each other, and they were still sound asleep.

"Ladies, it's 10 o'clock in the morning, are you going to sleep until noon?"

Lifting the quilt casually, Li Ze patted the money printer girl who had disappeared even in her pajamas.

There was no trace of shyness. Everyone has unlocked more poses in the past few years. Taylor turned his head and leaned into Li Ze's arms, and said in a daze:
"Just bring the breakfast in, I want you to feed it"

Just halfway through the conversation, Li Ze slapped her buttocks. She exclaimed, and the money printing machine girl, who had completely recovered from her senses, immediately turned to Li Ze, and said relentlessly:

"You promised me to stay with me during the offseason!"

Britney also woke up completely at this time, leaned sideways and said sarcastic remarks with a smile:
"Serve our little rich lady well, this is really a walking money printing machine, my dear, work harder tonight!"

"what!!"

Seeing the two of them twisted into a ball again, and screamed for a while, Li Ze rubbed the center of his brows helplessly.

The money printing machine chick made a lot of money in 16. The main income came from his 1989 concert tour, plus record sales, endorsements, royalties, etc., and his annual income reached a terrifying $1.7 million.

This kind of performance also made Big Machine Records completely profitable. Chapman can't wait to let Li Ze retire quickly, serve the money printing machine well, and get a lot of money!
Of course, Li Ze didn't hold concerts, and relied on his "creative" albums to make a fortune through streaming media. Physical records are in a downturn, but after a year, there are still nearly 5000 million US dollars.

This is the long-tail effect of hit singles. Since 09, the songs "created" by Li Ze have been popular on streaming media channels.

Coupled with the producer's share, Li Ze's income has also started to rise steadily in recent years.

But for his own people, the blond sister and Taylor, Li Ze didn't settle the score, and the two of them knew in their hearts that this muddled settlement was a tacit understanding between everyone.

These two girls are the only ones in New York, which is sort of their home base.

The two of them haven't spent a lot of money buying a house in the past few years. After Britney's cheap father entered the white house, he has a new way to make money. Currently, he is the one with the deepest bond of interests.
By the time the three of them had breakfast together, it was already 11:30, and Taylor, who was a little weak, felt completely comfortable after a burst of eating.
"Why does the NBA have such an award ceremony? I remember that your MVP won the trophy at the beginning of May?"

Taylor was naturally aware of the events held in New York, but he looked a little weird when he thought of the scattered awards.

"Of course there must be a sense of ceremony. After signing a large broadcast contract, the alliance will definitely continue to expand its influence. Is there anyone to accompany me to the awards ceremony?"

Li Ze casually asked the two of them, and Britney, who was eating hard, responded without raising her head:
"It's too boring, and the performers are not good-looking. If you don't go, you should pay more attention to the NCAA. The results of UCLA this year are too disappointing."

The guest performer is black rap singer Nicki Minaj, and this kind of music basically does not meet the taste of the three.
Taylor also shook her head aside, the money printing machine chick disliked that such an awards ceremony did not fit her status:
"It's not as interesting as the Golden Globes that Lily took us to before. This year's All-Star Music Festival guests are also good. It's hard to understand why the league always likes to invite rappers."

Li Ze curled his lips, of course the black brothers like it, the buff has become heavier and heavier in the past two years, of course this is also related to the one in the white house, the conflict has been deepened
"After the award ceremony, we will fly directly to the UK and then go to Spain for vacation!"

The itinerary plan was clear to the two of them a long time ago. It was mainly for Annie to relax. It seemed that they thought of new fun. Britney suddenly teased:
"Isn't our little canary playing with everyone?"

Candice also has blond hair, so everyone likes to make fun of this silly girl with a broken body and a very honesty
Seeing Taylor who pricked up his ears and pretended not to care, Li Ze said helplessly:
"We are just good friends. I never asked her to accept this kind of life like you."

The money printing machine girl was in a good mood at this time, she took the initiative to come to Li Ze's side, hugged her from behind and said with a smile:

"Isn't this a good life? We made a lot of money and realized our dreams!"

"."

On June 6th, at 26:8 p.m., at the Berkeley Center in New York, many big names in the NBA circle came.

Before the dinner started, there was naturally a red carpet ceremony and a photo session. Li Ze Harden did not bring his family members with him. When they walked the red carpet, they took a group photo together.

The bearded golfer is in a good mood, and there is nightlife after the dinner. New York is Li Ze’s home base, and high-quality nightclubs have always been Harden’s favorite.

Li Ze was still dressed in a dark blue formal suit, with snake earrings on his ears. As for Harden beside him, he was wearing a leopard print suit.
Guigui didn't bring Nina with her tonight. At the end of May, she just gave birth to her son, so naturally she couldn't attend the celebration tonight.

However, many family members came. At such an important moment, it is natural to share the joy with the family.

"Congratulations, Bro! You definitely deserve the award!"

After the three of them took a group photo, Li Ze immediately congratulated Guigui beside him. The regular season MVP, Guigui with 30+ triple-doubles should be sure to win the award.

Harden looked at Turtle with some envy. He also performed very well this season, but with the presence of Paul, he has not been ranked high on the MVP list.

