Super Small Forward

: 627. Wharton's Last Weapon

From a disappointed sigh to standing up and screaming in surprise.

The live Lakers fans felt the adrenaline exploded!

Little Nance glided a terrifying distance in the air and then knocked over Randall to dunk the ball into the basket. The scene was played back repeatedly on the big screen in the center of the court. Randall turned around in the air and hit Little Nance on his shoulder. Was called a defensive foul.

Now Randall is not well, was that a dunk made by a man just now?

Little Nance and his teammates celebrated wildly. After the Warriors called a timeout, the Lakers were all excited to rush up and cheer Little Nance high-five.

But what made Nance a little surprised was that Liu Ren who passed the ball seemed very calm.

Only Liu Ren looked at Xiao Nansi with puzzled eyes. Yes, he was pretending to be forced again, with an expression of "Is this difficult for you?"...

Unlike other people who think that this is because Liu Ren missed the shot and was turned into an assist by Xiao Nance, it was because of good luck, but Xiao Nance felt that Liu Ren attached great importance to him. Liu Ren seemed to believe that he could score this goal. He was very excited about the outrageous air-receiving pass, because most of the Lakers were traded back by Liu Ren for the management, and even 13 of the 18 players on the team were Liu Ren’s own players. , Little Nance happened to be one of the five players who were not Liu Ren's company. The Lakers will definitely build the team around Liu Ren in the future, so he is actually worried about whether he can stay with the Lakers in the future, so I feel Liu Ren treats him. He is very excited...

So excited that almost missed a free throw.

But it doesn't matter, the morale of the Lakers that was almost completely consumed by the Warriors was once again ignited by Liu Ren's whim and cooperation with Nance.

At the same time, the morale of the Warriors dropped drastically, and the deterrence of this dunk was too great!

After the timeout came back, the Warriors, despite their hard work, were somewhat downturned. The Lakers took advantage of this momentum to make a wave of offense.

After three quarters, the Lakers once again led the Warriors by 12 points 93-81.

Wharton looked at the little Nance of the Lakers. Is this a rookie drafted with the 27th overall pick in the first round? Is it a draft year in 2015?

Wharton has always believed that the better the Lakers' talent, the happier he will be, but for the first time now he feels that the Lakers' talent is too good and it makes him a little uncomfortable. Now this Warriors team he temporarily coaches is his future for a bigger stage. Bargaining chips, how much power he can have in the future depends on how good he can achieve this temporary coaching. Of course, his current results have allowed countless teams to prepare him and the Warriors to poach him after the one-year contract ends. , But he still wants better results.

Wharton changed the starting lineups of Curry, Klay Thompson, Randall, Barnes, and Jason Thompson in the final quarter.

D'Antoni played Korver and Nance, making the team a combination of LaVine, Kobe, Korver, Nance and Gasol.

The Warriors' possession of the ball was handed over to Barnes after halftime by Curry. Tactically, Barnes held the ball first.

Barnes took the ball and threatened the Lakers a lot.

But now Liu Ren has played almost three quarters and needs a little rest. Barnes's role has increased significantly. The biggest problem for the Lakers now is that apart from Liu Ren, Antetokounmpo is the best perimeter defensive player. In fact, there is one point that is not enough. LaVine is still in the growth stage. He has a good defensive attitude and awareness, but he is too skinny and lacks experience. It's okay to deal with the second team players. Prevent Barnes from changing the team It's still difficult for an easy opponent with an average of 20+, so the one who defends Barnes is... Kobe.

Yes, Clarkson was too tired to defend against Curry. Curry was too able to run. Nick Young... I didn’t get a chance to play today. Although the Lakers are mainly offensive today, defense is still very important. Nick Young’s Jacic style Defensively, defending against ordinary teams is okay. With the overall defense of the team, there is still a little bit of assistance, but the players who defend against the Warriors... are almost equivalent to adding a scope to the opponent!

The best defensive perimeter player among the remaining Lakers is actually Kobe... D'Antoni looked at Bickerstaff a lot. Bickerstaff didn't speak, obviously there was no way.

Henry and Ci Shiping in the Development League are defensive well, but Ci Shiping is old, and it is somewhat effective to defend against muscular men like Anthony and James. It is estimated that this group of deadly shooters from the Warriors can be treated in a few minutes. Room.

And Henry... layups and dunks are okay. In the drunken Los Angeles, he has no fighting spirit and won the championship. Now he thinks about playing NBA occasionally and earning 550,000 salary. More than 1 million endorsement fees, and occasionally commercial performance activities to earn tens of thousands of dollars, save money, buy a house, mix in nightclubs, and live a chic life.

The Lakers are still very humane. Henry is a kid in Los Angeles, so he gave a two-way contract, occasionally hitting weak teams to dunk up to improve morale, and it was enough to make fans cheer.

In the face of Kobe, Barnes made two consecutive dribbles with one hand and accelerated abruptly. Just like that, Kobe was passed.

It’s not that Kobe’s defense is not good, but Barnes’s physical fitness was originally the top group among small forwards. Few offenses with the ball doesn’t mean that he is not good at holding the ball, but Steve Kerr doesn’t like it. He, because he took the ball mostly by himself.

But Barnes played very well here at Walton. Walton has been with the Zen master for a long time, and has also been with D'Antoni. The romantic spirit that players can do if they have ideas is deeply carved into his coaching philosophy.

