The Clippers won again today.
George was out of the game, but even so, the Clippers laughed to the end.
Here I have to admire Lu's guidance to know people and make good use of them.
During the Cleveland period, the world thought that Tyrone Lu had no ink on his chest and would only die of James. Without Old Zhan, he will do nothing.
But now Lu Yuanwai has proved with practical actions that he really has superiority in being a head coach.
Last season, with Leonard injured, Tyrenlu actively deployed the troops, reusing Reggie Jackson and Mann. The two of them transformed into the Odd Soldier and joined hands with George to help the team overcome the danger and reach the Western Finals.
One of the things that Tyrenlu does very well is that he is eclectic in terms of hiring people, dares to use people, is willing to give role players a chance, even if he is a newcomer, he is willing to give rookies a lot of play time and performance opportunities.
In today's game, he reused Brandon Jr. Boston.
There may be brothers who don't know the Boston player at all. Today I will introduce you to you.
Boston is 20 years old, 1 meter 98 tall and weighs 85 kilograms.
Boston was a five-star high school student, but when he entered college, his performance did not meet people's expectations, and he also exposed many weaknesses. He is thin, weak in confrontation, poor in strength, and in the face of high-intensity defense, technical movements are easily deformed.
He averaged 11.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game during his freshman year, shooting just 35.5 percent from the field and as low as 30 percent from three-point range. Poor projection, inefficient offense, poor shooting choices, these problems caused his draft pick to plummet, and no one cared about the No. 51 show. Later, he came to the Clippers and met Director Lou.
If this is in other teams, such as Boston, a recruit egg with low draft picks, a lonely style, and a bad defense, it is likely to become a marginal role in the team, either to be delegated to the development league to play, or to become a team water dispenser administrator, occasionally get the opportunity to appear in garbage time, and will not be reused by the team.
But Coach Lu is a coach who doesn't play by common sense, and he's willing to give Boston a chance. Allowed Boston to take the ball on the court and attack and play to their strengths.
In the previous game, Boston was suddenly activated, and he looked very surprised. After the game, he said that he didn't know that he would get a chance to play on stage today, but suddenly Lu Pointed to him and told him to play.
And Boston did not live up to Tyronlu's high hopes, and he proved himself with excellent performances after he came on the court.
Today he did the same, in the absence of big brother George, seized the opportunity, shooting 9 of 13, including 5 of 8 three-pointers, cutting 27 points, 2 boards and 4 steals, plus or minus +10. He scored the highest score in the game. His performance after the game attracted the praise of his teammates.
In today's game, Boston did play well, but don't be too proud and complacent, keep a humble heart, and keep up the good work.
