This is the kind of evening that is good for a shooter like him. On the prosecution of the Heat last night, in the heart of his worst season with “scoring” in career, Bogdan Bogdanovic Signed his best match since his arrival at the Clippers, and the season short.
After three games as a replacement, the Serbian was again in the CLIPPER five, Kawhi Leonard being on the sidelines for this second meeting of “Back-to-Back”.
And the former Hawks player did not disappoint with his 30 points (11/16 on shots including 4/7 from afar), 11 rebounds and 4 assists (but 5 lost balloons) in 39 minutes. With a +19 score when he was at stake.
A journalist questions him after the match on his ease of creating his shot and converting to all distances. “” It is clearly not easy! “, immediately retorts the shooterwhich only runs on 10 points on average this season, with 39% success in shots.
Then, of course, he continues by evoking his teammate, James Harden, who finished with a double-double (24 points and 11 assists), but by being clumsy (6/20…). “” We are in 'back-to-back'. Seeing a veteran like James prepare for the match, land at 2 am, probably falls asleep around 4 or 5 hours, and continue to prepare for today, it's a huge motivation for me and all the others “, He describes.
James Harden on his back
The 32 -year -old continues: ” It shows the example and we follow it. He is an incredible competitor, he brings out the best at home. I still learn how to place myself, to play with him but we are on the right track. This is undoubtedly there all the stake of his arrival at the Clippers, adapt to the local stars that are Kawhi Leonard and the Barbu, to also find his spaces and “Ticket Shoots”.
“” Bogi begins to understand what we want, he feels more comfortable. Kawhi and James trust him to organize the game “, recently reported Nicolas Batumby projecting himself on the return of Norman Powell, which should push the newcomer to adapt again.
Tyronn Lue said he was impressed by the ability of Bogdan Bogdanovic to “ Manage Pick-And-Roll and play the game “And admitted that he considered him before” Like a shooter, a guy who can wear the ball a little. I didn't think he could be so good in Pick-And-Roll situations. »»
Situations that he managed well last night, with Ivica Zubac in particular. But we will retain his beautiful evening more at the “scoring”, greeted by James Harden. “” We needed it. I was on his back. He had to be aggressive. It is so good, especially offensively, that if it is reluctant, if it does not pull in the basket or if it is not aggressive, it harms our team », Note the leader. The message was heard yesterday.
