On the evening of January 27, the game between the Trail Blazers and Clippers officially began. The two teams had faced each other before, and the Clippers had a hard time defeating their opponents in overtime. This time the situation is completely different, and the difficulty of winning increases exponentially.
With a jump ball in the middle circle, Jordan relied on the speed of the ball to hit the ball to Sun Yang. Sun Yang stabilized the ball before he started dribbling the ball. Tonight his partner became Fred Jones again, and it was the first time he was placed in the starting lineup. Dunleavy also wanted to try the effect of this combination, but he couldn't produce flowers even when the battalion was full of wounded soldiers. The other two main players of the Clippers are Thornton and Skinner.
The Trail Blazers' lineup is exactly the same as last time, with defenders Huang Manbaroi and Blake, center Oden, and forwards Batum and Aldridge.
With a jumping man like Fred Jones, Sun Yang can safely play point guard. His position has been changing over the past half season, but in fact, point guard is the most suitable.
A simple pick-and-roll, Sun Yang made a jump shot directly from the right side of the free throw line, taking the lead in opening up the situation.
The Trail Blazers gave the ball to Oden inside, but as soon as he took a dribble and raised his butt, the basketball was stolen by Jones. Intention can be calculated as unintentional, and Oden's center of gravity is so high, it is considered normal.
Sun Yang played quickly and played with Jones as easily as in a training match. Sun Yang wanted to assist him for a dunk, but after taking the last step, Jones threw the ball diagonally upward. Since he has thoughts of adult beauty, Sun Yang can accept it with peace of mind. After jumping high, he hit the rim with one arm like a heavy hammer. The loud bang was also very shocking.
After scoring 4 points in a row, the Clippers are still not satisfied. After defending against Roy and forcing him to shoot, Jordan protected the rebound. Sun Yang wanted to imitate the previous fast break but failed to start running. Just when he left the three-point line, the Trail Blazers thought it would be a positional battle. Sun Yang rushed into the inside again. This stop was very particular about the heat. Sun Yang used a small railing to dodge Oden's block, and made a reverse layup to score the ball.
? 6:0, the Clippers caught the Trail Blazers off guard as soon as they came up. Moreover, all 6 points of the Clippers were scored by Sun Yang. The Trail Blazers had studied Sun Yang's video data all night, but once they got on the court, they were still full of loopholes.
The Blazers didn't call a timeout because Roy shook his head on the bench. 6 points, I can't afford to lose. As expected, Roy responded quickly. His breakthrough was also of the wide-open and wide-close type. He passed Sun Yang and then rushed to the basket for a layup.
¡°That¡¯s the fun part of playing like this.¡± Sun Yang smiled slightly and quickly rushed forward after receiving Jones¡¯ serve. DeAndre Jordan and Thornton ran at the front, but there were people marking them around them, and the opportunity to make an alley-oop was lost. It doesn't matter, Sun Yang quickly dribbled the ball with his hips, taking Blake unprepared to push the ball out. The arc of the ball looks ridiculous, but is Sun Yang the kind of person who would joke around on the court?
Jordan ran counterattack to get out of Oden's defensive area, easily caught the ball in the air and put it into the hoop. It was so easy to play with Sun Yang. Sun Yang's previous fancy dribbling was all to attract attention, and being able to play such a classic cooperation also depends on tacit understanding.
8:2, the point difference is still 6 points. Every time the Trail Blazers scored a goal, the Clippers would retaliate. The 6-point advantage was maintained until the end of the first quarter. From this, we can see how anxious they were. During the intermission, the audience began to exhale loudly. Just now, they did not dare to be distracted at all because they would miss many wonderful shots.
30:22, today¡¯s score seems to have gone up to 110 points. Once the Clippers opened up, not many teams in the league could withstand it. This season, their total points scored ranked among the top three in the league. It was not until the downturn some time ago that they faded out of sight.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Sun Yang took a break. Roy scored 5 points in a row, and the point difference returned to 3 points. This is a very dangerous limit. The camera turned to Sun Yang's face familiarly, and the audience suddenly found that it was difficult to see emotions on his face. He was neither sad nor happy, and his eyes were not dull but as clear as an old man who had experienced mulberry picking. It was really scary.
If we say what has made the biggest improvement to Sun Yang over the years, it is not his physical fitness or his more comprehensive skills, but his ability to read the game and control the rhythm. No one can teach these things, you have to explore and experience them yourself, and they are more important than those external things, because when you can't run or jump high, you rely on experience and wisdom.
Sun Yang didn¡¯t panic at all when he was 3 points behind. He still had time to chat with Baron Davis next to him. Although the latter is wearing a suit, he has already been able to practice together. Davis did not choose to come back in this game, so the next game will be against the Bulls. Sun Yang's mind has already drifted to Rose. He wonders who will win and who will lose in this collision?
The situation on the court was changing rapidly. The Trail Blazers had just narrowed the point difference to 3 points, and the Clippers immediately played an 8:2 mini-game, widening the point difference to 9 points. The camera showed Sun Yang's face again and found that he was not watching the game at all. This gives you confidence, hurry upThe ship struggled for half a season and finally looked like a strong team.
Time passed quickly, a whistle blew, and the first half of the game was over. The Trail Blazers narrowed the point difference to 2 points with their last-minute efforts, and the score was 55:57.
?Perhaps the Clippers were too proud and relaxed, or maybe Trail Blazers head coach McMillan was confused in the locker room. At the beginning of the third quarter, they beat the Clippers 10-0, and Dunleavy quickly called a timeout. At 65:57, the Clippers fell behind by 8 points. They could no longer let Sun Yang stay off the court for a tea party, and there had to be a limit to the space given to the substitutes.
"I swear I will never leave the game if I don't lead by 10 points, and I will ensure that I complete the mission." Sun Yang playfully issued a military order before leaving. Dunleavy patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't underestimate the enemy, just perform well."
After resting for more than one session, Sun Yang was not afraid that he would not be able to take a break if he failed to complete the task. At worst, he would just keep playing. Taking the ball from Jones, Sun Yang quickly advanced to the frontcourt. Rushing to the left again, Sun Yang tore the Blazers' defense into a rotten fishing net with holes everywhere.
After Sun Yang came to the right corner, Roy, Blake and Spaniard Aldridge all came over to attack, trying to force him to make a mistake.
Sun Yang was also annoyed by being surrounded, but there was no room to pass the ball. His heart skipped a beat, his legs kicked off the floor violently, and his whole body floated out of bounds. I could shoot from a negative angle, too!
