The Clippers still want to play fast from the beginning, how to say it, this team has always been like this, the firepower is not bad, and with Paul in control, there will not be many mistakes. But as I said before, Rondo's task in this game is to pinch Paul. Because as long as Paul is consumed a lot, it will be difficult for the rest of the Clippers to play well. They're all too used to relying too much on this little point guard. Including Griffin + Jordan Jr., there is the best team and the best defensive lineup, and logically speaking, it is not the most ordinary All-Star. However, they are all more functional All-Star players. Jordan Jr.'s offense is almost detrimental to no one feeding the cake, and someone feeding the cake is only at the blue-collar level. His strength is on the defensive end. Griffin, it seems that he can do everything, facing the basket, carrying the ball, controlling the ball, turning, and hitting strongly, but it is just "a little dabbling". At critical times, he was basically invisible and couldn't stand up.

So when it comes to the strongest power forwards in the league, his name is always ignored intentionally or unintentionally.

Except for dunks, except for decent data, it seems that there is no sense of existence.

Therefore, the loss of Rondo and the loss of Paul mean completely different things to both sides.

Paul didn't play very comfortably from the start, Rondo was also a short guard, plus he was fast and had strong lateral movement, and his reach was a nightmare for all No. 1 positions. Paul also only has strength, and has a clear physical advantage over Rondo. In addition, Rondo is also an extremely good top point guard, so when he defends with all his strength, Paul is also a little uncomfortable. It's been a long time since he's seen such a defensively aggressive and defensively strong Rajan. Rondo. It looks like after going to the Lakers, he really feels like he's back to the top.

Paul didn't choose too much entanglement, he gave the ball to Riffin as soon as he passed the half, and Griffin still had to have some advantage over Randle. Although Randall is in good physical condition and has strong strength, he is still too tender, and this year is only the second year, and he spent most of the time in the hospital bed last year, so the weakness of eating the former is very serious. This is also a problem with Randle now, the defense is either not too active, or too positive, this degree, not well mastered.

After Griffin hit several, Larry. Brown made quick substitutions and used Yi Jianlian to come on to deal with it. Yi Jianlian is tall and has long arms, compared to Griffin, he has to occupy the advantage of hardware, and his physical fitness is naturally different from that of his opponent, but as long as he is not easy to be deceived and jumped. Because of the Lakers' interior line, there is also the No. 29 basket, Griffin scored in, and the effect is not necessarily good. The main thing is to prevent some of his attacks before he gets into the paint area.

Yi Jianlian belongs to the kind of player whose creative ability is not outstanding enough in the NBA, but he is very obedient to the instructions of the head coach, which can sometimes be too rigid, but sometimes it can also have a good effect. After Griffin was replaced by Yi Jianlian, both balls were missed. You can say that Yi Jianlian prevented him, after all, now that the two of them are in position, you can also say that it was Griffin who played with him. He wants to use the same set he just used to deal with Randall against Yi Jianlian, isn't it funny.

Yi Jianlian has developed a habit of not jumping easily since he partnered with Tang Qian on the inside, all he has to do is to delay and delay, the other party breaks through, just try to block as much as possible, don't keep thinking about blocking. His physical fitness is naturally good, the history of the yellow race is top, and the NBA can also be ranked near the middle and upper levels, and the problem of physical thinness that he suffered before is no longer there, so he defends honestly, and the effect is still there. In the past, Yi Jianlian still wanted to prove and show herself too much, which was a bit counterproductive on the defensive end.

Griffin killed one and went in, Yi Jianlian tried her best to delay, it was impossible to block it, but everything that could be done was done. Sure enough, because of his delay, Griffin's shooting time was slowed down and Griffin's explosive power was weakened, which gave the Lakers No. 29 under the other basket enough time to react. So this ball, as soon as Griffin came in, he was hit by a big hat as a head.

Griffin's point is not good, and Paul can only do it on his own, because the rest of the people still rely too much on his passing to get opportunities. The ability to create scoring chances with the ball is not good. Paul wanted to speed up the pace and speed on the court, but Rondo didn't let him do it easily, and the two often had fierce entanglements in the top arc, which was very enjoyable to watch.

