The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 368 System player?

G2 of the Western Conference Finals disappointed many sports media who wanted to have fun.

The Warriors had a record of 67 wins in the regular season. Although the whole team didn't have much experience in the playoffs, they trailed by 22 points at halftime, which is a bit too much.

During the regular season, the Warriors' offensive firepower was second only to the Clippers.

The team averaged 87.0 shots per game and 110.0 points per game. This data almost crushed all teams in the league.

He averaged 27 shots from outside the three-point line per game, and the team's three-point shooting percentage reached 39.8%. This data is even more terrifying, and the outside performance ranks first in the league.

Being able to win 67 games, the critics naturally have great expectations. The G1 game was stretched. Everyone thought that the Warriors had not adapted to the intensity of the game, but G2 was even more stretched. Some sports reporters began to ridicule:

"Steph Curry is overrated, he just fits better in Steve Kerr's system."

Many reporters hold this point of view. During the halftime of G2, everyone tweeted and mocked.

The halftime theory is already their respect for the second person on the MVP candidate list.

Of course, Curry's performance was indeed a bit stretched, 10 of 2 in the half, 7 of 1 from beyond the three-point line, 4 of 3 free throws, and scored 8 points.
In the locker room of the visiting team, Steve Kerr also had a big head. In this game, the Warriors tried to slow down and concentrate the ball on Curry and Clay, but unfortunately, the core players stretched their hips up.

Clay sat in his seat and didn't speak. The more he encountered this kind of game, the simpler his thoughts became. This is a habit developed from playing since childhood.

In high school, Clay and Li Ze were in the first class. When the two were partners, he did not make any concessions or changes, forcing Li Ze to play the No. 1 position, and he also sacrificed in statistics.

In college, although somewhat restrained, he still played the role of a scorer on the whole.

When he entered the team in his rookie season, Monta Ellis was still the leader of the team at that time, and he didn't have many shots off the bench, so Clay tried his best to throw.

Having conflicts with the team boss during the Warriors' rookie period is enough to show that Clay will never change his style of play for anyone.

Hearing that Steve Kerr was still emphasizing moving the ball and making good screens, Clay finally couldn't help but said:

"We need to shoot. Just throw the ball into the basket. The process is not important. Getting points is the current goal."

半场13中7,其中三分球5中2,砍下勇士队全队最高的16分。

Clay used his performance to prove that he is the current thigh of the Warriors.

Steve Kerr takes one look at Clay, and finally just taps on the whiteboard again:
"That's right, scoring is the most important thing. We've fallen behind so much. In the second half, we need to let go and score!"

Stephen Curry didn't speak, and he is still a little dazed.

In the first half, Green was 3 for 0 and scored 2 points. He immediately clapped his hands and shouted:

"Go shoot it, Bro! I'll grab the rebound and we've got a chance to turn the game around!"

Grimond Green took the initiative to speak out in the locker room, constantly encouraging his teammates, and Iguodala also sent out chicken soup, coupled with the psychological massage from the coaching staff, the Warriors finally came to their senses.

After the start of the third quarter, Clay was on the right flank outside the three-point line, facing Li Ze's block, and forcibly hit the iron. In the Staples Arena, the Clippers fans cheered.

The long rebound just fell into Jokic's arms near the free throw line. Seeing this situation, Green could only curse secretly and retreat quickly.

The rebounds of the jump shot team are often long rebounds. When the Clippers are paying attention, it is not easy to rush to grab offensive rebounds.

Three minutes into the third quarter, the Warriors stopped at 3 points.

Except for Clay's mid-range throw and 2 points in the opening game, everyone else is still hitting the iron.

"This is not a good offensive choice. The Warriors can try to give the ball to Bogut inside and play a low post."

In the TNT commentary booth, Chris Webber couldn't help giving pointers when he saw that Clay took the ball and threw it, or Curry forcibly shot it in a few rounds.

"Pitchers must have such confidence, but the point difference is getting bigger and bigger. Steve doesn't seem to be able to solve the problem of the Warriors' offense."

