Since Curry attacks so fiercely, Chen Feng will naturally take advantage of it. As long as he controls his body, Chen Feng is 80% sure to cause Curry a foul. As for the shot, it depends on how he feels. After all, for free throws, Chen Feng
Still very confident.
The whistle sounded, and Chen Feng was very happy! What made him even more happy was that after the basketball bounced on the basket, it still fell into the basket.
3+1!
"Oh!" Chen Feng's heart was instantly replaced by excitement, and he jumped up from the ground like a carp!
Looking at Dior who looked equally excited, Chen Feng said proudly: "Hey, Boris! What do you think?"
Dior: "..."
Chen Feng made a free throw, and Curry was already a little frustrated. After all, Chen Feng completed the 3+1 on himself, and the team fell behind by one point immediately. This was obviously not what the cute god wanted.
In the transition between offense and defense, Curry dribbled through Chen Feng's defense and went inside for a layup and scored two points. But looking back, the Warriors' defense had a big problem, and Diaw easily succeeded in a layup.
Mark Jackson frowned and asked for a timeout.
There is no doubt that Mark Jackson is an excellent coach. Being able to bring the Warriors into the playoffs has proven the Warriors' outstanding ability. But now it seems that compared to the Spurs, the league's top team
, there is still a big gap.
"We haven't lost yet. Defense, only defense can we make a complete comeback! Defense, do you understand?"
During the entire long timeout, Mark Jackson asked the team to defend. As for the offense, he believed that the Warriors had no big problem, but if the defense was not good, he could score, but if the opponent still scored, the point difference would be small.
It will shrink.
The Warriors have indeed strengthened their defense, but they lack a defensive leader on the outside. Facing the combined attack of Chen Feng and Ginobili, it is indeed impossible to defend against them!
At the end of the first half, the Spurs had already gained a point difference! So much so that two minutes before the end of the first half, Ginobili and Chen Feng were already playing on the court, making all kinds of gorgeous passes that were very difficult.
layup, and the shooting percentage was pretty good.
…
"Oh! Chen, you are awesome!" Diaw patted Chen Feng on the chest. Just in the second quarter of the game, Chen Feng scored 14 points in a single quarter. It was his explosion that helped the Spurs achieve an obvious victory.
Leading advantage.
A few people were fighting and making noise, but at this time **Vicci stood up with a dark face. The atmosphere in the locker room slowly became quiet, and everyone knew that **Vicchi seemed to be unhappy.
"Are you happy? The game is not over yet! Tactics, tactics, do you understand? I don't want to call a timeout during the game to remind you that in the second half we must pay attention to defense and keep the ball moving, do you understand?"
Chen Feng nodded, and then nodded! At the end of the first half of the game, he was indeed a little... ugh!
"This is not good..." Chen Feng told himself.
The Warriors' locker room seemed a bit dull, and Mark Jackson no longer knew what to say. He was the team's coach, but not the team's leader. He had done everything he could do, but the team
The problem of momentum cannot be solved by oneself at all. After all, it is not oneself who plays on it.
Curry was silent for a few minutes, and Mark Jackson felt that he couldn't bear it anymore. He would never lose confidence in Curry. He cultivated this woman with his own hands. But now, he is still a little disappointed! He feels that this
That's when the team boss comes to boost morale.
But before Mark Jackson could speak, Curry had already stood up. Looking at the brothers who all had their heads lowered, Curry took a deep breath.
"Do you think I'm destined to lose?"
Still no one said anything, or everyone agreed with Curry's statement. In the regular season, they could still play against the Spurs. Even if they lost, it was not so miserable. But after entering the playoffs
, these normally arrogant guys were completely shocked.
After all, the Warriors are still a young team!
Curry suddenly yelled at this time: "Did you ever think before the playoffs started that we could get to this point?"
"What is our goal?"
"Whose home field is this?"
"Who are the fans out there supporting?"
"Tell me, have you given up?"
Curry asked several questions in a row. Looking at his teammates, Curry continued: "I don't know what you think! But here, on our territory, I don't want us to give up! Even if we lose
, we haven’t been eliminated yet! Even if we are eliminated, we are still one of the four best teams in the league this season, right?”
Curry's words completely stimulated the Warriors players. Being young is indeed good! But when they have been playing all the way to now, they have forgotten the low profile they had when they just entered the playoffs, and they are a little presumptuous!
