Chapter 1943 This Is the Real Rhythm Master

A crushing game that doesn't need to be described too much. The Clippers didn't react in the entire game, and it ended so dryly.

In short, it's enough that Ji Feng is awesome.

Just like O'Neal, the new leader of Ji Feng's praise group, said after the game: "Although Ji Feng did not get his 40+ triple-double, it seems that God wants him to slow down the pace of breaking various records, but this He can only blame his opponent for being too weak. He only resisted for three quarters before replacing the main force. Negro needs to review it. This is the Western Conference semifinals!"

O'Neal seriously sprinkled cumin and chili powder on the devastated Clippers.

Of course, Clippers fans have no time to find trouble with others now, because they are still immersed in this game and can't get out.

After watching the game, they only have one thought in their minds: That's it? Is this a loss?

Yes, this is the NBA. Fans may not know it very well, but professionals all know that when the core tactics that a team relies on for survival are completely broken by the opponent, there is no other way to go except failure. Now There is really not much time left for the Clippers.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the weakness of Negro, the new head coach of the Clippers. He never thought about changing tactics throughout the game, but no matter how he changed it, he couldn't get away from the Lakers' rhythm. The main reason is - Chris Paul .

It can be said that the Clippers succeed with Paul and lose with Paul. Without Paul, the Clippers are nothing. They have nothing to do in the playoffs. But in this game, Paul was defended to 13 points, 5 assists and 7 turnovers. , it would be a pipe dream for the Clippers to win.

So what Su Qun said after the game was very pertinent: "The Clippers need Paul, and they need someone who can stand up and share Paul's pressure."

This is also heartbreaking. The Clippers were not prepared. Didn't Billups also spend a lot of money to get it? They also brought Mo Mo, but wouldn't this be reimbursed for the season? You don't have Mo Mo's nickname. I don’t know, it’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw, let alone a coach with a poor level. What can he do?

And Negro is bigger than others thought at this time. The Lakers' move simply killed him. He was confident before the game because the Clippers were not weak on paper. Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, Butler His strength in the regular season and the first round of the playoffs gave him the illusion that he was capable of giving the Lakers a try.

As a result, he was led into a ditch by the Lakers. Now he understands how weak the Clippers were after Paul was guarded.

There's no way around it. Griffin and DeAndre Jordan both have reputations that outweigh their abilities. Others boast about them, but their respective weaknesses are too obvious. They can't be seen in the regular season, but they are all eliminated in the playoffs. It has been exposed that if they don't change, they are destined not to be super giants, but to be ordinary stars. There is still a big gap between them and the big brothers on the Lakers.

But the game still had to be played. Negro only hoped that Paul would regain his form and study tactics like crazy. He chose to replace Foye, the only three-point shooter in the team, to put pressure on Ji Feng and let Ji Feng Feng didn't dare to double-team Paul as he did in the first game. Butler was good and had outstanding singles ability, but not only did he not have an advantage against Feng last season, but his inability to shoot three-pointers became his biggest weakness. The Lakers' defense was too strong. Butler Even if they rush in, it's difficult to score points, so this move also hopes to create enough space for Paul. This is the only way the Clippers can do now.

"It's up to you! Chris!" Before the second game, Negron held Paul's hand affectionately.

"Don't worry, coach! I won't just give in!"

"Chris~"

"Coach~"

…

"Cough cough cough!!!" Griffin pushed back unconsciously, this atmosphere, suddenly GAYGAY, what a fat thing!

Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, Foye, Mohamed, and Paul, this is the Clippers' starting lineup for the second game. The Lakers are very simple, exactly the same as the first game.

The start was almost the same. This time Paul didn't pass the ball. He directly started a pick-and-roll with Foye. Then Paul broke through and scored first with a pick-up basket.

Paul knew that he had to stand up in this case.

As for the Lakers' first attack, Ji Feng handed it over to Gasol. Gasol hit the long hand with the short hand and turned his back to receive the small hook. This technique may be something Griffin will never learn. After all, the length of his arms is innate. Well.

Griffin was very angry after being invisible and humiliated by Gasol. He also wanted to hit one, but just like the first game, he had no chance at all after the pick-and-roll. The Lakers defended him so well that he couldn't even get into the paint, let alone dunk. It was too easy. He just forced the ball with his back. Ji Feng directly chose to help defend. Griffin was shocked and passed the ball to Foye again.

Foye made a three-pointer!

"YES!" Negro waved his hand excitedly. It would be easy to handle once the ball is scored. Ji Feng should not dare to attack and help defend at will!

Of course, since Foye has a three-pointer, Ji Feng naturally cannot leave at will. This is the defensive principle on the court, and the Clippers also took advantage of the period when Ji Feng was locked and could not move at will. Paul can be regarded as giving full play to his abilities. Ability.

After Paul scored first in the opening game, he then broke through and caused a foul by Bynum. He made two free throws and the Clippers took the lead again. Then he broke through and scored, allowing Jordan to complete a dunk for the first time in two games. The boat also beat the Lakers 6-2.

Although the Lakers later tied the score with the goals of Kobe and Gasol and Ji Feng's steal and assist, it can also be seen that Paul recovered in this game!

The power of the liberated Paul is huge. Throughout the first half, Paul drove the Clippers' rhythm, and the Clippers always led the Lakers in scoring. Although the Lakers' scoring efficiency was also excellent, allowing the Clippers to lead by 4 points, this was not This is already a huge improvement.

46-42, the Clippers led by 4 points at halftime!

"Rhythm master Chris Paul, his sense of rhythm and aggression are really good." Barkley said looking at Paul's half-time data of 12 points, 7 assists and 3 steals.

To take the lead at halftime, Paul was naturally the first to take the lead.

ESPN also said: "If Paul can maintain this rhythm, then they still have a good chance of achieving an upset."

Not mentioning the home and away games, everyone knows that even if the Clippers are at home, Lakers fans have an absolute advantage.

However, in the second half, Ji Feng showed everyone what a true rhythm master is.

After changing positions, Ji Feng directly moved to the point guard position!

Paul: "..."

The Zen master smiled slightly, king against king, opponent against general, let's see who is the real master of rhythm!

Paul felt the pressure, and Ji Feng swung to the No. 1 position. His speed was the only advantage, but it was difficult for him to rely on speed alone, because when Ji Feng, Artest, and Kobe were present at the same time, it would be difficult to experience it personally. It's hard to understand the suffocating defensive pressure at first glance.

Paul could only rely on pick-and-rolls, so he returned to the rhythm at the beginning of the first game...

"What is a rhythm master? This is a rhythm master. You have to play whatever rhythm you are asked to play!" Ji Feng laughed loudly.
