Chapter 226 Provocation of Xiao Si
Faced with the momentum of tsunami moving at home, Xue Ding knew that only goals were the most favorable response.
Xue Ding held the ball and signaled his teammates to open up the space. Ad and Chandler were in the inside, guarding their territory from left to right. Roy and Batum fell in the bottom corner, involving the space.
Richardson stared at Xue Ding. Nash and Barbosa did not follow, but formed an external joint defense between the bottom corner and Xue Ding.
Hill stuck Xue Ding's weak side, echoing Barbosa on the right, basically cutting off the line of passing the ball directly at the top of the arc and bottom corners.
Xue Ding knew that his 100% three-point shooting percentage in the first quarter made the Suns afraid, and directly defended from the outside, reducing the space for attack.
The center of gravity was pressed down, and the right foot was protruded out in one step. The speed was too fast. Hill retreated without hesitation, moved the center of gravity back and made a backup defense. Xue Ding pulled back to three cents in one step. Hill couldn't stop and watched Xue Ding raise his hand and push and shoot.
The fake move was too fast, and the defenders on both sides reacted and Xue Ding had already taken action.
"Clang"
The ball spun in the basket for several times and flew out.
"I'm rough"
Xue Ding couldn't help but throw out a national scolding.
The opponent just made targeted defense against himself. This was the best time to hit the opponent's momentum, but he actually made a blacksmith.
I know that a hit rate of 100 cannot last, but I can't lose the chain at this time.
Xue Ding didn't have time to think about it anymore, so he quickly devoted himself to returning to defense.
Nash dribbled the ball and advanced at high speed, Barbosa and Hill went down the wings, and Richardson and S. Jr. followed closely in the center.
Seeing that the defenders on the bottom corners of both sides were in place and there was no chance, Roy was in the position of two steps to make a defensive breakthrough, Nash did not hesitate to raise his hand and make a three-pointer.
Roy rushed over quickly. It was too late. Roy, who had lost his explosive power, always felt a beat slower in speed.
Nash raised his hands to inspire the enthusiasm of the fans, with three-pointer hitting.
“vp”
“vp”
“vp”
...
Xue Ding asked for the ball in a low position. After receiving the ball, he quickly turned around and accelerated to the left to pass Hill. Richardson quickly moved over, but facing Xue Ding's speed was meaningless at all.
He floated past Richardson easily and faced the covetous Si.
"Dunking Heavenly Lord"
Xue Ding soared into the air, with his left body in front, grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, and headed straight for the basket, like lightning.
Xiao Si jumped up and the big slap flashed directly. Xue Ding pushed Xiao Si's arm away, and took the ball with his right hand and smashed it hard towards the basket.
"Clang" one-arm buckle, Xue Ding hung on the basket, looking down at Xiao Si who was knocked to the ground.
After landing, Xue Ding stepped in front of Xiao Si and roared.
Xiao Si's eyes widened, and his hands stretched back and rushed directly towards Xue Ding.
Originally, his temper was irritable, not only was he knocked down, but he was so provoked. And it was his own home court, so Xiao Si was on the spot.
Looking at Xiao Si who was coming towards him with great momentum, Xue Ding directly met him.
Suddenly, a figure rushed over and hung on Xiao Si.
It turned out that Nash rushed over immediately to block Xiao Si. The other teammates also came and pulled Xiao Si away.
Xiao Si was very angry and turned around and spoke trash at Xue Ding while walking.
Xue Ding gave Xiao Si a signature move directly to Uncle Mu.
Teammates came to celebrate with high fives.
"Xue Gan's beautiful"
"I've been upset with him for a long time, and I feel that I can do everything and fuck him."
"Xue, I'll take you"
...
They all expressed their support in words and actions.
The game continued, and the Suns attacked. Sir Jr. made a request. After receiving the ball, he faced Chandler's defense with two steps away, jumped off the building and hit steadily.
After scoring the goal, he looked back at Xue Ding, his eyes as if he was about to eat people.
If Nash is the Suns' brain, then Xiao Si is the Suns' strongest hands, with accurate mid-range shots, quick breakthroughs, all-around contacts, and dunks.
Except for being a little shorter, Sir Xiao meets all the definitions of the Suns for center.
I got O'Pang before, but found that the entire team would not be able to play anymore. Although O'Pang's remaining power was still there, the speed was incompatible with the entire team. Moreover, the head coach was a traditional coach, and the Suns instantly became a team with four-dimensional style.
Until Gentry, who sent O'Pang away and replaced the running and bombing concept, the Suns once again showed their strength. Under Nash's sorting, Sir once again produced efficient data and became an indispensable member of the system.
As soon as he entered the league, Xiao Si was proud and rejuvenated again and looked down on anyone in the same position. He threatened to beat up the opponent so he was facing him, but Xue Ding directly provoked and ignored him.
Xiao Si said he was very manic.
After the Suns' offense for several rounds, Sir took the initiative to ask for a mid-range shot, a breakthrough dunk, and the game was very pleasant.
As a result, the score not only did not widen, but also widened.
52:40, the Suns were two points behind, but when Sir broke out, he was 12 points behind.
Two minutes left, Gentry quickly called for a timeout and replaced it with a substitute. If Sir's emotional ball was played like this, the score would definitely be even bigger.
As a coach, you can see clearly the form on the field. Xue Ding's purpose of provocation is to let Xiao Shin take the ball and play more.
Because as soon as Xiao Si got the ball, Nash had less time to control the ball. In addition, Xiao Si was against Chandler, and he was indeed advantageous in offense and could make any move. As soon as he felt hot, Nash could only satisfy his claim.
Emotionally, Xiao Si didn't notice that he was comfortable in attacking, and Ade shot well. Facing Richardson's defense, after Ade asked for the ball at a high position, Richardson posted it up, just a turn-around mid-range shot. If he didn't come up, he threw it directly at a fixed point. Seeing Xue Ding run out of the position, he could still make assists.
When both sides hit the same shooting percentage, if there are three-pointers but no three-pointers, the effect is still different, and the score slowly widens in the fierce confrontation.
In the last two minutes, both sides replaced the substitute. Under the leadership of Old Miller, the old strategy was still the same, and the speed was slowing down and dragged the Suns to continue to fight the positional battle against the substitutes.
Both sides went back and forth, and they made frequent blows. At the end of the first half, the Trail Blazers led by 16 points at 60:44.
"Guide Zhang, as the core of the Suns, Nash is like the key to the engine. Why doesn't Xue Ding suppress Nash just by targeting Nash, but targeting Xiao Si?"
"Haha, this is Xue Ding's cleverness. It handles it very reasonably. It seems that his reading ability of the game has improved a lot. Nash is different from other defenders. Don't look thin, but he likes to find contact and passes the balls with you. If Xue Ding directly defends himself, as long as he contacts, he will fall to the ground or something, the referee will be able to punish Xue Ding for a foul."
