Just when the Lakers were desperate for their playoff journey, and the farce on the Clippers' side was even more suspenseful, Paul trained the day after the interview, and the old groin injury recurred, and whether he could participate in the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain became the focus of media attention.

Huang Yu learned that Paul's old injury had recurred, and he thought that Paul had deliberately released the news in order to let Huang Yu play, but after Bill Duffy's verification, people really had a recurrence of the old injury, and Huang Yu was a peacock - he was amorous!

However, Paul still chose to play with an injury, and Huang Yu also appeared on the bench for a long time, but he was not able to start, and the reason given to Negro was that the injury had not fully recovered, and the playing time was shortened as much as possible.

The Grizzlies were shocked to see Huang Yu warming up, and if he played, this game would be a bit difficult, but the coach told them Negro's statement, and Tony Allen was relieved, it was good not to have a full court like a dog skin plaster.

Although Huang Yu warmed up, he didn't have to play, and Huang Yu would leave the table directly when the game started, and this battle of Tianwang Mountain not only determined whether the Clippers went to the Grizzlies with the victory, but also related to Negro's position.

If the Clippers win this game, then Negro can continue to coach, as long as he loses a yellow rain, he will get out, although he doesn't care about the Clippers' record this season, but if he can enter the second round or even go further, it is related to the introduction of reinforcements next season, the closer to the championship, the more players can be attracted!

"I'll try to get you on the show as early as possible!"

Paul's words made Huang Yu stunned, is it possible that you want to learn from Kidd and not make a move? Then the Clippers starters have to play, and it is very possible to fall behind by more than ten points in the first quarter!

"No need, you guys try hard! I thought everything would remain the same when I came back, but I didn't expect to be a substitute, and if I was really injured, it would be okay, but if I didn't get hurt, wasn't this playing with me? ”

Huang Yu got up directly and returned to the locker room, his words did not care about others, normal volume! I believe that Negro, which is not far away, has heard and heard clearly! Everything was in time before the game, and this was also the last chance given to him by Huang Yu, but unfortunately Negro was obviously not going to accept it.

“Rain.....！ ~”

Paul wanted to say something, but the referee had already urged the player to start.

----------

The Clippers continued the slow performance of the previous games, and after nearly 4 minutes in the first quarter, Paul made his first shot and hit a layup, but the Grizzlies' state was not very good, and the Clippers led 12-8 after half a quarter, but this was Paul's only shot in this quarter, and it may have really affected Paul's state due to injury, so Paul appropriately reduced the breakthrough in the first quarter, but the original picture missed one after another.

Gasol Jr. and Randolph of the Grizzlies then seized the opportunity to hit frequently, and the Grizzlies quickly overtook them. With 2:27 left in the quarter, Gasol Jr. received a pass near the free-throw line, and he held the ball in one hand, stepped to the basket in two steps, and scored with a one-handed dunk to give the Grizzlies a 28-20 lead.

Randolph then hit two shots as the Grizzlies extended their advantage to 36-22 after the first quarter, and with the Clippers Griffin suppressed, veteran Butler stepped up and scored a game-high seven points in the first quarter.

Five minutes into the second quarter, Guy turned and hit a shot as the Grizzlies completed a 10-6 spurt to take an 18-point lead at 46-28.

At this time, Griffin, who was limited on the defensive end, cooperated with Paul to return the color with an aerial relay dunk, and in the subsequent offense, he made a basket to help the Clippers chase the score to 36-48.

However, Paul struggled to organize a fluid attack under the tight defense, and could only hit two three-pointers with the help of Mo Williams, and then the Clippers failed to shoot again for four and a half minutes of the second quarter, and the Grizzlies maintained a double-digit advantage at 57-42 at halftime.

----------

“Rain!”

Paul searched the locker room and didn't find Huang Yu, the bag was there, the person was gone, and he was still counting on him to play in the second half!

"It's the first time I've seen such an irresponsible player, so I must report it to the management and give him a ban and a fine!"

When Negro saw that Huang Yu was not in the locker room, he immediately felt a lot more comfortable, and told the assistant coach to make a note that Huang Yu left without permission and to give feedback to the management! If it were another team, the coach might have issued a ban and a fine, but in the Clippers, Negro doesn't have that much power.

When Paul and Negro were on the bench just now, they said that the Clippers' attack could not be opened, and they hoped that Huang Yu could play in the second half, although Negro was reluctant, he still gave Paul face, after all, Huang Yu showed up just now, although he went to the locker room now, he could find someone.

