Chapter 113 Tyrannosaurus Rex VS White Monster

The Clippers had a poor last season, with a playoff contender running an embarrassing 19-win record. The most criticized thing is to sign Byron Davis for 5 years and 65 million, even if he is played by Brand, the team hopes that he can make the Clippers another Warriors-style dark horse, but the result is a big disappointment.

Fortunately, they were lucky, and after a season of endurance and humiliation, they finally drew Blake Griffin, which made them full of hope for the new season again.

And Clippers head coach Mike Dunleavy is one of the most shaky in the position. Last season, the Clippers' record was miserable, and the conflict between Dunleavy and Davis also played a role in fueling the situation, the two sides did not buy each other, the atmosphere in the locker room was scattered, and there were many rumors that the Clippers were going to change coaches. However, during the offseason, Davis took the initiative to expose to the media, saying that the relationship between him and Dunleavy is gradually easing, and how to control the superstar will be a difficult proposition in front of Dunleavy in the new season, and it is also a problem for the Clippers.

According to ESPN columnist John Hollinger, the Clippers ranked first in the league in offensive efficiency this season, ranked fifth in the league in free throws, and the Clippers also occupied the league's worst shooting percentage, all thanks to Davis, whose chaotic state completely paralyzed the Clippers.

Compared with last season, they are missing Randolph's inside scoring machine, and the only good news comes from the two newcomers - Griffin and Gordon, the latter, who averaged 16.1 points per game in his rookie season, and is in good shape today, scoring 20+ points, while the former Blake Griffin, coming strongly, averaging 20+10 per game to suppress Evans and Corey.

Offensively, they made up for it, and the Clippers were a little better defensively, though they ironically finished 26th in the league last season.

Their defensive woes come from health, and with Carman and Camby's intimidating attendance rates, on paper, they could have done better than they have done now, especially when Camby can focus on defensive efficiency rather than just swiping up the stats.

This season, because Griffin is on the bench and Camby is on the inside swing bench, both Carman and Camby have reduced their playing time, and Griffin has also taken on more scoring responsibilities, and their defense is a day and a day away from last season.

The biggest X-factor of the Clippers is naturally Davis, who has grown from "chubby" to "chubby" last season, and all technical indicators have slipped to career lows.

If they can play the level of 20 points and 8 assists per game during the Warriors period, plus Gordon and Griffin's 20+, the Clippers can get a playoff spot in the highly competitive West.

The good news for the Clippers is that the Rockets' strength has quickly fallen due to Yao Ming's season reimbursement, which has given the Clippers another playoff spot to compete for.

In terms of potential, the Clippers' young players are not inferior to the Trail Blazers, and they are moving in the right direction for a rebuild, whether it is Griffin, Gordon or Thornton, who can be entrusted with a big role in the coming seasons, it is more appropriate to position them as fringe contenders for a playoff spot in the new season.

Against the New York Knicks, who are outside the Eastern Conference playoffs, the Clippers naturally don't want to lose at home, and Blake Griffin, facing the competitive Li Feng, will also go all out, this game is worth looking forward to!

……

Before the start of the game, ESPN expert Charlie Forde also gave a detailed introduction to this year's rookies, among which Li Feng, Griffin, Evans, Corey and Jennings are the strongest contenders for Rookie of the Year, and it is not surprising that Rookie of the Year will be produced among these five. …,

Surprisingly, the first place was not Griffin but Li Feng, if it weren't for Charliford's fame, someone would have directly scolded Charliford for being stupid. Forced.

Griffin and Li Feng are currently both in the power forward position, both have proud physical attributes, and both often show strong performances in games.

The careers of the two are just the opposite, Griffin is a superstar who is favored, the Clippers are the core of the team's rebuilding before they arrive, he has signed long-term high-paying endorsement contracts with various major companies, and his performance is also in line with people's expectations, although it is different from his template Karl Malone, but there are also first-class data of 20+10.

Li Feng is famous for his "parallel trade list", and has not been favored by people, and he has been suppressed in the Morpheus Grizzlies, and various large companies have only given him symbolic contracts, however, Li Feng has been in doubt, but his performance has continued to improve, in the Grizzlies, even if the playing time is not much, the data has gradually risen, and it has helped the Grizzlies to step into the ranks of the top eight in the West, traded to New York, Li Feng has been red, not only Noah and other young players have no way to take Li Feng, even Duncan can not completely limit Li Feng.

first suppressed and then raised, Li Feng attacked strongly, but he had a more amazing feeling than Griffin.

However, this only represents Charlie Fud's point of view, although the American media have always praised Li Feng, except for a few media in New York, they can evaluate Li Feng more objectively, but when they compare him with the American "white monster" Blake Griffin, they are obviously biased towards their own people.

The Clippers have always been "thousand-year-old fish belly" and "shipwreck", but as soon as the Clippers are mentioned this season, a name "Griffin" immediately pops up in my mind

Like Li Feng, Griffin feels refreshing.

Griffin's all-round offense, super physical fitness, and explosive dunks all make fans like it very much.

Although Griffin was already very famous in college and was elected as the top pick, with the experience of "Auden the Great", fans have reservations about the so-called super rookie in their hearts.

But Griffin surprised people as soon as he appeared this season, conquering the fans with his dunk alone.

To be exact, after so many years in the league, there are few big men on the inside, there are few such types, Griffin is still an American, and he must have to write a big book!

So, ESPN expert Henry Abbott writes in his column:

"This is an exciting collision, Tyrannosaurus Rex VS White Warcraft, just like werewolves VS vampires, both of them are big forwards, two people are champions and one is the leader, no matter how good Tyrek Evans, Stephen Correy, Blanton Jennings three point guards are, the inside line is the master of the court, Li Feng and Blake have the opportunity and ability to tie up this season to cut an average of 20 + 10 per game, the same body, Blake's offensive means are more comprehensive, and Li Feng's defense is stronger, among the two, I am more optimistic about Blake!"
