Chapter 252: Difficult Task
Xue Ding was completely immersed in self-improvement training, and did not feel the changes in his teammates and head coaches' senses, and the most important thing in Xue Ding's heart during this time was how to complete the assist task.
Time flew by, and the second game started on March 25.
The Valgiovia Center of Gravity Arena has a capacity of more than 20,000 people and is full.
The 76ers aren't doing very well in the league right now, with the best result in history being the Finals under passing star Iverson.
It's been almost ten years, although this achievement has not been broken, more in the first two rounds of the playoffs, but the overall team is young, and now there is a small AI known as Iguodala to lead the team, so the fans of the city are as enthusiastic as ever.
As soon as Xue Ding entered the court, he felt this warm atmosphere, which is worthy of being a team with a young youth left by a passing star, and the basketball culture of the whole city is very strong.
Such a warm atmosphere and such a difficult task in his heart made Xue Ding's mood a little heavy.
Amid the cheers of the fans in the stadium, the game was ready to begin.
Trail Blazers starters: Xue Ding, Batum, Webster, Ade, Chandler,
76ers starters: Williams, Willie?? Green, Iguodala, Brand, Jason?? Smith.
The referee provoked the basketball, Chandler dialed the ball to Xue Ding very easily, and although Smith was 213CM, the bounce was relatively weak.
Xue Ding holds the ball, the speed is controlled very slowly, the 76ers are a young team with an average age of only 25 years old, in the face of such a young and energetic team, it is not advisable to fight for speed when you come up, not to mention that the opponent does not have a center in the traditional sense, and the overall speed is much faster.
Willie?? Green, as the hardest player of the 76ers, came up directly to defend Xue Ding, and the height difference between the two was 5CM, but Green looked stronger.
Xue Ding slowly dribbled the ball, Ade mentioned the high post, and the defensive Smith also followed closely, the passing opportunity was not very good, and he had to be able to get an assist.
Thinking together, Xue Ding accelerated and directly got rid of Willy?? Green, straight inside, Ade took the defender and left the space.
So in the face of Xue Ding, who was indomitable and rushed over without slowing down at all, Smith quickly came over to make up for the defense, not afraid of being hit at all, and his attitude was very tough.
However, Xue Ding didn't jump at all, as soon as Smith made up for it, Xue Ding directly threw the ball in the direction of the basket, creating the illusion of shooting, and Smith flew to make up for it, which was useless.
Chandler, who was in the open space under the basket, jumped high and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.
The first assist was successfully received, Xue Ding raised his arm excitedly, and there were 19 more times, unconsciously silently reciting in his heart.
Williams holds the ball, is 188 tall, as the league's shortest two-way guard, averaging 14 points and 5 assists per game, the biggest feature is that he is fast and breakthrough-oriented.
As the team's main point guard, he has great power to handle the ball, so Williams directly chose to break through himself to open the 76ers' first offense.
William Moss's body was brisk, and the continuous change of direction from side to side directly made Batum's center of gravity unbalanced, and before others could react, he rushed to the inside line like a gust of wind.
Ade was stuck and couldn't move sideways to make up for it, but the inside line of the four big ones was also very crowded.
William Moss was smart enough to throw a shot and hit it steadily.
The first attack in the opening game, both sides were very smooth hands, 2:2, the two sides were tied.
Xue Ding dribbled past half court, observing the position of his teammates while dribbling, although Green kept provoking Xue Ding with physical contact, but people ignored it at all.
Ade pulled the person out again, and Xue Ding passed Willy with one acceleration?? Green, without any hesitation, no matter what Smith of 213 would do, didn't think about it at all, rushed up, jumped, grabbed the ball with one hand, and tried to split the basket.
Smith flew up without hesitation, not worrying at all that it would be a passive collision and a situation where it would be easy to get injured.
Xue Ding didn't adjust any direction at all, but when the two were about to collide, he easily dialed the ball to Chandler, who was empty again under the basket, who jumped up easily, caught the ball in the air, and won the domineering dunk.
Chandler is most familiar with this kind of air relay, and under the previous partner with Queen Bee Paul, after a game, an average of 8 air relays per game has become a scenery of the game.
Now this feeling seems to be back, Chandler is very happy, not only high-fived each other to celebrate, but also hugged Xue Ding to express his excitement.
This kind of mood, Xue Ding can understand very well, just like he has always been a brutal person, but for the sake of the overall consideration of the sphere, he still wants to go further, and he has also made adjustments and sacrifices in this regard.
Chandler is the same, when he was introduced by the Trail Blazers, he was introduced for his defensive ability, because as soon as the champion Lang Oden was scrapped in the season, the Trail Blazers' interior line was seriously in a hurry, but before this, Chandler played happy basketball, suppressing the opponent through defense and making the opponent make mistakes.
Then grab the rebound, under the leadership of Queen Bee, quickly attack, and always use the air relay to solve the problem easily.
But when it comes to the Trail Blazers, they rarely play the role of the offensive end, but after all, the offense is the easiest way to gain favor, so the opening is two successful aerial relays, which makes Chandler extremely excited.
Feeling the excitement and excitement of his teammates, Xue Ding also felt that the pressure in his heart was much less, and his obsession with completing the task was not as strong as at the beginning.
Williams passed the half, and his style of play was still very single, and as soon as the inside line opened up the space, he burst in directly, and stopped the jump shot with an easy hand.
In the face of this situation, Xue Ding was also very helpless, the opponent's defenders couldn't cause much trouble to themselves, and now Batum couldn't limit the opponent's main point guard.
Xue Ding knew that Batum's speed, bounce, and body were very good, but he couldn't prevent it, the other party was too fast, not to mention, the 47% mid-range shooting rate also made Batum suffer.
The two sides maintained their characteristics, and the score alternated upwards, and the time soon came to 6:44, 12:16, and the Trail Blazers still trailed by four points.
But Xue Ding, as the main point guard, was not in a hurry at all, and continued to suppress the speed on his side.
After half the court, the top of the arc fell into position, and the distance from outside the three-point line was still very far, and the teammates also pulled very open, giving the fans feelings, the overlord Xue was going to be heads-up.
In fact, it was also the case, Xue Ding's continuous shaking got rid of Willy?? Green, easily breaking through the first line of defense, accelerated in one step, walked in three steps, jumped, glided, and the ball passed to Chandler in the open space.
