Chapter 153, Christmas War.
Chapter 153, Christmas War.
Chapter 153, Christmas War.
TNT TV, Barkley, Miller, Smith just got out of the Christmas war between the Lakers and the Cavaliers.
"Congratulations to LeBron for winning the game against the Lakers! It's a pity today, he missed a triple-double with an assist." Barkley said with a big mouth.
"Haha, he can't get it, but there are still people who can get it. The Chinese in the Blazers are fully prepared today. You see, he took off his mask. It seems that he is going to show himself in front of his new wife. One hand."
As the camera continued to focus on Xue Ding, Smith also started to tease him.
"Congratulations to him for becoming a real man, haha, Kobe and LeBron got married quite early, and Xue quickly followed their pace." Miller also said.
Barkley shifted the topic to Xue Ding's three-pointer: "Reggie, Xue's three-pointer is very poor. His three-pointer shooting percentage is unbearable. Maybe he should ask you for advice on how to shoot a three-pointer." .”
Hearing Barkley's words, Reggie Miller immediately said to the camera: "Well, of course, Xue, come to me in summer, and I can make your three-pointers more accurate, haha."
Smith said: "Since we are talking about three-pointers, let's make a bet. How many three-pointers do you think Xue will make tonight? The loser will have pizza tonight."
Barkley said: "I guess I can't make the shot. This kid should have no physical fitness today. He just got married. There is a high possibility of making a three-point shot."
Reggie Miller looked at Barkley and said: "I guess one, haha, he has at least 1% shooting!"
Kenny Smith: "Then I'll say two."
"ok!"
None of the three felt that Xue Ding could hit more than 2 three-pointers.
………………
When Xue Ding stepped on the floor of the Rose Garden Arena.
A completely different force arrived at him.
This is a completely different feeling from myself.
If you want to talk about the difference between Xue Ding and Curry, it can be said that it is the sky and the earth.
It's not about ability, it's about playing style.
Xue Ding has strong physical fitness and can accelerate the impact recklessly, but Curry does not have such good physical fitness.
The real difference between Xue Ding and Curry is shooting.
Curry's dribbling and long-range shots and catch-and-shoot shots are at historical levels. In fact, his comprehensive long-range shooting ability is by far the strongest in NBA history. .
This greatly gives Curry and the team more choices.
Curry can find screens with the ball, use screens without the ball, attract firepower, finish, and even use himself as a screen. This is Curry's value.
As for Xue Ding, the whole world understands that only with the ball in his hands is the best way for Xue Ding to play. As far as Curry is concerned), his play style is limited.
It was precisely this limitation that caused Xue Ding to exert too much effort despite his wonderful game.
Xue Ding's realm is, with a ball in hand, I have the world.
Curry's state is that with the ball and without the ball, he can seal his throat with a sword.
Although it is a different realm, but in actual combat, Curry has more choices and greater opportunities.
It's not that Curry in the future will definitely be stronger than Xue Ding or definitely above Xue Ding, but in terms of facts, it is difficult for Xue Ding to make up for Curry's advantage in shooting ability in other ways.
Curry in 2016 was considered a crazy year. In the regular season, he played a series of performances that shocked the entire league and won the unanimous MVP. He led the team to 73 wins. Durant was called in the Western Conference Finals, but he lost The champion suffered a 1-3 reversal of the Cavaliers.
Curry in the regular season is beautiful, but Curry in the finals is depressed.
Xue Ding eagerly experienced and greedily absorbed Curry's various experiences and experiences.
The referee takes the basketball to the center.
Xue Ding looked at the sidelines.
He happened to see Yaya looking at him and smiling all the time, so he felt relieved.
Xue Ding couldn't wait to perform his crazy performance in front of her.
Finally, Xue Ding turned his attention to the field.
CCTV, TNT Sports, ESPN, ABC, Sina and other live video websites are ready to provide live broadcasts of this Christmas game for tens of millions of fans around the world.
The live broadcast, Hupu, etc. have also been prepared, and text live broadcasts have been prepared for fans who do not have the conditions to watch videos.
...............
Trail Blazers starting: Miller, Xue Ding, Webster, Aldridge, Oden
Nuggets starting: Billups, JR Smith, Anthony, Nene, Martin
Billups, Xue Ding, Anthony and others all greeted each other.
The Nuggets put on their faces the desire to win this Christmas game.
The two sides settled down.
With the whistle of the referee, the ball was thrown high into the sky.
The final game of the Christmas Wars series.
Officially begin.
Alden the Great successfully jumped to the ball.
Since Oden came back, although his strength has not returned to the peak, the Blazers have an inside pillar, which is reassuring and gives the Blazers more tactical principles.
Oden passed the ball to Xue Ding.
