Time has come to October 7, 2007, and the NBA preseason officially began.

The two brothers completed the endorsement contract and were training with peace of mind for the next two months.

According to their different technical characteristics, the old Dunleavy and the coaching team specially arranged different long-term targeted training for the two.

Ji Guochou has been training small hooks in the penalty area in the past two months. The Clippers don’t need him to shoot with hooks outside the penalty area in his first season, just like Yao Ming, who can shoot with hooks outside the penalty area. He only needs to have hooks and finishes in the penalty area.

Don’t look at the simple hooking, if you practice it well, this move will be enough for a lifetime. Of course, this move will also last for a lifetime.

The Clippers' coaching staff attaches great importance to the two brothers' long arms. With such an excellent arm span, it is a waste of resources to not hook.

Ji Guomomiya rarely takes action in the penalty area. His shooting range is long and there is no blind spot within 25 feet. Such excellent projection talent makes the Clippers decide to train him into a league superstar like Rashid Wallace, or even Nowitzki.

However, only the ability to shoot in the face frame is very easy to be restricted by the opponent.

Just like James Percy, whom they just signed this season, this defensive player relied on his accurate judgment and experience. He used his height of 203cm, and it was difficult to defend against Ji Guomeng in the training game, and his shooting percentage also dropped to a terrible level.

Therefore, the Clippers' coaching staff believes that if Ji Guomeng doesn't want to be restricted by other teams in the league so easily, he must learn back-to-body skills. The simplest and most suitable for him is back-to-body jump shot.

If Ji Guomeng can have the ability to catch the ball from the middle distance of about 15 feet, then in a one-on-one situation, no one will be able to defend against him.

Think about it, his 210cm height plus 228cm wingspan, if he flips over and jumps at mid-range, it is basically an offensive move that cannot be blocked. Just like Garnett, unless there is a supporting defense, it will be impossible to be blocked one-on-one. As for whether he can score a goal? It can only be determined by his feel, and Ji Guomo's feel is exactly his best place.

As the saying goes, one trick will make you eat all over the world. If the two of them can master these two technologies in these two months, the new season will surely surprise everyone.

On October 10, the Clippers' first game will be played at home, against the Seattle Supersonics, which sent Ray Allen away after a big deal this year.

The highlight of this game is undoubtedly the showdown between Durant and the twin brothers.

The two Clippers twins have performed well in the summer league, and their brilliance has even covered up the No. 1 pick and No. 2 pick this year.

But in the regular season, even in the preseason, do they still perform as magically as the summer league? The media have different opinions on the two, which can be said to be mixed and criticized.

The Los Angeles Times has always been the pioneer of slandering the two brothers. Just the day before the game, their sports columnist Da Bendan wrote: "A low-level competition like the Summer League cannot explain any problem. Even if the two enter the best lineup, their value will be a big question. Asians have always been not good at fierce confrontation at high speed and high intensity, so when the level of the game is increased by one intensity or even two intensity, their weaknesses will be exposed."

Coincidentally, Da Sabi, a basketball columnist of the New York Times, also held the same opinion. He wrote: "This year, the NBA welcomed four Chinese players. Except for the Lakers' second round pick, the other three are big men with seven feet tall. What does this mean? This shows that Chinese players can only play by their height advantage. Unfortunately, none of them do have the absolute advantage of Yao Ming's height and weight. This also means that they will face the impact of American players with better physical fitness and stronger ability! And their weak bodies are obviously unable to adapt to such high-intensity confrontations in the NBA. What is really suitable for them is European basketball, and it is difficult for them to make a difference in the NBA."

When the two saw these two reports, they noticed that one signed below was Da Bendan, and the other was Da Sabi. Seeing these two names... the two knelt down and did not dare to refute it at all!

"They must be in the same family." Ji Guomori said to his brother in his heart.

"The idiot and Sabi are of course the same family." Ji Guoqiu couldn't help laughing. The names of the two were even better than theirs, so they couldn't accept them.

Domestic media and American media have different opinions. Their opinions are basically the same. They are very optimistic about the future of the two because they beat Space Yi, and it must be OK if they don’t work at this time.

Chinese fans have now transferred their hope from Space Yi to the two brothers. If even they return in the NBA, then it may be like Sabi and the idiot said, the Chinese are really not suitable for the NBA.

Before the game started, Dunleavy announced the starting roster in the home team locker room at the Staples Arena.

Point guard Kassel, shooting guard Mobri, small forward Mageti, power forward Ji national humiliation, center... Old Dunleavy saw Ji Guoqiu and Kaman and said slowly: "Center, Chris Kaman."

Ji Guochou felt sad. He knew that he had not impressed the head coach for two months. This was actually very normal. Kaman had been in his fourth season and had always been a starter before. It was impossible to replace the opponent just because he performed well in the summer league.

Old Dunleavy announced the starting list and continued: "Although today is a preseason game, whether you play well or not has no impact on our regular season, and your data will not be recorded. But fans and I will take every performance in our hearts. Want to get a high salary? Want to start? Then take your best efforts. You must know that the person who is staring at your position is by your side. If you don't want to be replaced, then give me a good performance."

Such pre-match mobilization made the players not afraid to show up. This year the captain was reimbursed, and no one's prestige in the locker room could affect old Dunleavy.

Don't think that the old coach is joking. If they don't play well on the court, they will really be pushed to the bench.

Ji Guoqiu cannot start, Ji Guomei feels uncomfortable. If his brother didn't pass the ball to him, he would have lost many chances of scoring. Others are not spiritually connected to him.

"It doesn't matter. Although I don't have a starter, the coach will definitely give me enough playing time." Ji Guochou said in his heart.

"Okay, when you come on the court, I will pass more balls to you. You have to perform well enough to get the starting position as soon as possible." Ji Guomeng was actually thinking that if he hadn't deliberately thrown a few pots to Kaman and framed this guy who dared to compete for the starting position with his brother.

"No, the Kamans are not bad. They don't rely on their qualifications to make things difficult for us, so we should not make things difficult for others." Ji Guoqiu was still so tall and knew what his brother was thinking, so he stopped him immediately!
Chapter completed!
