The ability of the Warriors' five small players to chase points is too terrifying, or it could be said that the ability to chase points from three-pointers is too powerful. It seems that no matter how many points are in front of them, they can easily recover it.
Even though Wang Zelin has descended from the gods tonight, his personal offensive efficiency is as high as 100%, and his defensive efficiency is close to full, he can't stand up to his opponent's three-point bandits!
The current offensive situation is similar to that of the Trail Blazers, who must maintain a steady stream of offensive output, and the Warriors can quickly catch up with three-pointers even if they occasionally lose power for one or two rounds.
After all, their enemy tonight is the team with the strongest three-point shooting in history!
Returning to the bench, with limited time, Coach Terry looked at Lillard and Aldridge meaningfully, and then made his own arrangements.
The two people who were nailed looked at each other, thinking deeply in their hearts. What seemed to be on their mind?
Sure enough, the next second I heard Coach Terry say: "Patrick, next you come on and play the No. 1 position."
Then, he calmly patted a Trail Blazers player next to him and said: "Boy, don't you really want to be in the limelight? Now the opportunity has come, live broadcast across the United States, the strongest opponent, it depends on whether you have the ability to grasp it Got it!"
"Come on, I hope you won't live up to the sweat on the training ground, let alone my expectations!"
The player sitting on the bench of the Trail Blazers nodded and stood up with a strong and energetic voice: "I understand, sir, I promise you, I will give everything I have next!"
"Well, go ahead!"
Before taking the field, the outside world was not optimistic about the Trail Blazers' heavy rain. Some netizens claimed that this game exposed the Blazers' true colors. They are not the strongest team in the Western Conference this season.
The strongest team in the Western Conference has become the Golden State Warriors, and a change of times has arrived.
"Hey! The Trail Blazers have changed their lineup, Coach Zhang. They have taken off two of their main players and replaced them with Beverley and rookie Harrell. What do you think?" Su Wei asked.
"Maybe he wants to strengthen his defense. Fortunately for Beverley, after all, he has proven that he can provide reliable defense for the Trail Blazers in the past two years. Among the strongest defensive lineups of the Trail Blazers in the past period, Let him play the No. 1 position!
As for Harrell, the rookie, I will..."
At the end of his speech, Zhang Lili shook his head slightly, saying that he didn't quite understand this change of formation.
The other end.
Tengxun Sports Network Live Room.
"It's over! Pioneer, this is a typical case of seeking medical treatment in a hurry!"
"Forget it about Beverly, who is the one with the afro on No. 5? Can any of the older brothers come out and explain?"
"That guy's name is Montrezl Harrell, he's the second-round pick of the Trail Blazers this year, and he's their only rookie player this year.
The biggest highlight of the draft report is that, with a height of 2.03 meters, he is average for playing inside, but his wingspan reaches an astonishing 2.24 meters. He is a typical short and brutal power forward with good defensive talent! Also, isn’t that right? Call it afro, call it dreadlocks, man!"
“Looking at it this way, it’s not bad!”
"Upstairs, they are talking about defensive talent, not defensive ability! No one can tell whether Harrell has redeemed his defensive talent at this stage."
"So let me just say, the Trail Blazers are probably crazy. They dare to trust a rookie at this time!"
On the scrolling barrage panel, a bunch of netizens were making comments about the Trail Blazers' changes, and most of them were cynics.
The scene at the Oracle Arena was also booed, thinking that the Trail Blazers' head was caught in the door this time when they made a substitution.
But in fact, this lineup was carefully prepared and studied by Coach Terry not long after the start of the new season.
As the league's top championship contending team, the Warriors specially prepared their secret weapon. Why didn't the Trail Blazers prepare secretly?
The core of this lineup is based on Wang Zelin's ultra-high output, coupled with four teammates with strong defense on the defensive end, which makes the team's defense directly full.
As for the offense, leave it to Wang Zelin, the scoring champion. Anyway, he is enough. With Lillard and Aldridge, the Blazers' offense will not be greatly improved. More of the offensive firepower will overflow.
.
Inspired by the 75ers' tactical system with Allen Iverson as the core at the beginning of that year, four people concentrated on defense and Iverson was responsible for the offense.
Relying on this simple and crude style of play, under the leadership of Iverson at his peak, the Philadelphia 75ers made it all the way to the finals, and even snatched a victory from the Lakers' OK combination.
