Chapter 759 The Tyrants of the Bay Area in the Darkness (Continue Two in One)

"Are we playing the Warriors for the first time this season?" Eclipse said.

"That's right, are there any stars left in the Warriors' lineup?" Jon Jonsen continued.

"Byron Davis and Monta Ellis?" Salmons clearly had a bad memory.

"Byron went to the Clippers, and we only played against each other recently, and now the Warriors only have Ellis!" Crawford was the Warriors' second scorer last season, so he is naturally quite familiar with the Warriors.

"There is one more person who can't let his guard down!" Ruan Erniu said while checking the information on the tablet on the plane.

"Who?" Pachulia asked.

"Steph Curry, the No. 09 pick in the 7 class, this guy can get about 17+6+4 data per game, hit about 2 three-pointers, and hit more than 43%. Don't relax on him Be vigilant." Ruan Erniu said looking at the statistics of the Warriors.

"That baby-faced rookie? Has this guy graduated from high school?" Lunar Eclipse laughed.

Having said that, the generals of the Eagles in the cabin immediately cheered up.

Speaking of which, Ellis and Curry, the Warriors' backcourt double guns, are really an interesting combination.

They are similar in size and have excellent scoring ability, but there is too much difference in appearance. Alice (Ellis) and his surname are extremely inconsistent. It is a standard Zhengtai, and the image and the style of the entire NBA are very different.

Of course, there's more to the fun about this pair than that.

On the media day in 09, Ellis publicly stated in front of many media that he and Curry could not play together. Both of them were small guards and could not play the No. 1 and No. 2 positions on the field. He missed Baron Davis terribly.

This is a disaster for the Warriors' public relations department.

They have lost control of the situation. The current boss of the team is dissatisfied with the potential rookie who has just been recruited into the team.

Fortunately, almost half of the season has passed, and Ellis said it, but he didn't make too much trouble for the baby face in the actual game, otherwise Curry would not be able to get enough outstanding average data in the rookie game.

However, Ellis is right about one thing. From the record of the Warriors, it can be clearly seen that the so-called double guns in the backcourt is really unreliable. It's really a disadvantage.

In fact, the responsibility for the Warriors' poor defense is not only on the two backcourt players. With a coach like Don Nelson, don't expect them to devote enough attention to the defensive end. In addition, Stephen, who was traded away early *Jackson and Raja Bell, who has almost no chance to play, it is a strange thing that the Warriors have defense.

San Francisco Bay Area, a golf course.

"Stephen, do you think I can make a hole-in-one and make a birdie (golf term, a stroke of 1 under par)?" Ellis adjusted his posture, bent his knees, and swung.

The golf ball almost went into the hole, but unfortunately stopped within 1 yard.

Ellis shrugged helplessly, stepped forward to complete the final blow, a putt, and sent the ball into the hole.

"Pa (golf term, the number of strokes for hitting the hole is the same as the number of pars)! You are a bit unlucky." Curry smiled and stepped forward to pat Ellis' palm.

Then, in his own round, Babyface successfully made a birdie and successfully defeated the team leader.

After winning the game, Curry officially turned into a primary school student, walking around Ellis with a face shaking his head. According to the bet, he will not carry the bag for Ellis next week.

Monta Ellis looked at the childish Curry, but there was nothing he could do about the latter.

This guy is not only tender-faced, but sometimes he does pretty crazy things. Although he is a first-year rookie, he is really popular in the team.

After most of the season, everyone in the team got along well with this baby face, including him, the team leader who was once quite dissatisfied with Curry.

"Will a week be enough? Do you want to not have to carry a bag for me for a season?" Ellis said, gently propping up a golf club with one hand and hugging his elbow with the other.

"How to say?" Curry stopped the madness and asked.

"Hey, it's very simple, kill ATL with me tomorrow night!" Ellis said.

Curry blinked, his gray-green pupils glowed charmingly, and the baby face said slowly: "Can we do it? They are too powerful!"

