CHAPTER XXV

Ding Wei grabbed the jersey that had been soaked in sweat and wiped it on his face hard, he never felt that he would be so tired when playing a ball.

If the Warriors are good at completely destroying their opponents' confidence with waves of outbursts, the Clippers may only need one ball to do it. Since the opening game was dominated by Paul and Griffin's aerial link, the 76ers instantly fell into passivity on the court, although they still scored a lot of points, but under the leadership of Chris Paul, the Clippers are like the turbocharged engine of a supercar on both offensive and defensive ends, stable but not lacking in explosiveness. Their rhythm didn't seem to be fast, like the map slowly unfolding in the hands of Jing Ke, who was assassinating Qin, but the moment the knife was really revealed, whether it was speed or momentum, it was enough to crush any opponent's will to resist in an instant. They seem to treat this game as a bullfighting show, allowing the 76ers players to pant and sweat like rain and try their best to spread their teeth and claws, they just elegantly wave the red cloth, lightly dodge the oncoming impact, but stab a sword in the opponent's vital point, and the 76ers' blood and momentum are constantly consumed and lost in this back-and-forth, and finally paralyzed into a lifeless rotten meat.

Ding Wei turned his head, his eyes locked on Paul who was holding the ball unhurriedly, just five minutes has allowed him to fully appreciate a real super point guard, how much of a bonus will it have to a team, teamwork, although it must be done by 5 people on the court, and even everyone on the bench, but the role of the point guard as a commander and glue can greatly reduce the difficulty of this cooperation, and when the point guard itself has the ability to destroy the opponent's defense by himself...... It was too beautiful for me to look at.

So far, the Clippers have made three three-pointers, all of which have been hit. Two of them were Paul assists J.J. Redick, who finishes the final blow, and the other is his own work. Before the game, Ding Wei thought that he knew enough about today's opponent, but when Redick led him to run all over the court, bypassing one cover after another and finally finding an opportunity to complete a one-hit kill, he really found the terrible thing about a mature system player, the opponent in front of him may not care who is defending him at all, he is just strictly implementing the tactics deployed by the coach, and then throwing the ball in when he should shoot, and in this team, there is just one as long as you have a chance, Whoever will pass the ball to you exactly what, and then the dreadfulness escalates again.

Redick started his run again, and hitting both shots gave him a lot of confidence, and although Ding Wei seemed to be a little more serious in his eyes than the players he usually played against him, it wasn't serious enough to prevent him from making shots, or that a slightly more intense defense would keep him focused and more likely to shoot from the field. After all, unlike most young geniuses who became famous, although he had already made a name for himself in college, in the end he still chose to play in Duke for 4 years, participate in the draft steadily, and then continue to work hard for his NBA career, now he is 30 years old, but he is still like when he was 20 years old, always shooting his basket conscientiously, no matter how provocative his opponents are, how his teammates stage various postures of the air catch Showtime, he is still so single-minded, Tonight's game looks like it's going to be a good night for him, because he can make many, many baskets......

However, when he ran to the position he was most familiar with, Paul's pass did not follow as much as the previous two times, but he did not stop there, but followed Paul's breakthrough pace and continued to fill in the area at the top of the arc - if Paul's breakthrough was blocked, he could neither complete a layup nor pass a threatening ball, he could also choose to make a safe pass, and Redick could catch the ball and shoot or reorganize an offense - which was also one of his jobs, and he did very well for any job.

"It's tough." Ding Wei had to sigh in his heart again, even if it was such an opportunity that was not an opportunity, the opponent did not intend to let it go, I don't know how Mr. Zhang Li would feel when he saw this ball.

In the end, Paul still lived up to expectations and passed a wonderful pass in the crowd, assisting Matt Barnes to hit a baseline shot, Ding Wei tilted his head to look at the scoreboard on his head, 15-26, and the point difference unknowingly reached more than double digits.

"It's not okay to go on like this," Ding Wei was very clear in his heart, his team was not good at this kind of dull battle in a stalemate situation, not to mention that now the opponent is ahead, maybe the next offense will immediately usher in a collapse section, he doesn't dare to guarantee that everyone can still have the motivation to face the Heat and the Warriors, "The more times like this, the more we must muster everyone's momentum." ”

Seeing that Tony Roten dribbled past half court, Ding Wei did not directly reach out for the ball as usual, but motioned for Nolens Noll to pick up the pick-and-roll, and he began to run around the cover like Redick.

"What is Ding doing? This is not a tactic we deployed before the game......" 76ers assistant coach Eske stared at the situation on the court with some nervousness, and asked Coach Brown next to him softly.

