We struggled against the bottom-ranked team. victoriously won.
The Los Angeles Clippers won a difficult 131-126 win against the San Antonio Spurs in the 2022-2023 NBA regular season held at the AT&T Center on the 21st (Korean time).
The Clippers returned to the 50% win rate by harvesting their 24th win (24th loss) of the season. It is the Clippers who have been experiencing the worst slump with 2 wins and 9 losses in the last 11 games. It is laughable that the losing streak was broken, but the performance itself was evaluated as quite frustrating.
In the first half, San Antonio gave up 72 runs. Kawhi Leonard struggled on both sides of the offense and defense, but the team defense was lacking. Jeremy Sohan, Romeo Langford and Josh Richardson all conceded points. 메이저놀이터
With the start of the third quarter, Caldon Johnson gave up and the score widened. The Clippers, whose instep was on fire, raised their concentration and pursued. Leonard’s Faderway and Ivica Zubachi’s dunk shot cut San Antonio’s flow, and Paul George’s breakout score exploded and pursued.
While Jacob Puddle and Johnson’s field struggles slowed down, the Clippers managed to tie the game again (93-93) with a 3-point shot following Terrence Man and Leonard’s dunk.
The 4th quarter was greeted with a close game. The tight balance between the two teams did not intend to be broken. However, in the middle of the fourth quarter, Jackson’s 3-point shot and Paul George’s layup led the Clippers little by little, and Marcus Morris Senior scored a decisive 3-point shot, widening the gap to 8 points (125-117) with 2 minutes and 24 seconds left. Then Leonard scored an alley-oop, making it 10 points. He allowed a fierce pursuit right before the end, but he reached the victory by maintaining the lead.
Victory is victory, but it is obviously a pity that San Antonio, who is at the bottom, struggled with most of the elite members such as Kawhi Leonard (36 points, 7 assists) and Paul George (16 points, 12 assists) in a sortie. It was a final 5-point victory that would surely leave a sense of shame.
