Harvey, editor of the Los Angeles Times, wrote an article like this.

……

At training camp for the Los Angeles Clippers.

A group of people, after training, are gathering together to read today's newspaper.Moreover, today's newspapers are all commenting, and even in some intense places, they will start to curse loudly.

"We are the best team in the league...****, rookie, do you think we don't exist? How dare you be so arrogant. Wait a minute and ask him to look good." After reading the newspaper, wearing No. 19 of the Clippers Sam Cassell, a very tall and thick man, said with a very disdainful face.

"What is invincible? A shit rookie dares to say such harsh words when he just entered the league and made a small achievement. It seems that you have to show some color." Chris Kaman, the white center of the Clippers, also Then he booed next to him.

"Shabu...shabu..." All the players of the Clippers cast their eyes on a big basketball player with a big beard.

After the big man saw the newspaper, he crushed the newspaper in his hand angrily, gritted his teeth in hatred, and looked ahead viciously, "Michael Jack, right! Your good days are coming to an end. "This person is Brand, the captain of the Clippers.

……

Before the start of the game between the Hornets and the Clippers, basketball players from both sides were interviewed by the media.

The gate of the Clippers training camp had just been opened, and the reporters at the gate poured into the arena like a tide.

"The rookie king of the Hornets, Michael Jack, once claimed that he would definitely win this game. What do you think about this?" A tall female reporter asked excitedly.

"Rookie King" Michael Jack, who is it!I don't know, but I want to tell him that our Clippers are sure about today's game. "Sam Cassell yelled at the camera while wiping the sweat on his forehead with a towel.

The reporters in the audience were in an uproar.

"Judging from your current games, it seems that your statement is not convincing!" A tall female reporter with permed hair asked very quickly.

"Are you underestimating our Clippers? I, Sam Cassell, told you clearly here today. We will definitely win this game. Moreover, we must win beautifully. At least [-] points .” Sam Cassell grabbed the microphone of this female reporter and began to speak nonsense.In the end, he even raised two fingers arrogantly.

"Then what is your self-confidence? Their Michael Jack is a very difficult opponent. Do you have any special strategies for dealing with Michael Jack?" A fat and chubby reporter struggled to kill him from the group of reporters. He came out, straightened his hand, and asked with the microphone upright.

"That's right, this time our whole team is defending against him. Our strategy this time is to contain his offense. We will let this bullshit "Rookie King" score no more than five points. You guys Just watch!" Sam Cassell couldn't help being annoyed when he saw that the reporters were always mentioning Jack.

Elton Brand, the leader of the Clippers next to him, also stood up, with a straight face, grabbed the microphone in the reporter's hand, and said blankly: "About this issue, when everyone is in the game, they will naturally have questions. We've got it. We must be the ones who win in the end. I don't want to say anything else!"

After finishing speaking, he directly squeezed away the reporters standing in front of him, and came to open the Clippers training camp.

Seeing that the boss was leaving, Cassel, as the younger brother, naturally followed behind.

Hornets locker room.

Byron Scott did not let go of these few minutes. He stood by the wall with a huge tactical diagram, and kept sketching the tactical arrangement for the first quarter with a pen.

"Wait a minute, let's hit the ball to Michael Jack's point first, start from Jack's point. Jack, are you ready?"

Full of confidence, Jack nodded firmly.Is it just an offense?I will definitely do it perfectly.Jack thought to himself.

"Chris Paul, you guys try to make room for the inside line, I want to see how they play."

"Yes! Coach."

"And what I want to emphasize is your defense. Offense can win the box office, and defense can win championships. I hope you will always keep this sentence in your heart. You may not score, but you must give I firmly stand against my own people. I hope you don’t pay too much attention to the gossip from the outside world, you just need to concentrate on playing well for me.” Byron Scott was also able to glance at the people present After more than a dozen balls, he took a pen and drew circles on the recording board.