Now Curry's words, let them understand! Now that the Warriors can stand here, they are already one of the four best teams in the league.
No matter what the reason is, they got here! They have succeeded!
"Brothers, tell me, are you afraid?"
"No!"
"Of course not!"
"Don't be afraid!"
The momentum of the Warriors has begun to recover. At this time, Mark Jackson finally nodded with relief. Curry did not let himself down after all. His personal qualities have never let him down, and this time is the same.
"I have never lost confidence in you! Let's get back what we lost in the first half. Can we do it?" After saying this, Mark Jackson couldn't help but yell.
"Yes!" Everyone gathered around.
…
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Chen Feng stayed on the bench. However, he found that the Warriors had not lost confidence. Even though they were about one point behind, they still maintained strong confidence, just like when the game just started.
Same.
The Spurs' style of play is still the same, defend, counterattack, and if there is no counterattack, fall into position, and then evolve various different tactics on the court.
But the Warriors are indeed a strange team. As long as they can maintain their confidence, their instant scoring ability will definitely rank among the best in the league.
Curry takes the lead, Thompson, Barnes, Green plus Bogut, which means that Mark Jackson withdrew David Lee from the starting lineup in the second half, except for Bogut who is responsible for blocking the eyeballs and grabbing rebounds in the interior.
Especially, everyone else is a guy who can still make three-pointers from outside the three-point line.
At the beginning of the game, the Warriors hit three-pointers one after another! After 4 three-minutes, the Spurs were stopped directly! **Vicci didn't say anything. The timeout was not called because of the team's poor defense. In fact,
, everyone is working hard to defend.
What he has to do is to interrupt the opponent's almost devastating rhythm. He does not believe that the Warriors can always maintain this almost perfect three-point shooting ability!
When the game continued, **Vicci changed his formation!
Because the opponent had a lineup with one big team and four small ones, **Vic made adjustments accordingly! They used Duncan as the main player, then Leonard, Ginobili, Chen Feng, Tony Parker, three guards plus two
A forward.
This lineup moves faster and has stronger impact!
The two teams can be regarded as going head-to-head. What Vic means is very simple. It is not that he cannot accept the Warriors pulling the score back, but it must cause a certain degree of consumption to the opponent, and the Spurs have more players.
More, this is an advantage.
In the first round of the Spurs, all four players were separated, and then the basketball was handed to the inside for Duncan to play in isolation!
It is recognized that Tim Duncan has faded from his prime. But the old devil is not called for nothing. Bogut here was once called White Duncan because of his physical talent, but now the two of them have enough
One against one opportunity.
On the first shot, Duncan faced the frame at a 45-degree angle and scored a jump shot! Then he turned back to defend silently, with no expression on his face.
The Warriors' offense relies entirely on the outside, but now the Spurs' lineup has undergone targeted changes, and it has expanded greatly! In the end, Thompson missed a pull-up jumper!
The Spurs generals who looked back silently handed the basketball to Duncan in the paint for a single, and then pulled away one by one!
This time, Duncan played from behind and used his excellent footwork to dodge Bogut and then succeeded in a one-handed chop.
The next few minutes are all Duncan's performance time. Although some people say that he is old, Bogut will definitely not be able to guard Duncan in one-on-one situations.
Shi Buddha seemed to be demonstrating his personal singles ability, dressing up jump shots, mid-range shots, underhand layups after breakthroughs, footwork, etc.
Duncan made seven consecutive attacks and hit five of them. By then, the Warriors had begun double-teaming. But it was obviously a fake double-team and had little effect.
Jackson no longer knew what to say! He thought of those words again: "Why hasn't he retired yet?"
It is no longer a problem that can be explained by an old No. 1 pick who has been playing for 16 years and can still guarantee this kind of almost All-Star level edge.
In the end, the Spurs won the game on the road, and Duncan proved that his dominance was still there with points, 13 rebounds, and 3 blocks.
Chen Feng scored 26 points with his outstanding performance in the second quarter and was the second contributor to the Spurs' victory. After the game, the Spurs had a 3:1 lead by the first minute.
In other words, as long as the Spurs win one more game, they can wait for the arrival of Miami in the finals. (To be continued.)
