The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 339
"Batum finally made a shot. Now the point difference is only two points away. Next, it depends on their defense in this round. If they can defend the opponent's attack, the Blazers will have another chance to tie or even win. Overtake the score!" CCTV commentator Yang Rui said.

"Indeed, it's time to test their defense!" Director Zhang said as he looked at the Blazers players who were fully defending on the big screen.

"defence, defense"

At this time, the Rose Garden Arena also shouted for defense, and the momentum was like a rainbow. Amid the voices of the fans, all the Blazers played [-] points and followed their defenders closely.

Barea holds the ball at the top of the key.

Dampier popped up and gave Barea a screen to block Miller.

Barea quickly rushed in with the ball, Miller squeezed through the screen and chased, and Oden also helped defend.

After Dampier screened, he split and went down, and Barea gave the ball in.

"Beep!"

The moment Dampier caught the ball, Fernandez immediately made a foul.

"There is no way for this ball. Rudy can only foul. Let Dampier receive the ball in such a deep position. He has no way to prevent him. He can only choose a tactical foul!" Dell Curry said with a smile.

"After all, there is too much difference in height and strength between the two!" Michael Joe nodded and said.

At this moment, Carlisle chose to replace Butler with Nowitzki, and Nowitzki returned to the court early in the second quarter.

"Dirk is on the court!" Michael Joe said as he watched Nowitzki walk slowly onto the court.

"Although Dirk was a little early according to the previous practice at this time, after all, he got a rest time of nearly 6 minutes in the first quarter, so it's okay to play early. The intention of the Mavericks to replace Dirk is obvious. Stabilize the situation!" Dell Curry analyzed.

Jason Terry served from the sideline, and Barea slowly dribbled to the top of the arc.

Nowitzki immediately came up to cover him, and Oden immediately switched defenses with Miller.

Nowitzki backs up to Miller, creating a dislocation, and Barea passes the ball over, then slips to the baseline, pulling the defender away.

Let Nowitzki and Miller form a one-on-one.

Nowitzki took two steps, turned and leaned back and easily threw the ball over Miller's head.

"Bang!"

The basketball came out of the basket, and Camby took off the backboard to stabilize the rhythm of the court and handed the ball to Miller.

The Mavericks retreated quickly without giving the Blazers a chance to counterattack.

Miller slowly dribbled the ball across the half court. Oden came up and made a screen for Miller, and immediately went down. After Miller rushed to the basket to attract the defense, he threw the ball above the basket.

Emperor Alden soared into the sky.

"Boom!"

Miller and Oden alley-oop completed an alley-oop.

"Greg, well done!"

Xue Ding, Roy and others on the sidelines also cheered excitedly on the sidelines, and the teammates also started their exaggerated performances.

The enthusiasm of the fans at the scene was also ignited, and the cheers were thunderous.

"Wow! In the alley-oop, the Blazers tied the score. This is the first tie between the two sides in this game!" said the live commentator Dell Curry.

"The second team of the Blazers played really well under the organization of Miller. Let's see how the Mavericks do this round and see if the Blazers can continue to defend against this offense!" Michael Joe said.

Dampier serves from the bottom line, and Barea suddenly accelerates to the front court after receiving the ball.

"Barea rushed up, the Blazers obviously didn't expect Barea to suddenly accelerate!" Yang Rui said after the CCTV ended.

"Layup, score! Taking advantage of the Blazers not paying attention, Barea directly completed a one-stop counterattack layup, helping the Mavericks regain a two-point lead!"

"The Blazers were careless. Why? In fact, Carlisle brought Barea up to disrupt the situation and disrupt the battle. Although he is not tall, he is really good at chaos!" Director Zhang looked at the just completed one. Barea said the Dragon layup.

"Beep!"

As soon as Director Zhang finished speaking, Pritchard immediately called a timeout.

"Director Zhang, what adjustments do you think Pritchard will make after this suspension?" Yang Rui asked.

"I think Roy or Xue Ding should be brought up, why? Although they played well during this period, they actually didn't have a strong point in offense, so I think Roy or Xue Ding It is Xue Ding who will return to the field after the timeout!" Director Zhang analyzed.

Back on the sidelines, Pritchard still emphasized the team's defense. Obviously, he was a little dissatisfied with Barea's one-stop layup just now.

"Xue, Brandon, you two come on! Nicholas, Miller, you two, come down and have a rest."

Pritchard called out the names of Xue Ding and Roy during the timeout. Obviously, although the points are tight now, Pritchard is still very cautious.

After 2 minutes, the timeout ended and players from both sides returned to the field.

"The timeout is back. The Mavericks also brought Marion up. The Blazers also made some adjustments. Roy and Xue Ding replaced Miller and Batum!" Yang Rui watched the two sides appear on the big screen. The players introduced.

"From the substitutions made by both sides this time, we can see that both sides are very cautious!" Director Zhang said.

At the beginning of the game, Xue Ding slowly dribbled the ball across the half court, facing Barea's defense, he directly accelerated to the basket.

Although Barea's speed could keep up with Xue Ding.

But it was still too difficult to defend Xue Ding, Xue Ding rushed to the basket and scored easily.

"Xue Ding saw that it was Barea who was guarding him in front of him. He was very determined to take the ball and went straight to it. Although Barea could keep up with the speed, his height and strength were too short!" Director Zhang looked at Xue on the big screen. Ding said.

"That's right, Barea's height and strength are too disadvantaged!" Yang Rui echoed.

"It's tied again. Let's see if the Blazers can defend against the Mavericks' attack this time. If they defend against this ball, they will have a chance to overtake!"

Barea dribbled the ball across half court, and Nowitzki leaned on Oden with his back.

Barea lobs the ball in.

Nowitzki received the ball and was not in a hurry to attack. He turned his back and observed the Blazers' defensive movements.

After making sure that no one came up to double-team, Nowitzki leaned back, started dribbling the ball in, and half-turned away from Oden.

Turned over and leaned back and threw the ball steadily.

"Shh!"

The ball draws a wonderful arc in the air and hits the net hollow.

Nowitzki was not relentless, and used his personal ability to score the ball, leading the score again.

But looking back, Xue Ding and Roy were covering each other. The purpose was very clear to find Barea, and Barea would fight whoever was defending.
