Chapter 680 Five Warriors Must Win!

"Dwyane, it looks like the guys in Oakland are still strong." Staring at the screen, James said disapprovingly to Wade on the side.On the screen, there are crowds of people on a pitch dominated by black and white, and from a distance lens, a few players can be vaguely seen walking towards the pitch.

"Of course, LeBron, I think the Spurs are not easy now." Wade also stared at the screen.

The Spurs really don't feel relaxed now, being dragged into the tiebreaker by the Warriors. Although they have home court advantage, the state and fighting spirit shown by the Warriors in the sixth game still make them have to deal with it carefully.

"We must do a better job of defending Yang, and we cannot let him attack casually like the last game. This will play a very important role in whether we can win the final victory..." The camera cuts, and the screen cuts out A sub-shot was taken, which was a picture of Duncan being interviewed before the game. [

The reason why Duncan emphasized this is because Yang Shuai scored 52 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists in the sixth game.

He scored 15 points in the first quarter, 8 points in the second quarter, and 17 points in the third quarter. After the third quarter, Yang Shuai had raised his score to 40 points. After entering the fourth quarter, Yang Shuai's offensive firepower did not Weakened, scoring 12 points in a single quarter, while the team firmly secured the victory, it also increased its score to 52.

This is the second time in Yang Shuai's career that he scored 50 points in a single game in the playoffs. The first time was in the second game against the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals last season. In the game, Yang Shuai used his own scoring to help the team win.

Since Iverson left Turkey this season, Yang Shuai has become the only active player who has scored 50 points more than twice in the playoffs, and his 52 points are also the highest score in a single playoff game by active players .

As mentioned in Duncan's interview, for the Spurs, how to limit Yang Shuai's fiery state in the game is a key factor for their victory.

"Beep!" Amidst the shouts of the Spurs fans, the referee blew the whistle to start the game, and Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals officially started.

At the beginning of the game, Yang Shuai also quickly realized the determination of the Spurs to defend him. Popovich was obviously determined to prevent Yang Shuai from scoring, so he did not hesitate to leave the rest of the Warriors open in some rounds.

Body entangled with Jefferson, Yang Shuai tried his best to raise his hand to receive Hinrich's pass, and then suddenly turned around and rushed to the basket.

"Pow!" Yang Shuai had just started and was forced to stop. In front of him, Duncan and McDyess appeared at the same time, making him instantly caught in the double-team of the three.

The defense of the three is very tight. Even with Yang Shuai's passing skills, he can't easily throw the ball to Jamison, who is outside the three-point line on the right.

When Yang Shuai passed the ball to Hinrich and the latter transferred it to Jamison, the Spurs' defense had a buffer time, and Jamison, who was disturbed, shot out of the basket.

At the other end, the Spurs’ offense was handed over to Duncan. After running, Ginobili pulled the ball past Evans’ defense and rushed to the basket, then passed the ball back to Duncan. Duncan received the ball and stepped up. basket succeeded.

"Beep!" The referee blew his whistle, and the Warriors paused.

"The Warriors had some problems. They were guarded by the Spurs. Young and his teammates couldn't show the touch like they did in the last game..."

The Warriors do have a problem, and it's a big one.Halfway through the first quarter, they only scored 8 points.Yang Shuai was strictly guarded. Almost every time he had to face more than two defenders with the ball, his offense was greatly affected. In the first half of the offense, he only scored 2 points in four shots.

The Spurs' defense did show a completely different intensity from the previous few games. While double-teaming Yang Shuai, they also did a very good job of defensive rotation for the rest of the Warriors, especially for the Warriors' perimeter defense. The Warriors failed to hit a three-pointer.

Of the 8 points the Warriors scored, Evans scored 4 points, and he became the most normal player for the Warriors, scoring 4 points with three shots.

While defending the Warriors' offense, the Spurs' offense was going very well. In half a quarter, the Spurs had already scored 18 points.After only halfway through the first quarter and falling behind by 10 points, Nelson naturally had to make necessary adjustments.

With Channing Frye replacing Jamison, Nelson also made appropriate adjustments to the lineup when making tactical arrangements. [

Back on the court, Hinrich handed the ball to Yang Shuai again, Yang Shuai had just received the ball, and there were two defenders beside him, without dribbling, Yang Shuai quickly passed the ball to Evans hands.After receiving the ball, Evans rushed to the basket and got a foul opportunity. He made two free throws and finally raised the Warriors to 10 points.

To increase Evans' offensive opportunities, this is the tactical adjustment made by Nelson, using Yang Shuai to attract defensive attention and then allowing Evans to participate more in the offense.

Evans' state is indeed quite normal. After the old Nelson's adjustment, the Warriors' offense has also improved, but they still failed to prevent the Spurs' offense.

At 19:31, after the first quarter, the Warriors trailed by 12 points.Seeing such a score, the Warriors fans are suspicious. Facing a team like the Spurs, the 12-point hole is not easy to fill.