Xue Ding directly dribbled the ball forward.
"attack!!"
"attack!!"
"attack!!"
Accompanied by the rhythm of Xue Ding's batting, the cheers from the Rose Garden resounded throughout the arena.
Xue Ding came to the top of the arc. Instead of passing to Miller, he prepared to attack by himself.
Xue Ding faced Billups.
Xue Ding asked his teammates to pull away.
Miller pulled to the right side, Cockscomb Man stood in the bottom corner, and Oden and Adelaide kept getting stuck inside.
Xue Ding hesitated, ready to try his own rhythm first, and stretched out his hand to cover.
Oden stepped up to block Billups.
Xue Ding took the opportunity to rush past Billups.
Xue Ding could feel that his explosive power in the first step was slower, but his dribbling feeling was better.
to high.
Nene came out to make up for the defense.
Xue Ding faced Nene.
Looking at Martin and JR, it seems that they are ready to shrink the inside line at any time.
Xue Ding kept changing hands and dribbling the ball backwards. .
Small fight big misplaced, he is coming.
The teammates and the fans all thought that Xue Ding would break into the inside, but Xue Ding kept retreating, and retreated beyond the three-point line.
While Xue Ding dribbled back, Nene also spread his long arms and pressed forward step by step.
Xue Ding stepped back and crossed the three-point line.
Still continue to retreat.
Seeing Xue Ding keep retreating, Nene thought that he was going to open up space before rushing forward. Nene stopped at the three-point line, bent over and lowered his center of gravity.
When Xue Dingyun was one meter outside the three-point line on the right side, Nene stopped.
Sure enough, I completely let myself go.
Xue Ding secretly thought it was funny.
So an easy rhythm.
Collect the ball with the swing of the body, and shoot directly! ! !
"Oh!"
"What is he doing?"
....
The fans were dumbfounded watching Xue Ding throw a three-pointer.
McMillan was also about to yell, but he resolutely held back thinking of the festival.
When Nene saw Xue Ding's shot, he instinctively jumped, but Xue Ding's quick shot didn't let him touch any basketball!
"Is this rookie crazy? That's the position you vote for?"
……
"Shh!"
The crisp sound of the basketball hitting the net told Nene, is this rookie crazy?
0:3.
Xue Ding loses if this open three-pointer hits the frame!
Pass the needle directly outside the three-point line! !
"Cool!"
This is the feeling of Xue Ding throwing the first three-pointer. Xue Ding pretended to shake his head and went back. This was almost an instinctive celebration.
"yeah!!!!"
"nice shot."
The fans immediately cheered when they saw the goal.
Teammates came to Xue Ding to celebrate.
Everyone thought he was celebrating his new marriage with a three-point shot! !
Fortunately, it was thrown in, and Xue was not embarrassed!
They don't know that the madness is just beginning.
Xue Ding's three-pointers have always been inaccurate, and now he hit the first one, and the fans are also very happy.
Fans will always have a funny mentality when they watch Xue Ding shoot three-pointers.
When one enters, there will be booing, and the cheers will be louder than before.
This is a habit that Xue Ding developed when he missed more than [-] shots in a row.
Xue Ding struggled too much outside the three-point line.
At that time, every time a shot was made, the fans waited to celebrate, but every time they returned disappointed.
So at that time, the fans would ask every time the Trail Blazers played, "Did Xue Ding make a three-pointer today?"
"hit?"
Congratulations, you earned the ticket money.
Every time Xue Ding made a hit, the cheers on the scene were similar to winning the game.
This kind of situation sometimes embarrasses Xue Ding.
..........
The Nuggets are now ranked fourth in the West, and their lineup flaw is mainly due to the depth of the bench!
In the starting lineup, they can challenge any team in the league.
Anthony is also a melon now, not a poisonous melon.
Billups is still strong.
Billups dribbles the ball slowly across half court.
Continuous command transfer.
He draws his teammates to the side and plays, Anthony low to Aldridge.
After a series of tentative steps, Aldridge dribbled to the left, and Aldridge immediately adjusted his center to keep up.
All of a sudden, Anthony changed to throwing, and suddenly shot a cold arrow!
"Shh!"
Aldridge was also quite helpless in the face of such a sudden shot combined with fake moves.
2 is better than 3
Billups' tactics succeeded.
The biggest role of Billups coming to the Nuggets is to sort out the Nuggets' offense, so that this group of track and field men will no longer panic.
When playing Paul last season, Queen Bee experienced the horror of the Nuggets led by Billups.
The largest difference in playoff history, 58 points, is a gift from Billups to the Queen Bee.
Anthony played very comfortably in this offense. Billups formed a good singles environment for him, and he can fully display his singles strength.
