489-The Clippers' new lineup

As Ace thought, as soon as he arrived at the Clippers' training hall, a large number of media reporters surrounded him one after another. It was not that the media didn't want to block him at Ace's doorstep, but that this guy had too many real estate. Just his villa in Los Angeles, there were as many as eight. Of course, this also included two villas from his grandfather, thanks to Anne's success in the first half of the year.

The media also knows three buildings, two of which are from the same community as Kobe, and one of them is his grandfather's villa, which is the one where Ace and Avril got married. So the media had no choice but to block the Clippers' training hall, hoping that he would come to the start of the new season.

As expected, Ace's only car in Los Angeles, Mercedes-Benz SUV.

"Everyone, everyone, today is my first day to report to the team. Let me go to train first, and then I will give you time to interview you, okay?" Ace was really helpless, because even if the security personnel dispatched these arduous media reporters, they would not move at all.

"Can we visit the training course?" A reporter clearly understood Ace. He quickly took more benefits when he heard this, because once Ace promised you, he would definitely give you a lot of information, so that you can definitely go back and submit a job. This is why even if the reporter often chased Ace like this even if he didn't give face to face, otherwise he would have written Ace as a heinous guy.

"Is it okay for ten minutes? You know, the coach is not me, I am just a player." Ace thought about it and couldn't escape anyway, so he just treated it as giving them some benefits.

As Ace's words were released, these media reporters also gave face and released their way one by one, allowing Ace to go in for training.

Ace walked towards the locker room, and this group of media reporters became the only group of spectators in the training hall today. You should know that the Clippers are now a group of old guys in nursing homes, but these are also a group of people who are well-produced. Barkley alone can make them look close-ups, let alone Howard, who is very troublesome.

As for the Clippers' draft picks, this year it was a stalemate because they were all traded by Howard, and three original Clippers were also attached. Howard's transfer is also the largest deal in this transfer.

In fact, Ace wanted to trade Durant's kid, but after thinking about it, they just wanted to have fun anyway, so they adhered to the strategy of becoming stronger and stronger. Howard bought it as a mascot. Of course, he will definitely be allowed to play the main player in the playoffs, which is also the result of the telephone communication between Old Nelson and Ace.

"Oh, the boss is here, what's the explanation today?" Barkley was wearing his shoelaces and saw that Ace actually came and said jokingly.

"Hi l?b!" Reggie Miller also quipped.

This ‘l?b’ is also the nickname given to Ace by the media. ‘l’ means the letter before Ace’s name, and ‘b’ means boss, so Ace’s abbreviation has been called out by everyone now.

"Go and go, a group of old men, what else are you kidding?" Ace curled his lips and walked to his closet to prepare his outfit.

"Hi, how are you doing during the honeymoon? Are there any beauties who are dedicated on the road!" Howard came over and asked in a humble manner.

After the referendum, Ace became the new captain of the Clippers. If age is counted, he is the youngest player in the team. No, the Clippers are almost completely cleaned up. Some players who no one wants can trade, and those who cannot trade can be fired, or they can be put into the second division, so Ace became the youngest captain of the team.

"I originally thought that when you were in the second half of the season, you were allowed to play as the main player. I think life would be pushed to the playoffs. If you can't make it to the playoffs, then you will jump into the fire pit by yourself. Don't forget that you signed with me for five years!" Ace raised his eyebrows and said.

This is also a combination of howard is in his first year of fighting, and his new contract has become a new sky-high contract in the league, no less than Kobe's seven-year 136.4 million. He also has a five-year 98 million contract, which is not counted as some other bonus benefits.

Barkley and his group all had a two-year contract of 20 million, which was also the coffin book that Ace was jokingly called to show his filial piety to these guys.

As for Ace, he saves as much as he can. He not only needs to control the team's salary cap, but also needs to pay less taxes. If he is not the boss of the team, he is working for the team for nothing, but his salary is just a joke by the media.

"Don't, I'm selling myself to you. At least I'll win three consecutive championships in five years. Let's create a Clippers dynasty. Think about our age, you have to build me well!" Howard said to Ace when he licked his face.

"Maybe I will retire after playing for a year. Tell me, what else do I have to pursue now? I'm playing basketball first and doing benefits, okay?" Ace wouldn't give Howard a face. This guy is typical of aphrodisiacs.

"Okay, just be the substitute for me, hahahahaha," Ewing said with a funny look.

"Oh, it's a mistake. It would be great if I came to look for Ace two years later. I was impulsive, impulsive!" Howard could only sit back in front of his locker as if he was particularly aggrieved.

A group of people changed their clothes and walked towards the training ground. Although these guys have retired for many years, after Ace asked Barkley to release the news, they all started to do recovery training, especially some injuries. After Ace confirmed that they had the intention to come to the team, they arranged for them to go to Germany, China and the United States to conduct restorative training.

The current players of the Clippers are definitely not enough to play high-intensity continuous away games and back-to-back mode games, because their bench players are not deep enough. If these old players are regarded as bench players, it is absolutely true. However, if Ace wants to have fun, these people can only support one game. This still requires Ace to ensure that he has more than 40 minutes of games in each game, which means that he will basically not be replaced.

Looking at the lineup of the Clippers after being cleaned up, it is simply star-stunning and withering the population.

Center: Gorilla Ewing, Warcraft Howard

Power forward: Karl Malone, Charles Barkley

The small forward has no such thing as the only one who can make Barkley play occasionally, or let Reggie Miller play away.

Scoring guard: Reggie Miller

He is the only one.

And point guards: John Houston Stockton and Eswook.

