Chapter 471: Ten Years
In fact, the Clippers also know why the media wind has changed like this, of course, some people don't want them to win again, but they can't do anything about it, so they can only disgust the Clippers without pain. If the Spurs did the right thing, why was they fined $100,000 by the league?
Ji Guo thought shamefully that these media uniformly gave them eye medicine during this time period, which must be a good thing done by several teams that are about to be surpassed by them, the Mavericks, Lakers, Bulls, and Celtics must be the first evil, but this little trick is of no use to the Clippers, just like facing the small waves blown by the aircraft carrier, no one can stop them from breaking the record.
The Jazz's competitiveness has declined this season, mainly due to injuries to the team's two cores. Williams has only played in 61 games this season due to injury, but he still averaged a double-double of 19.4 points and 10.7 assists per game, and is the team's leading scorer and assists.
Carlos. Boozer is even worse than Delon, who has only played in 37 games in total, and although he is averaging a double-double of 16.2 points and 10.4 rebounds per game, the off-court factors of the "anti-bone man" have a far greater impact on the team than on the court.
The Jazz have only 44 wins this season, the worst in the last three seasons, and if it weren't for their Devils' home court, they would have struggled to even break into the top 10.
The only good news for Utah is that Millsap, who played as the main power forward during Boozer's injury, was not picked on in any way, averaging 13.5 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. There's no doubt that the 23-year-old Millsap represents the future of the Jazz.
The regular season has really come to an end, and the top eight in the West are 1 Clippers (66-14), 2 Spurs (60-20), 3 Lakers (55-25), 4 Trail Blazers (49-32), 5 Rockets (50-30), 6 Hornets (47-33), 7 Mavericks (43-37), 8 Jazz (42-38), and 9 Thunder (42-38).
Eastern Conference standings - 1 Cleveland Cavaliers (62-18), 2 Boston Celtics (58-22), 3 Orlando Magic (57-23), 4 Atlanta Hawks (43-37), 5 Miami Heat (40-40), 6 Philadelphia 76ers (39-44), 7 Chicago Bulls (39-41), 8 New York Knicks (39-41)
The suspense in the West remains, and the Thunder will face the Trail Blazers and Clippers in their final two games. The Dallas are not safe either, and they will have to deal with the Cavaliers and Rockets in the last two games, and if they don't get it right, they will lose in a row. The Jazz are even worse, they have to deal with the Clippers and Lakers, the three teams competing for the last spot in the playoffs, the last two games are deadly games, and who will come out of the encirclement in the end, no one can say until the last minute.
There is no suspense in the East, the Knicks are three wins ahead of the ninth-place Pistons, and have locked the playoffs in advance, the suspense is whether they can kill the 76ers and the Bulls, the Cavaliers and Celtics are undoubtedly more difficult to deal with than the Magic, and if the Knicks can rush to sixth, there may be a chance to enter the second round.
The game in Salt Lake City is not easy to play, especially since the Jazz have not yet confirmed to enter the playoffs, they have the same record as the Thunder, and they are only ranked eighth because of the superior head-to-head record, if this game is lost to the Clippers, the Jazz will be kicked out of the playoffs if they don't do well, which is too tragic.
Yao Ming is the happiest person, although the Rockets will definitely not be able to meet the Jazz this year, but seeing the bad luck of the guy he hates the most, the little giant is naturally extremely happy, and made a special call before the game to encourage the two brothers to kill Boozer.
The game was intense from the start, with both teams having a reason to win, and every goal was a matter of conceit.
Old Dunleavy has been hesitating for the past few days, the playoffs are about to start, and they are still playing with their lives, in case it is really like those guys who secretly curse them say, so there are three long and two short, then I really don't know if it is worth it or not.
However, the will of the players is very important, the Clippers players want to win these two games, especially Ji Guoshi shouted 68 wins all day long, and the old Dunleavy can only make up his mind to win these two games, so he even does not hesitate to let the two brothers play for more than 40 minutes, otherwise the Clippers are not absolutely sure to win the Jazz on the road.
