Chapter 282: The Confused Paul (4400 Words Chapter)

On the evening of January 5, the Clippers ushered in their second back-to-back game of the week.

They will host the Warriors tonight, both teams in the Pacific Division, so it is natural that they will meet each other frequently.

However, unlike the last time they played on the road, this game has just begun, and the Clippers' defensive intensity has been pulled to the highest.

In this case, the Warriors, who ate dumplings in the last meeting, directly wilted, and only scored 12 points in the first quarter of the game.

On the Clippers' side, Li Ze and Griffin almost killed the Warriors, Li Ze was 5 of 6 and 2 of 2 free throws to score 12 points, and Griffin was 6 of 7 and 2 of 3 free throws to score 14 points.

At 12:35, at the end of the first quarter, the Clippers sealed the victory with a 23-point advantage.

Stephen Curry, who played well in the last meeting, was 0 of 5, David Lee was 0 of 4, and these two were both hung up zero in the first quarter, and Kerry Thompson was 1 of 4 and scored 2 points.

Get up from where you fall, Griffin did respond, but seeing the Clippers leading by a large score, the fans at the scene knew that the playing time of the main lineup was running out, and they all felt that the tickets were lost.

The on-site director also felt that there was no suspense in the game, and frequently focused the camera on Shakira, who came to the scene tonight to watch the game.

Since Li Ze returned to Los Angeles, the blonde sister has often come to the Clippers' home court to watch games.

Although the gossip media in Los Angeles are saying that the two are definitely not just boyfriend and girlfriend, neither of them is married, they are cooperative, and the media reporters can't dig up any breaking news.

After all, most NBA players are not Mr. Yes, and the Golden Club had such a good business back then, and some superstars also contributed their own strength.

The blonde sister put her hair together again today, this is Li Ze's favorite hairstyle, in addition to performing on stage in the past two years, she rarely wears heavy makeup, relying more on technology, coupled with the relationship between genes, making this person who looks only twenty-eight or nineteen years old, facing the director's camera, smiled and waved his hand!

As a result, bored Los Angeles fans immediately beat their chests when they saw this scene, and expressed their willingness to take over...

Install the latest version. 】

The Warriors didn't play the bench lineup at all in the second quarter, and although Jamal Crawford was still suspended tonight on the Clippers' side, the bench lineup was completely relaxed under the huge advantage, and the explosive Griffin made the point difference not narrow at all.

Coach Mark Jackson saw that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly withdrew several main players, vaguely admitting defeat, and Li Ze, who was sitting on the bench, saw the young Draymond Green on the court, and suddenly a wonderful feeling came to his heart.

"What happens if Kevin joins the Warriors in the future?"

As soon as he thought of this, Li Ze made up a few pictures in his mind, and suddenly he couldn't help laughing.

Compared with Li Ze sitting on the bench and watching the game calmly, Chris Paul got up from time to time and came to the sidelines, loudly reminding his teammates to pay attention to defense, obviously, for Paul, tonight can be regarded as a revenge battle.

The next game was basically a cutscene, with the main lineups of both sides playing for about 26 minutes, and the atmosphere group was quickly replaced in the second half.

This made the fans in Los Angeles very dissatisfied, and after seeing the same game for two days in a row, many fans almost shouted "Give me back!" "That's it.

Despite his lack of playing time, tonight's Chris Paul seemed to respond to the last game.

In 28 minutes of playing time, he was 10-of-12, including 5-of-6 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, for 27 points, 5 rebounds and 10 assists and no turnovers.

Li Ze also played 28 minutes, 10 of 15, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 26 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.

Griffin was 8-of-12 from the field and easily finished with 20 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 turnovers, while David Lee was 3-of-10 from the field and scored just 10 points.

In the end, 89-117, the Clippers defeated the Warriors at home and easily completed revenge.

After the game, the players of the two teams greeted each other, and Klee Thompson hugged Li Ze helplessly:

"I hate losing by a big score! Can't you let me win a few more times? You're merciless every time you play against me. ”

Seeing the other party's bitter gourd face, Li Ze immediately teased and said:

"14 points, the highest score of the Warriors team, I was released!"

“...”

Paul was ruthless on the pitch, but after the game he showed affability, this year the old fish Fisher is leaving, Paul is interested in taking over the presidency of the players' union, so no matter whether the game is won or lost, it must be amiable on the surface.

"Will you still be in Los Angeles tomorrow? I can have a welcome party! ”

Kerry Thompson was about to nod his head when he heard Li Ze's words, and Stephen Curry on the side immediately spoke:

"The coaching staff didn't allow us to run around during the game, thank you for your hospitality, Kayce!"

