Standing pretty old

Chapter 862 Season ends, unbeaten at home

With 67 wins and 3 losses, the Los Angeles Clippers have 52 more wins than the 18 wins and 15 losses of the San Antonio Spurs, who are ranked second in the Western Conference and second in the league.

There are only the last 12 game days left in the regular season, that is to say, before the Clippers achieved 37 consecutive victories, they locked in the top spot in the regular season of the 12-13 season in advance.

Crazy season, crazy Los Angeles Clippers!

Before the start of the 12-13 season, the Clippers were also the team that fans expected, but no one would have guessed that they would suddenly exert their strength in the middle and late stages, rewriting the league's longest streak again. win record.

曾经湖人的33连胜是那么高不可攀，可09-10赛季、12-13赛季，已经连续有两支球队——老鹰和快船打破了这个纪录。

The same point is that the leaders of these two teams are both Kafu Ruan.

The Heat actually played well during this period. Under the leadership of James, the Miamis played a wave of offensive frenzy with 23 consecutive victories.

But as the old saying goes, no one cares about No.2.

Under the unstoppable performance of the Los Angeles Clippers, no one will care how the Heat, which has played its second longest winning streak this season, is doing.

The publicity resources of the media are also limited. Even if they want to praise a hero of the United States, they have to kneel down and sing conquest and praise the glorious journey of the Clippers in the face of the terrifying achievements of the Bulls.

The eyes of the fans are discerning. Even though big media such as ESPN distributed the 37 wins to CP3 and Kawaii, most of the senior fans still leave various messages on the Internet, proving that the bull is the fastest. The soul of the ship.

TNT, which has always liked to sing against ESPN, even sarcastically said: "Everyone knows that the Chinese rule the NBA, but there are always some people who like to stand up and use various reasons to deny all this to maintain their poor self-esteem."

According to Political Commissar Jin of the Bureau of War and Ignorance: "Americans were also very good at making jokes in the past, if you tease him a few words, he won't get angry.

But it doesn't work now, we are stronger, so they become more and more sensitive, just joking around, he will be anxious with you! "

Why did Nash and Nowitzki suffer so much criticism?

It's not because they are not Americans, but they won the regular season MVP.

In fact, being as strong as a ox is always subject to various doubts.

It's no wonder that it doesn't matter if you play well, but you can still get an Oscar queen and maintain a relationship with two women at the same time.

If you think about the reputation of a boss who doesn't know the beauty of his wife among the dicks, you can see that it is normal.

Men, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign are actually the same.

Live for X, die for X, and live for X all your life.

To put it mildly, Freud once said: "Sex is the source of everything!"

The Clippers, who have secured the top spot in the regular season, still have 12 games to play. Even if the next schedule is not easy, they can deal with it calmly.

Once the desire to win is slightly relaxed, it will immediately affect the team's record.

After the end of the game against the Nets, the Clippers will have a wave of four straight away.

The opponents are the Dallas Mavericks, New Orleans Hornets, San Antonio Spurs, and Houston Rockets. The Texas package also includes a combination of grilled wings.

In the first game against the Mavericks, the Clippers encountered big trouble.

Mike James and Dirk Nowitzki ushered in an explosion rashly, and after a wave of unreasonable shootings, they quickly opened the score to double digits.

Fortunately, Mike James performed well on the offensive end, but he couldn't limit Paul's performance on the defensive end. With Paul's brave performance in the first quarter, the Clippers finally maintained the score gap at the number of players.

In the second quarter, Ruan Erniu suffered the worst quarter of the season. He made 5 of 0 shots in a single quarter, but was blocked by Dirk Nowitzki, who was not a top defensive player.

To be honest, Erniu did not do well on both ends of the offense and defense tonight. This is probably because they have a record of 37 consecutive victories and the league's first place in their hands. The MVP is already within reach, so their mentality is too relaxed.

Thibodeau was also not good at reprimanding the team's head coach loudly, but it turned out that the team leader only played for 5 minutes in the second quarter.

Nowitzki became more and more difficult to deal with without the defense of the two bulls. Golden Rooster's independent shots fell into the net bag again and again. By the second half of the third quarter, the score of the two teams had stretched to more than 15 points.

In the final quarter, the Clippers still performed poorly. Paul scored 33+10 in this game, and he has done his best, but his teammates are really not strong.

