NBA: One S-level skill per game

After just 3 minutes, the Warriors not only tied the score, but also took the lead.

Clippers coach Nigro saw that something was not going well and immediately replaced the main players.

So in the next game, the Clippers' attack became even sharper, and they launched a powerful counterattack with all their strength.

The team's quick progress and deft passing demonstrated their skill level.

Their sharp breakthroughs and efficient shooting allowed them to catch up, posing a great challenge to the Warriors' bench.

But the Warriors' substitute players have intra-team competitions every day, and their opponent is Li Chen, the NBA No. 1 in history and a famous B player in the NBA.

Playing against such top players every day, they are much more resistant to pressure on the court.

So they could face the pressure calmly, and they cleverly used overall coordination and tight defensive strategies to successfully maintain their lead.

The head coach of the Clippers was dumbfounded. He had some doubts. Is this really a substitute player for the Warriors?
Why compete with the main players of their Clippers team?
The strength of the Warriors' bench made San Francisco fans cheer.

When the fans are happy, of course they are willing to spend money to buy tickets.

At the end of the second quarter, thanks to the outstanding performance of the Warriors' bench players, the Golden State Warriors still led the Clippers by four points, 60-56.

The third quarter started after a 15-minute break. Now the main lineup has rested for more than 30 minutes. They are full of energy. Garnett scored 6 points in a row with sudden outside and inside shots, plus Korver's three-pointer. , the Golden State Warriors beat the Clippers to a 9-2 spurt.

The Warriors' sharp offense in the third quarter directly shut down the Clippers.

The team's head coach made a defensive tactic, although it was said to inhibit the Warriors' offense.However, in the second half of the game, they were obviously unable to match the physical Warriors' starting lineup.

When the third quarter ended, the Clippers trailed the Golden State Warriors by 72 points, 85-13, and there was a faint tendency for the Clippers to collapse.

Entering the final quarter of the game, the Warriors once again put on the bench. This time David Lee did not play, and Garnett came on.

Although the Clippers refused to give up easily, they tried their best and showed extraordinary fighting spirit on the court.

But the Warriors held their ground and held on to their lead.

The Clippers struggled to catch up and tried to counterattack and win.

But as long as the score between the two teams is brought closer, a Warriors player will step up and shoot a three-pointer. The entire game is filled with the despair of the Clippers players.

It is worth mentioning that in the matchup between Harden and Paul, every time Paul made a small move against Harden, Harden would always fall down in an exaggerated way.

Harden kept falling to the ground, which made the referee speechless, so the referee awarded Harden a diving foul, but then Harden still refused to repent and fell to the ground his own way.

The referee of the game was still very good-tempered from time to time. He thought about it and watched the slow-motion replay. However, he found that Paul had fouled Harden, but Harden's performance was too exaggerated.

In order for the game to proceed smoothly, the referee warned Paul and Harden.

Paul was also drunk. This was his first time seeing such a scoundrel!After the referee's warning, Paul could only give up his little move.

But without the magic weapon of small moves, his defensive ability plummeted. You must know that Harden is now a being carefully cultivated by Li Chen. With such physical strength, Paul cannot stop him at all.

On the other side, when Li Chenharden's hand touched the porcelain, the corner of his mouth twitched.

At the same time, this scene stunned Curry, a primary school student, and then his eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a new world.

But at this moment, a big hand pressed on the top of his head. The owner of the hand was none other than Li Chen.

Curry looked at Li Chen doubtfully, and saw Li Chen smile with a warm and sunny smile and said: "Stephen, if you follow Harden's example, I will let you know how beautiful the world is."

Seeing Li Chen's gentle smile, Curry felt his hair stand on end, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to Tianling Gai.

Out of human survival instinct, the primary school student shook his head like a drum and promised: "Boss, I will not learn James' dirty tricks."

Li Chen is very satisfied with Curry's guarantee.

In the final moments of the game, the Warriors relied on their stable performance and self-confidence to win the final victory 110-100.

