281. Crazy Spider-Man, regular season champion! (11,500 words)

On the 15th, the Clippers came to Oakland, rested for an afternoon, and beat the Warriors 104-88 in the evening.

When Li Ao and Jordan talked about the next opponent last night, they didn't mention this opponent...... There is really no need to mention that they didn't play Jordan and O'Neal Jr. tonight, and they won very easily.

Li Ao scored 33 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks.

After back-to-back plays, the Clippers returned to Los Angeles.

During the two-day break, the next game was against the Kings on the 18th and the Timberwolves on the 20th.

Li Ao took the baby for an afternoon, and after dinner, he saw the battle report that the Kings won away against the Grizzlies.

After browsing the Internet and the circle portals and forums, they played the game of the Kings the day after tomorrow, which became the most concerned and hotly discussed game at the moment.

They are currently both 63-17, and this game will have a direct impact on the final winner of the regular season and which team will be the new 65-win team.

Li Ao saw some Lakers fans and said: "Even if the Clippers win the Kings, they may not be able to win the regular season championship, their last game against the Timberwolves is also likely to lose, they are currently 1-2 against the Kings, and if they win, they will only draw, and the Kings have a better record in the division than them." ”

The fans of the next-door neighbor have such big eyes!

But that's right, he said to Jordan that 'just win the last two games', and that's why he said that.

For the Suns to win against the Kings, it is basically impossible for the Kings to be the first place.

The next-door neighbor is also quite topical today, but the reason is a little special.

In the evening, the Lakers suddenly announced that O'Neal would miss the next three games due to injury.

It's just so dead, not two, not four, it's just the Lakers' three games left in the regular season.

The Trail Blazers lost 91-96 in the afternoon against the Nets, and the Trail Blazers, who have not played two games left, have a current record of 54-26, and the next two wins cannot surpass the Lakers, who are already 57-22.

As long as the Mavericks have a better record than the Timberwolves, they are second in the West.

The Clippers and Kings have won 63.

So O'Neal was injured, Li Ao felt that this was very reasonable, if they weren't still competing for rankings, Jordan and O'Neal Jr. could have been 'injured' now.

Open the official website and look at O'Neal's stats, the number of appearances this season is fixed at 60.

Before the All-Star weekend, O'Neal played 38 games and averaged 25.1 points per game, and now he is fixed at 27.2 points, third in the league, only Iverson and Duncan are taller than him.

O'Neal played 22 games in a row, averaging 30.82 points per game before being 'injured again'.

In the 22 games in which the OK combination gathered and O slimmed down, the Lakers were 19-3.

That's almost on par with their Clippers run around the All-Star Weekend.

However, Snake averaged 25.8 points per game...... Straight down.

Maybe the last 3 games can return to 26+, Li Ao believes that the former landlord will definitely rush.

On the 17th, Li Ao accompanied the team for a day of preparation training, and on the 18th, the Clippers welcomed the challenge of the Kings at home.

At 7:40 p.m., the Staples Center, the Kings and Clippers entered the court.

Jordan started the group again, and the line with his old rival Divac.

"Vlad, you must be very afraid to fight against your old club, I will give you the chance to easily advance to the Western Finals, thank us for our kindness."

"Thank you for your concern, Lakers and you, we will beat them one by one, not one less, I hope you don't get upset by the Mavericks."

After a tie, Jordan didn't continue, and forcibly taunted and lost the force.

It is a pity that the number 0 player who was watching did not quarrel.

Like the Clippers, the Kings also didn't have the idea of picking third to avoid the Lakers in the first two rounds.

Rather than expecting other teams to take out the Lakers, they chose to do it themselves.

With 60+ wins, it is possible to get 65 wins, and the confidence of the strong team that the Kings have laid this season is no weaker than that of the Clippers!

The two teams were actively carrying out the final preparations before the game, and the ten minutes passed quickly, and the two teams started to the field.

The Clippers fielded a starting lineup of Bibby, Li Ao, Jordan, Matt Harplin, and O'Neal Jr.

The Kings fielded a starting lineup of White Chocolate, Doug Christie, Peja, Webb, Divac.

At 8 p.m., the game began.

O'Neal Jr. won the jump ball and the Clippers took the lead.

Bibby advanced to the frontcourt, and O'Neal Jr. ran out after entering the basket and attacked with Bibby.

Jordan ran to respond, received the ball and passed it again, Li Ao went around to the top arc, received the ball and shot a three-point shot...... Hit!

Switching offense and defense, the Kings launched an expanded version of Princeton's style of play.

After consecutive off-ball screens, Webb met Jordan to switch defenses.

Webb received the ball and dummered a shot, and after Jordan pressed it, Webb turned and burst inside.

Li Ao gave Peja a timely contraction block after the confrontation, creating a shrink block opportunity for O'Neal Jr.

Webb split the ball with Peja, and Peja received the ball to meet Jordan's three-point shot...... Also enter!

