On the second day after the Lakers won the Clippers, the Warriors faced the Spurs who reversed the Timberwolves to advance, and the outside world generally believed that this would be a close game, and even many fans believed that the Spurs were in the best state of morale and condition after a 1-3 reversal, and even eliminated the Warriors.

But the result came out as a big surprise, the Warriors were on fire at home, and the whole court was absolutely suppressed, and finally beat the Spurs by 20 points to win the first victory.

Coincidentally, the Cavaliers also defeated the Bulls by a huge 20 points in the opening game of the semifinals.

The Bulls have always given the impression of being a tough opponent, the kind of opponent who will let you peel off the skin even if you win, but this time, even with Wade in charge, it still looks powerless against the Cavaliers.

The three championship contenders have all shown outstanding strength, making this year's championship ownership even more confusing.

The series between the Lakers and Clippers continues.

In the next two and third games, the Clippers performed very similarly to the first game, both of which were deadlocked in the first three quarters, but in the final quarter, when the Lakers' Big Three worked together, they were slowly pulled away and then lost the game.

This is actually a reflection of the strength of the two sides, the Clippers are not bad on paper, so they can be on par with the Lakers for most of the time, but when it comes to the decisive moment of really fighting for individual ability, only Paul can stabilize the output, and it is still quite difficult to fight against the Lakers with the Big Three.

That didn't change until the fourth game.

After losing two away games plus one home court, the Clippers are already down 0-3 in the overall score, and they have been pushed to the edge of the cliff in Game 4, and if they lose this game, they will be swept directly by the Lakers.

In the first three quarters, Paul contributed 38 points, Jordan Jr. grabbed 20 rebounds, and the two cores played well, the Clippers led the Lakers by double-digit points at the end of the third quarter for the first time.

“…… Focus, we need more focus, understand? On the Lakers' bench, Billups yelled at the players.

After the tactics were arranged and the players were ready to play, he suddenly changed his attention and temporarily replaced Grant with Tang Shuai.

Before going on the court, he pulled Tang Shuai and said, "Tang, it's time for you to stand up." ”

Tang Shuai nodded.

After coming up, the Lakers' offense, Tang Shuai advanced to the frontcourt, did not find opportunities for his teammates like in the first three quarters, and after giving the ball to Stephenson, he wanted to stay in the low post, and then signaled to give the ball.

Stephenson motioned for the others to open up space and then gave the ball in.

After Tang Shuai received the ball, he looked back at the intention of the fleet without a clamp, and directly chose to play with his back when he leaned on Booker.

Booker, the former little brother, was under pressure in the face of Tang Shuai, and he suffered a loss in strength, and after being pushed twice and almost falling to the ground, he suddenly looked a little like a headless fly.

Tang Shuai seized the opportunity and threw a right-turning back.

With a "bang", the textbook-like shot hit steadily.

The Clippers' offense, Louis Williams scored on a breakaway with a beautiful shake past Stephenson for a layup.

The score sent fans on the sidelines cheering with excitement.

The Lakers' offense, Tang Shuai also forced the basket, but what was more thorough than Williams was that after he turned around Booker, he directly dunked with both hands, which instantly suppressed the audience's emotions.

Looking back, Williams wanted to continue to renew the Clippers, but this time he was seized by Tang Shuai as soon as he started, and after a beautiful steal, Tang Shuai rode to the frontcourt, which was directly a one-handed dunk in the free throw line.

Cassel hurriedly called a timeout, and Tang Shuai scored 6 points in an instant, a rhythm he was too familiar with.

After the pause, Cassel put Paul and Jordan Jr. in advance, and it seemed that he was ready to press Tang Shuai.

After coming back, the Clippers attacked first, Paul held the ball to press the rhythm, beckoned Jordan Jr. to block and dismantle, and a beautiful sideways jump shot continued to hit.

After the ball was scored, Paul's data for the game was played on the LED screen at the scene, with 16 of 26 shots, 40 points, 8 assists and 2 steals, and the score was his new high in this year's playoffs.

At the age of 33, he was able to score 40 points, which is definitely a reversal.

However, everyone knows that Paul is really cornered, otherwise as a traditional defender who takes passing as the first choice, he rarely shoots as crazy as he did today.

When Tang Shuai took the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, Paul changed his defense, looking at the familiar figure in front of him, his mood fluctuated somewhat, after all, he had been a teammate for a year, and Paul was also the defender who had the greatest influence on him.

