Chapter 152 The Flying White Warcraft
The whistle sounded at the end of halftime, and the players of the two teams went back to the locker room.

The Bobcats, which led by 9 points in the first quarter, barely maintained the lead at 55:53 under the counterattack of the Clippers in the second quarter.

"This is the performance I want, which is great." Clippers coach De Nagro reached out to high-five Paul, who scored 9 points and 3 assists in this quarter.

The Clippers scored 32 points in a single quarter, while Paul directly scored 9 points and assisted 7 points for a total of 16 points, exactly half of the team's points.

In addition to the captain who took the lead, the sailors who were on the bench also performed outstandingly. Crawford and Bledsoe scored 12 points together for 13 minutes, and Barnes also contributed a full 6 points in half a quarter.

The only thing is that first officer Griffin pulled a little bit, but he carried the team in the first quarter, so there is no need to be harsh in the second quarter.

The atmosphere in the locker room of the visiting team was good, and the crew members were gearing up to equalize or even overtake the score in the second half.

24 points in a single quarter is a little embarrassing for the Bobcats.

This time it was the Bobcats' turn to score only one three-pointer in a single quarter, and the 7-for-1 three-pointer in a single quarter was even better than the Clippers in the first quarter.

The Clippers, who had a bleak three-pointer in the first quarter, have crossed the red line in three-point shooting in the current two quarters, 4/11, 36%.

"Defense, we have to do a good job of defense. I can accept Paul's three-pointer against Kemba, and I won't blame Kemba. But the remaining two three-pointers are all open three-pointers.

Rotate a little faster, OK?It's good to make up the defense, and you can't go wrong helping your teammates defend, but we can't give them that easy shot. "Dunlap emphasized solemnly.

Sitting in his seat, Chen Xiao was also thinking about pick-and-roll defense. After all, once the formed defensive chain was disturbed, gaps would easily be exposed.

The open space also tends to appear outside the widest three-point line.

……

The 15 minutes of the half-time break were fleeting, and the fans returned to their seats after buying food and drinking.

"The halftime is over. Welcome back to ESPN's live broadcast of the NBA regular season. This is the second half of the game between the Bobcats and the Clippers. The current score between the two teams is 55:53, with the Bobcats leading by 2 points."

The second half started with both teams returning to their starting lineups.

Paul, who came up confidently, faced Walker to break through and pull back to collect the ball, and made a one-step three-point shot from outside the three-point line.

Paul stood there after the shot, confident in the result of the shot, watched the ball fall steadily into the basket.

As soon as the ball was shot, Chen Xiao, who was fighting with Jordan behind him to try to occupy a better rebound position, watched the ball "swish", and the sound of the ball entering the net was so clear.

Isn't it right, are you so confident in your shots?

Paul is currently making 2 of 2 three-pointers in this game. It seems that the number is not much, but you must know that Paul has only scored 1 three-pointer per game this season, which is already his amount in two games.

The key is to be accurate and decisive.

Grabbing the ball at his feet, he took a step back and passed it to Walker. Chen Xiao ran forward.

In the low position on the right side of the basket, Chen Xiao successfully received an outside pass.

At the moment of receiving the ball, the left foot stood firm, and the right foot led the body to turn, from the back to the basket to the face frame.

While turning around, grab the ball with both hands and make a fake shot.

Little Qiaodan in front of him didn't respond. Chen Xiao received the ball and swung it towards his outstretched right foot, making a breakthrough. Little Qiaodan moved a little to the baseline.

Chen Xiao seized the opportunity, retracted his right foot and took a step up the line. Facing Paul, who was harassing from the direction of the line, he immediately lowered his center of gravity and exploded the ball.

After receiving the ball, he could ignore Paul's threat of stealing. Chen Xiao swiped the ball again, and Jordan, who was stepping on the collision line behind the basket, responded as if the take-off button had been pressed.

