The NBA regular season continues, and the Western Conference pattern gradually becomes clear as the schedule deepens, with the top 4 teams arguably in Pot 1, while the 5 and 10 teams are competing for a playoff spot, and it is becoming more difficult for the Jazz and Rockets to challenge for the playoff spots. It's just that at present, when the Clippers are getting better, the team has ushered in new problems. Goodbye Clippers, goodbye Big Three Coach Lu talks about injuries, and the lad has a chance.
At present, the Clippers have a record of 38 wins and 20 losses and are fourth in the Western Conference standings, three wins behind the top Timberwolves. The most critical thing is that the team has a new injury dilemma. During the team's previous losing streak, George, one of the team's leading stars, was absent due to injury. Although the last game ushered in a comeback, it can be clearly seen that George is not fully recovered, still suffering from injuries, as the core of the substitute lineup, Wei Shao, but suffered a fracture in the game.
He crashed into Poole during the game and exited the game with a broken finger, and before that was the only full-time player for the Clippers this season, he was also an important part of the team. In order for the Clippers to go further this season, Wei Shao took the initiative to give up the starting lineup and go to the rotation lineup, which prompted the Clippers to get on the right track more quickly and perform at the top of the alluvial standings. He is averaging 111 point 52 rebounds and 45 assists are the core of the Clippers' rotation lineup, and they are the key factors for the team's morale and tightness on the court.
Tyronn Lue talked about Wei Shao's injury situation in an interview, he said that I don't know anything further at the moment, whether surgery will be needed and when he will be able to return is uncertain, which is undoubtedly a new challenge for the Clippers. After all, the Clippers had the strength to go further in the past few seasons, but they were always plagued by injuries, and now they have been injured at a critical stage of the schedule, and the team is once again trapped by injuries, but fortunately, George is now back and can gradually recover and improve his form.
For Wei Shao, it means saying goodbye to the team and the Big Three for a short time, there is no way to help Kajiaoha, what he needs to do is to heal his injury as soon as possible and strive to help the team in the playoffs. After all, Wei Shao once had a broken finger, but he made a quick comeback in less than a month. So what he needs at this stage is to recuperate from his injury and try to help the team in the playoffs. So for the rotation lineup, the team is more likely to rely on Hyland's play, just like in the last game after Wei Shao left, the team gave Hyland a chance.
Tyronn Lue also said in the interview that Hyland will get a chance, he will get a chance to play, and take on the role of a substitute in the spot. As a young defender, Hyland is averaging just 13. per game this seasonHe had six points and two assists in four minutes of playing time, but his shooting percentage was pretty poor, shooting 3543% points and a low shooting percentage of 294%。Played 16 in the last gameIn 4 minutes, he only had two points and seven assists, and his shooting performance was slightly worse on 1-of-7 shooting. Then Hyland needs to see if he can seize such an opportunity and take on it during Wei Shao's absence. The core of the team's rotation lineup.
As the schedule deepens, unconsciously, I hope that the Clippers can make a breakthrough this season, what do you think the Clippers can achieve in the end this season? A new season of sports
