Chapter 1245 James Ankle Terminator Harden

George hit a three-pointer with a cover.

George received a breakthrough from Harden and made a three-pointer.

Billups made a three-pointer after switching offense and defense.

Harden made a three-pointer and fouled Terry.

After the pick-and-roll, Love made a lucky three-pointer from the top arc and bumped into the basket.

The Clippers scored five consecutive outside gains, which hit the Mavericks hard.

After a wave of 15:2 attacks, the Clippers have led their opponents by 13 points.

This start is very similar to the scene of last year's playoffs.

The same is the American Airlines Center, and it also feels like it came quickly after the start. At that time, the Clippers won two consecutive away games, which can be said to be a rainbow of morale.

But after all, the Clippers are now at the forefront of the Western Conference, and the Mavericks are just a marginal team in the playoffs, so the state of the two teams is quite different from the strength they have shown today.

Such a situation on the field is also very normal.

"Come on~, are you going to witness another fiasco~?!"

Byron, who was sitting on the sidelines, was very conflicted.

I want to see more of Lan Shengli coaching on the spot, but I don't want to see my favorite team being "blood abused".

Truth is a very tangled state.

While speaking, the first quarter of the game was over, and the Clippers scored an astonishing 46 points by virtue of the violent three-point rain.

The Mavericks also scored 23 points relying on Terry's performance for a period of time.

Exactly half of the Clippers' score, it's really too bad.

23 points behind in the first quarter, this game is really a bit desperate.

In the second quarter of the game, the two sides replaced the substitute lineup one after another.

Here the Mavericks continued to chase points.

Former Cavaliers player West scored 10 points in a row, helping the Mavericks catch up with the point difference.

After all, compared with the starting players, the Mavericks' bench players are more energetic and hardworking, so they play better on both ends of the offense and defense.

Even though the Mavericks recovered 8 points in the second quarter, they were still 15 points behind.

"As I said before the game, in this kind of game, we want to win as much as we can~!!, the more we win, the better, the more the better~!!, Come on everyone~!!!"

In the locker room during the intermission, Lan Shengli's reminder was so simple and direct.

The second half quickly resumed.

"Swipe~!!!"

After halftime adjustments, Harden also found his touch here and hit a three-pointer.

Although the Clippers were raining three-pointers before, Harden's touch was not good. Although he made a three-point shooting foul at first, Terry then paid attention to his actions, so that Harden did not get another foul. Opportunity, and Harden's multiple three-point attempts failed to hit.

This three-pointer may be proof that Harden's touch has returned.

Carlisle here is also very sensitive. Seeing Harden's touch, he immediately called Terry to his side. It seems that the "microwave oven" is about to exert its strength in advance.

While talking, Harden dribbled the ball again, and after coming to the frontcourt, he and Love made a pick-and-roll cooperation.

Because the Mavericks continue to guard the zone defense, the pick-and-roll is not very effective.

But facing the zone defense, Lan Shengli has his own unique solution.

That is to let the players without the ball pull to one side and play singles for the players with the ball.

The zone defense had no choice but to adopt single-man defense under compulsion.

Therefore, here Love and others quickly went to the other side, creating a very comfortable singles environment for Harden.

And it was Nowitzki who defended Harden.

Facing Nowitzki, Harden first lowered his center of gravity to break through, then made a sudden stop, and while pulling back his body, he directly shot a small mid-range jumper.

"Swipe~!!!"

The ball hits again.

With Nowitzki's current footsteps, it is indeed too difficult to prevent Harden.

"Dum~!!"

Carlisle requested a timeout again, and the point difference was widened again, heading for 20 points.

"The opponent likes to play singles and wants to create opportunities for singles, so let's let him play singles, as long as we don't let other Clippers players participate in the offense~!!"

Here Carlisle reminded his players.

"If Harden continues to play singles with the ball, then we don't need to switch defenses after the pick-and-roll, and we will always defend Harden one-on-one, and then continue to defend in the zone. Do supplementary defense at any time~!! The offensive end consumes Harden for me, beat him This point~!!"

Carlisle went on with the arrangement.

"I can restrain the James in the East, and the same in the West~!"

Carlisle thought in a confident state.

"If the opponent continues to defend the zone, then we will continue to let Harden play. I believe that no player on the Mavericks can defend Harden one by one, no~!!, so the rest of you must open up the space as soon as possible and find Position yourself well, don’t bring the defenders over~!!”

Lan Shengli is also reminding here.

Pause back, and the game continues.

The Mavericks replaced Carter here, and Terry returned to the court.

Nothing has changed on the Clippers side.

Here the Mavericks are resolutely implementing the tactics arranged by Carlisle, and Terry played Harden on his back.

The strength confrontation between the two is not much different, but Terry is the attacker after all, so he is more active.

I saw that after Terry used his experience to shoulder Harden, he turned over and shot a jumper.

"Swipe~!!!"

Harden didn't interfere with the shooting at all, so the ball was thrown in without any pressure.

The "microwave oven" once again played its due role.

"You can't guard against me, tell your coaches, change someone~!"

Terry returned to defense while talking trash to Harden.

Harden looked expressionless, and he was not in a hurry to ask for the ball, but just walked towards the frontcourt.

The Clippers quickly launched a positional attack, and Harden quickly regained possession of the ball here.

Seeing that the opponent is still singles, and Terry is defending himself, Harden motioned his teammates to pull away.

Harden's singles performance moment has begun.

"Crack clap clap!!!"

Terry, who was bent over, clapped his hands very excitedly, teasing Harden.

All these provocative behaviors have made Harden angry.

Harden immediately dribbled the ball under his crotch.

The center of gravity is lower, the dribble speed is faster, and there are more changes in the crotch dribble, which makes people mesmerized.

Here Terry's eyeballs are changing back and forth with the ball, but he is also very focused.

"Break you~!"

Here Terry may not be able to accept Harden's play, suddenly leaned forward, and made a stealing action of a football goalkeeper to save.

"Oh~!!!"

With an exclamation from the American Airlines Center, I saw that Harden first dribbled the ball faster under the crotch, and then dribbled the ball behind the back, which directly "turned the danger to safety" in an instant, and made Terry lose his center of gravity and fell to the ground. .

James Harden instantly became the "ankle terminator" and completely shook Terry.
