The referee's report is out
Yesterday, the Clippers welcomed the last opponent of the seven-game road streak in the East, the Hawks, who are in a four-game winning streak and have successively knocked out the Lakers, Suns, and Warriors. In the end, after four quarters of ups and downs, the Clippers defeated the Hawks 149-144 and ended the Crusade with a proud record of 6-1. Today, the NBA officially released the referee report for the last two minutes of the game, and the results showed that there was a total of 1 misjudgment, which was not good for the Clippers.
With 1:28 left in the game, Hawks guard Murray made a three-point shot that caused a foul on Clippers forward Coffey. The referee's report states that Coffey did not infringe on Murray's cylinder and is clearly a high five, i.e. the ball has been shot and a high-five in the air does not constitute a foul.
It is not difficult to see from the referee's report that the Clippers suffered some losses in blowing penalties. In fact, this misjudgment is just a microcosm of the referee's bias towards the Hawks throughout the game, once the Clippers play momentum and open the score, the referee will always intervene in time to forcibly create suspense in the game. It's not disrespectful to the Hawks, but it's not easy for the Clippers to win the game in an unfavorable situation, and it also shows that the current Clippers are really strong.
3-for-1 deal**
Today, according to the well-known American ** "Fox Sports", as the trade deadline is approaching (February 9), the idea of the Clippers trading PJ Tucker has become stronger, sources revealed that the Clippers are discussing a 3-for-1 deal with the Hornets, specifically for the Clippers to get Tucker, Plumlee and the 30-year first-round pick to get the Hornets' PJ Washington. The 25-year-old Washington is 201M, weighs 104kg, plays as a power forward on the court, he is a 12-pick pick in 19, played 5 seasons in the NBA, played a total of 303 games, and averaged 30 games per game1 minute to get 13 points 55 rebounds and 23 assists 09 steals and 1 block, shooting 451%, 36% three-point shooting, and was selected to the All-Rookie Second Team.
For the Clippers, Washington is the type of team that needs to be added. On the offensive end, Washington can block and dismantle and eat cakes, open up space and shoot from the outside, and has a single hand, which can enrich the offensive tactics of the Clippers; Defensively, Washington was a bit weak on the defensive end, but with excellent physicality and reach (2.).20m), who can provide good help defense and rim protection, and he has the ability to play the role of center in the Clippers' five-small lineup.
For the Hornets, Tucker is an experienced veteran who can help the youngsters develop better and play a good role as a leader in the team's locker room; Plumlee is a blue-collar interior player of a certain calibre, and he has played 2 seasons with the Hornets, so he should be able to settle in quickly; A first-round pick is not bad for personal use or for trading, and it is also an asset that the Hornets are looking at in the rebuilding stage. Obviously, the deal is for each to get what he wants, but there is also the problem that Plumlee has the right to veto the deal, and if he exercises it, the whole deal will be directly null and void.
