517. Lebang wants to cheek help

It is said that there is an away game, but it is no different from the home court, this year's Lakers record against the sky, completely covering up the younger brother in the same city in the light, although they got the third record in the West, but not many people feel their existence, and even the competition system that was often criticized in the past is not much people care, and the Clippers can only sadly hold the third record in the West and rank fifth in the West......

If a division is too strong, it will be a big loss, because only two teams are allowed to be in the top four in a division, and even if five of their teams can be ranked in the top five of the division, only two teams can be in the top four. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Of course, the Clippers will not choose to surrender like the Nuggets and Pelicans, how can Rivers surrender to the Lakers? They want hard steel!

I have to say that the Clippers are definitely the strongest in the West, although they have dropped a little compared to the invincible state of the league last season, but they are definitely not a weak team.

In back-to-back games with the Clippers, the Lakers have had a tough time.

But the Lakers have been prepared for a long time, and they didn't have any rest during the two days of rest, and of course they didn't have much training, mainly to study the Clippers and practice tactics against the Clippers.

The Clippers' biggest weakness is at the small forward position, and the best player is Matt Barnes, who is suspected of being greened by Fisher.

So in these two games, the Lakers grasped this point to play, and whoever Barnes defended, he would attack with the ball.

It seems that Barnes is a small forward with good defense, but in fact, Barnes's defense depends more on his desperate style of play, but in fact, his defensive skills and awareness are not so good, otherwise he would not have received a base salary all year round, and those championship teams would not have let go of such a cheap and aggressive player.

The Clippers originally recruited Barnes and Wesley Johnson from the Lakers to bolster their defense at the front, after all, their shooting guards are two players who defend the giant hole - Crawford and Redick.

But after digging up Barnes and Wesley Johnson, Rivers didn't take long to regret it, these two guys don't like it!

When defending, a defense with a strong impact is as fierce as a tiger, and the result is that the opponent's shooting rate is 55 percent......

Kobe, Liu Ren, Clarkson, and even Jeremy Lin and McCollum, who were rotated by the Lakers, have all seen the Clippers use small forwards or scoring guards to defend whoever they want.

The only defensive strength of the Clippers on the outside is Paul, but on the Lakers' side, Paul will be an open pitcher, no matter how Paul changes defenses.

Originally, the overall strength of the Clippers team was not as good as the Lakers, the first two times they played against the Lakers were beaten, some players have no intention of fighting, and now they are playing the Lakers back-to-back, they have a greater burden in their hearts, plus the Lakers are targeted against them, and even Jordan Jr., who has an absolute rebounding advantage when dealing with other teams, is not pleasing in front of Whiteside, so the scene is completely controlled by the Lakers.

Although Rivers and Paul wanted to fight, their teammates were helpless, and the scene was all occupied by Lakers fans, and the Lakers defeated the Clippers back-to-back in two consecutive "home games" and won 70 wins!

70 wins and 7 losses!

With five games left, no one doubts that the Lakers can catch up with the Bulls!

……

……

The situation in the alliance is now largely clear.

On the Eastern side, the Hawks have no difficulty getting 60 wins, they have a 57-21 record with four games left, and their remaining three games are all Eastern teams, and none of them are in the top four in the East, so it will not be difficult to get three of them.

The Knicks won't be able to win 60 games because they've lost 23 games and now have a 55-23 record, but they're sitting second in the East.

The Cavaliers are now 52-26, and there is not much chance of fighting for second place, unless the Knicks lose all the remaining games, otherwise even if the Knicks win one more game, the Cavaliers have no hope of winning all the rest, because the Knicks have two wins and one loss in the game with the Cavaliers this season, and the Knicks have the advantage in each other's records.

Unable to catch up with the team in front, the Cavaliers did not dare to relax in these last few games, because there was a Q version of the dragon chasing them behind.

After being brutalized by the Lakers, the Raptors worked hard to become the fourth team in the East to break through 50 wins, and now it is 50-28, theoretically having a chance to surpass the Cavaliers, so the Cavaliers don't dare to take turns off, so they can only fight hard at the end of the season.

And what makes the Cavaliers feel that Alexander is that the Celtics after getting Dragic really climbed to sixth in the East and are still sitting!

The Wizards and the Celtics are quite stable in fifth and sixth, the Wizards are 44-34 in fifth, and the Celtics are 42-46 in sixth, because the Bucks and Bulls in seventh and eighth are both less than 40 wins, even if the next two teams win all the games, they can't catch up with the Celtics, so the Wizards and the Celtics have a tacit understanding to rest, the Celtics don't fight for fifth, and the Wizards are happy to start the playoffs.

This made James and coach Blatter of the Cavaliers very angry.

Why are you so unmotivated? Even if you can't make it to the top four, you're a green shirt! It's a good idea to fight for the third!

James said in an interview: "Some teams take a break at the end of the season, which is disrespectful to the fans! ”

Fans expressed their contempt for this, who was the thirty-year-old man who took turns to rest in previous years?

In fact, it's no wonder that James is a little anxious, the main thing is that the Celtics seem to have transformed after trading to Dragic, not that they can beat the Cavaliers, the main thing is that they are difficult!

The Celtics have too many small outside moves, and they are very tenacious, and they tied 2-2 with the Cavaliers in the regular season, even if the Celtics don't have the strength to beat the Cavaliers in the playoffs, but James estimates that he will have to peel off the skin!

James looked at the opponent who had basically been confirmed in the playoffs, first the Celtics, who had wanted to snipe at them for many years, and it was very difficult to play.

Then in the second round, he had to channel the Knicks, who played against James in the Eastern Conference Finals last year, and Anthony was not easy to deal with......

In other words, before reaching the Eastern Conference finals, James estimated that his skin had been peeled off, and his flesh was estimated to hurt for a while......

James said that he missed the big cheeks of Sandezi! He missed the days when he played with Sandeko, when the east was not as difficult as it seems now! Why did the future become so bumpy as soon as he returned to the knights?