"It's so cool that the Thunder team produced three MVP players!"

Harden was also chattering and yelling. If Li Ze, Durant, and Guigui all get the MVP, the Oklahoma City fans will probably break their defenses again.
"It's just that everyone doesn't want to see Kayce win three consecutive MVPs for the second time. If he wins the award, it's all luck!"

"Kayce, 7 consecutive championships, you did it, so happy for you!"

During the finals, Guigui was busy at home with his wife and son, so he didn't congratulate Li Ze in time, so he had to make up for it at this time.

Li Ze laughed and hugged Guigui, and the three of them entered the Berkeley Center dinner party together.

In addition to the candidates for active players, Vince Carter, Dirk Nowitzki, Grant Hill, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Bill Russell and others were also present.

The new players all came over to say hello to Li Ze, and the old guys also took the initiative to shake hands.

7 consecutive championships has indeed brought Li Ze's influence to its peak. Although he is not yet 27 years old, he has already shown his demeanor.

In the end, all the veteran players surrounded Li Ze. This invisible circle can be regarded as everyone's respect for Li Ze.

The Clippers had the most people on the scene, and Brogdon, Eric Gordon, De Nagro head coach and general manager Gary Sachs were also present.

If nothing else, the Clippers have the most awards tonight.

At 21 o'clock in the evening, after the business exchange session ended, everyone sat in a row, and the annual awards ceremony officially began.

There is no distinction between style and style, and there are many rappers present tonight. When Drake came to the stage in a white suit, the scene immediately burst into applause.

"Hey! Where's LeBron?"

"Oh! Unfortunately, I didn't get to see LeBron tonight. I've been looking around, and it didn't occur to me until this moment that LeBron didn't get any nominations."

"KD, are you on the scene? Stephen, where have you been? It's hard to imagine that the Warriors failed to break out of the West. You are the weakest duo I have ever witnessed!"

"Of course, I still want to express my highest respect to you. It is you who make the playoffs more exciting, and you make the league more star-studded!"

Everyone at the scene started booing, seeing other people being unlucky is always everyone's favorite.
There were no Cavaliers at the awards ceremony, and only Clay, Green, and Iguodala sat silently on the Warriors side.

The witty American jokes on stage failed to make the two smile. Obviously, they still haven't fully recovered from the loss in the Western Conference Finals.
The bearded golfer didn't care about losing, sitting next to D'Antoni and laughing.

The awards ceremony will not officially begin until the TNT 4-member group begins to host the show.

The first award presented was the Best Rookie Award. Will Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett, walked to the stage with Grant Hill on her arm.

After a brief speech, the big screen began to show the wonderful performances of the three candidates during the regular season.

Brogdon, Embiid, and Saric all showed expectations.

As Grant Hill read Brogdon's name with a smile on his face, Li Ze on the side immediately chirped. This is also the first award for a Clippers player!
The award ceremony that followed was almost the same as the result predicted by America's critics.

Giannis Antetokounmpo won the Most Improved Player of the Year award;
Sixth Man of the Year, Eric Gordon Leah overwhelmed Iguodala of the Warriors and Lou Williams of the Rockets to win the award;

The three candidates for the best coach of the year are D'Antoni, Popovich and De Nagro;
In the end, head coach De Nagro won the best coach award again with a record of 74 wins;

The best general manager of the year, Gary Sachs of the Clippers accepted the award with a smile on his face;
When it was the turn of the best defensive player, the defensive rounds of Li Ze, Green, and Leonard began to be played on the big screen.

In the end, O'Neill opened the envelope, pretended to be shocked after seeing the answer, and immediately said:
"Congratulations to Kayce-Li, winning the best defensive player award for the second time in his career!"

Li Ze was a little surprised at first, then quickly stood up with a smile, and hugged the surrounding Clippers.

Grimond Green's face was extremely ugly. He had great expectations for the DPOY award. As a result,
Seeing Li Ze who was thanking for a while after taking the stage, Iguodala on the side patted Green covertly, not showing weakness at this time.

So far in the awards ceremony, the Clippers have received too many awards
The other players on the scene naturally caught lemons, boy, has this become a celebration for the Clippers?
The regular season MVP award was presented by President Adam Silva himself, and everyone at the scene immediately cheered loudly after hearing the name Russell Westbrook.

Seeing that Li Ze did not complete his second three consecutive MVPs, the players present were completely relieved!
Looking at the talking and laughing Clippers, Draymond Green has completely broken the defense on the Warriors side.

After arriving, there were awards selected by the fans, and Green almost turned his head and left.

The best style award, the winner is still Li Ze;

The best performance award of the year, the winner is still Li Ze;
The best winning goal of the year award also belongs to Li Ze;
In the best moment of the playoffs, Li Ze blocked Curry in G3. With this shot, Li Ze won the award again.
As soon as the live music started, Li Ze would go on stage to accept the award, and at the end he said no words of thanks!

When Draymond Green saw Li Ze receiving awards in succession, his eyes froze for a while, and he only had one thought in his mind:
"Just give the award directly and destroy it completely."