Li Ze didn't expect Mark Jackson's management to become stricter, and he brought Jackson with him last time.

"That looks like I can only talk about next time, I've had a lot of time lately, and I only have two home games to play next week!"

Kerry Thomp glanced at Curry and pouted boredly, and only an honest person like Curry would strictly abide by the team's rules and regulations.

Draymond Green wanted to come up and be familiar with Li Ze, but when he thought that he had no presence in the Warriors at the moment and gave up the idea, he didn't want to introduce himself stupidly.

In the end, the two sides said goodbye amicably, announcing the official end of this game with average attention.

After returning to the locker room, the coaching staff of the Clippers directly announced a two-day holiday, which immediately caused a burst of cheers from everyone, which can be regarded as a reward for the team's 27-game winning streak.

Li Ze came to the parking lot, and when he saw the headlights flashing twice, he immediately knew that the blonde sister was already in the car.

Opened the co-pilot's door, and as soon as he sat in the car, Shakira suddenly said:

"There smells of women in the car!"

“......”

Seeing Li Ze's constipated expression, the blonde sister immediately laughed:

"It's not my car, forgive me! I'll settle accounts with you in the evening! ”

"I will serve the Queen well tonight!"

The blonde sister's face turned red, and she gave Li Ze a fierce look:

"Don't talk nonsense outside! Sit tight, I'm going to try the performance of this car! ”

"Oh! Stay safe! Don't drive too fast! ”

In October last year, Li Ze and Shakira bought a three-story mansion in Palisad, a traditionally wealthy neighborhood in Los Angeles.

The blonde sister loves the location, Palisades is backed by the Santa Monica valley and faces the Pacific Ocean, which is why the big money like to buy a house here.

The villa they bought together is located at the highest point of the coastline and at the end of the road, guaranteeing plenty of privacy.

Of course, the house covering an area of 1,100 square meters, with 7 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms is really not cheap, and the two spent 12.5 million US dollars, but the living experience is really not to be said.

After the renovation, there are wine cellars, home theaters, recording studios, heated swimming pools, etc., plus the surrounding vegetation is lush, and the doors are closed, and it is okay to run at home.

took a beautiful bath together, and the blonde sister who returned to the bedroom leaned on Li Ze's arms with a ruddy face around the bath towel:

"Don't you think about signing a few more singers? I can introduce you to new Spanish-speaking people, and if you want to make more money, sometimes you have to rely on quantity. ”

Seeing the blonde sister blinking her big eyes and asking softly, Li Ze just hugged the other party tightly and responded in a low voice:

"The company's resources are insufficient, and it is rare for independent record companies to find a cash cow, even if there is a cooperation with Universal Music, but physical record sales are declining, and there are problems with the settlement of streaming media, in short, it is now a stage of transformation, and it can only develop honestly."

Hearing Li Ze's words, the blonde sister didn't care, but her little hands began to get restless, and she leaned into Li Ze's ear and whispered:

"Is it better to be a boy or a girl?"

Feeling that the blonde goblin was about to make a mistake again, Li Ze hurriedly controlled the other party's little hand and asked with a smile:

"Don't you want to go to 'The Voice'?"

"The first few months, and it doesn't matter, coward!"

Every time she takes the initiative, it will make the blonde sister's face red, especially some new knowledge, and sometimes it makes her...

Listening to the whispered voice of the blonde goblin, Li Ze still didn't resist it, and began to subdue the demons!

...

On January 9, the Clippers, who had rested for three days, continued to play the Mavericks at home.

Due to Nowitzki's previous injury, the Mavericks' results have also plummeted, and they currently have a 13-22 record and are in 10th place in the West.

Despite adding Dalenco Reeson, O.J. Mayo, and Chris Carman in the offseason, several guys didn't hold up the team's toughest periods.

In the night's game, although Nowitzki returned from injury, the Mavericks still lost the game cleanly, 93-107, and the Clippers easily won the game.

On the night of the 11th, the Clippers had their final game of the week, and they will face the Magic at home tonight.

Crawford's return from injury was supposed to be great news for the Clippers, but in the fourth quarter of the game, Chris Paul collided with Redick on offense and sprained his right knee, which immediately made Coach Dragro completely unable to sit still.

"You have to control the defensive movement on the field, my player is injured! Also, Why do opponents make so many free throws? ”

Scott Foster, as the referee on duty tonight, heard the complaint of head coach De Mangro that his backhand was a t, and the Magic continued to make free throws.

