Pierce blurted out: "How can there be a person like you in this world!" ”

In his heart, the alpaca galloped and his defensive movements stopped.

Li Ao seized the opportunity to cut in, and with a starting speed of 90, it was too late for Pierce, who was not attached, to keep up.

Li Ao enters the inside line to receive the ball and jumps!

From the beginning of the game to the time when Li Ao ran just now, Pierce was close to him, although Pierce's offensive performance collapsed tonight, but the defense surprised the whole team, and the talented newcomer who integrated offense and defense in the past two years is back.

Tony Barty didn't care about Li Ao cutting into this problem, his ability was there, and he was already stretched thin to prevent O'Neal Jr., and in the face of Li Ao who suddenly entered the inner line, he couldn't hide, let alone turn around and press up.

Li Ao smashed the ball into the basket across the opposite side of Tony Barty!

After landing, he said to Pierce, who was chasing after him, "Eh, you saw it today!" ”

Pierce, who had just calmed down a little because of the 'unequal betting', was angry again, asked for the ball directly from the backcourt, and rushed to the front court to attack...... Then he encountered the treatment of Li Ao's defense, Matt Harprin's defense, and O'Neal Jr.'s supplemental defense, and Pierce entered the inside line and hit a hot iron under the attack of Li Ao and O'Neal Jr......

The Clippers' defensive strategy tonight is to defend against the Celtics twins.

Although the Celtics are ranked eighth in the East and in the playoffs, they have a record of 20 wins and 22 losses, and the data is not very positive.

averaged 94 points per game, but conceded 96.5 points per game, 39.5 boards per game, conceded 43 boards per game, averaged 20.5 assists per game, was averaged 23 assists per game by opponents, and the number of blocks was lower than that of opponents, only steals were higher than opponents, and three-point shots were more than opponents.

There are only two teams that average double-doubles per game, Pierce and Anthony Walker, and there is no third person.

Of the 20 games the Celtics have won this season, 17 have been 50+ by the two.

As long as these two men are guarded, the Celtics are finished.

Anthony Walker is very difficult to defend, he doesn't score goals without looking at the opponent's defense, just looking at his own feelings.

So the Clippers' defensive strategy was to target Pierce from the start!

Before, Pierce only wanted to beat Li Ao, and he didn't pay so much attention.

This time, he broke in and was attacked by three people, and he finally reacted - he was fooled!

…

Knowing that he had been fooled, Pierce's choice was ...... Keep gambling! Prevent the death of the big spider!

He played defense and defended really well, Li Ao only got 6 points and 1 assist in the first half.

He is not as fast as Li Ao, but he has a good sense of prediction and can always follow him to the death.

Relying on his restrictions on the Clippers' first scoring point and second passing point, coupled with Anthony Walker's offensive firepower of 17 points and 5 assists in the half, the Celtics and the Clippers played evenly and relied on Anthony Walker's half-court three-point shooting to end the first half with a two-point lead over the Clippers at 43-41.

But in the second half, Pierce began to have problems with his stamina.

His physical strength is barely enough to reach the top, and he can play 30 minutes with the ball and defend with all his strength.

This season, he averaged 38 minutes per game and scored 24.9 points, and he was behind on the defensive end.

The kind that can't take care of the head and the tail.

On Li Ao's side, as the game deepened, Matt Harprin increased his defensive efforts against Pierce after completing the hand-to-hand combat consumption of the opponent's wing pitcher, and his defensive pressure suddenly decreased.

As soon as Pierce left the high post, he handed over the defensive task to Matt Hammerlin to help O'Neal Jr. protect the rim, and his physical exertion became smaller, and the Clippers' rim protection performance was brought up.

The Clippers quickly took the lead in the third quarter.

The Clippers had changes in the game, but the Celtics didn't, and their head coach Jim O'Brien was a ruthless substitution machine midway through the game, with a knack for developing young players but a poor on-court command.

In the second half, the Clippers played a score of 54-39!

Pierce played 35 minutes, shooting 4-of-15, including 1-of-6 three-pointers, plus 2-of-3 free throws, and scored 11 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, plus 4 turnovers and 4 fouls!

He came close to setting a new season low.

The only time he didn't score in a double this season was against Ron Artest against the Bulls, where he played 31 minutes on 0-of-7 shooting and scored nine points on 9-of-10 free throws.

Li Ao's side also made 15 shots tonight, but 15 made 6 goals!

Among them, he made 0 of 2 three-pointers, plus 4 of 5 free throws, and scored 16 points, 4 boards, 6 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks!

