Chapter 229 Slow down and strike.

Fry stepped forward to catch the ball, Batum stared closely at the guard, and Xue Ding followed Nash closely, not allowing a convenient opportunity to catch the ball.

Xiao Si ran up from the basket, and Chandler quickly followed. Xiao Si received the ball, and a shot caught the ball and made Chandler move. After the ball was dropped, he accelerated and rushed down the basket with big strides.

Two steps together, grab the ball with one hand, jump high, and a black shadow flew straight from the bottom line on the left.

Xiao Si, who was in the air, felt a huge force coming, and the ball escaped. Xiao Si's body descended and tried hard to maintain balance in the air.

Chandler took the rebound.

Xue Ding, who landed on the ground, roared and waved his right arm.

The angry Xiao Si got up and rushed towards Xue Ding.

Chandler stretched out his left arm to block Xiao Si. Xiao Si angrily shook Chandler away. Xue Ding raised his hands high and looked at the referee innocently.

The referee rushed over quickly, stopped Xiao Si, and kept verbally warning him.

Fry hugged Xiaosi and kept comforting her in his ears.

Xue Ding looked at Xiao Si with a smile on his face, and he looked like I liked to see you that you were unhappy with me, but I couldn't do anything to me.

Xiao Si pushed Fry away with his angry hands and rushed towards the leopard. The referee whistled and gave it to Xiao Si a T-shaped figure with his right hand. At the same time, he looked at Xiao Si with a serious face, and his cheeks were bulging, preparing to do it again.

Nash hugged Xiao Si and kept shouting at him.

Seeing Nash speak, Xiao Si stopped impulsively and looked at Xue Ding with a fierce look.

Xiao Si also understands that if he doesn't control himself, he will be expelled. Even though he is at home, he has a violent tendency and ignores the referee's warnings and punishments, he will be severely punished by the NBA.

The game continued, Xue Ding held the ball. After halftime, Fernandez mentioned the ball to receive the ball at a high position. Xue Ding ran to the right and stuck Hill's low position to continue asking for the ball.

After Fernandez handed the ball to Xue Ding, he pulled it to the 45° position on the left and took Nash away.

Seeing that Xue Ding was going to play singles on his back again, Xiao Si kept grabbing the position and wanted to stand in the direction of Xue Ding facing the basket. If Xue Ding breaks through, he can still make up for defense.

Xue Ding held the ball with both hands, leaning against Hill, and maintaining enough space on his lower body.

Hill pressed Xue Ding tightly with his arm, not daring to relax at all.

Xue Ding swung left and right, suddenly turned around, quickly got the ball, pulled back, opened the space, and made a two-point jump shot.

Realistic movements and neat moves.

Hill was deceived and almost fell down.

The score was 81:81, and both sides tied.

Xue Ding scored 6 points in a row, tying the score.

Gentry immediately called for a timeout.

On the bench of the Trail Blazers, Prichard held the tactical board and excitedly made tactical arrangements.

"Xue, you do a pretty job, you have to fight deeper and more aggressively."

"Batum, don't move in the bottom corner, move and drive your people."

"Tyson, protect the rebounds and don't let them rush into the inside easily"

"Everyone, press the whole game to suppress the opponent's advancement speed and don't lose position."

...

Both coaches made arrangements for the situation on the field.

As soon as the Suns came up, they changed their strategy, Hill took the ball through half and handed it over to Nash.

However, the Trail Blazers' full-game press still worked, and the Suns were unable to play the seven-second offensive tactic.

Nash received the ball at 45° on the right, Hill picked and rolled, Nash broke through in a reverse direction and accelerated from the weak side of the pick-and-roll and rushed to the inside. Xue Ding quickly turned around and chased after him.

Little Stan stuck Chandler tightly, not giving him the chance to move over.

Nash leaned against Xue Ding and started dribbling directly, picked up the basket with one hand, and tilted his body backwards, hitting the ball.

The score was 81:83, the Suns took a temporary lead, and the fans shouted loudly.

“defence”

“defence”

“defence”

...

After half the game, Xue Ding continued to hand the ball over to Batum. Batum stood at a high position on the right, Xue Ding stuck Hill at low position, and the ball was suspended.

Hill kept a half-step distance and stuck Xue Ding. Xue Ding noticed that Fry was starting to shrink the distance between him and wanted to form a double-team.

It seems that these singles have given the Suns double-team tactics.

Xue Ding was not in a hurry to get the ball, and Fry didn't dare to come too early.

Continuous back-playing and not three-pointers are also to reduce the speed of the Suns. Once they are not scored, the rebound will fall into the Suns' joint defense circle. If they counterattack, they will not be able to catch up.

Xue Ding is very clear about the coach's intention, which is to maintain offensive efficiency, reduce speed, and disrupt the rhythm of the Suns.

There were 14 seconds left, and Xue Ding kept shaking left and right, adjusting his center of gravity.

Hill kept adjusting his position with Xue Ding's movements. Seeing Xue Ding still looking for space, he directly lowered his center of gravity, stepped on his legs, and pressed against Xue Ding.

As soon as he felt Hill's actions, Xue Ding immediately dropped the ball, stayed away from the basket, and did not give Hill the chance to cheat and foul.

This kind of completely lowering the center of gravity completely blocks the offensive man's defense in the lower set. The advantage is that it is very stuck and the offensive man cannot continue to advance. If he advances rashly, the two of them fall to the ground and an offensive foul will easily come.

The disadvantages are also obvious. The attacker gave up and continued to carry his back, and the dribble was easily broken when he walked away.

But what Hill wants is this effect. If Xue Ding goes deeper, he will have to wait for the dunk.

There are 10 seconds left.

Xue Ding watched Fry move forward, and he knew that Hill must come from behind at the same time and would form a double-team for himself. Both sides were fighting a time war.

When he saw that Fry was still one step away, Xue Ding turned right and dribbled up to Hill, who had just come up. Fry quickly ran to Xue Ding's strong side of the ball holder.

Xue Ding turned left and threw the two of them at the same time, took a step, jumped up to make a mid-range shot, and hit a steadily.

The score was 83:83, and the two sides tied again.

Under the pressure of the Trail Blazers, the Suns kept transferring through the transmission ball. Once they made an open position, they directly pulled out three points, and did not go out in a comfortable rhythm. They made three shots.

Chandler took the rebound and found Xue Ding as soon as possible. Xue Ding changed his previous violent counterattack style, slowly advanced and sought position war.

Through singles, he attracted double teams, assisted continuously on the outside, led the Trail Blazers to take a 9-point lead.

The score is 92:83, and there are still 4 minutes and 30 seconds left.

Gentry called for a timeout again.

The tactical arrangement was effectively targeted by the Trail Blazers, and the situation was suppressed. If the score was widened, there would be no time to turn the tables.

After the coaches of both sides set up tactics, the game continued.

The adjusted Suns started the team's crazy running mode as soon as they came up. As soon as they served, they all pulled the run and immediately passed the ball when they encountered a tight press.