Li Ze was completely speechless, there were 4 minutes and 22 seconds left in the game, counting this free throw, the Magic had already made 17 free throws, which seemed to be a small number, but the Clippers only had 4 free throws on this side.

Two of those serves were made by Lee, and the other two were by Grant Hill.

With Redick hitting a free throw, Ray Allen came off the bench to put the score at 89-95 and the Clippers had a six-point lead.

The ensuing game was almost blown to pieces by Scott Foster, which also made the fans in the Staples Arena start scolding the referee.

Despite the help of the referee, Griffin was unstoppable tonight, and in the last few minutes, he received Li Ze's flying cakes in a row, and all of them were successfully converted into goals.

By the end of the ugly game, 102-108, the Clippers had won the game with a hard time.

Li Ze was 13-of-20, including 3-of-6 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, with 31 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 turnover, and Griffin was 13-of-20 with 26 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 turnover, with no free throws.

The excellent performance of the two ensured the final victory of the Clippers, but when facing a reporter from Los Angeles after the game, Li Ze also complained rarely:

"I don't want to talk about the whistle, but tonight's game is in Los Angeles, which is our home field, and six free throws are too few, and Blake is going to hit the interior in a row, and there will be no free throws? I only hope that the scale of blowing penalties can be consistent! ”

The Magic, who lost this game, had a record of 12 wins and 24 losses, which was originally just a mediocre regular season, because the referee's blowing penalty and Paul's injury began to attract the attention of many media.

After returning to the locker room, everyone on the Clippers saw Paul looking depressed and thought he was seriously injured, but fortunately, the team doctor did not sell it, and immediately said:

"There should be no structural damage, and the specific situation will need to be confirmed tomorrow, but under ideal conditions, Chris should be able to continue to play after half a month of rest, and the All-Star Game will not be delayed!"

Before Chris Paul could speak, Li Ze immediately comforted him:

"It's okay, Chris! Recuperate with peace of mind! I can play in the No. 1 position and there will be no problems for the team in this half month. ”

"I can also help Kayce share the pressure of the organization, I have found my feelings in these games, let's recuperate with peace of mind!"

Griffin also comforted him, and Paul looked at Griffin's excited appearance, and a question mark slowly appeared in his heart.

“?”

Why is he so excited without him, the master who makes cakes? Although Paul wanted to complain, he could only thank him with a wry smile in the end:

"Thanks, guys! I'll be back in action as soon as I can! ”

"Don't worry about Chris, we must take care of the injury, we don't have to worry about the results at all now!"

Although this is very true, when Paul saw Griffin's appearance, he always felt that the other party had other meanings, and finally could only complain silently in his heart:

"Maybe I'm thinking too much..."

With four away games for the coming week, the coaching staff allowed Paul to stay in Los Angeles to recuperate.

On January 14, the Clippers flew to Minnesota to take on the Timberwolves on the road.

The Timberwolves currently have a 15-22 record, and if nothing else, there is a good chance that they will be the top spot again this season.

Kevin Love was unable to play due to injury, and on the Clippers' side, Li Ze played the No. 1 guard, Ray Allen became the starting No. 2 position, and the No. 3 position was Matt Barnes, who is currently in better form.

Coach Dragaro thought that the team's offense would be chaotic for a while, but at the end of the first quarter of the game, the coaching staff were all dumbfounded, Li Ze delivered 6 assists in a single quarter, and the starters all ate the cake...

At the end of the game, at 112:77, the Clippers defeated their opponents, and Li Ze scored a double-double of 34 points, 8 rebounds, 13 assists, 2 steals and 1 turnover.

On January 15, the Clippers challenged the Suns back-to-back, almost a copy of the previous game, Li Ze completely dominated the offense, and the Clippers played extremely fluently, blossoming inside and out, leading the opponent by 15 points in half a game.

In the end, at 110:93, the Clippers easily won back-to-back games, and Li Ze once again scored 32 points, 7 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, and there were no turnovers.

On January 17, the Clippers had a full day off and visited the Rose Garden Arena, where Li Ze and Griffin played almost the entire Trail Blazers' defense.

At 113:101, the Clippers won the game easily again, Griffin got 24 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 turnovers, while the same Li Ze got a double-double, 30 points, 7 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals and 1 turnover.

After this game, Amerika's media reporters also looked stupid, organizing the big forward, this is the correct way to open Griffin, Li Ze is more suitable for the No. 1 position?

And Chris Paul, who was far away at home in Los Angeles, saw Fox Sports boasting about Li Ze and Griffin's organizational skills, and suddenly looked confused, and complained wildly in his heart:

"You don't need me anymore? Shet! Griffin must have been premeditated! ”
