However, after the timeout, the Trail Blazers made a service error, and the angry Pritchard jumped to his feet.

The Mavericks attacked, and Kidd advanced with the ball.

Now the Mavericks have a lot of shooters, Nowitzki and Terry and others are very outstanding in their shooting ability, the Mavericks have a two-point shooting rate of 46% and a three-point shooting rate of 37%, which is a terrifying shooting rate.

Although the outside world doesn't think that shooting can win a championship, Carlisle has always been unmoved.

Xue Ding defends Kidd, who is averaging 10.1 points, 7.8 assists and 5.6 rebounds per game this season, and is a veritable brain of the Mavericks.

Xue Ding's defense against Kidd has two main points, one is the 3-point shot, and the other is his passing.

Kidd's three-point shooting rate this season is as high as 43%, and his passing is much higher than Xue Dingyou.

Xue Ding was very impressed with Kidd in his previous life, and he remembered Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals in May 2011.

The Mavericks beat the Thunder, and with one minute left in overtime, the Mavericks and the Thunder were tied at 105.

Kidd handed the ball to Dirk, went to the right wing to receive Dirk's return pass, and raised his hand to make a shooting feint.

Westbrook, the thunderbolt genius, was sensitively aware of what he was going to do.

Wei Shao took a step, flew up, reached out to seal the cover, and then he found that he had flown over.

Kidd wasn't that fast, not that high, but he knew he didn't have to, his feet sucked up the ground, made a shooting feint, and with old spicy and precision, he completed the four or two thousand pounds of young blood.

He bowed his head past Westbrook's jumping body, and then, raising his hand, he shot a steady three-pointer, and pierced the hearts of Oklahoma City fans with precision.

At 108-105, the Mavericks took the lead.

The rest of the time, he grabbed two backcourt rebounds and made two free throws to settle the game.

That game gave the Mavericks a 3-1 lead in the playoffs and smashed the Thunder's two home courts.

Thunder Wei Shao was immature in front of old Kidd.

Kidd is not a master shooter, shooting less than 70 percent from the free-throw line in the first three years of his career, and just 40 percent from the field in his NBA career. If you analyze it technically, his arm length is not good enough, his shot is not fast enough, and he does not have the speed of the young people of Ross, Westbrook, and Brooks.

But miraculously, since the 2004-05 season, his three-point percentage has been amazing.

As recently as the 2009-10 season, he made the third-most three-pointers in the league at a career-high 43 percent from the field.

Since 2008, Kidd has shot two-thirds of his shots in the Mavericks, and he doesn't have the speed and explosiveness needed to break through, shake, get rid of, and quickly cut into the air, and he doesn't have the speed and explosiveness needed to create three-point opportunities for himself, and he's almost 38 years old.

And throughout his life, he rarely thought about creating scoring opportunities for himself.

Xue Ding still remembered that the Mavericks played the Trail Blazers and the Thunder in the past two rounds of the series against the Trail Blazers, and he knew that the opponent would relax him, so he saw the stitches, and to the Thunder, he knew Westbrook's young and anxious, so he threw out a feint of four or two thousand pounds, smart, judging the situation, and judging the timing, relying on these, Kidd didn't even need to "create" a shooting gap, but "found" a shooting gap.

Back on the field.

Kidd handed the ball to Butler, who was 2.01 meters tall and Batum was on the side.

Butler was a scoring wing capable of catching and shooting; can't be qualified for the main offensive role, can't break through at all, when a core Butler can't do it, Butler can do fake moves, take the ball and Batum and start to turn his back.

Seeing Butler being blocked by Batum outside the free throw line, Xue Ding felt very stable.

Butler's offense is average, while Batum's defense is good, Batum's ball quotient is very high, as long as he is healthy, although he can't prevent a small forward like Durant James, it is not difficult to prevent an average small forward.

The reason why he was not outstanding in his previous life was because there were too many outstanding small forwards, James, Durant, Leonard, Paul George.

