The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 359 DPOY (Ten Thousand Words Chapter)
In the 14-15 season, all teams in the NBA are speeding up. Compared with basketball in 09, the rhythm of the game has changed a lot.

The number of pick-and-rolls has increased, the number of shots outside the three-point line has increased, and the tactics have become simpler. Most of the time, scoring depends on switching offenses.

Even the slowest Heat team averaged 77.2 shots per game during the regular season, and the 28th-ranked Kings averaged 80.7 shots per game.

This season, the Clippers averaged 88.9 shots per game, ranking first in the league, followed by the Celtics, Nuggets, and Warriors. These three teams averaged more than 87 shots per game. Second-rate.

The Pelicans are quite satisfactory, ranking 19th, averaging 82.9 shots per game and scoring 99.4 points.

Coach Monty Williams is not an excellent offensive coach, but he still has a lot of experience in defensive training. During the regular season, he restricted opponents to score 98.6 points, ranking 11th in the league.

Relatively excellent defense is the foundation of the Pelicans, but in the playoffs, the new team may not have played its due strength because it was too nervous.

In G1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, after halftime, the critics of America were already dumbfounded!
At 37:67, although the Clippers' firepower declined in the second quarter, the 2-point difference in the halftime completely broke the defense of the Pelicans fans
During the halftime break, Reggie Miller was beaming in the commentary booth. As a veteran of UCLA, he has always been firm with Li Zechuan. The alumni relationship is considered to be the same camp.

"The defense of the Pelicans has completely collapsed. The coaching staff may have thought the game too simply. Asik seemed very uncomfortable with the rhythm of the game on the court."

Reggie Miller directly pointed out the Pelicans' omissions in the first half of the game, and Asik was caught in the pick-and-roll.

The commentator Kevin Harlan did not expect the game to become like this. Feeling the increasingly fiery atmosphere in the Staples Arena, he could only simply comment:
"The playoffs will magnify the team's weaknesses. This game is no longer important. Coach Monty Williams should think about how to adjust the next series!"

In the locker room of the visiting team, everyone on the Pelicans was a little dazed, and everyone hadn't recovered from the blow of being 30 points behind at halftime.

Coach Monty Williams saw the situation of his players, he could only clap his hands and said loudly:
"Don't care about the outcome tonight, there are 7 games in the series, what we have to do is win 4 of them!"

"We need to score, whether it's a three-pointer or a free throw, we have to show our game attitude, and everyone has to defend."

The words of the head coach finally made everyone in the Pelicans come back to their senses, but thinking about the problem of defense, everyone still felt a little numb and couldn't defend themselves.
Anthony Davis scored 1 of 4 in the first quarter and only scored 1 points. In the second quarter, he scored 2 of 2 and 5 of 3 free throws. He scored 4 points and 3 points in the half. His performance was quite satisfactory.

However, Anthony Davis himself was very dissatisfied with his own performance. He promised to show his talent, but he was beaten at halftime.

"It's good to get a win in the away game. We will continue to go all out in the second half and treat it as a warm-up for the game the day after tomorrow!"

Seeing that everyone was silent, Holiday couldn't help comforting his teammates.

"."

Quincy Poundset was still a little bit depressed, he already had a psychological shadow, and he really didn't want to play against Li Ze.

The huge difference of 30 points turned the Staples Arena into a sea of ​​joy early.

Of course, the Clippers fans at the scene knew that the team would win. In the second half of the game, fans were more concerned about whether the game was exciting and whether the main players could have more playing time.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Clippers took back the main lineup. Noticing that Griffin's right arm was still active, Li Ze asked in a low voice:

"If you feel uncomfortable, remember to report to the coaching staff, the game is over!"

Griffin took the ball and prepared to serve the baseline. Hearing Li Ze's words, he simply responded:
"No problem, it's just that the intensity of the competition in the past two months is not high, and I feel a little uncomfortable."

The Clippers took the lead in attacking and sent the baseline ball. Li Ze and Griffin quickly passed the half court. Facing Holiday's lead defense, Paul pressed for 8 seconds and crossed the center line.