Reggie Miller thinks that Clay's shot is no problem, he understands the shooter's offensive choice.

After Paul dribbled the ball across half court, he was immediately at the top of the arc, and with the help of Jordan's pick-and-roll, he accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand.

Curry chased behind him, and Bogut was delayed in front. After Paul broke into the inside and circled around, Curry quickly followed.

Li Ze, who was in the left corner, noticed that Jokic had moved to the free throw line, and immediately sped up and popped out diagonally.

Clay was delayed by Jokic at the free throw line, and Green switched out immediately.

On the right flank, Li Ze bounced the ball out and then swayed the ball. Green, who switched defenses, did not dare to be careless. He quickly adjusted the defensive center of gravity and stuck to the defense.

As soon as the opponent's defense moved, Li Ze immediately released the ball with his right hand, and at the same time stepped diagonally with his left foot, pretending to break through with a cross step.

Green subconsciously chose to slide backwards, while Li Zeyun took a step and suddenly dribbled the ball vigorously to the side, took a large lateral step, combined the ball quickly, and quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!

At 45:74, the point difference was about to reach 30 points, the Staples Arena was completely violent, and the Clippers fans were shouting happily.

In the first few rounds, the Clippers' shooting percentage also declined, and the Warriors' double-teaming still played a role, but Li Ze scored without paying attention, which completely broke the Warriors' defense.

After Curry hit two irons, he reduced his shots. In this attack, he handed the ball to Bogut at the free throw line. After Curry cut in, he quickly ran to the right corner.

Clay went around in a big circle from right to left, and found that Li Ze beside him was relentlessly chasing him. Instead of choosing to catch the ball hand-to-hand, he cut again around Bogut.

Jordan kept interfering with his hands up high, forcing Bogut to send a ground pass. The offensive routine was easily predicted by Li Ze. As soon as the ball came into Clay's hands, Li Ze cut it off before he could raise the ball and release it.

"what!!"

Clay yelled, but the referee ignored it, noticing that the Warriors retreated quickly, and Li Ze didn't choose to speed up the game, and casually threw the ball to Paul.

Steve Kerr saw that the Clippers were preparing to attack again, and walked up and down the sideline helplessly.

Harrison Barnes saw that the veteran Barnes who was facing him moved quickly from the right corner, and knew that the Clippers must want to play low tactics again.

Loudly reminded his teammates, and then chased Barnes and ran to the left corner.

Outside the three-point line, Paul held the ball in his right hand and quickly moved to the right flank. At the moment when Li Ze successfully blocked the block on the right side, he immediately sent a ground pass.

The Warriors' defense all flocked to Li Ze. Green let go of Jokic on the free throw line and cooperated with Clay to block the line. Bogut, who was defending Jordan at the bottom left of the basket, also moved quickly and raised his hands. , blocking the bottom line.

The double-team of the three is about to form. After receiving the ball, Li Ze puts the ball with his right hand, and before the defense is in place, he quickly lobs it to Jokic who is down.

In the first half, Fatty Bai scored consecutive points with his shots in the paint. Bogut didn't dare to be careless, and immediately wanted to step forward to help defend.

Before he could move his feet, Jokic, who received the pass, threw the ball casually, and Jordan, who was at the bottom left of the basket, easily jumped up to eat the cake, caught the ball in the air, and dunked the basket vigorously with both hands!

"Boom!" The empty pick and eat the pie!
Two simple passes broke the Warriors' defense. In the two games, the Clippers easily seized the opportunity if they played more or less.

Seeing that the point difference finally exceeded 30 points, Steve Kerr finally returned to the bench, watching the situation on the field and no longer talking.

Stephen Curry still didn't give up the game, but due to the poor touch on the outside, the Clippers' defense moved back.

Curry, who no longer pursued three-pointers, stepped up his breakthrough. He used Bogut's pick-and-roll at the top of the arc to get rid of Paul and go straight to the basket.

Breaking through into the paint and approaching the basket, Curry completed a throw and was directly blocked by Jordan with the ball.

"squeak!"

