As if there weren’t enough performances to handle, Robert Covington came to add his name to our press review. And for Robert Covington to add his name to our press review, it’s either that he bought a franchise, or that he signed in Jeep Elite, or that he broke a record.
The pretty homemade boxscore is HERE!
Yesterday again, I was 20 years old Kevin Durant bent the knee to the Bucks. Last night, Robert Covington took off suede pants. As you will have understood, the end of the regular season does not adhere to any specific logic. Before looking at Robert’s performance 87000 In more detail, several factors need to be clarified. Primo, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez were rested. So there were no basketball players left in Wisconsin. Same topo for Nicolas Batum, Reggie Jackson, Marcus Morris and Paul George. So there were no basketball players left in Los Angeles. That the cast of the evening – namely Jevon Carter versus Xavier Moon – debunks Robert Covington’s performance is one thing. But the accomplishment remains lunar: 43 points (career high), 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 interceptions and 3 blocks at 63% shooting including… 11/18 from the parking lot. The Californian winger thus became the first player in franchise history to score as many 3-pointers in a single game. For many, breaking a Clippers record is a fictional completion. As if one were opening an empty book to write Marc Levy in it. Except that Robert Covington fueled a team performance of 153 points, again this is a franchise record. Tap a franchise record to help hit a second? It’s getting serious.
Robert Covington dribbled just NINE times on his 15 makes en route to his 43 points:
1. C&S 3PT
2. 1 dribble, banker
3. 3 drib, 3PT
4. Cut, dunk
5. C&S 3PT
6. C&S 3PT
7. C&S 3PT
8. C&S 3PT
9. C&S 3PT
10. 4 drib, 3PT
11. C&S 3PT
12. 1 drib, 3PT
13. C&S 3PT
14. Cut, dunk

And in addition this little troublemaker only dribbled nine times on his fifteen baskets, what arrogance. He is not at all the guy we would have seen in this role. Robert is a good shooter eh – 36% from 3-point career – but from there to shake Klay Thompson? Absolutely not. His profile is not that of a serial shooter. Well, anyone can show up at a game and instantly find themselves in what we call ” The area “. This fictitious place from which all the shots hit. And there the numbers go up on their own. Here, in the slammed stat genre by the way, we still found a guy on twitter who wanted to make sensational. A Clippers-accredited reporter and podcast host « CLIP & ROLL ». His find? Robert Covington would be the first player in history to plant 10 award-winning shots, take 8 rebounds and drop 3 blocks in the same game. This reflects two things. First, that no big defender had managed the feat of combining precision and brutality. But also that the Amerloques have secret software that allows them to know if a player has already dropped 10 3-point shots, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks in a single game. We want a link, something.
Way to stay together! ???? pic.twitter.com/e6LWwJxgzh