3-3 draw!

Peja shot quickly this time, and Jordan's defense failed to form a substantial interference.

However, in the two meetings before and after the middle of the season, the Clippers' defense was enough, and at that time, Peja was hesitant to catch and shoot after being hand-to-hand by Li Ao, and Jordan, Odom, Matt Harprin and others could always make up for it.

But after the last meeting, Peja threw confidence and tonight was more decisive, and Jordan's pace seemed a little slower.

When it came to the Clippers' offense, Jordan was stuck to Doug Christie at the free-throw line.

Jordan immediately ended his run, moved to the right of the free throw line with his hands outstretched, and then suddenly turned and rushed inside, and Bibby tacitly dealt his cards.

Jordan received the ball in the middle of the right sideline in the three-second zone, and Peja, who chased Li Ao around the reasonable collision area, hurriedly went up to make up for the defense.

Jordan shared the ball, and Li Ao received the ball at a two-point position on the right baseline...... Again!

Webb, who didn't make up for it in the middle of the baseline, had a serious expression, and as they analyzed before the game, the Clippers changed their style of play tonight.

But the change in style of play is very different from what they expected!

The first three times they played against the Clippers, two of them were scored 40+ by Spider-Man, which was caused by their defensive tendencies, of course, because they defended Spider-Man, a forward pitcher with excellent height and arm span, who was not good at defense, and the same was true when they met Tianzun and Wolf King, but those two Spider-Man scores were generally passive, and the opportunity came to play singles and shoots.

Tonight, the Clippers took the initiative to create shooting opportunities for Spider-Man!

The Clippers' style of play reminded Webb of last season's Western Conference finals.

In that Western duel, they surrounded O'Neill.

Bryant made 8 mid-range shots and 15 free throws per game, averaging 35 points, 9 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game in four games to sweep the team.

Is the Clippers trying to learn from the Lakers?

The corners of Webb's mouth sneered, that's a black mamba, use Spider-Man as a black mamba? Really black mamba comes, they are not afraid now!

The Kings continued to go on the storm.

Peja contained, Webb cut in, Divac Tsze split the ball, and Doug Christie hit a two-point shot from the right side of the three-second zone!

The Kings' offense was so smooth that even Clippers fans at the scene felt that the Kings' offense was as gorgeous as a work of art.

In comparison, they are very ...... on the Clippers side Simple and crude! But it's simple, and it's good to watch.

When it came to the Clippers' offense, Li Ao received the ball in the run, and Doug Christie made up for it, but Li Ao was no longer the same as he was in last year's playoffs.

Webber shrank into place, Li Ao stopped and turned around to hook his hand, Webber pressed up and racked the ball down, but it hit Li Ao, and Li Ao got two free throws.

Li Ao made the first penalty, he puffed out his bun face, and it was still a little affected when he was hit for a while, but the second penalty was adjusted and hit steadily.

The score was 6-5, the Clippers led by 1 point, and both teams had a very high offensive success rate at the beginning, and it continued after that!

Throughout the first quarter, both teams were playing with their lives, and neither side was on the defensive side first.

The Clippers are jealous of Peja's recent stellar form.

The Kings, on the other hand, did not dare to defend with the Clippers without playing a clear advantage, and they were inseparable from the opposing side in defense, but the key players on the opposite side were better than them.

The scores of the two teams rose alternately, and the players were actually quite under pressure and did not dare to slack off, but the audience on the scene and in front of the TV enjoyed the eyes, and the viewing experience was full!

At the end of the first quarter, the offensive firepower of the Kings, who rotated 8 people, continued for the entire quarter, shooting 66.7% from the field, shooting 14 of 21, including 3 of 5 three-pointers, plus 5 of 5 free throws, and scored 36 points!

The Clippers were a little less missed, shooting 60 percent from the field on 12-of-20 shooting, including 2-of-4 three-pointers and 7-of-9 free throws to finish with 33 points.

The overall play went back and forth, and the Kings scored one more three-pointer to lead the Clippers into the intermission by three points.

On the Clippers bench, Gentry is under a lot of pressure.

Ai played the first quarter, shooting 5-of-8, including 1-of-2 three-pointers, plus 5-of-6 free throws, for 16 points in a single quarter.

It's like this, and it's still 3 points behind.

It's not that they didn't have defense in the first quarter, but they couldn't defend it!

Peja made 3-of-5 three-pointers in the first quarter and pinned Li Ao, and Webb scored 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting in the single quarter with an expanded Princeton style of play.

The two scored 21 points, and the rest of the Kings scored 15 points.

How to break two unsolvable points?

Gentry had an idea and looked at his disciple.

Li Ao felt Gentry's eyes, got up, and prepared to defend against Weber.