How do you tell him to defend himself?

Xue Ding glanced back at Kidd, who was frowning.

Xue Ding chatted with Kidd: "Jason, how will you attack later?"

Kidd was happy when he heard Xue Ding's words.

"Xue, we'll give the ball to Dirk later."

As soon as Kidd finished speaking, Xue Ding saw that Butler had indeed given the ball to Nowitzki at the free-throw line.

"Oh? We've got Tyson, and we're not going to let Dirk score easily. ”

"Really? I think Dirk is more powerful, and Tyson can't stop it. ”

Kidd couldn't shake off Xue Ding's defense, and the two kept forcing to talk.

Suddenly, Kidd stopped.

What's going on?

Xue Ding looked sideways at Nowitzki, the driver had already used the golden rooster independence at the free throw line!

The boxing king tried his best to block it, but it didn't help!

"Huh!"

14 to 4.

"I'll just say Dirk is better, rookie." Now, Nowitzki really can't defend himself.

Xue Ding shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can't stop me." ”

Before Kidd could reply, Xue Ding received the ball and sprinted directly.

The Trail Blazers receive the ball and push the counterattack directly!

"Whoa"

Xue Ding rushed to the front court and rushed directly to the basket, and a flying layup scored two points.

The speed of the Mavericks is still on the slow side, and they are not adapted to this rhythm of attack!

The reason for suffering a small injury, Xue Ding did not deduct blindly.

14 to 6.

Kidd was depressed, Xue Ding was right, he couldn't stop it.

This goal made Xue Ding ready to start his solo mode!

Xue Ding is on the field, and when he wants to attack with the ball, he is basically very self-conscious.

After the Mavericks passed, Kidd gave the ball to Nowitzki, and the driver's Golden Rooster Independence finally didn't score.

Xue Ding's next breakthrough shot was given to Batum on the outside, and Batum shot three points in the space outside the three-point line!

14 to 9.

Kidd then used the off-ball screens of his teammates to bypass Xue Ding's defense at the top of the arc and run out of space!!

"Huh!"

Three-point shots are also in color.

17 to 9!

However, then Xue Ding immediately broke through the basket and scored and caused Nowitzki's defensive foul, playing a 2+1, Xue Ding scored 5 points and 1 assist in a row, helping the Trail Blazers bite the score.

Xue Ding is mainly attack-oriented, and passing is assisted!

If you basically take the ball, you want to break through, and Kidd is broken by him.

After a few rounds, the Mavericks' defensive focus shifted to Xue Ding.

This is a natural thing, it's not that the Mavericks don't watch out for Roy, but now there are rumors in the NBA that Xue Ding's ball dominance attributes are very sufficient, and sometimes even Roy is not in his eyes.

The Mavericks players also think that Xue Ding, a rookie, wants to seize the opportunity to play good statistical performance.

Generally, rookies are like that.

Especially rookies with good data will feel that they are amazing and can't wait to get on the top.

Xue Ding wants to perform so much today, but he actually thinks that Yaya has come to watch the game again today, and he just wants to increase his personal performance.

In order to gain the worship of his wife, Xue Ding will be very motivated.

The Trailblazers players were also a little surprised by Xue Ding's performance today, but in fact, it was nothing, his teammates saw that he was smooth, and he would not have any opinions, and Roy also took the initiative to make him a ball.

Since his teammates were willing to cooperate, Xue Ding began to be unkind.

At the end of the first quarter, Xue Ding scored 14 points on 6-of-9 shooting, 14 points on 5-of-10 shooting in the second quarter, and 28 points at halftime!

The Trail Blazers tied the score in the final minute of the first quarter.

By the end of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers had a 13-point lead at 57-44.

Xue Ding is in good shape, and the Mavericks can't beat the current pioneers.

Kidd looked at Xue Ding speechlessly.

It's completely unstoppable. If you want to talk about "The Brutality of the NBA" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
