Chapter 133

Westbrook sat on the ground with a depressed face, and James Harden and Gordon rushed to pull him up.

Qin Ming's defense this time also strengthened the momentum of the Clippers. The Clippers' substitutes shouted frantically, and all the substitutes couldn't sit still. They stood up and waved their towels.

Qin Ming patted himself on the shoulder, motioned for routine operations, and sat down.

The Rockets' players settled down one after another, waiting for the next attack. They still had 20 seconds to attack.

The Clippers players also wait for the opponent to attack.

Covington sent a very regular baseline ball and threw it directly to Westbrook on the outside. The latter stuck Shamet to prevent the opponent from interfering with his reception.

Morris and Paul George didn't communicate well on this ball, and James Harden's air cut was very fast. Morris dropped half a body, and Westbrook's pass came over.

The ball led the way, and James Harden scored a layup after receiving the ball with a cross step. Zubac didn't dare to come up to help defend.

Qin Ming pushed forward with the ball, handed it to Morris who was raised again, and then ran towards the bottom line.

This is a three-point tactic. Qin Ming and Shamet will run Paul George. They will use Shamet and Zubac's pick-and-roll to run from two bottom corners to 45 degrees.

However, the Rockets switched defenses and rotations very quickly, and their explanation was very clear, so the ball failed to run out of the open space, and Morris did not pass it.

There were still eight seconds left in the attack time. After receiving the pass from Morris, Qin Mingshangti signaled himself not to pick and roll and let the opponent go down.

He knew that if he picked and rolled at the last moment, the Rockets' players would definitely come up to double-team him. There was not much time to attack, and if he was delayed like this, he would definitely have to violate the 24-second rule.

Qin Ming singles Westbrook.

Westbrook's defense is also among the top among perimeter players, and he has a lot of defensive experience. As long as you do some disguised actions, he can give you enough interference.

Qin Ming took two steps back, and the attack time was still six seconds away.

Westbrook then stepped forward, and Qin Ming pressed his shoulders and broke through with a low center of gravity. Westbrook's lateral movement was very fast, and he used his body to resist Qin Ming, preventing him from gaining too much breakthrough space. However, Qin Ming was faster than him, and he threw Westbrook away with a three-step layup after closing the ball.

Because the attack time was only three seconds, the Rockets immediately shrank the line, and surrounded Qin Ming like an iron barrel. Qin Ming found a space in the crowd, jumped up, and made a small pull.

The ball Eric Gordon jumped high and slammed his palm on the backboard, but failed to cover Qin Ming.

He used a high hitting board.

The basketball hits the backboard with an arc, then spins around the rim and falls in.

"This tactic didn't work. Qin Ming came out to catch the ball, but the attack time was running out. Qin Ming let Morris go down. He wanted to single-handedly fight Westbrook. After breaking through, the Rockets contracted a lot. They were not afraid of Qin Ming's pass at all. In the double-team of four people, Qin Ming made a shot! Gordon missed the block, and the ball fell in!"

"It's too exaggerated. I've only seen Irving play this kind of technical action among active players."

"This handwork is really delicate."

All three commentators gave their highest evaluation.

Qin Ming fell heavily to the ground, then hurriedly got up and went back to the backcourt.

But it was obviously too late. The moment he scored, James Harden immediately stood up and served. Eric Gordon, who had failed to block the shot, had already run to the LOGO area. After he received the ball, he formed a three-on-four situation with Westbrook and Westbrook.

Eric Gordon passed the ball directly to Westbrook, who caught the ball and shot a jumper, ignoring Shamet's interference.

This ball is very tough to hit!
Westbrook regained their face for the Rockets.

Under Qin Ming's performance of one offense and one defense, the Rockets showed their strength.

Westbrook's three-pointer hit the Rockets' morale a lot.

Qin Ming stood on the three-point line to rest and let Paul George dribble the ball through the backcourt.

After reaching the frontcourt, Paul George passed to Shamet, and then ran towards the baseline by himself.

At this time, Morris was waiting for him to run up to him on another baseline to set a screen for him.

Zubac landed on the right baseline.

After Paul George bypassed Morris' screen, the latter led the defender directly to the right area.

And Zubac went on to mention it.

In this way, the Clippers divided the Rockets' positions, allowing Paul George to get a singles opportunity with a lot of space.

Zubac came up for the pick-and-roll, Paul George dribbled the ball one after another to find the rhythm of the opponent's defense, and then passed the pick-and-roll by a small amount in disguise, and the man defending him became Covington.

Pickle took a step back in an instant and made a bow to Buddha. Covington ran up quickly, but Paul George directly dug a step and started to pass Covington.

Basketball hitting the backboard.

The Clippers continued their offensive rhythm.

Westbrook held the ball in the backcourt and continued to organize his teammates to run.

But this run lasted a full ten seconds, and they didn't run out of a good position, and the space was very limited.

James Harden received the ball from the outside. He faced Paul George. After two consecutive crotches were connected in front of the body in disguise, he directly retreated to the three-point line with a horizontal step, and then the basketball went up his arm and made a horizontal step.

Paul George should have a good memory of this trick, but he still didn't realize it. James Harden made a three-pointer, the basketball spun out, and accurately hit the net.

The Rockets led by four points.

After hitting the three-pointer, the Rockets retreated very quickly, not allowing Qin Ming the slightest chance to initiate a transition from offense to defense.

Qin Ming caught the ball in the backcourt and passed halftime slowly. At this time, there were still 4 minutes left in the first quarter.

He went on to ask for a high pick-and-roll.

After the high pick-and-roll, the Rockets implemented their own pick-and-roll principle. Their five small lineups would not be misplaced by the Clippers, and Qin Ming's pick-and-roll couldn't find any good points for singles.

If he meets the Mavericks or other teams with star centers, it is the best time to develop his offense, because Qin Ming is the best player in the league this season, but if he is a fifth-level player like the Rockets, he is actually not very good at playing.

When Qin Ming faced the striker, his hit rate was actually not very high, and his efficiency was not very good.

So this ball still depends on how Qin Ming chooses.

He passed to cut Paul George.

The latter made a layup.