What else can I do? Odom is not good enough defensively; O'Neal Jr. can defend against power forwards, but Webber plays like a small forward, and O'Neal Jr.'s defense against Webb is equivalent to encountering misalignment; Jordan has enough strength, speed, and skills, but the height gap is large, and he has to be beaten and shot stupidly by the back; Gerald Wallace is not on the radar......

Gentry made a decision and said to Li Ao: "Leo, you go to the white chocolate." ”

Li Ao subconsciously responded: "I know, I'll defend ...... Who are you talking about? ”

Gentry was in a good mood when he saw the stunned expression of his beloved.

He was under a lot of pressure when he made a difficult decision, but now the pressure has eased a lot.

It's hard to see an expression like that in a game.

It's finally time for you to surprise you!

Without saying a second word, Gentry called the rest of the team together and began to lay out the play.

It's simple, but it's wild - let Spider-Man rest on the defensive end, leave all Spider-Man's physical strength on the offensive end, and the others try their best to prevent baskets and three-pointers, and it is naturally good to prevent it from being pulled down!

At the end of the intermission, Gentry waved his hand, and the combination of Bibby, Big Q, Li Ao, Odom, and Jeron Collins came on the court!

Jordan didn't say anything when Gentry was arranged, and when his teammates got on the court, he approached Gentry and said, "Alvin, are you serious?" Fight with this opponent to attack? We tried, we lost. ”

Gentry responded: "We lost half a year ago, but it's been half a year, not necessarily this time." ”

Jordan continued to retort: "Your defensive setup is also too simple, mid-range equals no defense, and the opposite mid-range shot is good. ”

"I didn't miss the shot, I just prioritized the three-point defense and the basket, and no matter how good their shot is, can it compare to the basketball god and Spider-Man?

For you and Leo, their mid-range defense is the same as no defense. ”

Jordan rubbed the beard on his chin when he heard this, which made him embarrassed.

That's right, his CIC is the first in the world.

Jordan kept his eyes on the court.

The offensive firepower of the opposite side is still crazy, even as a goat, he admits that the opposite side is a super strong team, ranked in the entire NBA history, no worse than any opponent he faced in the Finals that year.

However, the offensive firepower on the opposite side, they carried it on their side!

Spider-Man played more unrestrained on the offensive end than in the first quarter!

In the previous game, Li Ao had to take into account the defense, and often played the offensive end of the waist stroke, sometimes a quarter soared 10+ points, the second quarter must be on the offensive end of the waist, open the goat mode, in order to ensure continuity on the defensive end, to ensure that the game can play for 40 minutes.

But if the defense thinks it's a goat......

6 of 10 shots in a single quarter, plus 1 of 1 free throws, Li Ao scored 13 points, 1 board, 4 assists and 1 steal in a single quarter!

The defense doesn't care, the rebounds are not grabbed, crazy shooting + encountering a pinch shot, the only 1 rebound is picked up, the steal is white chocolate when the point is burst, Doug Christie didn't notice the ball coming, ran away, and smashed the ball to the referee and was picked up by him.

Li Ao made 7 shots in the first half of the quarter, scored 9 points and 1 assist, and led the team to 16 points in the first half of the quarter, forcing the Kings to strengthen their defense against him in the second half of the quarter.

Jordan, Matt Harprin, and O'Neal Jr., who played in the second half of the quarter, took the opportunity to fire, and under the leadership of Li Ao with 4 points and 3 assists in the first quarter, the Clippers continued their offensive firepower and scored 16 points in the first quarter.

Although the Kings' offense continued to be hot in the second quarter, they soared by another 30 points in a single quarter, but they were still narrowed by two points.

65-66, the Clippers trailed the Kings by 1 point into halftime!

This game made Jordan, Divac and other veterans of more than ten years feel like they are dreaming back to 10 years ago.

It was so wild in those days.

After the break, the two teams restarted their starting lineups for the third quarter.

It's still a rush attack.

On Gentry's side, the players felt like the manager was going crazy again tonight.

Every time they attacked, their head coach was so excited that Gentry didn't think about other options at halftime, and talked about offensive tactics the whole time.

The Kings really didn't dare to defend with intensity.

Upper strength is a double-edged sword, hurting the enemy as well as hurting yourself.

If there is an advantage, then it is certain, they play defense and are not afraid of any opponent.

But now there is no advantage, and the changes on the opposite side have once again exceeded their expectations.

Fans of Mad Scientist are really crazy! actually let Spider-Man, who is tandem defensive, give up defense and pure offense.

Spider-Man's offensive firepower was also more fierce than they expected, and he shot exaggeratedly in his catch.

Compared to the first quarter, Spider-Man only made a few fewer free throws, and the firepower was not bad at all.

Spider-Man had 3 50+ times in his rookie year, but in the eyes of the Kings coaching staff and players, that does not represent Spider-Man's true scoring ability.

Playing the Trail Blazers to get 50+, it was because of the bursting hand, plus the Trail Blazers had many injured players in that game, and they didn't defend well, and they were scored more than 120 points by the Clippers.

