NBA: I can see real-time shooting percentage

Chapter 115

In the second game, after D'Antoni replaced all of his starters with a big wave of his hand, this game has been explained again.

The fans of the Rockets stood in place one after another, looking at the Clippers players in disbelief. They were the team with the best chance of winning the championship after the disbandment of Universe Yong. They have been fighting for so many years, but they still haven't got the slightest liberation?
The Rockets fans who had no hope left the field one after another.

At this time, D'Antoni's face was also very ugly. This season was almost counted as his last few years as coach of the Rockets. The magic ball theory was carried forward by him, but he also proved time and again that he could not bring this team to its peak state.

It doesn't matter what theories or coaches are, as long as they can't lead the team to win the championship, then the coach must dismiss get out of class.

He watched the Clippers players and had a final meeting with his coaching staff.

It was also this meeting that led to the ups and downs of the story that followed.

"It's really unexpected. We said before the game that the Rockets, the only team in the West other than the Lakers that can cause a lot of damage to the Clippers, was beaten 2-0 by the Clippers at home. I really can't think of any other team on this earth that can make the Clippers pay the price. They are really too strong!"

"Every victory is devastating. They are like an unstoppable wave, like the warriors who roared and tsunami a few years ago, constantly devouring the players in this league. They are one of the most powerful teams. No other team can cross the Clippers."

All commentators agree.

This Clippers team is really terrifying, a horror that makes people unable to see any hope.

And just under the hustle and bustle of outside public opinion, the Rockets made their final adjustments.

All of their players fought their backs and waited for their own G3.

G3, Staples Center, Clippers fans occupied all the positions, the world is full of white and blue oceans, Clippers fans are in full swing, let their players win this match point game.

At the beginning of the first quarter, Covington directly gave up the jump ball in the face of Harrell, who was put on the starting lineup.

The starting lineup for the Clippers is Qin Ming, Paul George, Leonard, Morris, and Harrell.

This lineup is very offensive. After Qin Ming's phenomenal performance, the lethality of this lineup can be said to be the strongest in the league.

Three All-Star players, a starter who averaged [-] points per game last season, plus an best sixth man, the lineup of these five players is also the top starter in the league.

They have everything that any player has.

They have excellent point guards, they have excellent outside shooting ability, and they also have the single-defense ability to defy everything, and the rebounding is also guaranteed. Even Harrell filled the frame that the Clippers are not good at this season.

Such defensive and offensive capabilities make the Clippers starting lineup an invincible soldier with the sharpest spear and the hardest shield.

The Rockets' starting lineup is as follows: Westbrook, James Harden, Eric Gordon, PJ Tucker, Covington.

After they traded Capela and Chris Paul, they didn't want a center at all. This is also related to not being able to sign a center. In short, they used this lineup to break through the first round and came to the most difficult opponent.

And they fought with their backs, without the slightest retreat.

The Clippers got the jump ball, and Paul George missed a three-pointer after using the screen.

Turning around, Westbrook broke through with the ball, passed Qin Ming directly, and blocked Qin Ming's position with his body. At this time, Harrell could not come up to help defend, and it was Morris who came, and the ball was passed directly to Tucker.

Tucker's corner shooting percentage this season is 40.00%. Seven, the ball hit.

After that, the Clippers scored two points with Leonard's excellent singles.

And the Rockets, once again relying on Westbrook's personal ability, succeeded in playing Qin Ming in the paint.

This is what the commentators and analysts said before the game. When the Rockets put up the magic ball lineup, if you don't remove your Qin Ming, then he will be a big colander on the court.

What's more, it was Westbrook facing him.

After returning from defense, Qin Ming held the ball and faced Covington instead of Westbrook.

Covington didn't perform very well in the last two games. Although he was diligent on the offensive end, he couldn't defend Leonard. The candidate to defend Leonard came to Eric Gordon.

His defense has always been good, but at least he doesn't drop the line.

Covington is here to lock up Qin Ming.

Qin Ming's shooting percentage against center forwards this season is 80.00%. He is a super mismatched single player in the league. As long as he is given a mismatch, he can score.

But when he faced shooting guards and small forwards, his singles shooting percentage was 40.00%, far lower than his usual shooting percentage.

When the small forwards covered Qin Ming with his slender arms and defensive experience, he could only pass the ball.

Qin Ming was forced to pass the ball to Morris who came up to ask for the ball.

Morris went to single Harden at 45 degrees, but he couldn't stand it, so he could only make a fallback jumper.

Missed.

Thus, the Rockets started their performance today.

In the first quarter, their offensive area was mainly concentrated on the inside. The repeated impacts of Westbrook and Eric Gordon made it impossible for Harrell alone to parry.

Eric Gordon is staring at Harrell, and the person the Rockets choose to play singles is whoever faces Qin Ming and Harrell, who will rush in.

They broke through very decisively and resolutely. After the Clippers called a timeout, they had to modify their lineup.

Harrell was removed, replaced by Mann, and Qin Ming remained on the court.

The reason for him staying on the court is very simple. At this time, the Clippers' offense is not good, and they are not playing ideally at all.

If this lineup is not easy to play, then Rivers will use his regular lineup, that is when Zubac plays.

The Rockets' three-point shooting percentage this season is 30.00%. They don't have the ability to shoot the Clippers statistically.

After successive breakthroughs, the Clippers began to change their formation and changed their defensive strategies, and when they shrank to the inside, that is when the Rockets spread their fangs.

Unknowingly, they replaced Westbrook, the most inaccurate three-pointer but the sharpest breakthrough player tonight, and took Rivers Jr., whose athletic ability is not very good.

But he has three points.
