Harden's near-triple-double, Morant helplessly swallows defeat.
This game had me sweating in my palms, as if I were back on the outdoor court, drenched in sweat from those days.
Back then, we were a bunch of rough-around-the-edges kids, our skills weren't great, but that fighting spirit still makes my blood boil when I think about it now.
Harden, this old-timer, is still at ease on the court, his composure is truly remarkable.
He's like an experienced chef, perfectly blending various offensive "ingredients" to satisfy his teammates.
In this game, Harden's passing was truly an art, always finding the most comfortable angle to deliver the ball to his teammates.
Look at that bounce pass, threading through the armpits of the Grizzlies players, accurately finding Zubac under the basket, who then easily dunks for points.
That pass was simply brilliant!
And his several passes after breaking through, the timing was just right, making the Grizzlies' defense scatter and fail to cope.
It's like... just like how my wife cooks, mastering the heat so well that the dishes are full of color, flavor, and aroma, making them irresistible.
Morant, on the other hand, is like a young wild horse, full of vitality and explosive power.
His few breakaways were so fast they made my head spin, and I couldn't help but shout in excitement.
But youth is still youth, and his lack of experience made him seem a bit rash in handling the ball at critical moments.
Several strong attacks ended in turnovers, and if he could have been calmer, perhaps the outcome of the game would have been different.
It's like... like when I was young, always wanting to get fat in one bite, but it backfired.
The Clippers had five players score in double figures, which wasn't by chance.
This reflects their philosophy of team basketball, where everyone gets involved in the offense, sharing the ball and achieving together.
It's like a well-running machine, where each part plays an important role.
Without Leonard, they still played with vigor, which further proves the strength of their overall capabilities.
In this game, Zubac's defense in the paint was also a formidable weapon.
He was like a mountain, firmly guarding the Clippers' restricted area.
The Grizzlies' inside players seemed helpless against him, repeatedly being denied entry.
This reminds me of the captain of our school's basketball team back then, that guy was also a defensive powerhouse, like a wall under the basket, daunting to face.
How far can the Clippers go this season?
Honestly, I don't know either.
The Western Conference is full of strong teams, and the competition is fierce.
But the strength and resilience they've shown has filled me with hope for their future.
Perhaps they really can create miracles and lift that coveted O'Brien trophy?
This game was not only a battle between Harden and Morant, but also a clash of two different styles.
Harden represents experience and wisdom, while Morant represents youth and vitality.
This game also showed me the future of the NBA, full of hope and endless possibilities.
Do you think the Clippers can win the championship this season?
Who do you think is stronger, Harden or Morant?