"It's normal for players to choose to make some changes on the court," Coach Brown still has an unwavering look, to be honest, he doesn't have much confidence in this game, the 76ers are not afraid of the Warriors, Suns, and other teams that are all soldiers, emphasizing speed and athleticism, at least they won't lose on the court, what they are most afraid of is either a rock-type team like the Jazz who is stronger than them on the inside, and can drag them into the quagmire just by pressing the rhythm, Either it's a team like the Spurs that is extremely capable of teamwork, and unfortunately, the Clippers seem to have a bit of a sideline with both, "Let's think this game is an experiment." ”

"You have a big heart." Asker couldn't help but say what was in his heart.

"Huh." Coach Brown laughed dryly and stared intently at the situation on the field, when Ding Wei had already run a big circle around the baseline and came to the other side.

"In the end, you still have to catch the ball and shoot......" Ding Wei's choice is what Redick is usually best at, and he is also very familiar with the way to deal with it, as long as he ensures that he does not lose his position, the opponent can only force the shot at most, as a shooter, he doesn't believe that Ding Wei's shooting rate will be higher than him.

"Tony, ball!" With Ding Wei's shout, Tony Rotten's ball was also delivered as soon as possible, Ding Wei glanced at the basket, and at this moment, the Clippers' basket was already messed up by a series of covering just now, and he immediately chose to shoot!

"Shhh

"It's all up to you, Nolens." Ding Wei looked at Nolens Knoll, who had already jumped high in the penalty area, grabbed the ball with one hand that was obviously off the basket in the surprised eyes of everyone, and then smashed it towards the basket!

Asker stared at two brass bell-like eyes, like a frightened owl.

The 76ers' bench stood up en masse as Nolens Knoll moved.

Duang! Nolens-Noll smashed the dunk with both hands like an oil hammer, venting the anger in his heart on the basket.

After a moment of silence, the visiting team's fan area suddenly erupted in a burst of cheers, although the number of people was small, but under the background of the silence around them, they instantly burst out of momentum.

"Oooooooooooo

Nolens-Noll rushed to Ding Wei and tried to celebrate with a bear hug, but was pushed away by the latter: "Defend and retreat!" ”

"Retreat, retreat!" Ding Wei shouted and rushed towards Paul, who had already received a quick serve from DeAndre Jordan, and the Clippers instantly turned into a white and blue torrent under his leadership, surging towards the 76ers' half.

"Tony's pinch! Hurry back for the others! Seeing that Paul had advanced to near the middle line, Ding Wei also hurriedly applied for reinforcements, he didn't think that he could defend Paul alone.

“Defense! Defense! Instead of sitting down, the 76ers' bench players remained on their feet and began to cheer on their teammates on the court, their roars mingling with the shouts of the fans.

Although Ding Wei and Tony Roten were still calm under the attack, Chris Paul's mood at this time was not as relaxed as his face showed, even if Ding Wei scored a near-quasi-triple-double in the last game, and even until the moment when Ding Wei passed the empty ball, although he was a little surprised, he did not see it as a key factor that could determine the outcome of this game in his heart, but Ding Wei's performance after the ball was scored was enough to make him vigilant, this rookie was not as easy to deal with as he expected.

Ultimately, the Clippers' offense ended with Griffin's jumper deflected near the free throw line, and the 24-second red light lit up almost at the same time as the ball hit the basket, and Henry Himes grabbed the pop-up basketball, and the 76ers held on to a nine-point deficit!

"Give me the ball!" Ding Wei almost snatched the ball from Henry Sims's arms, Redick tried to reach for the ball, but was shaken by him with a dribble from behind, and he was already flat in front of him when he shook off the defense!

"I'll make up for it! J.J. Fight Back on the Spot! Paul instantly realized the seriousness of the problem, if this goal is scored, I am afraid it will not be as simple as two points, it is a goal related to the momentum of both sides!

Looking at Paul who was rushing in, Ding Wei smiled slightly, and suddenly threw the ball into the air, which flew so high that almost everyone thought that it would definitely fly out of the field.

Paul had stopped the moment Ding Wei threw the ball, and he had a premonition that what was going to happen was not going to be good for them.

The ball didn't go out of bounds, but slammed into the rebound, where a long figure was leaping high, and in the next second, his fingers had touched the basketball, and although he was a little reluctant, he finally grabbed the ball and smashed his hands into the basket again!

"Nolens-" On the 76ers' bench, Embiid, who was in a suit and leather shoes, was holding a bottle of Gatorade in his hand, mimicking the tone of the DJ's commentary, and yelled at his teammates.

"Noll!"

With a roar from the 76ers bench, Nolens Noll had already completed the slam dunk, and he was so excited that he didn't care about cushioning his body on the basket, released the basket and pounced on Ding Wei, knocking him to the ground before Ding Wei's arms were extended.

Coach Doug Rivers looked at the 76ers players who were celebrating wildly, and he realized more clearly than everyone on the scene that the 76ers' counterattack momentum had been awakened by this rookie from China!