The referee blew the whistle, and the Clippers fans cheered loudly. Curry stood up, didn't complain to the referee about Jordan's too much movement, and walked silently to the free throw line.

The Warriors lacked aggression inside. Only Green's breakthrough occasionally caused Jokic's foul. Bogut did not attack in the low post. Only then did Jordan get the third foul of the game, and the timing was just right.

"The Clippers won't play this kind of defense in the regular season. This is the third time Curry has fallen."

Reggie Miller looked at Curry who was walking towards the free throw line, and said something with emotion. Chris Webber saw the point difference on the field and added helplessly:

"That's the difference between Stephen Curry and Kayce. I mean the physical difference. One-on-one defense. Kayce can drive to the basket without using a screen."

"The Warriors' big men are always on the line. It's hard to rebound. Andrew Jordan can stay at the basket, but Bogut frequently mentions the high post. Instead of this, it's better to make the lineup smaller."

The commentator Mav Albert also found this situation and added:
"If you rely entirely on outside shooting, Steve can let Iguodala come to the starting lineup, and the mobility of the lineup will be enhanced."

"The Thunder set up Ibaka to play the 5th position a few years ago, and the Warriors are shorter. Perhaps, after returning to the home court, the coaching staff will make a thorough adjustment."

The Warriors, who fell into a scoring drought, completely collapsed in the second half of the third quarter.

Clay continued to shoot, and Iguodala's mistakes after he came on the court further accelerated the speed of the collapse.

Li Ze easily got a few chances to switch offenses. Relying on fast-break free throws to score consecutive points, the Clippers fans have already begun to celebrate the victory of the game.

At the end of the third quarter, everyone in the Warriors who returned to the bench was silent.

At 16:28 in a single quarter, after the Clippers slowed down, the Warriors collapsed by themselves
59:93, the game completely lost its suspense.

"After more than a day of rest, fly directly to Oakland, maybe the Warriors can't adjust!"

After winning the game easily, Paul was in a good mood. He watched the atmosphere group play hard on the court, and thought about the future in a low voice.

Li Ze, who had changed into his training uniform, did not relax his vigilance. After returning to the home court, the whistle of the Warriors will be much better, and the quality of offense will definitely improve. There is a high probability that Steve Kerr will break the boat and replace with a small lineup.

This is also a test for the Clippers. Thinking of the possible situation, Li Ze simply said:

"The opponent has the strength to rely on offense to win. The Warriors' home record has always been very good!"

Jokic didn't care about the low-pitched communication between the two, and the fat white man focused on the technical statistics in his hand:
8中5,12分7篮板4助攻1失误,看到又差三个篮板球达成两双,约基奇心中有些遗憾。

The sports reporters at the scene no longer paid attention to the situation on the field. Looking at Curry's data, they launched Twitter again:
"If there is Stephen Curry in the best team tomorrow, it can only show that the journalists who voted need to improve their business level."

"Steph Curry is overrated, maybe he's a regular season player like James Harden."

"Second on the MVP candidate list? Maybe LeBron James is the real second!"

As the buzz about Stephen Curry's performance continues to rise on Twitter, it's even more interesting that LeBron James' evaluation has started to reverse.

"Even if LeBron James faced the complete Clippers, he didn't lose so badly. We all underestimated James' performance!"

Before the game was over, Curry's fans started a fight with James' fans, until Li Ze's fans also started to speak out:
"What's the point of arguing, they are the second person anyway, and Kayce is the strongest!"

This tweet sent by the fan was reposted by Durant. With the expression of laughing, it immediately made many fans completely break the defense, and then Durant was sprayed:

"You can't win a championship without Kayce!"

Durant, who was bored at his home in Oklahoma City, immediately came to his spirits, and went off in person to spray:
"Who limited LeBron James to only 8 points in the finals? Have you all forgotten!?"

For a while, the battle on social media was more exciting than the live game
The Warriors' atmosphere group kept scoring points, and the Clippers' defense also relaxed.

In the end, at 91:119, the Clippers beat the Warriors again at home and successfully protected the home court, leading the series by 2:0.

