Chapter 1010 Changes Are Useless

After the game, there were still a little less reports about the game. If it wasn't for Xie Kai's relationship, it is estimated that not many people paid attention to this game.Obviously, this round of the series should be regarded as the least suspenseful series in the first round.

Fortunately, the Clippers are not incapable of losing. Even if they were swept 0:4, Lao Li's coaching position is still very stable. They can make the playoffs this season, and they have already exceeded the task.Even, because their civilian team made the playoffs, they will have extra points in the upcoming offseason to compete for a few big fish in the free market.

Everyone knows that the Clippers' goal is in the offseason, and Xie Kai, the opposite core, is their main goal.In order to get Xie Kai, they are even willing to give away all the chips in their hands.

With the cornerstone of the team, you don't have to worry about not having other stars to shoot. This is an easy thing in today's NBA.

Just like the Lakers, if there is no James, the thick eyebrow will take the initiative to apply for a trade and want to go to the Lakers?Impossible, Nongmei went to the Lakers to help the poor alone?Just for Metropolis Los Angeles?Then he might as well stay in New Orleans and be the group leader of his air strike group, and it would be even more tiring to be the group leader of the Lakers.

The Clippers and the Lakers are both Los Angeles teams. The advantage of the Lakers is the historical giants, the glorious history of the team in the past, and the fans all over the world. The Clippers also have the advantage now, that is, the team has a better record and a more stable management team. , the coaching staff is even better.

Don't underestimate these advantages, many stars will also consider these when choosing.The Clippers are also in Los Angeles, so the advantage of the big cities is not so great for the Lakers, and considering Wharton's blind operation, although Lao Li is not a historical coach like Popo, he can still lead the team Won the championship, and led the civilian lineup to the playoffs in the West this season.

So the Clippers and the Lakers were originally unequal in terms of signings, but now they seem to have their own advantages.The biggest advantage of the Lakers now is that they have James. At least they have a super giant.

As for Wharton, it's actually not difficult to solve. Just fire him. The Lakers are rich and powerful, but they don't care about the money.To know Deng Yingqiao's salary, the Lakers are still paying it!

On April 4, G16, the first round of the playoffs between the Thunder and the Clippers, will continue at the Thunder's home stadium, the Ford Center Arena.

The Clippers made a change. They removed Shamet from the starting lineup and replaced him with Temple.

Compared with Shamet, who doesn't look big at the No. 1 position, let Temple improve the size of the team's lineup.In this way, SGA can defend against Xie Kai, and Temple can defend against Pickled Pepper. The difference in size will not be so big, and there will be no need to deliberately attack.

But there is also a drawback to doing so, that is, Shamet is the best shooter in the starting lineup. If he goes to the second team, the shooting power of the starting lineup will be affected to a certain extent.In addition, the backcourt defense of the substitute lineup is really unreadable. Reed + Shamet, God, who can they defend?

But what can Lao Li do?Of course he also wants an offensive and defensive star, but is there a problem?With just these few cards in his hand, no matter how he arranges them, it will be difficult to completely match the opponent's lineup, but if nothing changes, and he himself is criticized for not knowing how to adapt, then there is really no hope at all. up.The change of formation can at least see some new things, and it can also provide new ideas for the management, that is, who should stay and who should leave during the offseason.

After the game started, the Clippers did not have as many help defenses as they did in the previous game. They tried to pass a single defense and did not give the opponent easy shots.On the offensive end, they are still team basketball, adding off-ball movement and blocking, and doing some articles on the slow movement of duck eggs.

Although Beverly's actions are rough and mouthy, it has to be said that his perimeter defensive ability is the best on this Clippers team.Under his defense, Westbrook's efficiency was indeed much lower than in the regular season, and he made more mistakes.

But in this game, SGA was allowed to defend against Xie Kai, and the effect was still very poor. The advantage of SGA over Shamet is that at least he has height and can interfere with the opponent's shooting.But trying to limit each other one-on-one is just a dream.

Xie Kai played SGA, he didn't need a pick-and-roll at all, and the opponent couldn't stop him from facing the frame.The difference in height between the two is almost the same, but Xie Kai weighs 9kg heavier than the other.

Xie Kai's strength completely overwhelmed the opponent, be it face-up or back-up, SGA had a hard time defending against it.

SGA's single defense can't limit it, and the Clippers are afraid of Xie Kai's passing ability and dare not attack. It is really difficult to play.

The Thunder easily took the lead by virtue of their defense and the fact that Xie Kai was out of position.

The embarrassment of the Clippers is that their offensive explosive power is concentrated on the second general Humha. If these two cannot explode, this team's offense does not need to have too much hope.

But the Thunder's pincer rotation defense has made it difficult for the second general Henha to play.

The offenses of the two actually have their own flaws. Reed's off-ball ability is actually mediocre, while Harrell has no range and can't go down the pick-and-roll. He is very uncomfortable when the opponent has a big center supporting the basket.

As for the defensive end, these two are colanders in their respective positions and cannot be guarded at all.

If the Clippers don't need the second general, the offense will be even less hopeful; if they are used, the defense will collapse.If Harrell's offense + Zubac's defense, Reed's offense + Beverly's defense, 4 people are combined into 2 people, maybe the team can arrange better manpower.

Lao Li lamented how valuable a player with excellent offense and defense is. He looked at Xie Kai and salivated. A man with top defense + top offense, no injuries, and a top overall view and leadership temperament. He is really a team builder. Super cornerstone!

There was no suspense from the beginning to the end of this game. The Thunder beat the Clippers at home and made another victory. The total score of the series became 2:0.

After the game, the Clippers coach Lao Li said with emotion: "Our players have really worked hard. Kane Xie is too good. I can't describe it with more praises, but it is true. He made OKC's offense And defense has become easier, his presence makes it very difficult for us to match the other party."

The Thunder team won two games in a row, but after the game, the attention was not so high, because everyone thought it should be. Your loss is the big news. You don’t even bother to watch the replay after winning the game. There is no suspense in the game, except for the fans. Passers-by think it's better to watch chickens peck each other!

The next two games will be moved to the Staples Arena in Los Angeles. For the Clippers, whether they can win a game at home is almost the biggest task of this year's playoffs.
