Russell Westbrook is going to sign the Los Angeles Clippers.
Probably, the Clippers are determined to be a spoiler.
Last year, it was said that the Celtics-the fifth in the East at that time-were the most dangerous team in the east.
The feeling of a strong team: smooth and natural, flowing with clouds, can’t beat!
Dangerous feeling: scary, can’t press, how can I jump up and beat you up?
Since 2020, Clippers and Celts have similar temperament:
Trump card wings; Relieve a garrison tough; A bunch of people have baskets and lack an organization soul, so the attack is unstable; The ground warfare often has no space, and it is quite tough to vote; However, the meat grinder was opened, it can still make people feel painful.
I always think the Celtics are the youth version of the Clippers. Unexpectedly, the Celtics advanced the finals in the last season.
But this season’s Clippers are still very dangerous.
The Clippers had no ball and conduction before this season, politely speaking, not so good; For two consecutive seasons, George was relied on as the King of the team. The attacking end, the rhythm is not fast, the attack basket is not fierce, and it depends on the singles and the peripheral luck.
However, coach Lu has great strength and the Clippers are tough and tough, especially relieve a garrison good players: a few days ago, he hit the sun, and the last uncontrolled guard team won hard.
Mann + Leonard + Covington/Batum + George, can be the most comprehensive finishing line of the league, with zubatz/plentley to carry a large array, or Morris to swing infinitely.
The whole league has its own other outstanding closing array, but there are few people who are so suitable for playing the playoff meat war as the Clippers. Therefore, the Clippers are now, although they are only the fourth regular season record in the West, and they often bump in the regular season. This lineup is playing in a hurry to be a spoiler.
However, the Clippers do not need organizers at all. After all, the competition lasts for 48 minutes, and it is impossible to put up relieve a garrison rounds of meat mincing every moment.
The Clippers recruited wall before, trying to be instigated by him, but the effect was not good. Now they, who were originally short of control guards, also sent away Regis and wall, and attracted hailander and weishao. The meaning is quite clear:
They have unlimited relieve a garrison and take turns to play singles. They don’t pay much attention to commanders when deciding whether to live or die, but usually they really need someone who can push the rhythm and make sudden points:
Wall didn’t do it. Try to do it.
The current situation of weishao is well known:
He has no basket, the attack efficiency with the ball is not good, the control error is not good, and the single defense is not good; The threat without the ball is especially bad.
After the knee surgery in 2019, he was always in this state.
However, in the 2020-21 season, he won the champion in the Wizard and played the last peak season-with an average of 22points, 12 rebounds, 12 assists and 38 three pairs. The Wizards also made the playoffs that year.
In the spring of 2021, how did wizards use Wei Shao?
Play relieve a garrison with the swing front line of Lane + eight villages + afdia; Let weishao push speed to fight back and fall into the battle, weishao is responsible for handing out cards to find empty and cut teammates, or hand them over to ace bill.
If the Clippers also use Wei Shao like this, they can probably also use:
Relieve a garrison, Clippers are very good at it.
Weishao deals cards to find teammates? The Clippers are not short of shooters, and: The best season of Paul George’s career, that is, the third year of his regular season MVP votes in 2018-19, came from Thunder and Wei Shao’s partners.
Weishao’s threat of carrying the ball is not mentioned, but the passing is still reliable.
It seems that he and the Clippers are not in conflict with each other.
As mentioned above, the strong teams are flowing, while the dangerous teams are very unpredictable:
Most of them are not smooth, but they are good at destroying the rhythm of the strong in noise chaos.
Wei Shao is such a person. When he is poor, he can take his own rhythm away, and when he is fierce, he can destroy the rhythm of the other party by suona horn.
Since Durant left Thunder, Wei Shao has only won one playoff series, that is, Rocket War Thunder in 2020: even in that series, he did not play well.
But the last series he won with Durant was the semi-final in the west of 2016, Thunder Spurs.
In that series, Durant averaged 29+7+4 and Wei Shao averaged 25+7+11. Durant is the source of Thunder’s stable score, but those who have experienced it naturally remember:
In that series, the Thunder made Spurs uncomfortable. It was Adams’s internal fighting and weishao’s rapid sprint.
When the rhythm was on the Spurs side, Aldrich and Leonard could still play Thunder steadily; But when weishao took the Thunder to speed, Spurs became dizzy.
As for the latter Western final, how did Thunder once run the meat grinder 3-1 ahead of the 73-winning Warriors? Everyone remembers that the three games won by Thunder in that series, Wei Shao was 27 points and 12 assists, 30 points, 12 assists and 36 points, three pairs.
Russell Westbrook is one of the few diesel chainsaws in NBA history. Smooth and steady has always been out of touch with him, but it is his specialty to rush and stir up in noise mistakes.
If the running is bad, it is the lack of space to cause complaints from neighbors. If the running is smooth, it will become a hit time. Everyone is high together.
Now he is in the infinite relieve a garrison meat grinder stir-up team of the Clippers, which is less than a quick point guard.
If you are afraid of affecting the first chemical reaction, it seems that it is OK to try to let him take more substitutes to speed up and run for 15 to 20 minutes each time?
(Although it is better to go to Mann for both starting and ending…)
Of course, this move is a bit of a gamble after all. After all, in the past three or four years, except for the Wizards, weishao was not fluent in any team-as mentioned above, his playing style was a spoiler, and fluency had no fate with him-so it also came out a few days ago, clippers are worried about whether weishao will destroy the chemical reaction in the dressing room.
But in the end, the Clippers still have to sign Wei Shao, which is probably understandable:
On the one hand, the previous paragraph Bradley bill said Wei Shao:
“He is an excellent teammate, and he is by no means like what many people describe in character; If you are his teammate, he tries his best for you, and he loves the team; If you make a mistake, he tends to criticize himself before he gets angry with you…… He knows where I like to receive the ball, and he will make it easier for you to play.”
Bill scored second in the league on average in the year when he was working with weishao.
In addition to him, Wei Shao also cooperated with Durant and Harden, the two winners. George played the highest 28-point season of his career when he cooperated with him; Leonard probably wouldn’t have any difficulty in cooperating with Wei.
Wei Shao probably knew that this was his last chance in NBA.
On the other hand, even if you know that signing Wei Shao may be a bit of a bet, the Clippers team is almost time to bet:
They went into and out this month and sent away Wall, kennader and Reggie. They got a wave of people: weishao and the new Gordon are 34 years old, and the new plentley is nearly 33 years old; think about the original people of the Clippers: Batum is 34 years old, George turned 33 in the playoffs this year, Covington is 32 years old, Leonard is 31 years old and it is the fourth season to the Clippers, playing 143 regular season matches.
Their core team is really old.
For Clippers and weishao, this is the final sprint mess:
“Finally crazy! — After all, we are almost old.
