Chapter 711: 【Victim of the Devil's Season】

On the 16th, the Clippers played against the Nets at home, a 10-game winning streak ended, 94 to 99 lost the game.

Yao Ming and Deron Williams are very good at the midfield pick-and-roll cooperation. Favors can attack in the low position, and the pick-and-roll defense is equally good. With superb physical qualities, the flanking defense is significantly stronger than last season.

Yao Ming is "Eating and sleeping and playing World of Warcraft", while Delong is called "Eating and sleeping and playing Paul." This is really not nonsense.

Deron scored 27 points, 3 rebounds and 12 assists in this game, Paul had only 14 points and 10 assists.

Deron can play good stats and win every time he plays against Paul, which is a major feature of the two after entering the league. Paul only won a few times when Deron's team was weak, and the numbers were average.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Delong suffered several injuries in the 16-17 season and was close to scrapping. When he represented the Cavaliers against the Clippers, he played 26 minutes, 4 of 8 shots, 1 of 3 3-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, 11 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists.

Paul played 27 minutes, 8 of 0 shots, 3 of 5 3-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, 5 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists.

This curse is exactly as if the Chinese men's football team will be able to tie the game, it will definitely not tie it.

Well, this is actually not a curse. The data shows that except for the freak Tony Parker, other short or thin point guards are basically beaten in the face of Deron.

At the peak of Delong, No. 1 was not afraid of anyone, and he was unable to do so after his sports ability was reduced due to injuries.

In the inside star contest, Yao Ming withdrew from the basket to make Chandler difficult to play his special skills. Defensive end Yao Ming also restricted Griffin's strong attack near the penalty area and sent two big caps.

This season, Griffin is still a violent power forward, and shots near the penalty area account for a large proportion. When he meets Howard and Yao Ming who are good at the penalty area, they will show weakness, and the team training is not good to fight Chandler. .

Griffin scored 19 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists in this game, but only 4 of 12 shots, 1 of 3 3-pointers and 10 of 12 free throws did not help the team at a critical moment.

After the game, media analysis said that Griffin was overvalued.

The best rookie, averaging 20+10 per game, dunk king, excellent explosiveness, Griffin is indeed quite outstanding in these aspects.

As the team owner, it would be nice to have players like Griffin, a cash cow that can bring high box office and high income.

As a team coach, Yang Rui also likes him very much, can improve the morale of the team, adjust the mood of players on the field. However, in the playoffs, Griffin's tactical role is general, it is a chicken rib, eat without flesh and taste.

The playoffs will magnify the shortcomings of the players indefinitely, the team's shortcomings, the opposing team will catch it mercilessly, chasing after the fierce, endless. Even if you can't catch it in the first game, there are no secrets in two games, but the playoffs have four wins to advance.

Before Griffin's mid-range shooting, he lacked the ability to finalize. His value lies in the regular season, box office, attention, and credit, but not the most important. It is too early to compare him with Duncan, Nowitzki, Garnett and others at their peak, or it is not comparable.

Of course, even if he only plays with his body, Griffin is also the top ten power forward in the NBA, and few people can prevent him. It's just that the league played him too badly last year, making him the best player, aroused many people's resentment, so the media took advantage of the Clippers' chance to lose him.

On the 17th, the Clippers played back to back against the Jazz, winning 109 to 88 and refusing a losing streak.

After the Jazz trade, the lineup has changed a lot except Bogut, the point guard has been replaced by Devin Harris, the small forward is Gordon Hayward, and veterans such as Laga Bell and Luke Wharton.

Wharton has been a marginalist since leaving the Lakers, and can find a job every season. The teams roam and rely on the ball dealer.

The Clippers won easily, but this time Paul left the game with an injury in the third quarter. Without a confrontation, he injured his right calf and will be absent for 2-4 weeks.

This kind of injury is very bad for Paul, but it is not an exception. Players are injured in each team, and there are many big-name stars.

The NBA started after the lockout. After the season has shrunk, it brought about the overloading of players. Wade, Ginobili, Nowitzki and others have become victims of this devil season.

Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said in an interview with the US media that the NBA's current schedule is extremely unreasonable, which not only caused most of the current players to be injured, but also caused some players to have injuries that should not appear on basketball players. Disease, tearing of the pectoral muscles, which is a product of high muscle fatigue.

The unlucky torn chest muscle is the Bucks center Al Horford, who has been reimbursed for the season.

"Players have increased their playing time and have more games to face each week. But the league has limited time to prepare for them. When the league has just started, it is not good for the players to arrange such a intensive schedule. ."

Van Gundy's criticism is not untargeted. In the less than a month since the start of the fight, 126 people have been plagued by serious injuries.

According to the latest statistics, among the 30 teams in the entire league, except for the Heat and the Suns, there are no injuries. The remaining 28 teams are all injured. A lot of people always have to do before each game is to apply ice in the locker room.

On the 18th, the Clippers back-to-back for three consecutive times, 101 to 79 at home victory over the Mavericks.

The two sides are out of the ball, Nowitzki has a greater impact on the Mavericks, the offense becomes weak, the top scorer is only center Mark Gasol, the outside rely on veterans Jason Terry and Dronti West .

De Shawn Stevens and Barea were poached, the Mavericks signed Drondi West as a substitute, because he didn't have a "friend", he was a good role player, averaging Can get 10.3 points.

Without Paul, the Clippers' outside line is relying on Curry, and Neil's offense is not weak~lightnovelpub.net~The inside line Griffin is bullying the thin and tall Brandon White.

Kidd's state is not as good as a year, not good at chasing and preventing pick-and-roll. Little Gasol moves more slowly, and it is not timely to change the defense. Because of these two weaknesses, the Mavericks are not good at preventing the Clippers' three-pointers.

If you let Gasol Jr. take a rest, the tall and thin Brandon White guest center, and Marion's inside partner, the mobility is available, and Griffin can't resist.

Having won a championship, the nerves of the Mavericks' tightness have been loosened, and the veterans have collectively fallen, and they can no longer play the game of offense and defense last season. After the start, the Mavericks record 8 wins and 7 losses, is one of the most disappointing team.

After a day off, the Clippers beat the Timberwolves 98 to 91 at home on the 20th and scored three straight victories.

In the case of Beasley's injury and absence, the Timberwolves, led by Al Jefferson and Pekovic, still led the Clippers three and a half quarters and almost won.

The Timberwolves are two super-strong men. Al Jefferson is averaging 20.7 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game this season. His shooting percentage is 49.7%. He is 208 cm tall and weighs 120 kg. He catches the ball from the low position and arches inside. Chandler is not easy to defend. If Chandler is far away, he can still vote.

Jefferson came off the bench, and the same type of Pekovic was on the bench. He was 211cm tall and weighed 134 kilograms. He cut his back to the basket and few people in the league could resist it.

The two's weakness is defense, so they can't play together. The defensive end controls the rebound and launches a counterattack, suppressing the Clippers by chaos.

In the second half of the last quarter, Curry showed great power, hit four three-pointers, and assisted Korver to make a three-pointer, overtaking the score.

Currently Curry is averaging 18.7 points, 4 rebounds and 5.1 assists. His shooting percentage is stable and he will be selected as an All-Star. 108
