Chapter 276: Encountering a Foul Trap

Generally speaking, with the consumption of physical strength, the defensive intensity will definitely decrease, but in the face of the Trail Blazers' defense, the Clippers feel that is not the case at all.

It's like a group of people who were going to be tired suddenly glow with new vitality, whether it's man-to-man, or rotation, which has caused a lot of defensive pressure on their side, no matter who holds the ball, there is always someone in front of them anyway, and there is no open space to shoot and score easily.

Under such defensive intensity, the Clippers repeatedly hit the iron, and Xue Ding continued to chase and counterattack.

With just over three minutes to play, a 12-2 win to the Clippers gave the Trail Blazers the biggest 13-point lead of the game.

In the last two minutes, the Trail Blazers took the lead in replacing the main team, and the Clippers who were fighting at home were still on the court against the Trail Blazers bench under Roy's leadership when they were behind.

With a score of 79:70, the Trail Blazers led by nine points and ended the third quarter.

On the bench, Pritchard was very passionate about the performance of the players in the third quarter.

"Xue, well done, you are our engine, let go of yourself and fight bravely"

"Ade, believe in yourself, you do a good job defending, but your stronger weapon is offense"

"Tyson, don't be too impatient, keep your emotions in check, you're important to us"

"Don't stop on the outside, always be ready to catch the ball at any time"

"Come on, lads, don't give them any chances, no illusions, take away the victory that belongs to us"

After Pritchard finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand, and the players also stretched out their right hand to come up, and everyone shouted in unison: "Victory, victory, victory"

At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, the Clippers' desire for victory was very strong, and the main players continued to play, and strengthened the offense as soon as they came up.

Davis kept rushing inside with the ball, and if the opening break was a tactical option, it was now the only execution.

This caused trouble for Xue Ding, in just two minutes, he had already committed two fouls, plus two fouls in the first three quarters, the number of fouls in this game reached four.

With ten minutes left in the fourth quarter, Schröding knew that he had suffered a foul problem prematurely, which would have had a fatal impact on the team as a whole.

It was Davis who used the misplaced opportunity to resolutely break through to find Xue Ding, seeking the opportunity for Xue Ding to make up for the foul.

Defense is always passive, and when Davis resolutely breaks through, Xue Ding has no choice but not to make up for the defense, because Davis, who is physically strong, is the Clippers' top scorer.

However, when one side broke through very resolutely, it caused such a kill, forcing Xue Ding to foul more fouls and knocking out the strongest point of the Trailblazers, which was also a strategy of breaking the surface with points.

Realizing the other party's intentions, Xue Ding sighed in his heart, although the Eastern and Western cultures are different, maybe the strategy of a thing is different, but the essence is no different, in domestic words, the other party's coach obviously understands the Chinese civilization of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.

Pritchard was not an idle person, and quickly called a timeout, otherwise, if Xue Ding was sent off, or shrunk on the field, the operation of the whole team would be as if there was no engine.

The other party knows the importance of Xue Ding, and as the head coach, he knows better.

"Xue, you down, Roy up, the trouble of fouling came too early, which made us very passive"

"Ade, remember what I said to you when I first came on the field, your biggest weapon is attacking"

"Batum, you focus on defending Davis, you must choke him"

"Fernandez, watch your movements, don't hesitate and believe in yourself when you get your chance"

Xue Ding saw that the coach replaced himself and the cockscomb man, and replaced Roy and Fernandez, and he also knew the coach's tactical intentions, replacing Roy with a team organizer, and replacing Fernandez with Fernandez to enhance the scoring point, after all, he is good at outside three-pointers, and he is an athletic forward, and he is also good at defense.

If it is a regular game, there is no problem with this substitution tactic, and it is also a corresponding correct adjustment to the opponent's tactics.

"Coach I want to continue playing, since the opponent's tactics are aimed at me, then I played, no matter what, it means that the opponent's tactics have succeeded, believe me, I can handle this matter"

Xue Ding looked at the head coach confidently and said what he really thought.

Pritchard was stunned, obviously a little surprised, as the head coach of the NBA, it can be said that he is a very rational person, and he only looks at the situation when arranging the troops, and rarely considers it from other aspects, after all, the other party is obviously using the foul rules to target Xue Ding, and there are still ten minutes, and he has already committed four fouls, obviously staying on the court is not a wise choice.

"Xue, you know that there are two more times to be sent off, so I have to protect you reasonably"

"Trust me coach, I'm confident to solve"

Xue Ding firmly expressed his will, without any hesitation, Pritchard looked at his beloved general, nodded, and finally chose to believe.

The score was 82:80, with 9:55 left on the clock, and the Trail Blazers led by 2 points.

The main forces of both sides continued to return to the court, and the Trail Blazers attacked.

Xue Ding came to the midfield with the ball, Adeti came up to receive the ball, and after Xue Ding handed over the ball, he quickly ran to the left bottom corner, and at the same time made a cross block and run with Batum in the bottom corner.

Smith followed very closely, Xue Ding didn't care about this, after coming to the bottom corner, he was no longer running, as if telling Smith, I handed over the attack to Ade, I just wanted to attract you.

After Ade got the ball, he squatted down directly in the face of Griffin's defense and began to hit his back, when he relied on playing before, the center of gravity was kept a little high, resulting in no advantage of his weight and strength at all.

Seeing that Griffin has been at a disadvantage, and after two or three steps, he is basically at the basket position, Smith can't help but focus on the two people who are fighting, and prepare to be trapped.

Xue Ding has been observing the situation on the field in the bottom corner, and when he saw that Smith who was defending himself was completely attracted to attention, he quickly cut in from the outside, and Ade passed the ball tacitly, Xue Ding received the ball and jumped directly, Smith reacted, it was over, and Xue Ding, who was in the air, directly won a violent dunk.
