NBA: Bind the ability of Sakuragi Flower Road at the beginning

Lin Long calmly said: "Don't rush to call the police, boss, I'm waiting for the person who will connect with them, we must find out who is behind it!"

Xu Feng knew that Lin Long was very prudent and patient, so he would definitely find out who was behind the scenes.

"Lin Long, thank you for your hard work. If there is anything I need to do, please let me know."

"Good boss, the truth will be revealed soon, within three days!" Lin Long said confidently.

"Well, waiting for your good news!"

……

The Lakers' next regular season game is a home game against the Los Angeles Clippers, a city derby.

This season is Paul's sixth season with the Clippers.

With Griffin, Jordan Jr., and Redick, the Clippers have not touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals. It has to be said that Paul's ability to lead the team has been questioned by many parties.

Paul, who has won numerous honors, needs a qualitative improvement in the team's record.

However, Paul is also unlucky. At present, there are so many Western Conference teams, and it is too difficult to break out of the Wild West.

The Lakers, Warriors, Rockets, and Spurs are not so easy to deal with, so Paul is also in a hurry.

The Lakers, who have won [-] consecutive victories, will naturally not relax when facing their city rivals the Clippers.

And every time the Clippers play the Lakers, they are also very energetic. Although they lose more and win less, Paul fights desperately.

In this encounter, Paul even uttered bold words before the game. He must end the Lakers' winning streak and not let the Clippers become the background board for the Lakers' winning streak!

At the press conference, Xu Feng was also asked by reporters about Paul's "big words" and asked his opinion.

Xu Feng couldn't hold back and almost laughed, but Xu Feng has a big heart after all, and said slowly: "Our winning streak will end at any time, but I dare say, it will never be broken here in Los Angeles, I promise! "

The reporters were very happy when they saw Xu Feng and Paul talking to each other in the air. Isn't this material coming soon?Isn't there traffic?

At [-] o'clock in the evening, at the Staples Center, the Lakers challenged the Clippers away.

Although it is the Clippers' home court, there are still a large number of Lakers fans present. This is the background of the giants, coupled with the super popularity brought by Xu Feng, so the Clippers are incomparable.

The Lakers' starters are still Xu Feng, Wade, McGee, Tucker and Livingston.

The Clippers' starting five are still Paul, Griffin, Jordan, Barnes and Redick.

With the opening jump ball, Jordan won the first wave of possession for the Clippers.

In the league, the only ones who can beat McGee with a jump ball, except Howard, is Jordan.

Paul dribbles past half court.

Judging from Paul's expression, he really wanted to win this game and break the Lakers' winning streak.

Because Paul needs to prove himself too much, and now the West is getting more and more chaotic, and he is getting older, and if he doesn't make any achievements, his historical status will become lower and lower in the future.

Livingston singles Paul, who passes the ball to Redick.

Redick's three-pointers have always been good, but he is always open for three-pointers. If he takes the initiative to attack, he is still far behind. This is the biggest difference between other shooters and Curry.

Wade came to defend Redick and didn't give him an open chance. Redick had no choice but to pass the ball to Griffin.

Tucker single-handedly defended Griffin, and the top of the lower plate was deadly. Griffin couldn't get in at all, so he had to rely on his height to jump up and make a mid-range shot.

brush!
Go in!

I have to say that Griffin's progress is still not small, and now he also realizes that his body is not as good as before, and he can't always play violent dunks.

Therefore, Griffin deliberately increased the proportion of the ball, and the mid-range shots and three-pointers also increased, and the Clippers' tactics became more abundant.

The Lakers attacked, and Wade continued to play the first ball.

When Wade faced Redick, he was naturally relaxed and happy. With a change of direction, Redick was thrown away, and then he went to the basket and scored a layup.

In the first half of the first quarter, both sides played well with a high shooting percentage.

At 5 minutes and 52 seconds, the score between the two sides was 13:11. The Clippers led by 2 points and entered an official timeout.

Paul played very well in these few minutes, sent 3 assists, and a steal, showing the ability of a top point guard.

However, the Lakers are not doing their best at the moment, and Xu Feng is holding back.

Because of watching the previous clips of the Clippers, Xu Feng saw that the Clippers have changed this season, with more tactics and more coping methods.

They often temporarily decide the game method based on the player's state in the first quarter.

For example, if other players feel good, Paul will become a super point guard and pass the ball to them as much as possible.

And once the teammates can't open the first quarter, then Paul will start the attack mode.

Although Paul's offensive ability is weaker than that of Curry, he is considered very strong among other point guards.

Especially in the mid-range after he passed the pick-and-roll, he was almost accurate, and he rarely missed in the impression.

During the timeout, Xu Feng said to his teammates based on the situation in the first half of the quarter: "We will cut off Paul's passing route in a while. The other Clippers players feel good today. Wade should mark Paul."

Paul and Wade are two of the four banana boat brothers and have a great off-court relationship.

But when it comes to the court, it is a merciless opponent.

Wade nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to restrain Paul."

For a player of this level, lockout is impossible, but limited to below average, it is a success.

The time-out is over and the game continues.

Under Xu Feng's command, the entire Lakers team was in operation. Paul suddenly realized that the ball couldn't be passed, and every player in the Clippers was closely watched.

In desperation, he remembered his own strong attack.

But under Wade's active defense, Paul missed three consecutive shots.

This was exactly what Xu Feng wanted.

The Clippers' offense was frustrated, and the Lakers broke out.

First, Xu Feng scored a fast-break dunk, and then Wade rushed to the basket and passed to McGee to score.

Livingston also hit Paul in the back.

The Lakers took advantage of the situation and played a small climax of 12:2, which suddenly widened the point difference.

战至9分42秒，双方比分23：15，湖人领先了8分。

Clippers coach Rivers had no choice but to call a timeout and was about to put on a substitute.

The substitute matchup was evenly matched at the beginning. The Clippers' Ke Liu came up and made two three-pointers in a row.

But the Lakers' substitutes played steadily. Ding Yanyuhang and Randall played well, scoring consecutively, and suppressed the Clippers' firepower in a blink of an eye.

……

At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 54:35. The Lakers led by 19 points and established the victory.

Although there is still enough time, all the tactics of the Clippers are basically suppressed by the Lakers.

The Lakers' winning streak looks set to continue.

In the second half of the game, the situation was similar. Paul still wanted to connect the teams, but the tactics had been seen through.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Clippers 118:104, completing their [-]-game winning streak.
