After Nash was dismissed from get out of class, Irving was also suspended for five games, during which time the team improved its defense. Who is the bigger problem between Nash and Irving, we won't know until Irving returns. Today Durant talked about Xiaoka and Irving: " Irving played on and off last season, Leonard was out of season, the Nets and Clippers are strong once the lineup is complete. "
reporter Asked again: "You have all been injured, what advice do you have for Xiaoka?" Durant's response was watertight: "Come on, Leonard is one of the best in history! He has experienced injuries and knows how to manage them well. My own body!" The reporter asked George , and Pickle replied: "Here, we won't put pressure on Xiaoka to come back!" Adversarial training, although there is still some distance from the comeback, is a positive signal. Fans may have questions: Hasn’t Xiaoka already returned this season? That's right, played 1 game, rested 1 game; played 1 more game, then rested 10 games, and has yet to come back...
Leonard has only played 2 games for the Clippers this season, averaging 21 games per game In minutes, he only scored 12.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.5 steals, with three shooting percentages: 44.4%, 16.7% and 88.9%. What happened to the little card? Just come back and truce! The reason given by the Clippers is that Leonard is still "recovering from anterior cruciate ligament surgery." Among all the league's super giants, Leonard should have missed the most games. Since entering the league in 2011, he has only played 578 regular-season games so far. Butler , who is in the same session as Xiaoka, has played 700 regular season games so far. The Clippers are very cautious about Xiaoka's injury. Tyronn Lue said: "Leonard has no timetable for his return." Played 274 games. After joining the Clippers for more than three years, Leonard played only 111 regular-season games. Pierce said: "We are always questioning the attendance rate of thick eyebrows, but no one has added Leonard to the ranks. We always keep silent about the issue of the photo card wearing casual clothes."
No one questioned the ability of a healthy photo card, In the 2020-21 regular season, he averaged 24.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.6 steals per game, with three shooting percentages: 51.2%, 39.8% and 88.5%. playoffs averaged 30.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 2.1 steals, and three shooting percentages: 57.3%, 39.3% and 88%.