Bulls scored only 22 points and 11 rebounds in this game, and their shooting percentage dropped to 41%. It was blown away by Nowitzki, who scored 36 points in this game.

More importantly, the Mavericks are blooming more, Mike * James, OJ * Mayo, Darren * Collison, Vince * Carter have played well.

This season, the Mavericks' current record is only 34 wins and 36 losses. In the highly competitive Western District, this result can basically announce their farewell to the playoffs.

But the background of the top three in Texas still allowed them to defeat the mighty Los Angeles Clippers.

When Ruan Erniu attended the press conference with Paul after the game, he also took the initiative to take responsibility and said: "The responsibility for the loss lies with me. It is somewhat regrettable for us to end the 37-game winning streak, but it is not a bad thing for us. We You can focus more on the following regular season and playoffs."

Focusing on the key points, the Clippers' attention has been biased towards the playoffs!

Losing to the Mavericks is not a big deal for the Clippers. In the next away game in New Orleans, they will eat grilled wings.

If the Dallasites are entangled in how to reorganize the team again next season, then the New Orleans are thinking about how to compete for the No. [-] pick again.

Even if the Clippers lack fighting spirit, it will be difficult to lose to the current Hornets.

After Ruan Erniu's poor performance in the last game, he quickly recovered, and used a crazy output of 45+30 to teach Brother Nongmei to be a man.

The No. 1 pick may become a top player in the league in the future, but at this stage he can only slowly enjoy the No.[-] crit in the league.

After successfully handling the Hornets, the Clippers still have two Texas away games to play.

They are the Spurs, who have not won the Clippers this season, and the Houston Rockets, who want to compete with the Lakers and Jazz for a playoff spot.

The Clippers, who just won the Hornets, did not adjust their state in time.

At the end of the season, they finally experienced their first losing streak of the season, losing consecutively in Texas to the revenge-minded Spurs and the Rockets sprinting for the playoffs.

In addition to the loss to the Mavericks, the Clippers encountered Waterloo in Texas during their four-game streak, and they didn't even win a game.

Fortunately, at this time, no one will jump out to question the dominance of the Clippers. After all, no matter how much they lose, this team has won the league's top spot in advance, so the Clippers must be the best player in the league this season. Team.

After experiencing a losing streak, the remaining opponents of the Clippers are eager to try. Beating a 37-game winning streak team is not an honor that can be obtained every season. If you don’t take advantage of the situation and win a few games at this time, how can you brag in the future?

The Clippers also understand the reason why they can't go on. It doesn't matter if they lose a few games. If they lose the game and lose their mentality, it will blow up completely.

Ruan Erniu cooperated with the assistant teaching team to hold an emergency team meeting. After analyzing the situation, Ruan Erniu proposed to take every opponent seriously.

It's not enough to just say it, both individuals and the team need a specific goal to spur themselves.

Er Niu looked at the schedule, and after careful analysis, said: "We have achieved an unprecedented 37 consecutive victories, so we might as well achieve another unprecedented goal this season-unbeaten at home this season!"

"Ooh!"

Brute's speech made many Clippers players exclaim!
Suddenly looking back, the Los Angeles Clippers have not lost a home game in the past 12 games in the 13-74 season.

After losing to the Rockets, they will soon usher in the last sweet journey of the season-four consecutive masters.

This time the opponents are the Grizzlies, Suns, Lakers, and Timberwolves.

The Grizzlies basically have nothing to ask for this season. They are ranked fourth or fifth in the West, which is far from sixth, seventh, and eighth, but the teams that want to chase the top three are unable to catch up.

The Suns signed for the No. [-] pick this season, and the Timberwolves also have no hope of advancing to the playoffs.

After counting and counting, the only team that really needs to die is the Los Angeles Lakers, because the Lakers, which has gathered F4, will also compete with the Rockets and Jazz at the end of the season for a playoff spot.

Jerry Buss finally passed away from cancer in February 13. Needless to say his achievements, the glory of Zijin is inseparable from the efforts of old Buss, but he obviously did not arrange properly on the issue of heirs.

The season hasn't finished yet, and countless people have begun to question Jim Buss. Many media even directly call him a prodigal son. It is impossible for the Lakers to be revived under his hands.

F4 looks very good, but in fact one failed to integrate into the system.

D'Antoni is also a clever woman who can't cook without rice. The small ball system he is best at has no room for this Lakers.

