Godfather of the NBA: Cutting Curry and creating a dynasty

"Space." Mirsap said with understanding.

"That's right." Yang Li nodded, then took out the tactical board and explained while drawing.

"When a team has players with long-range shooting ability at the top of the arc, the corner and the weak side, it can leave enough offensive space for the team's players to attack the basket."

"Except for Chriss and DeAndre, I hope you all have the ability to shoot three-pointers."

Yang Li said and looked at Millsap.

"Especially you, Paul, you have excellent singles and coping skills. If you can develop the three-point ability, you will be unstoppable."

"I see, coach!" Millsap nodded solemnly.

He saw Ibaka's performance just now. This is still an immature rookie player.

If it's me, and I have the ability to shoot three-pointers.

During the official match, the opponent really had nothing to do with him.

"Chris, don't worry."

Seeing Kaman frowning, Yang Li smiled and said to him.

"This season, I will formulate a set of special singles tactics for you. You can play to your heart's content in the penalty area, but you must remember that if you are double-teamed, you must pass the ball to the outside player as soon as possible."

"Finally, what I want to tell you is that offense wins games and defense wins championships!"

Yang Li said and pointed to Uduka.

"From today onwards, in addition to the original training program, everyone will also practice defense under Amy's supervision!"

Time flies like an arrow, time flies, and a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

The time came to May 2009, 10.

Today is the opening day of the 09-10 NBA season.

The design of the opening game is very interesting. The venue is set at the Staples Center, and the two sides of the battle are the Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Los Angeles Clippers.

At the same time, before this game, the 08-09 season championship ring awarding ceremony will also be completed.

Many celebrities outside the basketball circle came to the Staples Center today.

Charlize Theron won an Academy Award for her performance in The Devil.

There is also the famous Hollywood movie star Andy Garcia, who became famous in one fell swoop with the gold medal supporting role in "The Godfather 3".

And the world-recognized Kobe's number one die-hard fan-Oscar actor Jack Nicholson.

Of course, there is also the best defensive player in nba that makes countless players and coaches in the league frightened - the Kardashian sisters!

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the Kardashians are sitting right behind the Clippers' bench at the moment.

Sisters Jin and Kohler are carefully looking at Yang Li, the youngest team coach in NBA history.

And Taylor Swift, Yang Li's current girlfriend, happened to be attending an event today, so she couldn't come to the opening match.

In the middle of the field, league commissioner David Stern and Jeanie Buss stood next to the championship trophy, smiling to greet Jerry West.

This is the 15th championship in the history of the Los Angeles Lakers. As a famous Lakers legend, Mr. Logo is very happy.

The core player of the Lakers championship this time, Kobe Bryant, was the one who brought the Lakers back then.

It can be said that without Mr. West, there would be no Lakers championship this year.

At this moment, a burst of cheers like a tsunami suddenly erupted at the exit of the player tunnel.

At the Staples Center, there is only one person who can get this kind of treatment.

Kobe!

Kobe, wearing a purple and gold tracksuit, ran out of the tunnel with a smile, his face full of happiness.

He came to the side of the championship trophy and hugged David Stern, Aunt Jenny and Mr. West in turn.

Afterwards, members of the Lakers came out of the player channel one by one, and after getting the championship ring, they couldn't wait to put it on their hands.

Kobe raised his hand and expressed his gratitude to the fans who came to the scene 360 ​​degrees.

Yang Li got up, looked at Kobe, smiled and clapped his hands.

A group of players behind him stood in a neat row with Yang Li, and paid respects to Kobe by applauding.

Kobe spotted Yang Li not far away, smiled and showed Yang Li the championship ring on his hand.

Yang Li suddenly waved his fist with a serious expression, telling Kobe that I can also get the championship ring with my own ability.

Taking advantage of the warm-up time of the two teams, the three on-site commentators also discussed today's game intensely.

Brian Anderson from tnt, sitting on the far left of the commentary booth.

The two guests sitting on his right are two retired stars that two fans and friends are very familiar with.

Reggie Miller and Chris Webber, both are future Hall of Famers.

"Reggie, do you know Stephen Curry, the No. 6 pick of the Clippers this year? He, like you, is an excellent three-point shooter." Anderson said.

"Of course." Miller nodded. "A month ago, I had this annoying guy on the phone and told me I had to watch Steph play."

"Hahaha, the guy you're talking about is Ron." Anderson pointed at Artest who was warming up.

"Who else could it be?" Miller spread his hands, then looked at Curry and said, "I have been friends with his father Dell for many years, and I hope his son will not let me down."

"Okay, then Chris, is there any player in the Clippers that you admire more?" Anderson asked Webber again.

"Paul Millsap," Weber said, pointing at Millsap.

"I've watched him play, and although he's relatively small for a 4, he's solid, he has a good half-shot, he can also support at the top of the arc, especially his defensive ability is very strong , he can even defend the No. 5 position."

"Wow." Miller said with a sudden smile, "Why do you feel like you are talking about yourself when you say these characteristics?"

"Hahahaha!" The three of them looked at each other, and then burst out laughing.

"Then..." Anderson suddenly put away his smile, looked at Yang Li on the Clippers' bench and said, "What do you think of the new head coach of the Clippers?"

"You finally got the point." Weber pointed to Anderson, "I guess you must ask this question. To be honest, not only me, but everyone in the league knows nothing about this yellow boy. .”

"And." Miller took the words and said, "I asked about him from those alumni who are still working at UCLA, and no one has even seen him play on campus."

"You mean." Anderson pouted and shook his head, "He's a complete layman?"

"I'm afraid so," Miller said, spreading his hands.

"I don't know where he made the money, but a young man in his early 20s, who bought an NBA team and appointed himself as the head coach, this farce may be revealed by the NBA officials within half a year blocked."

"Reggie, do you want to make a bet?" Yang Li suddenly stood up, recovered his senses and shouted at Miller.
