Chapter 276 The New Season Begins
On the first day of training camp, Shaquille O'Neal and Lamar Odom did not appear, which made the sideline media a little disappointed.

But the first day of the training camp was generally a good start, but Roy Hibbert seemed a little silent, and Lin Fei felt it. As the leader of the team, he felt that it was necessary for him to talk to Hibbert. Lin Fei I understand Hibbert's feelings. Last season as a rookie, he had good playing time. He was also selected to the second team of the All-Rookie Team. During the offseason, the Clippers' continuous big money was inside. He had hired three long-established inside players, and he was originally the team's first substitute inside, but now he was naturally placed in the back, and he felt a little uncomfortable. His agent even asked him to open up with the team and ask for a transfer.

The manager's words echoed repeatedly in Hibbert's ears, and a fierce struggle was going on in his mind, so that he didn't realize that Lin Fei had already stood beside him.

"Roy, what are you thinking? Think you have a girlfriend?" Lin Fei patted Hibbert on the shoulder.

Facing the sudden Lin Fei, Hibbert was obviously taken aback, and he relaxed when he saw Lin Fei, "I didn't think about anything, maybe I'm a little tired, it should be because I haven't come back from the feeling of vacation." Hibbert I feel that this sentence that I popped up on the spur of the moment is a good reason.

Lin Fei understood from Hibbert's flickering eyes that this sentence was just an excuse, but Lin Fei didn't expose it. He turned on the shower beside him, and asked in a normal tone, "How is your summer going?"

"Well, it's okay, it's pretty good."

"Roy, one thing I want you to know is that this season the team has brought in Rasheed, Shaquille and Lamar. A little less than last year, do you have any ideas, you can talk to me."

As a rookie, Hibbert was naturally embarrassed to say anything, not to mention that his personality was not extroverted enough.

"Roy, I want to hear your true thoughts. If you don't have any thoughts, I definitely won't believe them, but I can tell you that you are our future No. [-] center forward, and there is no second choice. Of course, this premise is that you Need to do better to keep improving and Nell and Mike believe you can do it."

Hibbert was obviously taken aback, "I am the future No. [-] center of the Clippers?"

"Yeah, you're that guy, don't you expect Shaquille and them to play until they're 40 years old? You should know that it takes three years for a center to complete the most basic growth, and this year is your second year. The team hired them. You have a great opportunity to learn and I'm sure you can learn a lot from them with your abilities and if you don't want to sit on the bench and wait for your opportunity and play limited minutes every game just tell Nell You want to leave, but I want you to stay out of personal considerations." Lin Fei looked straight at Hibbert.

Hibbert, the big boy's face instantly turned red and hot.

"Well, I think about it."

The next day, Hibbert asked his agent to dismiss the idea of ​​transferring. In training, he was like a child who had just entered school, constantly asking O'Neal and Wallace for advice on defense and offense.And Wallace and O'Neill are the kind of guys who can especially enliven the atmosphere, directly driving the atmosphere of the entire training.

Standing outside the three-point line on the left, Lin Fei received a pass from O'Neal. Looking at O'Neal on the inside, the man who had ruled the league for many years smiled. up the basket.

"Shaq, the pass is beautiful." Lin Fei shouted at O'Neill.

"Wow, I'm going to be the team's assist leader this season. That's how I count assists." As he said that, O'Neal picked up the ball and threw it at Lin Fei again. basket.

"Lin, the three-pointer, the assist from Shaquille, Shaquille is simply a super-large point guard." O'Neal's tricks directly amused everyone.

"Shaq, you stole my job, what should I do? Nell will deduct my wages, I'm poor." Andre Miller joined in with a smile.

After more than half a month of training, the tacit understanding of the new Clippers is getting higher and higher, but it still needs to wait for the test of the game.

On October [-]th, the Los Angeles Clippers ushered in their new season preseason. The Clippers will face the challenge of the Atlanta Hawks in a small county below Los Angeles. Numerous media have focused their attention on the Los Angeles Lakers.

"The new Clippers move forward firmly" - "Los Angeles Times" sports column title.

For two consecutive seasons, the Clippers lost to the mighty Lakers in the playoffs. They were extremely unwilling to lose to their rivals in the same city, but the fact is that cruel. The frontrunners in the arms race, and look at the roster, if only on paper, they've become O'Brien Cup contenders.

