"Oh, God, No. 0 of the Trail Blazers made a three-pointer at the buzzer, poor Los Angeles people!"
"The point difference is back to 5 points!!!"
Charles Barkley burst into laughter.
"This goal boosted morale so much that it announced that the Clippers' previous efforts were all in vain." Kenny Smith said.
"Damien!"
"Damien!"
"Damien!"
"..."
The atmosphere in the Rose Garden Arena completely exploded.
On the other side, Clippers captain Chris Paul put his hands on his hips and looked at Lillard who was celebrating with helplessness.
What are these things?
"Brother, great job!"
Wang Zelin rushed up and shouted excitedly, placing a pair of devil's claws on Lillard's head.
Not to mention, this little head feels quite sexy to the touch.
"hey-hey!"
Although he didn't know where Wang Zelin learned this weird way of celebrating, Lillard always felt something was wrong and quickly moved away from Zhelin's hand.
"Ouch! Damien's step-back three-pointer was like a sharp sword stabbing into the heart of the Clippers!" the Trail Blazers commentator yelled crazily, with a slight tremor in his voice. , showing his inner excitement.
City of Angels.
"well!"
“God has truly blessed Portlanders.”
"You can score such a difficult three-pointer!"
Clippers fans who were watching the game in real time let out a sigh.
There is no doubt that Lillard's three-pointer just now was definitely a fairy ball level of difficulty, and it fully reflected four words - shrimp and pig heart.
You know, Lillard is being guarded personally by Chris Paul, the undisputed number one point guard in the league.
Just last year in the 2011-12 season, Paul was selected to the NBA All-NBA Team. He was also selected to the All-Defensive First Team in the first team.
The double-team alliance with excellent offense and defense is a giant!
As a result, it became a background board...
Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro shook his head. The situation was beyond his expectations.
Originally, his important target tonight was the Chinese player Wang Zelin. Just as he thought before, Wang Zelin had a mediocre performance in the first half.
But now, another potential rookie of the Trail Blazers suddenly stepped forward to break this situation.
Only then did people suddenly remember...
The Trail Blazers not only have a super rookie like No. 36, but the other No. 0 is also not bad.
Lillard's sudden force caught the Clippers off guard, but time waited for no one. After a short rest, players from both sides were ready to take the field.
"The Clippers will definitely increase their defensive intensity in the fourth quarter. Everyone must be mentally prepared, do you understand?" Coach Terry said to his disciples.
"Haha! I really hope that my opponent's strength can be greater, so that I can have more fun!" Wang Zelin replied with a crazy expression.
"Coach, we are not vegetarians!"
Batum replied brazenly.
Obviously, after playing against a strong team like the Clippers, sparks have appeared on both sides.
The Trail Blazers, who suffered a defeat last time, are now in the lead, and everyone is inevitably feeling proud.
"Then go on the field and prove it to me with your actions!"
Coach Terry nodded. Young people should have the vigor to "dare to change the sun and moon into a new sky!"
Back in the fourth quarter, the Trail Blazers served from the bottom line.
15 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds...this is Lillard's data in the first three quarters.
Batum’s 17 points were second only to Wang Zelin’s 25 points.
Tonight, many players broke out in the Trail Blazers, but it was Aldridge who was the strongest, who fished throughout the game and had a mediocre desire to score. He scored 10 points and 5 rebounds on 5-of-7 shooting.
But people probably enjoy it too.
After all, whoever tries it knows the joy of fishing. Aldridge, who has experienced it many times this season, hopes to have more opportunities like this.
Let’s get back to the game.
The Clippers' defensive intensity suddenly increased. All players worked hard to defend. Paul even defended Lillard closely from the backcourt. His concentration on the game almost reached the level of the playoffs.
Fortunately, some of the Blazers players who were mentally prepared as expected by Coach Terry suddenly accelerated, instead of choosing to play positional battles slowly as before.
Lillard took the lead and before his teammates were fully positioned, he forced himself to pull up and shoot a three-pointer... which hit.
The Trail Blazers lead by 8 points!
Lillard has been feeling hot for a long time.
The Clippers attacked and Paul broke through and wandered uncertainly at the free throw line. However, intimidated by Wang Zelin who was sitting under the basket, he was eventually forced out of the paint area and missed a close throw.
Aldridge took the initiative to help block Jordan, and Griffin and Wang Zelin took off at the same time.
In terms of rebounding sense and jumping speed, Griffin is definitely the best in the league, but he loses because of...short hands.
Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound before Griffin, but the Clippers were already prepared at this time. They retreated very quickly and failed to complete the fast break. In the end, the ball was in the hands of Matthews, who shot a one-step shot from the three-point line.
In the next few minutes, the two teams fought hard from the outside. The breakthrough experts of Paul and Lillard rarely entered the penalty area and ended the battle outside.
Although Lillard couldn't handle Paul on the defensive end, he relied on his excellent form tonight and was fully fired up, and he was evenly matched with Paul, a double-team point guard.
In the 7th minute of the game, Paul misplaced his defense against Batum, showing what it means to be bold. After succeeding in a gambling steal, he quickly broke into the frontcourt and chased a three-pointer, chasing the point difference to one point.
92:91!
"Beep!"
Lillard controlled the ball past halftime, and the Trail Blazers called a timeout.
"Wang, what did you tell me just now? Why can't you attack when you get on the court?" Coach Terry pointed at Wang Zelin and scolded.
"Ahem, mine, mine!"
After the tactical cough, Wang Zelin took the blame on himself.
In fact, you can’t blame him, life is just too rough...
No wonder the later Wolfberry Mamba was always addicted to it and could not extricate itself.
"You can't blame Wang for this, Coach. I was the one who got in trouble just now..." Lillard looked up, his expression slightly embarrassed.
So far in the fourth quarter, Lillard has scored 7 points, and the total score has reached 22, but he only got it with 8 shots.
The fiery touch made Lillard sink into a state of continuous shooting. In addition, Wang Zelin saw that his friends rarely had such a living situation, and he was willing to be a good guy for once and didn't ask for the ball in the paint.
So when Lillard's condition gradually declined, no one on the court noticed it. On the contrary, Coach Terry off the court was keenly aware that something was wrong.
"King, next you need to strengthen your internal offensive, increase your deterrence, and stop being sneaky..."
After a scolding from Coach Terry, the game continued.
Trail Blazers offense.
"Hey man, how was your rest?"
Wang Zelin, who was low on the right wing and was about to take his position, suddenly asked when he saw Jordan approaching again.
"Rookie, what are you trying to do?" When Wang Zelin saw him like this, Xiao Qiaodan felt panicked and couldn't help but ask.
"Hahaha, you will know soon!"
Wang Zelin laughed and said, he took the initiative to get close to Jordan and secretly supported Jordan's waist. The latter didn't have time to "Fake", so I turned around and entered the penalty area.
At the top of the arc, Lillard instinctively raised his hand, and the basketball pierced the sky and headed straight for the basket.
"Bang!"
Wang Zelin pulled the basket with both hands, and the basket wailed.
94:91, the Trail Blazers lead by three points at home.
"You are so mean!"
Little Jordan, who was belatedly aware of this, was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and now he was furious.
"Thank you for the compliment!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
When Jordan's confused black face appeared on the big screen, the entire Rose Garden Arena burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! This expression is so funny. I have to say that Jordan is quite talented as a comedian!"
The home commentator chuckled and joked.
The Clippers were attacking, and Jordan, who was being set up, got his head over his head. After grabbing the position in the low post, he was ready to catch the ball.
Paul was a little surprised, but passed the ball anyway.
"I heard that this summer he specially practiced back hitting. Let me see..."
This scene on the street left Paul at a loss what to say.
Leaning on Wang Zelin and arching twice, Jordan turned sideways and threw the ball in the direction of the basket, and almost hit the top edge of the backboard.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
There was another burst of laughter at the scene.
"Man, I think you should go get some training like Olajuwon!"
Wang Zelin, his opponent, couldn't stand it any longer, so he kindly raised his sword.
"How do you know I haven't been there?"
It’s just that after two days, I couldn’t stay any longer.
Jordan muttered and quickly returned to defense.
It was Wang Zelin's turn to attack.
"Roar!!!!"
The head-to-head fighting immediately caused the Rose Garden Arena to boil.
The concept of "center first" has not completely dissipated in this era, and many people still firmly believe that this is a league dominated by big men.
It's just that there have been too few outstanding big men in recent years.
Receive the ball in the low post and dribble once, turn right with your right foot as the axis, take a long step into the paint with your left foot, lean forward, and send the ball out with your right hand.
Jordan moved sideways and jumped with all his strength to block the shot, but his fingertips were still a little short.
"Uh-huh!"
"If they can't call you, I think you can come to me to practice during the offseason." Wang Zelin said with a smile.
This was just a joke, but he still underestimated Jordan's brain.
"Well, I'll think about it after I get back."