The next two 50+, one was against the Bucks who had no defense, and the other was against the Warriors, the leader of the team, and they didn't count.

In the previous games of this season, when Spider-Man soared the hardest, he scored 45 points, and he beat the Knicks to break out.

But tonight, Spider-Man's firepower is much stronger than they expected!

29 points at halftime!

Not only accurate, but for them, it is even more difficult to defend against Li Ao than against Kobe.

Bryant scored purely on his own, and the rest of the Lakers were the response point and the receiving point.

But Li Ao can single Doug Christie, Peja, and Turkoglu as a forward guard, and can also catch and shoot, Bibby, Jordan, Odom, and even O'Neal Jr. can feed Li Ao the ball.

The Kings are now having a hard time riding and can only continue to fight with the Clippers.

However, on the defensive end, they changed their strategy and focused on defending Li Ao!

On Li Ao's side, he is now focused on the offensive state, quite sensitive to the changes in the opponent's defense, and quickly discovered the opponent's defensive intentions, he ran more actively, took the initiative to shake off the defense, and let the opponent's other players make up for him, completely disrupting the opponent's hand.

Bibby, Jordan, and Odom also have excellent offensive awareness, and the tacit understanding has been full after a year, and they take the opportunity to attack.

The Kings were on fire in the third quarter, scoring 32 points, which was even better than the second quarter.

But the Clippers withstood the opposing offense with the same strong firepower.

Li Ao only made 5 shots in this quarter, 2 of 5 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers, plus 4 of 4 free throws, scored 9 points, and did not score a double-double in a single quarter for the first time in this game.

But Jordan had eight points, Bibby had six points, Odom had two points and four assists, O'Neal Jr. had one dunk and one of two free throws to score three points, and Greg Anthony had a catch-and-shoot three-pointer.

The Clippers scored 31 points in a single quarter!

At the end of the third quarter, the Kings only led the Clippers by two points, with a score of 98-96!

Adelman regretted playing that way in the third quarter.

The rough defense and fierce pinch attack made Spider-Man's shooting rate go down, but it also made Spider-Man's free throws go up.

The actual defensive effect was not as good as the first quarter.

And it also gave Jordan and Bibby a lot of easy shooting opportunities.

Mainly Jordan here, 3 of 5 shots and 2 of 2 free throws in 8 minutes were almost all easy shooting opportunities.

Not only did they fail to really defend against Spider-Man, but they also failed to complete their pre-game planned consumption of Jordan!

The last time they met, they lost because they didn't do a good job defending Jordan, and Jordan scored 8 points in the last minutes.

We were able to win the last meeting, which is very well done.

But when it comes to this, it's useless to regret it.

Adelman decides to go all the way to the dark, and fights whichever side can hold out to the end!

Compared to Adelman, Gentry thought much simpler.

Fight to attack, if you don't fall behind, then continue to rush!

The final quarter began, and in the first half of the quarter, the Kings scored 16 points.

But their insistence on defending in the third quarter allowed the Clippers to score 15 points as well!

Li Ao only got 4 points and 1 assist, yes, but Jordan scored 8 points in the first quarter!

Coupled with Bibby's three-point shot after a block, the Clippers relied on the three outside stars to bite the score.

114-111, with a three-point lead, Adelman panicked.

If it goes on like this, it can't be played at the critical moment!

During the official timeout, Adelman made adjustments to keep Bibby and Jordan at the top.

Spider-Man's side......

Although the Spider-Man scored less than the first half in the third and fourth quarters, he was so active in running to contain the defense, and the consumption was definitely no less than in the first half!

As Adelman analyzed, Li Ao ran for three and a half quarters without a second of rest, and the consumption was indeed not small.

But when the official timeout came back, he saw that the opponent's defense of him had decreased, the outside line did not move early to limit his run, receive the ball, and the inside line did not move in advance when he ran back and cut in...... He decisively took over the offensive banner and opened up!

Regardless of his three-seven-twenty-one, just vote.

He plays very simply, very simply, running, receiving the ball, this opponent can't limit him with one defense and one defense.

After receiving the ball, regardless of whether the opponent pounced on him or not, he turned around and shot directly.

The opponent made up for it, and if the cap was not there, he also threw it directly, and was stuck to the jump limit, and he avoided the block when he leaned back.

Resolutely do not dribble!

Take advantage of the orange-level 'Tracy's elbow pads' and the full-level 'Catch and Shoot Expert' to the extreme!

The further the game went, the more waves he thrown, and he threw it directly when two people pounced, and frantically took the initiative to ask for the ball, as if the other party didn't know what he was going to throw.

After fighting the whole offense, Jordan was tired after the first half of the game, and now he is struggling to support, counting on Spider-Man.

