Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer behind him, Thompson felt a little panicked.
Through his performance in the past few seasons, Wang Zelin's shot-blocking ability is well-known in the league, making countless opponents fearful.
In addition to blocking shots when protecting the basket, chasing and blocking shots is also indispensable.
This is not the first time he has played against the Trail Blazers. Thompson knows very well how terrifying Wang Zelin's chasing and blocking ability is.
But this does not mean that he is afraid. He still has to attack the basket when he should. It's just that when he went to the layup, he did not directly choose to dunk or lay up.
Instead, after taking off, he still raises the ball with both hands in advance and feints a shot, then draws the lever back from his chest and finishes from the left.
However, Wang Zelin seemed to have predicted this in advance. When blocking the shot, he did not block it with one hand, but stretched out two hands at the same time, and then waved to both sides of the basket at the same time, left and right.
.
With one move, he hit the goal with two ghosts, and with an exaggerated wingspan of 2.34 meters, even though Thompson tried to pull the lever on his chest, his layup was still caught by Wang Zelin's left hand, and the basketball was directly pressed onto the backboard.
Chasing body nail board big hat!
Ignoring the shocked look on Thompson's face, Wang Zelin immediately came to his senses after grabbing the ball and headed forward.
Thompson recovered in time and kept chasing behind him. At the same time, Barnes was also blocking Wang Zelin in front.
Facing Barnes, Wang Zelin made a long pass to lock Patton at the three-point line in the left corner. After receiving the ball, the latter made a three-pointer without any defense.
"Wha—!"
He raised the knife and dropped it, hitting a three-pointer.
In this offensive and defensive round, Wang Zelin flew from the defensive line to chase the block, to faced Green's long pass in the middle circle, and finally the Blazers' General Patton made a three-pointer with his sword.
This is completely turning basketball into an art!
From defense to offense, from violence to elegance, it all brings a strong visual impact to the audience watching the ball.
In just two minutes, watching the Blazers' offensive and defensive performance gives people a beautiful enjoyment.
"9-0! The Trail Blazers had a fantastic start!"
&NIn the commentary box, Weber was full of surprises.
"Wang was amazing tonight. He served out hot pots continuously at the beginning. It seems like the Warriors players are going to eat hot pot until they vomit tonight!"
The big-mouthed Miller next to him also laughed.
Less than two minutes into the game, the team made mistakes one after another and was seized by the opponent to frequently break into fast breaks. Cole could no longer hold back and quickly got up to ask for a timeout.
This time, the Warriors fans on the sidelines could no longer shout. They all stared blankly at the Blazers players who were hugging each other and screaming wildly in celebration.
This is too outrageous!
Less than two minutes into the game, Livingston was intercepted, Curry was blocked, and Thompson was chased and blocked...
It gives the home fans a feeling: tonight we are not playing with people, but with God!
At least for just over a minute, the pace of the game on the court was completely dominated by the Trail Blazers, while the Warriors' performance was simply unbearable.
During the timeout, Trail Blazers fans gave high fives one by one to celebrate the Trail Blazers' dream start.
In contrast, on the Warriors bench, all the players looked solemn.
I thought that after the last big win, they could continue their performance and easily defeat the Trail Blazers again.
I never expected that I would be beaten 9:0 as soon as I started tonight!
In the first 1 minute and 38 seconds, they actually didn't even touch the Trail Blazers' basket once. The only Thompson who got on the board was a rebound after Wang Zelin made a big block.
Outrageous?
That is quite outrageous!
Shame?
What a shame!
After controlling his emotions, Cole glanced at the Warriors players, only to see Curry's eyes were filled with something called...
The raging flames of "anger" made him feel more and more uneasy, and he felt inexplicably unsteady.
"Stephen..."
Cole called out with doubt.
Curry raised his head and looked at the worry and uneasiness in the head coach's eyes. He immediately understood that something was wrong with his current state and he must adjust as soon as possible and must not be manipulated by anger.
As the star of the team, he can be angry, but he can never be just angry!
However, when he saw Wang Zelin surrounded by Trail Blazers players not far away, the anger he had just suppressed immediately came back to his heart...
Lychee, how do you want me to lychee?
My beloved team was so beaten by that guy, why do you want me to get lychees?
"Stephen!"
Seeing that Curry didn't move for a long time, Cole shouted again, this time the sound was louder.
After all, Curry is a smart man and knows when to do something. After repeated reminders, he did not speak and just nodded to the head coach.
The coach's gaze was enough to attract his attention, and it was also enough to make him reflect on the mistake he just made on the field.
He was actually angered by that guy Wang Zelin.
Even he himself was a little surprised, why was he so irrational today?
Taking a deep breath, his anger quickly subsided, and his eyes became clear again: It seems that it was because he paid too much attention to this game that he was so easily fooled by that guy Wang Zelin.
Seeing Curry calm down, Cole looked at Green again: "Draymond, we must be calmer, all of us must be calmer, and we must not handle the ball in a frizzy manner!"
"Also, after you play later, you have to look for more trouble with the Blazers' No. 5, just like you did in the last game, and find ways to anger him. In this way, the Blazers' defensive system will not attack itself.
broken……"
After all, it was just the beginning of the game, and with a few words from Cole, the Warriors' sluggish morale was quickly revived.
"Send them back to Portland to fish!"
Green nodded heavily, then raised his right fist high and shouted loudly.
Because Wang Zelin's previous performance was too explosive, the Oracle Arena was quiet for a while. Green's sudden roar was particularly loud in the arena.
Following his lead, several other Warriors role players immediately shouted out.
"Send the other person home!"
Seeing this scene, the home fans' morale was instantly boosted and they started shouting slogans.
"Hey, the Warriors' momentum has picked up. It seems they are not willing to be dominated by their opponents in the game!"
"Come on! Come on! I can't wait to see the Warriors' counterattack!"
"..."
The timeout ends and players from both sides return to the field.
After Curry came back, he relied on his superb off-ball movement skills and multiple screens from his teammates to get a fleeting open opportunity at 45 degrees on the left side and hit a three-pointer.
