NBA: I can see real-time shooting percentage

Chapter 117

“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

"Qin Ming's dunk is really explosive! He and Westbrook are crazy about killing each other now. Both of them are playing under tremendous pressure! The performance of the two of them is really phenomenal!"

"Before the game, in fact, many people were not optimistic about Qin Ming's match against Westbrook. They felt that his body was too weak to match Westbrook. But, my friends, this is the NBA. There is no absolute weakness, no absolute strength, only the understanding of basketball."

"Yeah, oops, let's see what happens next."

After Qin Ming's dunk this time, he finally helped the Clippers regain their home court advantage.

Fans stood up one after another and cheered toward the center of the arena, shouting for Qin Ming who made a wonderful performance tonight.

And what about the Rockets?
There are not many people who can attack, and the main offensive point of their lineup is Westbrook. D'Antoni dared to use Westbrook to lead the bench lineup at this time, and he also maintained full trust in Westbrook tonight.

Tonight, Westbrook is dreaming back to his peak, his shooting level and breakthrough efficiency are all at his peak.Before that, he didn't play very well in the Rockets, and was looked down upon by many people.

Westbrook once again held the ball from the outside, and after using the pick-and-roll, he actually made a direct three-pointer.

This three-pointer is also scored.

Immediately afterwards, in the next 3 minutes, Qin Ming and Westbrook all played against each other.

Qin Ming's ghostly breakthrough and scoring caused a lot of trouble for the Rockets' bench team. They didn't have a top forward defender like Covington, and they were also conservative in offense, so they didn't play very well.

If it weren't for Westbrook's magical soldiers descending from the sky and dreaming of returning to the top, then the advantage that the Rockets managed to win in the first quarter tonight would be gone.

When Qin Ming continued to break through and divide the ball, Westbrook resisted the offense and defense of the entire Clippers with his own strength.

On the offensive end, Westbrook made his own passing moves, but found that the bench players didn't feel very good tonight, so he carried the offense alone, just like last year, he carried the entire flameout Thunder team, constantly single-playing Jazz players.

He scored more than 40 points, but still couldn't lead the team to victory, and once again stopped in the first round.

He didn't want it to happen again, so he had to take out all the gas in his tank.

Wei Shao faced Qin Ming again, his shoulders sank after taking a step forward, and at this moment he forced Qin Ming back, and he directly pulled out his hand.

He likes to shoot in this way. The emergency stop jump shot is easy for him, and his breakthrough threat is too great, so the defender basically takes this trick.

Westbrook hit the board again.

"Westbrook, he was invincible in the second quarter!"

"Yes, in the 4 minutes of the second quarter, he took eight shots, hit six goals, and scored 15 points in the second quarter. This performance is too exaggerated! This is the Western Conference semifinals!"

"Westbrook, this man, once again showed his MVP-level performance!"

As for Qin Ming, he found his rhythm in the second quarter.

Compared with Xuezang in the first quarter, Qin Ming, who was full of anger, started to break through at an extremely high speed as soon as he came up. Even if Westbrook came, he couldn't catch up.

After that, the Rockets found that they couldn't blindly let Qin Ming go in and score. It was too simple for them to attack once, so House came up to help defend.

As soon as he assisted in the defense, Qin Ming passed the ball, and Mann was also very competitive, scoring two consecutive three-pointers with a 30.00% seven-point shooting percentage.

In this way, the Rockets' first timeout in the second quarter came.

At this time, they were still leading by five points, but the Clippers team led by Qin Ming had a three-point climax, and the atmosphere gradually filled the scene, and after Westbrook failed to score twice in a row, D'Antoni knew that he should start.

At this time, the Clippers players were high-fiving each other, and their morale finally rose.

The Rockets kept hitting their heads in the first quarter. The opponent's impact and three-point frenzy were really terrifying, and only the Clippers could withstand it.

Otherwise, they would have to be behind by at least fifteen points or more in the first quarter.

Such a point difference is not easy to chase, and this is still a very intense playoffs.

After returning from the timeout, Qin Ming sat on the bench to rest.

Rivers has his own considerations.

Qin Ming also had a good time playing, and sat on the bench to rest without any complaints.

So the Clippers lineup is Lu Wei, Paul George, Leonard, Morris, Batum.

The reason for taking Batum this time is on the one hand the rotation, and on the other hand it is because after Qin Ming goes down, Batum can play the role of passing the ball, so that the Clippers will not be stuck in a singles situation.

Although after Qin Ming came, they still played more singles, but this improved their singles efficiency, and many times they chose singles by themselves.

The height of this lineup is sufficient, the rebounds are also guaranteed, and the conduction of the ball will not be bad.

When facing the Rockets' starter, Rivers didn't feel right.

At this time, James Harden, with a big beard, watched Batum come up, his eyes seemed to be a tiger that had seen its prey.

Sure enough, in the next round, Harden faced Batum and scored a three-pointer with double step-backs.

After that, Harden's rhythm changed after dribbling the ball under his crotch, passing Batum in one step, and then scored with a left-handed layup.

These two consecutive attacks made Rivers a little dissatisfied.

Because he explained that if Batum goes to defend James Harden, then they will shrink the formation and force Harden to pass the ball.

Because Westbrook is still on the court at this time, even if he is very accurate with three-pointers today, it is still a point to gamble on.

Harden cannot be made to shoot comfortably, nor can he be comfortable to break through. The best way to kill this Rockets team is to let them continue to shoot outside three-pointers.

That way they don't grab offensive rebounds, and their [-]-point shooting hasn't been great this season.

Batum didn't execute very well.

Immediately afterwards, Harden handed the ball to Westbrook again. Westbrook faced his old teammate Paul George, rushed in again, and then passed it to McClemore who was open on the outside.

McLemore has played the best performance of his career with the Rockets this season. He averaged 12.5 points per game this season and made 30.00% of his three-pointers. He is one of the most accurate shooters of the Rockets.

James Harden didn't even look at his baseline three-pointer, and directly raised his three fingers.

Three points hit again.

The Clippers are suspended.