Li Ao, who only shot 3 times in the first half of the quarter, from 6 minutes 22 seconds to 11 minutes 33 seconds, more than 5 minutes, swept more than 9 percent of the Clippers' shots, they shot 11 times as a team, he shot 10 times alone, the only time he didn't shoot, or O'Neal Jr. grabbed the offensive rebound and made up for the basket, and didn't score.

He shot 4-of-8, missed 1 three-point shot, hit a cut-and-catch layup, and hit a counterattack to follow up on the ball and make two free throws.

In 5 minutes and 11 seconds, Li Ao made 5 of 10 shots, plus 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 12 points!

The Clippers' offensive performance in these five minutes was not as good as the first three and a half quarters, and their shooting percentage in the first three and a half quarters was close to 6 percent, and they only shot 5 of 11 in these minutes, a 45% shooting rate.

But the Kings were even worse, scoring just 11 points on 4-of-10 shooting!

At 125-123, the Kings only led the Clippers by two points!

With 27 seconds left, the Kings called a timeout to set up key ball tactics, but the timeout seemed to be useless, and they were iron in the past two rounds, and the key ball shot after the pause was also iron.

Peja, who scored 32 points on 12-of-19 shooting and 6-of-10 three-pointers, missed the key three-pointers! Smash on the neck of the basket!

O'Neal Jr. was in the position of the card, and Jordan, who was shrinking on the wing, worked hard to guard the rebounding ball.

With 9 seconds left, Jordan did not call a timeout, and he was used to playing beside the Zen master, and his first reaction at the critical moment was to look for scoring opportunities on the spot.

As soon as he landed, he passed the ball to Bibby.

Bibby is a standard 'executive system' point guard, with leadership and court command skills, not bad, but the execution is very good.

Seeing Li Ao, who was about to go down, Bibby understood what Jordan meant, and received the ball and advanced quickly.

Li Ao entered the three-point line and beckoned for the ball.

Although Bibi felt that Li Ao seemed to be unable to rush, the other party asked for it, and he had no chance to be stuck with white chocolate here, so he made a decisive shot.

Doug Christie, who retreated to the backcourt with Li Ao, failed to complete the steal, and the ball was received by Li Ao.

But Doug Christie didn't panic, he was sure he had taken it and just kept sticking it...... Mommy, Varco!

Li Ao, who received the ball, was like a chicken blood, and his speed suddenly increased, and Doug Christie didn't have time to reach out and pull it!

Li Aoyun grabbed the ball in one step, jumped up in two steps in a row, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!

125-125, Li Ao scored 14 points in the second half of the quarter, and the Kings tied the score 14-11!

With 2.6 seconds left, the Kings called a timeout!

After landing, Li Ao took a deep breath and opened his arms to enjoy the cheers of the fans.

Playing to this point, he threw it more than a dozen times in a single quarter, even if he didn't care about defense, at most he ran and caught the ball in the positional battle, and he couldn't get rid of the opponent by counterattacking and sprinting.

Fortunately, there is a bonus of 'marathon level 3', his physical strength has increased slightly, he has been given space to receive the ball, and his physical strength has recovered to its best within 2 seconds after receiving the ball.

This dunk not only excited the fans at the scene, but also Li Ao and his teammates were also excited, and it seemed that the fatigue was swept away for a while.

Gentry replaced Big Q, Li Ao, Gerard Wallace, Matt Harplin, and Campbell to defend the opponent's last attack.

The prudent choice was correct, and when the timeout came back, the Kings managed to send the ball to Peja, who took advantage of the block to shake off the big Q, but the new force Gerard Wallace made up for it, and Peja received the ball and hit the three-pointer on the neck of the basket and bounced high!

When the ball falls out of the hoop range, the final whistle blows......

16 points in the first quarter, 13 points in the second quarter, 9 points in the third quarter, and 18 points in the final quarter, Li Ao played the whole game, shooting 20 of 38, including 2 of 6 three-pointers, plus 14 of 15 free throws, and scored 56 points!

Jordan finished with 26 points and five assists on 11-of-19 shooting, plus 4-of-6 free throws, and Bibby had 18 points and nine assists.

The three outside stars of the Clippers combined to score 100 points and drag the game into overtime!

The Clippers players were surprised that the game actually came to this, but they were very excited and emotional!

In terms of situation, they were pressed for a whole quarter and finally dragged each other into overtime!

Looking at Spider-Man, who scored 56 points, they have confidence!

On the other side, the Kings players were very explosive.

Webb had 28 points and six assists, Peja had 32 points and three assists, White Chocolate had six points and 12 assists, Bobby Jackson had 20 points and three assists, and Turkoglu had 14 points and seven assists...... The whole team scored 125 points and 34 assists, and was actually dragged into overtime!

After Spider-Man's score rose to 48 points, their defense was chaotic, and Spider-Man scored 8 points later.

Spider-Man throws the ball in the face of defense again and again, and even Webb begins to doubt life.

The break ended quickly, with both teams returning to their starting line-ups.

