NBA: I can see real-time shooting percentage

Chapter 53 The Clippers Are Difficult Tonight
"The Clippers took Qin Ming, Paul George, and Patterson."

"This is a shift."

"Yes, that lineup didn't work very well, and it lost too many points. The bench team that Rivers relied on didn't bring him an effect, but instead dug a hole for his starting players."

"Actually, I think it would be better for Qin Ming to bring a substitute player. When he brings a substitute player, he has enough shots and can ensure that the entire team can play around him. As a core point guard who attacks with the ball, this is his most comfortable and favorite way. Rivers is now adjusting the lineup. I believe they will do this in the next game."

"Yes, it's a win-win for the Clippers with Qin Ming on the bench. Qin Ming has gained enough shots and ball control, and the Clippers have also been completely strengthened."

Qin Ming caught the ball in the backcourt and pushed it all the way to the frontcourt.

In this offense, Paul George decided to let him play, so he stood directly in the bottom corner, waiting for an open shot.

Qin Ming watched the opponent go up to Tays, and continued to ask for a high pick-and-roll to hit Tays.

Zubac raised up and set a screen for Qin Ming. The ball directly went up to interfere with Qin Ming. After Zubac made an air cut, the other Celtic players took turns to prevent Qin Ming from getting too good a chance to pass the ball.

After delaying Qin Ming's attack, Tays followed Zubac again, but this time the high pick-and-roll failed.

Qin Ming still had ten seconds to attack.

He decided to challenge Smart.

Qin Ming jumped forward and broke to the right. The bad luck after the acceleration made Smart reach out for the ball, but he failed.

Qin Ming broke through to the inside line. At this time, the three Celtics had shrunk to the basket, and he had no room to make a shot.

But Qin Ming is a good enough point guard, and he is also a good breakout player. Qin Ming directly threw the ball to the bottom line and fed it into Mann's mouth.

Mann missed an open three-pointer from the baseline.

Qin Ming also had no choice.

The opponent's bottom line three-pointer has a 30.00% hit rate, and it is normal to fail to make it.

The Clippers returned to defense, and the Celtics wanted to push a wave of fast breaks. Tatum took the brunt and ran at the front with the ball. He was facing Qin Ming and Patterson.

Tatum didn't hesitate and went straight to the layup, which caused Patterson's foul.

Tatum made two free throws, and the Celtics further widened the score.

Qin Ming caught the ball in the backcourt and gave it to Paul George who asked for it.

The latter singled out Tatum, Patterson came up to cover, Paul George dribbled a step and directly pulled Tice, Tice did not step forward to defend, but chose to squat to defend, Paul George's choice for this ball was extremely good.

His ability to find shots is one of the best in the league.

Paul George hit a three-pointer!

"Mann missed the corner there, and Paul George came back and shot one immediately."

"Tice can't come out, then Paul George and Qin Ming will give you three-pointers again and again. It is better for the Celtics to continue to expand their defense in the first half."

"But Qin Ming's breakthrough is also very fast, not to mention that he can score points. If people like Mann can shoot comfortably, Stevens will also have a headache."

Stevens stood courtside, rubbed his chin, and yelled at Smart, "Expand!"

The latter nodded.

Rivers also stood on the sidelines and said: "Keep our offensive aggressiveness! Do a good job of defense!"

He guessed that the opponent might expand the defense in the next round to prevent the Clippers from making open three-pointers again and again.

The Celtics played a singles by Jaylen Brown.

He was facing Mann.

This young man's defensive enthusiasm is very good, and his performance on the court is also remarkable. He can be regarded as the backup forward that the Clippers rely on after Leonard's rotation.

Jaylen Brown missed a half-stop after an emergency stop.

But Theis got the offensive rebound and passed it directly to Tatum on the outside. The latter made an open three-pointer. It was too late for Paul George to step forward and the ball hit the basket.

"Protect our rebounds! Guys!"

Rivers yelled.

Qin Ming received the ball in the backcourt, and they decided to run a tactic for the ball.

After Paul George used the double screen from the bottom line, he pretended to make an air cut, but actually bounced back and evaded Tatum. The moment he stepped on the three-point line, Qin Ming's pass had already reached his hands.

The ball is very comfortable, and the texture of the basketball is all on the palm of the hand. This is also the pitcher's favorite catch.

Paul George continued to shoot three-pointers.

The ball still hits.

The starting lineups of the Clippers and Celtics are constantly seeing tricks.

Although Stevens emphasized the expansion of the defense, they had to shrink in the face of Paul George's air cut, and he found an open three-pointer.

Stevens clapped his hands and said, "Defense well!"

Smart organizes the offense.

Jaylen Brown and Tatum each came out with the help of a cover, and then Tatum singled again.

The Celtics' offensive tactics have always been very simple, and they belong to the simplest group of tactics.What they rely on is their will and ability to fight tough battles, and they have a series of players who can play singles.

Their player training also has a tendency to develop towards singles superstars.

Tatum, Jaylen Brown, etc. are all very good singles stars.

Brown caught the ball, and he faced Mann again.

Instead of shooting by himself, he called for Tays' pick-and-roll. Mann was blocked by Tays and missed the position. Zubac quickly defended him, but was passed by Jaylen Brown.

Although Mann's defensive effect is good, he lacks a lot of defensive experience. In the face of Tays' air cut, he can only follow the opponent and has completely lost his defensive position.

Jaylen Brown tossed the ball lightly, Tays jumped with both feet, and dunked the basketball into the basket.

With 6 minutes left in the second quarter, the Celtics led by 12 points.

"If the game continues like this, it will be difficult for the Clippers tonight."

"Yes, in the face of the Celtics' offense, the Clippers without Leonard are stretched. Although Mann is a good defensive player, he is only active and inexperienced. This ball let Theis cut in. He can't grab the ball. He can just retreat directly. Patterson can still protect the frame inside."

Qin Ming held the ball in the backcourt, and he decided to continue to score for Paul George, who has a good touch.

But this time the Celtics' defensive tactics were implemented very clearly, and they expanded their defense line as soon as they came up.

Smart waited for Qin Ming to come over directly in the LOGO area, and other players also stuck to the players he was defending.

Because both Qin Ming and Paul George need space, and they don't have any good insiders, there is no one inside.
