The Los Angeles Clippers seem to have been in trouble lately, losing back-to-back losses to eastern powerhouses raptors and cavaliers, and Tyronelu appears to be a bit of a donkey. The Clippers' roster talent today is indeed a bit bad, and there is no way to do it, after all, the team's top three scorers, Cargoorgio Jr. and Powell, are unable to play because of injuries. However, in the eighth position in the West, the Clippers are still very secure, after all, the Lakers behind them continue to lose. This game, the Clippers will head on the road to challenge the Utah Jazz, the fourth-place team in the West.
The Jazz are naturally better than the Clippers, but in this game, the Jazz are also plagued by injuries, mitchell and Poldanovic can not play, you know, these two are the Jazz's two best scorers. Facing such a Jazz team, can Tyrone lu lead the Clippers to end the losing streak?

In the second half, Tyronelu had no choice but to use the bench lineup, Reggie and Morris Jr. and Batum did not play, the team finally got 24 points in a single quarter, but the Jazz also scored 24 points, so the point difference was still 37 points. After returning from the final quarter, the Clippers bench began to exert power, Haltenstein had 4 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals, yes, you read that right, a center sent 7 assists in a single quarter, and the Clippers bombed 34 points in a single quarter, but only at the end of the final game, chasing the score to 92-121, still a 29-point fiasco.