"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"

Quincy Pondexter noticed that Lee and Griffin were at the free throw line and immediately realized that the Clippers were going to run the pick-and-roll again.

After halftime, Paul first used Griffin's cover at the top of the arc to accelerate the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand.

Griffin, who made a false screen, did not block Holiday, and after a quick roll down, Li Ze immediately made an up screen for Griffin at the free throw line.

Anthony Davis was delayed, but the big man's defensive agility was extremely high, and he turned around and squeezed through the delay in an instant, continuing to chase Griffin who was going down.

Quincy Poundset was a little numb at this time. After seeing Li Ze cover, he quickly bounced to the right flank beyond the three-point line, and could only chase and defend desperately.

It's a pity that Paul shot the ball very fast, and Li Ze received Paul's pass as soon as he came beyond the three-point line.

Falsely raising the ball, Quincy Poundset's defensive center of gravity moved forward subconsciously. Seeing Li Ze's right hand release the ball and make a breakthrough, he quickly slid back.

Too afraid of Li Ze's breakthrough, the sliding step was too large, and Li Ze seized the opportunity. After taking a step, he suddenly pulled back under the crotch, and then returned to the three-point line again, and quickly shot a jump shot from the right wing!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!

The linking action was too fast, Quincy Ponderset didn't even make a defensive move, Li Ze had already shot
Some fans in the front row saw Li Ze put up three fingers, and they also stood up and raised their hands to cheer.

Li Ze, as the player with the highest outside shooting percentage in the regular season, is naturally the key target of the Pelicans.

But in the actual game, with the combination of sudden shots, it is difficult for Quincy Pondexett to predict how Li Ze wants to attack.

The Pelicans attacked again, and Anthony Davis received another pass at the elbow to the right of the free throw line.

Facing Griffin's defense, he put the ball with his right hand after a tentative step, turned around suddenly after a dribble, then ignored the defense, and scored two points from the middle distance of the free throw line.

With a height of 2 meters, he has excellent agility. Anthony Davis often plays face-to-face singles. If the opponent's defense is out of position, he can even break through the frame like a defender.

This kind of play is very rare in the era when big men frequently fell to the low post, and the son of Amelika is not just blowing.

"Shet! Does this guy only know how to shoot jump shots!"

Griffin was also looking forward to the opponent being able to compete with him in the low post, just like Randolph was entangled with him, but he didn't expect that in the playoffs, his style of play was the same as the regular season, most of the offense was floating shots
"It's just a two-pointer! Pay attention to the rebound!"

Paul saw that Jordan was stuck behind Asik in this round, and reminded him loudly again.

After scoring the goal, Anthony Davis was a little dissatisfied with this offensive choice. He obviously wanted to use the defender's breakthrough to eat cakes in the penalty area.

But from the beginning of the game, Gordon was invisible, and Holiday was entangled by Paul so that it was difficult to play the ball. He either caught the ball in the block or caught the pot at the free throw line. Anthony Davis couldn't play his own characteristics at all.

"Break through the basket more!"

Taking advantage of returning to defense, Anthony Davis yelled at his outside teammates again, but naturally no one responded, and he couldn't move suddenly.
The Clippers' offensive rhythm also slowed down in the second half of the game. After halftime, Paul played another pick-and-roll at position 5.

With the help of Jordan's pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, Paul accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, and Asik immediately chose to switch defenses with a big delay.

It's just that the lateral movement speed of the feet was too slow. Paul suddenly paused slightly during the march, and then accelerated again. The change of rhythm almost passed Asik by one step.

Eric Gordon, who has been marking the right corner, saw that Paul was about to enter the penalty area, and subconsciously chose to shrink the defense. Paul scored the ball extremely fast, and Barnes in the right corner caught the ball and threw it away!
"state!"

The rebound just popped out, Jordan, who rushed inside, grabbed the ball in his arms, and then immediately threw the ball to Li Ze, who was outside the three-point line.