After only a 2-minute break in the second quarter, Yang Shuai played again, and he consciously increased his shots.He knew very well that if he could not attack effectively in the double-team of the Spurs, it would be impossible for his teammates to chase points, let alone win.

At this time, Yang Shuai couldn't help but regret secretly in his heart. If he could completely pass the double-teaming in the space limit training at this time, maybe it would be easier to attack again.

It is not easy to keep the shooting percentage above 50.00% when facing two very good defensive players. Yang Shuai's ability at this time is still a little bit short to pass the first level of extreme training.

More importantly, Yang Shuai's own hand feeling is not very good today, which is why Yang Shuai consciously increased his shots. He must find the hand feel as soon as possible.

Halfway through the second quarter in the blink of an eye, the ratio of the players on both sides remained at 12 points. The Warriors' offense in this quarter has improved compared to the first quarter. They have scored 13 points in half a quarter, but the Spurs' offense is still Strong, which also makes the Warriors unable to close the gap.

Yang Shuai stopped in front of Parker, but his opponent did not intend to attack with the ball at this time, but focused his eyes on Ginobili and Jefferson who were preparing to run.The bottom line suddenly ran back, Jefferson rushed out of the three-point range, and the ball in Parker's hand also stepped forward at this time.

"Bang!" Hinrich's defense was timely, and Jefferson's shot went out of the basket due to the interference of his defense.

"Tyson, be careful!" Chandler grabbed the backcourt rebound, and Yang Shuai shouted at this time, but Yang Shuai's shouting still failed to remind Chandler in time.Ginobili ran to the basket and quickly cut off the ball from Chandler's hands.

What happened next made Yang Shuai frown slightly. Ginobili picked up the ball and took off directly, causing a foul by Chandler.

Ginobili made two free throws and widened the point difference between the two teams to 14 points. At the other end, Hinrich did not find a good opportunity to hand the ball to Yang Shuai, and the ball fell directly into the running In the hands of Evans.

After catching the ball, Evans flashed open from Ginobili's defense and made a mid-range jumper.

"Bang!" Evans' rhythm was very good, but the ball fell into Duncan's hands after hitting the inside of the basket. The cheers on the scene became more and more high at this time. Players also seem to be getting more excited.

Outside the three-point line on the right, after receiving the ball, Ginobili had a not-so-good shooting opportunity but hit a three-pointer.

"Spurs! Spurs!" The shouts of the Spurs at home almost overturned the entire arena. Parker's throw made the point difference between the two teams reach 2 at 04 minutes and 20 seconds before the end of the second quarter.

The Warriors launched an attack again. Yang Shuai ran in the middle distance on the right and feinted a shot, then suddenly started to break through and rushed to the basket.

Leaning on Jefferson, Yang Shuai changed hands in the air to avoid Duncan's supplementary defense, but the ball circled in the basket and fell out of the basket after hitting the rebound.Jumping up quickly after landing, Yang Shuai gently dialed the ball out of the basket into the basket.

With only 25 seconds left in the second quarter, Yang Shuai turned around and shot a jumper after receiving the ball from the middle distance on the left. The ball hit the inside of the basket and fell into the basket instead.

The whistle sounded at the end of the first half, and Yang Shuai took the lead to walk towards the player tunnel. Although he scored 4 points in a row at the end of the second quarter, Yang Shuai did not feel relaxed at all. 44:63, after halftime, the Warriors trailed the Spurs by 19 points. [

Entering the locker room, none of the Warriors players spoke, and the locker room fell into silence for a while.

"Everyone raise your head!" Old Nelson's roar made all the Warriors players quickly raise their heads, glanced at all the players, and the old Nelson continued to roar: "The game is over? Your summer has begun? I listen It was the half-time whistle, not the full-time whistle!"

"What's wrong with being behind by 19 points? Do you know how much the biggest comeback in nb is? 36 points! Even in the playoffs now, there are so many big comebacks. Yang, do you remember how many points the Celtics reversed the Lakers in the 08 Finals? "

"22!" Yang Shuai replied quickly, he remembered that game very clearly.

Staring at Yang Shuai, Old Nelson continued to ask, "Did you give up on that game?"

"no!"

"What about now?" Old Nelson raised his voice.

"No!" Yang Shuai also shouted, "I didn't give up, none of us gave up, we still have two quarters left. They can win 19 points at halftime, so can we!"

"Yes, we still have two quarters left! Show your passion and strength, and don't let the people in Miami who are watching the game laugh at the Warriors for being afraid to meet their Big Three in the finals!"

"The warrior must win!" Old Nelson's words made Yang Shuai clenched his fists and roared!

"Warriors must win!"

"The brave must win!"

"The brave must win!"

In the locker room of the visiting team, the shouts sounded again and again. Amid such roars, the fighting spirit of the Warriors players became more and more high!
