new lord of the rings

Chapter 69 To be honest, blocking caps and buckles are really cool!

At the beginning of the second half, the Warriors' starting lineup came on the field, namely Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Bogut, Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green.

The Clippers have Chris Paul, Bregg Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, JJ Redick, and Jamal Crawford. The expressions of the Clippers are calm, and it seems that there is no dispute in the locker room.

But as soon as you play, you can see the difference. The Clippers' offense and defense are both well-behaved. It seems that there is nothing the same as usual, but this is unusual.

The Warriors and the Clippers are enemies in the playoffs. Both sides are also fighting for the lead in the rankings, and the first half was very hot. The two sides were so angry that they were about to fight several times, but the second half was so calm. Even the audience off the field felt a little weird.

The Warriors are much more active, with high screens, wing cuts, and corner elevator tactics. The exquisite tactics are like flowing water. The Warriors players are very motivated and run very aggressively. Stretched.

Strangely, the Clippers players were unmoved, and Coach Doc Reeves looked deadpan off the court.

Zhang Xin is clear about it, there are cracks inside the Clippers, Griffin is a star cultivated by the Clippers, Paul is airborne, and there is competition between the two, and the relationship between Griffin and Jordan Better.

In fact, the two have no personal grievances. The root cause of the conflict is the difference in personality.Paul, who has a baby face, is actually a competitive person. He is very strict with himself and his teammates.

When Paul came to the Clippers, he brought his attitude to Los Angeles.

The Clippers are a team that seriously lacks a winning culture, which is absolutely unacceptable to Paul.Paul is full of gunpowder in the training and competition of the Clippers. He wants to drive his teammates with his passion and professionalism.

There is no problem with this. The problem is that Paul is a very aggressive player, while Griffin's attitude is relatively negative. He lacks a response to Paul's hot words and deeds. It is really difficult to gain Paul's respect.

Today's events made their relationship worse. From being swept by the Spurs in the 2012 playoffs to the unexpected loss to the Grizzlies in 2013, Paul's mentality has gradually become a little different. He may have noticed that Griffin is not A teammate who is suitable for partnering to compete for the championship.

After the first half of the third quarter, the Warriors had already led by 20 points. In the second half, Mark Jackson sent Zhang Xin and Iguodala, and the dead five reappeared.

The Clippers lost their spirits, and the Warriors took the game away. At the end of the third quarter, the Warriors led the Clippers by 108 points at 78:30. Coach Doug Reeves replaced the main force. The fringe players were killed, the surrender was announced, and the much-anticipated game came to a hasty end.

But the outcome of the game is no longer important. Now the media and fans are concerned about what happened in the Clippers locker room?
The reporters at the press conference after the game were all around Griffin and coach Doug Reeves. Chris Paul was not present. Griffin and Doc Reeves interacted frequently during the press conference, and they seemed to have no problem at all.

When the reporter asked about Griffin deliberately bumping into Doug Rivers, coach Doug Rivers looked very relaxed and said that there was no problem with Griffin at all, it was just a misunderstanding.

Some reporters noticed that Chris Paul was not present. Doug Reeves said lightly that Paul was a little tired and needed to rest, so he let him go back first.

Although the reporter didn't ask any more questions, tomorrow's title already exists.

The reporter turned to interview Mark Jackson and asked Mark Jackson for his views on this matter. Mark Jackson bluntly said that Griffin was a repeat offender who hit the coach.

Mark Jackson said:
"The last game we played here, I was standing on the sidelines and I got hit by Griffin, did you see me standing there? He thought I was standing outside the coach's box, and then there was contact.

I have respect for Griffin, but this is a second-rate move.I let him know I'm from New York, we won't do that.At the end of the day this is respect and we should be more professional. "

Zhang Xin said in an interview: "I think some of Blake's actions today are inappropriate. No matter how you say it, we must respect our coach, but I don't see this in him..."

"Oh, the conflict between me and Bragg today... Bragg dunked my teammate David Lee, he was still talking to David, and when he was buckled himself, he became angry and didn't care about David Lee's safety , directly and vigorously pushed David Lee who was still hanging on the basket, you should know how dangerous that action is, in order to protect David Lee, I went up and pushed Bragg away..."

"As for why the big cap Bragg, it's just an ordinary defense, and it just so happened that I was in place..."

"Dunking Bregg...that was just an accident. You know, when a player breaks through to the basket, if he doesn't end up with a dunk, he might get capped. I don't want to be capped..."

"However, I am a little uncomfortable with Bregg's behavior today. How can he continue to talk to this player after humiliating the other player? I persuaded him that there is no need to show toughness in this way, and then he also said to me. said something that irritated me.

...Those things that happened later, maybe I was a little restless, but...blocking caps and buttons are really cool!No wonder Bragg likes to use it on people so much. "

The reporters burst out laughing, they didn't expect Zhang Xin to be so skinny in the end.

Zhang Xin became serious and adjusted his sitting posture.

"Let me say one last thing. Today's Clippers made me very unhappy. I will fight to the end in every game in the future. As long as I am in the Warriors, the Clippers don't want to win a victory against the Warriors!"

"...the playoffs, haha, let's talk about it when they reach the second round."

The reporters were very excited, a lot of big news has come out today:

First, Griffin bumped into his coach, and it was not the first time that Mark Jackson hit his coach;
Then Zhang Xin said that he would not give up a victory to the Clippers in the future.

As expected of the tsunami brothers, the climax is really one wave after another.

The journalists who consciously made big news felt as if they had been beaten to death. Many press releases were released that night, causing an uproar:

"Clippers infighting: Bregg Griffin intentionally punches head coach Doc Rivers!" ESPN reports;

"Mark Jackson: Bregg Griffin is a repeat offender who bumps into coaches!" Sina Sports reported;
"Zhang Xin: As long as I'm in the Warriors, the Clippers don't want to win a game in the Warriors!" AOL reported;
"Zhang Xin: The button and the big hat are really cool!" Tencent Sports reported;
