In September, as several big fish in the free market were fished away by strong teams, the NBA summer free market has reached the final stage, at this time most of the "big fish" have been fished, if there is any left, it must be a big fat fish waiting to be sold.

However, this has nothing to do with the Clippers, their lineup is basically confirmed, and at most a few more water cooler guardians will be signed to guard their water coolers, and the team can start targeted training for the run-in of the new season.

Here's how the NBA's official website scores the top five teams in the rankings:

Los Angeles Lakers - Player potential: b; Management: A+; Salary space: d; Market attractiveness: A+; Draft picks: d; Overall: A+

Los Angeles Clippers - Player potential: A+; Management: B+; Salary space: A+; Market attractiveness: a; Draft picks: c; Overall: A+

Boston Celtics - Player potential: B+; Management: A+; Salary space: d-; Market attractiveness: a-; Draft picks: d; General comments: a

San Antonio Spurs - Player potential: c; Management: A-; Salary space: c; Market attractiveness: C+; Draft picks: c; Overall: A-

Cleveland Cavaliers - Player Potential: B+; Management: B-; Salary space: c; Market attractiveness: D+; Draft picks: d; Overall: A-

In October, the Clippers played five preseason games with a record of 3 wins and 2 losses, and there is nothing to see from this record, the three core of the Clippers, including the transferred Crawford, did not play, and the Clippers roster is a role player except for the rookie.

The backcourt duo of Dragic and Afflaro has been surprisingly impressive in preseason, with the former averaging 11 points and five assists per game in 30 minutes of playing time. The latter can contribute 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Garcia is not much different from last season. Uncle Jia, you give him 3 million. He can do 3 million jobs...... If you give him 5 million, he can still only do 3 million work.

Another striker swingman Matt. Barnes, this guy is similar to Garcia, the potential of the two has long been exhausted, they are both capable of an annual salary of about three or four million, and they can contribute seven or eight points in a game, while not letting their opposing players explode, this is their job.

Clippers fans have a good impression of Garcia and Barnes. These two players are very motivated on the court, willing to defend on the defensive end, and dare to shoot when given open positions on the offensive end, and both are qualified main players.

The elder Dunleavy plans to use Garcia, who has more three-point ability, as a starter in the new season, and Barnes will play as a substitute, but the playing time between the two will not be too different, and the playing time of the Clippers' No. 3 position is basically divided equally between these two.

Bill. Walker, the glass man, injured his knee again during training, and Dunleavy Sr. decided to use him for a season to cut off. Walker only has a one-year guaranteed contract. It seems that they didn't pick up the baby, it's a sick seedling. Old Dunleavy won't use him unless no one is available.

As for Jordan Jr., Clippers fans don't think it's okay not to mention it, he won't be sent off if he can't play half a game in the preseason, and the old Dunleavy doesn't dare to let him play for so long, Jordan Jr.'s defensive skills are too rough, except for his excellent body and active rebounding, he is basically useless.

However, little Jordan himself is full of confidence, his idol is Brother Panda, this guy is simply a brainless fan, he is killed and resurrected by Ji Guoqiu on the training ground every day, and he is still happy afterwards, and he always says that the team he wants to come to the most before the draft is the Clippers, hoping to learn something from Brother Panda.

Little Jordan actually has improved, it would be too harsh to compare him with the two brothers, especially this guy is abused by Ji Guo every day, and it is difficult to improve on the defensive end after a long time. Maybe after half a season, Jordan Jr. can become a qualified substitute.

In general, the three rookies selected this year, the most satisfying for the old Dunleavy at present is Dragic, European players have high professionalism, good skills, that is, strong combat power, in addition to the confrontational handicap, it is more than enough to be a substitute for Billups.

On the second position of the Clippers, the old Dunleavy was most surprised by Afflalo, this young sophomore rookie seems to have good potential, usually trains hard, shoots accurately, and has a high ball quotient, although his athleticism is average, his defense is not bad, and his offense is not bad, so he can cultivate it well.

The elder Dunleavy originally wanted Crawford to play the main team, and the recall of Afralo was to make him a substitute in the second position, but now looking at Afralo's state, the elder Dunleavy decided to let Crawford continue to play the sixth man, and Afralo played a fake starter.

At the end of October, just as the regular season was about to begin, the Clippers surpassed the Lakers in the last issue of the NBA power rankings.

