The Avengers set off their sword! The Clippers 250 million formation fills all shortcomings, Zubac: There is no excuse this time

1:19am, 17 August 2025Basketball

The electronic clock in the locker room skipped midnight, and Zubac was still watching the game video repeatedly - the picture was frozen in the last 17 seconds of the first round G4, and Jokic hit the throw that changed the direction of the series in front of him. "It was us who let the victory go with our own hands. " The voice of the Croatian center echoed in the training hall, and his fingertips hit the Nuggets' logo on the tactical board. When the Clippers stunning the league with 50 wins but failed in the first round, the locker room was filled with an unprecedented sense of suffocation: this was the first time in four years, and injuries were no longer the fig leaf of failure. The offseason operation phone calls are as dense as a war drum. With Paul's field control magic, Bill's scoring explosive power, Lopez's no-fly zone and Collins' space attributes injected into the lineup, the ambitions of the Clippers' management are revealed - this team, the fourth-ranked offensive efficiency league last season, is upgrading the arsenal to the strategic level. Zubac calculated by counting on his fingers on the training ground: "Paul's pick-and-roll can increase my downward efficiency by 30%. Bill's unball running can tear open the double team, Daluo's frame protection freed me to focus on positioning, and Collins' external bullet cleared the breakthrough channel. "

The blueprint of revenge is being drawn on the tactical board. Assistant coach Brian Shaw showed the killer of the new season: When Paul and Zubac initiated a high pick-and-roll, Bill, the weak side, cut out with Collins' cover, forming a three-threatening offensive axis. This system has begun to show its edge in the training match: in a certain confrontation, Paul used the ground pass to help Zubac dunk four times in a row, and Coach Lu on the sidelines couldn't help but applaud: "This is called internal and external linkage! "

The transformation of the defensive end is shocking. What Lopez brought not only 2.3 blocked data, but also a qualitative change in the defensive system. The trainer revealed: "He taught Zubac how to predict the pass route. Now Ivica's number of broken passes has soared by 40%. "When Jokic admitted in an interview, "The Clippers' inside rotation is a headache", the league has already smelled the danger.

The whiteboard in the locker room was full of bloody vows: "No injuries! No excuses! "Zubac pointed to the calendar that was eliminated last season: "Nuggets were waiting for us in the second round, and this time it was their turn to taste the reversal. "Paul's speech at the first team meeting even ignited the whole team: "I gave up the 60 million contract in the last year, not to play in the first round. "

When Zubaac completed the last set of strength training, the El Segundo training base at 4 a.m. was still brightly lit. Bill was training for a three-pointer in the bottom corner, Paul studied the Nuggets pick-and-roll video, and Lopez, the Big Big coached the rookie's defensive position. This Galaxy battleship, which cost $250 million, is pouring the waterway to the O'Brien Cup with sweat. Just as Zubac yelled at the camera after smashing the training rebound: "Get ready to witness the real Clippers!"
