Chapter 647: 【New Clippers, Ultimate Plan】

Clippers manager Nell Orch is actually recruiting early in the morning, looking for role players that are easy to dig up, not stars, everything is subject to Yang Rui's arrangement.
Of the Clippers’ free agents, only power forward Steve Novak has renewed his contract, Bobby Brown, Marty Collins, Rasu Butler, Steve Blake, Brian S. Jinner, Marcus Camby, Greg Smith and others were all abandoned.
Seeing that the Clippers are almost gone, there are more and more people watching the lively. Among them, the most hoped that Yang Rui will be deflated is the Bass family and Kobe. If the Clippers rise, they will form a competitive relationship with the Lakers and directly affect the Lakers' ball market.
It would be better if no big-name stars joined. If Yang Rui could not lead the team into the playoffs, his influence would not be that great after the Clippers sank for a few years.
In early July, the Clippers finalized two assistant coaches. The first assistant was Steve Kerr who was the manager of the Suns last season. He was just dismissed; the other was the Wizards who won the championship with Yang Rui. Substitute point guard Tyrone Lu, retired in 2009.
There are also news on this matter. Many people think that Yang Rui's selection of assistants is becoming more and more random. The two have neither experience nor fame.
In the second half of July, the Clippers began signing new aid.
The first signing to the Cavaliers restricted free agent Rudy Gay, the full middle-aged 5 years 34 million, the price is the same as the Magic signed backup center Gortat.
The Cavaliers signed Mike Miller with the middle class, it is impossible to renew Gay, and the management did not want to renew Gay.
This signing made many people unpredictable. Guy was only a blue collar in the Cavaliers. The data was very poor. Last season, he was squeezed onto the bench by Anthony Parker. He averaged only 8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. It doesn’t look like it is worthy. The middle class.
In Yang Rui's mind, Guy was the must-have, he even felt a little dreamy, and it was too easy to sign.
Even if Guy has no ball rights in the Cavaliers for four years, it is worth cultivating only by physical fitness. He is 203cm tall and weighs 104kg. He can be a power forward, and his speed is as fast as a defender. It is almost impossible to block the jumper. .
In Yang Rui’s previous life, Guy and the Grizzlies renewed their contract as much as Durant. If he signed a top salary, Guy was a bad contract. He relied too much on CIC, with low lethality and few free throws, and his average organization ability could not drive his teammates. Only the middle class won Guy, and the contract was absolutely great.
The second pick was still a swingman. The Clippers gave Kyle Korver a three-year 15 million mini middle class. Korver is a super three-pointer, but the defense is slightly inferior and can open up space well.
In the third draw, the Clippers digged Celtics defender Tony Allen in 10 years.
Tony Allen agreed without thinking, he lacked the ability to shoot, just a blue collar, it is difficult to get a contract, this is already the biggest offer he can receive.
Yang Rui likes to attack, not to give up defense completely. He knows the value of Tony Allen and will be selected as the best defensive lineup in the future. His brown sugar defense made all outside scorers miserable, repeatedly scoring Kobe less than 20 points and shooting less than 40%.
The most courageous thing is that Tony Allen played for the Grizzlies in the previous playoffs, preventing Durant from dying.
Tony Allen, who is 193cm tall, can actually prevent Durant from falling in efficiency. Those who have not watched the game may not believe it, but it does happen. His constant entanglement makes Durant not easy to catch the ball. Turning around, you can only force a jumper and lose the rhythm of the shot.
In the fourth draw, the Clippers dug the Spurs edgeman center Ian Mahinmi with a two-year salary. Because of the existence of Duncan and Scola, he had little chance of performance last season.
Yang Rui is optimistic about Ma Xinmi's defense. His defensive ability is seriously underestimated. His body is explosive, maneuverable, and can resist pick-and-roll. Because he has no data, he can't sign a big contract.
The Spurs are still negotiating with Scola's agent and have no time to manage Masinmi's replacement.
On the fifth pick, Yang Rui sent scouts to find a non-draft player, combo guard Gary Neal, who signed two year-end salary and the second year's team option.
As the saying goes, heroes don’t ask where they come from. Those players who are disappointed in the NBA draft, or who have never participated in the NBA draft, are not necessarily leftovers, and many of them have become very good stars.
In Yang Rui’s previous life, Neal, who was 193 cm tall and 95 kg in weight, left a deep impression on him. Although he was poorly organized, he was a terrific three-pointer and he often blew the wind. After joining the Spurs, he immediately became an excellent immediate combat force.
On the sixth draw, Yang Rui found Danny Green, a marginal man who was abandoned by the Cavaliers, gave him an unguaranteed base salary, and played with him in the preseason. If he didn't play well, he could be cut at any time.
Yang Rui believes that Green can play well, but he pays attention to step by step, not to give a long appointment at a stretch, then Green's mentality will change, maybe the training is not so hard, I don't know if he can achieve the success of the Spurs.
Now that he joined the Clippers and plans to develop in Los Angeles in the future, Yang Rui was determined to kill some opponents in the bud. If the Warriors lose Curry, the Spurs will lose Neil and Green, and their strength will decline.
However, in the view of others, the Clippers just signed a few role players, substitute blue collars, there is no future.
Dunleavy signed a five-year 44 million contract in 2005, which was executed in 2006 and expired in 11 years. With the last year left, Yang Rui did not intend to stay with him, allowing management and other teams to seek a deal.
Deng Liwei's advantage is that he can shoot a three-pointer, 206CM, 100 kg body is a weak point, the speed of anti-position 3 is slow, and the anti-position 4 cannot bear. In Yang Rui's previous life, even people like Elder Nelson who didn't like defense couldn't look down on Dunleavy, thinking he was too poorly defended.
Manager Orch looked for the Pacers first, and proposed to replace Dunleavy with Paul George Gayos McRoberts~EbookFREE.me~ The Pacers management was not so stupid and refused.
Paul George is a player who needs the ball to play. It is difficult to play during the Clippers rookie contract. Yang Rui’s idea is that there are more potential newcomers. Even if George can’t score many points, he can help the team on physical defense. .
After the failure, Yang Rui asked Orch to contact the Hornets to prepare for the ultimate summer plan.
The free market star is reluctant to join the Clippers. Yang Rui doesn't care. He is looking for people who can help his teammates.
Curry, Griffin, and Guy all need time to exercise, and young players are rough and have poor coordination. With their play alone, the Clippers cannot win the championship next season, and it is difficult for Yang Rui to maintain his record of never missing the division finals.
Therefore, he needs a core that can drive the team, this person is the Hornets point guard Chris Paul.
It’s no secret that Paul wanted to leave the Hornets. Last season, the Hornets didn’t make the playoffs. Paul only played 45 games due to injury, scoring 18.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 10.7 assists.
In Yang Rui’s previous life, Paul joined the Clippers in 2011. Although he failed to lead the team through the second round of the playoffs, his strength is beyond doubt and he can lead the team to play a beautiful game.
Digging up Paul, the Clippers will have the backbone of the attack, and a group of newcomers can complete the run-in faster, which is critical.
As for the chips, Orch told the Hornets manager that in addition to Curry and Griffin, the Clippers have other Hornets to choose from, as well as the first two years of unprotected draft picks, the second round of draft picks, what the Hornets want, What they give is as long as the salary is equal.
This is the most sincere offer received by the Hornets management, other teams digging Paul's offer is simply robbery. The Hornets boss George Sean immediately summoned everyone to a meeting, and he was tempted.