They showed top teamwork throughout the game, giving Warriors fans hope.

The Clippers also put in a lot of effort and resilience, but in the face of the huge strength gap, their efforts had no effect.

At the same time, Garnett also saw the potential of the Warriors, which gave him a bad feeling in his heart. He thought, wouldn't his 5% stake be wasted?

However, when I think about it, if he can really win the championship, he will not be at a loss.

The Golden State Warriors performed well in the following regular season. They ushered in ten consecutive victories, but Curry's injury again slowed down this strong momentum.

On this day, Li Chen watched Curry practicing shooting continuously in a wheelchair. He smiled and said: "Boy, you are diligent enough." After saying this, Li Chen paused slightly, and then joked: "A woman once a month, you boy It’s better to get hurt once a year.”

Curry "..."

Curry said speechlessly: "Boss, can you please stop rubbing salt into my young mind?"

"Hahaha! I won't joke with you, but you really need to pay attention to your injured physique. You need to know that there are countless talented players in the NBA, but they have all been knocked down by injuries."

Li Chen's words made Curry fall into deep thought.

Although Li Chen knew that there was no serious injury in Curry in the future, that was only in the past, and he couldn't guarantee it in this world now.

At this time, Curry said hesitantly: "How about you train me, boss?"

Li Chen patted Curry on the shoulder with appreciation and said: "Stephen, this is a wise choice. I will train you like James. You can go to nightclubs at night and still play games during the day."

Curry "..."

Although the Warriors are full of talent, they are a young team after all, so the Warriors, like other young teams, have the disadvantages of instability.

When the playoffs ended, the Warriors barely made the playoffs.

Although he barely made it to the playoffs, Garnett was still a little surprised.

The Warriors are ranked eighth in the Western Conference with 45 wins and 37 losses.

56. Chicago Bulls (2 wins, [-] losses)

52. Miami Heat (3 wins, [-] losses)

50. Indiana Pacers (32 wins, [-] losses)

8. Golden State Warriors (45-37)
Two days later, the Golden State Warriors' first playoff game began.

Before the game, in the Warriors lounge, Li Chen looked at the players present and said seriously: "Although I know how strong the Spurs are."

Curry, Harden, and others listened silently.

Garnett was a little speechless. After getting close to Li Chen, he realized that this guy's character was really that weird.

When playing, the Spurs couldn't hold their heads up, what?Do you still want to overthrow the Spurs when you are the owner?
Just when Garnett was complaining in his heart, Li Chen said again: "I have never lost to the Spurs, and I don't want my team to lose to the Spurs." "Boss, don't worry, we will defeat the Spurs. "The beardless Harden promised, patting his chest.

Immediately afterwards, Curry and others were all talking about it, saying that the Spurs have nothing to fear and so on.

Li Chen felt some comfort in his heart after hearing these guarantees from the future superstars.

But he didn't have high expectations. After all, the Spurs have rich experience and are a traditional strong team, while the Warriors have a poor foundation.

After a while, players from both sides began to enter the stadium. Li Chen's retirement gave Spurs fans renewed hope of winning the championship. Therefore, in the past two seasons, the Spurs' regular season attendance increased a lot.

The attendance rate can even reach 100% in the playoffs.

In the TNT live broadcast room.

"Haha! Kenny, to be honest, I really didn't expect Chen to retire at his peak."

"Yeah! I didn't expect it. I thought he was joking at first!" Kenny Smith said with emotion.

"It's actually good for him to retire. This kid makes the playoffs boring in the NBA."

Kenny Smith gave Barkley a thumbs up, and there was nothing wrong with that.

"Next let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams."

The Spurs' starting lineup is:
Parker (point guard)
Ginobili (shooting guard)
D Green (small forward)

Diaw (power forward)

Duncan (center)
The Spurs didn't draft Leonard and had to move Ginobili from the bench to the starting lineup.

