Klay s words hurt Morant, the No. 1 pick has no excuse! Morant was ridiculed, Kidd admitted his mistake

On November 23, the Mavericks played against the Grizzlies at home. At the end of the game, the Mavericks lost to the Grizzlies 96-102. The Mavericks have suffered injuries again this season, and the Mavericks' record is poor, so the Mavericks are also in chaos this season. However, the Grizzlies are also in a bad situation this season, especially after the conflict between Morant and the head coach was made public, the Grizzlies also suffered a losing streak. Now it is really hard to say who can win when the two teams meet. In this game, the two teams played in a stalemate. Although the Grizzlies tried to open up the score, the Mavericks clung to the score thanks to the performance of Clay and others. Unfortunately, the Mavericks' offense failed to continue at the critical moment, and in the end the Mavericks had no choice but to lose.

After this game, Clay had a quarrel with Morant, who was on a truce for this game. Thompson said about Morant in an interview with reporter Noah Weber: There is no in-depth insight. He is just talking nonsense, and he has always been like this. It is quite funny to sit on the bench and talk nonsense. That's pretty much what his career has been like so far, he's always letting other things distract him, and when you're a star, there's a huge responsibility that comes with it, and I don't want to see his talent go to waste. It can be said that Klay's words are heartbreaking for Morant. After all, Morant has attracted much attention in the past few seasons. Many people believed that Morant would become a star. However, in subsequent seasons, Morant was either affected by off-court factors or suffered injuries. Now Morant's reputation is also declining, so instead of mocking Clay, Morant should care about himself.

As for the No. 1 pick Flagg, there really is no excuse here. After all, Flagg played really badly in this game. At the critical moment, Flagg rushed to the inside to attack frequently, which was very harmful to the Mavericks. There were also some problems with Flagg's subsequent passes, but Flagg committed these When he makes a mistake, Flagg really has no excuse. After all, from now on, the Mavericks will build a team around Flagg, so Flagg must take on more responsibilities. But from now on, Flagg is still far away from this matter, so Flagg must also learn to solve such things in the next games.

At the end of the game, Clay had a quarrel with Ja Morant, who was out of action for the game. After the game, according to the video posted by BrickCenter, Morant said to Clay: You are a waste now. In this regard, Mavericks reporter Landon Thomas updated the news and wrote: Morant called the 35-year-old Klay Thompson a waste, but the 26-year-old Morant, who is in his prime, shot only 35.9% from the field and only 16.7% from the three-point field. It can be seen that Morant was also directly ridiculed. You must know that Morant is now at his peak, and Clay is already very old. At the same time, Clay has also suffered serious injuries, otherwise Clay's ability would never be where he is now. Therefore, Morant also received a lot of criticism for mocking Clay like this.

In the post-game interview, Mavericks head coach Kidd said when talking about the team's arrangements for the last offensive round: As a coach, I bear full responsibility for this. We have to do better and I have to devise more effective tactics. At the same time, Kidd mentioned that Klay Thompson's shot was exactly the shot the team hoped to get at the time. It can be seen that Kidd also took the initiative to admit his mistakes. Clay's shot at the last moment of the fourth quarter was obviously too hasty, and the Mavericks had enough time to attack at that time, but the Mavericks failed to complete the offense steadily. Therefore, if the Mavericks really want to get out of the quagmire in the next game, Kidd must solve this problem, otherwise the Mavericks will continue to make such mistakes in the following games.
