Chapter 317 Tsunami is coming(1/2)

The Trail Blazers and Warriors played fiercely, with the scores taking the lead alternately, and there were four draws in the first quarter.

All members of the Trail Blazers team were present, and all five players scored. Wang Zelin showed off his talent as a center coordinator and sent out 3 assists. He scored 4 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in a casual game.

Aldridge became the team's main attack point. He received Wang Zelin's mid-range shot and scored 4 points. Coupled with his personal singles with the ball, he scored 8 points in a single quarter.

For the Warriors, Curry took on the absolute offensive responsibility, scoring 2 of 4 three-pointers, 4 of 8 in a single quarter, scoring 11 points, and dishing out 2 assists.

After the first quarter, the Warriors trailed by 2 points.

In the second quarter, the two teams did not continue to fight against their main players, and both teams used rotating lineups.

But what is surprising is that the Blazers, who are clearly better in lineup, performed worse.

Garnett, Mo Williams, and Yi Jianlian combined to score 7 points in the second quarter. The combined strength of the three of them could barely achieve the efficiency that they could achieve alone in previous games.

The long road trip and the exhaustion of winning streaks for the sake of winning streaks began to show up.

Iguodala played like a god of war during this time on the bench! Under his leadership, the Warriors, together with Marlis Speights, dominated the second quarter and frequently launched quick counterattacks.

The Trail Blazers in the second quarter were completely different from the first quarter. Wang Zelin only played three minutes in the second quarter, allowing the Warriors to seize the opportunity and successfully lead 55:49 at halftime.

Changing sides and fighting again, the situation changes suddenly.

After the first three minutes, Thompson and Curry hit three three-pointers in succession, and the Warriors led 64:52 by 12 points. The Warriors suddenly started raining three-pointers, catching the Trail Blazers off guard.

Beep~~~

Coach Terry Stotts hurriedly called a timeout and rearranged the lineup.

"Many players in the Trail Blazers are in a sluggish state today! Even veteran Kevin Garnett is no exception! And No. 30 Stephen Curry of the opposing Warriors is too scary. He has already made 4 three-pointers tonight.

It’s divided!” Yu Jia said in surprise.

"Who doesn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? The feel of this thing is very mysterious. Once it comes, how can you throw it?" Zhang Li said with a smile.

"The king is in danger. Now we can only hope for a timeout and the Blazers players will be able to feel better after returning." Yu Jia continued.

Zhang Lili didn't answer. He has decades of commentary experience and knows the situation of the Trail Blazers on the court very well.

If only a few players are in poor condition, it can be attributed to a small probability event; but if a large number of players are in poor condition, it can only be a high probability that the Trail Blazers really have a problem.

Return from the timeout and the game continues.

Looking around the arena, both sides have fielded their strongest lineups.

In terms of personnel configuration, the Trail Blazers have all their main players, and the Warriors' third position has been changed from Barnes to Iguodala.

"We must first do a good job of rebounding. When others take a shot, grab it if they can, and don't have to return to defense immediately. Also, those who attack and defend Stephen Curry must guard against his sudden three-point shot.

I need to stay close and change defense quickly, so I can't give him any room to take action..."

Before taking the field, Terry Stotts warned.

After just over half of the game, Curry already scored 17 points. He was definitely going for 30 or 40 points tonight.

Considering that the opponent just scored 54 points in a single game last season, even though they lost to the New York Knicks led by Agua in the end, Terry Stotts' initial dull mentality couldn't help but cause waves.

Is it going to overturn?

After receiving the ball on the sideline, the Trail Blazers players were in position, and Lillard made a tactical gesture.

Aldridge suddenly withdrew from the low post on the left wing, leaving David Lee half way to get the ball. The latter chased after him.

Wang Zelin started almost at the same time, rushing towards the basket from the low post on the right side. At the same time, he did not forget to caress BoGte's waist with his right hand, which made the latter's starting steps suddenly stagnant. He couldn't help but burst out with an Australian national curse.

exit.

As the organizer, Lillard was well prepared. After seeing Wang Zelin's position, he suddenly took a step back, lobbed the ball from Curry's head and flew to the right wing of the basket.

Wang Zelin jumped up to grab the ball and dunked it back with one hand.

"boom!"

64:54, the score difference is still 10 points.

"This tactic works. Aldridge pulls out and uses his own shooting threat to bring out David Lee. The King cuts in at the same time. With every pull, he squeezes through the Warriors' defense like a saw." Yu

Jia said excitedly.

Warriors attack.

