Chapter 435 The Chicken Soup Master is now a nightmare man
Although Lillard's current perimeter defensive ability is much better than what Wang Zelin remembered, it is still not enough when facing Paul. The Clippers will attack him on this point.
At a 45-degree angle on the left wing, Paul and Griffin played a familiar pick-and-roll and suddenly rushed toward the bottom corner. Lillard was unable to catch up, allowing Paul to seize the opportunity.
There was a two-point position in the bottom corner. Paul decisively pulled up and shot almost from an open position, successfully hitting a goal.
2:2, the two sides tied.
"The tacit understanding between Paul and Griffin is really high!" Wang Meng sighed.
Zhang Lili followed: "Yes."
On the field.
"Be careful to switch defenses, don't let that guy get angry again..."
When Wang Zelin saw that Paul scored the first offense on the Clippers' side, he immediately remembered the unfriendly memories of the previous game and quickly gave some words to his teammates.
"clear."
Lillard nodded in response.
Trail Blazers offense.
The four of them opened up and emptied the Clippers' penalty area. Wang Zelin took advantage of the situation and walked to the basket to hit Jordan alone.
"Double-team him!"
On the sidelines, Clippers coach Doc Rivers shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Griffin immediately pounced on Wang Zelin.
Lillard looked at Wang Zelin and hesitated for a moment. When he saw the latter grabbing the ball with his right hand, he immediately gave the ball decisively.
"Snapped!"
The moment Wang Zelin grabbed the ball with one hand, Griffin and DeAndre Jordan had formed a double-team a mile away.
"Do you want to force it?"
Kenny Smith was a little confused.
This game was also broadcast live on TNT TV, and the on-site commentary was provided by the combination of Kenny Smith and Chris Webber.
"I don't think he is that reckless!"
Weber gave his own opinion.
In Weber's view, Wang Zelin's spirituality in organization and coordination is as good as his own back then. People of his own caliber will naturally not have low emotional intelligence. He should...
The next moment, a scene on the field made him shut his mouth and look helpless.
I saw Wang Zelin receiving the ball with one hand, and then making a fierce force.
There was a sound of "Bang!", and it was obvious to the naked eye that Jordan couldn't hold it anymore. He retreated and turned around to take action.
In the next moment, Wang Zelin turned sideways and hit the basket with a swing of the ball, without caring about the feelings of Griffin behind him.
Stop looking down on others!
Griffin roared in his heart, his feet jumped up like springs, followed by Wang Zelin, and he stretched out his right hand in an attempt to block the shot.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and the Clippers' basket was exploded again.
4:2, the Trail Blazers lead away from home.
Griffin's take-off timing was accurate and his shot-blocking timing was timely, but he ignored another problem.
That means his wingspan is not enough!
"Give up, Blake, with your short hands, you will never be able to beat me once in your life!"
After landing, Wang Zelin lost any of the friendliness he had during the pre-match banter and started laughing mercilessly.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Griffin's entire face turned dark, and he watched Wang Zelin go away gloomily.
"Hard!"
Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.
"It's indeed tough! It's hard to imagine that the king's dominance has reached such an extent!"
Wang Meng looked incredulous.
When the Clippers attack, Paul still holds the ball.
This time, Paul had just passed halftime, and Lillard immediately pounced on him and stayed close to him.
The two struggled for a while, but Paul still couldn't get rid of Lillard. He happened to see Jamal Crawford empty and immediately passed the ball.
On the right wing, Jamal Crawford controls the ball.
At this time, Trail Blazers small forward Batum stepped down from the right three-point line to cover.
"Duang~"
Jamal Crawford took off quickly, but unfortunately he missed the shot and the basketball bounced out of the frame.
"Come on baby!"
Wang Zelin moved first and grabbed the rebound over Griffin and DeAndre Jordan.
As soon as he landed, Jordan and Griffin immediately pounced on him and trapped him.
But at this time, Wang Zelin used his legs for the second time, jumped up again, and threw with one hand in the air towards Aldridge outside the three-point line on the left wing.
The fast-moving small forward Matt Barnes quickly rushed over and defended Aldridge closely. The latter immediately passed the ball from the former's head to Lillard, who was two steps away from the three-point line at the top of the arc.
After Lillard received the ball, he ran all the way, but because Paul was chasing after him, Lillard did not choose to do it himself, but passed it back to Matthews on the other side.