The mentality of the players in the two teams is very different.

The Clippers players all looked impatient.

The Kings players are visible to the naked eye and want to rest again.

The mood towards overtime also affected the performance of the two teams.

The Kings players started to decline in scoring in the second half of the final quarter, and now the decline is even worse.

Two minutes before overtime, the Kings didn't score a point!

In addition to being more motivated, the Clippers players also have better physical strength, and in the second half of the final quarter, Li Ao picked it up alone, and others thought of passing the ball to Li Ao's hands, although there was also physical exertion, but it was much better than the Kings.

Especially O'Neal Jr., who only played 28 minutes in regular time, scored 4 points in a row in overtime, and then Jordan scored a catch-and-shoot shot, and the Clippers played a wave of 6-0 to stop the Kings.

After the timeout, the Kings switched to Bobby Jackson and started scoring, but the defense had to shrink.

After a moment's crossing, Li Ao went into action, returning a three-pointer after Bobby Jackson scored a three-pointer.

After Webb hit a mid-range shot, Li Ao cut in to catch the ball and hit a layup on Peja.

Li Ao scored this goal, and the King's mentality completely collapsed.

In the final 1 minute, both teams did not score, and the final whistle sounded again amid the frantic cheers of the fans in attendance......

The Clippers players and coaches on the sidelines all poured into the stadium and gathered around Li Ao.

22 of 40 shots, including 3 of 7 three-pointers, plus 14 of 15 free throws, Li Ao soared 61 points, 4 boards, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, leading the Clippers to a narrow 136-130 victory over the Kings in overtime!

At this moment, Li Ao wanted to lie down immediately, but no, his face had to be tightened.

The post-match interview is here!

The Time Warner reporter said: "Congratulations to Spider-Man, you have become the new Mr. 60 points, you played the whole game tonight and won hard, what do you want to say to your teammates, fans, opponents now?" ”

"Tough? No, it's easy, everything was expected and it wasn't hard for me to get 61 points at all. ”

Reporter: ( ̄┏Д┓ ̄°*)

You're not tired? Relaxing? Can the voice not tremble?

Can you not cross your waist and don't look like you're going to fall?

However, with 61 points, Spider-Man will definitely pretend to be a force, and reporters who often interview the Clippers on behalf of Time Warner are used to it.

The reporter continued: "Did you end the Kings' 65-win hopes, and if you win the final game, you will have 65 wins and a regular season title, which is beyond your expectations for this season?" ”

"Maybe it exceeded expectations...... But this is just a new beginning for us, and for us, it's just the beginning. ”

Back in the locker room, Li Ao wiped off his sweat, and Da Q bought the supper back.

After using the body's physiotherapy function, he felt like he was alive after nibbling on a hamburger.

His brain is still very swollen, and he is looking for shooting opportunities in every round tonight, helping his teammates contain the defense, and responding to the ...... It takes not only physical strength, but also brain.

Take a shower, go home and sleep!

was applying ice to Jordan and watched Li Ao eat a big meal and then staggered to the bathroom, wanting to scold his mother.

This recovery ability is too strong!

He didn't even go so far back then!

Although it was not the first time he had seen it, Jordan couldn't help but marvel.

He thought of a legend he had heard when he was vice president of the Wizards — that Hamilton would get up earlier than usual on training days or game days to run a half-marathon and move his body out of order to perform well in training and games.

The recovery ability of the great spider is a match for the legend of Hamilton.

With such a recovery ability, if Li Ao's physical strength is better, Jordan estimates that tonight will not be as simple as 61 points.

There is an upper limit to physical strength, which does not mean that as long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to improve, but Li Ao only turned 21 years old in the summer, and you can see the improvement of physical strength during this season...... Jordan is looking forward to how fierce Spider-Man will be in another three or four years.

While looking forward to it, Jordan felt a little unhappy because he saw others take 60+ with his own eyes...... The elusive character of the character is manifested.

When Li Ao washed his name, the outside world had already exploded.

Li Ao, who is not yet 21 years old, has become the youngest Mr. 60 points in NBA history!

Big Shark, Black Mamba, and Spider-Man can all get 60+, and it's really the Los Angeles Big Three.

After Li Ao hit his last layup, the torment time for Lakers fans came again.

Some good deeds ran to the major basketball forums to build buildings: "Lakers fans, please say what you think about Spider-Man's 61 points." ”

The score of this game has also become a hot topic of hype among the media and fans.

Seven of the top 10 single-game scoring games this season were played by the Clippers, including the top five.

But the two highest-scoring games were also played by the Clippers.

In the opening game against the Lakers, the two teams combined for 266 points, and tonight against the Kings, the same score is 266.

Is this an offensive team or a defensive team?

Looking at the average points scored and conceded per game, 99.9 points per game in 81 games and 92.3 points per game...... Not offensive, not defensive.

It's a combination of offense and defense!