The joyful atmosphere in the Staples Arena made everyone in the Warriors extremely disappointed, and there was not much time left for them to adjust. G3 was a battle of life and death.

The commentator Marv Albert looked at the technical statistics in his hand and briefly summed up the game:

“克莱-汤普森20中9,三分线外8中3,拿到21分,斯蒂芬-库里16中4,其中三分球9中1,拿到13分。”

"The Warriors are 32 of 7 from beyond the three-point line. It's hard to win with such a performance!"

Reggie Miller also felt that the Warriors shot too much from outside, but he did not comment on the performance of the Warriors, and became Li Zechuan again:
“出场32分钟,Kayce今晚20中15,三分线外5中4,罚球7中7,41分6篮板3助攻2抢断2盖帽1失误。”

"Steve's double-teaming in the next game should be more determined. There is no need to test the touch. They have to double-team after the start."

Chris Webber also agrees with this point of view very much, and simply added:
"The Warriors lack elite defenders on the perimeter, and double-teaming is the most correct choice. Let the rest of the Clippers complete the offense, and the Warriors have hope of winning."

Reggie Miller felt that Steve Kerr would definitely change his lineup, so he couldn't help but ask again:

"Do you think Iguodala will be in the starting lineup?"

"Maybe! Bogut didn't play much in the first two games. I think Steve will make a change."

"."

On May 5, the NBA announced the best lineup for the 22-14 season. The fans immediately recovered from last night's game and started a new round of fighting.

The top 5 players in the first team are:

Stephen Curry, Li Ze, LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Marc Gasol;
The 5 players of the best second team are:

Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Blake Griffin, Pau Gasol.

The five players in the best three teams are:
Kyrie Irving, Klay Thompson, LaMarcus Aldridge, DeMarcus Cousins, DeAndre Jordan.

After the announcement of the best team of this season, it is Jordan who has benefited the most.

With the best defensive team, the best team three teams, and the blessing of honor, Jordan's agent has more confidence, 4 million US dollars in 8000 years, and the champion center has to get such a contract!
Griffin is still recuperating at home. After seeing the announcement of the best team, he is still a little disappointed. This season is too depressing for him.

Sam Goldfeld naturally knows the mind of the big employer in front of him. On the CAA side, it is not an easy task to sign Griffin. He has to always think about the employer.

"Blake, from a purely basketball perspective, leaving the Clippers is not a good choice."

"This is Los Angeles. You have a chance to win three consecutive championships this year. Steve Ballmer doesn't care about the luxury tax. The core lineup is still young. You even have a chance to win another three consecutive championships!"

Griffin nodded without making a sound. Manager Sam changed his words at this time:
"However, from a personal point of view, you may gain more by leaving the Clippers. Awards such as MVP and FMVP will open the door to you."

"Kayce is too strong. With him, you will never surpass him in statistics. I don't mean to underestimate you, Blake, but you should know that what I said is true."

Griffin nodded depressingly again. Of course he knew this situation. Even an efficient scorer like Durant was overwhelmed by Li Ze. He won the MVP only after leaving Li Ze.

In terms of scoring ability, he knew he was not as good as Durant, and seemed to think of something, Griffin suddenly said:
"Even if I leave the Clippers, I will go to a team that can compete for the championship. I have already won the championship. In the next stage, I need more honors!"

Broker Sam nodded with a smile when he heard the big employer's request, and said without hesitation:
"As one of the best big men in the league, no one can say no to us. Of course, I don't recommend you go to New York. It sucks there now!"

"In the Western Conference, the Warriors have already risen, plus the Thunder, Grizzlies, Spurs, Rockets, and Clippers, it will take a lot of effort just to compete for the playoffs."

"The competitive environment in the Eastern Conference is more relaxed, and the pressure will be much less. Don't worry! Leave the work in this area to me. You just need to maintain your health. The MVP is already waving to us!"

As if thinking of a wonderful future, the superficial brother who was sitting on the sofa gave a tactical back:

"MVP? Sounds really good!"

