The Cruelty of the NBA

Netizens brushed on the comments for a while, and began to ask Xiao Xiong if they could send out the three-point picture that Xue Ding had just projected for everyone to take a look at.

For the student party and office workers who can only watch the live text, any picture of the game scene, plus the description of the live text, can bring their thoughts to the game.

And Xiong Xiong lived up to expectations. He intercepted several pictures of Xue Ding's last three points and blocked Paul's two goals in the live room.

In those days when there was no picture, after the pictures of the bear were sent out, some netizens clicked and downloaded them on their mobile phones, and some people even set the pictures of Xue Ding's shot as their mobile phone screensaver.

Facing Xue Ding's wonderful performance in the first half, many netizens always felt that the fifteen-minute time was too slow while waiting in the midfield, and they kept brushing the second half of the live room to start.

It seems as if every second of waiting is suffering.

Finally, after a fifteen-minute half-time break, the second half of the game finally began.

In the first half of the third quarter, the two sides were still the main lineup on the field. Although Xue Ding had an excellent personal performance in the first half, he failed to pull the score away, but only led by three points in the half.

After the start of the third quarter, the Hornets suddenly felt like they were playing chicken blood, strengthening their defensive strength, and trying to grab the offensive rebound on the offensive end.

Stojkovic grabbed the rebounds from the Blazers' three defensive teammates and grabbed a dunk.

Therefore, in the third quarter, both sides played very well, and the pace of the game was also very slow. At the end of the third quarter, the two sides scored 76 to 75.

For the Hornets, this game they have no retreat, they must win, otherwise they will completely lose the qualification for the playoffs.

After a two-minute break, the fourth quarter began.

As usual, the beginning of the fourth quarter is still played by the substitutes for a period of time on the court to win some rest time for the main force.

Therefore, the Blazers did not let Xue Ding play at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

On the Hornets side, the fourth quarter started with the full main lineup, and their main lineup was played with the Blazers in the third quarter for about ten minutes before they were replaced.

This means that as long as the game is not suddenly played by the Blazers, the Hornets' main players will play more than 21 minutes in the second half.

Paul is very likely to seize the opportunity, while the Blazers are on the bench, Paul led the Hornets to directly overtake the score to 86 to 79.

The opening quarter of the fourth quarter was just two minutes, and the Blazers were beaten 9-9 by the Hornets.

But in this case, Pritchard did not call a timeout, nor did he mean to replace the main player.

Seeing that the difference was getting bigger and bigger, Xue Ding finally couldn't help but took the initiative to walk in front of Pritchard and demanded that he be replaced.

However, with a smile on his face, Pritchard patted Xue Ding's shoulder and said, "Xue, it's not yet time. You sit down and rest for a while, and it will naturally call you when you come to play."

Looking at Pritchard's unhurried attitude, Xue Ding did not understand why Pritchard did so.

Had to retreat to the bench.

With 8 minutes and 33 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Pritchard finally called the first timeout.

At this point, the Blazers trailed the Hornets 83 points to 91 points and 8 points.

During the timeout, Pritchard simply arranged some tactics for Xue Ding and others, and then replaced the main players except Roy.

Xue Ding returned to the field after the first attack, facing West's defense, easily picked two points and scored.

The players on the Hornets feel surprisingly better than in the first half. In retrospect, Paul played a 2+1 under Blake's defense!

To this end, Paul specifically shouted at Xue Ding: "Rookie, you are still too tender."

After Paul finished, he proudly walked to the free throw line and made a free throw.

The next time, when the Blazers fought back, Xue Ding, as the team's main force, in addition to scoring himself, also had to drive his teammates to score.

However, most of the game passed, the Blazers failed to recover the points difference, every time the Blazers counterattack score, the Hornets can quickly respond.

During this period, Xue Ding made 6 of 8 shots, 2 of 3 3-pointers, and scored 15 points.

Even so, the Blazers are still 101 points behind the Hornets 7 points.

There are two and a half minutes left in the game.

The Hornets called for a tactical timeout. Now for them, the victory is almost at hand. As long as the final two and a half offensive attacks are not sloppy and there are not too many mistakes, this game can definitely be won.

Therefore, there is only one tactic that the Hornets’ head coach lays out during the timeout. That is to be stable. Try to use up 24 seconds as much as possible. While consuming the time, be sure to stabilize yourself and win every goal. Can score, even if you can't score, you must try your best to grab the rebound.

On the Blazers side, Pritchard has only one requirement for his players, that is, don't get injured. It seems that the win or loss of this game is not so important in his eyes.

After a timeout, the Hornets players started to attack.

Paul and Collison took turns to control time and rhythm near the center line.

The Blazers also did not choose oppressive defense, because now the game still, once the oppressive defense is likely to cause fouls~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Now the team's foul count is already full, as long as a foul, It was the Hornets players who made free throws.

Paul pressed the time to the last 6 seconds before he started the attack. He walked directly to the left and disregarded Blake in a disguised way, bursting into the paint area and throwing a small hook.

"Hey, Paul's little hook is really good." Zhang also couldn't help but praise Paul's little hook.

"Yeah, but after scoring this goal, the Hornets have led by 9 points. Although the Blazers have no problem in the playoffs, but the seats in the playoffs have not yet been finalized, I think the Blazers are definitely not willing to I met Kobe's Lakers, so they had to fight to win this game." Yang Rui said.

"So let's see if Xue Ding can perform well on the defensive end like the first half. As long as he can prevent the Hornets' two or three offenses and score again, then the final victory of this game is really true. It's not easy to say." Guidance Zhang said.

Blake served the bottom line, Xue Ding took the ball to the frontcourt, ready to start his performance.