As the regular season approaches, the media has taken a closer look at the strength of the Clippers, and the odds offered by major bookmakers to defend the Clippers have gradually decreased, because the Lakers only scored 1-4 in the preseason, which is too low for their team.

After the preseason, teams began to actively prepare for the regular season, and as the defending champions, the Los Angeles Clippers are the top players in the power list and the biggest favorites to win the championship this season. The media generally believes that they lost the watermelon and picked up the watermelon, and if Crawford did not adapt to the soil, the Clippers' combat power would have improved compared to last season, plus Garcia and Barnes filled the gap after Artest left, and the Clippers won the championship at odds of 1 to 2.

The Lakers are also one of the favourites to win the title, but their 1-4 preseason has made their odds less than they were at the beginning, and they are now 2 to 1 with the Clippers.

Although there were some missteps in the preseason, the Lakers' book strength is too good, and in last year's Western Conference finals, the Lakers almost sent the Clippers home early. This season's luxury is unmatched by any other team in the league.

The Celtics are in third place at 4-1 and are not much to gain in the summer, and while the Green Army has limited salary space and doesn't have much to gain in the summer, the Big Three are serious title contenders as long as they stay healthy.

In addition to these three most favored teams, the fourth and fifth places are the Spurs (5 to 1) and the Cavaliers (6 to 1), judging from the odds index offered by major bookmakers. These five teams are the ones most likely to touch the title. And to the sixth place of the Magic. The odds to win the championship turned out to be 15 to 1. The poor performance at the Warcraft Olympics has lowered the odds for Orlandos to win the championship. However, Superman is not suitable for the Olympic Games, and this year Superman is said to have gained weight and strengthened the strength of his lower limbs, and many people are waiting to see how the Happy Beast will continue to be beaten by Yao Ming in the new season.

Clippers: 2 to 1

Lakers: 2 to 1

Celtic: 4 to 1

Spurs: 5 to 1

Knights: 6 to 1

Magic: 15 to 1

Hornets: 20 to 1

The reason why the Clippers are favored is that many people think that it is due to the excellent performance of the two brothers in the Olympics, and the problem of not submitting the change of jerseys is indeed a bit scary for the two of them in the Olympics. Coupled with the old monster Billups and Crawford's nerve knife, the Clippers have surpassed the luxurious Lakers in the number of live broadcasts in the United States before the start of the regular season and become the team that attracts the most attention from fans in the new season.

Their first game is scheduled for October 30 against the Los Angeles Lakers, who are second in the standings.

This game is of course broadcast live in the United States, and everyone wants to see how intense the scene will be when the luxurious Purple and Gold team face the defending champions. This is destined to be a hot race in which Mars collides with the Earth.

The Clippers raised the price of season tickets by 40% before the start of the regular season, and now they are in line with the Lakers' ticket prices, and Sterling is moving fast enough in this regard.

However, even with the high ticket prices, the Clippers' season tickets for the new season are still sold out early. The group of unlucky people who couldn't get the actor last season have become Clippers fans this season. In this year's Clippers game, the stars in the front row seats are no longer as dim as ever.

This is the rise of the foundation, Sterling now wants to call the twin brothers dad, I am afraid that even if the two brothers call Sterling Lao Bi now, the latter will dare to agree!

※※※※※

The day before the first game of the new season, the two brothers and their teammates weighed and measured their bodies after training, and before the start of the season, the head coach had to know the physical condition of the players, although the real results of the measurements may not be reported to the official NBA website, but they should not be too outrageous.

Ji Guoqiu, as the boss of the team, was the first to come up to weigh and measure the height and nose depth, and the final measurement result was a height of 211cm, an arm span of 228cm, and a weight of 240 pounds; Ji Guoyi is 211cm tall, has an arm span of 228cm, and weighs 235 pounds.

"Damn, I've gained five pounds." Ji Guoyan actually didn't gain much weight in the gym, and he actually gained five pounds.

"You're all fat, it's true to see how much your strength has risen," Ji Guoqiu was very disdainful of dead foxes, he didn't train seriously, and he followed in Maddie's footsteps sooner or later.

Ji Guoqiu wanted to see how much his strength had increased, so he tried the bench press, and the final result was a bench press of 240 pounds. It's not impossible to add more, but it's easy to get hurt.

