Chapter 316 Attacking Clippers, locking the first place in the league
When the referee blew the whistle to signal that the players of both sides were on the court, the morale of the Kings players and before the timeout still changed significantly, and Udri steadily advanced the ball to the front court, not rushing to pass or attack, but controlling the ball in his own hands to signal the whole team to suppress the rhythm.
Brad Miller raised a step up to cover for Udri, and after Udri went in with a cover, a return pass put the ball into Brad Miller's hands, and Tyson Chandler failed to follow Miller in time, and the old Miller received a return pass and retreated from the three-point line at the top of the arc, and slowly threw the ball out, and it was too late when Gu Fei pounced.
swish
With a three-point shot, Miller Sr. broke the Kings' four-minute scoring drought, and the Arco Arena resounded with enthusiastic cheers, and Miller, who will play a good role in the center, has developed three-point ability in recent years, and now it is working again.
With this three-point shot, the Chinese Kings stretched the difference to 18 points.
Seeing Old Miller slowly hitting the three-point line in his sight, Gu Fei was naturally unhappy.
Offensive and defensive switch, Andre Miller quickly came to the front court with the dribble, and handed the ball to Gu Fei who asked for the ball again, and standing in front of Gu Fei was Sheldon Williams, the No. 5 pick in 06 has not been able to play his own value, and is known as a parallel product, but it is undeniable that his defense and rebounding are still very good, pressing the center of gravity to face Gu Fei who dribbles, as if facing a big enemy.
Although he changed to a defender, Gu Fei still chose to break through, breaking through the continuous cross steps to test Williams's defensive nerves, and suddenly changed to a pull ball and turned around to throw Williams behind, and the defenders obviously hesitated, it was obvious that Gu Fei's continuous attraction of defensive assists in the first few minutes made them a little worried, Gu Fei would not be polite, since no one made up the defense, he directly made a stop-and-go jump shot.
The basketball lived up to his expectations and got into the basket cleanly.
The Kings didn't dwell on their defensive failures, but served quickly and organized a counterattack.
Udri quickly pushed the ball into the front court like a pioneer, almost the same as the routine just now, Brad Miller pulled up again to cover the ball, this time Gu Fei did not give Miller a chance to shoot, but Brad Miller showed the strength of what it means to respond to the center, and a hit was given to the hands of Salmenguez who cut in.
Salmengs received the ball and went straight to the basket, but Tyson Chandler appeared in time and slapped the ball down, Gu Fei judged the landing point to protect the rebound first, and immediately launched a counterattack.
Sheldon-Williams slid in front of Gu Fei, Gu Fei pulled the ball to his left hand, and the whole person directly threw Williams behind him without the slightest slowdown, and killed the front court alone.
And the Kings only had Yudri to defend in time, looking at Gu Fei who came at high speed, Yudri opened his arms and stood one step inside the three-point line.
Glancing at Yudri's position, Gu Fei had already come to a place two steps away from the three-point line, and still did not slow down, which had to make Yudri nervous, and Gu Fei, who rushed at high speed, gave him the most direct feeling that it was a speeding train.
But Gu Fei had no intention of breaking through, but made an emergency stop.
Ugh
The soul generation under his feet and the floor formed a piercing friction sound, and Gu Fei's body braked a step away from the three-point line, and jumped directly to throw the ball.
By the time it was too late, Yudri could only watch the basketball fly over his head towards the basket behind him.
swish
The basketball went into the net, disappointing Udri, who turned and rushed inside to grab the rebound.
With Gu Fei's fast-break three-pointer, the Los Angeles Clippers further narrowed the gap to 13 points.
The next few offenses went back and forth to maintain a balance between the two sides, and the third quarter was imperceptibly in the final two minutes, when the Clippers were still trailing by 13 points, and closing the gap to within 10 points was a top priority for the Clippers.
After the Kings hit another offensive iron, Chandler grabbed the rebound and quickly passed the ball to Andre Miller, and the Clippers' counterattack formed again.
Gu Fei and Andre Miller formed a fast-break impact, while the Kings switched from offense to defense with only Youdri and Salmens returning in time.
2vs2, the Kings fans at Arco Arena cheered for Yudri and Salmenguez with their own voices, and it was always the attacker who had the advantage in the basketball game, and the retreating Yudri and Salmenguez could only interfere with their respective defenders as much as possible.
Just when Salmenguez was about to stick to Gu Fei, a shaking in Gu Fei's running changed direction and accelerated, and directly staged an overtaking scene, and when Salmengus was shocked, Andre Miller threw the ball directly into the air without hesitation.
syllable
There was a loud bang in the basket, and Gu Fei grabbed the basket with both hands and swung the swing.
"The speed of the beautiful aerial relay Gu made the Salmenguez defense instantly a hole."