Ellis smiled and waved his right hand, patted Curry on the shoulder, and then said with a pat on the baby-faced head: "Remember, this is also the motto of the Black Eight Warriors: 'The stronger the enemy, the stronger we are'!"

Curry's eyes were full of stars, and he said emotionally: "You guys relied on this to defeat the 67-win Dallas Mavericks?"

Ellis, who was packing up his clubs, turned around and said, "No, this is just what I said casually. At that time, everyone was thinking about one thing: kill the Mavericks!

Who told them to fire the coach (Sr. Nelson) and put us down in the last game of the regular season to make us into the playoffs? "

Curry: "..."

On February 2010, 2, US time, Oracle Arena in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The Atlanta Hawks, 52 wins and 1 loss, fly here, and their opponent is the Golden State Warriors, who are 15 wins and 39 losses this season.

In the West, the Warriors' record basically means that they bid farewell to this season's playoffs early.

Crawford, who stayed here for most of the season last season, is still very popular. After all, Ke 6 has left a record of 50 points in a single game here.

Erniu seems to be more popular here. Just inside the stadium, several Chinese fans came to cheer for Erniu wearing Erniu's No. 88 jersey.

San Francisco has always been a city where Chinese people gather. Every year, Yao, Er Niu, and even A Lian, who is a rookie season, come here and receive a very warm welcome.

For the Chinese living in the United States, yellow players like Erniu who can prove themselves in the NBA will naturally bring them a sense of pride.

The starting lineup sent by the Warriors tonight is:

C Andris Biedrins
PF Anthony Tolliver

SF Anthony Morrow
SG Stephen Curry
PG Monta Ellis

Who else is on the bench for the Warriors who are full of injuries?
The short point guard CJ Watson who can only fight in chaos, the obese Lakers veteran Devin George, and the unknown center Chris Hunter.

The Warriors have so few players who can play that it is doubtful that they will be able to field a stable rotation.

There are no changes to the Hawks' starting lineup:
C Ruan Erniu

PF Josh Smith

SF John Salmons
SG Joe Johnson

PG Goran Dragic
After more than half a season of running-in, Dragic has basically settled for the starting point guard position.

For the benefit of the team, Mike Bibby was also willing to abdicate, leaving more opportunities to young people full of infinite possibilities.

Facts have proved that the Eagles were extremely correct in the second round to attack the claw machine early. This is a win-win choice.

Erniu and Biedrins stood in the middle circle, and the starting players of the two teams also stood still. With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially began.

Er Niu jumped high, using super fast bullet speed, to pull the basketball away from Latvia's head.

Lunar Eclipse got the basketball in the backcourt, directly controlled the ball for half court, hesitated outside the three-point line, and finally handed the ball to Dragic, who reorganized it.

The Eagles have won more, and the players will naturally make waves, but in view of Woodson's authority, Eclipse finally did not choose to shoot birds after the opening.

Er Niu asked for the ball in the low post, and the claw machine made a false throw and sent the ball in.

Biedrins is rough and rough, and he was also a fierce man who could get 11+11 last season.

Of course, due to injuries this season, his data has dropped sharply. For players who rely on their bodies for food and have been unable to develop their shooting ability, like the Latvian, they have almost lost their future.

Er Niu easily chipped into the basket. While causing a foul by Biedrins, he made a one-handed dunk and scored the first point of the game.

2+1!

Er Niu then successfully made a penalty and added a penalty.

Ellis controlled the ball for halftime, and after a CROSSOVER, he entered the penalty area, and then, under the double-teaming of Er Niu and Lunar Eclipse, sent the ball to Morrow on the outside.

The latter missed a three-pointer, Er Niu got the rebound in the backcourt, and immediately took the ball to the frontcourt, switching offense and defense!

The Eagles hit the third line and went down quickly. The Bulls held the ball in the middle and sent a second pass to the ground. Salmons cut to the basket. After receiving the ball, he looked back at the moon and easily completed a layup.

After the opening, the Hawks were in better shape, but for the Warriors, Morrow, Toliver and even Curry felt very average.

But after the Hawks took the lead, they gradually became slack.

