The next moment, everyone gathered in the locker room.

The third quarter begins.

Both teams' lineups have been adjusted and returned to the opening lineup.

"Hey, what's going on? Why did the Trail Blazers choose to give up Beverley, who performed well defensively in the first quarter?"

Yang Jian was a little confused.

Ma Jian on the side smiled: "Isn't this obvious? The Trail Blazers want to attack the opponent and take away the opponent in one wave!"

Yang Jian murmured to himself: "It's a good idea, but it's a bit crazy!"

"It's okay to be crazy! If you're not crazy, how can you still be called a young man?"

On the Clippers bench, when he saw the Trail Blazers' personnel adjustments, Doc Rivers' brows relaxed at first and then furrowed again.

Although I really don't want to admit it, I have to admit that Barkley and Cole were right in the first half. If the Clippers want to come back, they really have to count on Paul's performance.

But for some reason, Doc Rivers' worries were getting bigger and bigger.

Halfway through the third quarter, the two sides were playing back and forth. You just scored a goal, and I would respond with one in the next round. The scene was very lively, and the fans enjoyed watching it.

However, the Clippers were still unable to further narrow the point difference. At 6 minutes and 48 seconds, Paul faked a mid-range pass and assisted Jordan for a dunk under the basket. The latter finally scored the first goal of the game.

.

76:65, the Clippers are still 11 points behind.

Next, as long as they hold on for one round and complete a counterattack, they can reduce the point difference to less than 10 points.

If realized, it will greatly improve the morale of the Clippers.

Can they do it?

Trail Blazers offense.

Just after halftime, Terry Stotts called a timeout.

"Damien, LaMarcus, Wang, no matter who of the three of you gets the opportunity next, they must score this goal. We must never let the Clippers close the point difference to less than 10 points. Do you understand?

?”

He said to the three of them with a serious expression.

Lillard and Aldridge nodded. Wang Zelin casually wiped the sweat on his head, raised his head and showed a confident smile: "Give the ball to me later!"

Up to this point, the two sides have not only competed with team tactics and players' physical fitness, but also with the will of the two teams.

Led by Paul, the Clippers want to reach the coveted Western Conference Finals.

Under the leadership of Wang Zelin, the Trail Blazers want to go one step further this year and set foot on the highest stage of the NBA league-the championship stage!

Neither side wants to lose, but unfortunately, in sports competitions, there is only one winner. Therefore, Wang Zelin will never give up the victory.

If you want to do it, do it the best!

"Okay, then it's up to you."

After saying that, Tristotz warned again: "You guys are waiting outside to make room for the king."

Lillard and Aldridge nodded again without retorting.

The timeout ends and the Blazers attack.

Wang Zelin was about to reach the lower part of the right elbow area, and Lillard hit the ground and passed the ball to him.

The defender behind him was DeAndre Jordan. Griffin was intent on entering the short corner and wanted to double-team him, but found Aldridge pulling out and had no choice but to follow him.
Chapter completed!