Although these people are not an All-Star lineup, that's why they are nicknamed nursing homes, because they can't even get a substitute lineup in almost a game. Apart from Ace and Howard, two people who are in their prime and who are still in their prime, what else can others besides recharged?

Old Nelson strongly persuaded Ace to sign up for the team, even if they were to introduce those blue-collar players, it would be a fantasy if they wanted to make the playoffs or even the championship with these players.

A team of seven people, even the roster of players is not enough, and it has to drop a few players from the Clippers' second-tier team to make up the numbers. It is still the kind that cannot play games. However, the willful Ace does not want to do this, and just wants to rely on them to win the championship. This is also the most quarrel between Ace and Old Nelson.

And tomorrow they will also play against the Lakers at home. Of course, the two teams will use one home court, and there will be no other changes except the icons on the floor.

Now the summer transfer date has expired. According to Old Nelson's opinion, we should go through this period first, and in the All-Star period, some players will be added. If it is only three months, they can still support it. Of course, this is what Old Nelson is for Ace and Howard, and the others are all used as defense.

The training starts, it doesn't matter. There are almost three assistant coaches in one person. Except for Ace and Howard, everyone else sits in restorative training, while Ace sits next to Old Nelson to discuss with him.

"Tell me, the transfer period has expired. Now we can only buy those blue-collar players with full free agent options, or only find some players who are still good at playing in the right place. Old Nelson was also quite troubled. He was quite interested in Ace's idea before. Who guided the Clippers to take over the Clippers first cleaned up those injured and useless players, and the players whose contracts expired, and now the Clippers are all left with a bone frame. Only then did he realize that Ace is just making a fool of himself.

"That's all. Do you have any suggestions?" Ace also said humbly. Looking at the three or two old cats on the court, it was like a junior high school basketball team, just getting enough people.

"I knew you were not attentive to guard this. This is a list I prepared. Buy it first and use it. When the player transfer will start again in January, we must make a good idea." Old Nelson really wanted to strangle this little bastard to death. In fact, he blamed himself. He didn't care about the team in the summer league. The players before the Clippers were playing. In the preseason, he didn't worry even more. After hearing the record of losing all, he also thought that it was just the main player who did not return to the team. He found an absolute big problem after taking over the team three days ago. He also came back from vacation and looked at the withering information of registered players and really wanted to kill Ace.

It was this Ace who rushed back in a hurry, otherwise, this guy would guarantee that he would arrive at the team at the start of the game tomorrow.

"Uh, then buy it, I'll contact Annie!" Ace was not asking for advice humbly, but was completely guilty.

Players who had no training courses could rest after they resumed training. Now they didn't even have enough people to organize the team games. When they heard Ace and Old Nelson were discussing buying free agents, they came over to discuss.

"Desagena Diop is a good guy. He has strong athletic ability, a certain tonnage, mature rebounders, and especially strong frontcourt rebounds. The timing of blocking has also improved a lot. However, he has no offensive ability and high-quality pure blue-collar worker. I remember correctly. He is now a complete free agent and has $4 million. It is absolutely cost-effective to use it for a year." After all, Barkley was a commentator in the league before, and his mastery of players is not smaller than that of a few people. In fact, he is also the guy with the most right to speak in the right direction.

"Okay, he's the one." Ace looked at Old Nelson and nodded again, then found a note and wrote his name.

"How is this guy Kwame Brown? He became Yao Ming's bargaining weight last year and was also left to the Grizzlies by the Rockets. He is now a free agent. And Ace has cooperated with him, so it's okay to play as a power forward." Reggie Miller suddenly remembered this absolute number one pick.

"This..." For a time, several people in the team didn't know what to choose, and few people were willing to believe this big guy. Although they were praised by Gang Qiao, now...

"There is no way. If there is a better player, I will definitely not choose him. Contact me first. And it is only $3 million. It is absolutely cost-effective to buy a No. 1 pick." Ace scratched his head, and there was no way.

"Okay, please contact me first to see if he is willing to come over." Old Nelson also replied.

"Hey, if he comes, we are teammates. He was my younger brother before, so don't sarcastically." Ace looked at Barkley and said with a lip slander.

"As long as you can get me a championship ring in the past two years, it's okay to ask me to call you your real father!" Barkley said exaggeratedly.

"How about Ryan Gomez? You can play small forwards here. You are also a swaying man in the forward guard. You are still strong and you basically rely on inside work to complete the offense. Your efficiency is pretty good. You still need to strengthen your mid-range shooting. However, with Reggie Miller and Ace, you can give up his offensive ability. The annual salary last season was only $770,000. You are also a good blue-collar player, especially to add to our small forward position." Old Nelson said.

"Okay, cheap!" Ace wrote Ryan Gomez's name again, this player who was in the Timberwolves last season.

"I think I can see if I can get Turiav over. This guy is just a restricted free agent this year. When I was in the Lakers, he cooperated well. Nowadays, with Yao Ming and Bynum, he can't play as the main player and gradually becomes a blue-collar worker," Ace said after thinking about it.

"It's not too easy. It's okay if it's just a free agent, but I don't think the Lakers will do anything like this, right?" said Old Nelson.

"Switch it, you have to know that Sashavu Jasic is still in our hands now. As long as I am willing to do his contract, I will fire him directly and then reach an agreement with the Lakers. They are absolutely willing." Ace thought of it and said that if this guy had no thoughts about Sharapova, Ace would be planning to put this guy in the second division forever, suspend the guidance contract, and directly destroy his achievements in basketball.

"You don't have to worry about it. Miss Anne has helped us get all the houses done. Although it's just an apartment, otherwise we'll divide your villa and live in a few of them," said Barkley.

"Take it with you" Ace laughed and scolded and began to discuss new players with everyone, looking at the free agents in the league.