Little Jordan actually thought about it seriously.
Damn it!
"Brother, I was kidding!"
When the Clippers attacked, Willie Green hit a three-pointer from the left side of the outside line. The basketball hit the basket and bounced high. DeAndre Jordan and Griffin rushed directly to flank Wang Zelin.
"drink!"
Unfortunately, this still cannot stop Wang Zelin's rise.
With a roar, Wang Zelin jumped up and held the defensive rebound above Jordan and Griffin.
At this moment, Jordan and Griffin are like pendants on Wang Zelin. Not only do they not hinder, but they are an embellishment.
"Beep!"
The referee blew the whistle and Jordan committed a defensive foul behind his back.
It can be clearly seen from the replay on the big screen that when Jordan was rushing for the rebound just now, Jordan was directly hung on Wang Zhelin's right arm.
There's nothing wrong with this whistleblower.
But for the Clippers, it is undoubtedly bad news.
With 4 and a half minutes left, the Clippers were 5 points behind, but the team's starting center committed five fouls.
If Jordan commits six fouls, no one on the Clippers can restrict Wang Zelin in the paint.
After catching the dead ball, Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro decided to take Jordan off first.
Now we can only watch Paul and Griffin first.
"Uh-huh!"
"Uh-huh!"
Wang Zelin did not repeat the same mistake and made two free throws steadily. His personal data reached 31 points and 15 rebounds.
The Clippers were 7 points behind!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch..."
A tsunami of deep cheers resounded throughout the Rose Garden Arena. More than 19,000 fans at the scene fell into madness, and the suffocating roars directly hit the Clippers players.
"Tonight, the Clippers are destined to sink in Portland!"
"I said!"
Wang Zelin ended the penalty and stared at Paul fiercely.
As a master of trash talk, Paul said decisively: "You won't get what you want!"
"Come on then, I really want to know whether the reasons for basketball mentioned by Jews back then were true?"
Paul's face was extremely stiff. It was impossible for this rookie to not understand that it was the pain of his life.
But he still dares to...
With heavy breathing, Paul shouted: "Blake, serve!"
Paul took the ball to the frontcourt to signal his teammates to pull away, and faced Lillard in the top arc and started dribbling quickly.
When the fans at the scene saw this scene, they understood that this was a direct confrontation between Paul and Lillard, and immediately began to boo!
"Hush! Hush..."
Seeing that Paul was about to beat him alone, Lillard exhaled heavily and concentrated on defense.
For a league giant like Paul who is good at both offense and defense, scoring is as easy as eating and drinking.
Lillard knows that he may not be able to impose many restrictions on Paul, but he still chooses to confront his opponent.
Just when Lillard was concentrating on guarding against Paul's dangerous shots, the latter suddenly moved.
breakthrough!
Lillard quickly moved sideways, ready to stick up, but was blocked by Ronny Turiaf
Wang Zelin quickly came out to defend, and Paul came to the middle distance, forming a small hit with a big one!
After several cross-step dribbles, Paul first took a step back, and suddenly the ball slammed forward and passed under Wang Zelin's crotch.
"oh!!!"
The fans at the scene exclaimed.
When it comes to the fight between the small and the big, Paul can boldly say, "Everyone here is a younger brother!"
After passing through someone with his crotch crotched, Paul turned around next to Wang Zelin, caught the basketball, and jumped up...
The humiliated Wang Zelin's face changed color, he actively turned around and jumped to block the shot.
Paul moved around in the air, stole the block, switched hands for a layup, and hit the ball on the board.
98:93, the score difference returned to 5 points.
emm...another damn 5 points!
"Rookie, this is the price for irritating me!"
After landing, Paul spat a trash talk.
"Really!"
Wang Zelin grunted, lowered his head to pick up the ball and sent it to Lillard.
"Man, give it to me later!"
"ok!"
Lillard whispered back.
In the low post on the right, Wang Zelin is in position, and his teammates are already passing the ball.
In the past time, Wang Zelin has fully proved his ability to break double teams, whether he is strong or passing the ball, there is nothing he can do against him with quick penetration.
So this time it was Ronny Turiaf who defended Wang Zelin alone, and the outcome was predictable.
After arrogantly knocking Roni Turiaf away, Wang Zelin completed a dunk from behind.
"Chris, your Clippers are nothing more than that!"
"Oh, I almost forgot, there has always been only one king in Los Angeles, and the Clippers... have always been just green leaves!"
After completing the attack, Wang Zelin didn't even look at his defender, staring fiercely at Paul not far away.
