Chapter 763 [Highest Value, New Record]

Paul put down a big rock in his heart and played very well against the Lakers on the 4th, playing 35 minutes, shooting 11 of 18, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, and cutting 28 points, 6 rebounds, 15 assists and 2 steals.

Griffin finished with 24 points, five rebounds and two assists on 9-of-16 shooting, 1-of-1 three-pointers and 5-of-7 free throws.

Chandler finished with 12 points, 13 rebounds and two blocks on 6-of-8 shooting, 4 dunks and 0-of-1 free throws.

Curry finished with 16 points and three assists on 6-of-13 shooting, 2-of-7 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws.

The other players of the Clippers performed averagely, only 4 players scored double-doubles, and still easily beat the Lakers 117-102.

Bryant shot 16-of-27, 1-of-6 three-pointers, 7-of-8 free throws, and had 40 points, 3 assists, 4 steals, and no rebounds, while Howard had a double-double of 21 points and 15 rebounds.

The Lakers scored double-doubles with all five players, giving Kobe Bryant enough support, but they showed no signs of winning, the offense was open, and it was still useless to prevent it.

In the summer, it was reported that the addition of Howard would make the Lakers' defense stronger and make it difficult for the rest of the league to overcome.

Howard said of himself and the Lakers' new season: "With my eight-year career experience, I believe I will change the Lakers' defense, in fact, everything depends on whether you can win or not, and it only makes sense to win a championship." I don't care how many points I score each night, but I believe I'll continue to dominate both ends of the court. ”

As a result, now the Lakers can't prevent anyone. Poor defense has left this team with the feeling of not being a strong team at all. Losing and losing, cracks inevitably appeared between their players and their players.

Some time ago, the Lakers actually had a discordant situation, Howard criticized his teammates many times after the game, no one gave him a defense, and Kobe Bryant also quarreled with the Monsters in the game, but these details were vaguely passed by the parties after the game.

Today, the Lakers have another situation where players on the court blame each other for defense. After Griffin successfully scored three points in the third quarter, Kobe Bryant was furious in public and yelled directly at Jamison, blaming him for not making up for the defense in time, while Jamison was very helpless, not to mention the supplemental defense, even if he was the main defense, he couldn't stop Griffin.

Moreover, many people thought that with the addition of Howard, Kobe's scoring and playing time would decrease, giving up the ball, but they never expected that as the season deepened, Kobe's average points per game and playing time reached the highest value in the past 6 years.

The embarrassing thing is that in the game where Kobe Bryant scored 40+ points this season, the Lakers went 0-5.

Bryant was impatient in the second half, a bit of a big defensive move, and when he was scrambling for the ball with Guy, he elbowed Guy with a hidden move, causing the latter to return to the locker room for treatment with a face injury, and almost caused a conflict.

The Lakers' previous record of 39 consecutive wins in the regular season was almost broken by the Clippers, and the Lakers will struggle to make the playoffs this season, and if these two things are combined, Kobe Bryant can't imagine what the news will say at the end of the season.

The Clippers beat the disjointed Warriors 115-89 back-to-back, Brook Lopez was injured, and the Warriors failed to pose any threat and did not take a single lead.

After this game, the Clippers had a favorable schedule, with four days of rest, and the players were already rotated and did not have much time to play, and now their physical strength was replenished.

On Jan. 9, they faced playoff team Mavericks, who won comfortably 113-93.

The Mavericks are much stronger on the inside than Yang Rui in his previous life, and the outside line is still alive, although there is no Vince = Carter to join with a substitute. Gasol Jr., Kaman, and Nowitzki can rank among the top five in the league on the inside, but although they are strong in offense, they are not fast enough to prevent defenders from blocking and breaking through.

After this game, the Clippers have won 36 in a row, and there is no strong team behind them.

On the 12th, the Clippers hosted the rebuilding Magic, and the stars played badly in the first three quarters, trailing by 13 points, and entering the final quarter, Parsons and Farid stepped up, and a wave of 14-3 attacks caught up with the score.

