Chapter 303: Finished Abuse
Wang Cannon's style of play completely caught the Lakers by surprise, and it seemed that most of the offense was completed by stealing leaks, but his efficiency was so high.
When the first quarter of the game ended, people were stunned to find that Wang Cannon's shooting rate was an astonishing 100 percent, hitting all four offenses and scoring 9 points, and because Wang Cannon attracted the Lakers' key defense, the other players of the Clippers scored not low.
In the first quarter of the game, the Clippers led the Lakers by as many as 18 points at 28:10, which was still because Kobe Bryant took over the offensive power, otherwise the gap would have been even greater.
Such a one-sided situation was unexpected by everyone, originally thought that the Big Three Clippers and F4 Lakers would meet, it would be a dragon fight, but the current situation is that the Clippers pressed the Lakers' head for a fat beating, and the Lakers had the heart to fight back, but they were beaten by the Clippers and were unable to parry, so they could only cover their heads and be beaten.
It's quite a tragic thing, and the Lakers players are all looking very low, except for Howard.
For Howard, an optimist, the situation of the team has nothing to do with his mood, whether the team is on the leading side or the backward side, it does not prevent Howard from playing treasures.
Looking at Howard, who was greeting the fans with a smile and not forgetting to be funny and tricky, Kobe Bryant's anger didn't come to a place.
Kobe Bryant doesn't understand why Howard can look at the outcome of the game so indifferently, if it is him, even if it is an ordinary regular season, he definitely doesn't want to give up and is unwilling to give up.
That's why Kobe Bryant took over the game.
In the second quarter of the game, Kobe's behavior became even more intensified.
Basically, most of the Lakers' offense is carried out by Kobe Bryant, and Nash can only smile helplessly at Kobe's extreme desire to control the ball, as a transferor, Nash has no say in the Lakers. He also knows that when he chose to leave his turf and come to the Lakers, he had already decided that he would never be able to control the ball to play as before.
Nash's strength is all played in the state of possession, once there is no ball, Nash is at most a shooter with good shooting ability, what can a single shooter do? To know. Nash is a well-known black hole on the defensive end, and he doesn't organize the team's offense on the court, which is basically holding the team back.
Mike. Brown also found this problem, Nash basically didn't have a big role when he was on the court, and he was always broken through by Paul like a colander, and after hesitating for a long time, Brown still took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to replace Nash and replaced him with backup point guard Steve. Blake, although Blake is weaker than Nash in strength. But defensively it's much better than Nash.
Nash, who was substituted, could only continue to smile helplessly.
looked at Kidd sitting on the Clippers bench, he was Nash's biggest opponent in his life, and the funny thing was that the two fought for a lifetime, but they didn't even win a championship.
Both of them chose to join someone else's team for the championship at the same time, but now? Kidd's choice is more crisp than Nash, because Kidd directly became a substitute in the Clippers, and Nash is still the Lakers' starting point guard.
But even so. Nash doesn't feel that he has any advantage over Kidd, because the gap between the Clippers and the Lakers is really too big.
The current Lakers have only experienced a few games. But it has already made Nash feel that the future is bumpy, Kobe Bryant and Howard's run-in is not good enough, and he can't find a good state, how can such a team compete for the championship?
Kidd, on the other hand, has now been reduced to a substitute. But the Clippers have an absolute ability to compete for a championship.
Sighing slightly, Nash was already thinking, was his choice wrong? But that's not a god after all, how could he imagine that after the Lakers introduced Howard and himself, it would be even more unbearable than before?
Nash has gains and losses alone, but the game on the court is still going on.
Although it has already been carried out to the second quarter. But Paul and Wang Cannon are still on the court, after all, they are still very young, and it is no big problem to play on the court for a while.
The Clippers don't have a young player like Bledsoe now, and instead have a veteran like Kidd Jamison, for whom they don't need and won't want much playing time, as long as they play the right role at the right time.
This is completely different from when Bledsoe was in the Clippers, at that time, although Bledsoe had a Paul on his head, but he was always looking forward to being able to play, after all, for him who was still young, he could fight for more playing time and brush up some beautiful numbers before he could sign a big contract, which is very different from those veterans who are about to retire.
For many teams, a promising rookie like Bledsoe is a very important resource, but for the Clippers with Paul, Paul is only 26 years old this year, and the time to go is long, and what the Clippers need to do is find a way to keep Paul, not develop a point guard like Bledsoe.