The Clippers have been falling behind in the first half today, although the anti-bone boy has returned to the essence of the glass man again this year, but at the critical moment, the Jazz also burst out of their full potential, the blocking and dismantling of the two brothers made the two brothers a little overwhelmed, coupled with the suffocating home atmosphere of the energy court, the Clippers did not feel good today, with a halftime score of 46:50, 4 points behind the Jazz.
In the second half, Ji Guoqiu became the key to breaking the game, Oku played the number of jù that he should have in the contract year this year, which was much better than last season's table, but this guy's defensive ability has declined greatly, not to mention that he is not good at defending a smart and fast center like Ji Guoqiu, and today he can only follow the giant panda like a bear.
In the third quarter, Ji Guoqiu cut down a super table of 12 points in a single quarter and led the Clippers to overtake the score.
In the fourth quarter, the Jazz launched a counterattack, but the elder Dunleavy barely let the two brothers rest, and the Clippers relied on solid interior defense to keep the Jazz from playing a wave of high injuries, and the scores of the two teams have been seesawing within five points. The game didn't change until the last three minutes, the Jazz players had problems with their bodies, and the muscular team had poor staying power, and the two brothers played almost the whole game today, but they couldn't see that the two of them had any physical weakness, but the Jazz had two inside lines and a fat Delon. Williams couldn't stand it in the final moments, and the Jazz missed several offensive shots, and the Clippers pulled away in one fell swoop, winning the regular season that was more like a playoff game.
The final score was 98:94, and the Clippers did not score more than 100, which shows that the Jazz's defense has not been lost, but now whether they can enter the playoffs and make their defense have a place is a big question mark.
Ji Guoqiu scored 30 points, 23 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 blocks, Ji Guoqiu scored 22 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks, and the two brothers teamed up to score 52 points, 34 rebounds and 9 blocks.
"These two little bastards still want to defend their titles, damn it!" This is the heartfelt cry of most of the strong teams.
The Clippers struggled to claim their 67th win of the season from Salt Lake City, which is already on par with the Mavericks' record in '07, and they have finally moved up to 10th overall in NBA history. Next, a win against the last opponent, the Oklahoma City Thunder, will officially become the No. 6 all-time Cunzài, and will move up three rankings at once.
On the same day, the Thunder won on the road against the Portland Trail Blazers, and the Jazz were really squeezed out of the eighth place, and the Mavericks were also skinned by the Cavaliers on their home court, and the Thunder have a chance to rush to sixth place before the start of the playoffs, provided they defeat the last enemy, the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Los Angeles media used the most succinct report to describe the opponent that the Clippers are likely to face in the playoffs, that is, the Thunder.
Thunder's biggest strength: well-developed limbs, outside line.
Thunder's biggest disadvantage: simple mind, inside line.
In the last game of the season, the elder Dunleavy actually didn't care too much, the Thunder's interior line was not much better than the Knicks, just half a pound. They are only superior on the outside, but it is basically impossible to expect to beat the Clippers on the outside, and the Knicks and Lakers, who are stronger than them, have already set an example.
In this game, the Thunder fully proved that the last time they were able to beat the Clippers, it was completely shit luck, and it must not be taken as evidence that they are capable of beating the Clippers.
The Clippers didn't give the Thunder the slightest chance today, leading the young Thunder by 18 points at home in the first half. Durant, who scored 48 points in the last meeting, scored a measly five points in the first half under the Clippers' playoff-level defense. As for Artest, under the conscious defense of the Clippers, only an even more pitiful 2 points were scored in the half.
Raheem Sterling sat in the front row to watch the game today, and this old immortal finally did not pick the door to the extreme, and today specially prepared 20,000 Clippers jerseys marked with the word "68" on each bench on the court, creating a playoff unique home atmosphere.
