This is a hint that Shuai Tang passed the ball to Westbrook.

When encountering double-teams, passing the ball is the best tactical choice. Curry's hint is like a friendly reminder.

But in fact, Tang Shuai knew, and Curry also knew that teammates, including Westbrook, did not have a good shooting feel. After this ball was split, Westbrook's shooting rate was lower than Tang Shuai's shooting rate. And once he did not choose to shoot, the Warriors' goal to prevent Tang Shuai from attacking with the ball will be achieved.

Tang Shuai did not choose to pass the ball.

He didn't even look at Westbrook's direction. The players are in poor form and it is not enough to just increase the shooting. He needs teammates to drive the state.

Curry was rushing over to double-team while saying this, and just before he rushed, Tang Shuai still chose to change direction to the left, leaning against Thompson, holding the ball in his left hand.

However, Curry was obviously faster without the ball. As soon as Tang Shuai broke through to the free throw line, Curry reached out from behind to prepare to copy the ball.

The fans on the sidelines were excited about the faces of the fans, and Curry had a high possibility of intercepting the ball.

However, before they could shout, Tang Shuai leaned against Thompson with his body, pulled the ball into his arms, and then turned to the right, avoiding Curry's steal, creating a space for himself to attack.

Thompson stopped and turned around to block the block, but the pace was obviously slower.

"Swish!"

Tang Shuai's back hit steadily.

After hitting, he waved his fist hard.

When he returned to defense, Westbrook came over and slapped him, and he was not angry about his failure to pass the ball.

After spending so long with him, Westbrook knew very well what his purpose was.

In fact, Tang Shuai's offense has helped the team's morale. When defending, Durant used his usual tricks again and wanted to force Mike Dermott. Just as he was about to take action, Yi Jianlian rushed out of the inside line and gritted his teeth and jumped up a block. Although he didn't get it, it successfully interfered with his attack.

"Bang!"

Durant failed to hit a jump shot, and Cousins ​​put the rebound in his arms.

After Cousins ​​took the rebound, he handed it to Tang Shuai. Tang Shuai did not play fast attack, but slowly advanced with the ball.

The Warriors' double-team was a bit thorough at this time. Before he reached the three-point line, the attack between Curry and Thompson was almost formed.

This time he chose to pass the ball to Westbrook and directly broke the double team.

After giving the ball, he did not stop. Under the instructions of Westbrook's tactical gesture, he and Mike Dermott ran backwards around the bottom line in the exam, one left and one right.

A series of pick-and-roll collisions with the body in the inside line suddenly showed a tendency to turn people on their backs.

However, Tang Shuai had the advantage in strength. He grabbed one and rushed out of the crowd. He went to the free throw line to catch Westbrook's pass, took a big step to the right, and then took a pull-out jump shot.

At this time, the basket was in chaos, and no one could care about him.

"Swish!"

With a crisp sound, his blow hit again.

Including the previous two times, he scored 6 points in a row after he came back from the timeout, which has already brought the score to 12-18.

In this process, the Warriors have adopted a series of defensive tactics of forcing passes and double-teaming, but none of them worked in the end.

The games on the court were extremely fierce, and the interaction between the audience off the court was one after another.

After this personal scoring surge, Lakers fans on Twitter began to launch a counterattack. A fan named "Kill King 0403" posted a message on Twitter that "Shistor Tang is not unable to score, he only scores when the team needs it", which aroused strong response from Lakers fans.

Tang Shuai scored consecutively on the offensive end. On the other hand, after a short scoring drought on the Warriors, Curry and Durant tried to stand up and continue the team's points, but at this time, the Lakers' morale was high on the defensive end, and they were defended by active running and restoration.

After playing for two more minutes in the first quarter, the Lakers had already tied the score 27-27.

Both sides enter the rotation time of the lineup.

During the opening game, the Warriors lost a lot in the substitute lineup, but after signing Dior and Matt Barnes with basic salary on the trade deadline, the substitute experience and strength have been greatly improved.

Without the original lineup advantage, the Lakers' substitutes failed to open the score like the opening game. The scores on the field increased alternately, and the two sides played extremely anxiously.

