I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 102 Getting Started (Fourth Change)
Min Congda's thinking during the intermission was actually not wrong.

If the Clippers want to stabilize the situation, they must control the rhythm.

In fact, relying on Kaman's low-post offense, the Clippers regained the initiative.

It's just that Min Congda overlooked that in the NBA, the personal performance of a star can play a decisive role.

Among team sports, basketball has the most individual heroism compared to football and rugby.

Because in basketball offense, you can really play one against five, and you can really rely on your personal ability to completely change the situation on the court.

And Curry listened to Min Congda's slander, held back for a while off the court, and after appearing on the court, he ignored Dun Levy's orders.

Throw it away when you see an opportunity, vote when you see an opportunity, and don't think about organizing or not.

Fortunately, Curry felt good tonight, and the Grizzlies obviously slackened their defense during the player rotation.

Curry seized the opportunity and beat the Grizzlies 9:2 alone, widening the point difference to 12 points.

Stop the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies, who could fight in the fourth quarter, were in a dilemma.

Hollins was wondering whether to let the main players who had just come down to rest reappear.

Or let the second team continue to play for a while and get through this time.

Hollins was caught in a dilemma, let the main force play, the main force is not well rested, and it may not be possible to win.

Without the main force, the second team is as bad as it is, can it beat the Clippers led by Curry?

As far as Curry's ability is concerned, it's really good to play as a substitute.

Accurate three-pointers, strong scoring explosiveness, defensive loopholes, come up with a bang bang beating, won't it widen the point difference.

Hollins hesitated for a while, but decided to let the main force reappear.

Don't rest, or you will lose if you rest.

Mike Conley's stool isn't hot yet, and he's about to get up and play again.

This is the head coach affected by the pressure of the record, there is no way.

Although Wallace's team strategy this season is to train young people.

But the head coach's performance in leading the team can't be too bad.

After all, the Grizzlies' lineup is still good, and it has been bad for several years, and has accumulated many high-level rookies.

The reason why this year is still mainly training newcomers is mainly affected by Griffin's reimbursement.

Otherwise, the Grizzlies will hit the playoffs anyway.

Otherwise, the ticket will not be sold.

Therefore, in order to keep his job, Hollins should fight or fight hard.

Dunleavy on the opposite side is different, without any record pressure.

Are you the main force?I'll still play with you as a substitute, if I can't beat you, I'll be knocked down.

Take the second unit as an experiment.

Dunleavy continued to use one big and four small.

Jordan is the center, Thornton and Novak are the forwards, and Curry and Collins are the guards.

The defense of this lineup is bad enough. After the Grizzlies played the main force, they really responded with a 7:0.

Dunleavy did not pause, letting Curry lead the second team to continue playing.

Curry hit consecutive three-pointers to attract the opponent's defensive attention.

Then he chose a three-pointer in the double-team situation.

As a result, the ball was scored again!

Curry faced a double attack from Conley and OJ-Mayo.

Forced a three-point shot at 45 degrees on the right!
The Clippers are completely messing around.

But you can hit them with random beating!
"Damn it, can this fucking go in too? Curry has a scope on his arm, right? What kind of plane are you flying? Damn, I should have known that he shouldn't be thrown around at halftime."

Min Congda felt a little regretful, Curry, why are you so obedient?
If I tell you to throw more three-pointers, you just listen. If I tell you not to exercise, why don’t you listen?
I heard from Ayesha that you wake up every morning to exercise and strengthen your body.

Follow what I say, if it suits you, you just listen, if it doesn’t suit you, just ignore it, right?
Min Congda couldn't bear to watch it any longer. Just as the popcorn in his hand was finished, he left his seat and ran to buy popcorn.

Leaving Wallace to watch the game on the field, he felt anxious.

The main lineup is on, and there is no way to overtake the score against the Clippers' second team?
After Curry hit the fourth three-pointer here, the Grizzlies' defensive focus was completely attracted.

At this time, Curry didn't have a head, and he wasn't Kobe, and the four of them didn't pass.

He decisively passed the ball to Novak in the bottom corner. Novak waited for a long time, caught the ball and hit a three-pointer!

Retaliated with a wave of 6:0 and reopened the score.

When Min Congda bought the popcorn and came back, he watched the game: 97:90, the Clippers led by 7 points.

Min Congda couldn't hold back, and said to Wallace, "What kind of team do you have, the Clippers can't beat it?"

Wallace was embarrassed and criticized, but after thinking about it, what is it that the Clippers can't beat?

Isn't the Clippers your team?You look down on your team so much?

"No, last time at the Staples Center, when he mentioned the attendance rate, he said it was a headache and he was not satisfied. His demands on the team have always been very high."

"Also, every time the Clippers win, his expression is very serious and he is not very happy. It is said that he is very strict with the players."

Min Congda didn't know that he had recently become popular on the Internet again.

One is because he scolded the referee in the last game, and the content of the scolding was spread, and the fans found it very enjoyable.

This scolding battle is really exciting. After all, referees belong to a group that no one likes. If you play well, no one will praise you, and there is a high probability of being scolded by the losing side.

If you don't play well, it will be even worse. If you win or lose, you will be scolded. Everyone loves to scold the referee.

Another one is the on-site footage compiled by the TV station. Every time the Clippers win, Min Congda frowns.

The scene is matched with the score on the scene, which is very comical. Those who don't know think that the Clippers have lost.

Everyone has speculated that Min Congda's loose and free daily style is just a disguise, and he has very strict requirements on the team in his bones.

Stern can testify that he said it all, "Smart is a very strict person with players, especially young people."

Min Congda said that to cover up himself, but he didn't know that Mr. President took it seriously.

It's all right now, Min Congda has another label of "very strict under the imperial court".

At the last moment of the game, the Clippers sent in the rest of the main players.

Kaman Xiaoxiao took over the game, drew two fouls and made four free throws.

He scored 27 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks.

With this performance, the opposing Gasol has no temper at all.

Wallace looked at Kaman's all-round performance and thought: "If he can partner with Griffin, the effect should be very good, right?"

The last time Min Congda said that Kaman could be traded, he didn't know if it was true or not.

The score was finally fixed at 107:100, and the Clippers struggled to win an away game.

Back-to-back away games are not easy.

Curry hit 4 three-pointers in this field, scored 17 points and 5 assists.

Min Congda sighed, he had nothing to say about this game.

There is not much turmoil in my heart, I am used to winning, and I am not as angry and desperate as before.

And with the $20000 fine, the road trip was worth it.

After the game, Wallace invited Min Congda to have a supper, and the relationship between the two went further.

Where there are so-called people, there are rivers and lakes, and the NBA is a place of complete rivers and lakes. There are more people here than anywhere else.

Take the player trade as an example, if the two team managers are not very familiar with each other, some traders are unwilling to do it with you.

I don't even want to answer your phone calls, so what kind of deal do I have with you?

If the relationship is good, everyone is willing to do some matchmaking transactions with each other, or even lose money.

Today I will help you at a loss, and tomorrow you will help me when I need it. Everyone, you help me and I help you, so that the business can continue.

They are all living in the same circle.

Of course, Min Congda is an exception. He didn't plan to make any trades from the beginning. The Clippers are a bad team, and it's over if they die.

But now he found that this bad team might not be as bad as he thought, and some deals should be done.

Therefore, he readily accepted Wallace's invitation, and Wallace became Min Congda's first contact in the NBA general manager circle.

From this point of view, he really got started.
