Chapter 290: Against the Clippers
The Los Angeles derby has never been the focus of the crowd because they hardly have a super-strong quality at the same time. The city has never had an era of double power.
Now the Lakers have won the championship on the surface, but this is only expected. No one knows if after the start of the new season, Zhang Yi and others will be banned from fighting on the court again as they are now.
The corresponding Los Angeles Clippers are really not very interesting, and they can get a win rate of nearly 50% every year. The only thing worth mentioning is that they can get a win from the Golden State Warriors every season.
It's not really that they are in the position to win the league leader. But it is true that in the process of the Warriors winning five championships, they have fallen to Staples Arena in Los Angeles more than once.
Of course, they're not called Warrior finishers like the Sacramento Kings. Because the Clippers have never walked away with a win on the home court of the Golden State Warriors.
Today, Los Angeles becomes a night of basketball. Because including the LeBron family, the Kobe family, Wang Long and others all attended the game in a high-profile manner. It's like a Lakers, the pressure is all on the Clippers' side, and it's clear that this should be their home court.
Zhang Yi is too dazzling, plus Robert and Vali's three-star shines. The Clippers, who have only produced one All-Star player in recent years, have nothing to envy.
Because they have been competing for a playoff spot in the past few years, even if they get it, they are all seventh or eighth, and they are basically a round trip.
Neither getting good results nor getting a chance to get a good rookie is a vicious cycle that plagues the Clippers. As one of the poorest team owners in the league, the reason why he doesn't support the team's mess is entirely because of the fan market in Los Angeles, naively thinking that they can attract more attention by staying competitive.
But as everyone knows, in addition to selling a few more playoff tickets, their gains are far less than concentrating on messing around, and then getting a team core and then rebuilding.
It's just that not all teams can be as lucky as the Los Angeles Lakers. When Zhang Yi was needed, he drew the champion lottery, and then after one operation, he got the familiar brown bear Sanjie in his hands.
Thinking about the history of the Clippers' bad swing, the embarrassing record of 17 wins is still imprinted in everyone's mind, but they obviously don't have the luck of the Lakers.
The same owners of Staples Arena, the same professional basketball team in Los Angeles, this is the so-called doujin different life!
And tonight may be the last time the Los Angeles Clippers will enjoy their home court, because when Zhang Yi plays to lead the Lakers to a championship, how can Staples still have many Clippers fans......
In fact, from now on, there will be far more spectators wearing purple and gold jerseys than Clippers jerseys. The Los Angeles Clippers went down to the owners and players knew they were late and had to get used to it.
It's so tragic to share a resource with a legendary team. The Clippers' pain may be incomprehensible.
Before the game started, when the on-site commentator found James and Kobe Bryant for an interview, it had already entered carnival mode, and all Lakers fans seemed to have returned to the glory days when the Los Angeles Lakers kept winning championships.
Although no matter how Zhang Yi plays now, he cannot replace the OK group, or the sister-in-law group, or the Zhan Huang All-Star era. But with the brothers Robert and Vali to help, there is still a lot to look forward to.
By the time Zhang Yi took the court, the three-match ban had undiminished his popularity, and he even had more fans on social media as the hero of boxing garbage player Franks.
The crazy Staples fans tonight proved it. Kobe Bryant and James were secretly amazed by Zhang Yi's popularity. After all, this kid hasn't played a regular season game, which is crazy.
Standing in the center of the court, when Zhang Yi stretched out his fist, almost the entire audience followed him with his fist. Especially for many Chinese audiences, Zhang Yi's toughness represents their hearts.
After the start of the game, although the Clippers did not send an all-out main lineup, they were regular starters at the three positions of center, small forward and point guard.
Clippers head coach Nande was trying to squeeze them out, and all three were more or less distracted by off-court factors, so it was theoretically impossible to get into the rhythm of the game anytime soon.
But he thought a little too much, Vali bravely won the ball from the 2.12 meter center, and Robert directly found Zhang Yi who was quick and fast attacking, only to see that their cooperation was like two gear cards again, tightly fitted, not giving the opponent a chance!
Facing the Clippers' main small forward, Zhang Yi, who was suspended for three games, had no intention of slowing down at all. I saw him stride directly towards the opponent, and only when his body was about to collide with each other, he stunned everyone with a flowing back turn!
"Damn, why is it moving so fast?" The opponent is just turning his head, and Zhang Yi has already flown to pick up a layup.
After scoring two points, Zhang Yi landed steadily, enjoying the cheers of all the fans, leaving only a confused opponent, thinking to himself Is this guy really just a rookie?
The Clippers head coach made a major presence in all three positions, which was quickly proven to be the wrong choice by the Lakers' performance. Gao Gao Feng couldn't eat Vali. There is a clear difference in height and weight between the two, but there is no visible difference in strength.
Especially in terms of technique, WALL-E's anti-back-to-back skills are clearly tougher than the opponent's offensive methods. After a failed single, he had to pass the ball back to the outside point guard.
At this time, it was the Clippers quarterback who reached for the ball, and it was clear that Robert didn't give him a chance to catch the ball at all. If the Clippers' offense is like a troika, then once the two wheels are thrown off and only the small front is left, Zhang Yi's presence directly kills their only remaining scoring opportunity.
In the first round of the opening game, there was no mutual temptation, no habitual style of play, and the Clippers were defended for 24 seconds as soon as they came up, which was really beyond everyone's expectations.
And this is just the beginning, it is obvious that Zhang Yi has been held back for three games, and all his strength is used to play the Clippers. I saw him use the guard's speed to advance with the ball, and when facing the defender at the top of the three-point arc, he first threw it away directly with the Crossover, and then shook the second and third defenders in a change of hands......
When Zhang Yi jumped up, the Clippers center in the lineup also roared and jumped up, but his jump speed was a little slow, Zhang Yi had already flown in front of him, and the opponent's hand had just been raised......
"Let me in!" I only heard Zhang Yi roar angrily, and smashed the basketball into the basket with one palm! As the Clippers center landed with his head on the ground, Zhang Yi's body grabbed the basket and raised it high, and the audience screamed......
"Cool, this kid is the same as I was back then!" Kobe Bryant shouted excitedly. "Zhang Yi, this guy has become stronger again!"