As the Clippers further narrowed the gap with this aerial relay, the morale-boosting Clippers tested the Kings' weak defense with wave after wave of offense, and the Kings, who relied on their hands to maintain offensive firepower, dropped significantly under the Clippers' defense.
When the game came to the fourth quarter with five minutes left, Gu Fei hit a basket on Brad Miller and caused Miller to foul, and the Clippers, who trailed by as many as 28 points with the free throws, officially tied it.
Although there were seven minutes to go, most of the more than 10,000 fans at the Arco Arena knew in their hearts that the victory that should have been in their pockets was completely away from them.
"The unimaginable Los Angeles Clippers, the whole team burst out in the second half with great fighting power, and the Clippers in the first half are completely two teams, the game ended in such a situation I don't think the king in the first half could not have imagined, but the truth is so cruel. After this game, the Los Angeles Clippers will scare every team in the league. In the midst of the commentator's voice, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
98:110, the Kings, who scored 62 points in the first half, only scored 36 points in the second half, and Gu Fei, who scored 35 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, became the most valuable player in the game.
Then the Los Angeles Clippers relied on the huge combat power that broke out in the game with the Kings, sitting at home Staples to meet the New Orleans Hornets who came to the door, more than two hours later, more than 20,000 Staples fans showed a satisfied smile on their faces 110:95, the Clippers won a 15-point victory, Gu Fei got the fifth triple-double of his career, 26 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, and in addition to Gu Fei, the most outstanding performance is undoubtedly Noah, who returned to the bench from the starter.
When McRoberts adapted to the Clippers and became the starter, Noah became a jack-of-all-trades on the bench, averaging a lot of playing time per game, and this game was super efficient, 8 of 8 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, the Clippers' second-highest score of 20 points, as well as 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 5 blocks, 3 steals, and almost completed the legendary 5*5 data.
Noah's excellent form is undoubtedly great news for the Clippers, after all, in addition to the competition between the starting lineups, the bench lineup is undoubtedly important.
The next Clippers who continue to sit at home meet the challenge of the Memphis Grizzlies, the Grizzlies' interior Zach Randolph and Mark Gasol once again dominated the interior, Randolph played a big double-double of 30 points and 17 rebounds, and Mark Gasol sent 17 points, 14 rebounds and 6 blocks, because Mark Gasol's performance is getting better and better, which directly leads to many people thinking that the Grizzlies sent Paul Gasol's transaction in the direction of not being brainless, although the interior performance is against the sky, but the Grizzlies still failed to take away the victory, Relying on Gu Fei's 6 three-pointers and the excellent play of JR Smith and Stephen Novak off the bench, the Clippers narrowly defeated the Grizzlies by 1 point, and the Clippers' victory guarantee came from the fatal block sent by Tyson Chandler at the final critical moment of the whole game, which officially killed the Grizzlies' hope of victory, and he helped the team win in his own way.
With that win, the Los Angeles Clippers claimed their 60th win of the season, four games ahead of the league's second-place Cleveland Cavaliers, who had 11 games left and the Cavaliers 10 games remaining.
On March 25, the Los Angeles Clippers, the first in the West, challenged the San Antonio Spurs, the third in the West, away from home, and this game was broadcast live to the whole United States. In the first quarter, the Clippers led by Gu Fei and took a 7-point lead, but in the second quarter, the Spurs overtook the score in the unsolvable offense of the Super Sixth Man, Ginobili, and then Tim Duncan once again showed his super strength of Shi Fo, and finally lost with Gu Fei's three-point whistle miss the Clippers 3 points, but the Cavaliers who faced the Boston Celtics in the East also did not win, and Ray Allen's fatal three-point let the Celtics take away the victory from the quick loan center.
After the loss, the Los Angeles Clippers set sail again from the Mavericks, beating the Dallas Mavericks by 18 points, the Houston Rockets by 17 points, the Golden State Warriors by 18 points, Gu Fei beat the Washington Wizards with three points, and the Clippers, who won four in a row, extended their lead over the Lakers to 7 games, and completely locked the first place in the West with the Lakers with 6 games left, and then the Clippers continued to attack the first in the league, and Tyson Chandler used 20 rebounds and 7 blocks to create a Clippers no-fly zone when he visited Charlotte back-to-back, In the end, the Clippers defeated the Bobcats by 8 points, and improved their record to 65 games with a wave of five consecutive wins.
The Cavaliers lost another game on the way to the Clippers' five-game winning streak, 4 wins behind the Clippers, and on April 3, the last leg of the three-game Magic trip in Orlando, the Monster Dwight Howard defended his dominance of the interior, but the poor play of Mr. Billion and Nelson made Howard useless, and at the same time in Toronto, the weak team Raptors and the first Cavaliers in the East, the Dragon King Bosh single-handedly pulled the Eastern Boss Cavaliers off the horse, It also sent the Los Angeles Clippers to the first place in the league.
