The Clippers suffered a 4-game losing streak, Booker had 21+10+9, and Harden really couldn’t carry him.

The NBA regular season continues, and the Clippers face the Suns at home. The Clippers are currently in very bad shape and have suffered three consecutive losses. However, in this game, the team is expected to reverse its decline. According to the prediction given by ESPN, the Clippers' winning rate is 60.8%, while the Suns are only 39.2%. I don't know if this prediction can become reality.

The Clippers can be said to have experienced great joys and sorrows this season. In the previous preseason, several new players played very well, but who would have thought that entering the regular season, Bill's performance was too disappointing, and Paul has been completely unable to make any contribution. In a circle, the team still has to rely on Harden. This is really not a good thing for Harden.

After the Suns won the last game, the team's confidence skyrocketed. The return of Jaylen Green gave the team another player who can average more than 20 points per game. The combination of him and Booker gave the team full offensive power. In this game, unless Harden breaks out, the Suns will win.

The starting lineup for this game is, Clippers: Dunn, Jones, Zubac, Bill, Harden!

Suns: Allen, Dillon, Marvel, Green, Booker!

At the beginning of the game, the Suns attacked first. Allen came up and hit a 3-pointer. Mawei caught the ball under the basket and made a dunk. Zubac hit a hook and Jaylen Green hit a mid-range shot. The score came to 10:3, and the Suns led by 7 points. Harden stopped the bleeding with two points, and Bill finally scored one. It was not easy. Booker took a step and made a direct shot, and Harden responded with a 3-pointer.

Ma Wei scored with a dunk, Zubac responded with a dunk, and the two big centers began to compete. Booker scored two points, and then Mawei made consecutive free throws and scored 4 points in a row. Jones caught the ball under the basket, scored the ball, and added free throws. He scored 3 points in a row, and the point difference came to 5 points. Allen hit a 3-pointer, Collins responded with a mid-range shot, and Lopez scored another 3-pointer, stopping the Suns directly and bringing the score to 25:11.

Harden came on his own, breaking through and scoring a layup. Iguodaro responded quickly with two free throws. Lopez raised his head high under the basket and hit the ball easily. Iguodaro also made a mid-range jumper. Booker made a strong 2+1, and the score reached 32:27, and then reached 5 points. Christie made a tip-in, and Booker made another mid-range jumper. At the end of the first quarter, the Suns led the Clippers by 6 points, 35:29.

The game entered the second quarter. Collins made a layup and scored the first goal. He committed 8 fouls and made two free throws. At 35:33, the score difference was 2 points. Bill missed a 3-pointer. Dunn made a reverse layup. At 35:35, the two sides were tied. The Suns immediately called a timeout and came back quickly. The ship was still in good condition, Collins scored 2+1, and the Clippers took the lead directly, but then Dillon suddenly pulled up and scored a 3-pointer, and Goodwin also scored an unreasonable 3-pointer. The Suns quickly overtook the lead by 5 points, and the score reached 47:42.

Then the bigger the better, Booker broke through and scored a layup, Gillespie hit two consecutive 3-pointers, and then the third 3-pointer came as promised, directly confusing the Clippers. The score reached 60:46, and the Suns led to 14 points. The first half was over, and the Clippers were basically out of the game.

In the second half, the Suns maintained the lead. In the end, the Suns defeated the Clippers 114:103.

Game data, Dillon scored 16 points, Mawei 19 points, O'Neal 12 points, Booker 21 points, Zubac 21 points and 15 rebounds, Jones 7 points, Bill 12 points, Harden 13 points, Collins 19 points, Lopez 8 points.

Let’s take a look at this game. Did the performance of the players on both sides meet expectations?

1. Jaylen Green is also very miserable. He entered the state in the last game and played well at the beginning. However, unfortunately, he was seriously injured in the second half of the first quarter. Judging from the game scene, it was the hamstring injury in his right leg, while he was injured in the left hamstring before.

2. Dillon, he doesn’t seem to be playing the game, but is specifically looking for trouble for Harden. As soon as he sees Harden performing well, he will get into all kinds of moods, which is really annoying. The referee next to him looked quite speechless.

3. Ma Wei played really well. After being put into the starting lineup recently, his condition has improved significantly. He scored 8 points in the first quarter, playing better than Zubac.

4. Booker, he is playing very calmly now. He played for 12 minutes in the first quarter and scored 9 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. I have to say that he is becoming more and more versatile now. It's not bad to get 21+10+9 today.

5. Bill made 1 of 5 shots at the start of the game, missed both 3-pointers, scored 4 points, and played very average. Judging from the current state, it is a permanent decline. It is really difficult to return to the top. But the strange thing is that he did not play well. Director Lu asked him to play for the longest time. Leave as soon as possible. You no longer owe the Clippers.

5. Lopez played an important role. When the team was almost 10 points behind in the first quarter, he scored 5 points in a row to help the team catch up with the score, especially the shots from outside the 3-point line, which opened up space for the team, which was very outstanding.

6. Collins can be said to be one of the best players recently. His shooting is now very stable and his performance on the offensive end is very stable. The only problem is that Coach Lu has suppressed his talent.

7. Christie played well and rebounded very well. In 6 minutes, he scored 4 points and 3 rebounds. This also proves one thing, the team still needs young people.

8. Zubac played average in the first quarter, but he performed very well after the second quarter and his condition improved. When Kawhi is not playing, Zubac must stand up. If he can't play well, the Clippers will really be out of business..

9. It was another exhausting day for Harden. He played the full 12 minutes in the first quarter and watched Bill operate randomly there. Not only was he mentally tired, but he was also physically tired. If Harden couldn't score more than 30 points in today's game, he basically couldn't win. However, I believe Harden can create a miracle today and the Clippers have no choice.

10. Coach Lu is really intoxicating. There is no adjustment at all. It’s not difficult. It should be simple. If Bill doesn’t play well, then let him be on the bench and let Collins be the starter. Do you still need to hesitate for such a simple question? Now it seems that the Clippers team does not change the coach or the starting lineup. It is really impossible. We've lost 4 games in a row, and if we don't change, we'll lose 5 games in a row.