On the night of the 20th, the away game Cavaliers taught the Eagles another lesson.

94:82, relying on LeBron James' outstanding performance, the Cavaliers won easily, and the series came to 2:0.

30分9篮板11助攻1盖帽4失误,出场39分钟的詹姆斯打出了准三双数据,老鹰队没人能限制住他的突破。

The Cavaliers' shooters showed their power as a group, 30 of 12, and 4% of their shots from beyond the three-point line, blasting their opponents.

LeBron James' performance in the playoffs is getting better and better, and the reputation on social media is also improving. At the same time, some fans still don't forget to step on Stephen Curry:

"This is the difference between a superstar and a system player. This season LeBron James is underestimated. He should be ranked No. 2 in the MVP candidate list!"

The playoffs will keep fans tearing up, which is why many players turn off social media. After all, there are really a lot of brainless trolls.

The Warriors who returned to Oakland were not in high spirits. They lost too much in these two games.

Only one night later, Stephen Curry found himself labeled as a system player. Fans ridiculed him on social media, and TNT and ESPN also began to look down on him.

At present, there are no other voices except doubts
In the recovery training session in the afternoon, Steve Kerr sent Curry chicken soup for the soul again:
"Don't be the voice of the unexpected world. You are the core of the Warriors. Tomorrow night's game, we must become more determined, believe in ourselves, and believe in the teammates around us."

"The playoffs start with an away game win, and we will protect our home court."

Steve Kerr patted Curry on the shoulder. He didn't want the players to be affected by the pressure, but he couldn't control the comments on social media, so he could only start from Curry.

Curry looked serious and didn't say much. Since college, he has been questioned. Tomorrow night's game, he will prove himself:
"I'll do my job!"

"."

G3 of the Western Conference Finals left the two teams with just over a day to adjust. On the night of the 23rd, the Oracle Arena was packed.

The Warriors have a gorgeous style of play this season and have a record of 67 wins. Naturally, they are deeply loved by local fans.

The number of people present tonight is close to 2. Although the ticket price has increased slightly, the fans are still willing to swipe their cards. The home team needs their support!

Steve Ballmer still chooses to sit in the front row. The old man and his friends feel that he is out of place. The Oracle Arena has become a sea of ​​gold.

Warriors fans are all wearing yellow cheering T-shirts, cheering for the home team heartily:

"Warriors—! Warriors—! Warriors—!"

The fans shouted happily, and the Warriors' offensive state finally picked up.

Stephen Curry dribbled through half court and immediately set up a pick-and-roll with Green at the top of the arc. Jordan noticed that Paul failed to squeeze through the screen again and was forced to step forward to help defend.

Curry, who is holding the ball in his left hand, circled the ball behind his back, pretending to break through, and then quickly dribbled back with a cross-step.

Just after dribbling over the three-point line, Curry suddenly dribbled the ball under his crotch, completely got rid of the defense, and quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!

The atmosphere in the Oracle Arena exploded instantly, the Warriors fans got up and cheered, and the DJ on the scene also shouted:

"Stephen—Curry!"

With the last 1 seconds left in the first quarter, with Curry throwing a three-pointer, the score on the field became 14:26.

Steve Kerr also worked hard. In the first quarter of the game, except for Barbosa replacing Clay, who had a good touch, and was delayed for 2 minutes, the other four starters all played the first quarter.

Taking the sideline kick, Paul quickly dribbled across the half court, Curry fought hard to defend, and Iguodala always stuck to Li Ze's side.

Concealed pulling to ensure his own defensive effect. Seeing Li Ze suddenly accelerate laterally, Iguodala also exerted enough strength to continue to defend.

After receiving a pass from Paul at the logo position, Curry also followed up on the defense. Li Ze held the ball in his right hand, pulled the defense, and quickly threw the ball into the hands of Jordan at the top of the arc.

Paul took advantage of the opportunity to complete the hand-off, noticing that Clay quickly rushed up again, and immediately gave the ball to Tucker in the left corner, unguarded, and quickly shot a jumper with an open three-pointer!
"state!"

