Chapter 193 289, guest battle against the Clippers

I flew to Staples and rented a training hall to train directly. They were arranged around the arena. The Clippers didn't play tricks on this point. The security personnel outside paced back and forth, and everyone was very quiet.

After a few minutes, everyone left their rooms and walked into Rick Carlisle's room, all very quiet.A few minutes later, Rick Carlisle was the first to speak: "Okay, I don't need to say more about the away game. You all know what to do. Let's think about how to play the away game."

All the players are very serious. The first two games were half a narrow victory, which can be regarded as luck. On the one hand, the home referee has an advantage. The Heat held the game against the 76ers, and also won the first game with a slight advantage of 93:87.

The Mavericks just flew to Staples today, and the Heat once again beat the away Philadelphia 76ers at home.

Iguodala performed very well in this game, scoring the highest score of the 76ers with 22 points, while LeBron James still misunderstood his performance. After two games, the data was 30+10+8. The defensive master Andre Iguodala can't restrict James in the playoffs too much. James at this time is considered to be the peak of his career.

"Okay! Their game is over. The Heat beat the 76ers again, but it doesn't matter. The first thing we want to talk about is how we beat the Los Angeles Clippers in the next game." Rick Carlisle clapped his hands and said.

"Maybe we can let Dirk try to go forward. Jason and I restrain Paul, but his center of gravity is too low. Jimmy defends him much better than me. Then look at our offense, we also appeared. turnovers, their defense wasn't without flaws, our defense wasn't flawless, and I think we've got a chance."

"Lin Xiao's three-pointer and Sean Marion's dislocation singles are the team's most stable scoring points. My fadeaway jumper, but I can't completely limit Blake Griffin, you know , His physical fitness is very good. I am a little struggling." Dirk Nowitzki also answered.

. . .

Two days later, the Clippers' home court, the Staples Center Arena.

There are also many fans of the Clippers. Lin Xiao took a deep breath. In this game, his pressure will be greater, the three-pointer on the weak side, the strong attack from the front, and the organization task of the rotation lineup.

The commentary of this game is also a local commentary in Los Angeles, and ESPN is also the broadcast of this game.However, the local commentary only pointed the finger at the three major media in the United States at the beginning.Dissatisfaction with its predictions.

The game started, look at the starting lineups of both sides, this time the Clippers did not continue to change, pg Chris Paul. sg Randy Foye sf Nick Young, pf Blake Griffin, c DeAndre Jordan.

Mavericks here. pg: Jimmy Butler, sg: Lin Xiao, sf Alfarouk Aminu pf Dirk Nowitzki c Larry Sanders.

The Mavericks' roster is a little odd.But still within the acceptable range.

Since Lin Xiao came to the Mavericks, they have tried many different lineups in two seasons, each time giving all the fans a surprise, but they performed very well every time.

"The game started. This time, the Mavericks had the ball. Lin Xiao had the ball for halftime."

When jumping the ball, Larry Sanders took the lead with his extraordinary wingspan and passed the ball to Lin Xiao. Opportunity, there is no way to speed up. Paul is known as the king of steals who never loses his position. Naturally, he has some strengths.

Jimmy Butler and Randy Foye are facing each other, and Lin Xiao and Chris Paul are facing each other on the offensive end. A high pick-and-roll is required. Lin Xiao receives Dirk Nowitzki's side ball and faces Chris with both hands. Paul.

"The Clippers use Chris Paul to defend Lin Xiao. It's just a joke. Chris is 1.83 tall, but Lin is about 2 meters tall. Are we going to see Lin Xiao's post-up singles again?"

Lin Xiao took the ball, took a tentative step, stepped back, and squeezed into the inside line against Chris Paul. He was double-teamed near the free throw line. Lin Xiao quickly stopped the ball and gave it to Alfaruk Ami in the corner. Slave, Aminu once again slashed to the inside, Lin Xiao quickly came to the bottom corner, gave the ball to Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao stepped back to face Chris Paul and directly shot a three-pointer.

Hard work!
Blake Griffin got the offensive rebound and quickly gave it to Chris Paul. Paul sprinted to the frontcourt, and Nick Young followed up. Chris Paul gave the ball to Nick Young. The empty basket, Nick Young Big windmill dunk.

"It's really a very stretched movement, but it seems that he took off a little far away. This ball should be selected for this season...Dumped? What, Nick Young was able to dunk the inevitable dunk."

Nick Young's ball took off a little far away, a little distance inside the free throw line, causing him to knock the ball directly on the neck of the basket. Jimmy Butler and Lin Xiao looked at Nick Young to the end, full of emotion in their hearts Qian, and he didn't launch an attack immediately, it's not easy to fall.

Fortunately, Nick Young has no problem and can continue the game. Lin Xiao dribbled the ball past halftime and wanted to start with a pick-and-roll tactic. However, Chris Paul’s positioning is really good, directly blocking Lin Xiao’s breakthrough route. You can only score the ball with your back and single or directly pull up a three-pointer. If you break through, then soon, Blake Griffin or DeAndre Jordan can help defend in the first place.

Lin Xiao dribbled for a while, but there was really no chance. He directly passed the ball to Dirk Nowitzki, and directly played Blake Griffin with his back. He turned around half a circle, held the ball and faced the basket fiercely. Slam it in hard.

Chris Paul quickly counterattacked, and with Paul's feint, Lin Xiao took a step back directly. Chris Paul also lost his fake move. Seeing that the fake move had an unexpected effect, Chris Paul jumped up and shot a three-pointer.

The chance of this shot was perfect. I saw that Lin Xiao shot directly without any hesitation when he retreated, but Lin Xiao did this on purpose, in order to paralyze Chris Paul. You must know that Lin Xiao was also a defensive player at the beginning.
