Chapter 96 G3 (11)

Leonard faced Doncic again. Although the latter didn't defend very well, he had quick eyes and quick hands. If Leonard showed any flaws, he would definitely cut the ball.

Leonard protected the ball very well. He sat directly on Doncic with his back. After two pushes, his step-back fadeaway hit the outside of the basket, but it went over.

"There is no way."

"Dongcic really can't defend. In fact, the Lone Ranger doesn't have a player who can match up with Leonard. Although Leonard's singles skills or footwork are not very good, he prefers to shoot after the pick-and-roll, but his body is here. He is like an epee. Unfortunately, the epee has no front, but you can't do anything about it."

Doncic still holds the ball from the outside, allowing Porzingis to play singles inside.

As soon as Doncic passed the ball in, the Clippers quickly double-teamed. After Porzingis was double-teamed, he didn't dribble, so he didn't worry.

But the hands of Paul George and Morris kept interfering with his vision and interfering with his passing line, and Porzingis had to pass the ball.

Leonard and Qin Ming on the outside began to take turns.

And just when Porzingis passed, Qin Ming started to rotate, and Hardaway passed the ball back again.

The moment Porzingis caught the ball, he made a fallback jumper and hit the board.

"This is impossible."

"Yes, because Porzingis raised the ball, no one in the Clippers can reach it. And there is really nothing you can do about such a person playing with you."

Third round.

Qin Ming held the ball from the outside and let Zubac come out for a pick-and-roll. Porzingis also defended the ball.

After switching defenses, Qin Ming looked for his own rhythm, took a dribble and followed by a shuffling step, and then passed Porzingis directly with a speed increase, and ran to the inside to pick the blue at an extremely fast speed.

Porzingis can't keep up at all, let alone other players who dare not come up to help defend.

"The Clippers chose to challenge Porzingis, and Qin Ming made a layup after passing Porzingis."

"The Lone Ranger team is still not easy to play."

"Although your Porzingis is indeed several levels higher than the Clippers in terms of frame protection, but if I pull you out, if you don't come out? If you don't come out, I'll shoot you. Qin Ming's shot alone is enough to deter the offense of the entire Mavericks team. Once Porzingis comes out, the Mavericks have no one to protect the frame. Qin Ming breaks through, you help defend, I cut, catch the ball and dunk."

Doncic sluggishly passed halftime, organized the offense again, and chose to let Porzingis come up for the pick-and-roll.

Because the real big man in the Lone Ranger lineup is only Porzingis, and his pick-and-roll effect is the best.

But after Porzingis and Morris, although his perimeter defense is not particularly good, he is still considered a top-notch defense in the league.

Morris stretched out his hand and stared at Doncic's waist.

The latter used the dribble to force Morris back and prevented him from going too far, because Porzingis made an air cut at this time. If Doncic is also allowed to rush in, then the Clippers' inside line will be a piece of fat to be slaughtered.

Doncic dribbled the ball from the outside, but the Clippers' defense was very strong. He couldn't find any good opportunities, and finally made a three-pointer with a step back.

But the ball hits!
"But! Everyone, keep your eyes open, I'm Doncic! Doncic once again responded to the Clippers' offense! Up to now, both sides have maintained a very high shooting percentage in this game, and each ball is more difficult than the other! Doncic's ball can be regarded as completely hitting the momentum of the offense!"

"Doncic, this round of the series is really carrying the Lone Ranger alone. Without him, the Lone Ranger is a bird without wings and can't fly at all. But with Doncic, they can play back and forth with the Clippers with such a lineup."

"Yes, although he lost a lot of points in the last two games, Doncic averaged 34.5 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists per game, far ahead of everyone in the scoring list."

"Let's see how the Clippers will choose this offense."

"For the Clippers, what they have to do is very simple, that is, to constantly attack Doncic and Porzingis. And since they chose to choose such an opponent in the playoffs, their tactics must also be related to these."

I saw Doncic, who was defending Paul George, was pulled out directly, and then Paul George received the ball and stood on the outside waiting.

At this time, Qin Ming and Leonard made a cross screen, and then pulled towards the baseline while the defenders were not paying attention.

Paul George has an entire upper half offensive zone.

He dribbled the ball under the crotch twice in a row, and then directly crossed the ball and shot it. Doncic didn't react at all, so he could only raise his hand to barely interfere with him.

But the goal was still scored.

The number of Paul George's singles this season has decreased a lot compared to last season, because he has two good singles players, Qin Ming and Leonard, next to him. This season, he doesn't need to hit the basket and hold the ball again and again in singles.

In the Clippers, he ushered in his third spring. This season, he averaged 25 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists.

His true shooting percentage this season has also reached 50.00%. For an outside player who also has to focus on defense, his shooting percentage is already at the forefront of the league.

Having said that, although Paul George has reduced a lot of singles this season, his singles efficiency is still very high this season, averaging 1.23 points per single, making him one of the top ten players in the league in singles.

After the Clippers gradually find their own touch, the Mavericks need to stand up more.

Because Doncic faced too much pressure, he faced top defensive players like Leonard and Paul George successively, which consumed a lot of physical energy, and every attack was in full game.

Most of the Lone Ranger's current offensive points are Hardaway.

Because he is directly facing Qin Ming, if he can't fight, then let Brunson come. Anyway, Qin Ming's defensive loophole, the Mavericks must grasp it well, this is the key reason why they can come back.

As long as Hardaway hits a certain shooting percentage, the Clippers are not invincible.
