This season, the speed of the Clippers' dark horse is a bit excessive, in the past twenty or thirty years, except for Duncan who has this phenomenal table after entering the NBA, even LeBron . James wasn't so wicked back then.! The Gorillas only made the playoffs in their third season, and in this way, the twin brothers are now on the verge of reaching the Finals, which seems to have gone too far.

In fact, Lakers fans should be familiar with this, the reason why Magic Johnson's historical status is no less than that of Flyer Jordan is precisely because he led the team to accomplish greater feats than the Clippers at this moment!

In the 1879-1980 season, the first season of the Magic into the NBA helped the team win the 1980 championship, although the Lakers were not weak at that time, but the most critical game of the finals, the core of the team at that time, Abdul-Jabbar was injured and did not play, everyone thought that the Lakers were lost, but they were beyond everyone's expectations, and they won the championship by knocking the Celtics off the road, and the championship led by the Magic team at that time was full of weight. (Many students wondered, how did the Lakers get the top spot that year?) This is thanks to the Jazz boss, this champion sign was given by the Jazz. Originally, the Jazz were still championship contenders the previous season, and the first-round signing was not valuable, but in the season before the Magic entered the league, the unlucky Jazz's two leading cores were all reimbursed, and they became the league's bottom-to-bottom, and the previous signing to the Lakers became the champion sign that made the Jazz vomit blood. ）

The Magic guy was even stronger than his current twin brothers when he entered the league, and this guy who now looks like a dead fat guy scored a triple-double in the first game of the playoffs. and eventually achieved the first championship of his career. Become the NBA Finals MVP. This rate of rise. It's just like the characters in the novel, and it is estimated that only Chamberlain can compare with him, but in terms of the ability to lead the team, the magician is stronger. In the entire history of the NBA, only two people have completed their first season in the NBA and won the championship as the core of the team. Russell.

So. Will twin brothers be the third?

This answer, at least after the Clippers enter the Finals, is still a little early to talk about, the Lakers have not been eliminated.

The game started immediately, the bench players of the two teams began to leave, Kobe Bryant and Gasol had heavy faces, if there are still many people at this time who still look down on the Clippers with twins as the core due to racial discrimination, then this does not include Lakers players, they already know how powerful these guys are.

Billups and Artest are both All-Star calibres. One is the MVP of the Finals and the other is the former Best Defensive Player. And the age is about 30 years old, it is the body that has not declined significantly, but the technology and experience have reached the peak of the peak of their careers, coupled with the almost demonic twin brothers, if those people take off their colored glasses and think about it carefully, they will find that the Clippers lineup is simply a lone league, a luxury lineup that aims to win the championship, and the original Celtics and Lakers have the same effect, what reason do the Lakers have to look down on others?

Magic Johnson said sourly at the moment: "The Clippers have almost no flaws in their roster, and as long as their coach doesn't make big mistakes, this team will be difficult to beat." ”

Van Gundy looked at the magician who looked a little lonely, and felt funny in his heart, and secretly said that this guy really had purple and gold blood, and his own team had not been eliminated yet, so he sighed here first, as if the team had been eliminated.

"Are all the old people like this? Or is the magician angry and depressed? ”

The Lakers sent out the starting lineup today: Fisher, Kobe, Odom, Rademanovic, Gasol.

Clippers starting lineup: Billups, James. Posey, Artest, Ji Guosha, Ji Guoqiu.

In the opening jump ball, Ji Guoqiu defeated Gasol without any suspense, Lakers fans said that they don't care about this blow anymore, don't they just can't win the jump ball, and have the ability to win our seventh game?

As soon as today's game opened, Ji Guozhi was extraordinarily active, running fast with two long legs, it was difficult for Radmanovic to keep up with this kind of flying fox, Ji Guoyi's speed was indeed too perverted on the inside!

Originally, the fox brother still had a little injury on his buttocks, which was injured in the fourth game, and the initiator Turyaf has been banned for three games after the game, and unless the Lakers advance this season, even if Turyaf's nose is not broken, he will not be seen.

But after resting for nearly a week, Ji Guoyi's big fart injury had already healed. However, their public relations team didn't announce it to the outside world, they still released the news of Ji Guoyan's left hip flexor strain, and even the parties themselves didn't know, what the hell is this "flexor"?

"Hurt so quickly?" Radmanovich said to his heart that you are teasing me? The skiing man really couldn't keep up with Ji Guoyi's speed, he was already about to be thrown away by Ji Guoyi, and he was stopped by the panda hero in the forbidden area, which completely lost Ji Guoyi.

The Lakers players rotated quickly, Kobe Bryant came up to make up for Ji Guosha, and Radmanovic ran directly to Posey, but the skier was still a little slower, and Billups quickly passed the basketball to Posey, who hit a three-point shot.

It's a tactical combination that the Clippers have had so often this season, and the open shot looks like it's going to be extremely easy.

It's not for nothing, there is a top attacker like Ji Guoyi in a team, in addition to scoring himself, he can also attract the opponent's defense to give his teammates a chance, and the purpose of the tactic is to make the defense chaotic and make mistakes and there are empty positions, so Ji Guoyi itself is a good tactic.

Fisher glanced at Kobe, who didn't seem to have any intention of dribbling and attacking, and the old fish dribbled the ball to the front court one by one.

