On March 18, the Clippers narrowly defeated the Warriors away, Ji Guoqiu got the 9th triple-double of the season, and now whether Brother Panda can get 10 triple-doubles has become the focus of fans' attention.

On March 19, the Clippers lost back-to-back games to the Washington Wizards at home, in this game, the Clippers were limited by physical problems, the whole team did not feel good, the twin brothers added together and only scored 25 points, and the others failed to stand up, and the Clippers lost for the 12th game of the season.

On March 21, the Clippers began a continuous road trip to the East, the first game, facing the declining Motor City, the Clippers won a hearty victory on the road, 134:102 defeated the Detroit Pistons by 32 points, and indirectly assisted the New York Knicks to sit in the eighth place in the East.

On March 23, the Clippers moved to Toronto to play against the Raptors, and the two brothers scored 58 points and 31 rebounds at the Canadian Aviation Center Coliseum, where the twins were painted in the stadium, leading the Clippers to a big win over the Toronto Raptors.

On March 24, the Clippers continued their road trip to the East, but this time their opponent was the Boston Celtics, and they met the Big Three on the road back-to-back, and the Clippers once again lost on the road, they lost in the stalemate in the fourth quarter, and Ji Guoyi's final kill did not hit, and the Clippers won their thirteenth loss of the season.

After losing this game, Clippers fans were greatly saddened, and a 13-loss meant that they could not get 70+ wins. But there is no way, modern basketball is like this, it is basically impossible to have a dominant team like the Bulls dynasty back then, and if you want to get another 70 wins, this difficulty is not inferior to getting 81 points once. However, the Clippers have a chance in the future, and they have twin brothers, so they have the possibility of 70 wins. At the very least, 60 wins this season is not going to run, which is an honor that the Clippers have never achieved.

"It doesn't matter, we didn't have 70 wins, but we can win as many games as we can, and since 2000, only two teams have had a regular season record of more than 65 wins, and they're the Celtics last year and the Lakers at Millennium. We have a chance to be the third team to achieve 65+ wins in a single season this season, and we have a chance to be the team with the best record in the 21st century. "Dunleavy Sr. was in the dressing room immediately after the defeat against Celtic, and they certainly won't be discouraged by back-to-back defeats on the road, they still have a lot of tasks to do, such as the real goal of 65+ wins.

Ji Guoyi was the first to jump out to support his coach, and this guy looked like he had done his homework, and he directly pointed out the goal that the team should strive for - "As long as we get 67 wins, we can become the top 10 teams in the entire NBA history, and if we can win +1 again, we can be ranked in the top five." The little fox, a Virgo attribute, flares up again and shouts excitedly: "Guys, think about it, as long as we continue to maintain the win rate this season, it will not be difficult to achieve 60+ wins, and then we can become the best five teams in history!" ”

Not to mention the Clippers players, who are really itched by the pie drawn by the old Dunleavy and the little fox, how can an athlete not desire honor? Even those bad elements who are greedy for money, they like to win rather than lose, and being a member of the honor book left in history is certainly a goal worth bloodshed!

On March 26, the Clippers will play against the New York Knicks who have undergone N big trades this time, these guys with a lot of stupid money have been very comfortable recently, and they are firmly in the eighth place in the East, two and a half wins ahead of the ninth Pistons, and one win behind the seventh Bulls, it seems that they still have a chance to go one step further at the end of the regular season, after all, the Knicks' next schedule is not difficult, with their competitive state after the All-Star break, they can win at least half of the games. Today's game against the Los Angeles Clippers is the most difficult game for the Knicks, and even though the Clippers have lost four games in March, they are still the top in the league, three wins ahead of the Cavaliers.

The Clippers are a bit unstable in the league's first place right now, and the Cavaliers are no worse than the Clippers this season. In addition to the Cavaliers, the Spurs have also maintained a three- or four-game gap with the Clippers, and if the Clippers lose a few games in a row if they are not careful, they will fall to third or even further back in the blink of an eye.

