Although it was only a preseason game, this was Zhao Chen's first score with the Lakers.
This goal is also very meaningful.
Zhao Chen held up the three-point gesture and kept shaking back to defend. This is his unique celebration posture.
Lakers fans sent their fans shouting.
In the first two rounds, Zhao Chen played the point guard in a regular manner and provided two assists. However, in the third round, Zhao Chen did not follow the rules of his opponent.
Don’t talk about martial ethics, Chaoyuan LOGO just does it! !
The Lakers fans felt very comfortable inside, and they were all whispering to each other about Zhao Chen on the court.
Clippers attack.
Paul and Griffin's pick-and-roll. After the pick-and-roll, Griffin attacked the inside and wanted to dunk.
Boozer has no way to stop Griffin now and can only foul.
Griffin stepped to the free throw line.
Two free throws!
4 to 8.
Griffin's current style of play is flying and escaping, and it is not the kind that Griffin of the Pistons can compare with.
Lakers offense.
Zhao Chen passed Paul after two consecutive changes of direction.
It's not that Paul's defense is poor, but that Zhao Chen's offense is too strong.
Griffin and Barnes continued to attack Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen continued to feed Joe Harris outside the right three-point line.
Joe Harris is a rookie, and Redick is very unfamiliar with his way of playing. He has no idea that this guy plays exactly the same way as him.
Harris made a reverse run and was absolutely open. He caught the ball and shot, a standard shooter's posture!
"Uh-huh!"
4 to 11.
"Timeout!!!" Clippers coach Doc Rivers jumped out and shouted.
The Lakers' offense gave Rivers a headache.
There are too many empty seats!
Zhao Chen's offense attracted most of the Clippers' defensive attention, which allowed Zhao Chen to activate the entire team.
The fans at the scene were applauding and cheering for the Lakers.
In just three minutes, Zhao Chen's offensive and organizational skills made Lakers fans feel delighted.
Domestically, fans watching the game were also happy.
"Zhao Chen doesn't feel uncomfortable at all!"
"Super giant, really super giant. No matter where he is, his strength is there."
"The Lakers' new magician is here."
"Same as last season, the players defending Zhao Chen couldn't keep up with Zhao Chen's rhythm."
Domestic fans watching the live broadcast were cheering and tapping their keyboards.
Staples.
Zhao Chen walked off the field and high-fived his excited teammates.
Zhao Chen's face was very calm. It was very simple for Zhao Chen to perform well on the court, but it was very shocking to others.
Being a teammate with Zhao Chen is far more comfortable than being an opponent.
"Don't double attack, don't let him lead his teammates." Rivers shouted in his duck voice.
"Guard other people, I just have to guard him. When there is a pick-and-roll, the defense will change." Paul added next to him.
"no problem!"
"OK!"
The entire Clippers team can feel the transformation of the Lakers this season.
The Lakers' offense is so smooth and their tactics have changed a lot.
Pause back.
Redick used Griffin to get rid of Joe Harris and ran out of the gap. Paul passed the ball steadily.
Redick's 45-degree three-pointer simply shot!
"Uh-huh!"
7 to 11.
Redick's three-pointer was also very stable. Joe Harris wiped his sweat and was under great pressure.
"You will be better than him in the future." Zhao Chen encouraged Joe Harris.
Joe Harris nodded, Zhao Chen is a nice leader.
Lakers offense.
Zhao Chen continued to dribble to the frontcourt.
Screen, hand-off, running, sudden score!
Led by Zhao Chen, the Lakers' offense organized the ball in a good way.
Although there are no opportunities, everyone's concentration and enthusiasm are increasing.
After Joe Harris hit two three-pointers, he was followed by Redick and had no chance.
The Lakers' overall strength is still worse than the Clippers.
Zhao Chen also felt the Clippers' defensive changes.
The Clippers are on one-on-one defense!
Since it was a one-man defense, Zhao Chen was not polite.
Zhao Chen signaled to pull away.
