Back in Los Angeles, Tang Shuai quickly received a reply from Duffy.

Procopio has agreed to their invitation and will help him train systematically as his personal trainer during the offseason, and promised to give him a set of training methods for him to use in the regular season next season.

After hearing this news, Tang Shuai was extremely excited. Although he didn't know why this successful trainer was so good at treating him, this was undoubtedly an extremely favorable thing.

Duffy also contacted Zhou Qi, but as far as he learned, Zhou Qi had terminated the contract with his original agent when he came out of China. Now he is helping with his father Zhou Jianwei. From this action, it can be clearly seen that Zhou Qi's draft is a foregone conclusion.

As for the agent, Zhou Jianwei is negotiating with Bafang Company, a well-known American agency. If nothing unexpected happens, he will sign a contract with "Antetokounmpo" Antetokounmpo's agent Erix Saraticis, a Greek agent who is very good at operating international players.

Regarding what Tang Shuai asked to contact Duffy and Zhou Qi to be the agent, Zhou Jianwei said that he could consider it, but the specific details depend on the negotiations on the other side.

Tang Shuai got the information he wanted. Although Tang Shuai felt a little hot-faced and cold-hearted, Duffy was a new agent after all. And for the sake of his son's future consideration, it was a reasonable reaction.

He reminded Duffy that if Zhou Jianwei really refused in the end, he didn't have to care too much.

Two important things were settled, and he had nothing to worry about. And on this afternoon, Kassel organized the team members to continue training.

The game against the Grizzlies ended, and their next game was the sniper battle with the Warriors on April 3.

On the same day when the Clippers won the Grizzlies, the Warriors struggled to defeat the Celtics, expanding their winning streak to 8 games, while also improving the team's record to 65 wins and 7 losses, getting closer and closer to breaking the record.

The Clippers have a good record recently. Except for the game losing to the Bulls, they have achieved final victory in other games, especially when they just won the Thunder, which can be said to be full of momentum. Although the Warriors have been winning streaks, the closer they are to the end of the season, the more their opponents fight, and their physical energy consumption has increased by a factor of a magnitude. The recent game is no longer like before, like before, and they have finished get off work at the last moment. It is precisely because of the current situation of the two teams that many fans expect the Clippers to successfully snipe the Warriors.

Moreover, the playoffs are approaching, and such a match is very meaningful. Those who win will naturally have much more confidence in the playoffs.

On April 2, US time, most websites opened the market. Almost all of them were the Warriors handicaps, and the handicaps reached 10 points. This shows that from the professional perspective of the website, the Warriors' strength is still far above the Clippers, which lacks Griffin.

Because of the conflict that had erupted before, Green of the Warriors couldn't help but start to whine again. He claimed in public that the team's only goal in the remaining games was to break the Bulls' best record in history.

Even in t.n.t's daily program, Barkley and O'Neal also saw the performance of the Clippers in this showdown. Barkley was even more blunt: Although the Clippers defeated the Thunder, it does not mean that their strength is above the Thunder. The Thunder is a team with unstable performance. If the two teams set off to play 7 games in the playoffs, the Clippers will lose, and the Warriors' strength is obviously one level stronger than the Thunder. After a season of running-in, this team has a more tacit understanding and a more offensive and defensive team than the Warriors who won 24 consecutive victories at the start of the game. Moreover, the team is united in breaking the Bulls' winning streak record, so although it cannot be said that the Clippers have no chance of winning, the chance is not great.

Barkley's comment is reasonable and convincing, and further heats up the focus battle between the Clippers and the Warriors.

The media also started a lot of reports on the game, but most of the reports were consistent with experts' opinions on the prediction of the game. They all believed that the Warriors would win another goal and continue to move forward in the direction of breaking the record.

The daily training on this day has not yet ended. Many reporters have arrived at the Staples Center, obviously because of public opinion in recent days. They want to know what the Clippers are in now.

Kassel was unexpectedly calm and directly treated these reporters as air, and practiced how they should be.

