NBA: I am the card dealer

During the game, Lillard was indeed choked. Facing Xue Liancheng's defense, he made consecutive three-pointers, but he only choked for a while, and then there were various blacksmithing performances.

Even free throws are not very accurate.

After the game, Lillard made 20 of 7, 10 of 4 three-pointers, and 7 of 4 free throws, and only scored 22 points.

Most of these 22 points were scored in the first quarter, which was a very tough moment, 7 of 4, 5 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 3 free throws, 14 points in a single quarter, which looked really fierce.

But in the last three quarters, he turned into a worm.

With Lillard stretching his hips like this, CJ McCollum failed to step up in time. He scored 13 points on 5 of 13 shots.

It's equivalent to having two guns misaligned.

You can imagine how difficult it is for the Trail Blazers to win.

Naturally, the Lakers couldn't give the Trail Blazers a chance. They defeated this powerful enemy 110:97.

Xue Liancheng's performance was average this time, making 19 of 9 shots and 9 of 3 three-pointers. Yes, he relied on his 3% shooting skills to score 26 three-pointers. He only scored 10 points, 5 assists and rebounds. Against Xue Liancheng, It's hard to say it's excellent.

George's recent performance has not been so amazing. He made 20 of 8 and only scored 19 points, which is hard to describe.

Randall was still vigorous, shooting 17 of 10 and scoring 24 points and 6 rebounds.

Feng Lai also languished in this game, hitting 8 of 3 and only scoring 7 points.

Fortunately, there is still a group of ferocious bench gangsters, especially Zubac. After falling to the bench, he seemed to release the pressure on his shoulders and played very efficiently, scoring 6 points on 5 of 12.

Not long after the game between the Lakers and Trail Blazers ended, they received some incredible good news.

The Clippers were defeated by the Kings at home. In the last five seconds, the Kings were 96 point behind 97:1. Ben McLemore made a shot, but missed.

Unexpectedly, Willie Cauley-Stein came out, grabbed the offensive rebound, and knocked the ball in.

There are only 3 seconds left on the clock.

In other words, this ball counts as a 3-second kill.

In the end, Paul took a shot from mid-range and ended up in a blackout, unable to recover.

In this way, the Clippers lost this must-win game for no reason, and their record came to 43 wins and 32 losses.

After the Lakers defeated the Trail Blazers, they ushered in five consecutive victories, with a record of 42 wins and 31 losses, and the two sides' wins were even.

In this case, it is natural to calculate the winning percentage of both sides to determine the ranking.

The Clippers have played two more games than the Lakers, with 43 wins and 32 losses, and a winning rate of 57.3%.

The Lakers have 42 wins and 31 losses, with a winning rate of 57.5%.

That's right.

It was with the Kings' buzzer-beater that the Lakers narrowly edged the Clippers, surpassed them ahead of schedule, and successfully reached fifth place in the Western Conference.

This time.

The fans are excited.

"What a waste! A good hand was played to pieces."

"What the hell, we're seven games ahead and we're actually being caught up?"

"With this performance, how long will it take for you to resign?"

"I really didn't expect that you could actually bring this top team to a level of badness that it shouldn't be."

"Mocking the Lakers? Are you so embarrassed? Do you have the qualifications?"

"He's got a big pig's head on his head. He doesn't have any tactical skills at all. He just yells and yells. Now he's fine. Isn't that embarrassing?"

Other fans didn't laugh, but the Clippers fans themselves exploded on the spot.

They may have thought in their minds that they would be surpassed, but they never expected that after losing to the Lakers, the team would lose to the Dallas Mavericks and the Sacramento Kings, two weak teams, and beat the old team in advance. The position of five was given up.

They couldn't accept this result.

It's simply unacceptable.

Even the Clippers' own fans can't accept it, let alone others.

Directly turn on the group teasing mode.

"Are you still bragging now?"

"Old Rivers' face is swollen like a pig's head."

"When someone interviewed him about whether he would keep his promise if he was surpassed, he swore that it would never happen. His mouth was as hard as a steel bar. Now that he is better, are he still hard-mouthed?"

"Paul can't do it! He is known as one of the greatest point guards in the 21st century, but... you brought two All-Stars and a bunch of high-quality role players, but you were pushed down year after year. This year is even worse, and you will fall to sixth place. The playoffs are even darker and there is no hope at all.”

"Indeed, the Clippers have been kicked out of the championship ranks. They are bastards, and they are so awesome that they want to compete head-on with the Lakers."

"Now the Clippers are all silent."

"What can I do if I don't keep silent? Are you so awesome that you can make it into the top four?"

"Haha! Not everyone has Xue Liancheng's confidence."

"What does it feel like to explode on the spot? Please answer this question from Old Rivers."

"Old Rivers said: He has no face to answer."

All kinds of extreme taunts continued, and it wasn't just the fans who were talking about it. Even famous mouthpieces were making fun of this matter.

Rivers Sr. has faced the biggest crisis of his career, with all kinds of doubts overwhelming him. Even if he does not accept interviews, he cannot avoid being attacked in all directions.

Uh……

The most important thing is that I don’t have the face to accept interviews.

No matter how tough-talking you are, you can't be tough now.

Randall posted a video of the dance on Twitter in a victorious manner.

Obviously, this is to express his excitement.

It feels a bit like adding insult to injury.

But no one would say anything.

After all, the two sides have been arguing for half a season, and Randall's response now is considered very gentle.

And the next day.

The Lakers once again ushered in a strong enemy, the Washington Wizards.

The last time the two sides met, Wall had already shown his top strength, and the Wizards also ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference with 44 wins and 29 losses. The overall strength is still very strong.

At least better than the boastful Blazers.

Record performance is one aspect, which is the most intuitive manifestation.

On the other hand, the two-gun combination of Wall and Bill has really exploded this season.

The two have very explosive scoring power, and Wall is a master of offensive organization, playing to the level of a top point guard.

In this regard, Lillard cannot be compared.

Bill is more like a sharp knife, and his stability may not be as good as CJ McCollum, but his scoring explosiveness is definitely better than CJ McCollum.

Coupled with the Wizards' overall lineup structure and lineup depth, they are not comparable to the Trail Blazers. They are obviously more difficult to deal with.

The game process also confirmed this.

The matchup between Xue Liancheng and Wall can be regarded as a mutual explosion.

Xue Liancheng couldn't stop Wall, well... It wasn't just Xue Liancheng who couldn't stop him, Courtney Lee couldn't do anything to lead the defense. Wall was really too fast, and his sense of timing was more mature than before. A lot.

of course.

Wall couldn't stop Xue Liancheng.

With Xue Liancheng's tonnage and strength, he can dominate 99.9% of defenders, and can even dominate the world with one trick.