The New York media has been hyping up the Knicks now having two guns in the backcourt and attacking the power of the league

The title of "Twin Guns", while a bit of a braggart, Iverson and Maddie have both left their peak, but on some nights, the two can indeed contribute more than 60 points.

The Knicks have gone through countless trades this season, and the team lineup naturally cannot be selected according to the coach's wishes. Dolan doesn't have any record requirements for the mustaches, and they already plan to rebuild the team in a few years. In particular, the mustache promised the new owner that he would definitely seduce at least one of Nash and Stoudemire, which gave D'Antoni a lot of power in the Knicks and could have a certain say in the trade.

That's right, D'Antoni came here with the title of best coach, and this is one of the most famous periods in which most fans think that if it weren't for the bad luck of '06, he might have won the championship.

At the pre-game press conference, Ji Guoyan rarely did not shoot at the enemy, because the two tumors of the Knicks are the second of his idols, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with being alone, which NBA star is not alone?

"None of us expected that the Knicks would have such a good record in the second half of the season, we will not despise each other, this is their home court, and their two cores, one once staged a miracle of 35 seconds and 13 minutes, and the other single-handedly entered the Finals, both of which deserve our respect. Aside from the fact that the hit rate is a bit low, I don't think they have any weaknesses. After Ji Guozhi finished speaking, he really wanted to give himself a mouth, but it was not black?

The reporters in New York were so happy to hear that it was rare for them to be able to say these words from the mouth of this dead fox. This guy is a well-known poisonous snake, and he has no mercy on Kobe Bryant and James, so he is absolutely flattered to be praised by him, and New York reporters feel satisfied!

But this guy can't change his dog to eat, and he ran away as he spoke, and the New York reporters suddenly had a feeling of being played, the dead fox wasn't playing monkey, right?

In the locker room before the game, Dunleavy Sr. had already guessed the Knicks' starting lineup, which was too easy to guess, and D'Antoni had completely established his eight-man rotation after the All-Star break. If it weren't for the age of their two backcourt cores and the potential for injuries, I'm afraid it wouldn't be an eight-man rotation, but D'Antoni's best seven-man rotation.

Mustache likes to use all-rounders, and it's hard to get a chance from a player who can't play two positions. Of course, you have to be able to run, it doesn't matter if you don't defend well, you can't forgive if you don't attack well. After the Knicks were traded, the interior became an obvious weakness, and the starting interior combination was Al Brown. Harrington and Ronnie. Turyaf. Poor Tim. After Thomas was traded by the Clippers, he was traded to the Warriors by the Knicks. Another former Clippers player, Mobley, was discharged from the season after being diagnosed with heart swelling by the Knicks.

Knicks starting lineup: Allen. Iverson, Tracy. McGrady, Wilson. Chandler, Al. Harrington, Ronnie. Turyaf.

The enemy is weak on the inside, and the Clippers' tactics are, of course, the main inside, which is exactly what they are good at. Dunleavy Sr. is not worried that the Knicks' fast break will sink the Clippers, they are not that fast, Maddie and Iverson give people a fast feeling, that's because they have a good rhythm, purely in terms of speed, the Knicks are actually not fast. But that rhythm is actually more troublesome, and some of the athleticism of the two has been lost, but the superstar feeling is still there, and he can get a basketball into the basket with a single move.

The Clippers won the scramble and went on the first offense, and Ji Guoqiu scored two points from Turiav on the inside.

The Knicks attacked, Iverson quickly advanced to the front court with the ball, and tried to break through in the face of Billups, and after finding that there was no chance, the answer quickly handed the basketball to Maddy.

This is the Knicks' habitual style of play, Iverson quickly dribbs to the front court first, has a chance to break through and launch an offense, and hands over the basketball to Maddie if he doesn't have a chance, and Soft McIe organizes it, and Tracey is the real organizational core of the Knicks. Iverson will start running with the help of his teammates' positioning cover at this time, and once he runs out of an open position or a misplaced one-on-one opportunity, Maddy's top passing vision can easily pass the basketball over and let Iverson play alone.

