overlooking the pitch

Chapter 85
After the Phoenix Suns, every Clippers opponent after them was a playoff-caliber team.

Portland's young Blazers team, which is gaining momentum, can be called the top three starting five tigers in the NBA, and they grabbed the Clippers with a violent hammer just after playing.

LaMarcus Aldridge taught Blake Griffin enough offensively to understand just how terrifying a power forward's ability to have a high jumper can be, and the celebrations at the Rose Garden The Clippers could only leave Portland in despair.

Not only was Blake Griffin dismissed, but An Sheng could not avoid the opportunity of being dismissed. In the fourth game, he flew half of the United States to Miami to challenge the Big Three Heat. For the first time in the regular season For regular season MVP LeBron James, he finally understood what a tank is.

If it comes to back hitting, maybe LeBron James may not be as good as Carmelo Anthony, but he has the physical talent to completely crush Anson, and his strength is like a tank.And while having such great strength, he can run faster than An Sheng and jump higher than An Sheng, which is simply a high-end version of An Sheng.

It is also the first time An Sheng knows what it is like to play in front of a player whose physical talent completely crushes him. He cannot get rid of the defense and is always in front of you. I got An Sheng a pegboard hat like he usually gives to others.

On the defensive end, if among all the small forwards, who Anson wants to learn from most, it is neither Carmelo Anthony who taught Anson a lesson with his buttocks, nor the doubtful life who used various footsteps and experience to shake him. Paul Pierce.It's the two-time regular season MVP LeBron James who is standing opposite him now.

He not only has a good offense, but also uses his breakthrough ability and vision to drive the offense of his teammates very well. When it comes to vision, An Sheng will never be afraid of anyone, even the best player in the league. The point guard is not bad, but what he lacks is the ability and impact of LeBron James to attract double teams.

Seeing that LeBron James not only launched a crazy attack on the inside under his own defense, but also sent out 12 assists, and 12 of these 7 assists turned into three-pointers, directly using three-pointers The Clippers shot dead, and the halftime went straight to garbage time.

32 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, a perfect 30+ triple-double, this is the data exclusive to this man, and the best player cannot fall into the hands of other people, watching the happy accepting the interview and laughing very happy Big Three, next time, next time I will never lose to you guys, even if you are the strongest teams in the league.

With a four-game losing streak, the Clippers left the beautiful east coast of Miami with extreme unhappiness. The beautiful scenery did not make the Clippers, a team, feel better.At this time, in the forum, many people are already gearing up to question the Clippers' twin stars, especially the fans of the team who have been sinking for several years like the Clippers and are still at the bottom. A little jealous.

"Gemini? The second round? The Clippers should calm down and fight for the playoffs."

"Eric Gordon is the true core of the Clippers. After the injury, the Clippers have ushered in a four-game losing streak."

After the Clippers' four-game losing streak, their record has come to 12 wins and 10 losses. As "many people" wished, in the fiercely competitive West, the Clippers, who were close to the top half a few days ago, have fallen to eighth in the West .

On the plane from Miami to Salt Lake City, everyone's heart is very heavy. Four consecutive losses against players like Anson and Blake Griffin who have just played more than a dozen games and have developed confidence some time ago Players is undoubtedly a huge hit.

Del Negro is not good at motivating players. He is more academic and has set up a barrier between himself and the players. Except for training and games, he has very little communication with the players.

Assistant coach Marc Evaroni shook his head and began to assume the role of chicken soup for the soul.He first applauded suddenly, and started to say to the downcast Clippers: "Guys, don't lower your head, you did a great job, think about how the media and fans treated us at the beginning of the season. What is your prediction?"

The Clippers players who just heard here are still a little confused, especially the young people. They almost handed themselves over to the training hall for the whole summer. To be honest, they really didn't understand their position.

"TNT is the media that is most optimistic about us, but they estimate us as the 10th in the West. We are in the best of times, but also in the worst of times." Mark Evaroni smiled at all the players Said, "Maybe now you will find that there are many strong teams against us in the West, with various multi-giant, multi-all-star teams. This is a time full of strong enemies, just like what we encountered. The Heat and the Trail Blazers, they rank above us. It's not that I'm not confident enough, it's the fact, but it doesn't mean we need to be afraid, at least, we can't disappoint the fans during the game."

It might not be enough for other people, rookies like Anson and Eric Bledsoe, or just signed players like Ryan Gomez and Randy Foye, but But Blake Griffin deeply felt the love of Los Angeles Clippers fans for him.

At the last moment of the start of last season, his injury directly caused him to miss the entire season, but the fans will never leave him, and they still hold up the slogans of cheering for him in every home game where he does not play , In the hearts of fans, Blake Griffin is the future of this Clippers team that has sunk for decades.It's only one year, they can afford to wait, but this year, fortunately, they once again chose Anson who can be the future, but Blake Griffin's affection for them is obviously deeper.

"That's right, in the next game, I will never give up the victory again. Is the devil playing at Salt Lake City?" Blake Griffin narrowed his eyes slightly, and he had already made a secret decision in his heart that he must end in Salt Lake City own losing streak.

This air meeting still has a great effect on the Clippers. At least when they got off the plane in Salt Lake City, they had completely different mental outlooks than when they boarded the plane in Miami.
