Chapter 248 Playoff Battle

After leaving the Clippers, Lan Shengli temporarily bid farewell to the basketball circle and returned to his classroom position.

And has started a new career as a Chinese teacher.

Although this time it is not working in a world-class prestigious school like Berkeley, this Oriental Comet Chinese training school can provide something that Berkeley will never be able to provide.

That is "freedom".

The female principal has already spoken that Lan Shengli can leave the job at any time without any reason, and what Lan Shengli signed with the training school is also a temporary labor contract, or an hourly contract.

It's just that this contract is very advanced. After all, the teachers who left Berkeley can be regarded as senior lecturers.

Lan Shengli's first class used the form of "speech", giving full play to his "extreme expressive" ability and his high research level for learning Chinese.

The female headmistress who was watching from the side also nodded frequently, and she was very satisfied.

It's just that it's not clear how long Lan Shengli will take classes here.

In short, Lan Shengli already has a job in Los Angeles, so he is not afraid of his parents coming later, so Lan Shengli can feel at ease.

As for Lan Shengli's old club, the Los Angeles Clippers, life is not easy.

Near the end of the regular season and the most critical stage of hitting the playoffs, the team lost consecutively. Although the rivals Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors did not continue their winning momentum, their victory over the Clippers The field difference is there, and as the number of games decreases, such a gap becomes more and more difficult to chase.

What's more, the New Orleans Hornets, which are ranked behind the Clippers, are even more eyeing. If the Clippers continue to lose, I am afraid they may fall to tenth in the Western Conference, and they will almost certainly miss the playoffs.

"The age structure of the team is aging, and there are serious potential injuries. As the game progresses and the season comes to an end, the veteran's already overdrawn physical fitness and the improper personnel caused by injuries will make the Clippers very troublesome. ,,"

The old Dunleavy recalled the remarks that Lan Shengli had analyzed when he was still in the team.

"Hey,,, really let him say it,,,"

Old Dunleavy shook his head and sighed.

"The old coach Dunleavy is more cautious in the formation of troops, and the rotation lineup of 7-8 players prevents the main players from getting rest. Long-term fatigue combat is more likely to increase the team's injuries,"

It's just that Lan Shengli didn't say this at the time.

If he said these words in front of the old Dun Levy, perhaps Lan Shengli really had no good fruit to eat.

While speaking, the last game of the Clippers regular season is about to begin.

The Clippers will challenge their city rivals on the road and are also direct competitors to the Lakers in the playoffs.

The Clippers' current record is 40 wins and 41 losses, while the Lakers' record is 41 wins and 40 losses, and the two teams are right between them.

This game may be the most important game for these two teams this season.

If the Lakers win, they will undoubtedly enter the playoffs.

Even if the Clippers win, it depends on the record against the Lakers and the last game of the regular season of the Golden State Warriors, which is also 41 wins and 40 losses.

It's just that the Warriors' last game was an away game against the Phoenix Suns, who have already locked the No.2 in the West.

If the Suns choose to let their main players take turns to prepare for the playoffs, then the Warriors will have a very high probability of winning.

All in all, the current situation for the Los Angeles Clippers is definitely not optimistic.

But fortunately, under the current situation, the Clippers at least hold the initiative to advance to the playoffs in their own hands, which is very important.

While talking, the game has already started.

"Since Shaq O'Neal left the Lakers, the team has not been able to return to the championship level. Although Kobe is still the same Kobe, his scoring ability is still at the top level in the league. The determination is still the person who is most like Jordan, and has changed from No. 8 to No. 24, but it is obviously difficult for Kobe alone to drive the entire Lakers,,, "

Lan Shengli, who was lying on the sofa, was also following the game with his old club.

After all, this is a focus battle broadcast live across the United States.

"I can't imagine the playoffs without Kobe, I must win, Lakers~!!!"

Dawei, who was wearing a Kobe jersey, was very excited and cheered.

It seems that Dawei is a loyal Kobe fan.

"You must not underestimate Kobe's ability to show in this kind of game. Kobe is a player born for big scenes~!!"

Lan Shengli also sighed, it seems that the Clippers have little chance of winning the game.

After analyzing so much, we still have to see the outcome in the game.

After the game started, the offensive tactics of the Lakers were very clear. The offensive position was to let Kobe get the ball, and then other players opened up space to create good singles conditions for Kobe.

This is also the tactic the Lakers have relied on most in the regular season so far this season.

"Zen Master" Phil Jackson's triangle offense seems to be difficult to play out under the current staffing of the Lakers.

"Old Dunleavy still knows defensive tactics very well,"

Lan Shengli looked at Maggette defending Kobe and sighed.

"What do you mean~?! In my impression, Maggette is not a defensive vanguard~!!"

Dawei listened and refuted.

"Maggette is indeed not a player who focuses on defense and light offense, but a player who focuses on offense and light defense. However, the old Dunleavy let Maggette defend Kobe because he wanted to use Maggette's physical fitness and height. And strength to counter Kobe."

Lan Shengli explained.

"But Kobe is still Kobe, I don't think a Maggette may be able to guard against it,,,"

However, as "Comi", Dawei didn't care about Maggette's defense.

"Old Dunleavy actually didn't expect Maggette to be able to defend Kobe. He should just want Maggette to consume Kobe as much as possible and let Kobe's physical fitness decline faster. This is the best limit for the Clippers. Kobe's way, although Maggette's defensive skills are not top-notch, but after all, in this kind of playoff promotion battle, I believe Maggette will show his strength to fight Kobe."

Lan Shengli continued to analyze.

I saw that Kobe had already started to fight back here.

The flexible back strikes and moves, the swaying footsteps that seem real and fake, and the sudden shoulder shaking, every movement makes Maggette extremely nervous.

Kobe has pushed his back to a more comfortable position, holding the ball in both hands, turning around while taking off, and leaning back at a 45-degree angle to the floor~! ! !

A mid-range jumper that leaned back and turned over~! !

"Swipe~!!!"