At this moment, Paul quickly cut off the ball in his hand, and then quickly advanced to the front court to score a layup.

was cut off a goal, Tang Shuai also came back to his senses, he looked up at the score above his head, the team was still 12 points behind, and he felt that it would hurt the whole team.

With this awareness, he also became completely serious.

Although he said that he was fighting well, he still had some strength left, and now he is really serious, with his strength, it is still quite terrifying.

After regaining the ball in the front court, he glanced at Paul in front of him and directly chose to make a strong attack.

Paul used his experience to hold the defensive position, trying to make tackles and retreating inside.

Tang Shuai didn't care about it at this time, and after hitting the inside line, he made a sudden stop, and after Paul pounced, he directly threw a shot after turning around.

With a "bang", he threw a steady hit, which officially kicked off his rampage.

After turning around, the Clippers still handed Paul to play, Jordan Jr. put up a block, and Paul seized the opportunity to shoot.

But this time, Tang Shuai went around behind Little Jordan in advance, and when he was about to make a move, he pressed up without saying a word.

Paul didn't have a chance to shoot, passed the ball to Ingram and ran again.

However, before he could run, he found that after Tang Shuai and Mike Dermott switched defenses, they had already cut off the ball in Ingram's hand.

The Lakers launched a fast attack, and Tang Shuai threw the ball to the fast Westbrook, who quickly hit the frontcourt, and a fierce tiger smashed the ball into the basket like a strong dunk down the mountain.

This is just the beginning, Paul forced the basket, encountered Cousins' delay, shook off and wanted to go to the basket, but Tang Shuai didn't know where to run, and directly slapped his shot after killing.

The basketball was slapped into Yi Jian's team, and Yi Jian's team was teamed up to Westbrook, who accelerated to the basket, and after encountering Ingram's defense, a backward and earth gave Tang Shuai to follow up quickly.

Tang Shuai received the ball at a step inside the free throw line, and after jumping, it was directly a long-distance slam dunk score.

The ball was dunked very hard, and when the UFO dunk bag was fully stimulated, the entire basket shook with a while, causing a burst of restlessness from the audience on the sidelines.

4 points, 1 steal and 1 block, everyone can see that Tang Shuai is really serious.

Paul hit a long-range three-pointer to re-escalate the score to nine points.

However, before this score could be digested, Tang Shuai arrived in the frontcourt, and after the three-point line deceived Randle with Yi Jianlian's fake pass, he suddenly started to shoot three-pointers.

"Huh!"

With a crisp sound, the three-point shooter rose and fell, and Tang Shuai responded directly to Paul's three-point shot.

That's not all, when the Clippers' offense was guarded by the Lakers, Tang Shuai went to the front court and ran to the bottom line outside the three-point line on the right wing, and received a pass from Westbrook and hit a three-point shot.

One for two, after two three-point responses in a row, the Lakers instantly chased the difference to 3 points.

The mood of the fans at the scene is quite mixed, this is the home of the Clippers, but most of the Clippers fans are also fans of Tang Shuai.

Cassel called another timeout, and when he came off the court, Paul seemed unhappy with his teammate's defense and punched the bench directly.

After the timeout, Paul once again forced the inside and almost carried Cousins to score on a layup.

However, looking back, Tang Shuai rushed to the basket and also carried Randle to score a layup, and also caused the latter's beater to foul.

Paul's anger made the Clippers' defense a lot tougher, but he couldn't control it, and the foul followed.

After Tang Shuai steadily hit the free throw, he has helped the Lakers close the score to 2 points.

Paul was a little anxious, and he shot straight from beyond the three-point line, but this time he was a little unlucky and jumped out of the basket.

When the Lakers advanced to the frontcourt, Tang Shuai burst into the perimeter Mike Dermott, who opened his hand and hit a three-point shot.

With a "bang", the Lakers overtook the score so calmly.

This three-point shot also completely broke the morale of the Clippers, and after the two sides returned to the main force, the Lakers directly played a wave of 9-0 scoring climax, winning the final game 122-117, thus sweeping the Clippers with a score of 4-0 to enter the Western Conference Finals.

Paul played a full 40 minutes in this game, and he contributed the whole game on 20-of-38 shooting, which was also a career-high 49 points, setting a new personal scoring record at the age of 33, which is estimated to be an unprecedented feat, but such a performance still failed to help the team win a game.

When the final whistle blew, Paul and the back of his "No. 3" jersey had a feeling of overlapping with Iverson. (To be continued.) )
