We are going to lose again, Brother Deng should take some rest!

On November 21, the NBA regular season continued, and the Clippers challenged the Magic away from home. The Clippers have been a bit miserable recently. The team has suffered two consecutive losses, and its record has reached 4 wins and 10 losses, ranking 11th in the Western Conference. According to the winning rate prediction given by ESPN, the Clippers have 31% and the Magic have 69%. Can the Clippers gain a chance of survival in this game?

How bad is the Clippers' current performance? In the past 9 games, they have only won 1 game, but the team is not completely hopeless. According to the latest news, Kawhi's ankle injury is slowly recovering, and he has been gradually strengthening training to prepare for his comeback. But many fans have different opinions on this matter. They think that there is no point in coming back. They think that they will continue to rest after returning for 5 games!

This is indeed a problem. If Kawhi comes back, plays a few games, and then rests, it will damage the team's chemical reaction, and it is really better not to come back.

The starting lineup for this game is, Magic: Silva, Wagner Jr., Carter, Bane, Suggs.

Clippers: Sanders, Collins, Zubac, Dunn, Harden.

At the beginning of the game, Dunn broke through with the ball and scored with a throw from the basket. The Clippers started 2:0. Silva scored a layup against Zubac under the basket, Collins missed the throw, Carter hit the rebound, Zubac missed the hook, and Wagner scored with a basket. The score came to 6:2, and the Magic led by 4 points. Harden fouled and made one of two free throws, and Suggs scored a 3-pointer at the buzzer, 9:3. Collins broke through and scored a layup, and Zubac made a mismatch, 9:7. Sacks hit the ball with a throw, the score reached 11:7, and the game entered a timeout.

After returning from the timeout, Harden quickly pushed Dunn forward and scored a layup, but soon, Suggs scored a 3-pointer from the outside and hit the target. Harden also came with an answer ball, and then was fouled again. Unfortunately, he made one of two free throws, and the score came to 14:13, with a 1-point difference.

Suggs made an inbound pass, and Bizetta made an alley-oop under the basket. Then Suggs stole Sanders and scored a reverse layup. The score reached 18:13, and the Clippers fell behind to 5 points. Then Harden broke through, Collins cut through the air, and took off for a dunk. The Magic called a timeout!

The game continued, Isaac scored a 3-pointer, and Harden responded immediately with a 3-pointer. Isaac dunked under the basket, Harden fouled, and made three consecutive free throws, all of which were made. But then Howard scored another 3 points. Fortunately, Lopez responded immediately with a 3-pointer. Isaac made up a dunk, and at the end of the first quarter, the Clippers trailed the Magic by 6 points at 24:30.

Game data, Wagner scored 2 points, Suggs 10 points, Sander 0 points, Collins 4 points, Zubac 2 points and 4 rebounds, Denn 4 points, Harden 11 points, Lopez 3 points, Paul 0 points.

In this game, the Clippers suffered a lot in terms of rebounds. In the first quarter, the Magic grabbed 15 rebounds and the Clippers had 9. The Magic had 5 offensive rebounds and the Clippers had none. After many attacks, the Clippers were about to catch up with the score. The Magic failed to score for the first time, but then they grabbed an offensive rebound and then successfully hit the ball. Although the Magic's recent record is not good, the team's forward strength is very strong. It is very difficult for the Clippers to win this game!

Let’s take a look at the performance of the players of the Clippers and Magic in today’s game.

1. Suggs performed very well today. He easily scored 10 points in the first quarter and played very efficiently.

2. Wagner's performance at the beginning of the game was average, but he was very comprehensive, scoring data in terms of points, rebounds, and assists.

3. Dunn played very actively today. With a small card in the United States, Bill and others, Dunn's role in the game has also increased, and his vitality has returned.

4. Sanders gained the trust of Coach Lu and was continuously promoted to the starting lineup. However, the pressure of starting was a bit high and his performance was not ideal.

5. Zubac did not use his advantage today. Although he grabbed good rebounds, he was really bad at offensive rebounds.

6. When will Corinth return to its previous state? When I was on the bench before, I could score very easily. Now that I am a starter, I have been unable to find my form. Is he really not suitable to be a starter?

7. Paul is really too old now, too slow, and likes to press the pace. He is really not suitable for playing games anymore.

8. After Lopez joined the Clippers, his performance dropped off a cliff compared to last season with the Bucks, and Lu still failed to make good use of his guidance.

9. Harden played the entire first quarter again today, scoring 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists in 12 minutes. This is already very good, but the current game is like this. As long as he takes a rest, the score will soon be widened by the opponent. So the reality is like this. The Clippers' victory or defeat depends entirely on Harden's performance. There is too much pressure on Harden. Take the first quarter as an example. The team had a total of four assists, and Harden only got three. The sense of dependence was too strong. It's better to let Harden take a good rest for a few games. It's not easy to win away games anyway.

10. Director Lu, can he think of a solution? Collins and Lopez both played well last season. How to activate them? Coach Lu must find a way to prevent this year's signings from going to waste.

We are going to lose again. Brother Deng should take some rest! Clippers vs. Magic, Harden scored 11 points in a single quarter, so tired!