At the top of the arc, Curry called David Lee to pick and roll as usual, and then broke through to the paint area.

Lillard failed to keep up, and Aldridge returned to defense in time.

At this time, Curry faced Aldridge's cover and passed the ball to David Lee outside.

David Lee caught the ball, shot from the three-point line, and hit a goal.

At 67:54, the Trail Blazers trailed by 13 points.

"Oh ho ho! David also scored a three-pointer. Rick, did you see it? This should be the seventh three-pointer scored by the Warriors tonight. Stephen has 4, Klay has 2, and David has 1.

." Mullin smiled.

"I'm not blind," Mr. Barry rolled his eyes and continued: "It seems that God is on our side tonight. The Trail Blazers opposite us have five fewer three-pointers than us!"

Chaotingtai live broadcast room.

"There is an obvious height difference between Lillard and David Lee, and the latter seems to have a very good touch. It is normal for him to be unable to guard." Yu Jia shook his head.

"This is hopeless. The Blazers should pay more attention to their opponents' three-pointers!" Zhang Li said.

The Blazers' offense was wide open.

With BoGt stuck aside, Wang Zelin received the ball in the short corner area of ​​the right wing and began to play inside.

After a few moments, Wang Zelin easily carried BoGt one step outside the paint area, then turned over and shot a jumper, hitting a goal.

"Andrew's weight and strength are at a disadvantage. The Trail Blazers No. 36 is currently at the fifth position. It can be said that he is notifying all opposing players." Barry said.

"It's okay, we just need to return a three-pointer." Mullin said confidently.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As if to confirm what he said, the Warriors counterattacked, and Curry suddenly stopped one meter away from the three-point line. At this time, Lillard, who was preventing him, was

Stepping on the edge of the three-point line, maybe Lillard thinks this is a safe area.

Unfortunately, Curry took action. Everything happened so suddenly that Lillard didn't even have time to express a panic expression. The "swish" sound of the basketball passing through the net was heard behind him.

"Stephen~~Curry!!!"

The host DJ was completely crazy.

Curry's three-point shooting point has to be taken one step back, to the position of the Warriors' home logo.

"Fake! Hahahaha! Chris, please tell me, this is not true! Stephen actually hit a three-pointer from such a distance. He must be too brave!"

Old Barry started dancing excitedly.

"You read that right, Rick, this is real, this shit is actually real..." Mullin kept mumbling to himself.

The Warriors are coming out, and Curry is coming out.

When the Trail Blazers had not recovered, Curry and Klay then added two more three-pointers for the Warriors.

76:56, the score difference was instantly opened to 20 points.

This kind of scoring efficiency caught Wang Zelin's eyes, and he couldn't sit still. Just after halftime, Lillard, who was holding the ball, immediately asked the referee for a 100-second timeout.

Beep~~~

The Trail Blazers were stopped again.

"Wang, don't be anxious. There's still half a quarter, and we still have a chance." Terry Stotts didn't notice anything was wrong, but instead encouraged Wang Zelin.

"Mr. Stotts, didn't you realize how big the score difference is? Didn't you realize that Warrior No. 30 has already made 6 three-pointers, and he already has 23 points!"

Wang Zelin almost roared, which shocked all the Blazers.

20 points difference?

6 three-pointers?

The Warriors scored 23 points on the 30th?

Suddenly looking back, everyone realized that the team's situation was extremely difficult.

Who said three-pointers can't kill?

At this moment, Terry Stotts and his players felt the fatal threat from a three-pointer for the first time.

In fact, as early as last season, when Curry's total number of three-pointers reached an unprecedented 600 in a single season, some people have gradually realized that what looks like a simple three-pointer actually contains a huge threat.

However, the Warriors led by Curry did not go far in the playoffs and stopped in one round. In addition, during the regular season, Curry scored more than 50 points for the first time in his career, but the Warriors lost to the Knicks.

After scoring 54 points but losing the game, Curry, who made 11 of 13 three-pointers that night, caused a moment of heated discussion, but it did not really arouse the vigilance of other teams.

It's amazing to praise "Stephen Curry is a rare and excellent three-point shooter", but in fact not many people still regard this Warriors team as a serious problem.

But Wang Zelin knows that starting from this season, there will be many old stereotypes in the league that will be completely overturned by this Warriors.

The first thing to bear the brunt of is: three-pointers cannot kill the game!

Strictly speaking, Curry's current strength changes are not much different from last season, and he is still at the All-Star level. What can make the Warriors change like this is largely due to the growth of another guy - Klay Thompson!
