Chapter 10 Pulling out the stinger
Seeing Du Zhe go around to defend David West, Nelson, who was standing on the sidelines, nodded slightly. This was indeed a pretty smart choice.

Du Zhe's long arms blocked the front, even Paul, who is the league's number one point guard, dared not make a mistake easily.

However, after a few rounds of offense and defense, Paul couldn't stand it anymore.

Other role players on the Hornets are useless, among which Russell Butler and Devin Brown have become war criminals. So far, one has made 8 of 2 shots and the other has made 4 of 1 shots, squandering a lot of opportunities.

You can't attack by yourself every round, right?Even if you are covered in iron, how many nails can you drive?
In desperation, Paul set his sights on David West, the only reliable teammate.

Seeing this, David West understood this and opened up the space again, preparing to use a mid-range shot to open up the situation.

It's a pity that Du Zhe squeezed the shooting space to death with his jumping and long arms, which made his several shots attempts fail.

Returning to the low post, David West had to face the grueling forward defense again.

This finally made Paul lose his temper. Isn't it just to go around and defend? If others can't break it, how can Paul not break it?

What is the No. [-] point guard in the NBA?In a word, he can pass the ball that other point guards can't pass, and he can pass the ball that other point guards can pass even better. He is the first point guard to thread the needle and find every opportunity.

In the next offensive round, Paul made a ground pass at a tricky angle.

Du Zhe was waiting for this moment, the ball had just bounced off when he was stopped by a pair of big hands.

"Break it! Du Zhe! Okay! Play with him!" In the studio, Director Zhang was so embarrassed that he began to shout without emotion.

Du Zhe then made another long pass, handed it to his teammates for a fast break, and then he liked to give an assist.

A few rounds later, a reluctant Paul once again tried to find David West inside with a lob.

Unfortunately, Du Zhe intercepted the ball halfway with his jumping wingspan.

"Another steal! Du Zhe has been completely transformed on the defensive end in the past half year!" Director Yu in the studio exclaimed again.

Director Zhang also fully agreed with this: "Du Zhe jumped really high! If it weren't for Du Zhe, the opponent would have scored!"

In the next game, Du Zhe used the defense around the front to effectively cut off the connection between David West and Paul.

Paul tried his best and only passed one goal.

But even with this one goal, Du Zhe didn't intend to let David West score comfortably. He used a hard foul to hold the opponent down.

Momentum is also very important in the game. Du Zhe would rather pay a foul than let the opponent gain momentum.

In the end, David West gave up the idea of ​​continuing to fight Du Zhe inside.

It's a pity that Du Zhe didn't make it easier for him even if he was floating in the middle distance.

Throughout the third quarter, David West missed all three shots and only scored 2 points on free throws.

The Hornets also completely misfired in this quarter, and the team only scored 19 points.

And Paul's several pass errors gave the Warriors a chance to counterattack, allowing the Warriors to take the opportunity to reverse the score.

Although Du Zhe did not score again in this quarter, he still had a good performance with 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.

77:74, the Warriors temporarily lead by 3 points.

In the last quarter, the two teams also saw red on the bayonet.

The Hornets are currently ranked seventh in the Western Conference, and their playoff spot is not secure. At the end of the season, they must try their best to win every game to ensure their position.

Although the Warriors have no desires or desires, the atmosphere has already reached this point, and it can't be justified if they don't fight hard at their home court.

What's more, several members of the Warriors team were undrafted like Du Zhe, and all of them received only basic salary contracts.

They also urgently need to prove themselves so that they can fight for a bigger contract.

Paul only rested for a few minutes in the second quarter, but he still tirelessly attacked the Warriors' defense over and over again.

Fortunately, the war criminal combination of the Hornets is still on the court. The two used the iron from time to time to help the Warriors stabilize the precarious situation.

Different from the last match, Du Zhe played almost the entire game, and he was completely infected by the atmosphere of the stadium without knowing it.

In other words, even he was high.

When faced with an open three-pointer, Du Zhe raised his hand and shot without thinking.

"Bang!" The heavy sound of hammering even drowned out the shouts of the audience and woke up Du Zhe.

"Calm down, calm down, you have to count how many catties you have..." He silently reminded himself in his heart.

In the studio, seeing Du Zhe decisively shoot a three-pointer, Director Zhang was also full of praise: "Du Zhe made the shot! Whoops! Although he didn't score, but the tactics came out, this shot is very reasonable, and it should be played like this !”

Fortunately, in the next round, he got another chance to make amends. Randolph dialed the ball in Du Zhe's direction while grabbing an offensive rebound.

Du Zhe did not hesitate this time and directly relied on the explosive bounce to score.

On the defensive end, he didn't relax. Taking advantage of David West's minutes of rest, he stepped up his double-teaming of Paul.

This made Paul, who was already relying on his breath, even more miserable, forcing Hornets coach Scott to have David West, who had just sat down, prepare to warm up again.

In the end, after 48 minutes of fierce fighting, the Warriors had the last laugh with a score of 111:103.

Although Chris Paul is like a god, scoring 43 points and 9 assists, it is still inevitable to hate the ending of Oracle Stadium.

David West also scored 24 points, but 14 of them were scored in the first quarter. Facing Du Zhe's defense, he only scored 10 points.

It is worth mentioning that the Hornets’ war criminal duo, Russell Butler and Devin Brown, made 20 of 4 shots from the field and 2 of 1 free throws. They scored 10 points together. They can be said to be the Warriors. An important contributor to the team's victory.

It can only be said that the Hornets lost, but Paul did not lose.

The number one contributor to the Warriors' victory was Crawford, who scored 39 points.

杜哲则是5投3中砍下了6分8板2助2冒5断的全能数据,在攻防两端用自己这匹“下等马”兑掉了大卫西这匹“上等马”。

In an interview with the media after the game, head coach Nelson also bluntly said that Du's performance was surprising and that he would discuss with the team management to finalize a guaranteed contract with the young player as soon as possible.

Old Nelson's speech made Du Zhe very happy. It seems that he can also take a breath and use the system to improve his ability bit by bit with peace of mind.

After all, although all kinds of fancy star experience cards are very cool to use, they are not a long-term solution after all. The way to improve one's strength in a down-to-earth manner is king.

And next season, the rookie who changed the fate of the Warriors - Stephen Curry is coming.

And if he stays in the Warriors now, he might be able to assist in the future... No!Lead Curry to hit the championship throne.

The future is promising!The future is promising!Facing the interviewing media in front of him, Du Zhe couldn't help but reveal Wei Wei.