In the second half, Pierce couldn't keep up with Li Ao, and Li Ao took the opportunity to cooperate with Odom, and got 10 points and 5 assists in 17 minutes!

By 10:21 p.m., the Clippers and Celtics were outright.

The fans cheered wildly!

Although Anthony Walker broke Odom and Matt Harprin, who had been guarding him for a while, he had 29 points and 8 assists.

But two fists are no match for four hands.

Relying on Odom's 20 points and 7 assists, Li Ao's 16 points and 6 assists, and O'Neal Jr.'s 14 points and 11 boards, the Clippers defeated the Celtics 95-82 and won 3 consecutive wins!

Listening to the long whistle at the end of the game, Pierce stared at Li Ao's 16-point data on the big screen, and the heavens and men were fighting.

He was replaced less than halfway through the fourth quarter, but before he was replaced, Li Ao had already scored 14 points, and Li Ao did not score points later, a normal tandem attack.

Suddenly, his vision was blocked, and that nasty handsome face appeared in his sight.

At this moment, Pierce felt that the offense and defense had changed!

Two and a half hours ago, it was he who entered the enemy line alone, and this time their side became the one who broke in!

Anthony Walker immediately came to Pierce's side.

This Spider-Man wants to win + hit people again?

But Anthony Walker overthought it.

Li Ao said loudly: "Paul, the cameraman is ready, is he ready to execute the bet like a man?" You don't want to run away......"

Wipe! It was debunked and thought carefully!

However, it is a matter of whether it is a 'gentleman', coupled with the disdainful eyes and frivolous tone of the big spider opposite......

Pierce stood up and yelled, "I'm not going to run away!" Big men mean what they say! ”

At this time, a camera appeared behind Li Ao, and Pierce was down.

There's a videographer!

…

After the game, the defensive battle between Li Ao and Pierce sparked heated discussions.

Ao's defensive performance is not surprising, and the Clippers have done a very good job of helping to defend on the wing and under the basket, and he is very good at taking advantage of that.

But Pierce's defense was a surprise.

It turns out that this big mouth, who was stabbed 11 times in 28 seconds, can still defend seriously!

However, the fans' interest in Pierce's performance did not last long......

Someone on the Internet suddenly broke the news that Pierce bragged about going crazy after beating Spider-Man in the face with one hand, and ran naked outside the Staples Center!

At first, people thought it was someone spoofing, but soon a photo came out of the Staples Center, and there was indeed a person running outside the Staples Center without pants, both front and back, but the night was too dark and the picture was too blurry to see the face clearly.

Until the single-handedly concocted the contradiction of the big spider and the braggaking of the ESPN admission, a clear video was given.

It's really Pierce running bare-ass outside the Staples Center!

That speed, faster than on the court, I can't tell that he lacks energy in the second half.

The video is also from both positive and negative angles, and it is naturally the kind without coding.

Li Ao and Pierce are on the bar, but they have attracted attention, and the popularity is high, but it is not hot.

As soon as this video came out, Pierce exploded!

Some fans were amazed that bragging turned out to be not bragging about everything, and he said that every time he went to a nightclub, he took three female college students back to the hotel, and it seemed to be true.

But what kind of performance art is this?

Really crazy to be slapped in the face?

Some fans speculated: "Pierce is showing his capital to Hollywood?" I heard that he was jealous that Spider-Man was as popular as a movie star in Los Angeles, and he also wanted to go filming? The kind that adults watch? ”

This speculation is outrageous, but fans have chosen to 'believe', saying that as long as Pierce goes to make a film, they will vote for Pierce and vote him as an All-Star.

In order to show their sincerity, some fans even drove overnight to a fast-food restaurant that does not close 24 hours a day to buy a burger and vote for Pierce, and took photos and posted them on the Internet......

A basketball genius who has played a hemisphere for two years, bragged countless bulls that have not been realized, and has never been popular, after taking off his pants, he exploded overnight!

…

Li Ao didn't expect Pierce to be so sincere.

He thought that Pierce would wear a pair of pants at most and go for a lap, so that he would be considered a gentleman.

This kind of thing, another person may directly repay the debt.

I didn't expect Pierce to be really bare-ass!

Somewhat exhibitionist......

The next morning, NBA officials spoke and asked players on all teams to be cautious in what they say and do in public.

