On January 1st, Beijing time, the Clippers played against the Spurs away from home, and the game ended with the Clippers losing 88-122 to the Spurs. In this game, the Clippers were playing back-to-back, so they would have some physical problems. More importantly, none of the Clippers' players could match up against Wenyambo, so in the game, the Clippers could only watch as Wenyambo helped the Spurs take the lead. Moreover, Powell's offensive state was also very poor in the game, which made it even more difficult for the Clippers to catch up. Not to mention that the Clippers failed to control their own turnovers in this game, so when the Spurs scored from multiple points, the Clippers were also beaten down. This game had already lost suspense by the third quarter. In fact, it is not unacceptable for the Clippers to lose this game. After all, it should be understandable that the Clippers' offensive state is low in back-to-back games. Moreover, Powell has been playing quite well in recent games, so it should be understandable that Powell occasionally appears low in the game. After all, even Harden, who is as strong as him, has appeared low several times this season. Not to mention that this game is still back-to-back, and in this game, it is not only Powell who is low, but also Zubac and others who are also low in the game. Therefore, it is normal for Powell to appear low. Finally, in this game, Powell got 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists with 12 shots and…

The Clippers were playing back-to-back games, having reversed a 14-point deficit to defeat the Pelicans the previous day. Their physical condition was not as good as the Spurs. This was the second meeting between the two teams this season. In their first encounter, the Spurs, who had led by 26 points, were reversed by the Clippers. They were eager to seek revenge today.

NBA regular season continues to play, the Clippers lost 86-122 to the Spurs on the road, ending their 3-game winning streak. In this game, the Clippers started off in a terrible state, with their offense repeatedly failing and a very low success rate under the basket. The Spurs took advantage of the Clippers' physical issues from back-to-back games, frequently pushing counterattacks and speeding up. By the end of the first quarter, the Clippers were already trailing by 14 points at 17-31. In the second quarter, although the Clippers' offense improved somewhat, they still couldn't stop the Spurs' momentum, scoring 26-32 in the quarter, and by halftime, the Clippers were down by 20 points. In the second half, the Clippers remained passive on both offense and defense. By the middle of the third quarter, their deficit had exceeded 25 points. In the latter half of the third quarter, Tyronn Lue began to bring in third-string substitutes one after another, and the entire fourth quarter turned into garbage time, with the point difference growing larger and larger, ultimately resulting in a disaster. After the loss, the Clippers' record stands at 19 wins and 14 losses. So where exactly did they lose in this game? Perhaps the data can give us some answers. Harden shot 11 for 5, made 2 out of 6 three-pointers, and 5 out of 6 free throws, scoring 17 points with 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block, and 5 turnovers. Today, Harden's personal offensive performance was actually quite good, especially in the first quarter when the whole…

NBA regular season, an internal battle in the West, the Clippers against the Spurs. Although the Clippers are ranked higher than the Spurs, they are playing back-to-back games, plus Cardi Zige is not playing, so it's not that easy to win. The key to victory is whether they can contain Wenyambo. The Spurs have sent out their full squad, determined to win this crucial battle for position, which is worth two games. In the first half, the Clippers were thrashed by the Spurs, trailing by as many as 20 points, 43-63. The Clippers' offense clearly had major issues, with Harden struggling to keep the team afloat in the first quarter, but completely fizzling out in the second, while his teammates were not pulling their weight. Additionally, the team's signature defense was nowhere to be seen, and turnovers were also high. The Spurs played very well, with Wenyambo attacking and defending comprehensively, and Paul orchestrating from behind. Under their leadership, the other players also played comfortably. Powell scored 12 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals; Zubac scored 3 points and 3 rebounds; Dunn scored 7 points; Harden scored 13 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 block; Sohan scored 4 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 steal; Barnes scored 3 points and 3 rebounds; Wen Ban scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 blocks; Vassell scored 6 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 steals; Paul scored 5 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals; Castle scored 5 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 assists; Keldon…