If the Clippers can score at least 109 points in the final game, they can become the same team as the Lakers and Kings to score more than 100+ points per game and win more than 7 points!

On the 19th, a rest day, the team did not arrange training today, and Li Ao did not practice in the morning, but took his son to watch Conan.

Li Ao's mother stared at her unlucky son for a while, and finally decided to give up the idea of letting her son change cartoons for baby education films.

It's rare for the son to have time to take his grandson, so he went with him, and then she will watch baby education films when she brings it herself.

Today, Li Ao rested for a whole day and changed his mind, and now that he gets the ball, he will recall the feeling of making a crazy shot last night.

You have to get rid of the unconventional way of playing.

There is such a thing as soaring high scores, but you can't expect how many points you can score in the next game, and the opportunity will naturally come.

In the evening, Li Ao saw the battle report, and the Kings defeated the Suns 106-91 in back-to-back home games at home and abroad, improving their record to 64-18.

The gorgeous king has not given up the last shred of hope!

If the Clippers lose to the Timberwolves tomorrow, they will have a tie with the Kings, and according to the rules, they will play the game first, then the game zone, the final score zone, and the home record...... When it comes to the division record, their Clippers can't get past it.

The Clippers have played 24 times against teams in the same division this season, losing seven times.

The Kings, counting last night's loss, lost six times.

Lakers fans are also jumping on the ground now, expecting the Clippers to lose to the Timberwolves tomorrow more than Kings fans, donning their vests and becoming Kings fans and Timberwolves fans.

How much they looked down on their next-door neighbors at the beginning, how mad they are now.

It's not just because they missed out on Spider-Man, they change teams to get Spider-Man and Rise, they don't have that many emotions, but the next-door neighbor just can't.

Li Ao's mentality has been adjusted, and after brushing the forum for a while, he turned on the system.

After last night's game, he received the basic reward of the quest 'Gorgeous King', 1 level 4 skill upgrade card.

Extra rewards or something, if you don't get it, you don't get it, it's not that he doesn't work hard, but the opponent is too strong.

Thinking back to last night's game now, he no longer thinks of the crazy shots that kill the opponent, but the pressure to lose if he doesn't throw the ball in.

He looked at the list of skills and chose to continue to strengthen the singles, and promoted the 'Vertical Master'.

"Longitudinal Master Level 4: When the host officiate offense uses lateral movement to get rid of the defense, 1. The rhythm of the dribble behind the back is improved, 2. The lateral movement is +2, 3. The burst acceleration is +2, 4. The ball is controlled +2, and 5. The all-round shot is +2."

Added a shot bonus! Li Ao shouted "Ouye", and in the future, he also had a shooting bonus when he dribbled behind his back and turned around to shoot, and he was promoted to the full level, and 5 bonuses could be strengthened again.

After a night's rest, on April 20, the last game day of the regular season arrived.

At 7:40 p.m., at Staples Center, the Timberwolves were the first to enter the court, and the much-anticipated regular season championship battle was about to begin.

"Minnesota Timberwolves, 49-32, averaging 101.3 points per game and conceding 98.6 points per game......"

Li Ao looked at the report of the opposite team and was not very embarrassed.

In the early part of the season, the Timberwolves were the team to compete with them for the first place in the West, and 60 wins were not a problem, and 65 wins were possible.

Now, I can't even get 50 wins.

However, although he asserted that the opponent could not win 50 wins, he was not careless.

A good portion of the 32 games the Timberwolves have lost have come in the middle of the season.

Since March, the Timberwolves' performance has still been at the 50-win level, which is not much worse than last season.

None of the Western Conference playoff teams are good at stubble.

The two losses to the Jazz and the SuperSonics make him dare not be careless now.

After the players of both teams played, Li Ao observed his teammates, and they were all very focused on preparing for the game, so there was no need to worry.

His teammates' determination to win 65 and their desire to win the regular season championship are no less than his.

The Clippers are full of fighting spirit, and the Timberwolves are also full of fighting spirit.

Garnett is very unhappy now, there are many people who are eager to see them win, and there are a lot of media and fans cheering for them, after all, the Lakers fans are 60E, and the Kings have more passers-by fans this year...... However, he knew that those people were just treating them as pure tools.

But the more so, the more he wanted to win!

Lakers fans and Kings fans cheer for them like this, don't they just think that their Timberwolves can't beat the Clippers?

He's going to win for them!

The Clippers started steadily, and the Timberwolves fielded a starting lineup of Billups, Szczebiak, Gary Trent, Garnett, and Nesterovich.

At 8 p.m., the regular season curtain call between the Clippers and the Timberwolves begins.

Garnett takes the lead in a defensive battle!

He playfully made up for it in the middle range, aggressively contracted, and that crazy energy seemed to be cut off by the opposite Clippers.

Under Garnett's leadership, the Timberwolves really defended the Clippers in the first quarter!

