The strongest basket king

Chapter 289 Advantages
During this time, Xiang Chu was always accompanied by Jim Smith's assistant. This guy must pay attention to March Madness. From time to time, he called Xiang Chu to brag about his vision, but Xiang Chu didn't bother to care about him.

However, Jim Smith may really sign one or two good players this time, and Xiang Chu's highlight performance is the best advertisement for him.

If in the past, Xiang Chu would have guarded the NCAA, but now he really doesn’t have so much time, only those who are interested will pay attention. As for what kind of rookies the team needs to choose, Xiang Chu will also express his own opinions, but not which ones to recommend Players, but recommended player types, which are chosen by the team.

The staff of the team must be more professional than him in this regard, he just asked Jim Smith to communicate with the team.

Now all his energy is still focused on the team's performance, winning the first place in the regular season, and then feeling proud in the playoffs.

If it weren't for the teams behind the Western Conference who really can't see who will become the eighth, Xiang Chu might study the opponents in the first round now. The team's condition this season is really good.

Of course, there is no doubt that the Nuggets' main opponents in the West are the Spurs and Thunder.

The Clippers, Rockets, and Trail Blazers may also become troubles, but it will not be too late to pay attention to these second gears in the playoffs.

Oh, the Clippers still have to pay attention, because they are going to play against the Clippers when they return home.

Because the Blazers have lost consecutive games, the Clippers are now fourth in the Western Conference, but the Rockets' fifth record is also relatively close.

After the Blazers are known to everyone, the threat is really much less. Before the All-Stars, they were still in the first place, but now they are a little bit out of everyone.

The Clippers' performance in the first half of the season did not meet expectations, and supplements were made during the season.

They signed the former All-Star Granger, who was no longer strong due to injuries, and signed a heavy insider Glenn Davis.

The Clippers are also suffering from injuries, so Redick will not be able to play this time.

This is more favorable for the Nuggets, a good three-pointer is too troublesome to put up.

Paul, on the other hand, is relatively easy. He is able to rely on his ability to force himself, and Paul is not the type of explosive points.

The Nuggets are definitely not a big or a small, and Griffin is also a headache for them at the fourth position.

However, Xiang Chu will take a good look at the basket and will not let the Clippers' two insiders casually catch up.

If Griffin wants to play, he will play CIC honestly. If he rushes in, Xiang Chu will definitely help defend.

The Clippers' arrangement for Xiang Chu is that Jordan will be the main defense, and generally will not flank, Griffin should focus on the offensive end.

Griffin hit one at the beginning of the game. He was able to hold the ball, and it was difficult for Faried to defend.

But Xiang Chu immediately retaliated. Jordan's defense is not bad, but his strength is still a bit weak. If he is alone, there is really little restriction on Xiang Chu.

He can't beat Xiang Chu, which is why he and Xiang Chu are prone to fouls.

In the next performance, Xiang Chu will be significantly higher than Griffin, whether it is offensive or defensive.

Griffin is still a bit weak in defense, and he doesn't have Xiang Chu's ability to control the overall situation.

Without Redick, the Clippers' outside offense is still a bit weak, and Paul often needs to come in person.

Griffin is on the inside, and it's not easy to come in. At the beginning, Jordan was ambitious and wanted to fight Xiang Chu, but after being blocked, he became honest and didn't want to attack at all.

Therefore, the weakest point of the Clippers is offense.

The key is that Crawford can't get hurt either. Crawford's injury is a minor problem. The Clippers don't have the confidence to fight the Nuggets now, and they don't plan to fight this time.

During the rotation period, the Nuggets still had the upper hand, Williams played normally, Chandler returned to the bench and played well, maybe he is suitable for the bench.

Seeing that the team was about to fall behind by double digits, the Clippers quickly replaced Paul and Griffin.

They have no plans to fight the Nuggets, but they must always work hard to win the best.

The Clippers have to get the home court advantage now, otherwise their hard-fought upgrade lineup will seem a bit ridiculous.

After they introduced Paul, they did not perform well, and there must be a lot of rumors outside.

Paul has been the number one guard for a while. Although it's hard to say now, he hasn't made it to the Western Conference Finals yet, and he's under a lot of pressure.

Paul is also a very strong type. If the team's record is always unsatisfactory, conflicts will definitely break out in the team.

Competitive sports are like this. It’s good to win anything, but there will always be problems when you lose.

Paul and Griffin are both All-Stars, and they are not the weakest. The two of them directly started the scoring mode, and the Clippers' situation suddenly improved a lot.

Just defensively, they can't solve the problem.

Jordan made four fouls and went down to rest in despair. Glenn Davis' movement and height were not enough in front of Xiang Chu. Xiang Chu was not the rookie who insisted on going to the basket. Glenn Davis is like playing.

So even if Paul and Griffin showed their strength and hit double figures in a single quarter, the Nuggets still maintained a 6-point lead at the end of the first half.

And to be honest, Paul and Griffin fought a little bit fiercely in the first half, which will affect them if they want to rely on shooting to fight against the Nuggets.

Paul and Griffin can't kill the Nuggets, their explosiveness is a bit poor.

If the Clippers continue to play like this in the second half, the Nuggets can grind them to death.

The Nuggets are always stronger in the second half, not to mention Xiang Chu's uniqueness, the team can always find a few reliable helpers for Xiang Chu at the last moment after watching the team's state in the first half.

At the end of the quarter, the strength of the Nuggets is definitely one of the best in the league.

Moreover, the opponent's inside defense inherently has hidden dangers.

In the third quarter, the Clippers were still Griffin's main attack, but the efficiency was as high as in the second quarter.

For the Nuggets, Knight's performance on the perimeter is the most stable, but their advantage lies in Xiang Chu.

Before half a quarter, Jordan made five fouls at this point, and the Clippers were in trouble.

Glenn Davis came up and could only try to push Xiang Chu out, but that didn't help.

So his actions immediately increased, and he fouled three times in a short period of time.

Now the Clippers really can't hold on inside, they can be said to be forced to play a small lineup.

And even if they play a small lineup, Griffin is not good at defense, but they can flank. They let Granger come up to flank. Granger's physical fitness has dropped a lot now, but his experience is still there.

This is also a method, but it is the Nuggets who lead the score. They cause a little trouble for the Nuggets, which is of no use to the overall situation of the game.

If they want to reverse the score, they must explode on the offensive end.
