The Clippers seem to have many cards, but there is actually only one card that they can play, that is Paul.

After Paul made a comeback, he received the ball from the bottom corner on the right, facing Nash's tentative step, and made a slightly backward jump shot.

After suffering a major knee injury and a sharp decline in athletic ability, Paul changed his playing style.

He trained his mid-range jump shot to the master level, so just looking at the data, you will find that Paul has not changed, and he is still Paul, the second-place VP in the past.

Only by watching Paul's games in large numbers will you find that he has significantly fewer breakthroughs.

Especially the continuous change of backward and strong layups, the action of making a strong breakthrough in the middle has almost disappeared.

He uses the help of a mid-range jump shot after the screen, and a one-on-one jump shot.

After getting to the basket, the end was completed with more throws and emergency stop jump shots.

This allowed his knees to be protected to the greatest extent, and at the same time, the data and on-field effect did not decline significantly.

He is undoubtedly a very smart player who knows how to cover up his flaws.

Because of his height of 183, he was destined to suffer a loss on the basketball court. Height is the biggest and most irreparable shortcoming.

Paul tried his best to mobilize his teammates in the first quarter because he knew that the whole team must make efforts in the face of the Lakers.

Negro said before the game that the forward position must be opened and the Lakers must be put under pressure on both offense and defense.

Paul understood that he was going to put pressure on that No. 28.

His "fo,fo" comments before the game are annoying.

Before the game started, Paul told everyone that he must win the first game tonight, in order to shatter Li Liang's "fo,fo".

As a result, I played for a half-time period and found that it seemed that I really couldn't beat it!

Paul soon realized that he had to stand up on the offensive end and take more moves, otherwise the score difference would grow bigger and bigger.

Now Kobe and Nash are back on the court at the same time, which is a point increase for the Lakers.

Nash dribbled through the half, and cooperated continuously with Howard and Gasol on the left.

But on the weak side, Kobe has used his running position to get rid of defense, and Nash passed the ball horizontally to Kobe's 45-degree hands on the right.

Kobe took the ball and made a three-pointer from the outside and hit it!

Stamps is in a state of excitement, and this is still the Lakers' territory!

Although a small number of Clippers fans "sneaked" into Stamps, the yellow ocean in the stands was surging with Kobe's three-pointer.

After missing two goals in the opening game, Kobe made all the shots from behind.

This is very terrible. Kobe who finds the feeling when he shoots is very, very terrible.

Paul knew this terrible, so he immediately pushed the ball to counterattack, dribbled continuously in the middle of Jordan's cover, got rid of the defense and made a jump shot from the top of the arc!

Hit!

Paul counterattacked with the fastest speed and scored two points.

He had a premonition that the Clippers were in danger of being dragged into the Lakers' rhythm.

In positional battle, the Lakers scored consecutive goals, but the Clippers failed to fight in positional battle, and were beaten to counterattack by the Lakers.

Then the score difference will grow bigger and bigger. This is how they lost the three regular season games.

The Clippers need defense, and Paul loudly directed his teammates' running position.

They need to defend successfully once, and the score difference is already moving towards more than 10 points.

At this time, Kobe scored the ball to Nash, and Nash missed a horse-riding archery while he was in trouble.

But inside Gasol got the frontcourt rebound and made a light tip-in!

Paul is helpless. I can't grab the backcourt rebounds, right?

Griffin and Jordan Jr. were not focused enough, and gave Gasol a chance.

Paul was a little anxious.

He took the ball at a high position and began to continuously use change directions to get rid of defense.

In the second quarter, the Lakers began to use Kobe to defend Paul.

Paul entered the middle, and Barnes on the wing had a chance and passed the ball to Barnes.

But Ci Shiping suddenly broke out and broke the ball!

Seeing that Ci Shiping was about to attack slowly again, Barnes grabbed Ci Shiping from behind and suffered a foul.

Both sides entered the official timeout. On the bench, Mike Brown patted Li Liang and signaled him to prepare to play.

When Li Liang saw it, he had only had three minutes of rest and said, "I haven't had enough rest yet!"

"This is the playoffs, and the game is over and there is time to rest."

Brown is also amazing. In fact, it is OK to use Jamison, but he doesn't.

There was no choice but to go on stage.

Look at the score, 45:35, just 10 points ahead.

Li Liang expressed his satisfaction with this result and did not scold Kobe.

After the timeout, Ci Shiping made one of two free throws, 46:35, and the Lakers led by 11 points.

The situation is not good for the Clippers.

Then, Paul made a mistake in the offense, dribbled the ball to his feet, and the ball went out of the sideline.

It's still the Lakers' ball.

It's really a mess. Once the situation is wrong, an excellent point guard like Paul will make low-level mistakes.

The Clippers' luck is really bad.

The Lakers' offense, the Clippers defended well this time and did not give the Lakers too good a chance.

In the end, Kobe missed a strong shot from the outside, and he looked like Kobe.

But inside, Griffin and Jordan Jr. did not protect the backcourt rebounds.

Howard drew the ball, Nash got the ball from the outside and made a three-pointer, but he didn't hit it.

The ball bounced around in the hands of several people, but in the end Crawford didn't hold it and flew out of the bottom line.

Still the Lakers' ball rights.

What a pill, the Clippers really have to carry it.

The more you are still behind.

The Clippers' defense just now was actually very good, and they were very good at making up for defense and single defense, which forced Kobe to force his move.

As a result, a big loophole was immediately released, and Li Liang cut the basket, and received Kobe's pass and made a layup.

Paul's face turned green with anger. How did he defend himself?

Jordan, have you had your eyes long and butt?

He just had to have his butt really grow his eyes, and he could see Li Liang slip into the inside and come to help with defense.

His attention is all his attention on Howard, but Howard is standing in the horn position, why do you care about him?

48:35.

Then, Griffin singled Li Liang and failed to make a mid-range jump shot.

Jordan Jr. grabbed the rebound at the basket and was also fouled by the referee.

It collapsed, the mentality of the Clippers has collapsed.

One connection section was not played well, and in the second quarter, he was attacked by the Lakers' positions.

Then he made consecutive mistakes, lost rebounds, fouls, and missed people at the basket, and his mentality was suddenly defeated.

At this time, Kobe will certainly take the blame.

He used the ball to break through the basket, and made a layup with his left hand.

Jordan has committed three fouls and dare not take action easily.

Then, Griffin missed the mid-range shot, but fortunately Jordan Jr. grabbed the frontcourt rebound.

Then the throwing shot was blown out of the three-point line by Howard with a big hat...

Paul got the ball and had to reorganize the attack.

It seems that no one can rely on it, so Paul can only do it himself.

Facing Kobe, Paul dribbled back two steps, and then forced a breakthrough with the ball!

He held the ball and rushed to the basket. Under Kobe and Howard, he found a gap, and then made a two-pointer with a throw-in with his right hand, causing Kobe to foul.

There will be additional penalties.

Paul's goal received a cheer from Stamps.