But Wang Zelin is different from Iverson. While the former maintains his scoring-level skills, he also has a historical level of frame protection ability, truly dominating the game on both offense and defense.
Therefore, for this lineup, the Trail Blazers spent a lot of time practicing and adjusting in private, but it was also the first time for them to actually put it into actual combat like the Warriors.
So fans have no impression of this lineup at all.
Harrell, after being signed by the Trail Blazers in this year's draft, has been quietly contributing on the bench. He trains hard on weekdays and rarely talks nonsense. In the team system, he often plays with Jokic, and his offensive methods are mostly based on
He mainly attacks the basket, but his main job is still a blue-collar job.
However, as the season progresses, the more coach Terry trains this young man, the more he discovers the energy contained in his body.
Especially on the defensive end, after encountering a large number of opponents, Harrell has become one of the strongest defensive players on the bench. This has made Coach Terry once again raise his expectations for this rookie.
.
Therefore, a bold idea formed in Coach Terry's mind.
Just like when the team just acquired Beverley, he chose to use Wang Zelin as the core and boldly put Beverley at the No. 1 position to create the team's strongest defensive lineup.
This time, he will form a terrifying defensive lineup that ranks among the best in history!
Calculating the defensive lineup of the Trail Blazers, they have Wang Zelin in the interior who can almost compete with the strongest defender in history. Beverley has a defensive level at the 1st position. Batum at the 3rd position is also close to the defensive lineup.
The ultimate snake oil flanker of ability.
Now, he has trained a defensive genius like Harrell. As a result, the worst individual defender in the Trail Blazers' current lineup has actually become Will Barton.
It would be great if Matthews hadn't left, otherwise the defense of this lineup could be further strengthened!
Looking at this lineup that he put together with so much effort, Coach Terry still had a trace of regret in his heart, but soon the thought disappeared from his mind.
With the existing resources, he asked himself that he has achieved the ultimate within his capabilities. Next, let the Golden State Warriors' five deadliest players be the grindstone for my strongest defensive lineup!
Everyone will have different thoughts in their mind when they are in different positions.
If Wang Zelin and Lillard were not selected by the Trail Blazers, Coach Terry's initial coaching goal may just be to hope that he can lead the team to win a championship in his career.
But now, the Trail Blazers have become a team that has won two consecutive championships, and is about to establish a dynasty for three consecutive championships. How can his inner thoughts at this moment be the same as three years ago?
A higher stage broadens a longer-term vision and only gives birth to greater ambition!
Thinking of those legendary coaches in NBA history, and now that he is very likely to be alongside them, Coach Terry's face lights up with excitement.
Come on, Golden State Warriors, let's see who is the winner this season!
…
Over there with the Warriors.
"What kind of lineup is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
Yingodala looked at his teammate Green next to him in confusion.
"Who knows, there can't be a secret weapon hidden on the opposite side!" Green said with a disdainful smile: "In my opinion, this is just the last struggle! Don't worry, this doesn't change the fact that we will fight immediately
Explode their ending."
"Well, that's true."
Thompson on the left agreed with Green's words. It doesn't matter what the opponent's lineup is, just blow it up without thinking too much.
Basketball is a winner-take-all game.
As long as you can win, there is no need to be unreasonable!
Moreover, the Warriors are invincible this season. The players in the team have long developed an invincible aura. They all firmly believe that they are the strongest!
Tonight, the one whose golden body will be broken must be the opposite party!
Beep~~~
The referee blows the whistle and the game continues.
The Trail Blazers' offense is pretty much the same as before. Everyone knows that the biggest weakness of the Warriors' five small teams is the inside, so they try their best to transfer Wang Zelin inside to handle it.
Whether he is working alone or setting up a second pass, Wang Zelin has already scored 50 points in this game, and his shooting percentage is quite ridiculous, maintaining 100%. He is undoubtedly the most trustworthy person on the Trail Blazers field!
After a while, there was a bang from the Warriors basket, and the basket was blown open by No. 36 again.
It’s really hard to guard against it!
Green has now looked away. He really can't handle No. 36, but No. 36 can't handle their offense either, and that's enough.
Since I can't guard you, I'll use a stronger attack to crush you!
Green quickly served from the backcourt, Curry quickly advanced with the ball, and the other three were not slow in their steps. In less than four seconds, the entire Warriors team passed the half court and got into position, and then started running.
