Chapter 319: The counterattack begins

Dirk Young made a three-point shot, in fact, he didn't plan to shoot this ball, but fate turned out to be like this, Nowitzki's three-point shot went directly into the net.

"Heh, Nowitzki's three-point shot is enough, it's really uncommon to see him throw three points in previous games, and today's game is directly hollow as soon as he shoots." Seeing Nowitzki hit a three-pointer with a casual throw, Director Zhang couldn't be surprised.

Once again, the difference was widened.

The Mavericks hit two three-pointers in a row at the beginning of the fourth quarter, which was a big blow to the Trail Blazers, and then Xue Ding and Batum made consecutive three-pointers from the outside to chase back the score through three-pointers.

But Xue Ding's shooting percentage doesn't know what's going on, the game was good and bad, and when the fourth quarter entered the advertising pause, the Mavericks had a 101-83 lead over the Trail Blazers by 18 points, and in the first half of the fourth quarter, the Trail Blazers only scored 8 points.

Such poor offensive firepower made Pritchard extremely dissatisfied, and he angrily slammed the tactical board during the timeout.

At this time, the Mavericks fans at the American Airlines Center were already cheering to celebrate their team's victory, and the 18-point lead was still in the playoffs, and basically this game was no longer over.

During the pause, many Trail Blazers fans were ready for post-game commentary, but there were still some fans who believed that a miracle would happen, after all, they had Xue Ding here.

During the timeout, Pritchard repeatedly stressed to his players that they must stay focused, play more resolutely on the offensive end, and do not hesitate to focus on Nowitzki and Kidd on the defensive end, as long as the Mavericks lock these two guys, it will be difficult for them to make a difference.

Pritchard was very angry when he laid out his tactics, and the offense in the fourth quarter was really terrible, and the defense was not good.

The Mavericks, on the other hand, were much more relaxed, with an 18-point advantage, they did not arrange any tactics during the timeout, everyone was resting, and the team's assistant physician was giving several main players sitting and relaxing muscle relaxation massages.

After the timeout, Xue Ding dominated the ball possession of the Trail Blazers, and at this time, he had to step up.

Xue Ding took the ball over the half court and wanted to score a quick two points, but after breaking into the three-point line, he was immediately caught by the Mavericks' three-point report, and blocked Xue Ding's shooting space, Xue Ding glanced around, and then had to pass the ball out and throw it to Roy who ran over.

Roy catches the ball and immediately pulls it out, Bang! Strike iron again.

The first offense after the timeout failed to score, Roy was a little frustrated, did not fight for the rebound, and had retreated to his own half.

And Xue Ding was still under the basket at this time, Roy's shot missed, the ball bounced out of the frame, under the top defense of Nowitzki, Dampier and Terry, Xue Ding jumped high and snatched the ball from Dampier's hand, and then came to a violent dunk between Nowitzki and Dampier!

"Wow! Xue Ding's ball, it's amazing! In the CCTV studio, Director Zhang, who already felt that he had no chance of winning, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw Xue Ding snatching the ball from among the three and directly blocking Nowitzki and Dampier.

"My God, Xue Ding dunked the ball from Nowitzki and Dampier, and snatched the ball from Dampier to dunk, how difficult it is, this ball is the best five balls today, if the whole playoffs can be rated as a top five ball, Xue Ding's ball will definitely be selected, he is amazing......" Yang Rui was not to be outdone.

In Sina's live broadcast room.

After Xue Ding finished this shot, Xiao Xiong said excitedly: "Xue Ding faced the three-person bag, took the ball off the top of Dampier's head, and split the buckle with one hand between Nowitzki and Dampier!" The beginning of the counterattack!!!!!! ”

"The Trailblazers will win!"

"Xue Ding is about to break out!"

"Congratulations to the old driver and Dampier for the background wall."

"Xue Ding's ball boosts morale, there is still time, don't give up."

……

Fans in the comment section left messages.

The rebound in his hand was snatched away by Xue Ding, and there was a dunk when it was over, and it was still on his home court, Nowitzki could bear it, and Dampier couldn't bear it.

After Xue Ding dunked, as soon as he landed, Dampier turned around and retreated from Xue Ding, Xue Ding was defenseless, and was directly pushed off the court and hit the basketball hoop.

That's not all, Dampier also took the initiative to walk towards Xue Ding, with words in his mouth, and that posture seemed to beat Xue Ding.

Seeing this, the players on both sides immediately surrounded him, Blake rushed over first to protect Xue Ding's side, Roy and Batum also rushed over to stop between Dampier and Xue Ding, and there were some quarrels on both sides for a while.

"Beep beep!"

Seeing the players from both sides gathered around, the referee blew the whistle in succession to try to prevent further clashes, while the linesman also signaled the players on the benches of both teams not to enter the field.

In the end, under the coordination of the referee and a linesman, the players of both sides separated and temporarily returned to their benches.

The referee walked over to the technical stand and signaled to watch a replay to determine what kind of foul it was.

In the end, after video replay, the referee gave Dampier a first-degree malicious foul.

The Trail Blazers made two technical free throws and possessed the ball.

Dampier was ejected by the referee because of this foul and a previous technical foul.

After receiving such a penalty, the fans at the American Airlines Center were obviously dissatisfied with the referee's decision and booed continuously.

Dampier was still on his lips when he was ejected, and then returned to the locker room with security personnel.

Roy made two technical free throws, both of which were solidly hit.

The Trail Blazers then kicked off the sideline.

After Dampier was sent off, Carlisle was temporarily replaced by Brandon. Heywood, at this time, you can't let your inner line out of a vacuum, and you must always keep it at the height of the inner line.

Xue Ding opened the sideline ball, and Roy and Batum kept running to lead the defenders and try to catch the ball.

And Xue Ding drove the ball directly into Blake's hands, who beat Heywood, who had just come on the field in the penalty area, and turned to hook his hand to score.

It took just one round for the Trail Blazers to score six straight points and narrow the deficit to 12 points.

"Brandon, as long as we hold this round, we have a chance to further narrow the gap and stay focused, Tyson, you go to defend Dirk, you can't let him shoot so easily." On the way back, Xue Ding said to his teammates.
