On March 18, the Clippers narrowly defeated the Warriors away, and Ji Guochou got his ninth triple-double data this season. Whether Panda brother can get 10 triple-doubles has become the focus of fans' attention.

On March 19, the Clippers lost back-to-back to the Washington Wizards at home. In this game, the Clippers were limited by physical strength and the team felt poor. The twin brothers only scored 25 points together, and the others failed to stand up. The Clippers lost the 12th game of the season.

On March 21, the Clippers began their consecutive away trips to the East. In the first game, facing the declining Motor City, the Clippers won a refreshing away victory, defeating the Detroit Pistons 32 points in 134:102, indirectly assisting the New York Knicks to secure the eighth position in the East.

On March 23, the Clippers moved to Toronto to play against the Raptors. As a result, at the Air Canada Center Stadium, where twins were portrayed in the game, the two brothers scored 58 points and 31 rebounds, leading the Clippers to beat the Toronto Raptors away.

On March 24, the Clippers continued their away trip to the East, but this time their opponent was the Boston Celtics. They met the Big Three waiting to be worked on away games. The Clippers once again lost in the away game. They lost in the fourth quarter stalemate. Ji Guomomiya's final final kill was also not hit, and the Clippers lost the thirteenth game of the season.

After losing this game, Clippers fans felt very sorry. 13 losses meant that they could not win 70+ games. But there was no way. This is how modern basketball is. It is basically impossible to have a dominant team like the Bulls Dynasty. If you want to win 70 again, the difficulty is no worse than getting 81 points. However, if the Clippers have a chance in the future, they have twin brothers, so they have the possibility of winning 70. At least, 60 wins this season cannot be escaped, which is an honor that the Clippers have never achieved before.

"It doesn't matter, we haven't achieved 70 wins, but we can try to win a few games. Since 2000, only two teams have a regular season record of more than 65 wins. They are last year's Celtics and the Millennium Lakers. We have the opportunity to be the third team to achieve 65+ wins in a single season this season, and we have the opportunity to be the team with the best record in the 21st century." After losing the game against the Celtics, Dunleavy, the old team immediately boosted the morale of the team in the locker room after the game. Of course, they will not be frustrated by a back-to-back defeat away. They still have many tasks that have not been completed, such as the real goal of 65+ wins.

Ji Guomeng was the first to jump out to support his coach, and this guy saw that he had done his homework at first sight. He directly pointed out the goal that the team should strive for - "As long as we win 67, we can become the top ten teams in the history of the NBA. If we can win another 1, we can be ranked in the top five." The Virgo attribute of the Little Fox was once again attacked and shouted excitedly: "Guys, think about it, as long as we continue to maintain the winning rate of this season, it will not be difficult to achieve 60+ wins, then we can become the five best teams in history!"

Not to mention the Clippers players, they are really itchy by the big cakes drawn by the old Dunleavy and the little fox. How can athletes not desire honor? Even those bad guys who are greedy for money like to win rather than lose. Being a member of the Honor Book in the Long River of History is of course a goal worthy of bloody struggle!

On March 26, the Clippers will play against the New York Knicks after n major deals this time. These stupid guys with a lot of money have been very comfortable recently. They are steadily ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference, leading the Pistons, two and a half wins, and one win behind the seventh Bulls. It seems that they still have a chance to go further in the late regular season. After all, the Knicks' next schedule is not difficult. With their competitive state after the All-Star game, they can win at least half of the games. Today's match against the Los Angeles Clippers is the most difficult game for the Knicks. Even if the Clippers have lost four games in March, they are still the first in the league, leading the Cavaliers three wins.

The Clippers' position in the league is not very stable now. The Cavaliers are not worse than the Clippers this season. Speaking of which, without the unnecessary frontal competition in the Christmas game, the gap between the two teams is even smaller now. In addition to the Cavaliers, the Spurs have also maintained a three or four game gap with the Clippers. If the Clippers are not careful, they will fall to third or even further backwards in a blink of an eye.