The ball bounced high, and the fans cheered again. Although Jordan grabbed a rebound, the first quarter of the game officially ended.

Curry shook his fist excitedly at the fans before walking to the bench. They finally took the lead!

In the ESPN commentary seat, Mark Jackson looked at the starting lineup of the Warriors and felt uncomfortable. In contrast, he was indeed somewhat dogmatic.

"A very exciting game. The Warriors used their quick defensive rotation to limit the Clippers' offense. Stephen Curry must be praised for his performance. He played at an MVP level in the first quarter."

Jeff Van Gundy didn't expect the Warriors to put on a five-small lineup after the opening, and Bogut completely fell out of the rotation.

Commentator Mike Breen also praised Curry's performance:

"7 of 5, 5 of 3 from beyond the three-point line, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 17 points in a single quarter. Curry's performance is impeccable."

Mark Jackson had a lemon in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface, and added:
"DeAndre Jordan failed to punish Green on the inside, which allowed the Warriors to double-team unscrupulously. Of course, this is also related to the Clippers' outside inaccuracy."

"After all, this is the home court of the Warriors. Tonight they can let go of their hands and feet. G3 is a game that the Warriors cannot lose!"

On the Clippers' bench, Tucker was still annoyed by the missed three-pointer. No matter how fast the Warriors' defensive rotation is, there will always be open opportunities if they play more or less.

But it's a pity that the start feels mediocre, which is related to the excessive pressure on the defensive end. Everyone in the Clippers found that they couldn't squeeze the cover, and as a result, the opponent found a lot of misplacements.

"Just try your best on the defensive end. If you can't squeeze through the screen, then just switch defenses and don't care about the points lost."

"The opponent feels so good, and they are only 5 points ahead of us, so relax! We can afford to lose!"

Li Ze found that his teammates were a little out of balance. There is no need to be serious about moving the pick-and-roll, and both sides are benefiting.

Everyone nodded after hearing Li Ze's words. The first quarter of the game did lose its usual rhythm.

"Continue to shoot when there is an opening. There is still a long time in the game. Believe in yourself, OK?"

Coach De Nagro simply clapped his hands and reminded his players to keep shooting.

Jokic only played for more than three minutes after the opening, and was replaced. The white fat man couldn't keep up with the rhythm on the court, and he could only send points in the face of Curry, who felt explosive.

Although Jordan, who has better lateral speed, got a lot of playing time, his defensive performance was also average, and the away whistle was indeed much stricter.

The Warriors finally made a rotation, Livingston, Clay, Harrison Barnes, Barbosa, and David Lee appeared.

For the Clippers, Li Ze, who played the first quarter, continued to play, and Crawford, Tucker, Ingles, and Jokic played in rotation.

Taking advantage of the Warriors throwing a sideline kick, Li Ze simply told Fatty Bai:

"Raise the screen position and don't hesitate to shoot."

The Warriors' offense in the first round was still very simple. Clay quickly slid to the bottom line from left to right, and was in the right block position.

The rebound was protected by Jokic, and Harris Barnes immediately stepped forward to counterattack, delaying the Clippers' offense, and then retreated quickly.

After Li Ze took the ball, the Warriors basically returned to halftime.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The Warriors fans shouted loudly. After halftime, Li Ze took a look at the matchup on the field and immediately signaled Jokic to put up the pick-and-roll.

As soon as David Lee saw Jokic running directly beyond the three-point line, his scalp felt a little numb, and he hoped that Clay could squeeze through the screen.

Li Ze held the ball in his right hand, facing Clay's close defense, suddenly accelerated after protecting the ball with his back, took a big step forward, and then quickly dribbled the ball behind his back.

Quickly in and out with his left hand, Clay, who had just slid in front of Li Ze, was a little dazed for a moment.

Clay, who wanted to speed up his defense, bumped into Jokic at this time. David Lee saw Li Ze's center of gravity lowered and was completely numb.

