Pause back, and the game continues.
In the absence of Paul, the Clippers' half-court offense started with Blood Cloth and Griffin.The vision of the blood-clothed sudden point is not good, and he is more suitable for the kind of substitute who does not care about disrupting the game. Once he enters the starting lineup, he thinks too much, and it is easy to lose the passing opportunity, and he is tied up in an instant.Originally he was called "chicken blood cloth" because he played with passion and passion, but he became the starter to replace Paul. He played as if he had lost too much blood.
Griffin is under a lot of pressure. Usually, with Paul, he only needs to be in a high position or near the free throw line to handle the ball twice. In this game, Paul is not there, and the opponent's defensive focus is on him. The pressure is sudden. Increase, as soon as the difficulty and sense of urgency in handling the ball increase, you will be sweating profusely in a short while.
Paul is an offensive "engine" in the Clippers. In this game, facing the powerful Raptors, the league's No. [-] Raptors, the Clippers without an engine are like a rickshaw. How do you expect to gallop.
No matter who Ying Xiong is playing against the Clippers, he has no difficulty, as long as he wants to play.No wing player in the Clippers can restrain him, Caron Butler can't, Baye can't, and the 40-year-old veteran Grant Hill is naturally not enough.
The Raptors took the lead from the beginning until the end of the game, and they were not overtaken by the opponent, winning from beginning to end.In this game, Coach Casey adjusted the rotation. He first played DeRozan and replaced Rudy Gay in the middle of the first quarter, with Ying Xiong and Jeremy Lin.He does not intend to deprive DeRozan of starting, but to flexibly arrange playing time according to the characteristics of the opposing team and the on-the-spot status of the two.DeRozan was trained by the team and has officially renewed his contract with the team. As long as he is not in poor condition, it is impossible to refrigerate him easily.
With Gay, Casey has more possibilities when arranging the lineup, and the team's chances of making mistakes are much greater.Jeremy Lin and Lowry, DeRozan and Gay, the team can arrange the best lineup for the game according to each person's state of the day.
In this game, as Gay's Raptors debut, he played very actively, whether it was offense or defense.He used actions to show the team and fans that there is no problem with his match with Ying Xiong.
In fact, Ying Xiong can match any player and any system because he has no obvious weaknesses.This is different from James needing court space to partner with a shooter, Kobe needing inside to protect rebounds, and Durant needing a good guard to pass him.
After the Raptors won this game, the Raptors ushered in a 5-game winning streak and continued to rank first in the league with a record of 38 wins and 9 losses.
On February 2, the Raptors continued to sit at home to face the defending champion Miami Heat.In the 4 games last month, their only strength was an away game against the Heat in overtime. In this game at home, they naturally hope to beat each other and avenge themselves.
In this game, the Big Three of the Heat still played very steadily, scoring 71 points together.On the Raptors side, the newly joined Rudy Gay performed well, scoring 26 points, and DeRozan also scored 20 points.Ying Xiong scored 39 points, helping the team narrowly beat the opponent at home and ushered in a 6-game winning streak.
On February 2, the Raptors played against the Celtics at home. With Ying Xiong's 7 points, they narrowly beat their opponents at home and ushered in a 41-game winning streak.
On February 2, when the Raptors visited Indiana to challenge the Pacers, Ying Xiong made a mid-range overtake in the last 9 seconds, leading the team to a narrow victory over the opponent and ushering in an 20-game winning streak.Their record also came to 8 wins and 41 losses.
In these three games, the Raptors defeated arguably the three strongest competitors in the East, which has a high gold content.Of course, no matter how high the gold content is, this is still just the regular season, so it can't explain too much.On this point, Ying Xiong and Coach Casey are very clear.
On February 2, the Raptors played against the New Orleans Hornets at home.The Hornets ranked last in the West in the regular season last season, and have lost 11 games so far this season. It is simply an extravagant hope to enter the playoffs.The poor record is not all bad. In the draft before this season, they won the No. 33 pick as they wished, and selected the University of Kentucky's potential insider "Big Eyebrow Brother"-Anthony Davis.
Anthony Davis is not yet 20 years old and has not fully fulfilled his talent so far this season, but his potential and physical talent can be seen with the naked eye. Over time, he will definitely become a very good player.
In this game, the starting lineup of the Raptors at home is: center - Valanciunas, power forward - Amir Johnson, small forward - DeRozan, shooting guard - Ying Xiong, point guard - — Jeremy Lin.
Valanciunas returned to the starting lineup after playing a few games off the bench, partnered with Amir Johnson, and Along Gray returned to the bench.
The starting lineup of the Hornets in the away game is: center-Robin Lopez, power forward-Anthony Davis, small forward-Alfarouk Aminu, shooting guard-Eric Gordon, organization Defender -- Greivis Vasquez.
Valanciunas and Robin Lopez prepare for a jump ball near the center circle.Robin Lopez is the twin brother of Nets center Brook Lopez. The two have different styles, one is defensive and the other is offensive.
Valanciunas returned to the starting lineup and was very active. He won the opponent at the jump ball stage, and Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball through the half court.
The tall and long-armed Aminu is responsible for defending Yingxiong. As the 2010th pick in the first round of the 8 lottery pick, he is considered an unplayable one.Of course, if you measure him by the standard of a role player, it can't be considered that he has not played at all.
Jeremy Lin made a breakthrough to Ying Xiong, and Ying Xiong quickly cut in from the right wing with the help of Amir Johnson's off-ball screen.The thick-browed brother Anthony Davis, as an insider, moves very fast, is tall and has long arms, has a large defensive coverage area, and has a good defensive talent.
Brother Nongmei came to defend Yingxiong, aggressively, with the aura of "a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers".
When Ying Xiong saw his eyebrows, he immediately felt quite happy, but he didn't laugh because of it, because he is still in the game now!
Brother Nongmei has first-class physical fitness and extraordinary talent. After all, he is still a little tender and lacks defensive experience. Ying Xiong slowed down and then accelerated with a feint.
Under the pull of Brother Nongmei, Ying Xiong still did not deform his movements, and threw the ball into the basket with his right hand steadily!
2+1!The arena is already boiling!
