Chapter 697 "Clippers and Young Masters", officially set sail~! !

The home of the Sacramento Kings, in the "Sleeping Train" arena, the first game of the 2008-09 NBA preseason game has begun.

The opponents are the Kings at home and the Los Angeles Clippers with Blue Victory.

This is the first game of the season between the two sides.

Because it is a preseason game, the attendance rate in the Sleeping Train is not high.

Only less than 4% or so.

But the players are very devoted to the game.

In the first round, Jordan was fouled for being too aggressive.

However, Jordan quickly made amends, and under double-teaming with Hill, caused his opponent to violate the three-second rule.

"Hill's defensive predictions and defensive choices are absolutely top-notch~!! As long as he can gain a foothold in defense, I believe Hill can definitely play better and better~!!"

Seeing this, Lan Shengli nodded and said.

"As for Jordan, we should give him more time. After all, he is only 19 years old. A player who came to the NBA as a freshman must lack a lot of experience~"

Lan Shengli continued to analyze.

The game continues.

In the first offense of the Clippers here, Baron Davis took possession of the ball and came to the half court to organize the offense.

"Big Beard seems to have used all his energy in that matchup with the Mavericks, and now he can't compare with the leader of the Heiba ​​gang,"

Lan Shengli looked at Baron Davis and sighed.

"Maybe it's because of Byron's injury~ It really affected his speed and explosive power. For a defender, these two things are indeed too important~!"

Lan Shengli continued to sigh.

Here Byron gave the ball to Brand, who was in an important position.

After all, Brand is still the absolute core of the Clippers.

Brand hit the opponent with his back with skillful footsteps.

"When Brand is posting up, you have to create space for him. Although you don't have mid-range shooting ability, space is more important. Once Brand doesn't score, you can still grab the rebound~!!"

Jordan looked at Brand, who was playing back, and remembered what the head coach Dunleavy said during training.

Jordan immediately opened up the space in the other direction.

Created an absolutely comfortable singles environment for Brand.

"Well~, Jordan is right to do this. After all, if he stays in the paint, not only will he hinder Brand's singles, but he will also be prone to defensive three-second situations, like rookies who are used to college league rules. I often make mistakes like this.”

Seeing this, Lan Shengli immediately analyzed it.

"The opposing center has no shooting ability, double-teaming Brand~!!"

Upon seeing this, the head coach of the Kings immediately took measures.

The white center, who was originally facing up to Jordan, walked towards Brand in a daze.

Little Jordan saw that he was no longer defended, so he instinctively went to the inside to kill again.

Brand is not a player who only knows how to fight alone, and his coping ability is also very powerful.

I saw that at the first moment when the double-team was formed, Brand half-turned around and quickly threw the ball towards the basket.

Little Jordan stepped on the step, watched the ball fly over, soared into the air, grabbed the ball firmly with both hands, and directly poured the ball into the basket.

Little Jordan grabbed the basket, exerted strength on his waist, and even made a "carp kick" in the air.

Pulling the basket is shaking from side to side.

Jordan used his best method to get the first point of his NBA career.

Although it was only a preseason game, Jordan's performance is already commendable enough.

After all, he is only a second-round pick.

"Beautiful~! It seems that the chemical reaction between Brand and Jordan is better than I expected. Brand made up for Jordan's inability to shoot, and Jordan added height and impact inside. The two complement each other and bring out the best in each other, if we continue to play together and cultivate a better understanding and better chemical reaction, the team's interior configuration will be the top in the league~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to analyze.

Just a second-round pick, coupled with the No. [-] pick who has played in the league for ten years, has become the top insider in the league. This is indeed a bit exaggerated.

But what Lan Shengli said made sense.

The Kings quickly attacked again.

Like the Clippers, the current Kings are in a state of semi-reconstruction.

Chris Webber, Peja and others have lost their glory, and "crooked" Kevin Martin seems to be able to score points, without other abilities, and cannot become the cornerstone of the team.

The team has also begun the rebuilding phase.

While speaking, the ball came into the hands of the white insider again.

It seems that the three seconds of offense in the previous round did not make him willing to stop attacking.

Perhaps the white insiders also want to save face through a successful offense.

But Jordan was very tough in the back, and did not give the opponent too comfortable offensive space.

Seeing that Hill was about to double-team again, this time the white center forward passed the ball ahead of time.

Seeing this, Hill returned to his defender.

But the white center was still trying to get the ball. The Kings guard originally wanted to dribble the ball by himself, but seeing this situation, he passed the ball again.

But this time the pass seemed too purposeful.

I saw Hill once again made a very keen prediction, directly forming a double-team defense, and directly intercepting the opponent's defender's pass in the air.

After all, Hill is also a player with good physical fitness. The opponent's relatively casual lob is really too careless.

Hill broke the ball, and did not rush to the frontcourt by himself, but immediately handed it to the bearded man beside him.

The bearded man took the ball and immediately launched a counterattack.

I saw that the Kings were unable to defend in time, Beard and Maggette passed three times, and finally Maggette poured the ball into the basket.

"Pretty good defense~!! It is still absolute game focus, and accurate prediction of the opponent's player's movements. Perhaps it is the experience of four years in college that makes Hill really look like a rookie, and Hill really does not look like a rookie. This ball was not greedy for attacking, it gave a better beard to the attack line, and the handling of this ball was really sensible~!!"

Lan Shengli sighed.

The Clippers played like a rainbow when they first came up. Not only did they defend consecutively and prevented the opponent from making shots, but they also made two offenses smoothly. It seems that the mental outlook of the team is quite good~! !

"Crack~!!!"

While speaking, Jordan gave another "big hot pot" to the guard who was trying to make a layup.

"With Jordan here, the inside line of the Clippers is a no-fly zone, haha~!!"

Lan Shengli laughed and said.

With the outstanding performance of the two rookies, Hill and Jordan Jr., they belong to the "Double Juniors of the Clippers" and officially set sail.