The Lakers used a lot of multiple covers on the offensive end today, the main purpose was to give Kobe Bryant a chance to shoot in an open position, so that Peter Pan could fire on the offensive end to break through the Clippers' defense.

Lao Yu and Radmanovic were responsible for opening up space on the outside, Gasol and Odom did a double cover for Kobe Bryant on the inside, and Peter Pan ran back to get rid of Posey. Pick up a pass near the free throw line and jump quickly. A picturesque shot. Also easily scored two points for the Lakers.

The Lakers' multiple covers are more than two inside lines today, and the Zen master makes full use of Fisher's strong body, and when the old fish finishes passing the ball, he will immediately come up to cover Kobe. Today, except for Radmanovic who has been opening up space outside and waiting for the ball, the other three have to block Kobe Bryant anytime and anywhere to help Peter Pan get rid of the defense.

Many people quickly discovered that the Zen master was actually delusional about relying on Kobe's attack power today. Rely on his individual ability to beat the Clippers?

The Zen master played psychological tactics again at this time, didn't Kobe always want to play 1 to 5? Phil. Since Jackson can't change this, he simply encourages you to play like this, and encourages Kobe to shoot more shots in today's game and use his personal offensive ability to penetrate the Clippers.

As a result, Kobe Bryant was on the court today, but paid more attention to passing, not only did he excel on the offensive end, but he could also pass a lot of good balls to his teammates even if he played the ball. The Zen master said that his heart was too tired!

Of course, the Clippers' defense is not vegetarian. Kobe Bryant doesn't always get open opportunities, at which point Radmanovic runs to the weak side, and Kobe Bryant will play another classic triangle strategy with Gasol and Odom, using his personal ability to give his teammates the ball and create a chance to shoot.

In the first quarter of the game, Lakers fans can see that their team has improved under high pressure, at least in terms of tactical coordination compared to the first five games, and the threat of creating a zào is also greater, which shows that the Lakers still have a lot of potential to tap, and they have not yet reached their true peak.

In the first quarter of the game, the score was 28:28, and the two teams were tied.

The Lakers do still have potential to tap, but the Clippers' progress is more obvious, and the twin brothers have a bunch of potential there, and everyone can see the same talent as the two in the bottomless pit. For every point the two of them improve, the Clippers are one point better, and the limits of this upstart team depend entirely on how far the twins can improve.

Ji Guoyan was full of firepower in the first quarter, and had a-for-tat confrontation with Kobe, and in the first quarter, the two of them went back and forth, covering nearly half of the scores of their respective teams, making neutral fans shout for fun!

Ji Guoqiu had 4 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Ji Guoyi had 12 points and 3 rebounds, Billups had 5 points and 2 assists, Artest had 4 points, and Posey had 3 points.

Kobe Bryant had 14 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Gasol had 4 points and 3 rebounds, Radmanovic had 3 points, Vujacic had 3 points and Odom had 2 points.

After a timeout, Dunleavy Sr. encouraged the players: "Well done, Kobe's scoring ability is already known to everyone after a few games, our strategy remains the same, even if he gets a high score, we want to win." On the defensive end, remember not to take the defense lightly and watch out for the two pitchers they are ambushing on the outside. On the offensive side, our fast attack has not yet been played, but don't worry, you must see the right time to launch a fast attack, I am asking you to quickly hit the enemy, not to let you die quickly! ”

The Clippers players all laughed, and it could be seen that they had a better mentality from the players to the coaches and the whole team today.

Dunleavy Sr. was replaced in the second quarter by Billups, Francisco. Garcia, James. Posey, Tim. Thomas, Paul. Davis' combination, Billups and Posey were replaced early in the first quarter, and the twins played the entire quarter, which was the Clippers' rotation strategy today.

As soon as the second quarter began, Billups immediately used his power to brutally break through Famar and hit the penalty area to assist Thiem. Thomas hits from mid-range.

Charles. Barkley glanced at Billups' counts and said, "I like the way Billups contributes to the team, his offensive approach is unpretentious, he can actually use a variety of offensive means to contribute to the team, and it's all so solid and reassuring, his turnovers are fantastic, he's a really good point guard." ”

Kenny. Naturally, Smith had no objection and agreed: "I agree the same way, the Clippers' system suits him well, and the old Dunleavy designed a free, fluid and varied system for the twins." As the team's main point guard, he can shoot, can break through, and contribute on both offensive and defensive ends, which can make the Clippers' style of play change more, and the important thing is that he is very susceptible to injury. ”

"If it's a one-round offense, Nash is the best point guard for the Clippers, but he's not as good a defender as Billups. In my opinion, the Clippers have twins, and Billups has formed a perfect iron triangle, Artest has a relatively small role in this system, and he is treated by Dunleavy Sr. as a strengthened version of Posey, not fully using his abilities. ”

"That's right, as the twins gradually improve their offensive ability, especially on the inside, Artest's role will become less and less. At the No. 2 and No. 3 positions of the Clippers, what is needed is a role player who has excellent single defense and can shoot open three-pointers, such as Garcia, who is fully capable of playing the main position. And we can imagine that next year Sterling will not have the luxury of giving Artest a contract with an annual salary of 10 million, and he will definitely choose to replace Artest with a cheap Garcia or someone else.
