Chapter 946: Summer United MVP ([-])
There is less than a week before the start of the summer league, and the list of participating players for each team has basically been confirmed.

Here Lan Shengli returned to the team base after a short two-day vacation and started to work again.

The most important thing at the moment is to make final adjustments to the lineup of participating players.

Although the head coach of the summer league is not Lan Shengli, Lan Shengli definitely has the right to make adjustments to the team's lineup.

"Hey, brother, can you do a good job in privacy~?!"

When Lan Shengli was walking towards the training hall, Taylor suddenly appeared and said with a smile.

"What~?! What are you talking about~?!, I don't quite understand~!!"

Lan Shengli looked at Taylor, frowned, and asked.

"It's not easy to keep my girlfriend a secret for so long in a city like Los Angeles where paparazzi are everywhere~!!"

Taylor continued.

"Hey~, I thought you were talking about something~, so it's about this~"

Lan Shengli listened and shook his head.

"I didn't intend to deliberately keep it a secret, I just let nature take its course~"

Lan Shengli responded and had already entered the training hall.

Taylor quickly followed suit.

"Did you see the news report~!!, and it's that kind of gossip magazine~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak.

"Although it's very gossip, but the reports are all facts, so it looks interesting, haha, I thought you were so busy that you didn't even have time to make a girlfriend, but I didn't expect you to be in love~!!"

Taylor responded.

"Then what does your girlfriend do~?!, I saw pictures in magazines, she looks a bit like a Hollywood actress, I can't remember the name, anyway, it really looks like~!!"

Tyler continued to ask, guessing.

"Don't follow the gossip, where are the Hollywood actresses, really, you can make up more than those paparazzi~"

Lan Shengli shook his head and sighed.

"It's just a reporter from the TV station~ Don't think about it~"

Lan Shengli explained.

"Hurry up and get busy with your work~, I'm going to start work~!!"

As Lan Shengli said, he had already arrived at his office.

Taylor also walked in naturally here.

"Okay~, low-key coach Blue, then don't bother me, goodbye~!!"

Taylor said and left.

"Really~, it's becoming more and more irrelevant~"

Lan Shengli sighed as he sorted out the documents on the table.

"But having said that, it seems that my relationship is completely public~"

Lan Shengli stopped to tidy up, thinking.

"It doesn't affect me at all, I just hope it won't affect Mia~"

Lan Shengli continued to sigh.

Speaking of summer league.

Because this is a game to scout rookies and some undrafted players who have not been selected by the NBA, each team can sign up for 20 players, including some first-year, second-year, or even third-year players in the team. Ability, but players who have not played well, many undrafted players proved themselves through the summer league, and got the result of being signed by the team.

So to put it bluntly, the competition in the summer league is much fiercer in the team than in the competition.

In order to allow the new team's chief assistant coach Harper to integrate into the team more quickly, the Clippers decided on Harper as the team's head coach this summer league.

Harper also signed a two-year contract with the Clippers before.

The length of this contract is the same as that of Lan Shengli.

Lan Shengli has two years left on his contract with the Clippers.

Harper's purpose of doing this is also very clear, that is, wherever Lan Shengli is, I will go there.

"Let's take a look, who do you think is worse on this list~?!"

While talking, here Harper came to Lan Shengli's office with the finalized entry list, talking.

"Okay, let me see, you sit down first~"

As Lan Shengli said, he looked at it seriously.

"Yes, basically everything is included, this is enough, after all, the players we mainly investigate are those few~"

Lan Shengli nodded and said.

After confirming the final list, the next step is to wait for the game to start.

And in this finalized list, third-year players like Hill and Jordan are definitely not among them, and players who have proven themselves like Harden and Love are also not among them. The one that attracts the most attention is Paul George, and the remaining players are basically some undrafted picks and some young players who have not played out of the previous rookies.

The general NBA summer league will be held in Utah, Orlando and Las Vegas.

And NBA teams generally choose to participate in the summer league in the nearest place.

So the Lakers chose to go to Las Vegas, a casino.

While speaking, the Clippers' first summer league game is about to begin.

Their opponent is the Portland Trail Blazers.

Harper, who is wearing a polo shirt, is still drawing tactics for the players with a tactical board, while Lan Shengli is sitting not far from the technical table, dressed in casual clothes and cheering for his teammates. Fu talking about something.

The two looked very relaxed and happy.

"George, you must take the initiative to attack when you have the opportunity. You must know that you are the core of this team now. Let me see your competitiveness, let me see your desire to win, and let me see your strength." Competition content~!!"

Harper looked at George and continued to emphasize.

"You must defend hard for me. It doesn't matter if you can't score in the offensive position. You must return to defense quickly and methodically. Don't think about being lazy, work hard for me~!!, or I will replace him~! !"

Of course, Harper, who is known for his tough style, will definitely pay more attention to the team's defensive performance.

"Let's get started~!!, I want to show everyone, show everyone my ability as Paul George, I want to prove it to everyone, I want~!!, become the MVP of the summer league~!!"

George has come to the field, looking at the scoreboard intently, thinking,

It seems that George's heart is still very high.

Having such a high spirit is also an important factor in playing a good game.

While talking, the game has already started.

The Blazers took the lead in jumping to the ball.

Because the Blazers did not have a high-ranking pick in this year's draft, so they did not select a relatively high-quality rookie. The players participating in the summer league are basically some rookies in the past two years~

While talking, the Blazers' offense got a chance for a layup by patiently passing the ball.

It is not easy to have such cooperation in the summer league, which is a stage where individual singles are the main focus and where individual abilities are displayed.

But it is not easy to layup easily.

Because the Clippers still have George as a forward defensive champion.

I saw that George gave up his defender and followed the opponent's dribble breakthrough to the basket.

The Trail Blazers guard didn't realize that there was a chasing player behind him, so he just made a simple three-step basket~
"The cast is just right~!!"

"Crack~!!, Clap~!!"