At this time, Paul was the only one in the Clippers' frontcourt who rushed back and forth in time to guard against Lillard and naturally had no time to take care of Matthews.
Matthews took an open three-point shot, and the ball came.
7:2, the Trail Blazers lead by 5 points.
"The Trail Blazers' tactics of one inside and four outside today was surprisingly effective!" Weber said with a smile.
"This tactic is a great test of the inside players' speed and awareness of assisting in defense. If it is not done well, the opponent will frequently make successful cuts... Fortunately, Wang Zelin has done a good job in this job!" Kenneth Smith said.
Clippers attack.
Paul no longer holds the ball too much. Instead, he and other teammates all open up the space, and Jamal Crawford holds the ball instead, and the latter attacks first.
Jamal Crawford, who had ample room to operate this time, once again showed the world his rich and virtuous singles skills. After continuously moving his crotch backwards, he suddenly made a coquettish backhand pass and broke through Matthews's goal.
Defending on the outside, he went straight to the Trail Blazers penalty area.
But at this time, Wang Zelin, the last patron saint, is still under the basket. Will Jamal Crawford choose to challenge Wang Zelin?
Of course NO!
Under the basket, Wang Zelin saw Matthews' defense miss and immediately dropped Jordan and tried to defend Jamal Crawford.
After the latter took a few steps in, he suddenly braked one step outside the paint area and took a slightly backward mid-range shot.
"Whoosh!"
Successful hit.
"Yes!"
Everyone on the Clippers bench saw Jamal Tiger's singles skills and stood up to cheer.
The score on the field became 4:7, and the Clippers were still one three-pointer away from recovering the score.
This is when Lillard advanced to the top of the arc, and Wang Zelin suddenly withdrew from the penalty area and reached the high post.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! High pick and roll?
Jordan's reaction speed is also very fast, and this guy has no other skills. His running and jumping ability is definitely the first among many insiders in the league.
Sure enough, after Wang Zelin stood high and received the ball, Lillard turned around and ran from the three-point line to a low corner. At the same time, the other three teammates also quickly started running according to the tactical requirements.
Humph, you haven’t been guarded by me!
Jordan, who was guarding Wang Zelin, was slightly happy in his heart, but on the surface he remained serious, with his hands spread out, always wary of any move by the former.
Time passed quickly and the ball was still in Wang Zelin's hands.
In the live broadcast booth of the Imperial TV station, whether it was Zhang Lili or Wang Meng on the scene, or the Chinese fans watching the game on the TV on the other side of the ocean, the sense of urgency in their hearts became stronger and stronger.
Move quickly! Move quickly!
Time is running out, move quickly...
At this time, the situation inside and outside the court, to use a popular metaphor, is a typical "the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is."
Fortunately, Wang Zelin on the court seemed to hear the voices of countless expectants, and finally made a move when the offensive round entered the single-digit countdown.
He took back his high-flying posture, turned 90 degrees to the right, and hit Jordan with his back.
"Bag……"
Doc Rivers suddenly stopped mid-shouting.
Wang Zelin is still far away from the basket, and the offensive threat is far from being in the paint area. He is willing to trust Jordan's defense again.
"Bang! Bang..."
During the successive collisions, Jordan looked uncomfortable and stepped back step by step.
But no matter what, before the five-second back-up violation was about to come, he still took it and prevented Wang Zelin from entering the penalty area.
"Oops! We're going to break the rules, make a choice quickly..."
In the live broadcast booth, Zhang Lili was so anxious that he almost jumped.
Another second and it will be a violation.
However, Wang Zelin certainly would not make such a low-level mistake. He used all his strength in the final collision, took Jordan back a big step, then pulled him back, turned over and shot a jumper.
"Don't even think about it!"
Jordan had already been mentally prepared. After being hit, he immediately jumped forward. The two were so close that although the shot was not blocked, it still caused great interference.
I don’t believe you can still play this kind of ball!
Jordan was convinced of this idea. After Wang Zelin took the shot, he immediately turned around and shouted: "Blake, pay attention to the rebound!"
And it was at this turn that he saw the most unforgettable scene in his life.
And what he didn't notice was that Wang Zelin behind him had a contemptuous smile on his face ever since he took action.
The other end.
Two points from the bottom corner of the left wing, Griffin heard Jordan's voice, swiped his right hand, stuck Aldridge behind him, and quickly ran towards the basket.
