<p>Just a couple of years ago,<strong> Paul George</strong> was widely known around the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a><strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> </strong>as one of the best two-way players in the world. He had an <strong>MVP-caliber season </strong>with the <strong>Oklahoma City Thunder,</strong> was a dominant defensive player, and could put up 25+ points on the other end of the floor. Sadly, though, his reputation took a massive hit last year when he started talking a big game and couldn’t deliver in the playoffs, contributing to the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-clippers-t96054" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong> Los Angeles Clippers </strong></a>blowing a 3-1 lead to the <strong>Denver Nuggets.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<p>George’s words prompted some criticism around his colleagues, who believe he’s yet to prove that he’s a top-tier player rather than just an All-Star. And, according to <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Los Angeles Lakers’</strong></a> veteran <strong>Jared Dudley, </strong>that motivated them last season:</p>
<p><em>“We hear some of those guys talking about how they’re the team to beat in LA.I<strong>t’s fine if Kawhi (Leonard) says stuff like that. He’s defending a championship.</strong> We don’t trip if someone like Patrick Beverley is talking trash; that’s how he feeds his family. We get it. We respect the hustle,”</em> he said on his mini-book.</p>
<p><em><strong>“But we think it’s disrespectful for Paul George, who hasn’t won, to put himself on the level of Bron (James) and AD (Anthony Davis). </strong>This motivates us. When we see those guys around the compound, we don’t really kick it with them. The one exception of course is Markieff, whose twin brother, Marcus, is on the Clippers. This probably keeps tensions from boiling ove</em>r,” he concluded.</p>

<h2>Paul George Claps Back At Jared Dudley</h2>
<p>Paul George, however, didn’t even know who was the one who had said all that stuff. When asked about it, he just said<em><strong>“God bless him. God bless you, Jared Dudley. I don’t know what it is. Dudes love throwing my name in stuff, but god bless you, Jared,”</strong></em> looking completely unfazed by the news.</p>

<h2>Tyronn Lue Rips Dudley: ‘Who Cares?’</h2>
<p>But perhaps the best response to Dudley’s criticism came from Los Angeles Clippers coach <strong>Tyronn Lue.</strong> Lue held back his NSFW thoughts and summed it up with a quick answer: “Who cares?”</p>

<p><em><strong>“A book? Jared Dudley? … I know I can’t cuss on here so I won’t, but who cares? Just be who you are, play your game. Who cares what people say?”</strong></em> Lue said.</p>
<p>Well, that pretty much sums it up. Paul George is a top-10 player in the league, while Jared Dudley is – and has always been – a<strong> bottom-of-the-bench kind of guy</strong>. He’s talking a lot now that he – barely – played for a championship team, even though he went scoreless in the playoffs. So yeah, George shouldn’t mind what he has to say. At all.</p>

Paul George and Tyronn Lue clap back at Jared Dudley's critics with an epic respone - Bolavip US

<p>Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past five years or so, chances are that you’ve heard of<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/stephen-curry-t132201" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <strong>Stephen Curry.</strong></a> He became the face of the <strong>best team the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> had seen in decades </strong>and is now consider the greatest shooter of all time.</p>
<p>Curry can explode for 30 points in the blink of an eye and his limitless-range make him one of the most unstoppable <strong>offensive juggernauts</strong> to ever live. He’s changed the way the game is played and even how to play defense.</p>
<p>That’s why <strong>Tyronn Lue</strong> knew that he had a lot of planning to do ahead of the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-clippers-t96054" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Clippers</a> </strong>clash with the<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/golden-state-warriors-t101550" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Golden State Warriors</a>,</strong> especially considering that Curry was coming off scoring 92 points in two games.</p>

