Curry hit three three-pointers in a row, and the Lakers immediately called a timeout.
After the timeout, the Lakers began to double-team Curry.
Facts have proved that giving Curry a chance to take action is courting death!
Although other Warriors' three-point shooting percentages are also very accurate, Curry is more accurate!
Moreover, Curry's three-pointers are extremely intimidating, and his shots are extremely fast. Many of them are super long three-pointers, which are extremely shocking visually!
Once Curry hit two long three-pointers, not only the fans, but also Curry's teammates immediately became passionate!
Most of the time, you play with great energy!
I just want to put the basketball into the basket!
I just won't let you put the basketball in the hoop!
No matter who you are, I will fight with you to the death!
As long as you have that energy, you can shoot decisively and defend with all your might!
As long as you are decisive on the offensive end and work hard on the defensive end, you can exert 10% or even 120% of your ability!
Curry is the fuel for the Warriors!
As soon as Curry opens up, the Warriors come alive!
As soon as Curry plays well, the Warriors explode!
When the Lakers double-team Curry, Azubuike and others will be happy!
The boss is here, now it's our turn!
Lopez doesn't just bounce out, but often moves forward, forcing the Lakers to help defend.
It's not okay to let a big center go down to the penalty area!
Compared with three-pointers, it is even more unbearable for a big center to dunk in the penalty area!
But as long as someone returns to the penalty area to help defend, there will definitely be space outside the Warriors.
For a time, the Warriors were raining down arrows!
In six minutes, the Warriors scored 23:9!
The Lakers had to call a timeout again.
Lagabell was about to play in 5 minutes, but ended up playing for an extra minute!
There was no way, the Warriors were playing smoothly, and Deng Fang didn't want to interrupt the rhythm.
After the timeout, the Lakers replaced Odom and replaced him with Blake.
Blake is a former player of the Trail Blazers. As a veteran point guard, his three-pointers are still reliable.
The Warriors also replaced Laga Bell and Lopez and replaced them with P.J. Tucker and Yi Jianlian.
There is no idle player on the Warriors, everyone has playing time!
Everyone needs to be ready to play!
Deng Fang is still very confident about Tucker. Tucker performed very well in the training camp, defended well, and was accurate in three-pointers from the corner.
It seems that Tucker is still very obedient and has completed the tasks assigned to him during the offseason quite well.
The only person Deng Fang was somewhat worried about was Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian has an introverted personality. He has been troubled by injuries in the past few years since he came to the NBA, and his confidence is not very high.
Although Deng Fang is here, whether Yi Jianlian can fight is still a question.
No one wants to be seen as a related party!
Everyone wants to make a name for themselves based on their own abilities!
Deng Fang gave Yi Jianlian two tasks during the offseason. One was to develop three-pointers, and the other was to strengthen strength training.
Yi Jianlian has always been a shooting power forward, and his role is to open up space for his teammates.
Therefore, Yi Jianlian's shooting has never been a big problem.
Yi Jianlian's shooting was inconsistent before, mainly because his playing time kept changing. Sometimes he started, sometimes he came on the bench, and he had to re-adapt to the team's tactics when he returned from injury.
Yi Jianlian originally had language communication problems, and the constant changes in the team's roles also made it difficult for him to find a rhythm.
Shooting requires rhythm and confidence.
However, no matter who you are, you need to play in a familiar rhythm.
Likewise, no matter who it is, confidence cannot arise out of thin air.
What Deng Fang has to do is to give Yi Jianlian a rhythm that suits him and help Yi Jianlian find confidence.
In addition, Yi Jianlian's physical fitness is quite excellent, and his running and jumping ability is much better than Yao Ming!
His only problem is that he lacks strength, making it difficult to defend the opponent's big center in the paint alone.
In other teams, Yi Jianlian often needs to defend the opponent's inside players alone, which makes him very uncomfortable.
He won't need to do that when he comes to the Warriors.
A head coach's task is to design tactics for his players that suit his characteristics.
Yi Jianlian is not a stand-up player. It is the coach's fault to let him do unfamiliar things.
During the offseason, Deng Fang repeatedly told Yi Jianlian not to be afraid of injuries and to strengthen strength training.
You don't need to guard the opponent's inside players alone, but it is still necessary to top up.
And blocking shots and assisting in defense also require a strong body!
In the NBA, any defender who rushes in is not good. If you don't have a strong body, it will be difficult to intimidate your opponents.
As for defensive experience, Deng Fang asked Ron Adams to train Yi Jianlian for more than a month!
When to help defend, when to make up for defense, and when to block shots, Adams is an expert in this field, much better than Deng Fang!
They are professionals!
Yi Jianlian's problem is that he lacks self-confidence, is easily injured, and is relatively weak in strength.
But Yi Jianlian’s diligence and hard work are no problem.
As long as he has confidence, no longer suffers from injuries, and strengthens strength training, Yi Jianlian's development should be good.
Yi Jianlian performed quite well in the training camp.
Yi Jianlian also played well in the preseason.
Deng Fang's only worry is that Yi Jianlian won't be able to adapt to the regular season.
Deng Fang was very pleased with the result.
In the Warriors system, Yi Jianlian plays like a fish in water!
Pick-and-roll with Curry and throw three-pointers, then walk to the penalty area after the pick-and-roll to receive Curry's pass and dunk. Yi Jianlian did it much better than Jordan!
Jordan can also make alley-oops, but he can't go out and throw three-pointers!
The more opponents you choose, the harder it will be to defend!
On the defensive end, Yi Jianlian also performed well.
Yi Jianlian's advantages are jumping and speed. His low-post single defense is not as good as Lopez, but his defense from the outside is much better than Lopez!
Kobe and Gasol were in a pick-and-roll, and Yi Jianlian stepped forward to block it. When Laga Bell came back, he quickly returned to defense.
If it were Lopez, because his speed was too slow, he would probably be passed by Kobe.
Yi Jianlian is much better!
Moreover, Yi Jianlian returned to defense faster than Lopez.
Even when defending Gasol alone in the low post, Yi Jianlian did not suffer too much.
Deng Fang has seen the confrontation between Yi Jianlian and Gasol in the international arena. Yi Jianlian is weaker than Gasol, but his single defense is not much worse!
You must know that it is a confrontation between national teams!
The weakness of the Chinese team's back line is well known to everyone.
In international competitions, when Yi Jianlian defends Gasol alone, no one can give him much help.
But it's different with the Warriors!
The Warriors have the best forward group in the league!
Azubuike, Prince and Tucker are all defensive heroes!
Fast, powerful, with great height and wingspan, and rich defensive experience!
Yi Jianlian only needs to hit Gasol twice in the low post and prevent him from getting in position directly in the paint!
Yi Jianlian can still do this!
The most outstanding thing about Yi Jianlian's performance is his shot blocking!
With his excellent jumping and speed, Yi Jianlian gave the Lakers three big blocks in the penalty area!
One of them was given to Kobe!
Lopez's shot blocking was also very good, but he could only stand there and wait.
Yi Jianlian is different, his help in blocking shots is very good!
Although he also paid the price of two fouls, Yi Jianlian's big block still made the fans at Oracle Arena happy!