After a series of rotations, it was Matt Barnes who defended Zhao Chen.
Matt Barnes is 2.01 meters tall and weighs 102 kilograms. On July 6, 2013, the Clippers gave him a three-year contract worth US$10.18 million.
Last season, Matt Barnes played 63 regular season games on behalf of the Clippers, averaging 9.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.
Barnes is not an offensive player, his role is mainly on the defensive end, and he is very confident in his defense.
Barnes clapped his hands and said to Zhao Chen: "Zhao, let me see the offensive strength of you, the Finals MVP!"
Zhao Chen ignored him.
Zhao Chen doesn't want anyone to talk trash to him now.
Barnes's level is not high enough, and his skills are the same whether he throws him or not.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Facing Barnes, Zhao Chen started dribbling frequently.
Staples fans cheered.
This move means that Zhao Chen will use his retreat step.
No surprises.
Zhao Chen's continuous crotch dribbling continued to torture Barnes' defensive mentality.
Left side!
Right!
Continuous changes of direction!
Barnes clearly knew that Zhao Chen's sudden step to the right was a fake move and that Zhao Chen wanted to retreat, but Barnes' body instinctively followed Zhao Chen's rhythm.
Zhao Chen retreated significantly to outside the three-point line! !
[Super step back]! !
Forcing space.
Take action steadily!
Although Barnes' delayed defense jumped into Zhao Chen's face.
But it's of no use.
The basketball draws a wonderful arc! !
"Shua!!"
7 to 14.
Zhao Chen used a combination of strong personal offense and team offense to ensure the Lakers' offensive firepower and continued to maintain the Lakers' 100% shooting percentage.
"Oh oh oh!!"
"Nice step back!"
“Fake, that’s so cool!!”
The Lakers fans at the scene were quickly conquered by Zhao Chen. They were intoxicated by Zhao Chen's series of smooth step-back three-point technical performances!
Super step back, this is Zhao Chen's signature singles technical move.
After completing the goal, Zhao Chen raised his hands high and shook his head to defend.
On the sidelines, Jim Buss told Kupchak: "Zhao's signing should be the best signing of my career."
Kupchak said: "BOSS is decisive enough. Not everyone dares to take such a big gamble."
One may be the top three first-rounders and four second-rounders, handing over the operating power!
Not every boss has the courage to provide these things.
Jim Bass was grinning from ear to ear.
Clippers attack.
Paul rushed in with the help of a pick-and-roll, and missed Hill's rhythm to make a short-range jump shot!
No solution! !
"Uh-huh!"
9 to 14.
Paul's short-range jumper is very solid.
Lakers offense.
After Zhao Chen dribbled the ball over, he saw that the defensive line had not changed much, and there was no trace of it.
Shout out for a Wesley Johnson pick-and-roll!
A gear change, another single.
Zhao Chen continued to beat Barnes.
Facing Barnes again, after continuous shaking, he chose to retreat more simply to collect the ball.
Although Barnes' defense interfered, it failed to prevent him from scoring.
"Uh-huh!"
9 to 17.
The Lakers still maintain a super high shooting percentage at home.
...
...
In the end, the score of this preseason game was 100 to 112, and the Lakers defeated the Clippers at home.
In this game, the main players on both sides played very little time, mainly warming up.
Zhao Chen only played 18 minutes, but in these 18 minutes, Zhao Chen scored a double-double of 20 points and 11 assists.
Zhao Chen's data doesn't look eye-catching, but it is the most efficient personal performance on the field.
In this game, some of the Lakers' rookies performed brilliantly, but others were sluggish.
Clarkson and Joe Harris played well, both scoring in double figures, but Dinwiddie and Grant did not perform so well. Not only did they not score, they also made many low-level mistakes.
Jokic did not play in this game.
New aid Tucker and Covington were steady, one scored 12 points and the other scored 8 points. Their steady performance ensured that the Lakers retained the victory until the end.