There was also a media interview with Li Ao about Pierce running naked around the Staples Center, and Li Ao replied: "Pierce is always welcome home in Los Angeles." ”

After that, he didn't pay attention to this matter anymore, and devoted himself to training, and there were back-to-back tonight, so he didn't have so much spare time.

By 8 p.m., the Clippers were back-to-back home games against the Kings.

Once the game began, the Kings quickly gained the upper hand.

Chris Webber, who averaged 27.1 points, 11 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, played the Clippers unwanted.

On the offensive end, the Kings are second in the league, averaging 101 points per game behind the Bucks, who are three Musketeers.

On the defensive end, the addition of Doug Christie not only brought more accurate mid-to-long-range shooting and outside singles, but also showed defensive strength at the first-level level, making up for the shortcomings of the Kings' defensive line defense, and the Kings' defensive performance soared to the top ten in the league.

This has to mention the bad thing about the Kings' rise that was halted last season - in the summer of '99, he poached Nick Anderson from the Magic with 4 years and 22 million US dollars.

The Kings are looking forward to Nick Anderson, a veteran who helped O'Neal reach the Finals.

But who would have thought that at the age of 31, the age when a catch-and-shoot pitcher should play, Nick Anderson collapsed directly, shooting 39% from the field. With a 33% three-point shooting rate and no motivation at all, the performance is not as good as Joan Barry, who holds an $800,000 contract.

The media joked that this is because the Kings give too much, and the salary for 4 years is higher than the salary of the first 10 years of Nick Anderson's career, and people still have the motivation to play.

Swap Nick Anderson for Doug Christie, and the Kings are starting to take off!

Li Ao scored 26 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals on 11-of-25 shooting tonight, they played well defensively tonight, and they also played several counterattacks, mostly due to Jason Williams mistakes, and the Kings only scored 94 points, which is very good.

It's just that the Kings are in the top 10 defense in the league, and they have always maintained defensive focus, and they have not slackened at all because the opponent is a non-playoff team.

The Clippers scored only 87 points on 35-of-86 shooting on the offensive end, and Li Ao's 44% shooting rate was already calculated in the team.

The Clippers played hard, but ultimately lost 87-94, ending a three-game winning streak.

…

The winning streak ended, and the Clippers' record became 22-22, returning to a 5-to-5 winning percentage.

Not many people paid attention to their loss after the game, and it was news that they won against the Kings, and everyone felt normal when they lost, including Clippers fans.

But they have played to this stage, and there is still a 5% win rate, which has attracted the attention of some people.

Is this really going to stand up to the rhythm?

The Clippers have 17 games in a single month, multiple back-to-backs, and they still maintain this winning rate.

If this is put in the East, the playoffs will be stable!

Even in the West, the Clippers have not fallen behind, this month, the 8th SuperSonics in the West, the 9th Rockets, and the 10th Nuggets are all approaching the 5 percent win rate, and the recent games are more losses and fewer wins.

If the Clippers survive the mid-season and still have this winning rate, it is not impossible to counterattack.

However, not many people pay attention to this matter, and more people's attention is on Li Ao - Spider-Man has 0 blocks for the first time in his career!

Someone stepped on it - Spider-Man encounters a team with good passing and strong overall offense, and the block will not work.

There are also people who have a different view - this proves that Spider-Man didn't brush the block, and when the team needed him more on the outside defense, he didn't focus on the inside to make up the hat.

This sparked a controversy over 'whether Spider-Man brushes a cap'.

Originally, there was no such controversy, Li Ao hatted a lot of veteran hats at the earliest, that is, he was ridiculed as 'only bullying the old man', and the evaluation of his block itself was still very high, and the defensive improvement brought by his interior assistance defense to the Clippers was obvious.

But with the rise in popularity this month, controversy has suddenly emerged.

There is no need for any evidence to support it, and his remarks about brushing the cap have been supported by many people.

In addition to the controversy, Li Ao's single-game 0 cap also brought another topic - the battle for the king of blocks!

Prior to the game against the Kings, he averaged 3.77 blocks per game, which is the top of the block list ahead of Ratliffe, who averaged 3.6 blocks per game.

The previous list of blocks was once ignored by fans.

Because Li Ao's blocks at the beginning of the season were too fierce, he once averaged 5+ blocks per game at the beginning, and he still averaged 4+ blocks per game after playing in November, and Mutombo, who was second on the block list at that time, averaged 2.9 blocks per game, Li Ao was far ahead, and Mo Ning was reimbursed, and no one could compete with Li Ao, who performed like this.

Now, people are amazed to find out that Ratliff doesn't know when to catch up!
