Iguodala stood out in the third quarter, not the Clippers' top scorer on the offensive end, but the forward was a well-deserved player on the defensive end, shooting 2-of-5 from Korver's 5-for-1 shooting. George made 1 of 4 shots and also broke a pass from Ji Guoqiu, which was the biggest contributor to the Clippers' 10-point lead over the Nets.

After three quarters, Ji Guoqiu scored 27 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu scored 30 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks.

Nash had 15 points, two rebounds and seven assists, Lopez had 11 points and four rebounds, and Bledsoe had 12 points and two assists.

Billups had 10 points and five assists. Allen had 14 points, Iguodala had 10 points, four rebounds and three assists, O'Neal had eight points and three rebounds, Maddy had six points, two rebounds and three assists, and Hill had six points, two rebounds and two assists.

Clippers fans saw their team take a 10-point lead into the final quarter, and their hanging hearts suddenly relaxed.

Their "Clippers Rule" is now officially activated, and the Nets can't think of it.

In the fourth quarter, the two brothers returned to the court to rest, and the two sides switched to the bench lineup.

Bledsoe faced Dragic again, but it turned out to be another mess, turning the score gap into six points in less than a minute, and blowing Nash Jr. again.

Dunleavy Sr. had to call a timeout and replace Beverley again to defend Bledsoe, who had played chicken blood.

The contest between "Blood Shell" and "Blood Cloth" is once again unfolding.

Dragic returned to the bench and immediately covered his face with a towel, frustrating him for today's game.

Ji Guosha patted Dragic on the shoulder. Comfort the Clippers' future primary point guard.

At the same time, he was also a little puzzled in his heart. Dragic's defense wasn't bad. Fans say that he is little Nash, a pit dad who is the same as defense, which is a typical crowd.

Ji Guoyi knew that Dragic's defense was completely above the average level, and although the blood cloth on the opposite side exploded today, it would not beat Dragic like this. It can only be said that the Slovenian was stunned as soon as he came up, he couldn't accept that he was defeated by a first-year rookie, and then he never played as well as he should.

"Boss. You can get a good point guard, Bledsoe is a stunned young man, although the peak time is short, maybe when there is a serious injury, the level will plummet, but it is not a problem to use five or six years. ”

Ji Guoyi saw that Bledsoe was killing and rising, and even Beverley forced him to squeeze through, and after killing the inside line and causing Jordan Jr.'s fifth foul, he said secretly in his heart.

"Don't curse us, Paul. Both George and Bledsoe will need to grow over the course of a few seasons. If you want, I can trade Bledsoga Matthews for your Iguodala. What do you think? ”

Ji Guoqiu smiled in his heart, he looked at Iguodala even more greedy, if the Nets could make up Iguodala and Paul. George's second and third lineup, Nash's weaknesses are completely compensated.

"I'm not the boss, you better tell old Dunleavy to go."

Ji Guoyan would not make such a deal unless he was brain-dead. Iguodala is at his peak, can defend almost all the second and third stars, has a good ability to break through with the ball, can catch the pot at critical moments, and does not grab the ball, and the attack ** is very low, it is his favorite type of teammate, the panda wants to change, but there is no door.

Bledsoe exploded today, and the elder Dunleavy was replaced by Beverley, but he still couldn't limit the first-year rookie, and in the end, there was no way, and the Clippers could only replace Billups in advance.

Billups couldn't stop Nash's breakthrough because the latter's breakthrough had no warning, and it was difficult to judge the opponent's breakthrough route based on experience. But Bledsoe is different, this kid just relies on brute force, and he can't play hard with him to defend such a guy, he must rely on his head to defend.

Dragic could have been able to defend Bledsoe, and defending with his head is what he's good at, but today the white point guard didn't seem to have a brain.

Billups chose to let Bledsoe take a step and a half first, leaving himself enough time to react, as long as he found that the opponent had signs of a breakthrough, he immediately relied on experience and awareness to block Bledsoe's breakthrough route in advance, and used physical confrontation to force the opponent to make mistakes.