The Golden State Warriors’ starting lineup is:

Curry (point guard)
Korver (shooting guard)

Leonard (small forward)
Garnett (power forward)
David Lee (center)

After the first quarter of the game started, Curry tried his hand without saying anything, and boom!The basketball hit the basket and came out.

However, the Warriors are very solid inside with Garnett and David Lee inside.

Garnett grabbed the rebound and then scored the ball against Duncan's defense.

The Warriors took the lead, leading 2-0.

Then the French sports car Parker broke through for a layup to tie the score.

In the next round, Curry held the ball forward and prepared to launch an attack.

But Parker kept his eyes on Curry.

He keenly caught Curry's offensive intentions and responded quickly.

Parker precisely coordinated his footwork and arm movements to press Curry and try to limit his offensive space.

He defended closely, putting tremendous pressure on Curry and leaving him no chance to breathe.

Parker remains alert and adopts a proactive defensive strategy, trying to anticipate Curry's next move.

Curry turned his body flexibly, showing his innate basketball talent and solid basic skills.

He held the ball firmly in his hands and struggled with Parker through delicate control and precise power deployment.

At this time, David Lee came out from the inside to provide Curry with a pick-and-roll screen.

Curry took advantage of David Lee's pick-and-roll and raised his hand to shoot.

I saw the basketball drawing a beautiful arc and flying towards the blue box.

At this moment, the ball seemed to have formed an invisible tacit understanding with the basket, passing through the net without any hindrance and hitting the basket.

Swish!The basketball is hollow into the net.

The Warriors went ahead 5-2.

In the TNT live broadcast room.

"Oh! God, this freewheeling energy reminds me of Li Chen."

"Kenny, I'm sure this kid must have been taught by Li Chen. He is so unscrupulous." Buckley said firmly.

Kenny Smith smiled.

The Spurs attack.

Parker controlled the rhythm of the offense. He dribbled forward steadily and found space to break through.

And just when Parker faked a move to pass Curry.

Curry used his excellent reactions and quick movement to stick closely to Parker, giving him no chance to break through.

With his extraordinary defensive skills and keen observation, he paid close attention to Parker's every move.

After all, Parker is an old player, and his experience is not something that second-year Curry can easily guard against.

At this moment, Korver chose to double-team Parker.

The double-teaming of Curry and Korver caused great trouble for Parker. For a while, Parker fell into a passive position.

Curry moved his steps flexibly and maintained his body balance at all times, preventing Parker from breaking through.

And Korver was like a cheetah, anticipating Parker's movements and preparing to steal.

Parker knew that he had to handle the ball in his hands promptly. Just when Parker was thinking about who to pass the ball to, Ginobili shouted, "Tony, here."

After receiving the ball, Ginobili used his excellent agility to break through with his signature snake shape and drive towards the basket for a layup.

However, Leonard, a first-year rookie, is not afraid of tigers. He stretched out his arm without hesitation and blocked Ginobili's breakthrough route.

Ginobili doesn't care much about Leonard as a rookie.

I saw Ginobili just about to change direction and pass Leonard, but the next moment he was intercepted by Leonard.

Immediately after the steal, Leonard easily scored two points.

Ginobili was a little careless on this shot.

In the Spurs dugout, Popovich was a little worried. You must know that this is the player he likes!Now he has become a player who is the Spurs' old enemy. He is really depressed.

In this way, the two teams went back and forth in the first quarter, and the scores increased alternately.

When the first quarter of the game was about to end, the Golden State Warriors, who had barely entered the playoffs, were evenly matched with the Spurs, the number one team in the Western Conference.

After a while, the first quarter ended with the Warriors failing to score on their last possession.

In the TNT live broadcast room.

"Hahaha! It would be interesting if the Spurs were hacked."

Barkley's words made Kenny Smith a little funny, "Charles, if I say, it is possible to change to another team, but not the Spurs."

"Okay! Okay, Kenny, I admit that what you said is very reasonable, but I still hope they can succeed."

"Me too."

"Hahaha!" The two laughed together. (End of chapter)