Back in the game, Blake's play could not effectively limit Paul, all he could do was to play a slightly stronger role than Nash, unlike Nash's casual breakthrough by Paul, but Paul wanted to break through him with a little effort.
So the Lakers' situation has not changed much, and they are still being pressed and beaten by the Clippers.
Kobe kept attacking, kept attacking, and wanted to use his strength to save the situation in front of him, but the effect was very small, Matthews and Kobe Bryant had not fought once or twice, although it couldn't limit Kobe, but it could cause some trouble to Kobe.
Before halftime, although Bryant scored 23 points under Matthews' defense, his shooting percentage was as high as 40%.
Compared with one of them, Wang Cannon is much more terrifying.
is also 23 points, but Wang Cannon's hit rate is 88 percent.
In terms of hit rate alone, Wang Cannon is almost twice as much as Kobe!
Lakers fans who watched this game were already speechless.
By halftime, the difference between the Lakers and the Clippers had reached more than 25 points, close to the 30-point mark.
Many Lakers fans have begun to exit the game in disappointment, what is the point of such a complete game? Do you have to watch your team be slaughtered after seeing the team you support lose?
"How can this be" Bieber looked at the scene in front of him with some distraction, how many years has the Lakers not lost like this?
Anyway, since Bieber became a Lakers fan, the Lakers have been the favorites to win the league championship, and they have also won two championships.
Bieber doesn't understand, why do the Super Big Four Lakers with Kobe, Howard, Nash, and Gasol play like this? Bieber has always believed that as long as there are enough superstars, it will be very easy for the team to win, just like the Celtics who formed the Big Three back then, and the Heat who later formed the new Big Three.
But now the Lakers have completely subverted Bieber's point of view, and he finally understands why many people say that stars do not represent the true strength of a team.
Although he was extremely disappointed, Bieber couldn't leave, because he and Kobe Bryant and others were friends after all, and even if they were disappointed, they couldn't leave early, so he could only continue to watch this complete slaughter.
However, what surprised him a little was that Taylor, who had never been very interested in NBA games before, watched it with relish at this time, and he didn't know what the reason was, but Bieber didn't think much about it, and he couldn't think about it anymore.
The game actually lost its suspense at the beginning of the third quarter.
felt that the score gap was almost there, Wang Cannon directly came to a small outbreak, and one person scored 9 points in a row, forcibly widening the difference between the two teams to 35 points.
This 9-point Wang Cannon was obtained by using the previous routine and relying on the body to forcibly break through, and the Lakers, who had basically adapted to Wang Cannon's current style of play, were caught off guard and were rushed into the interior line by Wang Cannon in turn.
As I said before, the cooperation between Gasol and Howard in the interior defense is very poor, and many times the two of them don't know who to go up to help the defense, and it is for this reason that Wang Cannon's score after breaking into the interior line seems very easy.
At this moment, the Lakers are completely out of play, and when they react, the point difference has been widened to a gap that they didn't expect and didn't know how to surpass.
Although very unwilling, the Lakers still had to give up the game, because the 35-point gap was completely hopeless to catch up.
So, Brown replaced all the main players and only let the substitutes play on the court.
The Lakers have surrendered their guns, and the Clippers are naturally not easy to kill, after all, if you are a man and leave a line, you will see each other in the future, right?
Wang Cannon, Paul and others also went to rest.
As soon as he got off the court, Kobe Bryant sat on the bench with a black face, watching the game between the soy sauce that continued on the court without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
Brown looked at Kobe Bryant with some concern, he couldn't be more clear about what kind of person Kobe was, he could tolerate a lot of things, but he couldn't tolerate failure, especially such a humiliating failure.
Sighed secretly, Brown knew that Kobe Bryant would definitely make trouble again, but there was no way, who would have thought that the Lakers would be so unbearable now?
Even last season, the Lakers could have a slight wrist break with the Clippers, but I didn't expect that with Howard this season, it will be even weaker.
Brown also knows that his coaching career with the Lakers may be coming to an end.
Not long ago, he heard the news that the Lakers intended to let Phil Jackson return to coach the Lakers, and now that he has led the team with such a poor record, I am afraid that even if this news is fake, he will not be far away. (To be continued......)
