The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 68, Tactical Adjustment.

The expression on Le Fu's face does not show too many emotional fluctuations. After all, he is also a future All-Star with a good psychological quality.

After Love picked up the ball at the basket, he sent it to Flynn immediately.

Xue Ding had just finished yelling at the camera when Flynn dribbled the ball across the half court.

"Return to defense!!!"

Roy and Adelaide have already prepared in their own half.

Flynn long pass to Sessions!
Sessions was also welcome, and after a simple adjustment, he shot a three-pointer at a 45-degree angle on the right!

"frame"

The three-pointer is not the way he is good at finishing, but Xue Ding's tempo is very fast, and he thinks he has the opportunity to attack.

"The tempo of both sides is too fast. They both resolved the attack within 7 seconds, but the Timberwolves can't play like this. This belongs to Xue Ding's rhythm. The Timberwolves can't panic now."

Ke Fan is now making suggestions for the underdog Timberwolves.

The rebound on the field was protected by Adelaide.

Adelaide made a quick shot to Roy, and Roy made another long pass.

Xue Ding received a pass from Roy at the top of the arc, dribbled behind his back, and passed between Jefferson and Love.

Stepping on the free throw line and stepping into the air.

A big windmill.

"frame!"

Accompanied by Xue Ding's roar, the fans cheered wave after wave.

25 is better than 38!

"pause!"

Rambis finally couldn't bear it and jumped out to stop.

It is unacceptable to be hit back by the Blazers so continuously.

Anyone who has played ball knows that counterattack is the easiest way to widen the point difference.

The scoring on the counterattack was too easy.

McMillan also had a smile on his face at this time.

Although he also knew that a counterattack could open up the point difference as soon as possible, but he didn't expect it to be so effective at this time.

There is a counterattack player in the team that really doesn't need to restrict him too much.

Taking advantage of this timeout, the Timberwolves replaced the entire main lineup and prepared to press the rhythm.

Playing a fast pace is very dependent on the personal ability of the players. The personal ability of the Timberwolves players is obviously inferior to the Blazers.

After slowing down, the Timberwolves finally found their own rhythm!

Love broke out, and then their Jefferson also started to attack with the ball.

Compared with the downturn of Flynn and Sessions on the outside, Love and Jefferson are in much better condition.

The Timberwolves made consecutive fouls on two inside lines and directly beat Aldridge.

After Ade went down, the Blazers' inside line was tight!

The score was slowly approaching.

The Blazers' offense can only be promoted from the outside.

Xue Ding came down to rest with 4 minutes left in the first half.

Roy led the Trail Blazers lineup to fight the Timberwolves.

After a while, halftime is over.

45:55.

Looking at the score on the field, Rambis took a deep breath.

This score is not bad, only 10 points behind.

The Blazers' injuries are too serious, and it is not that simple to lose three starters and easily defeat an opponent with a full lineup.

Even if the Timberwolves are underdogs, but both of the Timberwolves' cores have exploded, this is enough to resist them.

Among the Trail Blazers lineup, Adelaide is the most depressed player. His advantage in positional warfare is not particularly obvious in fast-paced confrontations. In the first half of the game on the offensive end, he has no chance to find someone to play back and singles, and then on the defensive end. He himself was beaten by Love and Jefferson.

The main advantage of the Blazers in the first half was Xue Ding and Roy, two outside offensive points.

As long as the two of them have the opportunity to open one-on-one, they can basically create scoring opportunities independently, and the outside line of the Timberwolves is miserable.

Xue Ding scored 24 points in the half, and Roy scored 16 points. They supported the Blazers' offense tonight!

Since the timeout, the Timberwolves have quickly adjusted their tactics from the outside to the inside.

Using Jefferson as the fulcrum of the inside attack allowed them to quickly stabilize, resulting in the point difference not being widened like the Blazers' tactical arrangement in the second quarter.

Halftime was gone in the blink of an eye.

In the cheers of the fans.

In the second half, the game changed sides and fought.

The Blazers had the strongest lineup in the second half.

Xue Ding, Roy, Fernandez, Aldridge, Purbitzla.

Timberwolves go first.

Flynn's advance was slow.

Xue Ding knew at a glance that the Timberwolves were about to slow down as they did at the end of the first half.

Even if Rambis doesn't admit it anymore, they dare not play with the Blazers anymore.

Rambis has also seen how terrifying the Blazers are willing to run.

This attack.

The Timberwolves continue to pass the ball on the outside continuously. After a few passes, Love will hang the basketball to Jefferson inside.

Their offense was as simple as it was in the first half, this time with Jefferson's low post.

Jefferson is a stocky power forward. He has a strong back-to-the-basket offensive ability and solid footwork. His outstanding strength and wingspan also help him not suffer in the penalty area. His offensive weapons include a 12-foot jump hook, which is realistic. Shot fakes, and deadly step-back jumpers.
Jefferson on Aldridge.

Aldridge had 4 fouls.

Just when everyone thought Jefferson would choose to play Adelaide with his back, this guy sent the ball to Love who ran back.

Love received the ball and rushed to the Blazers three-second zone.

At this time, it was not Pulbizla who was facing him, but Xue Ding who had defended him!
"Bang!!!"

Xue Ding ran towards Le Fu fearlessly!
"Beep!"

The referee blew his whistle.

The strength of Love's inside line knocked Xue Ding away, avoided his block, and successfully advanced, scoring and adding penalties.

47:55.

"Rookie, don't be brave, welcome to the NBA." Love said with a smile.

Xue Ding covered his chest, but did not respond.

"The Wrath of the Turtle" triggers.

Xue Ding is a guy with a heavy vengeance mentality. Love completed 2+1 against him on the field, which is enough to make him angry.

The effect of this skill depends on how long his rage lasts.
Even though Xue Ding is strong and strong, he still suffers a bit in terms of strength if he wants to fight against the opponent's inside players, especially in the case of passive defense.

Scoring this goal also means that the Timberwolves adjusted their tactics well in the second half.

Even though they have been losing streak, they never thought of giving up a game easily.

"Shh!"

Love made the free throw steadily.

48:55.

"The Timberwolves' tactical adjustment in the second half was very obvious. They slowed down their rhythm. Now we will see how the Blazers adjust. Oden's injury has shown some disadvantages at this time, and Przybilla's state is not good. , Ade had 4 fouls on his back, which brought huge troubles to the Blazers' inside defense. Just this round, even Xue Ding returned to the inside defense."

McMillan also saw a change in the Timberwolves' tactics.

Rambis' timely adjustment prevented the Blazers from maximizing their advantage.

NBA coaches are very professional.

Almost as long as the coaches of both sides discover tactics and loopholes, they will adjust their lineups in time.

In the NBA, the details of the court determine the final result of the game, and the error tolerance rate here is too low.