Subconsciously, he chose to step forward to delay, but was directly passed by Li Ze's push ball. David Lee desperately slid to the left and rear, and the two entangled and rushed into the paint.

The Warriors fans exclaimed, and Li Ze, who was on the move, suddenly turned around quickly and wiped out David Lee's defense again.

When David Lee turned around to block the shot, he found that Li Ze had already soared into the air, grabbed the ball with one hand with his left hand, and smashed the ball directly into the basket!
"Boom! Squeak"

The whistle blew the ball, and Li Ze turned around and dunked, causing David Lee to make a defensive foul.

David Lee almost threw himself into the street. Seeing Li Ze's expressionless face, he was terrified. Once his teammates couldn't cover him, he would suffer completely.
"Shhh!!"

The fans of the Warriors booed wildly, and the fans in the front row even began to spit their mouths. The fans of the Warriors also contributed to the success of black 8. Oracle Arena, the highlight is a passion!
At 29:31, Li Zejia made a free throw and successfully scored 3 points. Seeing that the point difference was narrowed, Steve Kerr hesitated, and finally shouted loudly to remind his players to keep their defensive attention.

"Let's go Warriors! Let's go Warriors! Let's go Warriors!"

The DJ at the scene began to shout loudly, and the fans continued to shout. The Warriors' offense was very patient. Livingston held the ball, and after the pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, he got rid of Crawford's defense. in a circle.

On the left flank, David Lee's up-screen without the ball allowed Barbosa to get rid of Tucker's pursuit. After sending a pass from the top of the arc, Jokic's defense slowed down a step, and Barbosa caught the ball and went straight to the basket basket.

As soon as he rushed up in three strides, Barbosa immediately found that Ingles suddenly stood in front of him, threw the ball to Harrison Barnes in the bottom corner, and knocked Ingles down in front of him at the same time on the ground.

"squeak!"

The two stood up, Ingles continued to applaud, the referee whistled an offensive foul, and Steve Kerr complained loudly to the referee on the sidelines:
"This is obviously a beautiful pass! My player did not foul!"

"Referee sucks! Referee sucks! Referee sucks!"

The Warriors fans at the scene also began to scold the referee, but unfortunately they could not change the referee's penalty.

Li Ze dribbled the ball across half court, noticed that the Warriors wanted to double-team him, and immediately passed the ball to Crawford on the left wing.

Barbosa quickly adjusted his defensive focus and moved back to defend in front of Crawford.

It is also a high pick-and-roll, and Crawford's breakthrough also attracted the defense of the two. As a scoring point in the rotation, the Warriors will focus on it tonight.

Jokic did not choose to roll down immediately after the pick-and-roll, but took the opportunity to return to the top of the arc, received a return pass from Crawford, immediately put the ball with his right hand, and moved laterally to the right flank.

After Li Ze bluffed, he suddenly sped up and ran back. After receiving the hand-off pass, Clay directly squeezed through the cover of the fat man.

As soon as David Lee returned to the defense, he saw Li Ze carrying Clay, holding the ball in his left hand, and accelerating the breakthrough.

The Warriors fans saw David Lee quickly stepping forward to block. First they cheered, and then they screamed again. Li Ze actually accelerated again. Under the defense of the two, he broke through to the bottom left of the basket and drifted to the left. Throw the ball toward the hoop with one hand.

David Lee and Clay jumped up to block the shot at the same time, but the arc of the ball was too high, the two lost their center of gravity, and immediately hit Li Ze, and the three fell to the ground at the same time
"Boom..."

"squeak!"

Turning around and seeing the ball hit the basket high and then hearing the referee's whistle, Clay and David Lee stand up and look at each other, can this also go in?
Everyone on the Warriors' bench covered their faces subconsciously. Li Ze's breakthrough tonight was too fierce.
Everyone in the Clippers immediately gathered around Li Ze, pulled up his golden thigh, and hit another three-pointer. Shrimp and pig's heart!
"Shhh!!"

Warriors fans once again booed hugely, coupled with a lot of scolding referees, the atmosphere in Oracle Arena exploded.