On the offensive end of the Warriors, Ellis first made use of a breakthrough, dodged around the basket, scored 2 points, and then he sent consecutive strikes for Curry.

At this time, the Eagles' defense also had problems. Jon Jonsen seemed to care too much about Curry's three-point warning before the Erniu game. Jon Jon Sen, who was not able to prevent sudden shots, paid the price for his carelessness.

Curry, who was inaccurate for three-pointers at the beginning of the first quarter, used his skillful and gorgeous ball-handling skills to continuously pass the defense of Jon Jonson, and hit consecutive large 17-pointers at a position of 19-2 feet.

Having fun, Curry even took the ball directly to the basket. Under the blockade of Erniu, he folded in the air and barely shot to attack the basket.

Although the ball still hit the iron in the end, Curry's amazing sense of space and his ability to control the timing of his shots are still undoubtedly revealed.

Babyface has never been a player who can only make three-pointers, and those who underestimate him will pay the price for it.

At 26:21, the Eagles only won by 5 points in the first quarter.

The Atlantans played casually, and after the first quarter, they didn't take the Warriors too seriously.

The game started soon in the second quarter. Don * Nelson kept doing nothing, and used a crazier lineup. He replaced Morrow, replaced CJ* Watson, and went directly to the three small lineups, just to compete with the Eagles A comparison of speed and accuracy.

Ruan Erniu, who was sitting off the court, was also stunned. He thought that the Suns' V-shaped running and bombing was already the ultimate offensive. He never thought that the mad scientist could play a terrifying three-back lineup.

Er Niu even suspects that if the Warriors can have enough capable backcourt players, it is not necessarily possible that the old Nelson may even directly play the five guards.

However, crazy is crazy, old Nelson bet right at least in the first half of the second quarter!
Curry and Ellis fired successively, quickly tied and overtook the score.

Woodson immediately requested a timeout, on the one hand to arrange a corresponding defensive strategy, and on the other hand to interrupt the fiery touch of the Warriors.

This is the terrible thing about the old Nelson team. Everyone knows that they are not good at defense, but when they are really accurate, there is almost no way to prevent them from scoring.

Er Niu was quickly put back on the field, but in the next game, he was not the protagonist on the field.

Someone from the Eagles stood up, and he was Jamal Crawford.

Facing the fierce offensive end of the Warriors, Ke 6 also showed his super offensive talent. With an unreasonable three-pointer, Crawford just threw it at the defender!

Really advanced!
The CCTV guest in charge of the live broadcast was obviously Su Junyang, but seeing Crawford's unreasonable offensive style, many Tianchao fans still unconsciously played the magic voice of Director Zhang in their minds.

Woodson also had no choice. Anyway, depending on the situation, he couldn't stop the Warriors' fierce offensives one after another. He simply used poison to fight poison, and also used Crawford's unreasonable offensive methods to solve the problem.

This is the start of a good show against Biao!
Here, Ellis had continuous luck with his crotch, and hit a three-pointer with a retreat step; over there, Crawford immediately crossovered the defender, leaned back almost at the same position with great difficulty, and forcibly threw in an ANSWERBALL.

Over there, Curry broke through the basket, and under the successive defenses of Erniu and Lunar Eclipse, he completed a difficult throw; over there, Crawford drove the ball to the basket, facing Biedrins Assist defense, drift back and make a shot, hit!
All kinds of fairy balls are dazzling, and the hit rate of both sides is very high, so the appreciation is surprisingly good.

The fight was played happily enough, but once this happened, the rhythm of the game was not in the hands of the Eagles.

At 28:33, the Eagles trailed by 5 points in a single quarter, and the first half ended. At 54:54, the two sides drew a tie.

In the second quarter of the game, both Crawford and Ellis scored 13 points in a single quarter and became the team's indispensable scorers.

The Warriors are used to letting the two guns in the backcourt solve the problem, but the Eagles are a little uncomfortable here. Er Niu and Jiongsen have become the foil for Crawford, and the overall advantages of the Eagles have not been brought into play.

