Chapter 752 Buddhas Light Arrives, Final Change of Formation
Is it because I was blocked?
No, it's not that simple.
Could it be...that defensive end No. 36 broke out!
Suddenly, a terrible thought flashed through Curry's mind.
Although it was unlikely, apart from the explosion, he really couldn't understand why he was guarded just now.
Whether it was the timing of the cut or the point of release, Curry asked himself that he had reached the limit, but his offense was caught by No. 36.
The primary school students expressed dissatisfaction!
However, he also knows that now is the critical moment, which tests his psychological quality even more, and he must not be more anxious than his opponent.
Next, the Warriors must play steadily and quickly tie the score.
The game continued, the Warriors' offensive rhythm was still very fast, but the Trail Blazers, who understood, were not slow to respond. The court was full of young guys, and Aldridge, who was relatively slow-footed, was at the peak of his physical and technical skills.
After following Wang Zelin's example, he was highly motivated to defend.
Moreover, Lillard and the others only need to be responsible for the outside now, leaving Wang Zelin within the three-point line. This makes their defensive pressure much easier than in the third quarter. They follow every Warriors player outside the three-point line in real time, trying their best to
Disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Yingodala and Green continuously moved the ball and created opportunities for the Splash Brothers. With one hit, Thomson cut to the basket from the free throw line.
"Why do you feel so relaxed?"
At the moment of the cut, a strange thought suddenly occurred to Thompson.
He always felt that the Trail Blazers' perimeter defensive pressure was lower in this quarter than before. Was it a mistake?
But this shouldn't be the case, the opponent is the defending champion.
But time waits for no time. Now that the opportunity has appeared, Thompson didn't care so much after rushing up, and his eyes only focused on the basket not far away.
"Want a layup? Dream on!"
Thomson successfully took off and sent the ball out. Just when the basketball was about to hit the basket, Wang Zelin suddenly came out from behind Thompson and slapped the basketball.
"Peng!"
The basketball hit the backboard and bounced out.
"Wow! What a great shot! The king nailed Thompson, Lillard collected the rebound and quickly pushed forward to counterattack. Lillard wanted to go up in the penalty area by himself? No, he chose to pass the ball..."
"Oh ho ho! The connection between Lillard and the king, the king followed up and dunked with both hands, and it was a counterattack!"
"7:0 start! The Trail Blazers are about to take off!"
Teacher Su Yu gave a quick explanation.
Then, the camera noticed that in front of the Warriors bench, Cole had stood up from the fishing platform and came to the sidelines to pace back and forth.
It seems that Cole, who is stable, can't sit still anymore.
frontcourt.
The Five Warriors showed off their power again.
The more patient passing of the ball and the faster five-man movement suddenly caused cracks in the Trail Blazers' perimeter defense.
Now all five opponents on the court can shoot three-pointers, causing the seemingly impenetrable defense that the Trail Blazers had just built to collapse again.
Especially the team's No. 1 position, Lillard is not only the weakest defensive point among the Trail Blazers' current lineup, but when he encounters Curry, it is a bit like encountering a natural enemy. After continuous conduction and movement, he
Still lost track of the opponent.
"Shua——!"
In the left corner, Curry came out to catch the ball and hit a three-pointer.
Trail Blazers offense.
Wang Zelin caught the ball in the low post and was about to single out Green, but the Warriors immediately sent out a three-man double-team, blocking him one on the left, one on the right, and one in front.
This scene left everyone around stunned.
But as Wang Zelin's personal statistics for this game were shown on the big screen at the right time: rebounds, 7 assists, 6 blocks, and 1 steal!
Gift crab!
Wang Defa!
Facing the astonishing performance, everyone instantly understood the Warriors' defensive strategy.
Damn, this B is really perverted, there is no way to defend him without double-teaming!
The Warriors' double-team tactics came quickly and were so tight that Wang Zelin couldn't move and had to pass out.
His extraordinary height gave him an extremely wide field of vision. He locked Lillard at the top of the arc in an instant, raised the ball above his head and passed it out.
But at this moment, an accident happened.
"Steal! Accurate prediction from Stephen Curry! I was a little careless. It seems I need to remind him that Curry's current steal data ranks first in the league! Don't be fooled by his baby face.
, and underestimated his defense!"
Van Gundy was startled in the studio, and the Trail Blazers players on the court were already jumping anxiously.
Lillard never expected that he would become the first link in the team's system to be breached. He immediately caught up and followed Curry through the half.
Curry stood outside the three-point line. Just when everyone thought he wanted to steal a three-pointer, he suddenly passed the ball laterally...
Outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right, Thompson, wearing the No. 11 jersey, suddenly appeared, bang, received the pass, decisively pulled up and fired.
At this time, Patton, who was keeping an eye on him, also chased after him. The two of them jumped almost at the same time. Patton had already tried his best to stretch out his right hand, covering Thompson's entire field of vision.
Then……
"Beep~~Beep!"
Whistle.
Thompson twisted his body, lost balance and hit a three-pointer.
"Bang-swish!"
Three-pointer hit.
"This special cat can come in too!"
Patton's eyes widened, but Thompson's soft face became extremely indifferent at this moment. He didn't turn around until the basketball hit the net, gave Curry a high-five, and then walked to the free throw line.
As one of the splash brothers, Thompson's three-point shooting naturally has his own uniqueness.
When it comes to unreasonable three-pointers alone, if Curry is better at unlimited range, then Thompson is better at sudden bursts.
Once he feels great, he can completely ignore the defender!
The ball just now can be said to be a magic ball, but it is also a reflection of Thompson's personal ability.
The Buddha’s light shines everywhere, it’s no joke!
"Whoosh!"
As Thompson hit the extra free throw and scored four points successfully, people only reacted belatedly.
The Trail Blazers' seven-point lead was overtaken by two three-pointers!?
It turns out that the three-point shot is so strong that it is so unreasonable!
Immediately afterwards, Oracle Arena immediately erupted in cheers.
Curry and Thompson's consecutive three-pointers gave the Warriors another glimpse of victory.
Every Warriors fan at the scene stood up proudly and looked in the direction of the Trail Blazers, as if to say:
You see, this is the new era of basketball! The era of invincible centers has long passed, now it is the world of three-pointers!
Beep~
Coach Terry called a timeout. Two consecutive three-pointers from the opponent, especially Thompson's 3-1, were too demoralizing. I hope this timeout can cool down Thompson's hand.
Not only that, through these rounds, Coach Terry also saw the shortcomings of the team's defense on the field, and they had to change their formation.
This will be their last change tonight, or else they will fail.