The last three minutes were Guy's showmanship, with a slam dunk and two mid-range shots to seal the win. 110 to 104.

If you want to win the Clippers, you can't play well in one section, the Clippers rotate a lot of people, whoever is in good shape, Yang Rui will let them play more, the star downturn is not the end of the world.

This is how the Lakers set a record back then, if Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming performed poorly, Yang Rui dared to let them sit directly off the court, make adjustments according to the opponent's tactics, and let other players solve the problem.

On the 14th, the Clippers defeated the weak Grizzlies 101-73, winning 38 in a row.

The Clippers are the public enemies of the league this season, and all teams are working hard against them, but they are just desperate and can't close the huge gap in strength. The Grizzlies without Gasol Jr. and Randolph are all blue-collar on the inside, and once the outside players are guarded, it will be difficult for them to score.

The beneficiary is Lillard, who has won the Rookie of the Year award and has unlimited shots this season, and the team will rebuild with him at the core, developing him and swinging at the same time.

Jordan Jr., who was traded from the Clippers, has soared in numbers, averaging 15.3 rebounds per game to compete for the rebounding title, but he can't make the All-Defensive Team.

On the 15th, the Clippers faced the Rockets back-to-back. A win would tie the Lakers' 39-game winning streak.

This game was temporarily adjusted to be broadcast live in the United States, although the difference in strength between the two teams is obvious, it is the first in the league against the eighth in the West, but fans are paying attention to this game, and many people want to watch the Clippers make history.

The Rockets roster is slightly different from Yang Rui's previous life, and the most critical thing is the absence of forward Chandler Parsons, who poached CJ Myers as a replacement in the summer and signed veteran Caron Butler.

The interior is a little weaker, because without Joakim Noah, Asik has been reused in the Bulls, Morey can't dig it into the roster with a poison contract, and the starting center is Spencer Hawes, who is strong on offense and weak on defense.

The Rockets played very well in the first three quarters, with Harden and Jeremy Lin suddenly shooting a combination, and Delfino, Hawes, Butler, and Myers hitting a lot of three-pointers.

Yang Rui was concerned about the Rockets' backup point guard Patrick Beverley, who came out in the second quarter and unexpectedly blocked Curry. He has excellent individual defense, and when he encounters cover, he relies on speed to chase and defend aggressively.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Beverley was nicknamed "Mad Dog", with average statistics, but he worked hard defensively, conscientious, and had an absolutely serious attitude, no one could easily get rid of him, he was fearless.

When playing in Europe, playing away, being thrown at tear gas by the opposing fans, he doesn't change his face, what else can he be afraid of such a person?

It is precisely because of this character that in Yang Rui's previous life, my brother Hao in the society, who had a lot of ruthless hairstyles, was still squeezed to the bench.

In the final quarter, Rockets head coach McHale did not let Beverley play again, and Jeremy Lin, Harden, and Delfino rotated. The use of "refrigerators" caused the Clippers to quickly overtake the score.

Harden, who consumed a lot of physical energy on the offensive end and played an average of 38 minutes per game, unfortunately became a defensive colander, and when he encountered a side no-ball cover and was not actively pursued, Danny Green received the ball and shot three three-pointers in 3 minutes.

Opening the Sharingan is the fate of the Uchiha clan.

Hawes was slow to move laterally, and the pick-and-roll defense was just as bad, and Paul's breakthrough also disrupted the Rockets' defense, attracting the defense to give Griffin an impact on the basket, and Hoys didn't go out, and Paul ensured that he hit the shot.

At 117-109 in the final game, the Clippers won, opening a 39-game winning streak.

On a day off, the Clippers challenged the Timberwolves with an incomplete lineup on the road. Al Jefferson, the "Wolf King" who has steadily won 20+10, will be out for a month and a half due to injury, and the Timberwolves have a record outside the playoffs.

110-77, the Clippers set a new regular-season winning streak with a big win.