The left flank received the ball again, Griffin went up to the three-point line to pick and roll again, Li Ze held the ball in and out slightly with his right hand, and then suddenly accelerated.

When approaching the three-point line, he changed direction sharply and quickly passed Griffin's right side.

Anthony Davis came up to help defend the first time, and the fans immediately cheered when they saw the two facing each other.

Faced with a long-delayed defense change, Li Ze, who held the ball in his left hand, did not rush to attack, but slowly pulled the ball beyond the three-point line.

Anthony Davis not only followed, but also took the opportunity to clap his hands enthusiastically, constantly encouraging his defense.

Holding his right hand high and lowering his defensive center of gravity, Anthony Davis stared at Li Ze's movements.

Seeing that the opponent really planned to switch defenses, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, suddenly went in and out sharply. While sliding his body to the right, he suddenly lowered his center of gravity, swayed to the right and suddenly accelerated to the left.

Anthony Davis reacted very quickly and slid back to the right in an instant. Li Zeyun took a big step, noticed the opponent's defensive movement, and immediately crossed back and pulled back.

With a huge range of motion, a gap was instantly swayed, and Li Ze, who switched to his right hand holding the ball, continued to accelerate his breakthrough.

Although he was attacked to the front of the defense, the talented Anthony Davis readjusted his defensive focus. With his excellent agility and huge strides, he caught up with Li Ze again in two strides.

The two rushed into the paint almost at the same time. Anthony Davis tried his best to block the block, but the next second, Li Ze, who was advancing, suddenly dribbled the ball behind his back and then retreated.

Taking a big step away again, Anthony Davis saw Li Ze catching the ball, and subconsciously rushed up. He noticed that Li Ze hadn't shot in the air, and was annoyed in his heart, but the huge inertia prevented him from making too many adjustments.

Li Ze hung up on Anthony Davis and forced a mid-range jumper!
"squeak!"

"Shua!" The whistle blew and the ball went in!
Hearing the cheers, Anthony Davis knew that the goal had been scored again, and felt a little frustrated. This was the third time in this game that Li Ze succeeded in singles.

Li Ze secretly called it a fluke. Fortunately, he feels hot. Facing such a big man with long arms and flexible arms, it is not easy for a small man to beat a big man.
"9 points! Remember to choose double-team defense next time!"

Li Ze still looked calm on the surface, stood on the free throw line, and gave friendly suggestions.

"."

Every quarter of the game, Li Ze will be accompanied by a foul, plus a 30-point difference. Faced with this kind of ridicule, Anthony Davis can only keep silent.

“17中12，其中三分球6中4，罚球6中6，34分5篮板4助攻，如果鹈鹕队不过早放弃比赛，今晚我们大概率会看到Kayce砍下40+。”

Li Zejia made a free throw, and the commentator Kevin Harlan did not mention the score on the field, but began to talk about Li Ze's data.

"Anthony Davis played very well on the defensive end, and Kayce reduced some breakthroughs. I have to say that such a big man may be the template for the future insider."

Reggie Miller also followed suit with Sons of America, and everyone praised Anthony Davis regardless of his performance.

Coach Monty Williams did not choose to replace the main players prematurely. He wanted his players to adapt to the rhythm of the playoffs.

It's just that after seeing the Clippers slow down and waiting for them to make mistakes, and catching up on the counterattack, the coaching staff of the Pelicans didn't look good. They lead so much and don't fight around. God?

Griffin slapped and lemon essence possessed him, Anthony Davis found his touch in the middle distance and scored 2 goals in front of him.

I always feel that the limelight on the field has been stolen by the opponent.
In the third quarter, the game proceeded step by step. With 2 minutes and 21 seconds left, Li Ze was replaced and Crawford was ready to play again.

Seeing Li Ze walk to the bench, the fans at the scene immediately applauded. Steve Ballmer, who was under the basketball stand, applauded and cheered at the same time.

Tyronn Lu got up and bumped fists with Li Ze. Coach De Nagro also smiled and patted Jin Thigh on the shoulder. Tonight's task has been completed.

"With such players in the team, I can also become a champion coach!"