Unlike when he was in Memphis, Huang Yu flew away directly, even if the score difference was large, there was no way to let him play, and Paul was not injured in the first few games.

Although the second game was in charge of giving Huang Yu a ban, although it was the right of the coach, he was also scolded for being a bloody dog! This time Huang Yu went back to the locker room again without authorization, and Negro was also very unhappy, and he didn't give himself face at all.

But Paul hopes that Huang Yu can go on the field to chase points, so he will give Paul a face, so that even if he loses the game, he will be the first to find Huang Yu, although he said that he would let him play as a substitute, but he did not say that he would not let him play, and what was the matter if he left without permission!

But back in the locker room Huang Yu is no longer there, this is interesting, Negro feels that even if he loses this game, the pot can be thrown on Huang Yu's back! Pick yourself out!

----------

I didn't find Huang Yu, the second half of the game was about to start, so I had to go back to the court first, they just walked on the front foot, and Huang Yu walked back to the locker room with two hot dogs on the back foot! Lying on the physiotherapy bed and chatting with Abby.

The Grizzlies had a precedent of having a large lead reversed, so they didn't dare to be careless, and they still defended Paul with all their strength in the second half, although they endured several attacks with injuries, but they were easily repelled by the Grizzlies.

With 3:02 left in the third quarter, Gasol Jr. hit one of two free throws, and the Grizzlies completed a 10-0 attack wave to take a 24-point advantage at 75-51.

In 4 minutes, the Clippers didn't score a point, and now not only the Clippers players are in a hurry, Negro is also in a hurry, the last time he was pulled away by more than 20 points, it was a reversal, he didn't have a, but again and

But Negro didn't have a good way, and soon Williams shot three points, although the difference was still 20+, but at least the Clippers began to score, although Paul is a traditional point guard, but his offensive ability is also very strong, the Grizzlies' defense just relaxed, and was immediately attacked by Paul. He first drew two consecutive fouls, one on a breakaway, one on a three-point line, and made all five free throws.

This wave of scoring not only helped the Clippers stop the bleeding, but also brought the rest of the Clippers players to start chasing points, but the Clippers quickly paid the price for their comeback, Griffin collided with Gasol Jr. with 1:33 left in the third quarter, sprained his knee when he landed, fell to the ground in pain, and finally had to be substituted.

Griffin returned to the locker room, and the Clippers' offensive burden was completely on Paul, and in the last 31.9 seconds of the quarter, Paul gritted his teeth again and hit two shots, and the Clippers chased the score to 65-77.

Paul scored 10 points in the final 2:22 of the third quarter, and the Clippers had a lot of momentum to come, and after the start of the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies only hit two shots in six minutes, and the Clippers went on a 10-4 run to trail only 75-81 halfway through the quarter, and at this time Griffin's injury was not serious and he returned to the court.

But Grizzly Conley and Guy shot one after another, the Grizzlies stabilized their position 85-75, Mo Bu passed some up, missed three consecutive shots, and wanted the ball, after giving a few inside lines and couldn't score, the ball had to be transferred to the outside, and when there were 3 minutes and 47 seconds left in the game, Mo Bu passed and finally scored, but the score difference that was finally narrowed was opened again.

The Grizzlies defended the victory with a strong defense for five minutes, and the Clippers only had one shot in five minutes, although Randy Ferye broke through for a layup with 55.7 seconds left before the end of the game, and the Clippers chased the score to 79-85.

The Clippers used foul tactics, Randolph made one of two free throws, but Guy grabbed a vital offensive rebound, and after the Grizzlies ran out of offensive time, Guy scored a layup to give them a nine-point advantage at 88-79 with 19 seconds left.

The Clippers saw that there was no hope of turning the tables, so they directly ran out of time and waited for the game to end, and Paul walked slowly to the locker room on the warrior's own lower abdomen as soon as the game ended, and even thought that Paul's old groin injury recurred before the game, and no one would say anything about him even if he left the game first.

----------

"I feel like you're intensifying the conflict, do you really want the Clippers to get out of the game as soon as possible and then find a home?"

Paul frowned and put the ice pack on his injured place to relieve the pain, and looked at Huang Yu who was lying in the physiotherapy room and asked!

"Whether or not to find a home depends entirely on the attitude of the Clippers, so far, I don't see that the Clippers intend to keep me, otherwise there will be no inexplicable ban!"

Huang Yu also said with an unhappy face, although he directed and acted in a play, but those cows, ghosts, snakes and gods are hidden so deeply, and they can't be tested by Ben, and the only Negro who jumps out is still a dispensable product, but he still dances the happiest.

