On a day of passion and sweat, the NBA's court played out a dramatic drama. There is such a long list of topics, it sounds like a basketball version of a soap opera, "Reversed by the Kings, Harden complains about the referees, Leonard is frustrated, and the losing sinner should not have a temper tantrum". This is not only the story of a game, it is simply an explosion of emotions, which reminds people of the classic saying, "The stadium is like a battlefield, and the game is like life".
The protagonists of the story have distinct personalities, and the storyline has ups and downs. First up is the Clippers, who take on the Kings at home. It's not just an ordinary game, it's a revenge battle for the Clippers. However, the road to revenge has not been smooth, especially when Paul George is out due to injury, Harden has a cold hand, and Leonard has been incoherent in scoring.
In the second quarter of the game, the Kings' Sabonis seemed to have turned on a triple-double mode, making the Clippers look stretched on offense. At the end of the first half, the Kings led by seven points, which made the Clippers' road to revenge even more distant.
Heading into the third quarter, Harden tried to lead the Clippers on a counterattack, but the Kings still held the lead. In the crucial fourth quarter, the Clippers' offense was almost entirely supported by Powell, and the result was predictable, and in the end they had to accept defeat.
Looking back at this game, many fans and ** began to look for the "sinner who lost". Harden's performance was mediocre, but his final win-26 win seemed to put him on the cusp. He complained to the referee several times during the game, hoping to get a whistle and a penalty, but often went unanswered, which made him even more frustrated.
Leonard's mood didn't improve, and although his stats looked pretty good, there were too many mistakes and his expression was full of frustration. But the real "sinner" may be Wei Shao, who is even more sluggish. He came off the bench, his shooting percentage was sluggish, and after a series of irons, he was still obsessed with individual offense, which not only affected the team's tempo, but also made the team's atmosphere tense.
More critically, Wei Shao's emotional management problem. The angry shouting at teammates not only did not play the role of encouragement, but became a factor of instability for the team. In such a situation, his actions not only did not help the team, but made the team's situation more difficult.
This game is not only a contest at the technical level, but also a test of mentality and emotional management. Losing is frustrating, but it's more important to face defeat and adjust your mindset to face the next challenges in a better state. 2 times the points invite you to post in the New Year