Among the active point guards, if you fight for physical confrontation ability, Billups dares to say that he is second, and not many people dare to say that he is first, and in terms of strength, he can crush nine out of nine point guards in the league.

This kind of defense has a good effect on limiting Bledsoe, stunned green is stunned after all, Billups has a lot of experience in dealing with Westbrook in recent years, the same method can be used directly, Bledsoe is violent, and now it is still a lot worse than Westbrook.

The elder Dunleavy was bound to win this game, and when he saw Billups resisting Bledsoe, he immediately replaced Iguodala and Ji Guosha, and the lineup on the court became: Billups, Iguodala, Hill, Ji Guosha, and Jordan Jr.

The Clippers' lineup is good both offensively and defensively, the Zen master underestimated the old Dunleavy's desire to win, and the substitution was a little slower, and the Clippers immediately relied on Ji Guoyi's strong attack, and one pass and one shot re-expanded the score to 10 points.

At 8 minutes and 20 seconds in the fourth quarter, the Nets replaced Ji Guoqiu, and the lineup on the court became: Bledsoe, Tony. Aaron, Paul. George, Humphries, Ji Guoqiu.

In the Nets' lineup, the triangle offense should be based on Paul. George and Ji Guoqiu are the main enemies, but Paul is in the first grade. George is really not enough to take on the heavy responsibility in terms of ball handling, he even struggled to break through the 38-year-old Hill, and after a breakthrough almost missed, he hurriedly handed over the ball and did not dare to attack with the ball again.

The Zen master shook his head, Paul. One of George's flaws is his ability to attack with the ball.

His ball handling skills, even in the No. 3 position, are barely average, and if compared to the first season of the No. 3 stars, he is probably the worst of them all.

The Clippers were smart on the defensive end, seizing the gap in Nash's absence, using a double bag to besiege Ji Guoqiu, not allowing the pandas to have a one-on-one opportunity, and letting Bledsoe go to attack.

Bledsoe hadn't thought of how to deal with Billups at the moment, and Ji Guoqiu saw that he couldn't move, so he hurriedly pulled out to cover. It's a pity that after the two took it apart. Bledsoe couldn't get the ball into Ji Guoqiu's hands. Two times in a row, you can only choose to attack on your own.

The Clippers were prepared. Bledsoe's breakaway didn't go well, missing both layups.

Once Ji Guoyi and Jordan Jr. protect the rebound, the Clippers will immediately launch a counterattack, which is the rhythm they are most familiar with.

Iguodala, Billups and Ji Guoyi, the speed and impact of these three when they switch offenses are not inferior to last season's Panda brother when he was in the team. Iguodala hit the basket twice in a row, and the Nets' deficit was stretched to 14 points in the blink of an eye.

The game has reached this point, and it will be difficult for the Nets to turn the tables around.

The Clippers have three seasons thanks to the efforts of the two brothers. Cultivated the ability to never collapse in the fourth quarter. Especially when the Clippers are leading by a large score, the state of the whole Clippers team will become extremely stable, which makes the Clippers slowly form their own team characteristics.

Many teams in the NBA have different team characteristics, or characteristics.

For example, the Lakers always make the mistake of underestimating the enemy, the Rockets like to drop the chain in the last quarter, the Spurs are always habitually slow to heat up, the Knicks are the most prone to tumors, the Jazz are good at playing iron-blooded basketball, the Suns and Warriors have no defense, and the Clippers are invincible in the fourth quarter...... The traits of these teams, whether good or bad, are not innate, but rather the characteristics of some influential coach or player, or even the characteristics of the city where they are located, give them the characteristics that make them unique.

The "Clippers Rule" is a characteristic that twin brothers bring to the Clippers, and this rule will not only increase the confidence of the Clippers players, but also affect the mentality of the opponent. Often, it's not the Clippers who take out the opponent in the final quarter, but the other teams themselves in the fourth quarter who are affected by the "Clippers Rule." A game in which the form drops and the game is lost.

