On February 4, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Clippers played at home against the Lakers. Yesterday the Lakers finally won, difficult to beat the Blazers, today back-to-back game, old Zhan continued to truce, before the game Tyren Lu is more confident, said to pinch the thick eyebrows. To tell the truth, throughout the first half, the Lakers had no rhythm, in the words of Teacher Yin Hai, in the case of Wei Shao's poor offensive state, the Lakers lacked effective offensive launches. Munch did try to string the whole team together, but Anthony's hamstring strain made the Lakers worse. In the second half, the Clippers slowly opened up the point difference, playing until the fourth quarter, Westbrook led the connecting section to catch up with the score, after which the Lakers have not given up, in the last minute, Munch's three-pointer helped the Lakers rebound, but Morris Jr. responded with three points. Westbrook assisted Davis's dunk, and Reggie scored on a layup, thick eyebrows made the last shot of iron, and finally the Lakers lost to the Clippers 110-111!
Let's start with the data. On the Lakers side, Davis had 30 points and 17 rebounds, Westbrook 17 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, Munch 21 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, Howard 7 points and 4 rebounds, Tucker 9 points, and Anthony 7 points. On the Clippers side, Reggie had 25 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, Morris Jr. had 29 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, Ibaka had 20 points and 9 rebounds, and Kennard had 10 points.
Tyrenlu did value this game and came up with their strongest squad, Card Jr. and George were not there, but the whole team framework was there, Ibaka + Maurice Jr. + Batum trio, can put pressure on thick eyebrows at both ends of the attack and defense. The biggest weakness of the Lakers side is that the entire lineup is too small, except for the thick eyebrows, the remaining four positions do not have much advantage, and the most important thing is that the Clippers' entire conduction ball is too smooth, they can always find Little Morris, Kennard and Reggie on the outside, and many times the Lakers are faced with two choices: turn to the thick eyebrows, either he goes to the outside line to block, or let the opponent shoot three points! There are too many such scenes in the game, the small Morris big empty position, Ibaka big empty position, the Lakers' outside defense is indeed a big problem, Wei Shao interference limit is not timely, the height is not enough, but as long as the thick eyebrows are pulled out, Terrenlu must punish the Lakers inside line, which is why Ibaka can easily get 20 points today.
Still have to start from Wei Shao, do not know how to evaluate him, the entire first half, Wei Shao played 17 minutes, 1 of 7 with 4 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, the fourth quarter of Wei Shao's performance has improved, with a connection section to play a wave of 8-0 to catch up with the score, the key moment is Wei Shao bombarded three points to chase only 4 points. Westbrook's flaw was his instability, and it was difficult for Vogel to develop tactics for him. It is reasonable to say that Wei Shao should have more energy on the defensive end, but today Wei Shao missed how many three-pointers, the Clippers shot 13 three-pointers in the whole game today, or wei shao defense did not arrive in time, always 1 second slower, catch the Lakers misplaced, or let the players with thick eyebrows easily find a gap on the outside line, and Reggie is really unreasonable to shoot three points against people, this is the confidence of the Clippers, the Lakers defense is not changed! To tell the truth, the lineup led by Wei Shao in the connection section is still quite good, mainly the end of Tucker, Howard, Andthony, but in the starting lineup, Wei Shao's presence is very small and small. Looking at the performance of Wei Shao's defensive end, referring to his offensive end performance in the fourth quarter, it can only be said that Wei Shao's achievements are mixed.
Thick eyebrows are really tired today. Vogel only gave Howard 10 minutes, but also back-to-back, the Clippers' wheel tactics worked, not only Ibaka and Mo, but also Hardten, the Clippers this kind of internal pressure, with Reggie, Batum and others to impact the basket, in fact, give Howard more time, it is not easy to defend, because Howard's footsteps are slower than thick eyebrows, and he is even more unable to keep up with the rhythm of his opponents. The game played to the fourth quarter, the Lakers Led by Westbrook chased only 4 points, which was more reflective of Howard's value at that time, because Morris Jr., Ibaka and others were not present, and Howard's blocking and blocking and guarding the frame were very efficient. It was also a change in Vogel, at least giving Davis a few minutes of rest in the fourth quarter. In the last moments of the game, we saw that Davis could still create a threat under the basket, but the Lakers did not pause in the last moment, and there was no way to arrange the tactics of the last attack, which was a pity to lose, but it was good to try.
After these two games, in fact, the overall performance of the Lakers is now improving, Davis steadily contributed about 30 points of data, although the overall downturn of Wei Shao, but the key moments can always bring some surprises to the fans. Munch has worked hard, organized and connected a grasp, and he is indeed the Lakers' biggest gain this season. Of course, Ariza also performed well today, but the Clippers' shooting efficiency today is indeed very high, there are more opportunities to catch the Lakers' misalignment, and the Lakers' front line is really lacking. Can only wait for James to return, in addition to hoping that Anthony is not a big problem, the Lakers can not withstand the torture of injuries.
