Beijing time on February 11, the NBA regular season continues, the Lone Ranger home to meet the Clippers, before this battle the two teams have a lot of moves, the Clippers sent Ibaka to get Ojele and Hood, even if the Clippers double star is not there, they still will not be bad, the Lone Ranger side finally sent Porzingis away, which may be a relief for them.
As soon as the game came up, Doncic was out of control, a single quarter of the bombardment of 28 points, early to open the point difference, people did not expect that the Clippers in this game to play enough resilience, and even once caught up with the score, until the last moment of the game, Doncic two free throws, locked the win, and finally the Lone Ranger 112-105 narrowly defeated the Clippers, the Lone Ranger ushered in four consecutive wins at the same time to the Clippers three consecutive losses.
To be honest, it is not easy for the Lone Rangers to win this game, although the Clippers have lost two main players, but they have played enough resilience, perhaps the Clippers are not too competitive this season, but seeing such a perfect lineup can't help but want to give the Clippers applause, and when Little Card and George return, the Clippers are still contenders for the championship. Next we talk about the Lone Ranger, with the departure of Porzingis, the Lone Ranger's internal line was severely damaged, fortunately, Doncic played well, 7 three-pointers in a single quarter created a lone ranger single quarter three-point record, if it were not for Doncic's outstanding performance, perhaps the Lone Ranger wanted to defeat the Clippers to have a lot of difficulties, in fact, fans who watch the whole game should be clear, Doncic did not use his full strength, and even said that the last moment was playing, in addition to the 28 points in the first quarter, Doncic in the second quarter only had 3 shots, Especially in the fourth quarter of the game, he gave up the attack and only shot once. Doncic finished the game with 51 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists, making him the first player in the history of the Lone Rangers to have 50 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in a single game.
In fact, the grudge between the Clippers and the Lone Rangers was planted as early as two years ago, when Doncic first entered the league, with the Lone Rangers successfully entered the playoffs, but they faced the powerful Clippers, and finally the Lone Rangers still lost, this is Doncic's first playoff trip, so unfortunately fell at the feet of the Clippers, the next year, the Lone Rangers continued to play in the playoffs, coincidentally the same face the Clippers, in the case of a big score lead, was reversed by the Clippers again, Doncic lost to the Clippers twice in the playoffs at the same time, Maybe this is Doncic's regret, but I have to admit that Doncic is really too powerful, the first time in the playoffs to play the Clippers, averaging 31 points, 9.8 rebounds and 8.7 assists per game, and the next year directly raised the data to 35.7 points, 7.9 rebounds and 10.3 assists, although in the end it was all lost, but Doncic created a lot of trouble for the Clippers. Doncic averaged 32 points, 8.3 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game in this career game against the Clippers, which is definitely the Clippers' biggest nemesis.
Doncic is such a player, he always loves to create surprises for people, the excessive recuperation in the offseason makes Doncic fat, and the state after coming back is even more incomparable, with the deepening of the season, Doncic can always make self-adjustments, although Doncic has not been selected for the All-Star starting lineup this season, but this is more of an incentive for the 22-year-old Doncic, he is moving forward step by step with the Lone Ranger, and the biggest change of the Lone Ranger this season is the improvement of defensive ability. The Lone Rangers have a defensive efficiency of 106.9 this season, ranking fifth in the league, averaging 103.2 points per game, ranking third in the league, and the reason why they are still in the fifth position in the West is because they lack a trace of firepower on the offensive end, and with the recovery of Doncic's state, perhaps they will create a better record.
