After leaving Dallas, the Clippers then lost to the Spurs, defeated the Rockets and Timberwolves, and with a 3-1 record on the road trip, the performance remained strong, and there was no second-half collapse in the season predicted by experts, and the Clippers also consolidated the fifth place in the West, and as the game progressed, the Clippers have all but locked up a playoff spot.

On March 20th, the Clippers faced the Phoenix Suns at home, the Phoenix Suns are now ranked 6th in the West, and the record is 2 wins behind the Clippers, and there is a possibility of pulling the Clippers down at any time, so the Phoenix Suns tried their best in this game, and the scores of the two teams were scorched until the 4th quarter. Tiger started the scoring show with Hardaway in the fourth quarter, and finally helped the Clippers win 115-112 against the Phoenix Suns with a hotter touch than Hardaway, Tiger scored 31 points in 35 minutes and won the best of the game, helping the Clippers widen the gap with the Phoenix Suns to three games.

On March 29, the Clippers played a wonderful game in Philadelphia and the Philadelphia 76ers, Iverson scored 67 points on 25-of-47 shooting in the game, playing an amazing statistic, in the game he broke through Billups's defense many times, and then completely played the excited Iverson, in the face of the Clippers' double bag, still broke through successively, Billups did not suffer physically when defending Iverson, but the speed was too slow Iverson, in the face of Iverson's butterfly through the flower step, Billups couldn't keep up with Iverson's rhythm at all, but his individual performance did not show the overall strength of the team, the Clippers scored in double figures in this game, and the Clippers also defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 107-105, which was a team basketball and individual basketball battle, and finally ended in team basketball.

Time to April, the NBA playoff competition has basically been divided, if nothing else, the Clippers will be 5th in the West, in the first round to meet the 4th San Antonio Spurs, the Clippers and the San Antonio Spurs have played a total of 4 times this year, 1 win and 3 losses, in addition to the first game to win, after the encounter, the Clippers face the San Antonio Spurs' strong interior line, there is no way at all, Coach Bilfitch is very worried about the Clippers' playoff prospects, Recently, my hair has turned a lot grayer, but good luck has inadvertently fallen on the head of the Clippers.

On April 11, in San Antonio's game against the Saramento Kings, Duncan injured his knee and was helped off the court by his teammates, and then the diagnosis report came out, Duncan will miss all games after this season, including the playoffs, who is Duncan? If you ask 100 fans, there may be 100 different answers, but one thing is the same, that is, Duncan's strength, and his role in the San Antonio Spurs, Duncan will miss the playoffs As soon as the news came out, Bill Fitch was really different, and a **** smile immediately rippled on his face, the Clippers only had 3 games left, and the opponent in the first round was also determined to be the San Antonio Spurs, Duncan was absent, and the aging David Robinson alone could no longer support the San Antonio Spurs' inside line, In the outside competition, the Clippers are completely undefeated by the San Antonio Spurs, or even better, and the Clippers have every possibility of defeating the San Antonio Spurs and entering the second round of the playoffs.

Unlike Bill Fish, Tiger dialed Duncan's phone as soon as he got the news, and the call was answered by Duncan's girlfriend Amy, Amy and Duncan were together in college, they are Tiger's senior sisters, and Tiger is also very familiar, Tiger did not shy away from asking about Duncan's injury, and finally proposed without subtlety that if Duncan wants, he can come to Los Angeles for treatment, the Clippers' medical room, which has the most advanced sports medical facilities and technology in the world, Amy thanked Tiger for his kindness, He also said that he would make a decision as soon as possible after discussing it with Duncan.

Duncan went to the Los Angeles Clippers for treatment, the biggest obstacle is the attitude of the San Antonio Spurs, Duncan will become a free agent this year, he has not chosen to renew his contract with the San Antonio Spurs, in this sensitive period, choosing to go to Los Angeles to receive treatment in the Clippers medical room, it is inevitable that people will have some associations, this is also where Duncan hesitates, in fact, Duncan has received other invitations, and is indeed hesitant to consider, of course, this team is not the Los Angeles Clippers, he and Tiger both understand, It's impossible for the Wake Forest trio to be on any NBA team at the same time, and there are too many factors here.

The first interest: This interest is simply money, Duncan is different from Tiger, Duncan has a lot of business contracts on his body, and any of his decisions, the merchants behind him have the right to interfere. Second status: Where there are people, there is fighting, there can only be one boss in the team, there are too many examples of this, Duncan's strength and fame determine his status, and the same is true for Tiger, if you go to the Clippers, Duncan and Tiger can no longer be like in college, and don't care who is the boss of the team. The third balance: celebrity benefits are very important in the United States, so almost every team has its own idol superstar, which is also a way for the league to balance the team, the league cannot let Duncan and Tiger join forces, and the Wake Forest Three Musketeers actually have no possibility of joining forces again, if it weren't for Jason's accident, it would be difficult for Jason to appear in the Los Angeles Clippers, which is the attitude of the league and David Stern.

These factors are actually obvious, Duncan and Tiger are also well aware, Tiger's invitation to Duncan is a brotherhood without any interests at all, Duncan also understands this, so Duncan is even more entangled, after discussing with his family and agent, Duncan finally decided to accept Tiger's invitation, after all, this is a major event related to Duncan's sports career, and finally Duncan decided to talk to Popovich about this matter in person, which is actually a temptation, If Popovich and the San Antonio Spurs are adamantly opposed to Duncan going to Los Angeles for treatment, then Duncan's fate with the San Antonio Spurs may really be over.

Popovich, who has not been going well recently, would make such a choice in the face of Duncan's request?
