The Lakers can't do without Chu Xuan, this is what everyone thinks after losing to the Pelicans.

Obviously, when the crisis of losing was pervasive, Chu Xuan's importance was finally highlighted.

In this case, the previous doubts about Chu Xuan were even more gone.

Moreover, given the struggling performance of the Lakers players in the days when Chu Xuan left, it is certain that Chu Xuan's voice is even more dense.

The Lakers can do without some players, but they can't do without Chu Xuan.

When the Lakers officially typed "Chu Xuan, welcome back!" The greatness continues! Chu Xuan's reputation had already risen to an unprecedented height.

Obviously, the loss says a lot.

And the most obvious problem is that these players of the Lakers are really not good if they leave Chu Xuan.

As a result, the argument that the Lakers have been able to achieve the results they are today can be overturned by relying on the roster to get better.

At the same time, there were also many voices criticizing some of the Lakers' players, accusing them of being disrespectful and questioning Chu Xuan some time ago, which obviously shouldn't be.

When public opinion arose and Chu Xuan's prestige was extremely high, some players led by Green had to stand up and speak, they all bowed their heads and invited Chu Xuan to come back.

Under such circumstances, everyone is looking forward to it, and obviously, the time that Chu Xuan said has come.

**********

Staples Center.

On the first day of Chu Xuan's return, before the start of the game between the Lakers and the Clippers, media reporters interviewed him.

"1 win, 3 losses, that's terrible, it's a nightmare, it's unbearable. But now that I'm back, it's time for everything to come to an end, and the victory will continue. ”

Chu Xuan's self-confidence triggered a carnival of Lakers fans, and they suddenly felt that when Chu Xuan was there, everything seemed to be so reassuring.

'To be able to come back to coaching, I want to say to my players that everybody goes through a lot of things. You can't always dwell on the past, you have to live in the present. Now, the goal for all of us is to win. ”

In fact, for the Lakers, losing to the Clippers would mean three consecutive defeats.

They will be on their longest losing streak of the season and will be hit with an unprecedented blow to their team's morale.

Therefore, now, they have no way out, and this game must be won.

Chu Xuan's victory declaration made everyone feel excited, and this team suddenly glowed with a look and style that had not been seen for a long time, and the confidence of the players also returned.

Obviously, Chu Xuan brought all this, and his importance was indescribable.

In fact, for Chu Xuan, the game against the Clippers was his first coaching game after his return, and it was a key game that everyone paid attention to.

It can be said that this is a righteous coaching, and it is also related to the morale of the Lakers.

Therefore, Chu Xuan understood that he could only win this game, otherwise, he would be sorry for his operation during this time.

But is it really that easy for the Clippers to get their hands on?

********

The Clippers have a 44-18 record this season, which ranks third in the West, behind the Lakers and Rockets.

Clearly, this team has had a great success this season and their squad setup makes them a great chance of contendering for the title.

And in the face of such a team, no team dares to underestimate it.

Today's match between two of the strongest teams in the Pacific Division and the Los Angeles City Derby is the most watched game in the NBA today.

The game will be broadcast live across the United States, and media outlets from many countries will also be able to broadcast it live.

It can be said that the sensation brought by today's ball is no less than a playoff battle of Tianwang Mountain or even a tie-breaker.

Under the frenzied attention boom, every point of the game is naturally infinitely magnified to expose.

Chu Xuan said wildly that he would definitely defeat the Clippers, which was naturally reported by the media.

When Doug Rivers heard this, he just shook his head and didn't respond.

Obviously, Rivers doesn't think the Lakers can beat the Clippers today.

And if the coach doesn't speak, it doesn't mean that the players don't speak.

In interviews, Paul, Griffin, and Barnes all said that they would let the Lakers swallow a three-game losing streak.

In response, the focus of the game rose again, and there was a faint smell of gunpowder.

And for the fans, their inner expectations for the game are naturally stronger.

Finally, it was time for the game to begin.

With a wave of Chu Xuan and Rivers' hands, the starting lineups of both sides began to appear.

Lakers: Nash, Jackson, Kobe, Noll, Whiteside.

Clippers: Paul, Crawford, Barnes, Griffin, Jordan Jr.

"Wow, the Lakers have changed lineups, which is a very rare occurrence this season. Chu Xuan put Draymond Green on the bench and replaced Reggie Jackson as the starter. Gasol, meanwhile, was also moved to the bench and then put on the Knoll and Whiteside twin tower combination. With such a lineup, what is Chu Xuan's purpose? ”

The discussion on the scene was endless, and the fans were undoubtedly the most puzzled by Chu Xuan's change of formation.

Doug Rivers pinched his waist and stood on the sidelines, and when he saw the Lakers' starting lineup, he couldn't help but be stunned, this is completely different from what he has been studying and preparing for.

While he did think about the Lakers changing the lineup, he really didn't expect it to be this lineup. Jackson and Nash form guards? Kobe Bryant playing the No. 3 position? And then the Twin Towers!

Could it be that Chu Xuan's purpose is to attack from the outside? Doug Rivers was extremely strange in his heart.

When he saw Chu Xuan's calm expression, Rivers couldn't help but feel even more nervous in his heart, he felt that Chu Xuan must have some plans.

However, the two sides have not yet fought, and Rivers can't figure out Chu Xuan's specific arrangements.

Therefore, Rivers had to hold back the doubts in his heart and watch the game on the court with cold eyes.

Jordan Jr. and Whiteside jumped the ball, and they were evenly matched.

In the end, though, it was Whiteside's long arm that took the advantage, and the Lakers grabbed the first offense.

On the first offense, Bryant tried to hit a mid-range shot, and the Lakers took the lead in opening the pot.

Then, the Clippers attacked, Crawford received a ball from Paul, fired a 45-degree shot from the left wing, and hit a three-point shot.

The first round between the two sides showed that both sides had a good hand.

Chu Xuan's arrangement is to play a pass and cut offense, focusing on Kobe, Noll and Nash. Judging from the first three minutes of the game, this arrangement paid off, with Knoll and Kobe Bryant scoring back-to-back points to open up a good game for the Lakers.

On the field, though, the situation changes instantaneously.

Rivers quickly made a change, he chose to focus on the perimeter, and Crawford used coquettish shooting to score a lot, putting a lot of pressure on the Lakers.

Soon, the scores of the two sides were tied again. (To be continued.) )
