NBA: Expansion becomes stronger

Nurkic was blown up, which is not good news for the Trail Blazers, but it is not fatal news, after all, for the Trail Blazers, the double gun is the most lethal weapon for the Trail Blazers.

However, in the first quarter of the game, the performance of the two guns was also average, after all, half of them were thinking about how to break the gap on the inside before the game started, after all, beating the Lakers in the strongest place of the Lakers is more valuable.

At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers were 22-30, 8 points behind the Lakers, although the inside line was blown up by Chen Hao alone, but the Trail Blazers did not lose too badly, and it can be said that they have played better against the Lakers recently.

During the first quarter break, the head coach of the Trail Blazers, Tristotz, modified his tactics in time and adjusted the focus of the Trail Blazers from the inside to the outside.

The Trail Blazers wanted to rely on outside play to limit Chen Hao, but it was clear that they were thinking too much.

In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers gave Nurkic a blue-collar opportunity, allowing Nurkic and McCollum, who played pick-and-roll, and it worked well at first.

In the face of the Trailblazers' blocking, Chen Hao and the outside defenders were a little uncoordinated, which gave the Trailblazers a chance, but quickly changed it through communication.

Since the Trail Blazers like to play blocking and dismantling, then we will directly block and dismantle, and we will follow and change defenses.

This also allowed Chen Hao to face the pioneers' double guns at one time.

The first thing Chen Hao met was McCollum!

McCollum is arguably the second best of the Blazers.

Although he is only 19cm tall, he can use every scoring tool with his low-post singles, pull-up jump shots through cover, outside three-pointers, and one-on-one breakaway layups, and he does it well.

That's why the Trail Blazers would keep him on the team with a $100 million contract.

Although he doesn't have the physical, all-round, foul-making ability and shooting range of Durant, Westbrook, Harden and Curry, his technical characteristics are comprehensive, so that he has no weakness in any of them, but this also has a problem, that is, he can do anything, but none of them are top-notch.

In addition, McCollum is also characterized by a big heart, he can always score in key moments, and it is a score in the snow rather than the icing on the cake.

"Chen Hao VS McCollum! This should be the first time Chen Hao has gone head-to-head with the Trail Blazers in this game!" O'Neal said, "It's a familiar little man playing Chen Hao on the outside that he is familiar with, and Westbrook, who was so arrogant last time, has been taught a good lesson, I don't know what McCollum will be like." "

"That's right, I don't have to feel it this time, I'm grateful that Chen Hao will win this matchup, but Chen Hao may not be so easy, although Westbrook is very strong, but his projection ability is not strong, so for big men, as long as he keeps up with the pace, there is still a chance, but McCollum's projection ability is very strong, I feel that Chen Hao can handle McCollum's projection well, and he will have a chance to win!" Barkley said.

"You can actually beat Ullis on the inside, it seems that you are very powerful, but now that you have met me, I am not so easy to deal with!" McCollum provoked Chen Hao.

"If you want to fight, fight quickly, don't talk so much nonsense, wait until I finish you, and then go and solve your boss Lillard, and this game is over!" Chen Hao said impatiently.

"It's swelled to this extent, and before he's sure to beat, he's already thinking about how to solve Lillard" McCollum thought to himself, "What an inflated guy!"

I saw McCollum lower his center of gravity, and then accelerated instantly, wanting to break through Chen Hao's left hand.

Chen Hao would have chosen McCollum like this, so at the beginning, he chose to rely on his body, wanting to put a little pressure on McCollum first.

McCollum felt that his breakthrough was estimated to be unworkable, and after breaking through one step, he quickly pulled his center of gravity back, wanting to use his speed to deceive Chen Hao.

But how could Chen Hao be fooled so easily, when McCollum pulled his center of gravity back, he also quickly pulled his center of gravity back.

"Oh, oh, oh, look at McCollum, there's no room for this ball! O'Neill said excitedly, "Do you choose to shoot yourself or pass the ball out!"

McCollum actually wanted to pass the ball out, but Chen Hao wouldn't let him pass the ball so easily!

In this case, if you wait for your teammates to come and answer you and pass the ball out, then the teammates who receive the ball will not have time to attack, and the best choice is to make a strong throw, so it is better to solve it yourself.

McCollum, who thought so, didn't make many choices, and jumped up directly to prepare to pull out three points!

"Smack"!

There was no suspense at all, Chen Hao gave McCollum a sturdy hat!

After the hat is over, there is no one in the front court, although Chen Hao's ball control ability is very poor, but in the face of an empty half court to want to make a layup, it is not too simple.

The fans at the Trail Blazers' home stadium were so noisy today that Chen Hao felt it was time to quiet them for a while.

directly used a violent windmill to complete the dunk, and showed the home fans of the Trail Blazers what is called violent aesthetics!

"F.U.C.K!" McCollum burst out directly after the ball was capped, and shook his hand by the way, venting his inner helplessness

"Let's look at McCollum's expression, it's really pitiful! I remind the Trail Blazers players that it's better to play around Chen Hao!" Barkley said to O'Neal.

"Then I guess I can only choose to shoot from the outside! The inside line guarded by Chen Hao is too strong!" O'Neal said with a smile.

The home fans of the Trail Blazers, who had been excited before, were also silent at this time.

"Why is this Chen Hao so strong, Nurkic and McCollum have already failed in their respective duels with Chen Hao!"

"In that case, we're only left with Lillard now!"

"Although our Lillard is very powerful, I don't feel like Chen Hao's opponent will be either!"

"Don't say frustrated, we have no reason not to believe that Lillard won Chen Hao, saying that a basketball game is not a one-person game, and it takes a team to win!"

The home fans of the Trail Blazers began to be pessimistic, and in their opinion, Lillard may not be Chen Hao's opponent, and this atmosphere filled the entire Trail Blazers' home court.
