The best team in the NBA is currently the Celtics, who literally broke up the Suns 125 to 98 just a week ago, but themselves fell victim to Lob City of all people. Because yesterday’s result was 113:93 in favor of the Californians.
What was outstanding that evening was not only the performance of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, who scored over 50 points together, but also the extremely good work on the board, thanks to which you were able to assert yourself in the end.
The rebound ratio of 46 to 36 in favor of the Clippers made it clear who enjoyed the air supremacy in the perimeter that evening. This should also be taken as a hint for the upcoming match…
Because the Suns will definitely have a hard time asserting themselves once morest the Clippers’ strong physique, so they will have fewer chances of gaining possession.
In order to compensate for the lower ball possession percentage in terms of points, the hitting accuracy would have to be above average. But in the second game of the season without Devin Booker, the aforementioned 32% FG rate doesn’t give me any confidence in this regard.
Devin Booker has to play tonight to at least make the game more balanced. But should “Book” fail, the Suns might get under the wheels once more – the risk is there!
