Godfather of the NBA: Cutting Curry and creating a dynasty

Therefore, I think that a young team like the Clippers cannot beat the Spurs for the time being, at least for now, at least today, no!

Yang Li hid in a corner and heard all Popovich's speech, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

Today I am not only here to touch the Spurs, but more importantly, I am here to rob the Spurs!

Rumors about the Spurs wanting to trade Ginobili have also been circulating recently.

And just now Popovich did not mention Ginobili throughout his speech, which is enough to show that there is really a problem with the relationship between the two now.

At least, it's not as good as it was when it won the previous two championships.

Ginobili is one of the players that Yang Li admires the most. I believe any fans who watch the game know how strong he is.

Like those fake fans who only look at post-match statistics and career honors, they don't even know how good Manu is!

Ginobili spent his entire career with the San Antonio Spurs.

The only time when it is possible to leave the team is now.

Because Ginobili has a strong patriotism, he must participate in all international competitions in Argentina.

And it is precisely because he participated in too many national team games that he suffered from injuries.

And the latest injury has prevented him from playing full-time Spurs games until now.

Popovich has repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with Ginobili's behavior, saying that he does not want him to participate in these national team games.

But Ginobili is still determined to go his own way, determined to play for the country.

Just like Dayao, the light of basketball in our country, he is an excellent athlete whose national honor is above all else!

For noble people like Dayao and Ginobili, pure people, people who have broken away from vulgar interests and are beneficial to the people.

Yang Li only has admiration and respect in his heart!

Therefore, we must grab Ginobili to the Clippers!

"The Spurs are a veteran team. Although they have Tony Parker and Richard Jefferson, their core is always Tim Duncan."

"And Duncan is 33 years old this year. This is his No. 13 season in the league. His state is not as good as before."

Yang Li directly pointed out the biggest problem in the Spurs lineup, which is the core aging problem.

The core of the Spurs must be, and can only be, Duncan.

Tony Parker can only be the icing on the cake, and the real cornerstone is undoubtedly the great basic skill Duncan.

Popovich is also very clear that the reason for the current poor record of the Spurs is that there is no one inside who can help the old Duncan share the pressure.

However, Yang Li knew that Duncan was not really aging now.

It's just a temporary trough in my career.

Two years later, the 35-year-old Duncan will usher in the new year of his career again, but this is a story.

"The current lineup of the Spurs, apart from Duncan, does not have a reliable guy inside. Today I will take this point seriously against the Spurs!"

The reporters were stunned when they heard this, and the recording pens in their hands were almost cut off in shock.

There is such a head coach in the nba?

Before the game started, tell the other party about today's game plan?

Is this deliberately giving the other party a ecstasy soup?

However, the head coach opposite is Popovich!

Yang Li did not say this to confuse Popovich.

Instead, tell Popovich with real actions that you urgently need an excellent inside player.

so...

Popovich, what do you think of Chris Kaman in our Clippers lineup?

Kaman is indeed one of the few high-quality insiders in the West, and even in the entire league.

In the previous life, Kaman successfully replaced the injured Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy by virtue of his outstanding performance in the 09-10 season and was selected for the 10-year All-Star bench.

However, this is just Kaman's short-lived.

In the 10-11 season, Kaman's performance plummeted, and then plummeted all the way to the bottom.

Yang Li has been planning to trade Kaman since a long time ago.

Therefore, Yang Li let the Clippers focus on Kaman in the first half of the season.

Let Kaman become the core of the Clippers' tactics, so as to achieve results and statistics, of course, it is mainly to show his worth.

In this way, Yang Li can use Kaman to trade for his favorite players.

That's right, Manu Ginobili of the Spurs!

Although Manu Ginobili is now troubled by injuries, after his official return this season, his condition is even better than before the injury.

Although Ginobili is 32 years old, he is also a player who gets older and more demonic.

Now Ginobili is about to usher in a new peak of his career, and this peak will last until he is 36 years old.

Replace a star center who has only peaked for one season with Ginobili who has four years of peak time.

To put it bluntly, this business is robbing the Spurs!

So far, the plan seems to have been more than half successful.

With Kaman's current performance, he may not even be selected as a replacement.

nba fans will directly put Kaman in the all-star lineup!

At the beginning of the game, Yang Li arranged for Kaman to take the initiative to fight Duncan.

Before the game, Clippers assistant Chris Webber taught Kaman a lot of skills in beating Duncan.

Against Duncan, he has quite a lot of experience.

Although Duncan's strength is still not to be underestimated, he is indeed in a sluggish state at this time.

The 33-year-old Duncan, who was in poor form, faced the 27-year-old Kaman, who was at his peak.

The scene was simply too brutal.

In the first quarter of the game, Kaman scored [-] points on Duncan's head.

Clippers 39:23 Spurs.

If it weren't for Richard Jefferson's outstanding performance, the Spurs wouldn't even get 20 points in this quarter.

In the second quarter, Yang Li arranged for Artest and Millsap to take turns marking Jefferson, and directly misfired him.

And Duncan, as always, was bullied by Kaman for half a quarter of the game.

However, Duncan is Duncan after all, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Relying on his outstanding personal ability, Duncan successfully played Kaman several times in the back.

At the end of the first half, the Clippers led the Spurs by 66 points 50 to 16.

At the beginning of the second half, Yang Li changed a lineup, asked Ibaka to block Duncan, and asked Jordan to go inside to eat cakes.

The Spurs, with no one available inside, couldn't stop Jordan, the bouncing monster, and even allowed Jordan to seize the opportunity to dunk Duncan's head once.

Still, Duncan should get used to it.

The wonderful posters of various superstars in the league, many of which are Duncan in the background.

Duncan also wondered before, why is it always me who gets hurt?

Then he figured it out.

Only the top insiders in the league are shocked. If you don't believe me, let someone take a photo of Boykins.

See how embarrassed he is to make this photo into a poster.

Less than 6 minutes into the third quarter, Curry of the Clippers felt his touch and hit 5 consecutive three-pointers.

With the help of Reggie Miller, Curry's off-ball running level has improved significantly.

Even the Spurs, known for their defense, can't stop Curry who is crazy.

Curry slapped Popovich in the face hard today!

In a 20-6 offensive climax, the Clippers directly defeated the Spurs.

The Spurs, who were 30 points behind, simply gave up their resistance and replaced them with substitute players.

The end of the game was announced early.

After the game, Yang Li, who was interviewed, went directly to Popovich.

"Mr. Popovich, are you interested in making a deal with the Clippers?"
