The Cruelty of the NBA

Chapter 310: Ghost hand

In the past round, the Hornets not only did not score, but the Blazers hit a counterattack. After returning from the suspension, they suddenly lost five points.

Faced with this situation, the Hornets head coach quickly called a timeout. Now that the Blazers have led by 8 points, the Blazers are likely to take away the game with this momentum.

"Xue, it's a good job. You just defended Chris's ball. It's really beautiful. Do you only know that I saw Chris off the court and froze. No one thought you could block Chris and get the ball. "" Fernandes on the bench patted Xue Ding's shoulder and couldn't help complimenting.

...

"The rhythm of the game was just too fast. Now let's watch Xue Ding's cover through replay." Yang Rui stared at the replay screen in CCTV's studio and said.

"Yes, you see this ball, Xue Dingming has been thrown away by Paul. It stands to reason that this kind of ball is a must goal for Paul, but I didn't expect it. Look, this ball is still in the air. Xue Ding had already jumped up during mid-course, and his arm length was so long that he could reach the ball as soon as he reached his hand." Guidance Zhang looked at the playback screen and couldn't help admiring while analyzing.

"Xue Ding's ball really shows his talent. If you change a defender, it is likely that the ball will make Paul pass it, but Xue Ding has chosen to chase back the block, which is really good. ."

"Yes, it is precisely because Xue Ding will fight every ball, and he will not give up easily, so he will carry the injured soldiers full of pioneers all the way to the present. I believe that if we hone it again, Xue Ding will have great success in the future. Guidance Zhang said.

At this time, the CCTV broadcast screen changed from Xue Ding's ball to Xue Ding's personal highlights.

...

"Chris, calm down, we have to play calmer. Now that the first quarter is not over, we still have a chance." The Hornets head coach saw at a glance that Paul was eager to take the lead in the opening stage. .

But it is clear that the effect is not very good. At this time, Paul had to stabilize it first. Don't worry.

After the suspension came back, the Hornets made adjustments quickly, and Paul was no longer eager to equalize the game, but began to organize the team's offense in an orderly manner, trying to make the team reach a best state.

In the first quarter, when the main players on both sides were on the field, in addition to the Blazers getting a certain lead in the opening stage, after the Hornets adjusted, the two sides played back and forth, and the score difference did not further open.

With more than a minute left in the first quarter, in order to ensure the health of the main players and avoid injury problems, Pritchard directly replaced all the main players of the team.

But during the period when the Blazers' main player was replaced, Paul seized the opportunity to lead the Hornets to a 6-0 wave of the Blazers, chasing the score to 27-25.

The poor performance of the bench player made the head coach extremely dissatisfied, but now he has no other way. As the saying goes, the clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, and then I am afraid that even the bench will not have enough five people.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Blazers still mostly rested off the court, and only sent Batum to lead the bench against the Hornets.

On the Hornets side, Westcollison played with the bench.

In the past three minutes in the second quarter, Collison and West both scored eight points for the Hornets, and the Blazers only Batum hit a three-pointer at the opening. Tribo scored four points on one of two free throws.

When Xue Ding waited for the main force to return to the field, the score had reached 31 to 33, and the Blazers trailed by two points.

Seeing that the Blazers took the main force, the Hornets coach also quickly replaced Paul and other main players on the court.

Before coming to the court, the Hornets head coach said to Paul: "Chris, we are now leading, keeping this pace."

Paul nodded at the head coach.

Paul, who returned to the field, did indeed follow the instructions given by the head coach. Instead of rushing to attack, he was looking for the best offensive opportunity at a reduced pace.

For most of the second quarter, the two sides played their respective offensive and defensive exercises in the other half. The two teams suddenly played a positional battle, and the scoring efficiency was not very high.

With 1 minute and 18 seconds left in the second quarter, the score of the two sides was 47 to 48, and the game seemed very stale.

The Hornets' ball rights, Paul held the ball to the frontcourt, Stojkovic came naturally to cover the pick-and-roll for Paul, Paul used the cover to go directly to the right to bypass Chandler's defense.

Then a small step broke into the penalty area, facing Blake's defense, directly hit a small, mid-range back jumper shot, hit!

47 to 50

Blake quickly served the bottom line and gave Roy. Roy took the ball through the half and faced Collison. The two first fought around the center line.

Roy pushed the ball beyond the three-point line alone, Chandler came over to cover, Roy wanted to take a shot through the cover, but West suddenly knocked the ball from the right!

West quickly got the ball and drove down, and Paul, who had been watching the situation on the court, also quickly hurried down.

At this time, only Xue Ding quickly came back in the Blazers halftime, the Hornets formed a one-on-two situation for a while.

Facing two offensive players, Lu Yi has maintained his defensive focus towards Paul.

At this time, the ball is in Collison's hands.

Faced with this situation, Xue Ding was well aware of Paul's tactical position in the Hornets, so as long as there is a suitable opportunity, Collison will definitely pass the ball to Paul.

Xue Ding's defensive focus has always been towards Paul~lightnovelpub.net~ but his eyes have been fixed on Collison, and he tried to take the ball from Collison's hand.

In the first two trials, Collison didn't shoot the ball, and the two advanced quickly, and quickly advanced to the free throw line.

At this time, Xue Ding once again extended his hand to Collison.

Collison also noticed this. Xue Ding failed to take the ball out of his hands the first two times. This time Xue Ding came again. Collison naturally knew that Xue Ding, who had retreated, was paying attention to him at this time. Body.

Then the ball was cleverly put to Paul, Paul was ready to shoot directly after receiving the ball!

However, Xue Ding's hand did not really go to Collison, but to Paul!

When Paul received the ball and prepared for a layup, Xue Ding's palm also covered the ball.

Paul didn't even have time to make a shot, Xue Ding directly grabbed the ball from Paul.

Seeing this scene, the audience was shocked!