If you leave aside the changes on the offensive end, the Lakers' defensive system is actually still the old one left by Mike Brown.

The Grizzlies and Suns really failed to stop the Clippers. The Clippers, who won two consecutive victories at home, ushered in their city rivals, the Los Angeles Lakers.

In the Lakers F4, Nash is absent due to injury, and Kobe will lead the team to make the final fight for the playoffs.

The two sides have entered a playoff-level confrontation from the very beginning.

Kawhi was arranged to stare directly at Kobe from the moment the referee whistled, trying to use all means to contain Kobe's performance.

客观来说，科比在12-13赛季进攻端的表现要由于11-12赛季，赛季场均命中率由43%提升到了46.3%。

The efficiency of the offensive end has improved, but the efficiency of the defensive end has declined more seriously.

When the pick-up team attracted most of the defensive attention, Kawaii, whether it was the old Metta World Peace in singles, or the black mamba, did not have much pressure.

It is not surprising that the sparks completely exploded Jordan on the offensive end, but it is somewhat incredible that Jordan can handle Howard with 13 rebounds in a single game.

Yes, the Sparks only got 4 rebounds in this game.

D'Antoni does have a way of training the offense. The Lakers have improved on the offensive end, and it is indeed thanks to him, but judging from the current defensive attitude of the Lakers, even if they reach the playoffs, they will never go further. far possible.

The Clippers, who have set small goals for themselves, will not give the Lakers too many opportunities. As Ruan Erniu took the lead in increasing the defensive intensity, the game began to quickly shift to the Clippers' side.

The Clippers played a suffocating defense in the third quarter, leading the score by 20 points in a wave.

Kobe scored 12 points in the final quarter in an attempt to lead the team to a final counterattack, but in the end he lost the game due to too many holes in the early stage.

95:119, after the Clippers successfully won this home game, as long as they win the Timberwolves in the last home game of the four consecutive owners, and win the Portland Trail Blazers in the last home game at the end of the season, it will become the first team in NBA history. The first team to go unbeaten at home in a season.

The Timberwolves, who had no hope of advancing to the playoffs, lasted a quarter of the game and were blown away. The Clippers won four consecutive home games, and they were only one step away from their small goal.

In the next two away games, the Clippers played carelessly,

The Hornets are naturally still delivering food, but in back-to-back away games against the Grizzlies, the Memphis people, who wanted to go further in the playoffs, successfully sniped the Clippers and became one of the few in this season, beating the record of 37 wins. one of the player's teams.

However, the Clippers who lost this game did not mean much frustration. They had already set their sights on the next home game against the Trail Blazers.

The Clippers, who have lost back-to-back, are full of confidence, and the Portland Trail Blazers, who don't want to be the background board, agree that they are unwilling to catch it without a fight.

If the Clippers win the season unbeaten at home, after a few years, most fans will forget the previous 40 confrontations, and take out the 41st opponent defeated by the Clippers to criticize.

But the Blazers, who lost their playoff qualification early, really have no possibility of fighting the Clippers to death.

Their main power forward Aldridge was unable to play due to injury, and it was impossible for a rookie Lillard to stop the Clippers.

Even Lillard has basically booked the best rookie of the 12-13 season.

As the first candidate for ROY, Lillard repeatedly stated before the game that they will work hard to play every game, even if the opponent is the Los Angeles Clippers, who have won 37 consecutive victories.

Er Niu smiled and said: "I don't think the Blazers have any chance, but I wish Damian wins ROY!"

The progress of the game also roughly verified Erniu's rhetoric. After two minutes in the first quarter, the Blazers never got a chance to lead again.

It is said that Adelaide has never won the second bull in the matchup, but there is really no Aldridge, and the Blazers can't find a player who can stop the bull.

Ruan Erniu scored 55 points and 31 rebounds in a super double-double, leading the team to a 77:135 victory over the opponent. The 58-point difference is also the largest single-game regular-season difference this season.

In this way, after the Los Angeles Clippers won the longest 37-game winning streak and the fastest lock to the league's top record, they completed an unprecedented unbeaten season at home.

After that, there was another away game where the Clippers sent all the substitutes. As a result, the Los Angeles people who let themselves go lost to the Kings.

With 74 wins and 8 losses, the Los Angeles Clippers have ended their 12-13 regular season journey. Their next goal is clear: to defend the championship!