The Knicks created a misplaced opportunity on this offense, Iverson misplaced Afralo, and Maddy's pass came to Iverson just right, and the answer was two cross-step shots, and a direct mid-range shot helped the team score two points.

D'Antoni came to New York, and it was not impossible to be flexible, the Knicks' offensive end was mainly to create a misplaced single opportunity for the two backcourt stars, and they would play fast break when they had the opportunity, but they would not fall into positional battles as much as possible, because their interior line basically did not have the ability to attack, and they must play a quick offensive and defensive transition, and launch an attack while the opponent's foothold was not stable, and strive to end the battle before the opponent's formation was arranged.

It's certain to be hasty to play like this, but Maddy's excellent organizational skills and the two former superstars are still top-level singles, and once the Knicks play the rhythm, the average team is really difficult to handle. If these two get together three or five years younger, Knicks fans will drool over it.

The Knicks' next offense showed their second plan, Iverson broke through with the ball to attract two Clippers players, and quickly passed the basketball through the gap to Maddie on the weak side.

Maddie misplaced and singled out Ji Guosha, but unfortunately the latter came from the strong side to make up for it, Maddie shook Ji Guosha with a dashing shooting feint, and then closed the ball and burst into the middle distance with an easy jumper to score two points again.

"Damn, it feels like they're just taking turns to play singles, attracting the defense and then breaking through the ball without a chance, and the other guy continues to play singles." Just halfway through the first quarter, Ji Guoyi discovered the Knicks' routine.

"Yes, it's very simple and direct, but it's the simplest and most effective, I think they play so well, and the outcome depends on the table of the two stars." Ji Guoqiu doesn't care too much, the two of them also scored a lot of points on the inside today, it is not easy for the Knicks to defeat them on the outside, everyone knows that the closer they get to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage.

Halfway through the first quarter, the score was 14:14.

Dunleavy Sr. called a timeout and instructed the defensive setup: "First, protect the rebound. Second, force them to shoot away from the basket, preferring to shoot rather than break through. Third, we have to insist on playing the inside line, playing the success rate, and we don't need to follow their rhythm. They like to play fast and make them happy, we play steadily on the offensive end, disrupt their attacking rhythm, sooner or later their shooting percentage can't keep up with us, that's when we solve them, now it's all about defending solidly and waiting patiently for opportunities. ”

The Clippers players have taken orders, and the old Dunleavy has played in the Finals, and now he is a famous coach, and the playoffs not only hone the players, but also the coaches.

The game restarted, and the Clippers replaced: Billups, Crawford, Barnes, Ji Guoyi, Ji Guoqiu.

Knicks come on: Nate. Robinson, Iverson, Maddie, Landry, Harrington.

D'Antoni's crazy energy has been committed again, this lineup Knicks have been used more than once after the All-Star break, Harrington, the No. 3 position, was moved by him to the No. 5 position to play center, the backcourt combination of small potatoes and Iverson is less than 180cm, which makes Knicks fans feel that the height of their team is really a problem, and the average height of this lineup is only 193cm, which is about the same height as Barkley.

However, despite its small size, the Knicks' 193cm short lineup is faster than before. Robinson is a bit of a poor version of Iverson, these two little ones scored two points after they came on the court, and they were all under the basket guarded by the two brothers, which made Ji Guo lose face and couldn't hang up.

Ji Guoshi is angry, but these two small men, especially Iverson's pull-up shot and weird layup in the breakthrough are really elusive, a small player like Iverson wants to survive in the league, he must master the accurate shooting rhythm, he can find a shot in front of the big man, it is much more difficult than the shooting of normal players, and the small man must be more accurate in timing to avoid being blocked.

In addition to the timing of the shot, there must also be an absolute advantage in speed, Iverson's shot is either before the defender blocks or at the moment the opponent doesn't expect, the former method, Iverson is already a little reluctant, because his absolute speed is being lost.
