At the end of the first quarter, the score displayed on the big screen was 32 to 24, with the Warriors leading by 8 points.

Under the strong performance of Sun Yi and Curry, the Warriors were always in the lead and suppressed the Knicks.

Anthony and Stoudemire's performance in the first quarter was quite satisfactory. They worked independently without any effective cooperation, which prevented the Knicks from exerting their strongest strength.

Moreover, the Knicks urgently need a good defender to link up the team's offense in order to maximize their run-and-gun tactics.

During the break, Knicks head coach D'Antoni needs to address these issues.

Not long after, the inter-section break ended and the second quarter began.

The Knicks' lineup is: Douglas, Bill Walker, Anthony, Sheldon Williams, Turiaf.

The lineup sent by the Warriors is: Bledsoe, Tony Allen, Reggie Williams, Sun Yi, and A Lian.

The advantage of this lineup is that it is very mobile, can quickly change defenses and supplement defenses, and has a very balanced offense and defense.

The Knicks served from the baseline. After receiving the ball, Douglas quickly dribbled forward, came to the frontcourt and passed the ball out.

In the high post area on the right, Anthony received the pass, turned around and faced the defender head-on, assumed a three-threat posture, read the defense and made the next offensive decision.

Instead of Sun Yi guarding him, Melo doesn't have so much pressure and can handle the ball calmly.

Reggie Williams felt overwhelmed when he saw Anthony's realistic triple threat action.

He watched Sun Yi easily restrain Anthony from the court, thinking that he could do it even if it was just that.

But when he actually faced him, Reggie Williams realized how strong his team's new boss was.

Melo took a tentative step, and when he saw Reggie Williams sinking, he immediately retracted his tentative foot, jumped up and shot.

Reggie Williams reacted quickly and immediately rushed to interfere, but it was too late, and the interference effect was minimal.

"Whoosh!"

The basketball went through the net bag in response!

32:26!

Ah Lian quickly picked up the basketball on the floor, stepped out of the baseline and served the ball.

Bledsoe took the ball a few steps and immediately passed the ball forward to the right.

Sun Yi, who was on a fast break, received the pass, and with the bonus effect of the badge [King of Counterattack], he rushed towards the Knicks penalty area like lightning.

Anthony, Turiaf and others immediately retreated towards the penalty area, preparing to help defend and double-team Sun Yi.

After attracting most of the Knicks' defensive attention, Sun Yi threw the ball behind his head and then turned around and left.

Ah Lian followed up and received the pass. Seeing that there was no defender in front of him, he made a long jumper.

The cooperation of the national team was once again demonstrated in NBA games.

Domestic fans watching this game on TV were extremely excited when they saw this scene.

Returning to the court, Douglas dribbled to the top of the key, observed the position of his teammates, and passed the ball.

In the low post area on the right, Anthony received the pass with Reggie Williams behind him, lowered his shoulders and lowered his center of gravity, then raised his butt and pushed it step by step to the right edge of the penalty area.

Reggie Williams felt miserable. He really couldn't stand it and really wanted to switch defenses with Sun Yi.

Melo suddenly used his strength to squeeze away from Reggie Williams, pulled away and then turned over and hit a jumper.

34:28!

On the Knicks bench, head coach D'Antoni smiled.

As long as Anthony plays normally, the Knicks have hope of defeating the Warriors.

On the court, Sun Yi called his teammates together and briefly explained a few words.

"Tony, you and Reggie switch defenses, and I will help you defend at the appropriate time."

Teacher Tony nodded to express his understanding, and Reggie Williams almost cried with joy after hearing this, finally waiting for this sentence.

Seeing that his teammates did not express any opinions, Sun Yi continued: "Next, we will use No. 2 singles tactics, leave the area near the penalty area in the air, and be ready to catch the ball and shoot at the same time."

The other Warriors players nodded, knowing how to play the next game.

After Sun Yi finished explaining, he quickly ran towards the frontcourt and participated in the attack.

After receiving the ball from the baseline, Bledsoe quickly dribbled forward and went outside the three-point line to observe the position of his teammates.