看到技术统计上19中14，三分球7中5，罚球8中8，41分6篮板6助攻3抢断1盖帽的数据，泰伦-卢心中也恰起了柠檬，只能感叹德纳格罗运气太好
As soon as Li Ze sat in his seat, Jokic on the side immediately handed over the towel, and whispered by the way:
"The playoffs look similar to the regular season, it doesn't seem to be any different!"

Li Ze shook his head amusedly, seeing Fatty Bai's serious expression, he immediately asked with a smile:
"If you are on the court and the opponent keeps attacking you with pick-and-rolls, and the outside players can't squeeze through in the first place, how many rounds do you think you can last?"

Seemingly remembering the previous encounter with the Warriors, Jokic scratched his head, and finally said:
"As long as my body is stronger, I can also punish those little guys in the low post!"

Hearing the stumbling English, Li Ze just smiled and indicated that Jokic should go to warm up. Fatty Bai wants to get the contract, so he has to continue to practice physically.

For the Clippers, the last quarter of the game completely turned into garbage time, but the Pelicans insisted on letting the main lineup continue to play.

Coach Monty Williams still stood on the sidelines, loudly reminding his players to run tactics.

Anthony Davis also opened fire at the last moment, making consecutive mid-range and breakthrough baskets, and finally narrowed the point difference to 20 points!
With 3 minutes and 02 seconds left in the game, coach Monty Williams officially replaced the main lineup.

21中11，29分7篮板1助攻1盖帽4失误，数据不错，但下场的安东尼-戴维斯却显得非常沮丧。

The cheers in the Staples Arena continued, and Ingles and Reggie Bullock also scored three-pointers after their debut.

In the expectant eyes of the Pelicans, the game time finally ran out. In the end, at 97:122, the Clippers easily defeated their opponents at home, and the series came to a score of 1:0.

The players from both sides shook hands briefly, and then everyone in the Pelicans quickly left the arena. They lost too much and lost all face.
At the press conference after the game, the head coach Monty Williams said that the team still needs to learn from the defending champion, and this game is considered a tuition fee.

Amelia's media reporters blew it up after the game, and helped the Clippers loan the championship by the way!
Due to the premature end of the game, TNT also commented immediately after the game:

"This is the dominance of the defending champion. The two sides' grasp of the rhythm of the game is not on the same level!"

"Chris Paul scored 14 of 8 and scored 20 points, Griffin scored 17 of 9 and scored 25 points, plus Kayce's 41 points, the three scored 86 points."

"That's why the Clippers will be No. 1 in the regular season, 73 wins, no one is their opponent this season!"

Charles Barkley talked eloquently in front of the camera, never mentioning that he was optimistic about the Pelicans before the game.
Kenny Smith watched his old partner suddenly change direction, and could only smile and shake his head:

"Guys, how do you guys think Anthony Davis is doing?"

Upon hearing this question, O'Neill immediately took up the conversation:

“Pillow soft! (Soft as a pillow!)”

"Most of the points came from jump shots. The first three quarters were very average. He needs to attack the basket more. As a power forward, he played like a shooting guard. I am very disappointed in this!"

The host Ernie Johnson heard O'Neill's comments and immediately changed the subject with a smile:

"It seems that we have the same opinion tonight, and the Clippers will reach the Finals!"

"Eastern League, who will break out?"

Kenny Smith seemed to think of something when he heard such a question, and immediately said with emotion:
"Seriously! If LeBron reaches the finals again this year, we should give him respect!"

The playoffs will magnify the strengths and weaknesses of the stars, and the fans have evolved to the point of a game, so Anthony Davis was sprayed by the fans after the game.
In the other three games, the Wizards defeated the Raptors in an upset.

The two sides fought hard for an overtime, and finally, at 93:96, with Paul Pierce's outstanding performance, the Wizards won a valuable away victory.

The Raptors fans were extremely enthusiastic, but they broke the defense after the game.

