Chapter 314 Against the Clippers
This space-time Yao topped Kwame Brown's No. 98 pick hat. In fact, the victim became the Clippers' starting center. The [-] NBA No. [-] pick Olowokandi, who made him the worst performing NBA ever One of the top picks in the draft.

If Olowokandi is not the No. 10 pick in the NBA draft, but an ordinary center with an ordinary pick, then no one will talk about him, but will praise him for his 10+[-] average per game in his peak period. The starting center is not a big problem.

But the key point is that Olowokandi was the No. 98 pick in the NBA draft in [-]. In that session, Vince Carter, Antawn Jamison, Dirk Nowitzki, Paul Pierce and many other fierce players were produced. Well, there are so many low-ranked players whose stats far exceed that of the No. [-] pick.
And Dayao 01 is relatively inferior this year, at least there are no players who performed amazingly this season, Tyson Chandler and Eddie Curry, as well as Eddie Griffin and Joe Johnson, basically have not yet sat down. The starting players of Wen's team have relatively limited playing time, and the statistics are very average.

The number one pick of Yao, Battier, Gasol, Randolph, and Arenas recruited by the Warriors are not inferior to any other rookies in the same class in terms of playing time and statistics, especially Gasol, faintly He is the best player in this NBA rookie class.

"Welcome everyone to the Oracle Arena. Today the Golden State Warriors are playing against the Los Angeles Clippers at home. This is a game for both sides. The Warriors are fighting for the top spot in the playoffs. Fight hard for the game tickets."

"The Clippers, with 35 wins and 33 losses, still seem to have hope to squeeze into the last train of the playoffs, but the premise is that they have to win more games in the next ten regular season games. The Utah Jazz and Seattle Supersonics ahead of them, He will definitely not obediently give way."

"One of the important core players of the Clippers, Lamar Odom often misses this season's games due to injury. He was suspended by the league for 8 games because of smoking something he shouldn't be. The Clippers management has begun to consider giving up on him. And to build a team around Brand, after all, Brand is extremely strong, and he won't be able to fight if he doesn't move around."

"From the point of view of height, Elton Brand is only 2 meters tall. It seems that this height is not enough to play a power forward, but Brand is heavy, with a weight of 03 pounds, even if he is against many traditional centers. Being at a disadvantage, just like Barkley the Flying Pig back then, ordinary people really can't stand up to his feats."

"Every season, the Clippers feel that the lineup is not bad, but in the end they always miss the playoffs. After all, they are in Los Angeles, and people will compare them with the Lakers all the time."

"Let's take a look at the starting lineup of the Clippers today. They followed the starting five that defeated the Rockets in the previous game. Center Michael Olowokandi, power forward Elton Brand, small forward Terry Mine Forski, shooting guard Eric Piakowski, point guard Jeff McGinnis."

"In the Clippers' lineup, the 2nd and 3rd positions Piakowski and Forski are pseudo-starters. The two of them play for 10 minutes at most. After all, Quentin Richard is sitting on the bench for the Clippers. Dessen and Darius Miles, these two giants have a very strong offensive ability."

"To measure the strength of an nba player, you can't just look at his offensive firepower. In fact, many nba coaches pay more attention to a player's defensive ability and court awareness. Clippers coach Alvin Gentry doesn't use Richardson and Mike There must be his considerations for Ernes to start, the two of them may take advantage of coming off the bench, it is definitely easier to play as a substitute than to play in the starting lineup."

"For the strong teams in the league, they can score more than 100 points in a single game and limit their opponents to less than 95 points. Except for the Spurs, 85 points are enough for them. It is very difficult for them to score 75 points in front of the Spurs. "

"As for those teams in the league who are not going up or down, their statistics are often more unrestrained. They average more than 100 points per game, and they can also score more than 100 points per game against their opponents. The two sides are fighting for luck and touch. Fans will definitely welcome this kind of game. .”

"The Clippers have a lot of scorers, Corey Maggette is also absent due to injury today, Brand, Odom, McGinnis, Richardson, Olowokandi, Maggette, Meyer Adams, these are all stars who average more than ten points per game."

"The Clippers' starting shooting guard Piakowski should not be underestimated. His three-point shooting percentage is 46.6%. Except for his weak physical confrontation ability, his shooting accuracy is quite high."

"The Clippers don't have a very strong point. There are superstars like O'Neal and Iverson, but the Clippers don't have obvious weaknesses. They can score in every position, and you can't miss that one."

"Today's Golden State Warriors' starting lineup, the center is still No. 11 Yao Ming, and the power forward is No. 15 Paul Gasol. He is the heaviest player in the Warriors besides Yao Ming. Of course, the little fat guy Randolph who went to the Development League Not counting, he is the right man to cover the Clippers' big tonnage power forward Brand."

"The starting small forward must be No. 1 McGrady, and the shooting guard No. 31 is Sean Battier. The opposing Clippers Piakowski is tall and long-armed and good at shooting three-pointers. Battier must limit the opponent's performance on the defensive end. The offensive end can provide a certain amount of three-point firepower, and Battier has a lot of experience in defending three-pointers with a height of more than 2 meters."

"Today Lenny dispatched No. 0 agent Arenas to start the Warriors point guard. The Clippers McGinnis who is facing him has excellent scoring ability and is good at organizing offense, but he obviously cannot be regarded as the top point guard in the NBA. The average data of 14+6 is not bad, but the efficiency value on the court is not high. It is said that the Clippers management will introduce other point guards to start next year."

"For the three or four hundred players who play in this league, it is always unknown who you will play for tomorrow. Maybe when you wake up, you will be informed that you have been traded to a team thousands of kilometers away. Those superstars, the vast majority of nba players are not for sale, they can be traded and eliminated at any time, for nba teams, business is business, players are commodities, they can be sold and bought at any time.”

"Clippers center Olowokandi and Yao Ming jumped the ball. To be honest, Olowokandi, who averages 10+10 per game, is 7 feet tall and weighs 269 pounds, is still very useful for an NBA team. Tabloid According to news reports, he is negotiating with the Clippers management for the next big contract, asking for an annual salary of tens of millions."

"There is a big gap from the NBA's expectations for Olowokandi from Africa. People thought he was the next Olajuwon, and no matter how bad he was, he was also the next Mutombo. people."