With Li Ze's additional penalty hit again, Steve Kerr, who broke the defense, immediately requested a timeout, and he had to replace David Lee.

At 32:31, in less than 2 minutes, the Clippers overtook the score, and the commentator Mike Breen subconsciously raised the volume:

"Kayce once again showed us why he can be elected MVP! Unparalleled individual ability!"

“目前8中6,三分线外2中1,罚球6中6,19分2篮板1助攻1抢断,我非常期待第二节比赛Kayce的爆发!”

Jeff Van Gundy would not take into account Steve Kerr's emotions, and immediately fired up:

"In such an important game, there is no need to increase the rotation. The Warriors lose tonight, and the series will be completely over. At this time, it is time to take the main force and fight for the next game."

"Draymond Green must be on the court, he is the Warriors' defensive barrier!"

After the timeout, the Warriors kept Barbosa, let Iguodala breathe a sigh of relief, and Curry and Green appeared again.

For the Clippers, Paul also played early and replaced Crawford, who was struggling defensively.

The Warriors' pick-and-roll screens became more and more fierce. Green screened on the right side near the baseline and almost hugged Li Ze directly.

At 32:33, the Warriors took another lead by 1 point!
Paul noticed that the referee’s penalty scale seemed to have changed again, and the Clippers did the same. Jokic’s position near the baseline on the left side gave Li Ze’s backrunning cover, and he also moved a small step to block Clay. behind.

Green, who switched defenses, was very fast. Seeing Li Ze catching the ball in the left block position, he subconsciously slowed down. The next second Li Ze held the ball in his right hand and rushed forward, Green immediately accelerated to post the defense.

The two rushed into the paint at the same time. Li Ze, who was on the move, suddenly took a big stride to the front left, a large European step, and instantly staggered the defense. Green had no time to turn around and block the shot, and watched Li Ze succeed in picking the basket with his left hand!
The Warriors attacked quickly, Green picked and rolled at the top of the arc, and took away Paul. Curry pretended to break through Jokic with the ball in his left hand.

"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!

Before the Warriors had time to celebrate, the Clippers were about to serve the baseline. Taking advantage of the defensive focus on Li Ze, Paul suddenly accelerated after halftime, and the high pick-and-roll got rid of Curry's defense.

Facing Green, who came up from the defense, he quickly changed direction with his left hand while moving forward, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand. Leaning against Green in the paint, he leaned forward to pick the basket!
"Shua! Squeak!"

Amid the boos of the Warriors fans, Paul's extra penalty hit steadily.

At 37:36, the Clippers once again overtook the score!

Barbosa holds the ball at the top of the arc, and Curry uses the cover of Harrison Barnes and Green to bounce out to the right flank beyond the three-point line. After receiving the pass, he immediately throws it!
"Shua!" A three-pointer was scored again!

In the Oracle Arena, the Warriors fans shouted happily, but in the next round, Li Ze asked for the ball with his back on the left elbow, and then suddenly bounced out.

Get rid of Clay's defense for a short time, and throw the ball as soon as he catches it!
"Oh!"

Amidst the exclamation, the ball hit the net!

As the quality of the screens went up (moving the pick-and-roll), both teams saw a lot of catch-and-shoots.

Steve Kerr on the sidelines would cheer for Curry's goals at the beginning, but after Li Ze gave continuous responses, he could only stand on the sidelines and watch the game
Coach De Nagro couldn't sit still anymore, standing on the sidelines and loudly reminding his players to pay attention to defense.

The pace of the game is getting faster and faster, and after the iron strike, the conversion attack also increases.

Jokic, who returned to the bench, was already stunned, and the court completely became the rhythm of the Warriors. During his playing time, Curry seemed to have never missed a shot.

At this time, Jordan has returned to the court, Iguodala has also replaced Barbosa, and the two teams officially started the offensive battle.

ESPN's commentary was full of exclamations. After the halftime game, watching the score on the court became 62:62, the commentator Mike Breen let out a sigh of relief:

"Unbelievable, the Clippers withstood the Warriors' offense and evened the score"
