Back in the second quarter, Hayward was substituted.

When Tang Shuai saw this scene, he immediately knew that the opportunity was coming, and as soon as he came up, after he gave the ball to Stephenson, he ran to the low position to get the ball.

If you want to say that when he played last game, he used it once in the NBDL for most of the month, and now that Hayward is not on the court, he has to use it a few times.

Defending him at this point is Trey. Burke, last year's first-round pick, was five centimeters shorter than Tang Shuai.

After Tang Shuai received the ball, he leaned in, waited to see that the position was almost there, and directly used his strength to eat under the basket, and then easily put the basket to score 2 points.

Without Hayward, the Jazz's offense on the court is like a headless fly, this side Burks just wanted to pass the ball to Burke, Stephenson was quick, rushed out and cut off the ball, and then handed it to Tang Shuai, Tang Shuai rushed to the front court to take down the fast break and scored 2 points.

Jazz coach Quinn. Snyder saw that the momentum was not right, and hurriedly replaced Favors in advance.

Favors came up and helped the Jazz a lot on the offensive end, and he played Smith's solid basket skills to score consecutive points.

But on the other hand, on the defensive end, Smith shot to the three-point line, Tang Shuai broke through the ball, and after Smith raised his hand to hit a three-point shot, he screamed excitedly.

After defending against a wave of Jazz offense, Tang Shuai hit another three-pointer this time.

The crowd cheered excitedly, and the Jazz were forced to call a timeout, and in just a few minutes of Hayward's down, the Jazz trailed by 20 points from 11 points.

"Don, well done!" Paul came up and gave him a high-five. Since Tang Shuai came back, the mental outlook of the whole team has been completely changed.

Pause back. The Jazz immediately brought on Hayward, who was still playing well. However, the rest of the Jazz team was too strong to be able to do so, and by the end of the third quarter, the team's trailing score was further stretched to 25 points.

In the final quarter, Snyder saw that there was no hope of victory, so he simply replaced the team's fringe players at the beginning and announced the end of the game early.

At 120:98, the Clippers ushered in a big win at home after the previous game against the Pacers.

Although Hayward did his best to cut a high score of 36 points. But it was difficult to stand alone, and in the end he could not lead the team to victory.

The Clippers had six players score in double figures, and the main players only played 20 minutes, and four of the starters except Jordan Jr. scored in double figures.

On the bench, Tang Shuai played the most minutes and scored the most, scoring a team-high 22 points on 8-of-15 shooting. plus 3 rebounds and 2 assists, facing a weak team like the Jazz, the rhythm seems to have returned to when he played in the NBDL, which can be regarded as a superstar in the NBA.

The game is over. Tang Shuai and his teammates returned to the locker room with a smile and a smile.

But when they got back to the locker room, they realized that something wasn't quite right.

Normally, this team wins big, and the dressing room must have been crowded with reporters for a long time. But this time, there were only a few reporters, and they were all faces that they had never seen before. It looks like I just came here for an internship.

"What's going on?" Tang Shuai looked at Stephenson suspiciously, when he won against the Pacers the day before yesterday. The reporters are all together, even if the opponent is weak today, but after the big victory, there will not be such a big difference, right? Although it doesn't mean anything to say whether there is a reporter to interview or not, this strange change still makes him very curious.

"I don't know, whatever, let's go take a shower first!" Stephenson didn't care that much, and walked inside with a big grin.

Tang Shuai also put away his curiosity for the time being, and followed Stephenson into the shower.

Because it was a big win, the locker room was naturally noisy.

Tang Shuai came out after washing and joked with Stephenson for a while, changed his clothes and was about to leave with his bag.

At this moment, the intern reporters outside the door went in and saw him, and then walked over.

The leader was a white reporter, who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, walked up to him, and said with a nervous face: "Hello Tang, we are reporters from FOX Sports, do you have time to be interviewed by us now?" ”

These reporters are not like those old fritters who were caught and asked questions just after the game, and they all lowered their posture when they spoke, and they seemed to be really intern reporters.

Tang Shuai didn't want to be embarrassed, nodded, sat on the stool in front of the cabinet, and then accepted an interview with these reporters.

After the interview, Tang Shuai asked these people, only to know that this was their first time interviewing, no wonder they were so restrained, this is not just an intern reporter, this is a real rookie.

However, it can be seen that these reporters are in a very good mood, probably because they didn't expect to meet such a good-tempered player as Tang Shuai in the first interview.

"Thank you, thank you very much for your time." The white reporter named Cooks thanked him vigorously after the interview.

Tang Shuai looked at him, remembered this unusual phenomenon, and then asked, "What about those people you FOX came to interview before, why didn't you see them today?" Have all collectively jumped ship? ”

"Haha, Don, you're so humorous, how could you possibly jump ship en masse, they're all in the Lakers' locker room right now." Cooks was frank enough to say directly.

"Lakers locker room, there's a game today?" Tang Shuai looked at Kux suspiciously.

"Hey, hey! Do you FOX don't want to go into our locker room in the future, and even send some rookies over, do you make it clear that you look down on us? Smith's wardrobe was next to Tang Shuai, and he was also sitting next to each other at this time, and when he heard Cooks' words, he suddenly stood up and said with some displeasure.

Tang Shuai also looked at Cooks suspiciously, if this is really like what he said, there was no game today, and those reporters still went to the Lakers locker room, but sent a few rookies to them, this is related to the team's honor, and it really needs to be taught some lessons.

"No, that's not what it means......" Cooks said with a quick wave of his hand when he saw that Smith was angry.

"Not? What does that mean? You made it clear. Smith stood up from his stool and said menacingly.

"Hey, Josh, don't get so excited." Pierce walked over to Smith and said a word.

Pierce spoke, and Smith didn't say anything more, and sat back in his seat, but looked at Cooks with an angry look on his face.

Cooks looked anxious, and it seemed that he was really panicked.

"Tell me, is there something big going on with the Lakers?" After all, Pierce is a veteran of the alliance for many years, and asked in a kind tone.

Cooks' face was a little better, he took a deep breath to ease the tension, and then said: "An hour or two ago, Kobe Bryant wrote an article on the player forum, stating that this is the last season of his basketball career, Kobe Bryant came to the locker room half an hour to pick up something, and all the reporters who were originally waiting here have passed. ”

"The last season? You mean...... Kobe Bryant's guy is retiring?! Pierce looked at Cooks in surprise, the veteran who had twice played against Kobe Bryant in the Finals, finally lost his former composure after hearing the news of Kobe's retirement.