The Blazers' second attack, Xue Ding, was not busy attacking by himself, but cooperated with Miller to start organizing.
After a series of passes, Miller gave the ball to Oden inside.
The Great Emperor is still in a state of protection. Although his injury has adopted a new treatment plan, it cannot be said that it can be healed completely. This cannot be done by a genius doctor.
Xue Ding also knows that he has done the best he can. No one can say whether Oden will retire due to injury in the future.
Because of the fear of injury, Oden's style of play is also very healthy. He hit Martin twice with this ball, and after turning around continuously, he jumped to the front basket and made a small hook.
"frame!"
Oden hit the iron once, Xue Ding rushed to grab a rebound but failed...
Xue Ding felt that his rebounding ability had also weakened.
Before the ball is released, he still has a chance to make a dash.
No matter how legendary Curry is, he is not good at rebounding.
The Nuggets' offense, looking back, Billups immediately passed from the left and led to Anthony finding a one-on-one almost.
Anthony hit Aldridge in the low post again, using his huge butt, squeezed Aldridge away abruptly, and made a turnaround jumper. The extremely fast shot speed shattered Aldridge's idea of blocking the shot.
"Shhh!!"
4:3.
The Nuggets overtook the score.
Xue Ding looked at Melon, and remembered the situation in his previous life that no one wanted him.
Melon is really in high spirits now.
I'm afraid he didn't even think that he would become a poisonous melon in the future.
……
While the Blazers were attacking, Xue Ding was still observing the opposing defensive formation, and did not choose to take over the game himself.
After passing the ball this time, it is still handed over to the inside Adelaide.
Ade confronts Nene.
Now Nene still has two eggs, very manly.
But being a man belongs to a man, it still can't cover up the problem of his weak defense.
After Aldridge made a continuous inside step, he made an easy layup!
Adelaide also made a lot of progress when he followed Xue Ding to play the leading role. His scoring ability was continuously deepened and strengthened. After Oden came back, the Blazers' inside offense was indeed very gorgeous.
Oden and Ade's footwork is top-notch, and Xue Ding feels that he is inferior to them in the low position!
……
After several consecutive rounds, Xue Ding figured out the Nuggets' defense.
They still used the same 2-3 zone defense tactics as the last time the two teams played against each other.
Basically gave up the Blazers' outside offense, and focused on quickly shrinking the inside.
This is the same as when other teams played the Trail Blazers, choosing to focus on protecting the basket.
Why do most other teams lose?
The Nuggets believe that their inside line is not strong enough, and the outside line cannot restrain Xue Ding's activation.
The Nuggets' players are confident in their physical gifts.
They used to be afraid of Roy's pioneers, but they were not so afraid of the pioneers led by Xue Ding.
If Xue Ding goes inside, several of their track and field men will give Xue Ding a good look.
……
Xue Ding played only 7 minutes in the first quarter before leaving, scoring 5 points and 3 assists.
Xue Ding is very low-key, adapting to his own feelings and the strength of the opponent's defense.
"Xue's condition is average today. After hitting the first three-pointer, he only scored a breakthrough layup. He focused on organizing his teammates. I feel that he is not very excited." Smith said.
"I feel that Xue played very comfortably today. Although the score is behind, it can be completely felt that he did not exert his strength." Miller said.
"Let's see." Barkley is the least anxious one, anyway, he has made at least one three-pointer, and he has to buy pizza.
………….
Anthony went crazy in the first quarter, scoring 12 points and 6 rebounds. Billups also scored 4 points and 6 assists.
The two of them are the most shining people in today's game.
Come back for the second quarter.
McMillan did not take Xue Ding at the beginning, but chose to send the second team.
Miller leads.
The Nuggets are led by JR and Lawson.
Lawson looked at Xue Ding, who was talking and laughing with his teammates from time to time, with a resentful face.
More than a month has passed, and the former No. 22 pick has completely thrown him away.
Now Xue Ding is a well-deserved new star of the league, and the core of the core of the Blazers.
And the self who thought he had won against him at the beginning is still playing in the second team.
Lawson has already heard a lot of bad things about him from Nuggets fans.
Most of them are "Why didn't our No. 17 pick win Xue Ding?"
"The same rookie point guard, why is there such a big gap between the two?"
"With almost the same technical characteristics, how did the management choose the shrunken version of Xue."
That's right, Lawson is regarded by fans as a miniature version of Xue Ding, with fast speed, strong body, and average shooting...
Xue Ding is one size bigger than Lawson in height and stature, so this is not a miniature version!
Some senior executives of the Nuggets have also started to use this matter to start a palace fight with the current general manager...
Because the conditions are almost the same, but the general manager made a stupid choice.
