When Bickerstaff's defensive strategy lost Liu Ren as a central figure, the irritation for Crawford seemed to be self-defeating. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Bickerstaff leaned back in his chair and looked at the situation on the field expressionlessly, as for whether he was in a hurry? He is really not in a hurry at all, it is up to man to make things happen, everything he has done has been proven to be effective, as for Liu Ren's foul, this is not under his control.

It's the same with D'Antoni, it's hard to say what the bench can play, anyway, there will be starters for a while.

After playing a few balls in a row, Nick Young didn't score because of two consecutive goals, D'Antoni immediately replaced him, and he had played seven minutes in the second quarter to continue the rotation.

Jeremy Lin replaced Nick Young, McCollum returned to the shooting guard position, Antetokounmpo went up to the small forward, and Green replaced Henry at the power forward position.

Since the special tactics can no longer continue, D'Antoni waved his hand and played according to the regular style of play!

If the special strategy fails, then hard steel! D'Antoni is confident that his team will not lose to anyone!

The Lakers' interior core this season has slowly transitioned from Gasol to Green!

Green is a good fit for players like Duncan and Garnett to pick and roll off the ball in the high post.

Green responded with the ball in the high post, pinned down an interior defense, and then passed to Whiteside in the high and low posts.

Whiteside received the ball inside, held it high, and took a step to resist Jordan Jr.'s long-arm dunk.

The Clippers' offense is fierce, and without Liu Ren, the outside gate, Crawford is like no one, and no one on the Lakers' side can limit this singles king.

Fortunately, Whiteside is on fire and the Clippers are around, D'Antoni never wanted to use such a physically gifted big man as a defensive blue-collar all the time, and Whiteside's high-flying touch is quite good on the inside, which is completely worth developing.

Whiteside has always been very confident in himself, and he is also very confident in playing, blowing up Jordan Jr. again, and playing a certain effect in the half quarter of resisting the Clippers' counterattack.

At the end of the second quarter, Whiteside scored 9 points and 4 rebounds on 4-of-66 shooting, and the Lakers led by four points 67-63 into the second half quarter.

was finally able to return to the court, Liu Ren watched the opponent's attack so fluid, if it wasn't for Whiteside and Green's clever cooperation, he would have been overtaken!

But I can only sit on the sidelines, it's uncomfortable!

Back on the court, Liu Ren gave Jordan Jr. a big hat on the first ball, pinned Jordan Jr.'s layup to the rebound, and scored two points on a counterattack dunk.

Paul was still on the bench at this time, and he had a few minutes of rest in the second and third quarters, and the first half of the quarter was still a time to rotate the lineup, especially for the strong teams, because the real strong teams almost always relied on a wave of substitutes to pull away the score.

In the past few minutes, Liu Ren took McCollum, Bazemore, Nick Young, and Thackeray to play off the bench, Liu Ren went to the power forward position, and relied on Liu Ren's personal ability to shoot out and shoot a wave of 8-0 scoring shockwaves, once again stretching the difference to more than 10 points, leading by 12 points at 75-63.

Jordan Jr. took Farmar and Rivers' rookie sons Rivers Jr., Tekoglu, and Barnes and several substitutes were blown up by Liu Ren alone. Rivers rushed to replace Paul, Crawford and others on the court.

When Bickerstaff saw Crawford playing, he immediately replaced Nick Young, who had recovered his strength, just to stimulate Crawford.

Sure enough, when Nick Young, who returned full of blood, faced Jordan Jr. and Turkoglu and hit a pull-up layup, Crawford held the ball like a dynamite bag and burst inside, relying on Whiteside to force a pull-up shot.

But Whiteside is quite good at learning, and after a few more such situations, he learns to be obedient, no longer pounces, but waits for the other party to pass the test, and then jumps up and distracts at the moment when Crawford makes a move.

Crawfordra missed a layup, Liu Ren grabbed the rebound, and suddenly, the referee's whistle blew.

Liu Ren was stunned for a moment, and the shooting foul? Yes, it is possible that the referee will blow the penalty like this, Whiteside did have contact with Crawford, although Whiteside jumped up directly, but Crawford had more whistles, and Whiteside immediately raised his hand, and he also thought that he had fouled.

But when Liu Ren saw the referee pointing at him, he immediately burst into a foul language, still in Chinese, when did he foul? That's three offenses!

Suddenly, Liu Ren saw that it was Crawford who fell to the ground!

Did I knock him over? Liu Ren was recalling when he bumped Crawford, but he was not impressed at all.

Slow-motion replay on the big screen, one point of NBA professionalism is here, no matter who the foul blown by the referee is biased towards, the slow motion of the foul will be played on the spot.

Seeing the slow-motion replay scene, there was a boo, only to see that Liu Ren didn't touch Crawford at all in the slow-motion replay on the big screen, and Crawford himself made a hit action and fell to the ground, fake falling!

Watching Crawford being pulled up by his teammates, Liu Ren smiled helplessly, there was no way to get angry, the referee's blowing penalty would not change, not to mention that this is the home court of the Clippers, and the blowing penalty was originally biased towards the Clippers.

At most, Crawford was fined for faking a fall after the game, but he had already committed 4 crimes!

Their fake-throwing people don't care about the penalty at all, and if they win, they make anything compared to that fine.

Liu Ren was substituted, the Lakers and Clippers started a regular battle, Green replaced Liu Ren, and under his organization, McCollum, Whiteside, Nick Young, and Bazemore scored four consecutive points.

Crawford's breakaway layup and crossover pullup jumper went on a rampage that disrupted the Lakers' defense.

Without Liu Ren's outside interception, the Lakers' inside line has become Crawford's back garden, and after Paul came on the court, the Lakers' outside line became even more miserable, Jordan Jr. and Whiteside rebounded comparably, Whiteside could still suppress Jordan Jr. on the offensive end, but Griffin had no one to stop him, there was originally Liu Ren, a ubiquitous co-defender, Griffin's mid-to-close shooting became constrained, and now he is completely let go.

Nick Young was very capable of playing alone, but after seven or eight minutes against the Clippers, his efficiency began to decline, and Bickerstaff had to replace him again, and Nick Young had scored 21 points in just 12 minutes of playing time.

The Clippers unleashed a wave of offensive attacks before the end of the third quarter to put the score in place, 89-91, and the Lakers trailed by two points.

The problems that were not exposed before have all been exposed, Liu Ren has been the Lakers with the most playing time last season, and he has hardly encountered a foul crisis, and without him, the shortcomings of the Lakers' weak outside defense have been exposed at once.
