The Clippers were challenged by the Jazz at home, falling behind in the first half, playing a Jedi counterattack in the third quarter and laughing to the end. The Clippers made it to the Western Conference Finals, and congratulations are here.
The Clippers' biggest contributor to this game was undoubtedly Mann, the rising star who played the Jazz with 39 points, scoring 20 points and 2 steals in the 11 minutes of the third quarter, shooting 8-of-11 and 4-of-6 from three-point range.
Terrance Mann started for Leonard in this game, played 36 minutes, in addition to scoring 39 points, there were 2 boards, 1 assist and 2 steals, 15 of 21 shots, 7 of 10 three-pointers, really attacking and defending, shocking the United States.
Mann, 24 years old with a height of 1.96 meters and an arm span of 2.03 meters, is the 48th show of 2019, from Florida State University, the school's more famous players include Sam Kassel and Yao Ming's former teammate Bob Sula, as well as Magic Isaac.
Scouting reports of the year showed that Mann was physically strong, fast and explosive, and improved every year, and the fixed jump shot and impact on the basket were impressive. He plays selflessly, is willing to share the ball with his teammates, is energetic on the defensive end, has no fear of hand-to-hand combat with opponents, and can defend multiple positions.
Mann has a mature playing style, is a great team player, and despite his age, still has potential to tap, and the Clippers chose him too wisely. It is worth mentioning that the Lakers had a chance to get Mann, but they missed it.
At that time, the Lakers selected Tucker Jr., who looked like he had more potential, with the No. 46 pick, missing Mann. Tucker Jr. is still failing to cash in on his talent and may move to other teams, while Mann shined in the playoffs and doesn't know if the Lakers will regret it.
Batum, 32, who is 2 meters 06 arm span 2 meters 15 meters tall, also played well in this game, he played 40 minutes to cut 16 points + 7 boards, and 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, shooting 6 of 9, 6 of 3 points, plus or minus +11, really a sword is not old.
As previously suggested by "The Open Stand," the Nets should pursue Batum and sign him. Batum can fully assist durant, Harden and Irving's big three, can shoot, can defend, and organize his ability to make Nash very satisfied.
Batum's contract expires this summer, and the Nets, which have local tycoon owners and big three, should be attractive to him.
