Chapter 127 Portland, the City of Tear
The Rose Garden Stadium in Portland, the city of tearing, this is the second time the Clippers have visited an arena this season. When they arrived here last time, the slightly immature Clippers were beaten here for 20 points. , Nicolas Batum's defense annoyed Anson a bit, and while his defense was equally effective, LaMarcus Aldridge pinned down Blake Griffin while they traded off each other, and Eric G Gordon also had several [-]s in the face by Wesley Matthews.
In the home game, the Clippers were due to an injury to Eric Gordon and a rest. The Clippers gave them 33 of their 3 losses this season.The Clippers who came to the Rose Garden Stadium again this time have a very simple purpose, which is revenge. The Clippers have grown a lot this season, and they believe that they will have this completely different new look in a few months.
"Nicholas, your task in this game is not to get many points or assists. First of all, you have to defend An. If you defend An, even if you don't score a single point, it is a success." Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan said to Nicolas Batum seriously and seriously that every team now uses Anson as the Clippers' arrow to defend.
A smile appeared on the corner of Nicholas Batum's mouth: "Boss! Don't worry, he is just a rookie. I will let him experience the difficulty of the playoffs in advance."
"Ann's dribble was broken, and Nicholas's steal. Both of their arms were at an inhuman level, but this time, Nicholas' experience gained a certain advantage. He judged the direction of the next move. The king of steals Instead, it was intercepted." The Blazers' on-site commentary was full of excitement, and it was only the first minute of the start. First, Wesley Matthews made a three-pointer against Eric Gordon, and then Coupled with Nicolas Batum's steals and a 1:5 start, the Blazers are in very good condition and are expected to directly sweep the Clippers this season.
An Sheng seemed a little annoyed by the ball, and his brows were tightly frowned. He felt that the defense on the opposite side violated his cylinder a bit.But the referee ignored it.For such a critical game, it is difficult for the referee to call a foul on the core defensive player of the home team at the beginning of the game, unless he is ready to meet the tens of thousands of tearing city The boos of the fans.
It's just that it's back to the Blazers' offensive end. LaMarcus Aldridge singled out Blake Griffin, and after taking two steps, he turned over and made a fadeaway jumper.
Yes, Blake Griffin has a bounce, but that's also a touch high after the jump, and his short hands became very obvious in front of LaMarcus Aldridge, and there was absolutely no way for him to prevent this shot .
7:0, this score made Del Negro a bit unsteady. Fortunately, Anson gave Jordan a beautiful alley-oop at the other end of the game to save the situation.
But the Blazers are not anxious at all. It is within their normal acceptable range to be used as a tactic by the Clippers occasionally. Their focus is to limit the Clippers' three-core scoring ability.
They still cleared one side and gave LaMarcus Aldridge, singles Blake Griffin, of course he can't let LaMarcus Aldridge hammer at him all the time, he was the No. 09 pick in [-] ah.
The defense is very close, and he uses the strength of his lower body to prevent the opponent from further suppressing his scoring space. The strength given is sufficient, and LaMarcus Aldridge cannot easily complete his actions, otherwise it will be for the For him, this is an extremely easy way to score.
"Beep beep", the whistle blew, and the referee on the sideline whistled for Blake Griffin's blocking foul. Blake Griffin instantly looked innocent. How could he be a blocking foul? When Nicolas Batum defended Anson's ball, the action of violating the cylinder was obviously bigger.
"What's the situation? Can anyone tell me what kind of penalty this is?" Del Negro expressed helplessness and spread his hands, expressing that he could not accept this penalty at all.
But none of this can change the referee's penalty. LaMarcus Aldridge made two free throws and the score has been stretched to 9:2.
"Give me the ball." Blake Griffin's expression said it all. After a pick-and-roll run, a one-on-one chance for Blake Griffin was formed in the elbow area. At that time, Blake Griffin did not completely get rid of LaMarcus Aldridge's defense before, and in this case, his shot was extremely disturbed.
Blake Griffin's very useful breakthrough against power forwards who are not moving fast enough in normal times is completely useless, because the opponent's power forwards are not slow at all, and the loss on the offensive end makes Blake Griffin's enthusiasm on the defensive end has also been affected. This is a rookie, and many factors on the field will affect their performance.
Successive iron strikes and defensive misplacements made Blake Griffin feel that he was ravaged, yes, it was ravaged, facing LaMarcus Aldridge, he had no ability to resist at all.
Even in the 5th minute, Blake Griffin received his second foul of the field again because of a blocking foul and was forced to rest.
"Hey, did you see clearly? You should need a pair of glasses now and then come to coach." An angry Del Negro immediately yelled at the baseline referee who whistled this penalty.
However, this complaint was heard by the head referee with good ears. The referee under the zero-tolerance system will naturally not let go of this young coach who dares to challenge himself, let alone a rookie coach with less than five years of coaching experience. , Even top coaches like Guerrero Popovich and Phil Jackson would be kicked out of the court directly under such insulting circumstances, and Del Negro is no exception.
This time, the Clippers suddenly became internally and externally trapped. The score was 7:18 behind by 11 points. Contradicting the referee was directly sent off the court. Many Clippers fans have turned off the TV in front of them in disappointment. They even feel that the team has no hope of winning. They even want to compete with the Memphis Grizzlies for the first place. Eight seats.
