, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the strongest metaphysical coach!
The Knicks don't feel that overwhelming advantage this season. This is inevitable after the lineup is familiar. However, their record has proved that it is extremely difficult to win them. They are still the most powerful contenders for the championship.
On November 27th, the Knicks came to Los Angeles to play against the Clippers.
The Clippers in the summer mainly renewed Paul, of course, there are other additions, a lot of seven or eight, but there is no big pound, after all, it is not easy to win star players.
One of them is to add outside shooters like Redick and Dudley. In addition, they don't have Jordan, and they supplement the inside every season. There are blue-collar types and three-pointers that can be pulled out, but they are not particularly powerful.
How to put it, the current Clippers may be worse than the original history, but not much worse.
After becoming the Clippers coach, Rivers did not continue to take the defensive path, and Jordan will not be very useful.
Rivers knows the Knicks very well, and now he is in the West, he still wants to beat them.
The Clippers don't have the kind of star with particularly strong scoring ability, but Paul is obviously better than Rondo. While activating his teammates, his personal offensive power is also online, not top but not bad.
So at the beginning of the game, the Clippers started from Paul's point and launched a targeted attack.
The Clippers did have a good start. They became more troublesome after Redick. It's not that Redick is very powerful, but that Paul can play this kind of shooter.
The Knicks actually have an advantage inside, but they don't have the inside line to play with the ball. This advantage can't be fully utilized. Of course, Qi Li just sighed slightly. The Knicks' current lineup is perfect compared to other teams.
Besides, there is no such inside line in the league now, and Vucevic is just average, otherwise he will not be sent away.
The two sides played in the first quarter inextricably, and the Clippers also had people on the bench. Crawford and Collison were both good, and veterans like Jamison also broke out occasionally.
However, after all, the Clippers still have to rely on role players to play against the Knicks. Unlike the Knicks team, which can play, the stars can stand up and reap the game when the game is not good.
In the second quarter, the efficiency of both sides dropped a little. At this time, Klay and Leonard stood up on the Knicks side, and Griffin on the Clippers side had no room, but Paul stood up.
It's just that Paul is not the top in this area, so the Knicks still dominate.
But the Knicks didn't find a chance to open the score. After Crawford stayed more on the court, it did give the Clippers a lot of help.
In the first half, the two sides were equal, and Qi Li was able to find out that even if there are many stars on the team, it is difficult to kill each other as soon as they come up. It may be that the Knicks players are considered stable, or the tactics of the equal Focus on stability.
However, the intensity must be increased in the second half, which is also Qi Li's favorite method.
Keep an eye on the three-point line and the two core players of the opponent, and the game will naturally be under control.
In the third quarter, the Clippers also worked harder, Paul and Griffin are getting closer, but the Knicks are also very clear about the characteristics of the two, under targeted defense, the efficiency of the two is not high.
Although the Clippers have been developing in the offensive direction, Rivers still knows the Knicks very well. This defense is still very targeted, so the Knicks offense is also very smooth.
However, Curry broke out again in this quarter. The Knicks' several stars have taken turns to explode. It is relatively stable, while the explosion is relatively difficult. After all, the feel needs to be cultivated by the ball.
But if several strong points really break out at the same time, the game will definitely be over, because no one can stop it.
The two sides have to divide the victory and defeat until the last quarter. The Clippers began various restrictions on Curry, and even partial double-teaming, also restricted Curry's play.
However, the Knicks team played well, after all, Curry is not a pure attacker, he also has organizational skills.
Instead, it was on the Clippers side, where Paul and Griffin were a little bit helpless.
This is also the old problem of the two, not so powerful at the critical moment, Paul is still suitable for the kind of lethal player to partner, he and Griffin are not as good as everyone thinks.
The Knicks were in the lead, but Crawford stepped forward at this time.
Crawford feels really hard to defend when it comes to the touch. The Knicks now often encounter former players against them.
To a certain extent, Crawford is indeed the most troublesome type. If it were not for age, Qi Li would not send people away like that.
Under Crawford's unreasonable goal, the scores of the two teams began to approach again.
When the time came to the last few minutes, the efficiency of both sides was not high. The Knicks only led by three points, and the entire arena was full of tension.
Crawford hit a two-pointer in singles, but then Ibaka on the Knicks completed a dunk.
Sometimes it’s weird on the court, when neither team scores, both teams will score as soon as they score.
At this time, it is necessary to test the mental quality of the players. Without a big heart, it is easy to lose.
The Knicks' players are pretty good in this regard, and with reason, he will make the players perform better in the last minute.
After the two teams played several irons in a row, Griffin took the lead and he made a foul against Leonard.
However, he made only one of his two free throws, but then Leonard missed a shot and Crawford counterattacked.
The two sides were evenly divided, and Qi Li asked for a timeout, but at this time he had not used the doom blow.
It is still the usual pick-and-roll tactic, this time the ball will be controlled by Curry.
After Leonard came over for the pick and roll, the Clippers' two defensive players pounced on Curry, and then Griffin came to supplement Leonard.
They almost blocked Curry, but Curry still passed the ball.
Ibaka made a mid-range hit after catching the ball ~EbookFREE.me~The Clippers players were a little upset.
Ibaka's performance here is mainly on the defensive end, and did not expect to score a key 4 points at the last moment.
Time was running out at this time, and Qi Li decisively used the doom blow.
The Clippers changed all the attackers, and the ball passed to Collison's hand and made a mistake.
After Curry steals, the man rushes towards no one's place, and the Clippers succeeded in fouling after a few seconds.
Curry made two free throws, and the suspense of the game is running out.
In the next less than 20 seconds, the Clippers blocked a three-pointer, and as a result, they did not find a chance to make a shot. After Redick missed the shot, the ball bounced directly outside.
The Clippers grabbed offensive rebounds, but they were a bit messy. After receiving the ball, Paul stepped on the three-point line and hit a two-pointer.
However, there was no time at this time, the Knicks announced the end after the ball, the Clippers lost.
