The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 257 The Last Moment

The main players of both sides had already played the entire third quarter, but now the score is very tight. In the last 3 minutes, no one dared to make substitutions easily.

Xue Ding attacked with the ball, but the 76ers still chose the 3-2 zone defense mode to focus on defending the perimeter.

For the Blazers, at such a time, Xue Ding is the only one who can attack with the ball in an all-round way. Ade is more of a fixed-point shooter. Chandler doesn't have the ability to hold the ball at all. Fernandez and Batum are more Suitable for scoring in sports battles.

So the 76ers boldly double-teamed Xue Dingjing.

Xue Ding is very clear that if he starts to pass the ball in a hurry, the double-team will pass immediately. He still has the ability to deal with double-teams. Once other teammates face double-teams, they will either pass the ball hastily or make a hasty shot. , at such a critical time, there is no room for loss.

Xue Ding made a tactical gesture, and Adelaide immediately raised the three-point line to perform a pick-and-roll. With the help of Adelaide's tall body, Xue Ding easily passed through the defense and rushed to the inside. Iguodala followed closely behind. , ready to chase the hat.

As long as he runs, he will never slow down. This is Xue Ding's biggest characteristic, and it has become a distinctive characteristic in the league.

So much so that there is such a rumor about Xue Ding's defense now, that is, Xue Ding rushed up, and he must make up the defense. If he didn't make up the defense, it would be 100% advanced, but if the defense passed, [-]% There is still a chance to bet on Xue Ding passing the ball, and then there is a [-]% chance to bet on his teammates.

Obviously, Brand is a loyal implementer of this iron law. Throughout the game, facing Xue Ding's breakthrough, he never hesitated. Relay, also at all costs.

The ball was still like this, Xue Ding rushed in, Brand immediately defended, Xue Ding jumped up, passed the ball, and Fernandez, who had been ambushing for a long time in the low corner on the right, caught the ball and hit an open three-pointer.

The score was 78; 78, with 2 minutes and 35 seconds left, the two sides tied and continued to return to the same starting line.

The 76ers attacked. After halftime, Iguodala was directly handed over to Iguodala. As the core of the team, Iguodala is not mainly focused on scoring. La is recognized by his teammates and the head coach through defense, as well as his organizational skills.

At this critical moment, the ball was handed over to him in the hope of exerting its organizational ability, because William Moss would lose his mind at a critical moment, which has become a joke for the 76ers.

It's just that William Moss is extremely fast, but sometimes he is so fast that he doesn't know what he is going to do. This is actually a mockery of William Moss' poor overall view.

Iguodala dribbled the ball, and Smith stepped forward to pick and roll. After the smooth pick and roll, Iguodala quickly broke through, and Alder had to defend the first time. Smith received the ball from outside the three-point line and raised his hand to hit a three-pointer.

With 2 minutes and 15 seconds left, the 76ers once again took a 3-point lead.

With a height of 213 and a tough style of play, although his body is thin and his defensive strength is not very good, he has a good mid-range shot. At critical times, Smith played an important role.

Xue Ding made tactical gestures while dribbling the ball, asking his teammates to pull away a little and keep running.

Fernandez and Batum crossed positions and brought the defenders to the bottom corners on both sides. Alder mentioned the 45° fixed point of the free throw line, and Chandler guarded the inside.

Just now Xue Ding assisted Fernandez with a three-pointer through a breakthrough pass, so now Xue Ding has set up a situation where he wants to go it alone, but the 76ers did not double-team.

Seeing Green who was one step away, Xue Ding jumped up, took two steps outside the three-point line, jumped up straight, pushed the shot in the air, and made a simple and crisp hit with a swish.

The score was 81:81, the time was 1 minute and 51 seconds, and the two teams tied again.

Xue Ding began to feel a little anxious, and still lacked four assists, but with the current score behind, the only person who could stand up and chase points was himself.

Facing the double-teaming of the 76ers as usual, Xue Ding rushed over at an accelerated speed. Smith, who had been prepared for a long time, moved sideways to make up for the defense. Xue Ding turned his back and dribbled. Batum, who stood at a 45° side, passed the ball immediately.

Batum caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

Xue Ding excitedly gave Batum a high-five to celebrate. Batum was very happy with his goal, and Xue Ding was even more happy that this pass turned into an assist.

There are still three assists, but the time is only 1 minute and 38 seconds, Xue Ding feels a little hanging.

Three points behind, the 76ers played more carefully. Iguodala held the ball at the top of the arc, and Williams and Green kept running around Iguodala.

Iguodala changed direction in front of him, then accelerated and directly broke through Batum's defense, and then stopped the car in one step. William Moss came up from behind, caught the ball immediately, and raised his hand to hit two points.

Time passed slowly, and both sides were attacking safely. At this time, being safe became the safest guarantee.

Xue Ding held the ball and came out of the three-point line in the direction of 45° to the right. Green's top was very tight, and he did not give enough room for shooting.

Xue Ding continued to use tactics to clean up, Chandler continued to guard the inside line, Batum and Fernandez continued to cross positions, and when they bypassed Adelaide, Adelaide directly blocked the two people who were pursuing him with a pick-and-roll, forming a two-way battle in an instant. slots.

Fernandez quickly ran to his favorite corner, and Batum came directly to the top of the arc on the left side of the front.

Xue Ding quickly passed the ball to Batum, and Batum made a fake move and directly clicked on Iguodala.

Willie Green quickly made up the defense, and Batum quickly hit the ball to Fernandez who was standing in the bottom corner, and passed it directly.

Fernandez caught the ball and made an open shot. As a result, the score showed two points. The Blazers were very dissatisfied, but through the on-duty referee, it was found that this was indeed the case, and the score came to a 3-point lead.

The 76ers attacked, and the ball took turns in several positions. Finally, Iguodala, who received the ball, made a three-pointer directly on the spot.

The ball was hit steadily and the two sides tied again.

In the next two rounds, the two sides will come and go, and the score will still rise alternately.

Iguodala hit another low-corner 76 to give the 26ers another big lead with [-] seconds left and another shot.

Xue Ding took the ball and dribbled it slowly. Now that the 76ers are leading by three points, they must score three points to have a chance to enter overtime. Otherwise, it would be meaningless to score two points.

The 76ers are also very aware of this, so they directly strengthened the defense of the outside line. Everyone just followed their defenders and did not allow easy three-pointers.
