Chapter 1025 The Lakers Are always...being Beaten (Fifth Update!)

Siakam broke out completely, scoring a game-high 26 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks!

Brogdon scored 17 points and 7 assists, and Bojan scored 15 points.

The Big Four of the Pelicans did not play, but the Big Three on the bench scored 58 points together, showing great courage!

In addition, Dedmon had a double-double of 10 points and 10 rebounds, Kuzma scored 9 points on 2 three-pointers, and Lamb had 8 points and 3 rebounds.

When the game was being played, the Clippers fans were very unconvinced and felt that the team did not perform well.

But when I went to watch the game after the game, I especially saw Siakam making sudden inside and outside shots and passing the ball, Brogdon organized and added three points, and Bojan made every shot.

They realize that the Pelicans' win is never a matter of luck, or a matter of me playing well and you playing poorly.

But in terms of talent alone, the Pelicans' substitutes are more talented than this Clippers team!

A very cruel reality.

But it's so cruel.

Everyone’s eyes are attracted to the Big Four of the Pelicans, but in fact the Pelicans’ bench is not weak either!

Siakam is tall and has long arms. He was not favored at first because his offense was too rough.

But after one season and one offseason, he was completely transformed.

There are too many people in the NBA with excellent defense and rough offense, and most of them can't practice it.

But there are also those who can practice it, such as Leonard of the Spurs and Siakam of the Pelicans!

No wonder Brogdon is so strong, but the Pelicans still selected Siakam with a higher pick.

Brogdon chose immediate combat power, Siakam chose talent!

Coupled with Bojan, a starting-level player, Dedmon, who performed well before, Lamb, the Hornets' starter last season, and Kuzma, whose draft pick was not predicted to be a three-pointer but had a good three-pointer!

Regardless of skills, tactics, performance, etc., the strength of the Pelicans' bench itself is very strong!

"I'm Hu Mi. Can you just admit defeat in the next game? I really don't want to be humiliated!"

"No, I am a ship honey. We are being beaten and you want to run away? There is no way. I guess you will lose more than us tomorrow!"

"You're both in trouble, and you're still fighting among yourself! As expected, we are sworn enemies from the same city!"

"Speaking of which, Stevens's operation was really impressive. He even won the game while playing as the main player on the bench. It was a successful wave!"

"I even think the Pelicans may make further rotations when they play the Lakers next game!"

"Get away you boat honey, if he dares to do this, the Lakers will win!"

…

After the Pelicans won the game, there was inevitably another bloody storm on social media.

It is against this background that after two days of rest, the Pelicans continued to visit the Staples Center and ushered in the Lakers game.

The Lakers are now completely rebuilding. The core of the team is Simmons and Ball, plus players such as Pope, Clarkson and Brock Lopez.

And maybe you also know that the Lakers are completely rebuilding. Stevens's game is really as the fans discussed on social media, further rotation!

After the pre-match warm-up of both sides, the starting lineups came out.

For the Lakers, Ball, Clarkson, Pope, Simmons and Lopez.

For the Pelicans, Brogdon, Lamb, Siakam, David West, Harrell!

Neither Bo Yang nor Dedmon will fight!

This is equivalent to a 15-man roster, and 6 people are on a truce. Even including Ding Yanyuhang and Caruso who are present, there are only 11 people in total!

Lakers head coach Scott rubbed his nose and scratched his head when he saw this lineup.

This is really cruel!

The game started quickly, and Lopez won the first offensive opportunity for the Lakers.

Ball organized the frontcourt, and the Pelicans defended a 2-3 zone defense.

Stevens wants to inspect the players but also wants to win. This is because he knows that the Lakers are weak in three-point shooting, so they mainly focus on protecting the basket!

Sure enough, after the Lakers dropped the ball from the outside, Ball made a three-pointer from the open position.

The ball was obviously deflected and hit the front of the basket. Harrell protected the defensive rebound.

The Pelicans counterattacked directly. Brogdon caught the ball and pushed Ball out of bounds. He knocked the ball to Siakam in advance, who dunked and scored first!

There was an uproar on the sidelines.

Simmons showed his talent in the frontcourt and pushed to the basket causing West to foul.

But unfortunately he missed both free throws.

This past summer, there was constant news about him and Jenner, the younger sister of the Kardashian family, and I don’t know if he spent too much energy on that.

West protected the defensive rebound.

The Pelicans played in the frontcourt, Brogdon and Siakam took a pick-and-roll and then made a three-pointer!

And back on the defensive end, Siakam intercepted Ball's pass to Pope, and scored 2+1 against Clarkson in the fast break!

The extra penalty was a solid hit, and the Pelicans started 8-0!

The Lakers were beaten right from the start!

The most excited people at this time are the Clippers fans.

Both teams were competing in the playoffs to see who was stronger.

Now they are all rebuilding, and the fun is who is better at the other party!

Fortunately, veteran Lopez stepped forward to stabilize the morale at the critical moment. He first set up a high turret on the outside and hit a three-pointer, and then assisted Simmons to score two points.

After a 5-0 run, the Lakers were at a stalemate.

About 9 minutes into the first quarter, the two teams began to rotate.

At this time, Rose and Ding Yanyuhang were substituted for the Pelicans.

There was a commotion in the place.

This is Rose's first appearance on behalf of the Pelicans, and it is also Ding Yanyuhang's first time.

After Rose came up, he used Kuzma's pick-and-roll to break through to the basket and score the ball against Zubac.

His abilities are indeed still there as Tang Tian knew, but there are hidden dangers of injuries, making it difficult for him to play full or even half-time.

Pope's outside three-point attempt failed, and Thomas Bryant protected the defensive rebound.

When he advanced to the frontcourt, it was Rose who used Bryant's pick-and-roll to pull up a three-pointer from the outside.

"Uh-huh!"

Come in!

Every team has its own technical characteristics. The Pelicans' characteristic is three-pointers, especially the three-pointers of role players.

Even when Tang Tian is single-core, this is what the coaching staff has been asking for, because the sense of space and Tang Tian's singles ability complement each other.

Therefore, after Rose entered the Pelicans training camp, the coaching staff not only allowed him to recuperate from injuries, but also focused on three-point training.

Rose was a super giant before and didn't need to practice, but when he arrived at the Pelicans, he was just a role player, and the coaching staff required him to practice.

Judging from the ball just now, Nash’s training method has a very good effect!

The Lakers' frontcourt tactics, Zubac's inside shot was interfered by Bryant.

The Lakers are right to covet Bryant, who is just as tough around the basket as Dedmon.

Looking back, Rose broke through and was double-teamed, passing the ball to Ding Yanyuhang on the outside, who made a decisive three-pointer from an open position.

"Uh-huh!"

The basketball went hollow into the net, and Ding Yanyuhang scored his first point in the NBA, and it was a three-pointer!

24 to 14, after the Pelicans launched an 8-0 offensive, they opened the point difference to double digits!

The Lakers... got beaten again!
