After lunch at the Red Head Boots restaurant, Ball agreed to sign with the Clippers and become the team's vice president of operations.
Min Congda hopes that he can play a role. Whenever Min Congda accidentally makes the right decision, he must correct it in time!
But Min Congda asked Ball to correct the draft for him, which was a bit out of line. He didn't investigate it carefully at all.
Ball's drafting process in the Hornets was not bad at all. Paul, West, Davis, and Magloire were all outstanding players he selected and trained.
There was no other way, Min Congda felt a little sick and rushed to seek medical treatment. On the bad road, he felt more and more lonely.
There is no one around him who can discuss this matter. This kind of thing cannot be discussed, and the system does not allow him to discuss it.
Min Congda felt that if he could no longer find the correct bad posture, he would consider posting on Goupu to solicit opinions from netizens.
I'm afraid that by then the powerful netizens will also trick him, and I won't know who to take responsibility for.
In the evening, the Clippers faced the Philadelphia 76ers at home. The Clippers, who had won 11 consecutive games, returned to their home court with high morale.
However, in this game, the Clippers played very hard. The 76ers are not weak and are also a playoff team in the Eastern Conference.
The Clippers didn't play well at the beginning because Curry met Jrue Holiday.
Since his last rookie season, Holiday has performed well against the No. 1 pick in games.
The defense is tough, and the offense is full of aggression. He will stare at Curry.
Holiday's aggressive style of play on both offense and defense made Curry uncomfortable.
At the beginning of tonight's game, Holiday continued to defend Curry with all his strength, and focused on attacking Curry alone.
Curry's three-point touch at the beginning was far inferior to that of the last game against the Grizzlies. He missed two three-pointers in the first quarter.
The 76ers should have made targeted arrangements, and their defensive details are very good.
Rotate, don't lose position, protect the basket, and don't give the Clippers easy-ball opportunities.
When the tactics are not running smoothly, what matters is the hard power of the players.
The two sides struggled from the first quarter until the critical moment of the fourth quarter.
At this time, a major advantage of the Clippers appears.
No one knows who will give the Clippers the key ball.
In fact, the Clippers players themselves don’t even know.
Because Cole does not specify who must give the ball to him when arranging key ball tactics.
Instead, formulate a strategy and let everyone adapt accordingly.
Whoever has the best chance will complete the key attack.
In this case, it is naturally difficult for the 76ers to arrange defense.
As a result, Gasol held the ball in a high position to support the goal.
It was discovered that the 76ers had a gap in the middle.
He held the ball and went straight to the basket, and then made a two-point throw!
Although he didn't score, Xiaojia grabbed an offensive rebound and made a tip-in.
It also caused a foul by Brand, which required an additional penalty.
Min Congda was so angry that he almost rushed to argue with the referee again.
This kind of goal has been scored. Why did you call a foul?
Fortunately, his reason allowed him to hold back and not reveal his position.
It was precisely because of Gasol's key score that the Clippers defeated the 76ers 105:102, with a 3-point advantage.
It shows that in addition to the Clippers' tactical system, the players also have sufficient hard power.
With this victory, the Clippers' ranking surpassed the Trail Blazers and reached the seventh position!
Now Min Congda was a little panicked, why did he finish seventh?
The seventh one is to beat the Lakers.
Fortunately, in two days, the Clippers will face the Cleveland Cavaliers at home.
The Cavaliers are still a strong team in the Eastern Conference after retaining James this summer.
And under the guidance of Min Congda, the strength has become more balanced.
They currently rank first in the Eastern Conference with a record of 48 wins and 19 losses!
The Bulls and Celtics, who have the same record as them, rank second and third respectively.
The Heat, who teamed up with Wade and Bosh, only ranked fourth.
Of course, this ranking is only temporary, and the competition for the top spot in the Eastern Conference is obviously quite fierce.
On March 18, the Cavaliers arrived in Los Angeles.
That night, Min Congda quietly went to the hotel where the Cavaliers were staying to meet with James.
Of course, the two of them were not dating. Jiedushi came to Los Angeles to meet and report on his work.
In the hotel cafe, Min Congda waited for a while, and James appeared in front of him wearing a green wire hat.
Min Congda couldn't complain in his heart. None of these black stars have any taste.
What are these attires all about? It’s a waste of a good figure, and it’s probably not cheap.
As soon as James sat down, Min Congda asked: "I asked you to trade for Shane Battier at the trade deadline, why didn't you act?"
James sighed and said: "I told the management that I hope to trade Battier, but the Rockets are not interested in our chips!"
On the trade deadline, Min Congda didn't worry too much about his own transactions, and he did a lot of planning for James and the Cavaliers.
He selected for a long time and believed that the most suitable puzzle player for the Cavaliers and James at the moment was Sean Battier.
The Rockets are now in a rebuilding period and don't need a puzzle-type veteran like Shane Battier.
The Heat traded draft picks to acquire Battier, but the Cavaliers were hesitant.
Min Congda scolded: "You don't want Battier. The Heat took it. You may die from this operation in the playoffs!"
James said: "What should we do? We can't trade for reinforcements now."
Min Congda said: "Nothing can be done. That's it for this season. Battier will be out of the contract next season. If the Cavaliers have space and exceptions, they must win Battier! Of course, if the Heat win the championship this year, you win His chances are not good."
James nodded and said: "I understand, I will tell the management."
Min Congda is worried about James and the Cavaliers, and they all worry about this summer's free market.
My biological father is nothing more than that.
The two talked about the game that night, and Min Congda said: "By the way, LeBron, don't be merciful in tonight's game, fight to death!"
James said: "I will go all out even if you don't tell me. This is basic professional ethics. But...Mr. Smart, why do you want the Clippers to lose?"
James couldn't understand Min Congda's behavior.
Min Congda bluntly said: "Because I hope to be ranked eighth so that I can play the first round with the Spurs."
James was taken aback and said, "Why? The Spurs are probably number one in the league!"
James is still impressed by the Spurs' durability and strength, and his head was shaved in the 2007 Finals.
The score difference in each game seems not big, but in fact, the Cavaliers lost without any suspense. The Spurs are really strong in beating the opponent.
Min Congda smiled softly and said: "The Spurs are just local chickens. Our Clippers are number one in the league!"
I encountered some urgent matters and haven't touched the computer for a day, so I coded a chapter on my mobile phone and sent it. I’ll make up six chapters tomorrow.
