On January 27, Beijing time, in an NBA regular season game that ended today, the Clippers defeated the Magic 111-102 and won 2 consecutive wins. In yesterday's game, the Clippers also completed a 35-point super reversal against the Wizards, with a total of 49 points in 2 games, such a victory made the Clippers all excited.
Speaking about another team reversal, Clippers player Batum said: "That's who we are. It's a good set of back-to-back matches. Clippers coach Tyrone Lu said: "I think it all started last season. In the early days of our third quarter against the Hawks, we had all the starters on the bench. I think that game changed our season and defined us. ”
If you want to say which team is the most resilient team this season, then it may be the Clippers, in the absence of Leonard and George, the two stars, they can still win one victory after another with the civilian lineup, of which head coach Terren Lu is indispensable, according to statistics, throughout January Terren Lu has led the Clippers to reverse double digits 5 times, this season he led the Clippers to reverse double digits 9 times, all of which are the first in the league.
Such results are not luck, Clippers player Bledsoe directly pointed out Tyrenlu's coaching style, saying that in addition to Tylen Lu, only Greg Popovich will put players who are not playing well on the bench and send players they think they can win.
Judging by the performances this season, Tyrenlu can indeed be in the same class as Popovich. In fact, over the years, Tyronelu's coaching ability has been underestimated, and some even believe that in 2016, he was able to bring the Cavaliers to reverse the Warriors in the 1-3 finals, but now Tyrenlu has helped the Clippers win the game with one excellent platoon after another, constantly proving his ability.
At this time, perhaps it is the lakers' turn to feel embarrassed. It is very ironic that when the Lakers decided to change the coach in 2019, they actually intended Tyrone Lu at the beginning, and the negotiations between the two sides were very pleasant, but then because of the intervention of the Lambis couple, the Lakers finally gave up Tyrone Lu and chose Vogel, and finally Tyrone Lu turned into the head coach of the Lakers' sworn enemy Clippers in the same city, and forced the Lakers into a desperate situation this season.
After winning this victory, the Clippers, who won two consecutive games, managed to rank eighth in the West and squeezed the Lakers to ninth in the West, while the Clippers without a double star were ahead of the Lakers with the big three in the West, which undoubtedly proved once again that Tyrenlu's coaching ability is indeed stronger than Vogel. Although Vogel has contributed to leading the Lakers to win the championship in 2020, from his overall coaching performance in the past three years, he is indeed slightly inferior in ability to Tyrenlu, and if the Lakers change to Tyrenlu to coach over the years, perhaps their results will be even better.
It should be noted that the current Record of the Lakers and Clippers is flat, the Clippers are eighth in the West, the Lakers are in the ninth place in the West, and the Lakers will challenge the 76ers on the road, if they can't win this victory, then they may not be able to return to the top eight in the West in a short period of time, which will undoubtedly put a huge pressure on the team. And given the current rankings, the Lakers and Clippers may even play the playoffs at the end of the season, which may be the time when Vogel and Tyrenlu really play out.
