13 points of great reversal! Clippers rushed to second place! The whole team won the game with 0 frontcourt boards, and the Big Four scored 84 points
On February 11, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Clippers played at home against the Pistons. There was no one-sided situation in this game, the Pistons came up with a good momentum, and then the Clippers fell behind by 13 points at one point, but then the Clippers began to fight back and successfully turned the situation around in the final quarter, George ushered in a big explosion in this quarter. In the end, the Clippers defeated the Pistons 112-106 and refused to lose streak.
In this game, the Clippers came up with a good momentum and achieved a 12-2 offensive, thinking that they would always take the initiative, but then the Pistons directly responded with a wave of 12-2 offensive, and then the two teams fell into a tug-of-war, and the Clippers fell into a slump and began to fall into passivity, trailing by 9 points at halftime. In the second half, the Clippers began to slowly get into the groove on the offensive end and began to close the score, Harden took the lead in the final quarter, and then George scored consecutive points on an inside and outside shot to help the team establish an advantage, and finally helped the team defeat the Pistons 112-106.
This time, the Clippers once again fell into passivity inside, with 35-57 rebounds and a net loss of 22 Pistons and a 0-14 frontcourt board. This is the first time in the history of the Clippers that there has been a single game with zero frontcourt boards, and what is even more surprising is that they actually won the game, which is also a bit crazy. The Clippers still have to adjust this, and if they want to break out of the West, the interior is still very important, after all, there are strong interior Jokic and Davis here.
And the Big Four also broke out together, scoring 84 points together, which is also the key to the team's victory. Among them, George finally ushered in an explosion, scoring 15 points alone in the final quarter and scoring 33 points in the game, Leonard got 24 points and 5 assists, Harden had 14 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, and Wei Shao scored 13 points off the bench. When the Big Four have such a performance, the Clippers are indeed difficult to beat. After beating the Pistons, coupled with the Thunder's loss, the Clippers went straight to the second place in the West.
The Pistons are also a pity this time, and after the game, head coach Monty blamed the referee for blowing the penalty, and the free throws fell behind 7-26, and the Pistons were not taken care of. This time, Cunningham played well, with a double-double of 22 points and 10 assists, Ivey also had 23 points, and new recruit Fontecchio had 20 points and 9 rebounds, providing firepower for the team.
