Everyone has seen the series between the Clippers and the Mavericks, and the Clippers are now in a passive state. In fact, the Clippers themselves know that after losing a home court, they have actually stepped on the line with one foot. We all know the results of G3, and the Clippers are behind in the overall score. So after the end of this game, what are the developments worth paying attention to? After the Clippers G3 loss, Leonard made a promise, George was dissatisfied with the penalty, and Tyronn Lue explained why.
To say that the two games after Leonard's comeback were really bad. There's no way around it, who let Leonard die and get injured at the end of the day. After Leonard played G3, he also talked about a lot of things and made a promise. Leonard said bluntly that he hadn't hit the response he wanted, but we'd get it right. Those who are familiar with Leonard know that Leonard generally does not say that. Now that Leonard says that, the next game is going to be ruthless.
So will G4 Leonard fight? As far as this matter is concerned, Leonard's side has also officially confirmed. Leonard was categorical and bluntly said that he wanted to play to help the team and that he wanted to play G4. As far as Leonard is concerned, he plays with an injury, which in itself is a drain on himself. However, Leonard has such an attitude, which shows that he really is not here to mess around. Leonard's big contract has arrived, and he could have avoided such a fight, but Leonard chose to insist.
In addition, Leonard's side also officially ordered that mistakes were the problem, and that the Mavericks' secondary scoring should be limited. Leonard wasn't wrong, the G3 Clippers made 19 turnovers and the Mavericks took 16 more shots than the Clippers. In addition, the Mavericks' second offensive score also reached 12 points. If the Clippers want to win G4, they will have to adjust from all aspects. Leonard needs to score 25+ points, and George Harden has to score at least 45 points together.
G3 George can be said to be pulled to the end, and there is nothing worthy of everyone's praise. George had 7 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds, which is not like a superstar's stats, but rather like the performance of a role player. What's more, there were 5 fouls on George's side, which directly affected the team's tempo. After the game, George also talked about a lot of things, the most important of which was to be dissatisfied with the referee's decision. George thinks that the other party can give himself a body, but it is a foul to change himself.
What we need to understand is that the referee's decision in the playoffs can sometimes affect the game, but for the players, it is still necessary to take it seriously and play their own basketball well. In addition, Tyronn Lue also explained one thing, that is, why Harden played more than 40 minutes. Tyronn Lue bluntly said that Harden played for so long and had something to do with George getting into a foul. There was no way around it, as George's foul affected the rotation and Harden's playing time.