The Nets were unaffected, with the game going into the 6:30 mark. Bledsoe was replaced by Nash.

After Nash came on the court, he quickly hit a three-pointer to help the Nets stabilize the situation.

Bledsoe played well enough in this game, scoring 18 points and 3 assists in the first game of his career, which was better than the first game of many superstars, and Jordan only scored 19 points in the first game of the year.

After Nash came on the court, the Nets' triangle tactics could play a role on the offensive end, and they could ensure that the speed of the score increase was not lower than that of the Clippers, but it was still reluctant to catch up with the score difference of more than a dozen points.

Nash had just hit a three-pointer. Allen turned around and returned a mid-range shot, and the "Clippers Rule" was working.

The Clippers have poached 10 million sharpshooters this season, and they showed their worth in the first game. Although Ray. Allen's athleticism has long since left him, but his transition has been very smooth in recent years. Allen is going to be better than the year the Boston Big Three were formed, and that good form has continued into this year.

Thunder. Allen's first year with the Celtics was not particularly consistent, especially in the playoffs, and he was even scolded by fans as a cancer.

At that time, Ray. Allen hasn't fully adapted to his transition, and he's not used to being the team's top three.

Anyone who goes from the core of the team to the top three takes a process to adapt. Now, three years later, Ray. Allen has completely completed his transformation and is now really used to having his teammates help him get attention and play the role of an open shooter himself.

Before the words fell, Ray. Allen got another open shot, and his hand went up and down, and he scored three points for the Clippers again.

The Zen master was expressionless on the sidelines and did not call a timeout.

In the Clippers' offense, Ji Guoyi first attracted two Nets players to wrap up, and then passed the basketball to Billups.

Billups received the ball and broke through again, successfully disrupting the Nets' defensive formation, and then splitting the basketball again.

Thunder. Allen came out with Iguodala's cover at the moment, received the pass and immediately took a shot, hitting the unguarded open three-pointer.

The Nets aren't bad defensively, but they really can't take care of Ray. Alan.

After Ji Guoyi passed the ball out, he also used the cover to go around to the outside, and the Nets' attention was all focused on the fox brother, and there was no time to care.

This leakage, on the one hand, is the problem of the defensive tacit understanding of the Nets players, they only had eight preseason games to run in, the team chemistry is not enough, and the tacit understanding on the defensive end is not enough, and it is inevitable to encounter a team like the Clippers. Second, the Clippers have so many scoring points that it will be difficult for any team to defend against the Clippers' offense.

The game lasted for the last three minutes. The main players of both teams have long since returned to the field. However, the score difference remained at about 10 points. The Clippers were terrible in the final quarter. As long as the Nets have someone scoring in a row, the Clippers will definitely have someone to step up and return the color.

Iguodala, Ray. Allen and Ji Guoyi, these three took turns scoring in the fourth quarter, so that the Nets increasingly did not have any hope of equalizing. At this time, even Ji Guoqiu was a little desperate, and he didn't know if the damn "Clippers Rule" was really made out by the two of them, anyway, every time the Clippers entered the final quarter with a double-digit lead, the players rarely played badly.

The score was 121:110. With three minutes left in the game, the Clippers had already scored 31 points in the final quarter. If it continues like this, it will not be a problem for the Clippers to score 40 points, but it is really a bit evil to look at it this way.

"Damn, I'll get a 'Nets Rule' for the Nets sooner or later!"

Ji Guoqiu grabbed two frontcourt rebounds under the basket, but unfortunately failed to make two rebounds.

grabbed it again for the third time, and this time Ji Guoyi didn't give him another chance and protected the rebound.

Ji Guoshi was too lazy to pay attention to the giant panda's complaints, and his physical strength was still abundant until the game was played. When you get the basketball, you immediately pass it to your teammates and accelerate to the front court.