In a sea of scorching white across the court, the Clippers made persistent efforts in the second half and did not give the young Thunder half a chance. If the last big game against Jazz was a game for the giant pandas, today's big win over the Thunder is a performance for the little fox.
The Clippers already led the Thunder by 25 points after three quarters, and such a point difference made Coach Brewer give up resistance, and Ming Jin withdrew and announced his surrender.
With a final score of 112-90, the Clippers defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder at home and got their 68th regular season victory, and since then they have surpassed the Mavericks in '07, the Lakers in the millennium and the Bulls in '93 to become the sixth-best team in regular season history.
The Clippers can now puff out their chests and proudly declare that they are no longer hillbillies without a glorious history, and that they have climbed to a position that many can only look up to, led by two animals.
Now there is still a question, that is, the Clippers have achieved such an amazing record, will the two brothers get the MVP because of this? It's a question worth exploring, because the Mavericks' Nowitzki won the regular season MVP with the undisputed table after helping the team win 67 wins, becoming the first European-born international player to win the NBA regular season MVP.
On April 16, the NBA2008-2099 season officially ended, and the Los Angeles Clippers became the biggest winner of the regular season with a 68-14 record.

"The best of the 21st century - Clippers!"
Every season is a new piece of history, and history will always be yellowed, and certain figures in history will pass away one day, but they are destined to be remembered for generations to come. Now let's remember April 16, 2009, when the Clippers' animal duo was invincible and capable of anything this season, creating a dream season that Clippers fans could not have imagined on their own. Whether in terms of roster structure or tactical system, this season's Clippers team is enough to cross time and space and perform a Guan Gong battle against Qin Qiong with any great team in the history of the league.
However, there are talented people in the country, no dynasty can be immortal, everything is like this, when one side is too powerful, big enough to see the mountains for an hour, it will be attacked by a group.
We will wait and see how long the Clippers, the invincible Titanic, will be able to sail.
"Uncle Draft!" The Clipper was broken up and down by the New York Times, and the front was obviously good, but how did it look like a curse in the back?
The Los Angeles Times is not as malicious as the New York Times, and directly uses the "Titanic" as a metaphor for the Clippers, which is simply a fair curse, and Clippers fans have made countless phone calls to protest the author of the report.

"Ten years!"
The NBA has had so many unforgettable moments in the past decade that fans should remember. Whenever I recall these moments, it is as if I am recalling those lost youths. Ten years have passed in a hurry, and many of the things of ten years ago have been blurred and forgotten, but there are so many heart-pounding moments in the NBA that we will never forget.
In the 1999-2000 season, a new era arrived, the first championship of the OK group, and the dynasty overture was played.
The 2000-2001 season was the undisputed "Iverson year", although the eventual winners were OK and the Lakers, although they only lost one game in the entire playoffs.
In the 2001-2002 season, the best king played the best basketball at the time, one or two passes like a cloud, a flash of running, like a beautiful textbook, such an artistic basketball, but in the end it was destroyed under the referee's whistle.
In the 2002-2003 season, considered the most ugly Spurs of the time, stepped on the remains of the Lakers and began their tradition of winning championships every odd-numbered year.
In the 2003-2004 season, the Lakers' Big Four was unprecedented, and NBA history will remember this Lakers team, but in a tone of regret and irony, a superstar aircraft carrier with four basketball Hall of Fame stars finally ran aground in front of the civilian Pistons.
In the 2004-2005 season, the strongest Pacers of all time were born, and instead of saving their strongest moment in the Finals, they chose Auburn Hills Palace.
In the 2005-2006 season, there were many major events that can be remembered in this season, among which the "Heat Blaze" and the "81-point miracle night" staged by Staples will forever remain in the hearts of fans.
In the 2006-2007 season, the most embarrassing MVP ceremony, the most weighty black eight, the most tragic MVP!
In the 2007-2008 season, Animal World was launched.
2008-2009 season, Animal World Season 2 (to be continued) R1152