The mighty Atlanta Hawks did not take advantage of the league's recognized underdog Golden State Warriors.

When Nelson was interviewed in midfield, when he was asked why he sent three guards, he said: "In my eyes, the position is not important. own attack rhythm.

The Atlanta Hawks are not without weaknesses, as long as they enter our rhythm, things will be much easier! "

Nelson was right. After replacing the three guards, the Warriors ran all over the court, while the Hawks began to run out.

The Eagles also pay attention to ultra-fast offensive and defensive transitions, but that is based on a stable defense, and throughout the second quarter, the Atlanta people only ran wild.

During the intermission, Er Niu directly grabbed Woodson's right to speak and said: "Don't just focus on the opponent's three-pointer. We must watch the opponent from the outside, and we must not give them a chance to shoot easily within the three-point line. The Warriors are not Teams that can only shoot long shots, we have to get nervous, now is XX game time."

Ruan Erniu must be dissatisfied with the slackness of his teammates. Although they have won a lot, it does not mean that they can continue to win.

There are things in the league that want to subvert the Hawks' existence, and the Warriors are clearly one of them.

For a team like the Golden State Warriors who are almost fighting for dignity, being able to defeat the so-called strongest Atlanta Hawks in history in a bad season is undoubtedly a desperate outbreak and victory. Great time to make a name for yourself.

Even in the United States, the drama of diaosi's counterattack is still exciting and applauding big news.

The third quarter started quickly. Er Niu Niujiao held the ball in the basket. After a fake move, Biedrins flew into the lane with the ball, and a tomahawk dunk, announcing that the Eagles had entered attack mode. .

Ellis controlled the ball for half court and chose to go it alone. Without throwing off the claw machine defense, Ellis chose to hold the ball and directly hit the basket.

Er Niu who has been waiting for a long time will naturally not give him any chance.

"Boom!"

With a shocking hat, Er Niu dribbled the ball and slapped out the bottom line together. Alice really thought she was in Wonderland, but unfortunately he didn't have a pair of magic shoes on his feet that could realize his dream.

Not admitting defeat, Ellis continued to choose to face the claw machine's defense and forcefully shoot.

"boom!"

Strike it!

Er Niu protected the backcourt rebound, "Brute Bull Sprint"!
No one in the frontcourt could stop the Erniu's attack, and the Celestials faced Morrow's help defense, and made the opponent lose their temper with a European step.

Er Niu jumped up high, swinging his arm with one hand and smashing the buckle!
"boom!"

The domineering bullying came to Oracle, and only the Chinese players shouted loudly on the scene.

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

……

The Warriors were suspended, the strength of the Eagles was too deep, Ruan Erniu, who only scored 14 points in the first half, was fully in the game, the Eagles have been fighting alone in this game, but even if they are alone, the Warriors It doesn't seem to have reached the top either.

Old Nelson had no good solution. After the timeout ended, he could only slightly adjust the lineup and continue to fight against the Hawks, but Ruan Erniu, who had entered the explosive state, was really hard to resist.

In this quarter, the Celestial made 8 of 8 shots and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists in a single quarter. He almost defeated the entire Warriors team by himself.

At 42:22, the Hawks took a 20-point lead in a single quarter. At 96:76, the Hawks had the full initiative before the game started in the final quarter.

In the final quarter of the game, the Atlanta Hawks, who thought everything would be fine, almost made another counterattack.

Stephen Curry suddenly entered the Meng God mode, shooting from the outside again and again, and the 20-point difference was not safe. With 50 seconds left in the final quarter, Meng Ku led the Warriors to catch up to only 2 points left.

In the end, Ruan Erniu stepped forward again!

The Bulls did not confront Curry from beyond the three-point line, but returned to the low position they are most familiar with, and used post-up singles again and again to steadily score points for the Eagles.

In the countdown period, Monta Ellis had a chance to drag the game into overtime, but the claw machine made another contribution at the critical moment, and a clean cut made Ellis return without success, thus marking the end of the game There is a rest.
