The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 342 How Strong Is It?
Durant faced Bledsoe's defense and made a mid-range hit. The score came to 11:12, and the Warriors narrowed the point difference to 1 point.

After the Kings played a wave of offensive highs at the beginning, the Warriors quickly recovered the point difference.

The reason why the Warriors can adjust so quickly is that they gave up their tactics and directly let Durant choose singles to solve the problem immediately.

At the beginning of the game, there was a problem with Durant's tactical integration with the Warriors, which made it impossible for the tactics to be completed.

In fact, the reason why the Warriors can't play tactics is mainly because the Kings' defense is too strong.

It has been two years since the rise of the Warriors. In the past two years, the Warriors met gods and killed gods, and Buddhas and Buddhas, but when they faced the Kings, they were very frustrated.

On the one hand, the tactics of the Kings are very similar to those of the Warriors. They are familiar with the Warriors’ tactical system and can effectively target them; Let the Warriors' passing and cutting be completely useless.

And when Durant joins the Warriors this year, he can use his singles to break the Kings' infinite defense.

Facing Durant, switching defenses will only be named by Durant, but no need, the Warriors will get a lot of opportunities from the outside.

Two cups of poison, which one to choose is wrong!
In this case, the Kings found that it was not easy to defend on the defensive end, so they made a fuss on the offensive end.

After Li Pu attracted the flanking attack, he threw it directly near the basket. Giannis rose from the ground, with the basket flat on his head, two big hands caught the basketball, and dunked in the air!

The Kings have too much advantage inside, and the combination of Li Pu + Giannis almost completely abused the inside of the Warriors.

Green and Zha Zha, the two were no opponents on both offensive and defensive ends, and even if they were a stepping stone, they were not opponents, and they were defeated in all aspects!

However, the Warriors naturally also have their trump card, that is, their super outside firepower.

Giannis just made an alley-oop, turned his head, and Curry hit a three-pointer from the outside line, and the point difference was immediately wiped out.

At 14:14, the two sides returned to the same starting line.

After that, the two sides scored another goal, and after the score was tied at 16, they entered the stage of rotation.

The Kings are up and down, Bro Gordon, Dinwiddie, Covington, Grant and Jokic.

The Warriors do not have the ability to rotate in such a large area as the Kings. After acquiring Durant, the Warriors' salary space was locked, and the Warriors' proud bench lineup dissipated.

Now the Warriors can only send: Iguodala, Sean Livingston, David West and McGee. Curry leads these four. Far from it.

Tonight is Brogdon's first time playing in the NBA. It was such a high-end game when he first came up. It is impossible to say that he is not nervous!

So after he dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he handed the ball to Dinwiddie.

After struggling and tempering in the first two seasons, Dinwiddie is now playing better and better.

He held the ball and waited for Jokic to pick and roll. After Jokic blocked the defender for him, he immediately passed the ball and broke through. Facing McGee's defense, he accelerated decisively and attracted the defense. After that, he distributed the ball to Covington in the bottom corner.

Covington made an open three-pointer from the bottom corner, and the basketball went into the net!

Today's Covington, the defense continues to improve, the corner three-pointer is also very reliable, and he has become an elite 3D player!

When it was the Warriors' turn to attack, Curry and West picked and rolled and returned the pass, and West caught the ball and made a mid-range jumper.

As a former All-Star player, now he came to the Warriors, led the veteran's basic salary, and became the most reliable player on the Warriors bench.

However, just as he made a move, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of him, it was Grant with long arms and legs!
Grant, who has been working as a drinking fountain administrator for the past two years, has actually become more accurate with three-pointers in this season's pre-match training camp.

Coupled with his excellent physical fitness and defensive ability, he got a chance in the Kings' rotation.

Therefore, Grant especially cherished this opportunity and played very hard on the court.

Although Grant didn't block West with the ball, it did interfere with West's shot. After all, West didn't expect that this guy's movement and bounce would be so good.

So the basketball smashed out of the basket and didn't go in!
Jokic received the rebound, but he didn't give the ball to anyone. Instead, he was a big center and advanced with the ball himself.

The Warriors did not return the ball immediately after losing the ball, but immediately chose to return to defense.

The Warriors have played against Jokic for two years before, and they know Jokic quite well, knowing that this guy's ability to handle the ball is not like a center at all.

If you really try to grab it, it is very likely that the opponent will seize the opportunity and pass the ball to your teammates for a fast break.

After coming to the frontcourt with the ball, Jokic used a false shot to make a real pass, and used a no-look pass to fool all the Warriors players on the field, and actually put the ball straight to the basket.

After receiving the ball, Grant dunked easily with both hands!

The king's bench is starting to take off!

Although the Warriors' Curry played the first quarter, when the first quarter ended, at 31:20, the Kings led the Warriors by 11 points!
When the Warriors put on a substitute, their offensive ability declined, and their defensive ability plummeted. They were rubbed against the ground by the Kings' substitute.

Such a situation was never imagined by the Warriors.

However, Cole did not make a temporary change. He changed the rotation in the second quarter, allowing Green and Thompson to bring substitutes on the court.

However, the team's situation was still not much better. When the two sides returned to the starting lineup in the second quarter, the Kings still led by about 10 points.

However, when I thought that the gap between the two sides' benches was too large and the starting lineup should be balanced, the Kings suddenly started to exert their strength.

They desperately bit the Warriors' outside line from the outside, and then relied on Li Pu and Giannis' internal pass and internal cooperation to score easily.

In this way, they once again beat the Warriors 10:0, 64:46 at halftime.

Who would have thought that a strong dialogue would turn into a one-sided slap, and it felt like the entire second half was going to be trash time!
After entering the second half, although Curry and Durant began to score consecutively, they once led the Warriors to score 31 points in a single quarter.

But unfortunately, they still have nothing to do with the Kings inside, and the Kings scored 33 points in a single quarter.

The difference has widened!

In this way, the entire fourth quarter was completely reduced to garbage time, and the two sides did not send any more starters to play.

In the end, the Kings beat the Warriors at home at 129:100.

This result was unexpected by everyone.

Everyone may have guessed that the Kings would win, but why didn't they expect the Kings to win so much?
As a result, people suddenly realized that they couldn't understand this Warriors team!

How strong is he?