New York media has been reporting a lot during this period that the Knicks now have double guns in the backcourt, and the attack power of the Champions League...

Although this title of "double gun" is a bit of a bragging suspect, and both Iverson and McGrady have left their peak, on some nights, these two can indeed contribute an amazing move of more than 60 points.

After countless trades this season, the team lineup naturally cannot be chosen according to the coach's wishes, so James Dolan did not have any record requirements for the Beard. They have planned to rebuild the team in a few years. In particular, Beard promised the new boss that he would definitely seduce at least one of Nash and Stoudemire, which gave D'Antoni a great power in the Knicks and could have a certain say in the transaction.

That's right, D'Antoni came here with the title of best coach. At this time, he was one of the most famous periods. Most fans believed that if he hadn't had bad luck in 2006, he might have won the championship.

At the pre-match press conference, Ji Guomeng rarely fired at the enemy because the Knicks' two cancers are his idols. Besides, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with being unique, which NBA star is not unique?

"None of us expected that the Knicks would have such a good record in the second half of the season. We would not underestimate each other. This is their home court. Moreover, their two core members, one once performed a miracle of 35.13 seconds, and the other one made it into the finals alone, which deserves our respect. Except for the low shooting percentage, I don't think they have any weaknesses." After Ji Guomeng said that, he wanted to give himself a mouth, and he wouldn't have a black look?

The New York reporters were very happy to hear it. It was a rare thing to be able to say these words from the mouth of this dead fox. This guy is famous for being a poisonous snake. Heiki Kobe and James are not ruthless, so he is definitely flattered by him to praise him. The New York reporters feel satisfied!

But this guy couldn't change his shit, and he went as he spoke. The New York reporters suddenly felt like they were being played with. Isn't the dead fox playing with monkeys?

Before the game, Dunleavy, the old man had already guessed the Knicks' starting lineup. This is so easy to guess. D'Antoni had completely established his eight-man rotation lineup after the All-Star Game. If it weren't for their two backcourt cores being older and having potential injuries, it would probably be the eight-man rotation, but the seven-man rotation that D'Antoni is best at.

The beard likes to use all-rounders. If players who cannot play two positions are difficult to get opportunities from him. Of course, they must be able to run. It doesn’t matter if they don’t defend well, but they will never be forgiven if they don’t attack well. After the Knicks traded, the inside became an obvious weakness. The starting inside combination is Al Harrington and Ronnie Turiaf. Poor Tim Thomas was traded by the Knicks to the Warriors after being traded by the Clippers. Another former Clippers player, Mobley, was diagnosed with heart attack by the Knicks at the beginning of the season and retired.

The Knicks' starting lineup: Allen Iverson, Tracy McGrady, Wilson Chandler, Al Harrington, Ronnie Turiaff.

The enemy's inside line is weak, and the Clippers' tactics are of course mainly on the inside line, which is exactly what they are good at. Old Dunleavy is not worried that the Knicks' fast attack will sink the Clippers. They are not that fast. McGrady and Iverson give people a fast feeling because they have a good sense of rhythm. In terms of pure speed, the Knicks are not fast. But this rhythm is actually more troublesome. The two of them have lost some of their athletic abilities, but the superstar feels that they can get the basketball into the basket in every move.

The Clippers won the ball and made their first attack. Ji Guoqiu easily scored two points from Turiav in the inside.

The Knicks attacked, and Iverson quickly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Billups, he tried to break through first. After finding that there was no chance, the answer quickly handed the basketball to McGrady.

This is the Knicks' habitual style of playing. Iverson quickly transports it to the frontcourt first. If you have the chance, you can break through and launch an attack. If you don't have the chance, you will hand over the basketball to McGrady. Softmai will be the real core of the Knicks' organization. At this time, Iverson will use the positioning cover of his teammates to start running. Once he runs out of the open position or is misplaced one-on-one opportunity, he can easily pass the basketball with McGrady's top passing vision and let Iverson play singles.