德罗赞20中6，拿到15分，洛瑞10中2，砍下7分.
球队被38岁的保罗-皮尔斯给打爆了！这位老将10中7，其中三分球7中4，罚球2中2，砍下20分，加时赛更是连拿5分！
After the loss, the Raptors fans couldn't accept it. The two shots in the backcourt were no match for the old Pierce.

In contrast, the Bulls are very stable, 91:103, relying on the outstanding performance of Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler, the Bulls easily defeated the Bucks.

Derek Rose, who returned from injury, scored 16 of 9, scored 23 points, 7 assists, 2 steals and 4 turnovers. The fans in Chicago were very happy. The healthy Rose is still the top star in the league!
Everyone in the Bucks is brave, but it is difficult to score. Khris Middleton is the only bright spot on the field. He was the 2012th pick in the second round of 9, but he performed like a star player in this game.

He scored 17 of 7 and scored the Bucks' highest 18 points. This performance is also better than Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Another focus battle, 102:108, the Warriors narrowly beat the Mavericks.

出战40分钟的斯蒂芬-库里全场25中13，其中三分球13中4，罚球7中4，砍下34分4篮板5助攻3抢断3失误。

而勇士队的前核心蒙塔-艾利斯则表现平平，16中5，拿到16分4助攻2抢断3失误。

In this battle of proof, Curry finally had the last laugh.

On the morning of the 19th, the coaching staff of the Clippers simply replayed last night's game. This kind of video lesson is mainly to allow the players to fully rest.

Physical fitness is very important in the playoffs. Everyone is not in the mood to stretch the front line and sweep the opponent, which is the goal of the Clippers in the first round.

"Reducing the low-post attack was really the right choice. We destroyed the opponent with the pick-and-roll."

After the start of this season, Chris Paul once doubted the decision made by the coaching staff, but as the team is getting better and better, now he can only shout "really fragrant"
"That's because the opponent is too weak. In the future, low-post attacks will definitely be needed. Big men just need to show their dominance in the low post."

During the regular season, Griffin, as the Clippers player with the most post-ups this season, naturally hopes that his tactics will tilt to the low post.

The two disagreed, and Griffin poked Li Ze, who had changed into his training uniform:

"Being able to score is a good tactic. Whether it's a low-post offense or a pick-and-roll offense, it mainly depends on the opponent. Facing the Pelicans, you must play more pick-and-rolls. Asik is not Davis!"

Li Ze's words were recognized by Paul, and Griffin was a little unhappy. He wanted to get more performance in the playoffs.

It's just that in the playoffs, Li Ze became the team's first offensive option, and everyone had to serve the golden thighs. Griffin was depressed and could only accept the reality
As a player in the contract year, Jordan was actually a little cautious, but he didn't dare to make a sound when he thought that he would annoy Paul and lose the chance to eat cakes. After all, his free throws were really stretched.

Veteran Barnes can see clearly from the sidelines. Of course, he knows that many players have more thoughts this season, but everyone is working together for the three consecutive championships:

"The offseason is going to be a lot of fun for sure."

Barnes did not speak, his salary is not high, and he likes to live in Los Angeles, so as long as the team does not trade him, he has always planned to stay with the Clippers.

On the evening of the 19th, the first round of the playoffs continued, and the focus of the night was naturally the game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers.

Although the performance of the regular season was a bit broken, after entering the playoffs, facing a bunch of new Celtics, the Cavaliers finally played a dominant role.

At 100:113, the Cavaliers at home successfully defeated their opponents and ushered in a good start to the playoffs.

Head coach David Blatt used his strongest tactics in the first game. Both Irving and James played 1 minutes.

21中11，三分球9中5，罚球5中3，30分3篮板2助攻1抢断1盖帽1失误，季后赛萌新凯里-欧文表现得无可挑剔。

勒布朗-詹姆斯18中8，拿到20分，乐福14中5，砍下19分12篮板的两双数据。

Cavaliers fans rejoice, they finally feel the taste of the playoffs again.

In another Eastern Conference game, 92:99, the Eagles struggled to beat the Nets.