Seeing that Jordan was jumping vertically on the spot in a standard manner, Chen Xiao also collected the ball to complete the shooting action, dialed the ball steadily, and easily hit the short-range shot.

After the jump, Jordan turned his head to watch the ball go into the basket, and subconsciously jumped again as if to grab a rebound.

Fxxk, Xiao Qiaodan cursed secretly, the first time he feinted he was steady and did not jump, but the second time he saw that Chen Xiao had joined the ball and was one step closer to the basket, it should be a shot, but in the end, it was a joke thorough.

"Woooo, in front of Chen Xiao, DeAndre looks so helpless, I can't help but wonder who is the first-year rookie and who is the fifth-year player." The voice of Knight's live commentary sounded again in the arena.

Knight knew who paid him his salary, so he only said the name of Jordan, who was in a mess this round.

But soon, Jordan regained a little face for himself.

It was not by giving Chen Xiao a big hat or dunking directly on Chen Xiao's head, but by passing the ball.

When Chen Xiao watched Jordan rarely get the ball in the low post, he lowered his focus and respected Jordan, his chest and abdomen tightened, and he was ready to resist Jordan's back kick.

Unexpectedly, Jordan turned his head to glance and hit the ball behind him.

Turning around, Clippers guard Green had already received the ball to avoid Mullens' block and completed a layup from Haidilaoyue.

Hey, Zhang Fei embroidered, right? This assist must be the amount of Jordan's 3 or 4 games.

When I came to the frontcourt, I saw that Jordan had given up on playing skills, and Chen Xiao's hands were itchy too much, but we don't show off passing skills, we want to show off skills.

He bent his hips, pouted his butt, pushed Jordan away, and poked his right hand out. Chen Xiaofu took another step outside the paint area on the left to receive the pass.

Grabbing the ball, he straightened up and leaned against Jordan behind him. After Middleton, who passed the ball, took away the defender, Chen Xiao turned his head sideways to observe the situation.

The free-throw line is Mullens at the top of the arc. In order to prevent the Clippers from getting off easily without a frame guard, the Bobcats put a big pitcher on the top of the arc, and Griffin, the defender, stands at the free-throw line.

Griffin took one step back a little bit, and one step back a little bit, and his intention to defend was obvious.

Raising his guard, Chen Xiao slammed the ball with his right hand, sat back, and pushed Jordan a little farther away.

Seeing that Griffin hadn't made up his mind to attack, another heavy blow from the back hit Jordan's chest hard with his shoulder, and even the burly Jordan let out a muffled groan.

Chen Xiao, who had already stepped on the sideline of the paint area with one foot, saw that the time had come, and made a quick turn to the inside lane.

The shoulder, elbow and hand joints on the right side of the body confronted Jordan, who was standing in the way, and Chen Xiao, who turned around, broke free from the resistance caused by the friction and jumped to join the ball.

After carrying it away, he rushed back in time. Jordan, who raised his hands and squeezed his offensive space with his body, set up the space with his right hand, grabbed the ball with his left hand, and hit the basket with a hit.

Jordan, who adjusted his footsteps and turned around to catch up, despite his excellent explosive power, was unable to soar into the air at all during the momentary confrontation of strength. He jumped over the basketball and Chen Xiao, who was lying between him, could only end up trying to block the shot. Zhong watched the basketball hit the backboard and fell into the hoop.

Seeing the ball scored, Chen Xiao turned around and saw a Griffin standing next to Jordan, but Chen Xiao turned to the baseline, Griffin had no way to defend, and there was an extra little Griffin between him and the ball. What about Jordan.

"Blake, you can go faster, otherwise, like now, you can only come back to pick up the ball." Chen Xiao, with a friendly face, gave Griffin some experience advice.

It's just that Griffin didn't appreciate it, and turned around and ran away without saying thank you.

"Okay, I was wrong, DeAndre, it's you picking up the ball." Chen Xiao saw Jordan picking up the ball, and without waiting for Jordan to reply, Chen Xiao returned to the defense and left, only staying looking at the ball in his hand The more you look at the more unhappy Jordan.

