Pause back, the game continues.

This time Carlisle chose to let Nowitzki take a break in advance and replaced Drew Gooden.

Obviously Nowitzki scored eight points, but under the confrontation with Uncle Huo, his physical energy consumption was too great.

Carlisle wanted to give Nowitzki a break while still leading.

"The good game continues, alas! When this time back, Carlisle actually took Nowitzki down!" TNT commentator Dell Curry said, looking at the Mavericks players on the court with some confusion.

"I think Carlisle should want to give him more rest time. Although he scored 8 points in the past 5 minutes, it can actually be seen that Howard's caused him a lot of trouble and physical energy consumption !" Michael Joe said.

Xue Ding holds the ball in the frontcourt.

Facing Kidd's defense, he suddenly accelerated into the basket and Haywood could not come up to help Kidd help defense.

"Assisting Master (lv2)"

Xue Ding Yuguang saw Batum coming in from the right and cut the ball through the ground.

Batum scored with a layup.

"Good shot, this ball is beautiful given by Xue Ding!"

"It's really good with the match, and the timely pass is just right. Next, let's see if the Blazers can seize the time when Nowitzki is not on the court to catch up the score!" Zhang said. .

"Return to defense, hurry back to defense!"

Pritchard reminded loudly on the sidelines of Butler who was sneaking down.

In the middle of speaking, Kidd received the bottom line and sent a long pass directly to Butler, who quickly rushed to catch up.

Butler flicked a shot, shouted Roy, shook it, cleverly made a time difference, and put the ball firmly into the basket.

"This ball is really too bad, and the withdrawal is too slow!" Dell Curry said.

"Hey, this ball shouldn't be right anymore. After the goal, he was directly hit by a counterattack! The Blazers' alertness is a bit too low!" Yang Rui said.

"Such a ball should be too bad, giving the opponent such a chance to score easily has a great impact on morale. If the Blazers have such an attitude today, then their game is very dangerous!" Zhang Guidao said worriedly .

"What are you all doing, walking on the field? This is the playoffs!"

Feeling very dissatisfied with the withdrawal, Pritchard roared angrily at the players on the sidelines, venting his dissatisfaction.

Chandler gave the ball to Xue Ding on the bottom line.

Xue Ding advanced the ball fast, Roy took the cover to catch the ball, Xue Ding gave the ball out, and Xue Ding made a screen for Roy nonstop.

"Uh!"

"Brandon! Three points! Hit!!!" The scene DJ shouted passionately with a long tone. As the ball passed through the net, fans at the scene burst into cheers.

Roy shot directly outside the three-point line, and the basketball crossed a wonderful arc in the air, hollow into the net.

"Beautiful, Brandon hit the Blazers' first three-pointer in the game!" Dale Curry said.

"Nice!"

"Roy's shot was very decisive. If I remember correctly, this ball should be the first three-pointer of the Blazers in this game!" Yang Rui said after looking down at the statistics.

"Yes, this ball should be the first three-pointer the Blazers hit today. What the Blazers need now is to be able to make a shot from the perimeter, so that the Mavericks can be forced to expand their defense, so that they can open up the space! "Director Zhang analyzed."

But it is a pity that Roy's three-pointer did not allow their feel to continue.

Batum missed three consecutive open three-pointers in the bottom corner of the left and right sides, and Roy also missed once on the top of the arc.

Fortunately, Nowitzki was not on the court, and the Blazers' defense did not give the Mavericks too many easy scoring opportunities.

End of the first quarter, 28 to 24!

The Mavericks temporarily lead by 4 points.

"Unfortunately, the Blazers didn't catch Nowitzki's break time to catch up the score. The Blazers were still 4 points behind at the end of the first quarter, and Nowitzki got a 6-minute break in the first quarter. It's not good news for the Blazers!" Zhang Guidao said.

"Yes, Dirk Nowitzki's absence was an opportunity for the Trail Blazers to chase points, but they failed to seize this opportunity, and the outside line was too slow to vote!" Yang Rui echoed.

"We will take a short break at the end of the first quarter. Let's look at the contest between the two sides in the second quarter!"

...

"Welcome back, the two sides have started the second quarter. The Mavericks temporarily led the Trailblazers by four points in the first quarter. See if the Trailblazers can't catch up with the second energy saving, or can the Mavericks continue to expand their lead. !" Yang Rui read the oral broadcast skillfully.

In the second quarter, both sides sent out a rotation lineup. The Trail Blazers had the former assist Wang Andre Miller on the bench.

And for the sake of insurance, Pritchard still left Batum on the court.

The Mavericks put the chaos master Jose Barria into the first position, replaced the best sixth man Jason Terry, and left Butler on the field.

Obviously, although the Mavericks lead, Carlisle is still very cautious.

In the second quarter, Butler and Jason Terry successively hit a shot. At the same time, Barea also used his speed to rush to the basket and throw a shot.

The Trail Blazers played against the Mavericks under Miller's organization.

The two sides bit the score tightly.

The Blazers attacked and Miller commanded his teammates to run.

Oden suddenly mentioned to block Barria, Miller rushed into the basket with the ball ~lightnovelpub.net~ After attracting the binder, he found Batum who slipped to the left corner and divided the ball.

Batum adjusted the ball and threw it steadily out of the three-point line.

The ball traversed a wonderful arc in the air, and a hollow sound came into the net!

"Good shot, Nicholas!"

The moment the ball hit the net, Xue Ding, who was sitting on the bench, jumped up on the first red bench and applauded Batum on the sidelines.

"Oh, finally, Nicholas finally hit his first three-pointer of the game. The Blazers need his three-pointer too!" Dell Curry said with emotion.

"As long as he can make a three-pointer, the Blazers will play a lot better!" Michael Joe said.

34 to 32!

With the three-point hit by Batum, the Blazers also chased the difference to only two points.
