The NBA regular season continues, and the Clippers vs. Wizards game officially begins. The Clippers are ranked fourth in the West, and the Wizards are ranked second to last in the East, and the gap between the two teams is still very large. In this game, the Wizards only blocked the impact of the Clippers in the first quarter, and since entering the second quarter, the Clippers have grasped the initiative on the court, and the Wizards can be fully suppressed at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. At the end of two quarters, the Clippers had a 15-point lead. Even into the second half, the Clippers still had a firm grip on the court. In the end, after four quarters of the game, the Clippers defeated the Wizards 140-115. 
Let's be honest, although the Wizards lost the game, Kuzma and Pope still performed remarkably. Kuzma played 29 minutes and finished with 32 points and seven rebounds on 13-of-19 shooting, including 5-of-7 three-pointers and 1-of-1 free throws. Kuzma is the Wizards' most consistent offensive player and the Clippers' unstoppable player. Pope played 21 minutes, shooting 7-of-15 from the field and 1-of-1 from the free-throw line to finish with 16 points, four rebounds and four assists. Pope propped up the team's rotation lineup and performed very well in the transition section of the lineup. 
After talking about the losing Wizards, let's talk about the winning Clippers. As for the reason why the Clippers won, I won't be verbose here. Below, I want to focus on the prospects for Harden and the Clippers. For these two problems, I would like to describe them in the sentence "Harden created miracles, but the Clippers won but encountered obstacles". 
Let's start with Harden. In this game, Harden played 25 minutes, shooting 9 of 13, including 6 of 9 three-pointers and 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 28 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 blocks, plus or minus +19. I would call this game Harden's best game of the season, and you wouldn't object to it, right? The reason why it is said to be Harden's strongest game is very simple, that is, Harden scored 21 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, helping the team lay the foundation for winning. Moreover, Harden also created three NBA miracles in this game. 
1: 21 points in a single quarter is Harden's highest score in a single quarter this season. 2: Harden has surpassed the 2,900 three-point mark in his career, ranking third all-time behind Ray Allen and Curry. 3: Harden surpassed Inglish (25,613 points) in total points in the regular season and rose to 21st on the NBA's all-time scoring list. 
In this game, Harden can really be described as "four happy coming". After talking about Harden, let's talk about the obstacle encountered by the Clippers, which is nothing else but Wei Shao's injury. During a defensive round, Willis Defensive Poole went off injured and reported by Shams that Willis fractured his left hand. Then, Clippers reporter Tomer Azarly further reported that Major Will is expected to be out for some time. I have to say that Wei Shao's injury is undoubtedly a big problem for the Clippers, and in the sprint to the playoffs, Wei Shao's injury to the Clippers can be said to have been hit hard. 
So far this season, Wei Shao has averaged 111 point 52 rebounds 45 assists and 45 shooting percentages1%, 3-point shooting percentage 268%。More importantly, Wei Shao played very well in the bench lineup, and it was precisely because of Wei Shao's sacrifice that the Clippers' record was able to go all the way. Now without Wei Shao, it is undoubtedly unknown where the Clippers' record will go. **10,000 Fans Incentive Plan