Coach Reeves still has two brushes. Relying on chicken soup and oppressive guard tactics, he abruptly dragged the game to the fourth quarter.

It's just that after the game, the Chinese fans began to scold Rivers for using people as relatives. His son had 26 minutes of playing time, and the UAE only had 16 minutes.

8 of 5, 5 of 2 from outside the three-point line, 2 of 2 free throws, 14 points, 7 rebounds and 2 turnovers. The UAE, who came off the bench, also scored the fourth highest score in the team. It's a three-pointer
In two games in the Western Conference, the Rockets beat the Trail Blazers 98:118; the Spurs beat the Grizzlies 100:104.

Beard player, 11 of 4, 5 of 1 from beyond the three-point line, 17 of 15 free throws, scored 24 points!
Coach Stott fired directly after the game:
"The referee ruined the game! Unbelievable, James Harden made 17 free throws alone, and our team only made 17 free throws!"

The response to such complaints was a fine of 25000 US dollars. The referee said that their whistleblowing was absolutely fair and just!

With the end of the regular season, the selection of various awards in the 14~15 season has also officially started.

The Defensive Player of the Year award has received the most attention this season.

Of course, this award is often more biased towards the flow of impressions. Media reporters are expected to analyze each player in detail and know the high-level data like the back of their hands. It is estimated that such a situation can only appear in a dream.

Since 08, most of the award selections will select the best defensive player from the top 5 teams in the league on the defensive end.

That's why Joakim Noah won the award last season, because the Bulls were really good defensively.
However, the situation has changed this season. The Clippers rushed to third in the league on the defensive end, and Li Ze won the steals again.

Facing Leonard with a good voice, Li Ze showed a dominant performance again. With the blessing of various circumstances, the voting media naturally had a bias.

Unlike general impression streaming media, ESPN reporters voted for Li Ze without hesitation.

Li Ze's personal defensive efficiency is 95.0, which crushes all players in the league!
Of course, the defensive end certainly can't just look at individual performance, and the Clippers also provide bonuses, but with high-level data support, everyone can vote confidently.

Even if it is an impression streaming media, you will not be ridiculed after voting, after all, Li Ze Excel is invincible!

The results of the selection actually came out very early, but in order to catch up on the hot topic, the NBA insisted on delaying the award until after the end of the first round of G1.

On the morning of the 20th, in the press conference hall of the Staples Center, Li Ze, dressed in a dark blue suit, accepted the Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY) trophy from the league staff with a smile.

Seeing the little bronze figure in a defensive posture in his hand, Li Ze looked calm and kept smiling for the camera.

In addition to taking pictures, the sports media present also applauded immediately, witnessing history!

As soon as Li Ze sat down, ESPN reporters immediately flattered him:

"Congratulations! Kayce! After Michael Jordan, you are the second player in NBA history to average 2+ per game and get DPOY!"

"I think this is definitely an insurmountable record. Can you talk about your feelings at this time?"

Li Ze looked at the trophy, then straightened the microphone, and said briskly:

"I am very happy to receive this award. We all know that in order to win the championship, the team must have an excellent defense."

"I just did what I should do, set an example on the defensive end, and went all out. This award actually belongs to everyone in the Clippers. We played a wonderful performance this season!"

"Thanks to my teammates, thanks to the coaching staff, this award is the best affirmation for us!"

The audience is full of flattery. Since the 21st century, Li Ze is the first backcourt to get DPOY. Although physically speaking, Li Ze is more like a forward, but no one cares about this at this time.

The NBA league needs gimmicks, and fans are also happy to see Li Ze win the award, with both offense and defense. How resounding is this title!

Li Ze successfully won the award, so naturally someone picked a lemon, Leonard continued to practice hard, and Draymond Green has already possessed lemon essence
In this year's All-Star Game, Green and Kevin Hart warmed up for the three-point contest, and it was clear that the NBA still regarded him as a small player.

A second-round pick can show his face in the All-Star Game, which is already a big face, but Green only feels like a clown, and can only watch Li Ze win the three-pointer contest championship, and then detonate Madison Square Garden, won the slam dunk contest championship.