Although Huang Yu was buying hot dogs, the system made it clear that Negro had banned himself again! Let's ask such a fool, what is the use of Huang Yu even if he comes on the court to make a Jedi comeback, it is better to finish the playoffs in one round, and play the Spurs in the next round, just the inside line of the Clippers, it is strange not to be abused to death, and the interior combination of Griffin and guest Martin is really not promising.

Not to mention playing the Lakers or the Thunder, the Lakers' interior combination is the top in the West, and the Thunder's interior combination is not so good, but it is also first-class, even if the Clippers don't use Jordan Jr. to trade, the Clippers are not ranked as the insider.

"Now that your attitude has been determined, I won't fight for anything!"

Paul is disappointed, let's see how the Clippers trade in the offseason, if there is no future, it is better to leave as soon as possible! Why don't you let the agent and the Lakers get in touch?

"It's not that I'm so resolute, it's that I have to do it, otherwise where is my dignity? Believe it or not, I'll be banned in a moment! Whether it's written or in-person. ”

Soon the Clippers players also returned to the locker room one after another, and when they saw Huang Yu and Paul sitting in the physiotherapy room, the atmosphere was very solemn, and they didn't dare to squeak!

"You're banned for the next game!"

The main coach rushed in unknowingly and said to Huang Yu arrogantly.

But Huang Yu didn't bird him, he was still playing with his mobile phone there, and glanced up at Paul, which means you can take a look! Paul rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to them.

----------

Since Huang Yu was banned from the game, he didn't even go to the arena, just when the Clippers fell behind 3-2 and were about to be eliminated, Sterling stood up again and began to turn over Huang Yu's beating of him, but before the waves rose, the president strongly suppressed it.

Although the president found out that the Clippers were wrong when Huang Yu was suspended and missed the playoffs without illness or disaster, he couldn't directly interfere, so he called the interim president of the Clippers to ask why.

Although Huang Yu's puppet president doesn't know how to operate the Clippers, he also knows that the Clippers are not monolithic, so he perfunctory Mr. President, the Clippers are currently rectifying the management, and he doesn't know much about Huang Yu's ban, so he will use procrastination as much as possible!

The president knows that the Clippers are over this season, and it seems that he still has to bury two chess pieces, otherwise if the Clippers can't achieve their due combat effectiveness next season, then the Heat really can't be restricted, is it really for the Spurs to go? Just when the president had a headache, Negro also released smoke bombs under pressure.

Before the game, the news was released that the two may not necessarily play, but this is obviously not a few people believe this smoke bomb, although the Grizzlies do not have a lot of playoff experience, but they will not easily believe this kind of stupid words, at this life-and-death juncture, the Clippers cannot let the two main players rest, unless they are really seriously injured.

Sure enough, both of them started the game, Griffin changed the decline of the previous games after the opening, hit two difficult shots in a row, and with 8:08 left in the quarter, he received the ball when the offensive time was approaching, although the opponent cut the ball, but Griffin picked up the ball and immediately shot, hit the whistle, and the Clippers exceeded 6-4.

After the Clippers led 8-5, the Grizzlies launched an 8-0 attack and Gasol Jr. scored four points in a row, and Gay immediately launched a fast break, and when he rushed to the basket, he was stopped by Foye, but Gay still hit a shot and scored three points with free throws, and the Grizzlies led 12-8. The Clippers hit a shot in the final 2:49 of the quarter to trail 16-25 in the first quarter.

It's the Clippers' last home game of the series, and if they win, they'll go to a tiebreaker, and if they lose, they'll go straight home fishing.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Paul relied on his personal ability, and scored 5 points in a row from the outside and inside, so that the Clippers fell behind 34-35, but the Grizzlies did not give a chance at all, Randolph forced the inside to make fouls, 2+1, and the Grizzlies maintained the lead.

Although Paul tried to close the gap to one point, Gasol Jr. made a layup and drew a foul on Butler, and after hitting a free throw, the Grizzlies ended the first half 42-38.

Butler was also wounded, but he kept fighting. Shortly after the start of the third quarter, the Clippers hit three-pointers and the Clippers continued to fight back. Halfway through the quarter, Griffin and Jordan scored baskets one after another, and Paul also hit a shot, and after hitting 6-0, the Clippers pulled the score to 60-60. With 1:49 left in the quarter, Butler hit another three-pointer to put the Clippers up 63-62.
