Entering the second half, the Warriors had no intention of giving up the game and still showed their main lineup.
In this case, Coach Terry also took advantage of the situation and closed the door to let Wang Zelin go... ahem, he also sent out the main lineup to challenge.
The Warriors took the lead in attacking. Curry used the pick-and-roll breakthrough to attract the inside and the ball after being double-teamed. Thompson received the ball from the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right side, shot a three-pointer, and made a steady hit.
The score difference is still huge.
The ball transitions and the Blazers attack.
Lillard organized the attack, and Aldridge immediately offered to pick and roll his teammates, then threw away the defense and ran to the left corner.
Lillard's breakthrough process was understood by the center, and he passed the ball without looking at anyone, accurately passing it to Aldridge outside the three-point line in the corner.
Behind Aldridge at this moment is the Warriors' bench.
When Cole saw Aldridge receiving the ball open in the corner, his expression was both shocked and angry, and he shouted: "Don't let him shoot!"
But Aldridge took off calmly and made a three-pointer under Cole's shout, and took the shot decisively.
"Whoosh!"
The basketball drew a wonderful arc in the air, hit the net hollowly, and shot through the heart.
The point difference remains the same.
During the playoffs, Aldridge averaged two three-pointers per game, with a shooting percentage of around 38%. He is an outside firepower that must not be let go.
This goal can only be said to be careless on the part of the Warriors.
Immediately afterwards, the Warriors continued to attack.
It's Thompson again. After running without the ball, he runs from the left side of the three-pointer to the right line. He passes hand-to-hand with Green at the top of the arc. After getting the ball, he takes a quick shot with the help of a short screen.
"Whoosh!"
the second.
As Thompson hit his second consecutive three-pointer, it barely gave the Warriors players a shot in the arm, but it was far from enough, because the Warriors still trailed the Trail Blazers by 23 points.
Next ball.
Wang Zelin was double-teamed by the Warriors as soon as he caught the ball. However, this time Aldridge failed to score a three-pointer. Green desperately grabbed the backboard, quickly transferred the ball to Curry, and took advantage of the situation.
It was the connection between the splash brothers again. Curry pretended to be a sheep, attracted the defense and passed to Thompson in the right corner. The latter caught the ball and swayed away. Batum made a save and hit the three-pointer again.
"Whoosh!"
Thompson scored three consecutive points and quickly scored 9 points.
At the same time, his personal score in this game also reached 20 points.
etc……
Something always feels wrong.
Seeing Thompson hit three-pointers one after another, reducing the difference between the two sides to 20 points, Wang Zelin had a bad premonition in his heart.
After serving the ball in the backcourt, this time the Trail Blazers chose to play it steady.
Lillard leads a new offensive organization from the outside, and this time it is Wang Zelin who plays the pick-and-roll with him.
The next scene took everyone by surprise.
After the pick-and-roll, as soon as Wang Zelin turned around, Curry, BoGt, and Barnes directly surrounded him, not giving him any chance to catch the ball.
Damn it!
Do you want to be so heartbroken?
Wang Zelin complained in his heart.
Seeing this, Lillard didn't hesitate and rushed toward the penalty area decisively, taking off for a dunk.
"Snapped!"
The next moment, a figure shot out from the flank and blocked Lillard's shot.
"It's Green! He blocked Damian Lillard's dunk, and the Warriors got another chance to counterattack on a fast break!"
During this period, it was rare for the Warriors to hit a few decent shots, which caused the fans on the sidelines to roar and howl.
Wang Zelin retreated quickly, and his goal was clear, directly targeting the Warriors' No. 11, Klay Thompson!
Because he wanted to use this ball to verify his hunch.
Sure enough, when they came to the frontcourt, the Splash Brothers made another cross screen. Thompson turned back and ran away to get rid of Barnes' defense. He received a pass from Curry for a three-pointer and pulled up again...
"You don't take me seriously enough!"
Suddenly, there was a roar in Thomson's ears, followed by a strong wind.
He took a closer look and saw that Trail Blazers No. 36 jumped up at some point and covered his shot.
Why is this guy here?
Thomson had a flash of confusion in his heart, but time did not wait for him. Faced with Wang Zelin's serious interference, he had to adjust his posture at the last moment before taking action, and changed to leaning back to take action.
This fadeaway three-pointer narrowly escaped Wang Zelin's block and flew from his finger to the basket.
As soon as he landed, Wang Zelin immediately turned around and rushed for the rebound...
"Whoosh!"
TMD, is this also available?
At this moment, he couldn't bear it anymore and cursed in his heart.
Suddenly, the entire Oracle Arena was boiling, and all the Warriors fans stood up, making a roar.
On the Warriors bench, Kerr, Ying Guodala and others jumped up with excitement, while David Lee and Barbosa excitedly waved the towels in their hands.
On the Trail Blazers side, Coach Terry quickly called a timeout. Thompson's consecutive three-pointers exceeded his expectations, and the last difficult three-pointer made against Wang Zelin's defense almost made his jaw drop.
.
Is No. 11 on the opposite side going crazy?
At this moment, this was the only thought left in his mind.
As early as the end of January this year, an earth-shattering event happened in the NBA.
In a game between the Warriors and the Kings at home, Thompson was in excellent form. In the third quarter, he hit all 13 shots and made an astonishing 9 of 9 three-pointers. He scored 37 points in a single quarter. In this way, he broke the previous record.
The record of 33 points in a single quarter was jointly set by "Melo" Carmelo Anthony and "Iceman" George Gervin.
After this game, Klay Thompson, who scored 37 points in a single quarter, officially became a representative figure in the history of the NBA with a concentrated burst of firepower in a short period of time.
Since then, no one dared to underestimate the Warriors' 11 players.
After returning to the bench, Wang Zelin, who verified his guess, had only one word left in his mind:
G6 soup appears!
Sure enough, setting the flag in advance is not a good thing.
Fortunately, he had just thought that as long as nothing unexpected happened, this series would end tonight.
As a result, he was slapped in the face so quickly.
Immediately, he asked the system to check Thomson's game status at this time. When he found that there was a bracket and three question marks after Thompson's ability evaluation column, he knew that Thompson had entered the famous "Buddha's Light".
state.
To put it bluntly, Tang Shen is about to go berserk.
No, it’s not that I want to, I’ve already gone berserk.
Thinking of the four three-pointers just now, Wang Zelin stood up decisively and proposed to Coach Terry the strategy of double-teaming Thompson.
"Wang, it's not that time yet! Are you overthinking it?"
Although Coach Terry had doubts about Wang Zelin's proposal, he still didn't take it to heart.
How much do I think?
I'm afraid you haven't seen the horror of the G6 Desperate Soup in later generations. Once that thing is accurate, even gods can't stop it.
Therefore, after realizing that Coach Terry didn't care, Wang Zelin's attitude immediately became tougher:
"No, coach, I know exactly what I am thinking now. The No. 11 on the opposite side may really have the ability to rewrite the game tonight! Because I found that the guy's current feel and state are different from mine in the last game.