Super mobility is undoubtedly the strongest point of the Warriors' lineup, especially the ability to create space in passing and cutting, which is rare in history.
Once the five trots start, as long as they cooperate tacitly and conduct the ball so powerfully, it will be difficult for people to guard against them.
Halftime passed.
The Splash Brothers felt great tonight, so after Curry passed halftime, no one on the Trail Blazers dared to double-team him.
Because Curry's ability to play the ball is also very fast, and Thompson also made everyone in the Trail Blazers remember him with a difficult three-pointer just now.
The Warriors first played a high pick-and-roll. Ying Guodala broke through with the ball and met Harrell at the top of the right arc. Thompson stepped forward to cover him. Ying Guodala bypassed Harrell and hit the basket along the free throw line in the middle.
.
Beverley wants to make up defense?
The consciousness was very good, but the body shape almost failed to prevent it.
"Peng!"
After the violent collision, Yingodala shook off Beverley in the blink of an eye, tore apart the defense, stepped into the penalty area and leaped forward to complete the dunk.
Facing Yingodala who was already charging, Beverly knew he couldn't defend himself. In order not to incur a foul, he had no choice but to stand where he was and interfere as much as possible.
And just when Yingodala was about to dunk, with a swish sound, Wang Zelin moved sideways from the flank.
"Dang!"
He bent his knees and jumped up, his feet moving very fast as if they had been boosted. He jumped back first, flew toward Yingodala from the wing, and swung his big hand out, knocking the basketball out of Yingodala's hand.
"Oh my God, this can also be punished!"
The home commentator was shocked and said in amazement: "That's Yingodala who has completely charged up! How could this happen..."
Warriors bench.
Cole shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the team would be better off attacking the basket less often. The opponent's No. 36's ability to protect the basket was outrageous.
Sometimes he even feels that the defense displayed by No. 36 has even surpassed the inside players of this era.
“Nice hat!”
"Boss, you are so handsome!"
"..."
On the Trail Blazers bench, all the teammates were excited, and some could not help but wave their white towels wildly.
After Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound, he led a group of teammates to launch a fast break, but the Warriors returned to defense too quickly and the fast break failed.
Fall into positional warfare.
After Wang Zelin encountered defense in a low single, he made a wonderful pass to assist Harrell, who cut in, or opened and closed, with his hair flying, and dunked successfully, scoring his first goal of the game.
The Trail Blazers lead by 4 points.
Offense and defense transition.
Green received the ball in the backcourt and advanced quickly, trying to grab a chance. After a continuous run in the frontcourt, Thompson had an opportunity in the left corner.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, as soon as he raised his head after receiving the ball, he found another Trail Blazers player appearing next to him.
Among the five small lineups, Thomson was probably the one with the worst ability to control the ball, so he didn't mess around and passed it back to Green near the free throw line.
Green was about to catch the ball and make a mid-range shot when a player wearing the No. 5 jersey arrived quickly. Green wanted to break through, but he quickly encountered a strong obstacle.
Damn it, how could I be guarded by a rookie? He's not No. 36!
With a surge of anger, Green squeezed in another step, then suddenly heard a snap, and then his hand was empty.
The ball was touched by No. 5 in front of me!
Green tried to fight back, but the huge body of Trail Blazers No. 5 flew out and jumped towards the basketball.
He actually staged a flying dive? Do you want to work so hard?
The hard work of this rookie player from the Trail Blazers surprised everyone.
This ball immediately attracted many people from the Warriors to surround him. After all, it is not easy for a big man's body to get inertia, which gave the Warriors an opportunity to swarm forward.
The splash brothers all put their hands on the ball, trying to fight for it. But, I wonder, why is this guy holding the ball so tightly, he wants to stuff the ball into his stomach.
After a scramble, the referee on the sidelines couldn't stand it anymore and quickly gave the ball to the scrimmage.
This penalty is correct and there is no problem.
Then there’s the fight between Harrell and...Curry!
There was no suspense. Curry had just taken off and Harrell caught the ball.
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin caught the ball first and immediately rushed to the opposite half, attracting the defensive attention of a large number of Warriors players.
This was exactly what he wanted. He immediately passed the ball halfway to Batum, who hit a three-pointer.
The score difference has reached the familiar 7:0 lead again!
Then, the Warriors were forced to call a timeout.