Ji Guoyi then went to try it, but the result didn't need to be seen, of course, the little fox's ability was very crumbling, and in the end he barely pushed 220 pounds, and he was half tired to death.

"Damn, what's the use of pushing 200 kilograms!" The little fox felt that his results were really embarrassing, but he was right, the bench press was not recorded at all, and it was really useless for the game.

Basketball basically does not use the power of the bench press, except for the Auburn Hills Palace when Big Ben pushed Ataina, it can be seen that Big Ben is really powerful. But other times, the power in basketball games is based on the shoulders and back triceps. In fact, the strength of a player mainly depends on his leg strength, so Yao Ming can withstand all opponents, Howard always shows off his upper body muscles, but there is always tragedy in the game.

The bench press and biceps curls, which are the most popular in the gym, do not help much in basketball at all, but affect their flexibility and shooting feel, with the exception of Malone.

Old Dunleavy smiled and said to the assistant: "Tomorrow, on our website, we will write 400 pounds of bench press for Brother Panda and 350 pounds for Brother Fox." As soon as the elder Dunleavy spoke, little Jordan, who was eager to try, almost missed and was overwhelmed by the barbell.

The Clippers players heard the shameless orders of the old Dunleavy, their faces were very good-looking, and their own coach was too good to blow, 240 pounds was stunned and said to be 400 pounds, this Nima is about to catch up with Big Ben, Howard saw Bao Zhun crying and fainting in the toilet!

After measuring height and weight and useless bench press, the Clippers players began to test the bounce, bounce speed and sprint speed, which are very useful things, and the Clippers are actually mainly for the two brothers to test these numbers jù, and the two of them were very perverted last season. At the same time, the elder Dunleavy also wanted to see how little Jordan's body side number jù compared with the two brothers?

The Clippers players are also very interested, and after Jordan Jr. joins the Clippers, he will show off his bounce in front of his teammates whenever he has the opportunity. Later, this guy angered the foxier brother, and a 360-degree crotch dunk made little Jordan never dare to mention participating in the dunk contest again, although his bounce is stronger than the two brothers, but the level of athleticism is not just bounce.

In the end, as soon as the results came out, the Clippers players looked at the results and sighed that their team's interior athleticism was probably the strongest in the league.

Ji Guoqiu is 211cm tall, has an arm span of 228cm, and weighs 240 pounds; Bounce 82cm on the spot, run bounce 90cm; The baseline switchback ran 11.40 seconds, and the 3/4 sprint was 3.25 seconds.

Ji Guoyi is 211cm tall, has an arm span of 228cm, and weighs 235 pounds; 78cm bounce on the spot, 90cm bounce for running; The baseline switchback ran 11.22 seconds and the 3/4 sprint was 3.18 seconds.

Little Jordan is 209cm tall, has an arm span of 220cm, and weighs 245 pounds; 85cm bounce on the spot, 95cm bounce for running; The baseline switchback ran in 12.35 seconds, and the 3/4 sprint was 3.39 seconds.

The elder Dunleavy looked at the physical test number jù, this result was not unexpected by him, the two brothers bounced a lot stronger than when they first entered the league, and the switchback and sprint speed were also a little faster, this is the result of training. Jordan Jr. is better than the two in terms of jumping, but his arm span is not as good as that of the two brothers, and his speed is also a lot slower, especially the full-court switchback run, which means that he can't play the fast down of the two brothers on the court.

However, Jordan Jr. has only just entered the league, and after a season or two of training, it will be better to think that some numbers will be better than now.

But then again, it's useless to be in good health in the NBA, just look at Jordan Jr.'s template, and the best template given to him by the outside media is Tyson. Chandler, of course you can have this. But the worst template is Stromeyer. Swift, this is a pain.

The elder Dunleavy knew that Jordan Jr. fell from the lottery area to the second round, because he was considered to be very similar to Dasi, although the latter had a ridiculously low basketball IQ and was hurt by a bug all the time, but at least he had a good attitude and listened to the coach. In the end, he still couldn't play, so the comprehensive body was not as good as Dasi's little Jordan, of course, no one dared to ask for it.

"It doesn't matter, even if you can't practice on the offensive end, you may be able to become Tyson if you are beaten up by Brother Panda every day. Chandler, that's earned. Dunleavy Sr. looked at Jordan Jr. and thought to himself, hoping he could be the kind of player on the best template. (To be continued......) R1292