UAE ran from the penalty area to the right corner and took Turiaf out of the penalty area.

Reggie Williams stood outside the right three-point line waiting to catch the ball and shoot.

Teacher Tony has no offensive ability and can only roam around the outside, always ready to cut towards the basket.

As the core of the offense, Sun Yi quickly came to the low post area on the left and leaned against Sheldon Williams to reach for the ball.

On the Knicks bench, head coach D'Antoni saw this situation and secretly felt terrible. He immediately got up and came to the sidelines and shouted loudly towards the court.

"Double-team! Hurry up and double-team!"

After the Knicks players on the court heard the coach's roar, they immediately carried out the order, but it was too late.

After receiving the pass, Sun Yi leaned against Sheldon Williams, then immediately turned over and shot a fadeaway jumper.

A swish sound!

Hollow into the net!

36:28!

The audience immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.

Looking back, Anthony came to the mid-range area on the right side to play singles with the ball. Seeing that it was Teacher Tony who was guarding him, he immediately pulled up and shot after the triple threat.

Teacher Tony defended very well and immediately rushed to interfere. However, due to the height difference between the two of them being about 10 centimeters, the interference effect was not ideal.

The basketball bounced off the rim and fell into the net.

36:30!

The Warriors responded immediately. Sun Yi continued to play in the low post, attracting double-teams and then rushed the ball into the gap and passed it out.

Teacher Tony, who cut in from the center into the penalty area, received the pass, rushed to the basket and flew for a layup.

Immediately afterwards, Anthony broke through with the ball, but was interfered by Sun Yi's defense and failed to score a layup.

The Warriors protected the backcourt rebounds and launched a defensive counterattack.

Sun Yi accelerated his dribbling toward the frontcourt, passing Knicks players one after another. When he came to the free throw line and saw Douglas defending him, he picked up the ball and threw it without any hesitation.

Douglas rushed forward with all his strength and stretched his arms to interfere, but the effect was minimal.

"Whoosh!"

The basketball hit the net and made a steady hit!

"Once there is a mismatch, it is equivalent to giving points to Sun Yi. His pull-up jump shot is so stable." Barkley praised without hesitation.

Back on the court, Douglas used Turiaf's screen to break through to the mid-range area on the right and hit a jump shot to recover 2 points.

In the next few rounds, both sides increased their defensive intensity and increased confrontation, which caused their respective shooting percentages to decline.

When the second quarter lasted for about 5 minutes, the head coaches of both teams replaced the main players one after another.

After substitution adjustments, the Warriors attack.

Curry dribbled the ball forward to the frontcourt, continuously crossed over to shake Felton's center of gravity, immediately connected with the behind-the-back dribble, changed hands and changed direction to rush into the three-point line on the other side.

Stoudemire, who was standing near the penalty area, immediately retreated to the basket to defend.

The elementary school student broke into the penalty area, faked a pass, diverted Stoudemire's defensive attention, and quickly rushed to the basket and scored a layup.

The ball transitions and the Knicks attack.

Felton and Stoudemire played a pick-and-roll.

After blocking the pass, Stoudemire received Fatton's ground pass, rushed into the penalty area and completed a one-handed dunk.

The Warriors quickly served the baseline ball and launched a fast break.

Curry dribbled the ball quickly across half court and passed the ball.

Sun Yi, who was on a fast break, received the pass, rushed into the penalty area to attract the defense, and then released the ball.

David Lee, who followed up, received the pass and flexibly avoided interference for a layup.

Not to be outdone, the Knicks played run-and-gun.

During the transition period between offense and defense, Anthony hit a difficult jumper against Sun Yi's defense.

Immediately afterwards, Curry dribbled to a position half a meter outside the three-point line. Seeing that Fatton did not step forward to defend, he directly shot a long three-pointer.

This guy's waves will fly after he hits the mark!

Bang!

The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!

Sun Yi rushed to the basket at full speed, predicted the landing point of the basketball, jumped up hard to grab the offensive rebound, rushed to the basket after landing, and after physical contact with Stoudemire, he threw the ball towards the backboard.