Lin Fei: The core leader of the Clippers, with super personal scoring ability, the NBA's first three-pointer, an All-Star player, his running position and three-pointer are still unsolvable. Last season, Lin Fei has already improved his defensive ability. Shown, his defense and offense will become more mature in the new season. I look forward to Lin in the new season. What will his statistics be?Where is his progress?Based on the data from the previous two seasons, I expect Lin Fei to average 25 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block and 2 steals per game in the new season. There is no doubt that he is on the road to a superstar.

Shaquille O'Neal: The former super center and superstar player in this league, everyone thought the Sharks were getting old, but last season's Shaq rejuvenated and became extremely bloodthirsty again. The new season's Shaq has reached his full age. At the age of 37, his state will definitely continue to decline, but for the Clippers with six major insiders, Shaq can make good use of his playing time to maintain efficiency. I think this is not a problem for Shaq at all. It is predicted that Shaq's playing time in the new season will not be around 22 minutes, averaging 12 points, 7 rebounds and 1 block per game.

Rasheed Wallace: Roaring Tianzun, one of the four major players in the league in the early 21st century, an All-Star player, the Celtics launched a vigorous pursuit of Rasheed during the offseason, but in the end the Clippers became his next Home, Rashid's experience will be a huge asset, and his playing time will not be too much at around 22 minutes, but I believe his data will not be too bad, and it is worth mentioning that Lin Fei Will Rashid, who likes to shoot three-pointers, learn more with the company of three-pointers such as JR Smith?If the three-point shooting percentage is as high as 40.00% in the new season, well, I won't be surprised. The predicted data for the new season is 10 points, 6 rebounds and 1 block.

Andre Miller: A traditional point guard, the former assist leader in the league, and an underrated point guard. He averaged 8.8 assists per game for the Clippers last season. His assists may decline in the new season. Why?Because Lin will participate in more organizational offenses, but Andre's lethality is still beyond doubt. In the new season, his average of 12 points and 8 assists per game is still his data line.

Lamar Odom: Once the successor of the Magician, he made great contributions to the Lakers winning the championship last season. No one thought that he would leave the Lakers and come to the Clippers, returning to the place where his career started. In the new season, he will Become the leader of the Clippers bench, and the best sixth man may be his.

Tyson Chandler: In the new season, he will still be the starting center of the Clippers, and O'Neal will be his substitute. Although he was blown up last season, Tyson is still an efficient defensive player from the detailed data analysis. The superficial data Deceiving people's feelings, there is no doubt that Tyson will perform better in the new season with stronger teammates.

……

Well, after analyzing the players, the advantages and disadvantages of the Clippers are also very obvious. This is where the Clippers need to work hard.

Looking at the Clippers with enough lineups to form two starting groups, they will encounter serious practical problems, that is, how the players' playing time is allocated, and the mentality of young players. Their chances will undoubtedly change with the arrival of veterans. Not every young man is willing to wait, especially Roy Hibbert, a recognized potential center in the league, has achieved good results in his rookie season, but his playing time in the new season will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. The arrival of Odom made the guard less chances, all of which require the Clippers to work hard.

Finally, I hope that the new Clippers will sail to the final destination.

This column analysis is just right, Mike. Dunleavy and Nell. Olshu do have happy troubles.

Facing the Hawks in the first game of the preseason, the Clippers used a five-man starting lineup of Tyson Chandler, Rasheed Wallace, Artest, Lin Fei, and Andre Miller, and then O'Neal . , In the end, they only defeated the Eagles by 5 points.

But winning or losing is not what the Clippers value. What they want to see is that the team can have a perfect chemical reaction, and the first preseason game is undoubtedly still working hard.

When the seven preseason games ended, the Clippers only won three games, but lost all four games within ten points. The team's strong lineup made Mike Dunleavy's rotation arrangement very troublesome.

The preseason games made the Clippers look like they hadn't run into shape, which made the Clippers look far less powerful than on paper. At this time, many hostile media directly jumped out and used various data to confirm the Clippers' strength. Power is the pseudo-power of the lineup.

Unlike most of the outside world, the Clippers' training is still full of laughter and seems unaffected.

In such an atmosphere, the Los Angeles Clippers ushered in the beginning of the new season. In the first game, they will go away to challenge a powerful enemy, the San Antonio Spurs. One of the protagonists of the offseason arms race is the same as the Los Angeles Clippers. What is more surprising is that Richard Jefferson, a quasi-All-Star small forward, did not integrate into the team in the preseason, and this game is also one of the three openers of the new season.

2009年10月29日，圣安东尼奥，NBA2009-2010赛季的大幕慢慢的拉开。