In fact, Jordan didn't need to remind him. He could tell with his years of rebounding sense that Wang Zelin's shot was too powerful. Not to mention it bounced off the basket, it might even hit the timer a little above the basket.
.
You guys have this day too!
As Griffin ran, he fantasized in his mind: If Wang Zelin's ball really hits the timer, based on the opponent's name, O'Neal's top five embarrassing materials in the next issue will not be able to escape.
The next moment, Wang Zelin's shot was indeed too high. Although it did not hit the timer, it did hit the backboard a little higher, far away from the rim.
This time I’ll see who can compete with me!
Griffin jumped up with excitement on his face.
At this moment, he smiled extremely brightly.
I have even thought about how to dribble the ball in a coquettish way after grabbing the rebound.
At this moment, a huge figure appeared behind Griffin, completely covering him.
When he looked at the other Clippers players on the court, they all had horrified expressions on their faces.
However, Griffin only had eyes for the rebound at this time and did not notice anyone coming behind him. He even realized that his situation was very bad.
"Bang!"
Griffin stretched out his hands and successfully touched the ball, but before he could rejoice, a huge force came from behind.
With a snap, Griffin saw a familiar palm appear above the basketball... It was a big yellow slap!
Wang Zelin!?
How could he be in this position?
As for DeAndre, didn't he do a good job of blocking?
Yes, Jordan really didn't have time to position himself properly, because he was completely immersed in the joy of guarding Wang Zelin, and immediately after landing, he chose to remind his teammates to grab rebounds.
And this happened to fall into Wang Zelin’s plan!
Because from the beginning to the end, Wang Zelin had no intention of making this shot. His real purpose was to make a McGrady-style self-throw and dunk!
Who said big men can't play as coolly as outsiders? Today Wang Zelin wanted to show it off to everyone.
After he passed DeAndre Jordan, ran all the way to the basket and took off behind Griffin, everyone couldn't sit still.
"Oh! Shet!!!"
“Throw yourself and buckle!!!”
"This is the real purpose of that boy!"
Weber was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear and jumped up from his position with excitement.
"Self-directed and self-deducted? It's really bold..."
Kenny Smith's eyes were also full of surprise.
No one expected that in that short moment, Wang Zelin would actually think of a way to break Jordan's high-intensity defense.
At this time, everyone's eyes were fixed on Trail Blazers No. 36 on the court, not daring to blink for a moment.
"impossible!"
Griffin had a look of despair on his face. He had already foreseen his own ending. How much he hoped that the arm that suddenly appeared in front of him was fake, but the fact was...
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin behind him made a move, and the possession of the ball changed instantly.
Before it was over, Wang Zelin's right hand stretched out from bottom to top, must have pressed on the basketball, then raised the ball, and finally slammed it into the basket.
"Give me~get in!"
Wang Zelin shouted loudly.
There was a sudden roar behind him, which made Griffin, whose center of gravity was already unstable, suddenly lose control of his body and fall heavily to the floor.
"boom!"
The sound of smashing the frame was earth-shattering!
Griffin, who fell at Wang Zelin's feet, saw this scene completely and was completely stunned.
"It's over! Everything is over..."
Next to him, in front of the Clippers bench, Doc Rivers saw the goal, shook his head and sighed.
Immediately afterwards, the look he looked at Wang Zelin became extremely complicated.
This Chinese boy is like Griffin, no, it should be said to be the nightmare of everyone on the Clippers. Even though he thought of all the ways to deal with it before the game, when it came to the game, he found that all the methods were in vain.
of.
Since last season, the Clippers and Trail Blazers have lost and lost, but for some reason, Wang Zelin's impression on Doc Rivers, the master of chicken soup, is not only unforgettable, but also becomes more and more profound.
Today, Doc Rivers feels that he has absolutely no way to deal with Wang Zelin. He doesn't know how to restrict such a guy.
…
…
After the game, Wang Zelin made 17 of 24 shots and had a double-double of 31 points and 16 rebounds.
The biggest highlight of tonight's game is in the first quarter, and the biggest turning point is also in the first quarter.
It’s not about the score between the two sides after the first quarter, but in terms of morale. The morale gap between the two sides after the first quarter can be described as a world of difference.
The reason is that it started when Wang Zelin defeated the Clippers' inside duo 1-on-2.