When the training was over, the reporters quickly rushed to rush around.

"Coach Sam, do you have confidence in winning the Warriors at home tomorrow?"

"Coach Sam, Charles commented that the team won the Thunder in the previous game just luck. What do you think of this statement?"

"Coach Sam, there was a big conflict in the previous game between the two teams. Will tomorrow's game be a full of gunpowder?"

...

Kassel was instantly surrounded by a group of reporters.

Tang Shuai shook his head helplessly. The media and reporters always like to take some gimmicks out of context before the game, in order to increase the highlights of the game.

However, this game was indeed a real tough battle for him and the Clippers, and it can even be said to be the only tough battle before the playoffs.

On April 3, US time, under the overwhelming publicity of the media and the unlimited expectations of fans, the Warriors players finally arrived in Los Angeles and began pre-match training.

But on this day, something incredible happened.

The Warriors arrived in Los Angeles in the morning. After a brief rookie at noon, the team's assistant coach Walton took the players to the stadium and began training to familiarize themselves with the venue.

And it is this training that has attracted the attention of countless people. These people are not only media and journalists, but local fans.

Nearly 3,000 fans flocked to Staples Center, and the front row was full of positions. These fans arrived for no other purpose, just to watch Curry's training!

Even after the training, Curry took more than an hour to sign and take pictures.

This is undoubtedly a phenomenal event and also reflects Curry's popularity in today's league.

However, for the members of the Clippers, after knowing this, everyone's face turned gloomy and did not speak.

Curry's outstanding performance and attracted support from fans is understandable, but this is in Los Angeles and Staples Center, which is like a slap on the faces of all the Clippers players, and a burst of pain.

"We want to win this game for the honor of the team." This is the last sentence Kassel said to the players before the game began.

The players nodded firmly. If the media and commentators looked down upon, they could completely pretend that they had not seen it. However, when Curry "stolen" the Staples Center, the game had completely transformed into a battle to defend honor.

The Warriors and the Clippers maintained their previous lineup, with Bogut and Jordan Jr. who jumped the ball.

The Australian has average athletic ability, but has a lot of experience. He pushed Jordan Jr. back to the Warriors' half.

The Warriors got their first offensive chance at night.

Scattered cheers sounded in some corners of the scene.

This time, the seriousness on the faces of the Clippers players on the field became even stronger.

NBA is different from CBA, or the speed of fans is different. Even at home, there will be sporadic fans around the road, but this decibel is obviously not sent by a few fans.

"Steal your position!" Kassel walked to the sidelines as soon as the game started and shouted loudly at the players.

The Clippers' players were all pressing against their defenders tightly. Even if Cassel didn't shout, they spared no effort. Even Tang Shuai, who was half a head different from Thompson, was still pestering the opponent tightly, trying hard not to get the chance to catch the ball.

Even when Thompson used the pick-and-roll to get rid of it, Bogut overturned Tang Shuai to the ground, but he didn't hear the referee's whistle. He turned over without saying a word and continued to chase after him.

One of the big reasons why the Warriors are invincible is their mutual trust and tacit understanding of passing and cutting balls. However, the Clippers' defense is not bad. Now, they spare no effort like Tang Shuai. It can even be said that under the mad dog-style defense, the Warriors' cooperation attempts failed several times.

The ball could not even be returned to Curry's hand at the last moment. Thompson saw that there was not enough time and threw a long three-pointer. As a result, Brewer, who was resting the defense, broke out from behind Tang Shuai, and directly slapped his shot out of the field with a block.

The moment he left the boundary, the 24-second whistle sounded along the sidelines.

The Warriors were actually defended for a 24-second round in their first offense!

After the blocking, Brewer seemed extremely excited. His whole body was filled with blue veins and his head was raising his head and roaring. His face was so ferocious that it even made people feel a little scared!

The cheers at the scene were shocking. Although many fans were Curry's fans, it was obvious that more fans still supported the home team. The momentum displayed by the Clippers at the opening deeply infected them.
