NBA: I can see real-time shooting percentage

Chapter 32 Gentry's Forced Change
In fact, what he said was not wrong.

But Ingram's ball quotient and defensive IQ are obviously not very high. His offensive talent is the top in history, but in terms of defensive talent, he is just a little bit worse.

Before he came up to double-team, Holiday kept signaling him to back off and not to come up to double-team.

With this double-team, the opponent has a chance to score at the basket.

The point difference narrowed to nine points.

Qin Ming's offense was like a fish in water, and his defense did not suffer too much by relying on the lineup that Rivers gave him.

Jrue Holiday sighed, and after receiving the ball in the backcourt, let Ingram come up to pick and roll for himself.

Ingram corresponds to Harrell. If the Clippers switch defenses, Qin Ming is obviously helpless to defend Yingge.

This is the best solution for the Pelicans in singles. Holiday should not be allowed to play Qin Ming in singles. He is more suitable to challenge the inside of the Clippers. His rhythm changes and passing skills are used to punish big men.

Ingram, on the other hand, played indiscriminately, so he would be more comfortable facing Qin Ming.

Sure enough, the moment the dislocation was formed, the basketball was passed into Ingram's hands.

Qin Ming quickly posted it. He had seen how the opponents in the playoffs in the past few seasons defended Durant. Most of them resisted his lower plate and prevented him from dribbling too much to find rhythm. Then Durant's pull-up will also be affected to a certain extent.

But Durant rarely plays this kind of mismatch, and neither does Ingram.

After dribbling, Ingram took a step back, his body's center of gravity was all in the front. After he made a crotch dribble, he saw Qin Ming pressing forward and switched to a back attack.

When he pushed back, Qin Ming could only retreat, completely unable to resist.

Ingram sat back again, and Qin Ming fell to the ground, wanting to make an offensive foul, but the referee didn't call the ball. Yingge turned half-turned and shot, and hit the board.

"It's not okay to be clever, you should use another person to guard against me."

The second half was very aggrieved, and Yingge also yelled at Qin Ming who was on the ground.

Qin Ming stood up with a smile, and sprayed at Yingge: "The pick-and-roll is misplaced, and another person is guarding you. You really are a XX and still set up a memorial archway."

Trash talk like this is normal on the basketball court.

But the referee still warned the two.

I don't know if this trash talk is a tactic of the Pelicans.

They seemed to know that Qin Ming was very unyielding and easy to boss.

But that was the first half, and Qin Ming, who had been educated by Rivers, was no longer persistent.

He held the ball across the half, and the Pelicans, who hadn't fully retreated, came up to double-team.

The people who came were Lonzo Ball and Zhu Holiday. Both of them are strong defensive players, and they also have a good understanding of passing. As long as Qin Ming makes a pass error, they can quickly seize the opportunity.

This is actually the same as the last game against the Lakers. The Pelicans also learned this tactic temporarily.

The Clippers are also very adaptable to this rhythm. Shamet came out to catch the ball, and Qin Ming directly lobbed it.

He was able to pass the ball like this because his two center forwards sank to the bottom line. Okafor and Ingram didn't dare to act rashly, and Morris' bottom line three-pointer was the most accurate of the Clippers, and the Pelicans didn't dare to let it go.

After Shamet took the ball, he broke through directly inside. Ingram came up to help defend, Shamet made a pass inside and gave it to Harrell.

But in fact, neither Zubac nor Harrell has much experience in back-ups. If you have to say it, Zubac, who trained with Dameng last season, can be considered to be able to play, but it is not necessary.

Harrell dribbles out to open up space for the defender to organize the offense.

After Qin Ming sank to the bottom, he made a cross screen with Morris. The ball was out of Morris' pocket, and Hart didn't press him hard.

This is also a small misalignment.

After Morris dribbled the ball under his crotch, he directly stepped back and made a three-pointer against Bahart.

The latter is not as tall as Morris, and his wingspan and jumping are also one level behind, so he pounced on it to no avail.

Morris made another three-pointer!

"Morris scored a three-pointer! The point difference returned to nine points again!"

"From this round, we can see that the Pelicans made temporary adjustments. Qin Ming got a double-team after halftime, but because he made this mistake in the last game, he responded very rationally. The Clippers are also prepared. In this lineup, Morris is misplaced against everyone, but Gentry is unwilling to take the Twin Towers, because the space is too small, and their starting point guard didn't shoot. Now there are no tricks."

"Yes, the Clippers can play this way because their point guard is good enough, has excellent three-point ability and inside finishing ability, and has good passing ability, and Qin Ming's shooting range is too far, so they can take it for granted. Twin towers, but the Pelicans can't do this."

"What Gentry can do now is to replace Ball first. His effect on the field is not good, and the offense can't play a big role. As for defense, the vacancy inside is also a weakness."

Sure enough, Gentry called out JJ Redick, the miscellaneous boss who had a good hand today, and Hayes who came up, and he wanted to replace Hart.

Qin Ming forced him to change into such a lineup to deal with it.

On the Pelicans side, Ingram singled out Morris. The former broke through directly. With his long legs, he gained a positional advantage, and then caused a foul by Harrell.

At this time, 4 minutes of the game had passed, and Qin Ming still had 2 minutes to perform.

"Sure enough, the Pelicans made a substitution."

"JJ Redick replaced Lonzo Ball, Hayes replaced Hart, so the Pelicans finally have a normal matchup with the Clippers."

"After this substitution, Qin Ming's offense is actually not very easy to play. The Lakers didn't make such a substitution in the last game because they had James, but James' interior defense has actually improved with age and is no longer good. The Pelicans also have two towers inside. Qin Ming's breakthrough is difficult to be effective, and he can only float outside."

"But if he can use pull-up mid-range jumpers, or floaters, he can continue to punish the Pelicans lineup. But so far, we haven't seen him use these tricks."

Qin Ming shook his arm, waiting for Ingram to make two free throws.

He made two free throws and the point difference returned to eleven points.

The twin-tower lineup is actually more comfortable for Qin Ming.

When training in China before, he basically put up double-high lineups, and it was a two-three defense. At that time, he used ultra-long-range three-pointers and extremely abnormal shooting throws to punish two-three defenses.

His throwing level is going up at a high level, but in the NBA, his playing is a bit unacceptable, so he abandoned it.

With the opponent's lineup, I have to use some new weapons.
