The game was broadcast live by Chaoting Channel.
Before the game started, in the live broadcast booth, Yu Jia said: "Today is the Trail Blazers' away game against the Clippers. It is also the first game after the All-Stars won the AMVP. The opponent against the King is DeAndre Jordan. Through past games, we can It can be seen that the king is quite good at beating him."
This is the start of the game.
Jordan is indeed the league's top jumper. He touched the ball first and got the right to attack.
"Yes!"
After Paul got the ball, he looked at Jordan with a little surprise, but more of it was excitement.
He has not forgotten how Tristos targeted himself and Durant during the All-Star Game. Durant didn't care, but for targeting him, the Blazers must pay a price.
He is bound to win tonight's game!
"Yo, the Clippers have the ball!"
Yang Yi also sounded a little surprised.
On the court, Jordan was jumping towards the basket while looking back at Wang Zelin, full of gunpowder.
To outsiders, Jordan looked like he was saying "Look, I'm awesome!" at this moment. Wang Zelin was extremely speechless.
Didn't you just beat me once in jumping? Have fun watching it!
Paul pushed forward while eating, passed Lillard's stealing hand, suddenly jumped up, and threw the ball.
Griffin and Jordan, who were standing under the basket respectively, saw the ball coming. They were instantly filled with adrenaline and jumped up to grab the ball like a roc spreading its wings.
"You want to play an alley-oop dunk at the beginning?"
At this moment, nearly 20,000 people inside Staples held their breath and looked at the direction the ball was passing.
"Snapped!"
Jordan touched the ball first than Griffin. Just when Griffin felt a little regretful, a big yellow-skinned hand also pressed up.
"Get down here!"
Wang Zelin roared in his heart, and all the energy in his body was accumulated in his right hand, pressing down Jordan with the ball.
When it comes to strength, Wang Zelin, whose upper and lower body strength attributes are gradually approaching the limit of 99, has long been unable to find a player in the league who can match him.
"no!"
Clippers fans in the stands exclaimed and expressed regret, but more people chose to cover their eyes with their hands. This scene looked too cruel.
After both landed, Jordan stumbled, failed to stabilize his center of gravity, and sat down on the floor. Wang Zelin was not much better. Although he was not as embarrassed as Jordan, he also lost the opportunity to fight for the ball immediately.
Fortunately, Griffin, who was closest to the long press, reacted quickly. As soon as the ball was released from Jordan's hand, Griffin took two steps forward, grabbed the ball, pulled a green onion from dry land, and poured the ball into the basket.
The Clippers started 2:0 against the Trail Blazers!
"Blake~Griffin!!!"
Although the process was a bit bumpy, fortunately the ending was good. After the dunk was successful, the home DJ immediately roared out, which instantly aroused the emotions of the fans in the audience. Everyone cheered and applauded Griffin.
Trail Blazers offense.
Wang Zelin was not in a hurry to enter the frontcourt, but took his time.
Comparing the lineup, the inside duo in the Clippers' starting lineup are undoubtedly among the best in the league in running and jumping ability. It is obviously unwise to fight against the Clippers and compete with them on the fast break.
The best strategy is to get down firmly and torture them to death with a slow pace!
First, he led Jordan around in a circle under the basket and on the right wing. Wang Zelin suddenly turned around and ran towards the right waist. At this time, Lillard threw the ball in.
When it comes to court control and organization, Lillard is far inferior to Paul, the god of point guards, but they can't stand such tactics. The Trail Blazers have already practiced it for a long time. Wang Zelin and Lillard have such a tacit understanding of cooperation. You have me I have you.
As a result, Paul did not react immediately to this pass, so he made the fastest block.
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin, facing the basket, raised his hand to pull one out.
Later, Jordan followed.
Griffin, who was in the short corner on the left wing, was frightened by Wang Zelin's powerful offensive threat. He also came over to defend, hoping to bandage together with Jordan.
However, Wang Zelin fell into his trap.
Wang Zelin jumped up, raised the ball with both hands, and smashed it in...
"boom!"
There was a loud noise under the basket, and the Clippers generals took a look. Who else was hanging on the railing than Aldridge?
"Blake, keep an eye on your man!"
This defense made Paul extremely dissatisfied and couldn't help but give a reminder. The goal today is to win, and he will never allow his teammates to fall behind.
"Mine! Mine!"
Griffin didn't think so much. Besides, what Paul just said happened to him in previous games. Not just for him, but for other teammates as well.
To a certain extent, there are really very few old-school players in the league who are strict with others and themselves like Paul.
Another bigot in Los Angeles is just like Paul, maybe even more so!
As long as you can withstand the psychological pressure exerted by the opponent as a teammate with this type of player, your strength will grow much faster than with some mediocre guys who only think about fishing all day long.
well, let's get back to business.
Back on the field.
As soon as Paul came up, his desire to survive was visibly strong. The captain tonight was a little aggressive, and so were the Clippers.
After the first quarter, the Clippers, who played their own characteristics, performed superbly at 34:23, allowing them to lead the Trail Blazers by 11 points in a single quarter.
Among them, Paul himself made 3 of 4 shots in a single quarter, scoring 6 points, 4 assists, 1 rebound, 1 steal and 0 turnovers...
Chris Pao's performance today can only be described in 4 words;
Quite explosive!
To be honest, the Trail Blazers' 23 points in a single quarter was really not bad, and it was a normal performance in previous games. It's just that he can't stand up to the opponent's superb performance.
Fortunately, since the start of this season with 13 consecutive victories, the Trail Blazers have had ups and downs along the way. As the team leader, Wang Zelin, as well as the other two core players Lillard and Aldridge, have all seen strong winds and waves.
The 11-point difference was not enough to shock them. This was just the first quarter. If the Clippers wanted to win, it was not that simple.
Back in the second quarter, Coach Terry unexpectedly did not continue to use the full lineup. In other words, he didn't focus on the 11 points at all and started to rotate the lineup as usual.
The Trail Blazers came up with the combination of Mo Williams + Connett Lee + Yi Jianlian + Adams... It seems that they forgot to mention the candidate for the backup small forward.
There is a new person in this position - Charity·World Peace!
Of course, perhaps fans would prefer to call him another name: Ron Artest!
en... There is a story. When Wang Zelin learned that the new player recruited by the team before the trade deadline was Ci Shiping, or Artest, his mood was surprised, and even a little weird.
what happened?
Does the management think the team's "combat effectiveness" is not enough? Another thug was called in.
That's right, Artest's first impression on Wang Zelin was that of a thug!