After the main force returned in the second half of the second quarter, Tang Shuai still had full firepower and relied on his own to fight against 4 for most of the quarter.

After halftime, he had already taken action, accounting for half of the team's shooting. With 15 shots, he contributed 36 points in the first half, which was a sign of an explosion.

But Tang Shuai himself knew that in such a high-intensity game with the Warriors, he had almost exhausted his energy after playing halftime.

Although he couldn't show it, if he played like this in the second half, he would never be able to hold on to the half.

Billups also discovered this. In fact, just a little attention can be paid to it and you will find that Tang Shuai's face is pale, which is a typical manifestation of excessive physical exhaustion.

During the halftime break, Billups cursed the players in an abnormal manner, especially Cousins ​​and Westbrook. Even if they were the core players of the team, he did not treat them differently at all.

The players were shocked and felt a little ashamed, especially Westbrook, who had always been strong, and felt very guilty about his performance in the first half.

It’s impossible not to scold, it’s impossible not to wake up, Billups’s scolding has had an unexpected effect.

After returning from the second half, Westbrook attacked the inside more frequently and grabbed offensive rebounds. As long as he had the chance, he would rush in desperately, regardless of the opponent's fouls. This gave him a lot of free throw opportunities, and through continuous free throws, he slowly regained his touch.

Cousins ​​was slowly driven, and the three giants worked together, and the Warriors' 4 was suddenly unbearable.

Especially for Tang Shuai, who is extremely powerful, the Warriors cannot limit him at all, and his passes are even more accurate. Last season, he brought a group of average teammates to the level of equal score with the Warriors. After adding Cousins ​​and Westbrook this season, the growth of strength is obviously more obvious than that of Bogut alone.

"Bang!"

After Cousins ​​received a pass from Tang Shuai and pressed Green to dunk the ball, the audience at the scene no longer knew how to express their emotions.

121 to 105, the score difference on the court was 16 points. The Warriors, who had the highest record in the league in regular season, played at this time, but there was no hope of winning.

At this time, there were only less than 2 minutes left before the end of the game. Seeing that there was no hope of winning, Cole had already replaced Curry and Durant in advance.

"color!"

The home audience finally cheered for the home team, but the members on the Warriors' bench all looked confused.

Curry habitually bit his braces, looking at the court without knowing what he was thinking. Durant wrapped his head in a towel and lowered his head. He could not understand what the difference between the two teams was.

PJ Tucker made a three-pointer in the last moment, and the Lakers players on the sidelines laughed and the game was final.

Tang Shuai was obviously the number one hero to win this game. With 42 shots, he contributed a game-high 54 points, and also had 3 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals, and his performance was absolutely versatile.

Cousins ​​and Westbrook, who woke up in the second half, also performed well. Although Cousins ​​didn't score many points and only scored 12 points, they grabbed a rebound, including 5 offensive rebounds in the second half. Westbrook scored only 6 points in the first half, and scored 20 points in the second half and finally scored the second highest 26 points in the team.

After winning the first game, the Lakers were in a strong morale. In the next second game of the two sides, although the Warriors were very hot in 4, the Lakers' Big Three were also in full swing and eventually won the game by 4 points.

After two games, the Lakers have already led 2-0 in the big score. Unlike last year, this seems to have become completely one-sided.

"The Warriors' members' mentality has collapsed. It is said that there was a fierce quarrel in the locker room after the game. Although I don't know which two star players were between them, they have no idea how to solve the situation in front of them after two consecutive years of difficulties." t.n.t's well-known commentator Kenny Smith said bluntly when doing the show.

The Warriors are leading 2-0 and the players are in good shape. The outside world speculates that the Lakers advance to the finals or even win the championship is a foregone conclusion.

The feng shui turns, and the praise the Lakers receive even exceeds all the sum of their regular season.

The Lakers players were also a little proud.

However, Tang Shuai seemed very calm. He believed that the Warriors would definitely not only have such strength. At least, Curry and Durant, two historical superstars, would definitely not admit defeat so easily.

ps: Recommended book "The King of Fighters" on the dial is a book about small forwards. The rhythm control of the writing is pretty good. You can go and have a look at the children's shoes for the waste of books. (To be continued.)