<h2>Tyronn Lue Says The Key To Stopping Stephen Curry Is Giving Him Different Looks</h2>
<p>The Clippers knew that stopping Curry was going to be a tough task but they didn’t shy away from the moment. In fact, they held him to just <strong>13 points on 5/17 shooting and 1/6 from beyond the arc, </strong>and was pretty uncomfortable for most of the game.</p>
<p>So, when asked about what were the keys to stopping a player like Curry, the former<strong> Cleveland Cavaliers </strong>coach said that you simply had to give him as many different looks as you can <strong>to mess up with his rhythm:</strong></p>
<p><em>“Steph’s a great player. <strong>I think you just gotta give him different looks. </strong>I talk about it all the time, w</em><em>hen you’re dealing with a great player, <strong>I think you gotta mix your coverages up</strong>, gotta blitz him some, gotta switch some, maybe a little box-and-one, little everything just to keep him off-balance. Can’t give him a steady balance of the same thing,”</em> Lue told the media, as quoted by <strong>ClutchPoints.</strong></p>
<p><span></span> </p>
<div class="ck-related-news">  <span data-src="/usa/contenidos/2020/12/27/noticia_0006.html" data-type="news"></span>  <p></p>
<div id="relatedNews-10">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>The Clippers<strong> doubled and triple-teamed Curry </strong>on almost every single possession. They tried to trap him in the backcourt from time to time and were just flat-out physical with them. Notably, it paid off as they left the building with a 108-101 win:</p>
<p><em>“Our philosophy is we want to try and take the best player out because we know that Steph can go for 60 just like he did the other day. <strong>So we wanna just make sure we trap him, keep a body on him, be physical with him</strong>, and with that being said, other guys are gonna have good games. I thought [Eric] Paschall was really good in that first half and [Andrew] Wiggins got a pretty good game going, but when you’re trying to take out the best player, other guys are gonna get opportunities and they stepped up and had a decent game,” </em>the coach concluded.</p>
<p><span></span> </p>
<div class="ck-related-news">  <span data-src="/usa/contenidos/2020/08/12/noticia_0003.html" data-type="news"></span>  <p></p>
<div id="relatedNews-7">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Now, the Clippers and Warriors will face off one more time so Tyronn Lue will have another chance to prove his point. Then again, keeping tabs on a scorer like Curry two games in a row <strong>will be easier said than done.</strong></p>

Clippers' Tyronn Lue reveals how to stop Stephen Curry

Clippers' Tyronn Lue reveals how to stop Stephen Curry - Bolavip US

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-clippers-t96054" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Los Angeles Clippers</strong></a> lost a huge piece in <strong>Montrezl Harrell </strong>in the offseason. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year left the team in free agency to join their city rivals <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers</a> </strong>in one of the most shocking moves of the summer.</p>
<p>That’s why they had to dig deep in the market to sign former <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong></a> champion <strong>Serge Ibaka. </strong>Ibaka had already been teammates with <strong>Kawhi Leonard</strong> in the <strong>Toronto Raptors,</strong> helping them win the ring two seasons ago.</p>
<p>Unsurprisingly, Kawhi Leonard actually played a huge role in recruiting Ibaka to Los Angeles, meaning that it’s pretty clear that they hold a close relationship, <strong>even if Leonard isn’t much of a talker.</strong><span></span></p>

<h2>Kawhi Leonard Jokes That The Clippers Have Serge Ibaka On The Trading Block</h2>
<p>Nonetheless, Ibaka paid Leonard back his trust by accidentally elbowing him in the mouth, forcing Kawhi to get stitches, miss a couple of games, and<strong> play with a strange mask </strong>once he was able to come back.</p>
<p>When asked about his new look and how his teammates reacted, Leonard acknowledged that some of them have mocked him and joked by adding that <em><strong>“Serge can’t talk too much. We got him on the trading block right now. Whoever wants him, let us know.”</strong></em></p>

<p>Needless to say, this <strong>was supposed to be just a joke </strong>between two teammates and friends and that didn’t mean that the Clippers were actually trying to move Ibaka, who got off to a great start to the season.</p>
<p>However, it seems like some people around the NBA actually took that seriously and even reached out to coach Tyronn Lue about Ibaka’s availability, so he had to clear the air about the situation: <em><strong>“That’s off the table. Somebody told me about it today, that’s pretty funny,</strong></em>” Lue laughingly said.</p>
