Chapter 181 The Man's Promise
With the official announcement of the three teammates of the Clippers, Wizards and Cavaliers, the discussion on this transaction reached its peak, while the odds of the Clippers and the Cavaliers continued to decline, while the odds of the Lakers' championship increased in the opposite direction, and the other teams remained basically unchanged.
Such a dynamic shows that the actuaries are only optimistic about three teams competing for the championship. The prediction of the outcome between the Lakers and the Clippers has become a gathering place for gambling. A prince from the United Arab Emirates threw millions of dollars to support the Clippers to reach the finals .
Su Yang flew back to Los Angeles according to the plan, and initiated a dinner party to send El Thornton off as usual.
Thornton was in a very happy mood. First, he would get more ball rights if he went to rebuild the team. Second, he established a friendship with Su Yang. During the meeting, he patted the table and promised that if he needed help in a few years, he would definitely join him with an unconditional basic salary.
Early the next morning, Su Yang rushed to the training base and saw Drew Gooden who flew over from Washington overnight.
As the top player in the Adidas training camp and the famous University of Kansas, Gooden is good at mid-range shooting, and his footwork at the basket is not bad, which can enrich the Clippers' tactical options, but the defense is almost meaningless.
This is the second time Gooden has been traded within a week. Before the All-Star Game, he was still playing for the Mavericks. He was sent to the Wizards on the day of the game. to the Clippers.
However, as a native of Los Angeles, Gooden is very happy to be able to return to his hometown to play games.
Su Yang took Gudeng to visit the entire training base, and called a welcome dinner ceremony for the whole team at noon.
However, because the three-party transaction medical examination procedure has not yet been completed, Gooden is temporarily unable to play in the game.
That night, the Clippers team faced the Kings.
Su Yang continued to try Ray Allen's off-the-ball running style, wandering around like a butterfly wearing flowers, looking for opportunities to pass the ball when he was attracted to double-teams, and easily made 17 of 10 shots in the game, scoring 30 points and 6 assists , with only 1 error.
And Davis sent 12 assists, and Gordon also scored 22 points, which can be regarded as a soldier for all.
Van Gundy is very satisfied with this change and said that he will continue to try and adapt.
The Clippers rested for two days and continued to sit at home against the Oklahoma Thunder.
Suhang still adopts Ray Allen's traditional shooting guard style, but Sefolosha has a strong ability to chase and defend without the ball, and interferes with predictions from time to time, resulting in only 9 of 4 shots in the first 1 minutes of the game. It can be said that there is no threat.
Fortunately, Su Yang played his best on the defensive end, making Westbrook, Harden, and Sefolosha a total of 6 of 1 shots. Jeff Green was also interfered by his shrinking pincers and forcibly helped the Clippers reach a tie with the Thunder. That counts as a four-in-one.
In the second quarter, the Thunder team strengthened their defense, and there were no routines, just man-to-man relying on talent.
But that alone made it difficult for the Clippers to play, falling behind by 5 points after halftime.
Back in the third quarter, it was still difficult for Su Yang to get a shot by running without the ball. Davis and Randolph made 11 shots in total.
This situation continued until the end of the game, Su Yang decided to take over the game and hit consecutive difficult goals.
Unfortunately, Durant also hit the fairy ball consecutively, always helping the Thunder to stay ahead.
最终,快船以79比83输掉比赛,苏阳全场10投4中得到15分。
Originally planned to arrange for Drew Gooden to appear on the stage, because he was always behind, he didn't make it for half a minute.
After the interview and press conference, Su Yang and the coach conducted a detailed post-match replay.
After an hour of discussion, the conclusion is that Su Yang can’t run purely like Ray Allen, and has to look for opportunities to attack with the ball from time to time. Otherwise, he will easily fail to open the situation when he encounters a strong defensive team, which will cause the whole team to stagnate. .
The effect of playing like this before was not bad because of the Trail Blazers without Roy, the Eagles' Joe Johnson's defense was biased, and the king's team stretched across, which made Su Yang and the coach confused. Fortunately, Cypher Rosa's defense is awesome.
The solution is to imitate the swingman style of Kobe and Jordan, where it needs to be inserted.
But it's just one sentence, but in reality, it's a lot of tactical arrangements, and it takes a lot of time to adjust.
Fortunately, there is still a long time before the end of the regular season, so the team need not feel nervous.
After two days of rest, the Clippers played against the Pistons at home.
Tayshaun Prince and Sefolosha are the same type of defender. Su Yang took the opportunity to use it as an experiment, or run with the screen to catch the ball and shoot, or catch the ball to open up space and play alone. The effect is obviously much better than before. .
During the halftime break, the commentators praised the Clippers' new ideas in various ways, and many viewers felt confused.
The main question is that when the Clippers played double point guards in the past, Su Yang also played this way, and there seemed to be no difference.
The commentator emphasized that this time it is a new division of labor and clear thinking, so that other players can better position themselves.
Back in the second half, the Clippers continued to suppress.
Su Yang began to try to defend the long-distance running monster Hamilton, and Hamilton is a traditional shooting guard who is good at running without the ball. It is equivalent to thinking backwards about how to get rid of Sefolosha's defense by the way, which is equivalent to killing two birds with one stone.
It took more than ten minutes to complete. Based on previous experience, Su Yang believes that the main thing is not to hang up the defensive players, because once they are hung up, it will be difficult to grab the rhythm of the "short-term error position" by counter-running and other means.
In the end, the Clippers won 102 to 91.
New aid Drew Gooden played more than 5 minutes and scored 12 points efficiently, winning the cheers of the audience.
After playing the Pistons, the whole team had a two-day holiday, and then set foot on two consecutive trips in the Pacific Division.
The first leg flew to Arizona to challenge the Suns, a battle of wits and courage lasted for four quarters, and they narrowly won by three points.
In the second leg, they flew to Sacramento to challenge the Kings. They suppressed ruthlessly throughout the process and won by [-] points.
On the first day of March, the Clippers returned to Los Angeles to host the Jazz.
Before the start of the game, Su Yang received the best player trophy in the Western Conference in February and the best rookie trophy.After the game started, Su Yang discovered that the defender had become CJ Myers, and the Jazz's original starting shooting guard Ronnie Brewer had been sent away.
Su Yang was quite confused about the Jazz's operation, thinking that the backcourt gave up defense?
He tried a few times with the ball, and found that Miles' ability to defend and hold the ball was much worse than Brewer's, and his ability to defend without the ball was even worse, so he unceremoniously caught the ball and made three-pointers in a row, making six out of seven shots in the first quarter. middle.
Under the leadership of Su Yang, the Clippers directly defeated the Jazz, and all the main players stayed on the sidelines to watch the game in the fourth quarter.
The Jazz stubbornly chose the main force to deal with it, but in the end, they still lost by 4 points.
Just after the game, ESPN released a news pointing out that the Clippers had a record of 60 wins and 51 losses in the first 9 games of the season. Even if they lost all the next 22 games, their record would be better than that of the Rockets, which is currently ranked ninth, and they will be locked in the Western Conference playoffs ahead of schedule. quota.
The Clippers' official Twitter retweeted the news, announcing their return to the playoffs after a lapse of five years, opening a new chapter.
There was also a video attached to the forwarding. The content of the screen was last year's draft. Su Yang jumped onto the platform and shouted: "I'm coming! Please prepare to win big and win big!"
