Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 469

The second game between the Lakers and the Clippers ended with a big victory for the Lakers.

After Paul left the show, he drove back to his home in Los Angeles, turned off his cell phone, and slept for 14 hours.

The Los Angeles Clippers are done!

This was the headline from ESPN the next day, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that this Clippers team wasn't even enough to win even one victory in the hands of the Lakers.

There used to be a troika of Paul, Griffin and Jordan, plus JJ Redick, Rivers Jr., Crawford and others. The Clippers also have high hopes from fans. Since Griffin left, it is not what it used to be.

Wharton still gave the team a day off, and Yuan Qingshan took Towns, Whiteside and Murray to train for a morning as usual.

After lunch, he went back to Zijin Villa alone, watching the latest news while drinking coffee.

The second game between the Warriors and the Timberwolves was also without suspense. The Timberwolves lost 33 points, Russell scored 17 points, and Wiggins scored 16 points. He didn't even get as many points as Russell.

As the core of the team, they scored very few points, but what is more noteworthy is that Thibodeau allowed them to play 40 minutes in this game.

Not scoring 40 points in 20 minutes, one can imagine how low the Timberwolves' shooting rate is.

Obviously, the Timberwolves have a problem now, and Thibodeau has no solution to the problem.

The score between the Thunder and the Spurs is still tight, but the Thunder has always had the advantage. Westbrook scored a triple-double for the second time in the playoffs, with 43 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists. According to experts, Westbrook defeated Popovich and the Spurs alone.

The Cavaliers beat the Pistons with a big score of 2 to 0. Drummond even wants to go fishing now.

The four giants of the Cavaliers are getting better and better. Irving gave up some shots and handed over the outside offense to Bill. Bill's advantages were maximized, and James finally found a second stable shooter besides Irving.

In this game, James scored 17 assists, setting a new personal playoff high. Most of them were distributed to Irving and Bill after the breakthrough.

In the first four games, the Heat led by Wade lost in the second game, and they lost to the Pacers.

Yuan Qingshan paid special attention to this game, not only because of Wade, but also because of Brogdon and Barnes.

In this game, Brogdon moved to the No. 23 position and no longer confronted Wade head-on. Under the defense of Dragic, he scored 10 points, 7 assists and 31 rebounds.

The game between the Rockets and the Jazz was also one-sided. Harden's shooting percentage dropped in the second game. However, Griffin was able to win the wind and rain in the Jazz inside.

After the game, there were voices questioning Harden. At the press conference, Griffin supported Harden. He said that Harden is the best backcourt player he has ever worked with.

Paul, who was far away in Los Angeles, was even more depressed after seeing the news. His wife touched his palm comfortingly and persuaded him that what Griffin said to the media was just a scene.

Paul felt bitter in his heart, and lay down on the sofa without saying a word.

The floor of the Western Conference Finals is so far away.

The Celtics and the Bucks drew 1-1. Antetokounmpo relied on his amazing talent to tie the score. However, after a jump shot in the last 3 minutes, he stepped on McConley's foot and sprained his right foot. He didn't even participate in the press conference after the game. He was sent directly to the airport and returned to Milwaukee early.

Kidd took other core players for an interview. A reporter asked if the Celtics were stepping up on purpose. Kidd replied, don't think about the problem so complicated. He and the assistant coach watched the slow-motion playback repeatedly. McConley was unintentional.

Antetokounmpo's injury has affected everyone's hearts. After two games, he averaged 27 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists per game. If it was just two random games in the regular season, it would be fine, but now it is the playoffs, and the Bucks are facing the Celtics, who are known for their defense. Getting this data in this environment is enough to prove that Antetokounmpo's gold content is high!

Yuan Qingshan watched the game highlights between the Bucks and the Celtics. The focus was on Antetokounmpo's performance.

Compared with other groups, the Raptors vs. Wizards game was a bit boring. The King of the North in the regular season and the trash brothers in the playoffs were not called for nothing. DeRozan and Lowry once again disappointed the Canadian fans.

The most irritating thing is that JR Smith, who was traded by the Wizards from the Cavaliers, also played a bright performance against the Raptors, scoring 34 points in a single game, 18 points in a single quarter, and 6 of 6 three-pointers!

The reporter asked LeBron James after the Wizards game, what did he think of JR Smith's performance so well.

James smiled and said: "Hey, don't forget, JR is our champion shooter!"

Reporter: "So, if the Wizards want to trade JR back for Bill now, what do you think?"

James coughed in embarrassment and said, "Sorry, my car is parked in a bad position, it seems to block other people, I think I have to leave quickly."

In the evening, JR Smith sent a message to James: "Boss, I saw what you said in the interview. Thank you for your trust in me. As long as you say something, I will come back to you at any time!"

James quickly turned off his phone and pretended to be asleep.

All the Eastern and Western playoffs have been played twice, and the third game is coming.

This game is regarded as the Los Angeles Lakers away game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

But in Los Angeles, there are far more people wearing Lakers jerseys at the Staples Center than the Clippers.

As soon as Paul walked into the field, he was speechless. In this series, let alone the advantage when it’s the home court’s turn, almost all the games are away games.

In the third game of the game, Walton's heart has been completely relieved at this time. After two games, he should have tasted it no matter what. Rivers has nothing to do with the Lakers.

Yes, there is no way. Who made the Clippers have a single core now? The single core is not popular in the NBA now, unless you have the explosive power of Westbrook. Unfortunately, Paul and Westbrook are not the same type. He is a traditional point guard and is used to activating the whole team.

Teammates are already in this state, who will activate it?

No way, the Lakers made another victory, and Paul was the first to leave the arena after the game with a livid face.
