NBA: I can see real-time shooting percentage

Chapter 109

The Clippers played a small climax in the third quarter, which indirectly offset the explosive data from the Rockets Harden.

During this period, James Harden scored 29 points and 36 assists in 6 minutes of playing. It can be said that he dominated the game tonight.

And Qin Ming, who had been being targeted in the first three quarters, led the team to play their own performance and climax at the end of the third quarter.

Successive three-pointers from the outside made the Rockets lose their rhythm for a while.

In fact, they performed almost perfectly in the first half without any problems, and they came to the second half with a difference of more than ten points.

But Qin Ming's outburst made it difficult for the Rockets to parry.

Leonard scored 20 points in the first half, and he took most of the Clippers' shots. He returned his 70.00% shooting rate.

Qin Ming scored 13 points and 6 assists in the first half. The three giants scored in double figures in the first half, and Lu Wei and Morris also scored 10 points and 9 points respectively.

With such terrifying data, in the first half alone, the Clippers had opened up a 20-point gap, while the Mavericks had only James Harden and Westbrook scoring in double figures, and everyone else collectively misfired.

The fans at the scene also saw that this was an unfair game, and the opponent's players really crushed themselves.

In the fourth quarter, James Harden went into battle. He faced the Big Three alone and looked a little lonely.

Westbrook may be behind him, but he is definitely not the one who can support James Harden to the top.

But who this person is may be a question that has plagued the Rockets for a long time.

Let James Harden single-core lead the team to compete for the championship?

He can't do it, not only he can't do it, most players can't do it.

He can lead the Rockets and the universe bravely, but the results are all failures.

So in the fourth quarter, James Harden fired wantonly from the outside as if he wanted to vent his dissatisfaction.

In the first 2 minutes, he took out the weapon he had honed all summer. As a result of his practice, he stepped back for three points, broke through with the rhythm change after the pick-and-roll, and made strange footsteps and fake moves at the basket. In just 2 minutes, he scored eight points.

And what are the Clippers doing during this time?
They took the lineup of Qin Ming, Lu Wei, Mann, Batum, and Harrell to face the main players of the Lone Ranger.

Because their lead is enough, and even with this lineup, facing the Lone Ranger is not a disadvantage.

When James Harden went down to earth, the Clippers had another player who stood up to face him, and that was Mann.

In the past few rounds, he defended James Harden very much, constantly looking for his own rhythm, and many shots were barely shot. On the offensive end, Mann came back and made two three-pointers, and also caused a foul by James Harden.

In the third minute of the game, James Harden still did not choose to pass the ball.

Who should he pass it on to?

He stares wide-eyed at the exhausted, lifeless Tyson Chandler who braced himself for his darkest moments in the first half, or Eric Gordon?He played well in the first few games, but in this game, his shooting percentage against the Clippers was [-] out of [-].

Or is it Westbrook?
He has never been good at singles, and now, all tactics have been stranded, only bayonet fighting is left.

James Harden can only come by himself.

He continued his attack, and was finally blocked by Harrell when he broke into the inside line and knocked him to the ground. James Harden fell down and sat on the ground, watching Qin Ming launch a fast break.

Watching the nine players rushing away, James Harden stood still, hands on hips, and slowly walked back to the backcourt.

"So this game has to be explained. James Harden, standing alone in the backcourt seems a little discouraged and a little frustrated."

"James Harden, as the top single player in the league, seems to be difficult to parry under the high-intensity switching and defense of the Clippers. Maybe the Rockets still can't wait for their championship in this round of the series. Isn't Westbrook suitable for him? Is Chris Paul unsuitable for him? Can the magic ball theory support him to the finals? Is James Harden strong enough? Perhaps, this round of the series can determine many things."

James Harden was replaced by D'Antoni when he made the next foul, and Westbrook went down with him.

Halfway through the third quarter, the Lone Ranger's twin stars all went off the field, sat on the bench, and waited for the game to end.

After they left the field, they could only lower their heads and watch the Clippers players continue to score.

Until all the main players of the Clippers have left, all the players on the field are unfamiliar to the media.

James sat on the bench as always. He seemed to have seen such a scene. A few years ago, he had always been like this, sitting on the bench and watching his opponents celebrate continuously. The repeated failures seemed to tell him that the team with him as the core seemed to be unable to go too far. As a star player, he could keep scoring and organizing, but the team just couldn't win.

He realized that when he was playing singles alone, if he was very efficient and scored [-] or [-] points in a game, that would be great. If he played well, the team could win, but if he was not efficient in singles, and the game was played with a lot of intensity, and his physical strength was not enough to support him to score uninterrupted singles until the last moment, then the game would be lost.

Having experienced ups and downs, Westbrook knew what James Harden was thinking at this time. He patted Harden on the shoulder and said: "It's okay, brother, this is our first game. There is no need to lose your confidence because of this. You are a great player. Really, I like playing with you. I like the atmosphere here. You are the boss of this team. Don't be downcast. When the game is over, you have to lead us to cheer up."

Harden stroked his beard and nodded numbly.

The Clippers also won the first game of their semifinals without any risk.This round of competition is of great significance to Qin Ming. He is facing a former MVP player who is also the most restrained player in the league. In this match, he also told the world that Qin Ming is not in the pool.

He is the best player in this league, there is no doubt about it.
