The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 269 Griffin's Performance
Time is running out. Although Davis does not know the exact seconds with his back to the basket, it is obvious that as an experienced old man, he has realized that there is not much time left, so he is forced to come up one step at a time.

Xue Ding was also waiting for this moment in his heart. As soon as Davis started to change his center of gravity, Xue Ding immediately made a quick and early change of direction and pulled horizontally.

Davis, who was half a beat behind, rushed over with all his strength, and directly bumped into Xue Ding who was still in the air.

Xue Ding rolled over on the ground, protecting his body, "beep beep", the referee's whistle sounded quickly, and at the same time he raised a finger.

Foul shooting, three free throws.

Chandler quickly stepped forward to pull Xue Ding up, and the two happily clapped hands in celebration.

Xue Ding walked to the free throw line, and the home fans uttered sharp whistles to interfere. The fans behind the basket were more professional, and they kept waving their cheering sticks, trying to cause interference.

However, these had no effect on Xue Ding. After Xue Ding took a deep breath, he received the referee's ball and made a steady free throw.

With 10 minutes and 55 seconds left, the score was 5:0.

The Clippers attacked, and Davis received the serve and came directly towards Xue Ding. It was completely a posture that I would never give up if I failed to hit you.

Xue Ding knew very well in his heart that people who are too competitive are like this, just like a bull who saw the red cloth.

Still keep a one-step distance, you will cover me when you throw, and you will have a sufficient buffer distance when you shoot, keep following.

Davis kept changing directions and dribbling in advance, adjusting the rhythm, and at the same time looking for a breakthrough.

Xue Ding kept his focus and followed, but defense is passive after all, and for a star, it is impossible to be completely defended to death.

Davis made a continuous change of direction in front of him, and made a fake move to the right. Xue Ding shot out the ball. Davis made a quick ultra-low dribble and broke through from the left.

Originally, the two were fighting, and the other teammates stretched the space wide, and it was too late to make up the defense. Davis rushed in and dunked his hands in a no-man's land.

After landing, he patted his chest in excitement, expressing the long-suffering energy in his heart.

The home fans shouted Davis' name loudly, mixed with whistles.

Davis kept raising his hands, mobilizing the atmosphere in the frontcourt.

Xue Ding felt these things calmly, and he knew very well that he didn't steal the ball just now for no purpose, but knew Davis' dribbling intention and wanted to intercept his dribble. However, Davis, who is 191 tall, is fully Showing the advantage of being short but with a lower center of gravity, he successfully got rid of his own defense.

The Blazers attacked, Xue Ding dribbled the ball halfway, and Davis continued to push up.

Xue Ding looked at the positions of his teammates. Both Adelaide and Chandler were stuck near the three-second zone. Then they saw Davis lowering his center of gravity to prevent his breakthrough.

The ball crossed a beautiful arc in the air and flew towards the basket. Davis didn't react. He thought that Xue Ding would find a way to break through him, but he didn't expect Xue Ding to shoot directly.

With a sound of "shua", the three-pointer went into the net hollowly.

Xue Ding raised the three fingers of his right hand high, doing the routine action after hitting a three-pointer.

"My Xue's cold expression, coupled with this gesture of raising my hand, is so cool."

"Overlord Xue is still as domineering as ever."

"Looking at Davis' depressed expression, my stomach hurts from laughing. He is still waiting for Xue Ding to make a breakthrough move."

"Overlord Xue is too bad, you agreed to a bullfight, but you ended up throwing a three-pointer"

……

After the fan Xue Ding easily hit a three-pointer, he happily played the barrage to express his joy.

Davis, who is not enough to be one of the parties, is not in such a beautiful mood.

Just as Xue Ding finished his movements and was about to turn back to defend, he ran to Xue Ding's side and said two pieces of rubbish.

The voice was very small, but Xue Ding could hear it clearly.

Xue Ding also replied without hesitation, a curse, silly.

Although Davis didn't understand, he also understood that Xue Ding's words were definitely not mean.

The atmosphere between the two teams became more subtle as the emotions between their respective cores rose.

In the next few rounds, Davis continued to use his low center of gravity advantage to break through and score. Xue Ding was simpler, either directly pulling up, or after a breakthrough, he stopped and shot a jumper.

Xue Ding's strategy is very simple. You are short and have a low center of gravity, but I am tall and have a high shot. It is the easiest way to use your own advantages to attack the opponent's disadvantages.

Although both of them have their own characteristics, relatively speaking, the stability after the breakthrough is worse. Xue Ding once again took the lead with the stability of his own shooting. He made two of three three-pointers. Scoring 3 points, Davis scored 10 points in a row, including one of two free throws.

The score was 15:9, the Blazers continued to lead, the Clippers called a timeout, and the head coach Dunleavy's face had been dark for a long time on the sidelines

As an old coach, with old qualifications and a good temper, the adjustment strategy is very simple, just put Davis on the bench and replace Butler with 2.01.

The Blazers did not make any adjustments, and Pritchard was very relieved of Xue Ding.

The two sides came to the court again, and the Clippers attacked.

After Davis left the court, Gordon came to control the ball. With a height of 193, he felt no different from Davis. His body was as strong. The only difference was that he didn't have a big beard.

Gordon dribbled the ball across the half court, facing Xue Ding's defense, he sensibly didn't stick the ball, and passed the ball directly to Rathall Butler, who held the ball high and lobbed it to Griffin who was stuck in the position.

After receiving the ball, Griffin quickly turned to face the frame. A fake shot tricked Adelaide. He rushed into the inside with one step of acceleration and dunked easily.

Turning around, Xue Ding held the ball at the top of the arc, Ade mentioned the high position, Xue Ding passed the ball at the first time, Ade caught the ball and made a fadeaway mid-range shot, and returned the favor.

Xue Ding waited in place until Ade came over, and took the initiative to high-five to celebrate the tacit cooperation just now.

The Clippers saw that Griffin was not nervous at all as a rookie facing a famous veteran like Alder, so after halftime, the ball was handed directly to Griffin.

It has to be said that Griffin's physical fitness, known as the white monster, made Xue Ding speechless after seeing it. His speed, strength, and explosive power made Ade suffer one after another.

When attacking, as soon as he catches the ball, whether it is a back-up single, he directly pushes Adelaide away, and when he gets to his position, he directly jumps, either dunking or putting the ball into the basket easily. Even if Chandler comes to defend, Ge Riffin also easily dodged.

On the defensive end, Adelaide has a certain advantage in height and weight, but Griffin, who has strengthened his defense, keeps going around and top defense, which makes Adelaide tired of coping and his shooting rate is much lower.