Paul also remembered that this guy in front of him used to be a first-defense player in the league, and more than once, such a player, he wanted to break through easily, but it was not so easy. Those long arms that are a little perverted always give people a huge psychological oppression. In this case, the Clippers' offensive tempo did not get up as expected, but fell into a bit of a slowness.

The Lakers used this period to slowly open up the score difference, and Griffin's singles were like this, bursts and bursts, sometimes very good, sometimes as if they couldn't play at all, and the efficiency was extremely poor. With Greenfin's side unable to open, Paul could only force his own collision with Rondo to create scoring opportunities for the Clippers. Paul made an aggressive breakaway, then continued to dribble to find a rhythm gap, and after spotting one, he pressed against his body. Rondo defended well, but in the end, the opponent was Paul, and it was unrealistic to want to completely defend it. Paul used his strong individual ability to make a direct pass on the strong and weak side, which is very difficult, and it is difficult for the average point guard to dribble under such a tight single defense, let alone look at the six ways and find opportunities to pass this kind of pass with high difficulty. The basketball cut through the Lakers' defense and into the hands of J.J. Redick at a 45-degree angle on the left. Redick made a three-point shot and hit ~ the brush.

His three-point shot has always been very accurate, and the NCAA's all-time sharpshooter is not covered. This kind of opportunity ball, he did not let go.

However, it is impossible for Paul to last like this, because the consumption is very large, and it is more difficult to deal with Rondo's constant entanglement, and the pressure is much more than usual. Now he has to work so hard to organize, or it won't be long before his state and physical fitness will drop significantly. But don't forget, Chris. Paul has never been a physical freak. His fitness is good, but now that he is over 30 years old, his average appearance has dropped to 32 minutes per game this season, as evidence. That's the lowest since he joined the NBA. On Rondo's side, although the Lakers don't have another reliable No. 1 substitute besides him, his task tonight is obviously easier than Paul's, and he only needs to focus on defense. On the offensive end, if you can organize it, it doesn't matter if you can't organize it, the Lakers are a slow-paced team, just play slowly.

Even if there are more mistakes, it will be fine, and if it continues to be consumed like this, Paul's side will definitely get tired first.

And the Lakers on the inside haven't made a show yet. It reached a stalemate, and both sides had several balls, and at this time, someone needed to come out and break this sticky point. The choice of the Lakers is very simple, give the inside line, Tang Qian will play when he gets the ball, and Jordan Jr. on the opposite side will come over to defend. Jordan Jr. is still quite confident in his defense. However, this season's Tang Qian is not last season, he can't bear the latter with the playoffs. I saw that after Tang Qian's collision, he forcibly cut into the occupied space and pressed Little Jordan to get on. Jordan Jr. struggled to block, and the two collided together, and he had the upper hand in physical confrontation, and could only watch the Lakers score this goal on the 29th. At the same time, he also paid for a personal foul.

"I mean, do you think last season's old game can defend me?" Tang Qian walked to the free throw line and said, "I'm sorry, you think too much." On the free throw line, Tang Qian also hit a free throw. He scored a 3-pointer on the first offense of the game. It's a good start. The Clippers fell into passivity because of the team's poor offensive organization in the first quarter. With a few minutes left in the first quarter, the first bench time of the game began, and Clippers head coach Rivers actually wanted to use the bench to play a wave of high-speed defensive counterattacks, but after a lot of fast downs, he made a lot of mistakes. Come on, there's no good playmaking on their bench. The strongest is only one, Rivers Jr. and Jeff. Green. Both of them are people who average 1+ assists per game, and they can only act as endpoints at all. Pierce, who was supposed to join the Clippers, was on the Lakers again, and they were on the bench, there were still quite a few endpoints, and the scoring was not bad. But I want to push it so fast, it's a bit of a matter of course. The Lakers, on their side, are not vegetarians either. Getting rid of the No. 1 position is a bit weak, and the rest of the people are also trying to defend, plus there is Larry. Brown's system adjustment bonus, steady and steady, let the first quarter end, and the Clippers Rivers' idea was completely frustrated.
