At this time, almost all the Tianchao fans roared and shouted excitedly.
"Mist grass!"
"Dunking on someone, it's inhumane!"
"It's so outrageous. It's so frustrating to see that Barnes, who was doing a little trick, was directly overthrown!"
At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded, pointing at Barnes.
Not only is the goal valid, but a penalty kick is also added.
Wang Zelin was already planning to walk to the free throw line, but he and Barnes were still lying in front of the baseline photographer and did not stand up.
Speights rushed over and tried to pull him up, but Barnes lay straight on the floor and made no move to get up.
His eyes were closed tightly and he remained motionless.
Speights thought it was an action made by Barnes to express his dissatisfaction. It wouldn't be like this if he was knocked to the ground by Wang Zelin, right?
"Hey, man, stop playing around, get up, it's our turn to attack."
He called out and took hold of Barnes' hand.
Then as soon as he pulled it up, Barnes didn't respond at all, and his hand naturally dropped again.
Speights patted Barnes on the chest again: "Stop it, man, get up quickly!"
As a result, Barnes still didn't respond. Now Speights really panicked and shouted to the coach and team doctor on the sidelines: "Come and save him, he's unresponsive!"
What happened again?
The outburst was so unexpected that the referee, who was about to call the Warriors a serving violation, was shocked and quickly stopped the game.
The team doctor quickly ran over, half-knelt in front of Speights, and began to check Barnes' breathing and heartbeat.
Fortunately, my heartbeat and breathing are still there!
After preliminary diagnosis by the team doctor, Barnes fell into a brief coma, mainly due to a concussion caused by his head hitting the floor after the collision with Wang Zelin.
Fainting like this usually recovers quickly.
There have been similar cases before. For example, during a game between the Nuggets and the Thunder on April 8, 2010, the Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony suddenly passed out and became motionless on the court in the third quarter.
At that time, many people thought he was acting to protest the referee's unfair penalty, but after half a minute he was still motionless, and his teammates quickly carried him to the bedside for rescue and revived him.
According to Anthony's post-game interview, he really passed out and woke up surrounded by people.
At that time, Ty Lawson, the head guard of the Nuggets, also said with lingering fear: "I thought our boss was dead, but fortunately the team doctor arrived in time..."
After hearing the explanation from the team doctor, the surrounding Warriors players temporarily relaxed their hearts and gathered around to pray for Barnes.
Sure enough, after more than 20 seconds, Barnes woke up. When he saw that he was surrounded by teammates and coaches, his expression looked particularly confused: "What's wrong with me? Where is this?"
When he asked this question, all the Warriors players around him were shocked.
Why did you lose your memory after playing a good game?
The team doctor quickly told everyone not to panic. Usually people faint due to concussion. When they wake up, they may experience temporary amnesia, but they can recover quickly.
But in the NBA, if you have a concussion, you can't play again.
So he quickly asked assistants to carry a stretcher, and everyone worked together to move Barnes onto the stretcher and walked into the player tunnel for further examination.
This scene stunned everyone present, and all their eyes turned to Wang Zelin in front of the Trail Blazers bench.
It was exaggerated enough to complete a dunk while hanging on to the defender, but now he actually knocked someone out and gave him a concussion?
Is this guy an animal?
After Barnes was sent away, the game continued.
In desperation, the Warriors could only send Iguodala to the third position in advance.
But as a result, the Warriors are missing another general, and the hope of a comeback has become increasingly slim.
More importantly, the subsequent impact of Wang Zelin's dunk was so exaggerated that it made the Warriors players extremely fearful and did not dare to rush to the basket.
Soon, after the first quarter of the game, the Trail Blazers temporarily led the Warriors by 3 points.
11 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks!
"Returning from injury" Wang Zelin perfectly interpreted what the return of the king means, and contributed a direct and dazzling all-round data in a single quarter.
When the timeout ended, almost all the photographers and cameras on the scene were focused on the center of the field, on the man wearing thick protective gear under his jersey.
He is like a needle that stabilizes the sea. As long as he is there, no matter how powerful the enemies the Trail Blazers face, there will only be one outcome for these enemies, and that is - return with a disastrous defeat!
After a short break, the game restarted. Wang Zelin's home fans stretched out their arms amidst the overwhelming cheers, waiting for the Warriors players to attack.
Affected by the first quarter, everyone on the Warriors was still somewhat intimidated. Even if Wang Zelin stood there and did nothing, he could still give his opponents a sense of oppression like a ray of light on their backs.
Curry cautiously approached Livingston, who came on the bench, and then observed the situation on the court.
At this time, Iguodala came out and was ready to catch the ball.
This Coffin Mamba has a very strong psychological quality and is not overly afraid of Wang Zelin's edge like other teammates.
Instead, he wanted to make trouble on Wang Zelin's head!
Indeed, in the past few years since he came to the Warriors, Iguodala has always been accustomed to pretending to be dead during the regular season. But don't forget that he was once one of the most athletic third-position players in the league.
75 people have unlimited expectations for this little AI!
Iguodala used the off-ball screen to come around, received the pass from Curry, showed no mercy, and made a decisive long shot...
"Snapped!"
A figure suddenly appeared, completely covering Iguodala, and then slapped him hard.
Iguodala's shot was slapped directly out of bounds.
The sound in the audience stopped for three seconds, and even more enthusiastic cheers spewed out:
"!"
Miller was full of emotions: "This is the king, the defensive pressure is everywhere!"
O'Neal said: "He blocked a shot for the third time on the spot. Wang's condition today is so good! Kenny, you are going to lose. Lei Jie, let's get ready for a feast tonight!"
Miller also laughed out loud: "Hahahaha, I can't wait."
In the following time, Wang Zelin did not rest for another minute and played the entire first half.
Lillard did not give in too much, and only took a two-minute rest in the middle. When coach Terry realized that Beverley's defense was not enough to limit Curry's hot state tonight, he quickly made lineup adjustments. The two sides were purely fighting for firepower.
Export and launch an offensive battle.
The difference is that with Wang Zelin here, the Trail Blazers have a certain degree of protection on the defensive end, no matter how rough they play.
The Warriors were different. They lost high-quality defenders such as Green and Barnes one after another. Inside, BoGate, Sibes, Ezeli and veteran Varejao were sent on the court in turns to fuck them all, without exception.
Being controlled by Wang Zelin.
As a result, not only are the Warriors' rebounds unprotected, but their on-court defensive efficiency is not as good as the previous top five in the league.
After the first half, the Splash Brothers desperately counterattacked, and the Warriors' forwards tried their best to double-team Wang Zelin, but the rest of the Trail Blazers were not vegetarians. The other two core players Lillard and Aldridge stepped forward in time to give Wang Zelin great help.
.
At halftime, the Trail Blazers' lead expanded to 7 points!
Among them, Wang Zelin alone had terrifying statistics of rebounds, 4 blocks, 4 assists and 1 steal!
