NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 269 Double Teamed by Two Super Defensive Players
Staples Center.

In the Lakers locker room, the atmosphere is more active.

They played well in the first half, so the coach just gave a brief talk and let the players rest.

Some players are listening to music to relax, and some players are doing simple physical therapy.

Some players are playing with their mobile phones.

Of course, they can't tweet when they're on their phones.

There was such an incident in the NBA. A player tweeted during the intermission: The coach is setting up tactics. I think he is right.

This caused great controversy at the time.

The fans feel that the coach is arranging tactics, you don't listen carefully, and even tweet.

This is disrespect to the coach and disrespect to the teammates.

Since then, the NBA has stipulated that players are not allowed to post on social media until the game is over.

The atmosphere in the Clippers locker room is more dignified.

In their home court, all the atmosphere is in place, and the chicken soup from the coach before has filled them up.

The result was 20 points behind as soon as it came up, which was obviously very disappointing.

Leonard was sitting on a chair with his back against the cabinet in the locker room.

There was still no expression on his face, and there seemed to be no waves in his heart.

He is like a ditch of stagnant water, the breeze can't blow the slightest ripple.

Paojiao tried to encourage his teammates, he clenched his fists and spoke impassionedly:
"20 points is nothing!"

"We fell behind 2-0 twice in the playoffs last year. Didn't we succeed in reversing it in the end?"

"Our Clippers have no lack of resilience, no lack of tenacity."

"The king is old and it's time to overthrow his rule."

What he said was impassioned, but apart from Beverly, there were very few responders.

After being eliminated from the playoffs last year, he tried to boost morale, but was confronted by his teammates.

He still lacks the temperament of the boss.

In today's era, maybe you can say that James is old, and Durant is already No.1 in the league;

You can also say that Antetokounmpo is No.1 in the league;
You can say that many players play better than James.

But it is undeniable that in terms of the team leader, no player can compare with James.

Leonard can't;
Durant can't;
Neither can Antetokounmpo.

None of them have the ability to get along with teammates like James, but also to make teammates respect.

This guy James can be said to be a natural leader.

Seeing that the players were depressed, Tyronn Lu shook his head and said:

"Kawhi, Paul, you are the two arrows of the team. You have to take on more offensive responsibilities."

"Of course, the other players also have to perform their duties."

"The Lakers played very smoothly today, and it was very difficult for us to defend. Then we will compete with them on offense. Our advantage lies in the three-point shooting. Throughout the season, our three-point shooting percentage has remained in the top three of the three leagues. So after the second half, we're going to shoot more threes."

"Of course, you can't give up the chance to hit the basket."

……

At the beginning of the second half, the main players of both sides played.

The Clippers really implemented the guidelines for shooting three-pointers, and scored two three-pointers in a row as soon as they came up.

But for the Lakers, James responded with a three-pointer, and Wang Yi also responded with a three-pointer.

The point difference remains at 20 points.

The Clippers' next offense is not going too well.

Fortunately, their team's three-pointers played well.

They shot 51 percent from three in this game.

Of course, although the Lakers' three-pointers are not good, Wang Yi has increased his three-point shooting rate by himself.

The Lakers also made 50.3% of their three-pointers in this game.

The two teams were evenly matched with three points.

In terms of interior scoring.

The Lakers didn't dare to shrink their defense, which allowed Paojiao and Leonard to get a lot of opportunities to get inside and mid-range shots.

It's just that Pickled Pepper's performance in the second half of today was a disaster.

Two points for 6 of 1.

Leonard could only support it by himself.

In turn, the Clippers did not dare to shrink their defense.

When the Clippers' defense expanded, the mutual pick-and-roll between James, Nongmei and Wang Yi of the Lakers showed their power.

All three can shoot three-pointers and can kill the paint.

Such a pick-and-roll combination is unsolvable.

The Clippers even called two timeouts, but failed to stop the momentum of the Lakers.

By the 6th minute of the third quarter, the Lakers had already led by 26 points, and they were about to hit 30 points.

Most people thought that this game was over for the Clippers.

But no one expected that at this time the Clippers suddenly came out with a surprise soldier.

Terrence Mann.

His short dreadlocks are only two inches long.

It's not tied up, as long as you turn your head, these little dreadlocks will dance with you.

He was just a role player before.

But in the playoffs last year, he was regarded as a surprise soldier.

When Pickle and Leonard are not doing well, he will pop up and become a strong firepower for the team.

When he was sent on the field, he scored two three-pointers in a row.

Then he made three consecutive breakthrough layups.

One person scored 12 points in a row.

On the Lakers side, James has gone down to rest first.

Leonard personally went to prevent thick eyebrows.

Leonard's long hands and long feet made his thick eyebrows uncomfortable for a while.

At the same time, Baojiao and Beverly double-teamed Wang Yi.

You know, the single defense ability of these two people is quite strong.

Anyone can single-handedly defend any player in the league.

Beverley is tougher than Durant.

Now these two people came to defend Wang Yi at the same time, which shows how panicked the Clippers were by Wang Yi's three-pointer.

The two defended against each other, making it difficult for Wang Yi to catch the ball.

Caruso, Kuzma and Harrell have limited abilities and can only make one occasionally.

Wang Yi and Nongmei couldn't hit the pick-and-roll. He made a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, all of which were ironed.

In the end, after the third quarter, the Lakers' lead was eroded to only 15 points.

Wang Yi has been playing for Nongmei and James in the first half of this quarter, and was double-teamed by Paojiao and Beverly in the second half.

So this quarter only scored 2 points, grabbed 2 rebounds, and sent 2 assists.

Personal data 35 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.

To be reasonable, this statistic is pretty good for any player.

But those sunspots will always see only your black spots.

On Twitter and Facebook, many black people jumped out.

"Hehe, this is the guy you guys are bragging about who wants to surpass Kobe?"

"Still James is there. James is not there, this guy is a shit."

"Eastern's physique is still too poor. The intensity of the playoffs is far higher than the regular season, so he has already collapsed after two quarters. If this continues, he may die in Staples on the spot after the fourth quarter."

In the commentary seat on the sidelines, Kenny Smith was elated this time.

"Shaq, the Chinese player you're bragging about has discounted data in the third quarter. Let me interview you, what do you think?"

O'Neill also imitated Kenny Smith's appearance and his tone, without blushing and heartbeat:
"To see a player's performance, you have to watch the whole game. What if someone explodes in the last quarter?"

Kenny Smith laughed: "You don't look like that at all. But I'm waiting for you to get slapped in the face in the last quarter."

O'Neill shrugged: "I will return this to you intact, we will wait and see."