Since the Sacramento Kings fired head coach Mike Brown, this best coach who just completed a renewal in the offseason has now become a scapegoat for players and management. Despite All-Star guard De'Aaron Fox actively clarifying that he had no direct relationship with Brown's dismissal, his various actions have begun to ferment. Focusing on the true face of the Kings suffering five consecutive losses after being killed by a 3+1 by Ayton, the head coach was furious and directly blamed the players for not following the tactics during the post-game media conference. Perhaps it was this angry speech that completely caused the Kings to disintegrate from within. However, this farce has not ended. The seemingly stable Fox is making his final efforts. He previously rejected a 3-year $165 million renewal contract offered by management and later joined forces with agent Rich Paul to challenge management, hoping to leave the city of Sacramento before the trade deadline. Given the team's current competitive state, it is difficult to have any leverage to retain Fox. For the contract expiring in 2026, the Kings do not want to lose this talent for nothing, so they must trade him to acquire more valuable assets. Among them, several potential suitors have emerged, such as the San Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets, and Los Angeles Lakers, all of whom can offer more attractive chips. On December 31, 2024, Beijing time, Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report reported: The Sacramento Kings' high-level officials stated that they have a strong interest in the Rockets' No. 3 pick in 24 years, Reed…

The NBA league has many playboys, such as Thompson, Griffin, Simmons, Harden, and other players. They are powerful, but since they entered the league, their girlfriends have been constantly changing. At the same time, there are also many good men, such as James, Curry, Paul, Westbrook, and other players. They are the representatives of being faithful from beginning to end. They all went from first love to marriage, and even after achieving fame and success, there was no scandal. Paul is already 39 years old this year, one of the oldest active players, but he still has an eight-pack abs. His wife looks ordinary, but they have been in love for 20 years and are very happy. Paul has entered the countdown of his career. He turned 39 this year, but his performance on the court is still outstanding, so the Spurs offered him a big contract of $11 million for one year. So far this season, as the starting point guard, Paul can average 9.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game, still an efficient organizer, and the Spurs' record is also good. As a veteran, Paul is undoubtedly very powerful. In the past few years, Paul has been obviously declining, especially after leaving the Suns, moving between the Warriors and the Spurs, and at one point even becoming a substitute. However, looking back at Paul's career, his resume is absolutely brilliant. He was drafted in 2005 and started his career with the Hornets. In his third year, he had an impressive average of 21.1 points, 4 rebounds,…

In this season's NBA data statistics, you will find that many amazing data have been produced! In this era of small ball with a data explosion, star players can easily create NBA historical records, and teams have also set many historical records! This season, the Celtics set an NBA record, averaging 91.5 shots per game in 32 games played so far, including an astonishing average of 50.7 three-point attempts, accounting for 55.4% of all shots! They are the only team in NBA history to average over 50 three-point attempts per game and the only team with a three-point attempt ratio exceeding 50%! They are a true three-point powerhouse, with their five players on the court shooting crazy threes from the outside against any opponent, a true "five-out" approach! This differs from the Warriors' cut-and-pass system, where their style relies more on positioning and cuts to create open shots! The Celtics, on the other hand, stand behind the three-point line and shoot directly, making it difficult to win if their shooting touch isn't good! The exaggerated stats put up by the players are even more numerous, with typical representatives like Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Wembanyama, Doncic, Trae Young, Towns, and others who have all put up single-game stats not seen before in NBA history this season! And today, we're talking about the main character, Wembanyama!

NBA regular season, the first day of 2025 game point spread win-loss analysis and prediction: Raptors vs Celtics (-16.5) Pre-game analysis: The Raptors have suffered ten consecutive losses, their strength is weak, and the road to rebuilding is long. The Celtics' home court used to be a devil's home court, but this season they have already lost six home games, making it less intimidating. In the last game, the Green Army lost at home to the Pacers, with Brown shooting 21 for 13 and scoring 31 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists, but it was not enough to prevent defeat. The team is plagued by injuries, with Holiday and Porzingis both out due to injuries. The Celtics are strong in both offense and defense, and compared to the Raptors, the two teams have a significant difference in strength. Point spread win-loss prediction: The Celtics are giving too many points, and I favor the Raptors winning on the road with the points. Bucks vs Pacers (-1.5) Pre-game analysis: The Bucks have been in poor form recently, with Antetokounmpo and Lillard both out due to injuries. In the last game, Lillard returned, but the team still lost to the Bulls. Lillard shot 19 for 8 and scored 29 points, 6 rebounds, and 12 assists, but there were issues with the team's tactical execution. After Lillard passed the ball, he couldn't get it back. Middleton has struggled to live up to expectations since his major injury, and his performance in the last game was disastrous, missing shots and committing turnovers in crucial moments.…