"Kemba~Walker! Just as tough as in the first half! My bowl!" The passionate commentary sounded from the TV to the fans' ears.

The tough goal just now was replayed on the screen immediately.

Chen Xiao mentioned that Walker made a pick-and-roll on the right wing, but he missed the pick-and-roll. It was still Walker and Willie Green one-on-one.

Walker pushed Green along the sideline and broke through to the short corner. Walker took a big leap with the ball, reached the basket, jumped up and leaned back to fight and hit.

The referee on the 15th bottom line whistled and gestured for a valid shooting foul. Andone.

Green, who was sentenced to a foul, spread his hands towards referee No. 15, with a helpless face, saying that Walker was the foul.

But the referee who had already made the penalty ignored it and went straight to the technical table to register the penalty.

Chen Xiao, who was rushing to the basket, saw that Walker had successfully scored and was given an additional penalty. He bumped into the chest of Walker who turned around, "Hard!"

Walker made an extra free throw and succeeded with a 3-pointer.

But turning around, the Clippers players also walked to the free throw line.

With a swoop with his right hand, Griffin, with his tried and tested turn and back run, received a just-right pass from Paul and was about to hit the basket.

Griffin's defender, Mullens, couldn't react all of a sudden and was thrown away, or maybe he reacted, but his body didn't listen, and he was lined into a ball under Griffin's exaggerated turning speed. wooden stakes.

Chen Xiao on the other side had noticed in advance, Paul was dribbling the ball at the top of the arc, while Griffin was dawdling on the left side, Chen Xiao subconsciously felt that the two were going to throw an alley-oop.

Ignoring Griffin's movements, Chen Xiao focused on Paul's golfers' activities.

Seeing Paul receiving the ball, Chen Xiao left Jordan and walked towards the basket.

Stepping forward to the basket with big strides, a white monster jumped up in front of Chen Xiao.

At this time, it is already at a disadvantage, and most defenders may just float sideways and forget it. If it is not necessary to become a background wall, it may also be sent to 2+1. After all, Griffin, who has been known as a white monster in the league for 2 or 3 years, has a button There are countless background walls in the collection.

But on a bigger scale, this is the Lynx's basket, and Chen Xiao has the responsibility to protect the basket.

To put it mildly, ahem, the main reason is that I just finished talking about Griffin, and now I seem to be afraid of difficulties, that’s not allowed.

Feeling that it was too late, Chen Xiao pushed the floor with both feet, and swung his right hand as hard as he could to the front of the basket, trying to lock the last line of defense in front of the basket.

"Bang", Chen Xiao only felt a strong force coming from his palm, and managed to hold on, but he was still defeated.Lifting the sky with one hand still couldn't mend the big hole made by swinging the hammer with both hands.

But what exploded in the ears of all the players and fans was not the sound of dunking into the basket, it was slightly different.

After Griffin grabbed the ball with both hands and was blocked by Chen Xiao with one hand, it was just a wonderful alley-oop, but now Griffin, who can dunk Chen Xiao, tightened his waist and tried his best to press down for a slam dunk.

But being blocked, Griffin, who still kept the ball smashing towards the basket, lost full control of the basketball.

The basketball knocked away the defender's big hand and hit the ring at the same time, blowing up with a "bang".

"Beep" Referee Salvador No. 15 on the bottom line is full of presence today. After blowing the Clippers, he blows another Bobcats.

Feeling that his hand touched Griffin's arm, Chen Xiao silently accepted the penalty.

After all, Griffin was not allowed to complete the ravages of the basket.

As for free throws, that's the next thing.

Griffin, who fell from the sky, slapped his hands suddenly when he saw the basketball smashed into the air, looking very regretful.This isn't a $400 thing, this is a comeback, and this is a great opportunity to show off the current league leader in shot blocks.

Unfortunately, I didn't grasp it.