With 7 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 2 blocks in a single quarter, Garnett led the Timberwolves to limit the Clippers to just 18 points.

However, although the Clippers were hindered on the offensive end and were shocked by Garnett's strong defense, they also did a good job defensively, allowing the Timberwolves to score only 19 points.

In the second quarter, the Clippers adjusted their offense properly and maintained their first-quarter performance on the defensive end, going 25-19.

At halftime, the Clippers led the Timberwolves by 5 points at 43-38!

After returning from halftime, the Clippers went one step further and blossomed in the third quarter, playing a 29-22 single-quarter score to stretch the difference to 12 points and lead 72-60!

Fans in the stadium have begun to celebrate winning the regular season championship, and Kings fans and Lakers fans in front of the TV have lost hope in the Timberwolves.

However, the Timberwolves didn't give up!

During the break, Garnett and Billups agreed that the former would be responsible for defense and the latter would be responsible for offense and individual defense.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Garnett and his teammates recreated the defense of the first quarter, opening the game with the Clippers only making one three-pointer in four minutes and not scoring free throws.

Billups scored two three-pointers in a row, and then broke through to the layup at 4:02 to make it 2+1, and after he hit a free throw, the Clippers called a timeout!

Billups scored 9 points alone and beat the Clippers 9-3 to chase the score to 69-75, narrowing the gap to 6 points!

Gentry quickly adjusted his defense and set up a star one-on-one strategy.

After the timeout, the Clippers called a timeout but failed to interrupt the Timberwolves' hand, and defensive adjustments failed to affect the Timberwolves' offensive firepower.

Billups and Garnett are singles with one ball and one ball! Full fire!

However, the Clippers are mentally prepared for this, and Li Ao and Jordan are also on fire!

Playing 9 minutes and 36 seconds, the Timberwolves scored 83 points, and in more than 5 minutes, Billups and Garnett combined for 14 points, and the firepower could not be more fierce.

But what frustrated them was that the opposite side also scored 12 points during this time, and the score increased to 87 points, and the opposite side still had the ball!

When the Clippers attacked, Bibby received a pass back from Li Ao, at this time Li Ao and Jordan pinned down the opposing defense's wings, Bibby accurately sent the ball to the basket, and O'Neal Jr. received the ball and leaned on Mark Jackson (center) for a layup.

89-83, the Clippers continued to maintain a six-point lead!

When the Timberwolves attacked, Garnett broke through and made a layup to make it 2+1 and narrow the gap to 3 points.

Back on the defensive end, Garnett saw that the opponent had gods and heroes on both wings, and a small shark under the basket, so he took a gamble and contracted the defense!

Timberwolves players under Garnett's command have 5 defenses and 4 from the near range.

Matt Hardlin picked up the pass and passed the ball back to the top arc, and Bibby was empty.

Bibi, who played 31 minutes and only scored 6 points on 3-of-9 shooting, did not hesitate and made a three-point shot...... Entered!

92-86, the Clippers continue to lead by 6 points!

Billups then stepped back and hit a long-range three-pointer from a meter away from the top arc to close the gap to three again.

When it came to the Clippers' offense, Garnett chose to continue to fight, he had no other way, they could no longer play the defense in the first and last few minutes, and they could only defend like this.

Bibby continues to shoot from beyond the three-point line...... Again!

95-89, the Clippers still lead by 6 points!

When it came to the Timberwolves' offense, Billups, who had already scored 17 points in a single quarter, was also ineffective, and he stepped back to hit the iron with three points! O'Neal Jr. protects the defensive rebound!

Switching offense and defense, the Clippers continued the tactics of the first two rounds, and when Bibby received a return pass at the top arc, Garnett, who was defending Li Ao, saved, and Bibby decisively distributed the ball to Li Ao.

Li Ao catches the ball and shoots...... Billups was knocked back by a pounced on him and fell to the floor.

But by the time he was hit by Billups, he had already thrown the ball out quickly.

With the referee's whistle, the ball plunged into the basket!

'Tracy's Elbow Pads' 20% adaptive shooting acceleration made a difference when it mattered!

Li Ao fell to the ground and fell backwards, and a carp jumped up and rushed to the top arc and Bibi high-fived amid the cheers of the fans.

Bibi looked at the unlucky junior brother and didn't want to deal with it, but the junior brother threw it, so he gave it a high-five.

Li Ao was afraid that he had chosen the wrong person, he should find the god of basketball, his senior brother had always been indifferent and ruthless, but fortunately he gave face this time.

Li Ao hit a free throw, there were 20 seconds left in the time, the score was 98-89, and Li Ao's 2+1 locked the win!

In the final 20 seconds, the Timberwolves didn't call a timeout, the Clippers were also out of guard, and after Szczebiak burst in and hit a layup, the Clippers used up the remaining seconds.

At 10:25 p.m., the final whistle blew.

98-91, the Clippers beat the Timberwolves to improve their record to 65 wins
