Godfather of the NBA: Cutting Curry and creating a dynasty

The defending champion Lakers, in the first game of the new season, was beaten by an exaggerated score of 46 to 20 in a single quarter!

The fourth quarter of the game completely turned into garbage time, and both sides sent substitute players.

All the doubts about the Clippers before the game disappeared at this moment.

This whirlwind style of play has only been seen with the Suns before.

But the Suns also have Stoudemire, a serious insider.

The tallest of the Clippers' lineup is only the 2-meter wing player Paul George.

In a game where the head star didn't play, the Clippers beat the defending champion Lakers.

The strength displayed is simply terrifying!

At the end of the game, the Clippers finally won their first win of the season with 118:87.

The 31-point difference is also the Lakers' biggest loss in the past two years.

The Clippers once again proved with their strength that the Lakers are not an invincible team!

Perhaps it was the Clippers who started it, and the Lakers lost five of their next nine games.

4 wins and 6 losses are also the Lakers' worst start record in recent years.

Although the Clippers got off to a good start, they only won 9 of the next 5 games.

The record of 6 wins and 4 losses temporarily ranks third in the West.

Ranked first and second are the Spurs and Mavericks.

The rise of the Mavericks this season is definitely within Yang Li's expectations.

After all, in the original historical process, the Mavericks are the third in the Western Conference in this year's regular season, and they are also the winners of this year's championship.

And the Spurs can still rise, Yang Li really did not expect.

At the beginning of the season, the Spurs won three consecutive victories.

Manu has now arrived in the Clippers, and the Spurs' lineup has not changed much this season.

In the previous life, the Spurs relied on the outstanding performance of GDP to win the first place in the Western Conference this season.

Now that an important player is missing, how can the Spurs still play so well?

Until the Clippers met the Spurs in the fourth game of the season, Yang Li understood.

As expected of Popovich, he really has two brushes.

Last season, Duncan began to change his style of play due to a severe decline in explosive power.

In this process, Duncan performed very badly.

But after studying the Clippers' style of play last season, Popovich suddenly had an inspiration.

He asked Duncan to move near the free throw line to support, and at the same time, the offensive method replaced post-up singles at the basket with more mid-range shots.

In this way, Kaman in the penalty area was directly liberated, and Duncan could also take care of Jefferson on the flank.

With Duncan as the axis, Kaman and Jefferson, who had no active offensive ability, were completely activated.

The backcourt twins Tony Parker and George Hill have also evolved this season.

The play style of the two is very similar to the "Curden" combination of the Clippers last season, and the offensive efficiency is very efficient.

As a result, at the beginning of the season, the Spurs and Clippers also had a three-game winning streak, and the final winner was the Spurs.

After the game, Yang Li felt like crying.

Although I robbed Manu, it seems that I unintentionally released a beast.

This old man Bobo really deserves to be Zhuge Weiqi.

"Learning skills from barbarians to control barbarians", he played with great proficiency.

It seems that it is really not an easy task to break out of the siege in the west where the strong are everywhere.

If I had known, I would have bought an Eastern Conference team!

Yang Li's thought only appeared in his mind for a second, and then it was erased.

Looking for a shortcut to the finals?These are the thoughts of the weak!

However, the eastern team is really good!

The Clippers' 11th game was at home against the New Jersey Nets in the Eastern Conference.

In this campaign, the Clippers were all soldiers, and 8 scored in double figures, and finally beat the Nets with a score of 120:96.

Next, there will be three consecutive road trips.

In the 12th game as a guest in Minnesota to challenge the Timberwolves, the Clippers directly blasted the Timberwolves' backcourt players.

The Timberwolves started with Baron Davis at point guard and Eric Gordon at shooting guard.

Both were traded by the Clippers to the Timberwolves.

Originally, before the game, the two uttered bold words, vowing to let the Clippers who came to challenge return home.

But as a result, the Clippers slapped them in the face.

After hearing the "ruthless words" from the two, Yang Li directly focused on the outside line for today's attack.

The original plan, Yang Li was to let the Clippers focus on the inside.

Al Jefferson, who was originally not for sale in the Timberwolves, suffered a serious decline last season.

He was traded directly to the Jazz during the offseason in exchange for two future draft picks.

Now the Timberwolves' inside starter is the white combination of Milicic + Kevin Love.

How stupid this combination is, I can't explain it in a few words.

Let's express it directly in data. This season, the Timberwolves' inside defensive efficiency is at the bottom of the league.

The Clippers have the black and tough Ibaka and Jr. Jordan, as well as the comprehensive Brad Miller.

Yang Li has a hundred ways to sieve the Timberwolves' inside line.

But Davis and Gordon jumped out and became the first birds.

If I don't target you two, you really think I'm Yang Li called Yang Wei, right?

Baron Davis is only 31 years old this year, so he should still be at the tail end of his peak.

But his physical condition has declined very seriously, which has also caused him to be physically unfit for the original explosive style of play.

It is also because of his physical condition that his speed has slowed down a lot, making it difficult to keep up with defenders.

So this season he is not good at attacking and attacking, and his defense is stretched.

Eric Gordon, the "round-faced Deng" we became familiar with later.

He performed well this season and has the potential to become the core of the Timberwolves' outside line in the future.

However, his shortcoming of insufficient height is too fatal.

His personal defensive efficiency is as high as 113, which is basically the lowest level in the league.

In short, in this game, the two were directly blown away by the Clippers' back line.

The process of the game was too brutal, so I won't go into details, just talk about the result.

Eric Gordon made 11 of 3 shots and only scored 8 points and 3 rebounds.

Baron Davis made 8 of 1 shots and only scored 4 points. Although he picked up 5 rebounds, he only sent 3 assists.

On the Clippers side, James Harden made 15 of 9 shots from the field.

最终得到26分7个篮板，并送出了10次助攻，拿到了25+10+5的出色数据。

Manu Ginobili made 12 of 6 shots and scored 18 points and 4 rebounds.

Allen Iverson came off the bench, but still scored 10 points on Baron Davis.

After today's game, Davis and Gordon were completely honest, and never said such nonsense about blowing up the Clippers again.

The next day, the Clippers won against the Indiana Pacers despite back-to-back games.

In this game, Harden also scored a triple-double of 23 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

On November 11, the Clippers' road trip came to the third stop-the New York Knicks.

When Yang Li came to Madison Square Garden, enthusiastic New York fans expressed their love for Yang Li with cheers:

"Fake Yangli!"
