Chapter 16 Glory in Defeat

It was none other than Rasubatar, who came off the bench for the Clippers, who hit two three-pointers in a row, and then received Griffin's split jumper to tie the score instantly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At the critical moment, it was Nash again, first assisting Frye to score a three-pointer, and then hitting consecutive jumpers, bringing the suspense to the final minute until the end, Alsolton missed the shot, Griffinka drove Xiaosi to take the offensive rebound and scored a strong basket, but Grant Hill made a contribution at the critical moment, stealing Camby and assisting Smalls to dunk successfully.

The Clippers were unable to turn the tide in the final moments, Nash made a layup with 5.5 seconds left before the end, and Gordon's three-point iron in the final minute made the game completely over.

Nash scored 24 points and added eight assists on 9-of-15 shooting, while Jr. finished with 18 points and five rebounds on 6-of-9 shooting, and all five starters had double-doubles.

On the Clippers' side, Griffin scored a team-high 23 points and 14 rebounds on 10-of-15 shooting, including five offensive rebounds, leading the two teams, Carman came off the bench with 22 points and 9 rebounds, Camby added 8 to 12, Baron Davis had 12 points and 12 assists, Gordon had 16 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, and Butler off the bench scored 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting and 2-of-3 three-point shooting.

"Hey boy, I'll admit you're great, but that's not all I'm capable of, come on, look forward to fighting you next time!"

"Yes rookie, you played very well, maybe you can beat Ammar next time hahaha!" Nash made fun of his teammates and Griffin.

"Hey Kenny, it's not time for Kwanash and Suns, even if they win. The Clippers have made great progress this year, even if there are only 2 games, the game against the Lakers and Suns is only decided at the last moment, especially my little cute Griffin, which perfectly interprets the meaning of the word champion! I'm sure they're not going to stop, I'm going to have to get back to following Griffin's Twitter! ”

Griffin, who performed well, was interviewed on the field by Jennifer, a reporter for the Los Angeles Sports Daily, a blonde and blue-eyed choppy girl, and Griffin instantly felt that Caitlin's departure was not so difficult to accept.

"Hey Blake, you played really well tonight, you played as well against Stoudemire, one of the strongest forwards in the league, did you spot a hole in the Suns on the offensive end?"

"I don't think so, the Suns played really well, but my teammates have been helping me on the offensive end and on the defensive end, so I can get good statistics, we are very close to winning, and I am proud of my teammates."

After a few more words of painless interviewing, Griffin went back to the locker room to take a shower and change clothes, as Dunleavy asked Griffin to join him for the post-game press conference.

"Great fight, buddy, we're going to win!" Griffin was surprised that Gordon actually took the initiative to talk to him, and this player, who usually doesn't talk much, has actually been very serious.

He always tries his best to play on the court, maybe he doesn't have a high presence, but when you look at the stats after the game, you will see that he has won the full range of stats in obscurity.

Looking at the young player in front of him with a glint in his eyes, Griffin felt warm in his heart, and the two of them had a common hand-to-arm chest salute among black players.

This was Griffin's first time attending a press conference, so he still had some choices in clothing, and Griffin whimsical put on a set of bib pants, a pair of small European-style leather boots, and a round hat.

There is no doubt that this combination is full of refinement, not like the casual or pompous of ordinary NBA stars, but a sense of fashion, and the combination has successfully caused a wave of discussion among fans afterwards, and some people even say that it is the result of ex-girlfriend Caitlin.

But the media won't show mercy to you just because you're a first-time participant, and Griffin has already answered several sharp questions, such as "Did Xiao Si be blown up by you?" and "You could have won".

Fortunately, Griffin still has some Oriental humility in his heart, and he doesn't answer these questions as coolly as black people.

Clippers press officer Jimmy Katner, a UCLA graduate of the beautiful academic powerhouse, was reminded that the media interview came to an end.

"Well done Blake, you didn't get me in trouble!"

"Yes, the big beauty, after all, I also have the strength of a scholar!"

Of course, Griffin got Jimmy's white eyes.

There were as many as 12 NBA games that day, and the Cavaliers unexpectedly lost to the Raptors and suffered two consecutive defeats, and James won a triple-double with 23 plus 11 and 12 to no avail; The Magic took 76 people lightly, and the Warcraft 21 plus 15 in the sky blew up the old captain Brand; The Heat won easily against the Knicks, with Wade dominating the court 26 plus 5 plus 5; The Rockets narrowly defeated the Warriors 108-107, with Ariza, who was faintly the new core of the Rockets, contributing 25 points, Warrior Alice scoring 26 points, and rookie Curry scoring 14 points.

After the game, Griffin found out that his Twitter friend had one more Barkley, and found that Barkley had posted a prediction that Griffin would become a top star in the league in the near future.

Griffin was of course very happy, but he still pretended to be calm and did not forward it. DeRozan scored 8 points on 3-of-6 shooting in front of James and blamed himself on Twitter for his performance.

Griffin called to comfort him, now the Raptors are full of talent, Bosh and Bargnani on the inside, new signing Tekoglou on the outside, Belinelli on the bench, Jack is a strong player, DeRozan can start is already very good.

Although the team suffered two consecutive defeats, the team's vigor made the Los Angeles media quite tacitly not criticize the Clippers, and Simmons, who has been at odds with Griffin, and the San Francisco Sports News have not criticized Griffin recently.

However, the Clippers did not have it easy, and their next opponent, Jazz Eutha, was an away challenge, which meant they had to fly to this crazy religious highland city.

Before the game, the head coach had already let the players play, after all, this is the home of the famous devil in the league, and the Jazz's new generation of Utah twins is still notorious.

Griffin was very, very reluctant to play this game, because the moment he got off the plane, he hated the city of Utah, which did not have the bustle and the crowd of Los Angeles, but was replaced by a strong religious tradition and not a mild altitude sickness.

The game was played in such a rhythm, the Clippers were pressed to the ground by the Jazz all over the court, without a single lead, and the Clippers were firmly controlled by the Jazz from the first quarter.

However, Gordon and Davis performed well, scoring 22 and 21 points respectively, but if you look at the Clippers' interior stats, you can see the Jazz's defensive focus.

Carman had 11 points and 4 rebounds on 4-of-12 shooting, Camby had 12 points and 8 rebounds, and Blake Griffin was caught in hand-to-hand combat with Boozer and Millsap.

However, this is also the Clippers' most lethal weapon at the moment, as can be seen from Boozer's final six fouls, but even so, Boozer still contributed a double-double of 20 and 10.

Griffin finished with 15 points on 5-of-12 shooting and went along with 13 rebounds, including a game-high four rebounds. He also contributed a five-shot performance, Althoton's long-range shot failed to turn into a long rebound, Griffin took a step outside the box after controlling the offensive rebound, and the ill-prepared Boozer was solidly dunked.

Regardless of the outcome, the torturous road trip is finally over!