The Knicks created a misalignment opportunity this time. Iverson misaligned against Avraro, and McGrady's pass came to Iverson's hand just right. The answer was two cross steps and it was empty, and directly scored a mid-range shot to help the team get two points.

D'Antoni came to New York, but it was not impossible to adapt. The Knicks' offensive end mainly created opportunities for misplaced singles for the two backcourt stars. They would play fast attacks when they had the opportunity, but they would try not to fall into positional battles as much as possible, because their inside line basically has no ability to attack and must play fast offensive and defensive transformations, and launch an attack while the opponent is not yet stable, and strive to end the battle before the opponent's formation is arranged.

It is certain to play like this, but McGrady's excellent organizational skills and two former superstars still have the top singles ability. Once the Knicks hit the rhythm, ordinary teams will be unable to resist. If these two people get together for three or five years, Knicks fans will drool when they think about it.

The Knicks' next attack showed their second plan. Iverson broke through with the ball and attracted two Clippers players to double-team, quickly passing the basketball to McGrady on the weak side from the crack.

McGrady misplaced and fought against Ji Guomeng alone, but unfortunately the latter came from the strong side to make up for defense. McGrady made a fussy shot and faked Ji Guomeng, then took the ball and broke through to the middle distance. A relaxed jump shot scored two points again.

"Damn it, I feel like they are taking turns to play singles, attracting defense and then breaking through and passing the ball without a chance, and the other person continues to play singles." Just halfway through the first quarter, Ji Guomomo discovered the Knicks' routine.

"Yes, it's very simple and direct, but it's the simplest and most effective. I think they play well like this. The winner depends on the performance of the two stars." Ji Guoqiu didn't care too much. They also scored a lot of points in the inside today. It's not easy for the Knicks to defeat them on the outside. Everyone knows that the closer they get to the basket, the higher the shooting rate.

Half past the first quarter, the score was 14:14.

Old Dunleavy called a timeout and ordered the defensive arrangement: "First, protect the rebounds. Second, force them to take action far away from the basket, and they would rather shoot than break through. Third, we must stick to the inside line, play success rate, and do not need to follow their rhythm. They like to play quickly, so that they can get better soon. We play steadily on the offensive end and destroy their offensive rhythm. Their shooting percentage will not keep up with us sooner or later. That is the time for us to solve them. What we have to do now is to stabilize the defense and wait patiently for opportunities."

The Clippers players took the orders one after another. After all, Old Dunleavy played in the finals, but now he looks like a famous coach. He not only hone players in the playoffs, but also hone coaches.

The game started again, and the Clippers replaced: Billups, Crawford, Barnes, Ji Guohuo, and Ji Guoqie.

The Knicks replaced: Nate Robinson, Iverson, McGrady, Landry, Harrington.

D'Antoni's crazy spirit has been countered again. This lineup of Knicks has been used more than once after the All-Star game. Harrington's third position was moved to the fifth position to play center. The backcourt combination of Little Potato and Iverson less than 180cm made Knicks fans feel that the height of their team is really a problem. The average height of this lineup is only 193cm, which is about the same height as Barkley.

However, although they are small, the Knicks' short lineup of 193cm is faster than before. Nate Robinson means a little bit of a poor version of Iverson. After these two little guys played, they scored two points, and they were both guarded by the two brothers, which made Ji Guomo unable to bear the face.

Ji Guomo was angry, but these two small men, especially Iverson's emergency stop shooting and weird layups in the breakthrough, are really elusive. If a small player like Iverson wants to survive in the league, he must master the accurate shooting rhythm. He can find a critical shot opportunity in front of the big man. The difficulty is much greater than that of a normal player's shooting. The small men must be more accurate in mastering the timing to avoid being blocked.