Facing the interviews by the media, Green, who was somewhat inferior, seemed very confident and kept emphasizing that he was the DPOY of this season. As a result, the media voted and finally chose Li Ze.

Everyone on the Warriors team preparing for the game in Oakland could sense Draymond Green's frustration.

For ordinary players, it is really too difficult to win an award, but it is extremely disappointing to be nominated but lose in the end.

As a master of chicken soup, Steve Kerr can naturally perceive Green's thoughts:

"You are only 25 years old, believe me, in the next few years, you will definitely get this award, maintain the current state, the team needs your vitality!"

Hearing the comfort from the head coach, Green nodded silently. On the surface, he remained calm, but the seeds of jealousy took root in his heart.
There were two games on the 20th, and the heat of the day belonged to Li Ze.

The NBA first posted a photo of Li Ze with the three trophies on Instagram:
"Stealing leader, scoring leader, best defensive player! The greatness continues!"

Then on Twitter, the data of Li Ze and Michael Jordan when they got DPOY in 88:

“35.0分5.5篮板5.9助攻3.2抢断1.6盖帽3.1失误。”

"The only one in history, witness the greatness!"

It's just that under this tweet, another war of strife started. Some fans were not convinced that Li Ze won the award, and some fans were boasting about Jordan, belittling Li Ze without thinking, and the two sides were torn into a ball.
On the night of the 20th, at the Staples Arena, the fans kept cheering for the Clippers after the game started.

Anthony Davis seems to be slowly adapting to the intensity of the playoffs by playing games.

After the opening, he frequently picked and rolled, facing Griffin's defense, and scored three consecutive mid-range jumpers.

On the defensive end, the Pelicans used double-teaming after the opening. As long as Li Ze got the ball, the nearest players would double-team.

At the same time, several people on the outside kept changing defenses, trying to use different defensive methods to interfere with Li Ze's offense.

The score was 6:6, the Clippers attacked again, and the fans followed the DJ and kept shouting:
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"

After halftime, Paul was constantly harassed by Holiday. From the beginning, Paul was led by his opponent. Holiday stepped up physical confrontation, trying to use muscle collisions to affect Paul's touch.

Griffin and Jordan stood in the left and right blocks respectively, while Matt Barnes stood on the right flank, noticing that the defender in front of him was replaced by Quincy Poundset, and immediately went to the line run.

Eric Gordon switched defenses in front of Li Ze. There was a height gap between the two, so Gordon kept making small moves, pulling the jersey covertly and hugging covertly, preventing Li Ze from easily receiving the ball.

The moment Barnes moved, Li Ze suddenly accelerated and quickly ran around Griffin to the baseline. After slipping from left to right, he quickly bounced to the three-point line with the help of Jordan's cover in the right block Outer right flank.

After Eric Gordon was delayed, he was only one step slower. Seeing Li Ze receive a pass from Paul, he immediately rushed to defend.

But in the next second, he became numb. Eric Gordon found that Li Ze ignored his block and forced a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Kayce! Buries The three!"

The three-pointer went hollow into the net, and the commentator Kevin Harlan also yelled.

This kind of projection that ignores the opponent's defense has a strong visual impact!
Hearing the cheers of the fans, Eric Gordon heard Li Ze's voice of appreciation:

"Nice defensive move, Bro! But I'm not going to hold back tonight."

Li Ze patted Gordon again to express his appreciation.

The two can be regarded as superficial brothers with a good relationship. When Eric Gordon was still in Los Angeles, everyone often had fun together.

This kind of deliberate foot retraction after landing, ordinary players will not pay attention
After the opening, the Clippers took advantage of the opponent's double-teaming, played more and less frequently, and scored easily at the basket. As a result, this time Li Ze fired directly from outside the three-point line, blooming inside and outside, and everyone on the Pelicans faintly felt something was wrong.

Holiday clapped his hands, signaled to quickly serve the baseline ball, and at the same time reminded his teammates loudly:
"The game has just begun! Hold on to the rhythm!"