The Clippers fought back again quickly. Ji Guoqiu gritted his teeth to keep up, but he felt a little tired. Today he played almost 40 minutes, grasping the interior defense and offense, and the Pandas finally experienced the feeling of exhaustion, otherwise they would not have missed the basket for the two rebounds just now.

Ji Guoyi rushed to the front court, and took a look back, seeing that the giant panda was thrown away by him several positions, the dead fox suddenly danced with joy, and finally ended the attack with a tomahawk dunk, and the entire Staples Arena was completely detonated!

Brother Fox's explosive dunk this time basically announced the defeat of the Nets!

The Zen master called a timeout, but after the game restarted, the Nets still couldn't play an offensive wave, and the defense was always leaking, and the Clippers always got open shots, so it's hard to mention any more comebacks in such a game.

The game quickly entered the final minute, and the score gap remained in double digits. Jackson replaced all the main players and announced that he would not play the game.

With a final score of 128-116, the Clippers defeated the New Jersey Nets by 12 points, and the first leg of the animal battle also ended with the victory of the Red Fox.

In the whole game, Ji Guoqiu scored 35 points, 20 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu scored a game-high 42 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks.

Nash had 20 points, 3 rebounds and 9 assists, Lopez 13 points and 5 rebounds, Bledsoe 18 points and 3 assists, Matthews 12 points, and Paul. George had 8 points and 2 rebounds.

Billups had 15 points and eight assists. Allen had 22 points, Iguodala had 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, O'Neal had 10 points and 4 rebounds, Maddy had 8 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, and Hill had 8 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

"Boss, what's the matter, am I good?" After Ji Guosha's game, he asked in the giant panda's ear arrogantly.

"I think Ray. Aaron is amazing, congratulations on your success in hugging your thighs. Ji Guoqiu lost the ball, and he was extremely unhappy, and he wanted to slap the dead fox.

The elder Dunleavy stepped on the soles of his feet again today, and he also felt exhaled and raised his eyebrows, and was interviewed by the media on the sidelines, smiling and saying: "I didn't know that we could play so smoothly, I just think that our team was very focused when we entered the game, and we were eager to win this game, which is very important." Before the start of the season, I was worried that the team would lose momentum after three consecutive titles, but now we see that our lads are still hungry for glory. ”

After the game, the Nets and Clippers swapped jerseys and quickly left the court.

Nets players know that this game was more watched than last season's Finals, and it felt bad to be beaten in front of hundreds of millions of fans around the world.

At the post-game press conference, the Zen master was still expressionless and said: "We gave Fox a lot of fast-break opportunities and sent a lot of dunks, which undoubtedly helped the Clippers establish an advantage. When you give your opponent a lot of these chances, it's very difficult for us to organise a counter-attack effectively. If we continue to give the opposition open shots and counterattacks like we did tonight, then the defeat will continue. ”

Speaking at the press conference after the game, the Canadian self-criticized, saying: "Defensively we've been a little sluggish, we've been very slow to react in transitions, and we've been leaking a lot on the defensive end, so we need to fix our defensive problems." He then congratulated the Clippers, "Tonight, the Clippers are undoubtedly more hungry for victory, they played much better than we did, and they deserved to win." ”

Ji Guoqiu was not so pessimistic about the Nets losing the first game after the game, he said: "This is normal, I have long said to Nets fans that a newly formed team like ours needs to run in in all aspects, and it will take a lot of time, everyone must be patient." "At the beginning of the season, I was even prepared for three in a row, five in a row, and those failures will speed up the pace of our run-in, so I'm hoping we can lose a few more games early in the season so that we can find the problem, because it's better to lose now than to lose in the playoffs." ”

Panda went on to say, "We didn't have nothing today, Eric was very good, we got a great point guard. But I hope that he can respond to the media's next praise for him with a rational and calm mind. (To be continued......)
