July 8th.
The Las Vegas Summer League officially began.
Thomas Michael Center.
The Los Angeles Clippers faced their first opponent in the summer league.
As rivals in the same city, there were still some grudges between the two teams.
Back then, Kobe had fought until he ruptured his Achilles tendon in order to bring the Laker into the playoffs, and his strength had plummeted.
The Los Angeles Clippers also bid farewell to the playoffs and even became a weak team that the other teams in the league could bully.
The tiger fell to the plain and was bullied by dogs.
The Clippers, which had been suppressed by the Los Angeles Clippers until they had no sense of existence, had become much stronger because of Paul's addition.
Not only did he become a strong contender for the championship, but he also had a very enjoyable style of play.
Kobe's aging and declining state gave the Clippers the ability to challenge the Los Angeles Clippers.
They even announced that the new king of Los Angeles belonged to the Clippers!
Kobe, who had hoped to make it to the playoffs again last year, didn't get his wish and retired.
The team ranked second to last in the Western Conference with a record of 26 wins and 56 losses, ending Kobe's retirement season in disappointment.
Last year's second-place pick, Brandon Ingram, had a terrible performance, and this year the Los Angeles Clippers drew the second-place pick again.
The magician John Xun, who used to be a tall point guard, seemed to be very interested in the tall guard. He used this precious second-place pick to pick the tall point guard, who was 1.98 meters tall, Ball Granzo Bauer.
Even though this guy's shooting skills were not ordinary, and it was a strange way of shooting with a sniper rifle.
Because of the presence of these two second-place stars in the summer league lineup, the lakers appeared to be a star in the summer league.
Coupled with the big mouth of his old man, Ronzo Bauer, who was shooting randomly, the attention on this season's Summer League reached a new high in the past decade.
"My son is ready to beat up all the rookies. He is a natural leader!”
"The MVP of the Summer League will definitely be my son. I've already set a small goal for him to win the MVP of the regular season within three years.”
"What is it? His shooting posture wasn't good? Are you blind? Just wait and see, my son will definitely lead the Laker back to the playoffs this season!”
"Without Kyrie Owen's support, LeBlanc can't win the championship again! Unless he comes to the Laker to assist my son, Lang Zuo will definitely lead him to achieve his dream of winning the championship again!”
“......”
Ren Xiao, who was sitting on the substitutes 'bench, put away his phone in boredom.
He really couldn't imagine where his father's confidence came from.
Immediately after.
Ren Xiao's gaze turned to the court and looked at the ball player, Ronzo Bauer, who was standing outside the three-point line.
This guy's shooting was really terrible. He had already gotten 0 out of 8 three-point shots.
The key point was that Brother Ball seemed to be very confident in himself and continued to shoot three-pointers.
"Clang!"
Unsurprisingly, he was forging again.
The score was 59 to 59.
The Clippers had tied with the two second-place winners, Ingram and Ball, as well as the young talents, Zubacs, Kuzma, and Hart.
One had to know that in the lineup sent by the other side, the highest pick was Bryce John, who was selected 25th in the first round last year.
The others were either second-round or draft picks, or even free agents from all over the world.
The Clippers 'lineup was one of the worst in the summer league.
But even with such a poor lineup, the talented team was at a loss.
Especially in the paint, the Clippers 'power forward, Bryce John, was in a mess.
The 2.16-meter-tall center Zubacs, who was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers last year, was pressed to the ground by the opponent.
Luke Walton, the head coach who was determined to win the summer league championship and build the confidence of the young talents of the Laker, was very dissatisfied.
"F * ck! What the hell was Ivica doing? Are you going up to be a giveaway?"
Immediately after.
Luke Warton turned to look at Ren Xiao and waved his hand.""Ren, you go!"
"Beat them up and show Ivica how to play a good center forward!”
Ren Xiao finally went on stage and started his journey of abusing newbies in the novice village.
Previously, Magic Johnson had specifically instructed the head coach, Luke Warton, not to easily reveal Ren Xiao's trump card unless it was a critical moment.
"Swoosh!"
The Clippers used a simple pick-and-roll cover, and the small forward, Jaylen Johnson, easily scored a three-pointer.
Ingram, who was defending lazily, did not rush over to interfere at all.
Very quickly.
Ingram, who loved playing solo on the team, made a defensive foul.
Ren Xiao came on to replace Zubacs.
Two penalty shots.
The Clippers guard gave the ball to the most secure point to score. Power forward Bryce John reported.
Against Kuzma and Zubac's defense, this guy scored 23 points out of 10 out of 12. He was extremely efficient.
"Hey, Zubacs is so tall, but he can't even defend against me, so you can't even defend against me!”
"You're from Yao's country, right? But you're not Yao. It's easier to beat you than Zubacs!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bryce suddenly accelerated.
Sure enough, not every single moving wall was Yao. He didn't expect it to be so easy.
The proud Bryce immediately chose to make a layup. At the same time, he was very disdainful of Ren Xiao's reaction.
However…
Just when he thought that the ball would be easy to lay up, a black shadow suddenly descended from the sky.
Ren Xiao's right palm pressed the ball onto the backboard.
"Oh, oh, oh, the big guy from the Laker who just came on the court gave Bryce a nail cap!”
"Yellow-skinned, black-haired guy, let me see what his name is?”
"The big guy who gave the nail hat is called Ren Xiao, from Yao's country, the Heavenly Dynasty!”
"God, this nail hat reminds me of the nail hat Lebrang gave Andre Iguodala in the finals two years ago!”
"There's actually someone in China who can complete the Lebrand-style Nailboard Hat? Moreover, he was a seven-foot-tall man. This guy's talent was too good.”
“......”
The commentator at the scene excitedly explained Ren Xiao's nail hat in an exaggerated tone.
After Ren Xiao completed the big shot, he jumped twice and took the rebound.
"Oh my god, what did I just see?”
"That Ren from China was able to quickly take off the rebound with a second jump?”
"This guy is obviously tougher than Ivica Zubacs. Look at poor Bryce.”
“......”