After halftime, first he continued to pass from the outside to stretch the offensive space, and then Holiday picked and rolled Anthony Davis on the left wing, briefly got rid of Paul's defense, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand.

Attracts Griffin's attention and immediately returns the ball to Anthony Davis at the free throw line.

The latter catches the ball and quickly shoots a mid-range jumper!
"Bang!" Angrily strike!
Anthony Davis was a little annoyed. Seeing the long rebound just fell into Li Ze's arms, he couldn't help cursing inwardly.

After controlling the ball, Li Ze immediately held the ball in his left hand and launched a conversion attack.

Eric Gordon tried to get more physical and pushed Li Ze to the left sideline, but he soon found that his defense seemed to be ineffective, and Li Ze carried him across the half-court.

Neither of them slowed down, and rushed directly to the left flank beyond the three-point line. At the moment when it was close to the three-point line, Li Ze suddenly circled the ball behind his back, his body swayed to the right, and then his center of gravity lowered, and he changed direction under the crotch .

Stopped and started quickly, due to the difference in size, Eric Gordon was crushed and squeezed by Li Ze, and the moment he broke through, his body was even staggered.

Anthony Davis, who returned to defense early, saw Li Ze go straight to the basket, and immediately jumped high.

With excellent jumping and height, Anthony Davis in the air is confident and ready to block Li Ze.

Li Ze, who took off on one foot, did not choose to fight directly. Facing the block, he quickly put the ball in his arms, curled up his body at the same time, and gliding behind the backboard with his excellent airborne.

Amidst the exclamation of the fans at the scene, he stretched his body again in the air, then twisted his body at the bottom right of the basket, twisted his right wrist, and deftly picked the basket!

Anthony Davis landed first, turned his head and widened his eyes at the same time, seeing the ball hit the board, he was stupid, why did he turn around?
The Clippers fans at the scene seemed to have just reacted, and when they saw the ball really fell into the basket, they shouted with excitement.

"Oh my god! Unbelievable!"

"Kayce, putting on a show tonight!"

The commentator Kevin Harlan saw the action played back on the big screen in the center of the field, and shouted excitedly again.

"Come on, Bro! You almost made the block!"

Seeing that Anthony Davis still had an unbelievable expression on his face, Li Ze retreated and sent his blessings.

In the next few rounds, Asik felt like he had turned into a switchback robot. As long as the Pelicans hit the iron, he would be attacked by the Clippers in transition.

Anthony Davis has a good touch and continues to complete the offense in the middle distance, but after the others hit the iron, the rebounds belong to the Clippers.

This non-aggressive style of play made the tempo on the field faster and faster.

Eric Gordon finally ran out of space on the right wing beyond the three-point line, received the pass, and rushed out.

The ball was still in the air, but it was discovered that Li Ze had already run forward. Eric Gordon twitched the corner of his mouth, and the ball finally hit the front of the basket. Griffin took advantage of the opportunity to protect the rebound, and then directly threw the ball To the front field.

With no one defending, Li Ze easily caught the ball, jumped with both feet in the paint area, grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, easily turned 360 degrees, and succeeded in dunking with one arm!

The score on the field came to 10:20, and the head coach Monty Williams couldn't stand it anymore and immediately requested a timeout.

"Beautiful pass! I like this kind of easy goal!"

Li Ze walked to the bench with a smile, and gave Griffin a high-five to celebrate.

"Remember to pass the ball to me later, too many transition attacks, I almost can't get the ball."

Griffin also ran wildly along with him, watching Li Ze layup easily for several consecutive rounds, envious to death in his heart.

On the TNT commentary seat, Reggie Miller noticed that there were 1 minutes and 6 seconds left in the first quarter, and then glanced at the score on the court, and immediately said in a brisk tone:

"Like G1, maybe the Clippers should consider the away game!"

The commentator Kevin Harlan could only shrug his shoulders when he heard the happy noise of the fans, and said in agreement:

"The Pelicans still need to continue to learn. This is the playoffs. Jump shots alone cannot beat the Clippers!"