Of course, this means that the team coached by Wharton must have good talents, but according to his 29-game winning streak in coaching the Warriors, it has proved that he can maximize his talents and can fully display the talents of players. A few coaches can do it.

Barnes took advantage of the opportunity to get to the Lakers' basket and collided with Gasol.

Gasol's defense is in place, but Barnes can shoot after hitting Gasol, picking the ball with one hand, and the ball flew from Gasol's fingertips into the Lakers' basket.

Whiteside was tired from running and rested off the court. Green also had to save his energy to play the last moments. The Lakers' defense inside was really desperate.

83 to 93, the Warriors are still ten minutes behind the Lakers.

The Lakers offense.

LaVine, Kobe, and Gasol are all players who can launch offense. However, at this time, LaVine can't do much to face the Warriors' defense. At this time, the Warriors have increased their defense to the maximum intensity.

Except for Kobe, the Lakers lineup has almost no ability to attract double teams. Kobe can only play singles and another three-pointer!

Kobe's ninth three-pointer in this field...Finally missed, and just one short of his own career record of nine consecutive three-pointers, the fans let out a sigh.

Kobe missed a shot! The Warriors instantly felt that the opportunity had come and their morale was stronger. Jason Thompson took the rebound and passed it back to Curry.

Curry quickly rushed towards the Lakers' halftime.

The Warriors were about to make an offensive and defensive transition. The Lakers rushed to catch up at this time. The library faced LaVine who was overtaken by a slow-paced change. LaVine posted it and wanted to stick it, but Curry changed its direction under the hip. He was easily given to him, and then he avoided the little Nance who came back and made a layup.

The Warriors are so hard to deal with, and they are persevering. As long as there is a little chance, the Warriors can launch a wave of offense to reverse the game.

The beginning of the fourth quarter was a good time for the Warriors to chase points, and they did not waste this opportunity. During the time when Kobe's hand fell, the Warriors continued to score.

Although the lineups of the two sides are not equal, the Warriors have a clear advantage and quickly tied the score, but this is still very surprising, even the Warriors themselves are very excited.

Fighting, the Warriors played a wave of 16 to 4, chasing the score to 97!

Barnes and Curry's alternate singles and counterattacks drove the Warriors' offense!

The score was tied, D'Antoni hurriedly called a timeout.

D'Antoni quickly put on the strongest lineup, with Antetokounmpo, Kobe, Liu Ren, Green and Whiteside playing.

The Lakers' main lineup has an obvious effect on the court. Whiteside came up to grab Green's offensive rebound from the middle distance and caused Jason Thompson to foul when making a tip.

Whiteside made a good free throw today. This time he made two free throws.

99 to 97, the point difference between the two teams is still not widened, but the Lakers have replaced the main force, which is a threat to the Warriors.

The Warriors advanced quickly after Whiteside's free throw, but the Lakers have returned to defend Ovie.

Curry took the ball and immediately called Jason Thompson's high screen. Using this high screen, Curry hit the free throw line and suddenly threw a mid-range jumper.

Curry's mid-range...really average, too far behind the three-pointer and the basket's shooting percentage, and missed a jumper from the free throw line.

but! Randall's desperate rebound was caught by Whiteside and Liu Ren to get the ball out. Curry received the ball and Antetokounmpo went straight to cover it. It was okay to break through, but there was no three-pointer!

Curry quickly transferred to Randall, who rushed to grab an offensive rebound and pulled to the right mid-range.

Randall received the ball and immediately broke through to attract the Lakers' defense, and quickly passed the ball to Jason Thompson under the basket. Jason Thompson took the ball for a layup and scored two points.

The Warriors Lakers are back in a tug of war. In this process, the Lakers have the advantage of size, but the Warriors score more points and can score more, the game began to fall into anxiety.

The Lakers have a stronger defense and the Warriors have a stronger offense. The two teams are equal from the current situation.

In the fourth quarter, Liu Ren’s most important task after coming on the court is no longer to score, and the team needs more defense, because the Warriors lineup, whether it is falling into position or entering the fast break, must defend the Lakers. It's hard, unless the Lakers feel bad, but Kobe still feels hot. After missing a shot, although his shooting percentage is not as exaggerated as the first three quarters, he still maintains his scoring efficiency. The rest of the Lakers also have scoring opportunities, such as Whiteside's second offense, Antetokounmpo's ready cut at any time, Green's mid- and long-range shooting, so Liu Ren put more experience into the defense.

Liu Ren was on the court in the fourth quarter, defending outside, stuck inside, grabbed rebounds, and did all the dirty work.

In the fourth quarter, Liu Ren mainly attracted defense to help his teammates score.

After Randall and Barnes on the Warriors got the ball, the former passed when they had a chance, and went inside if there was no chance. Barnes rushed inside when he got the ball, and Liu Ren was not able to defend it every time. , And Barnes made it clear that he was going to kill Green and Whiteside. Green and Whiteside fouled a lot in this quarter, but fortunately, the first three quarters were not particularly long and the foul situation was still very good.

By the 9th minute of the fourth quarter, the Lakers and the Warriors had been in a stalemate. The Lakers led the Warriors by 1 point 113 to 112.

Seeing that the points difference couldn't be opened, the Lakers became anxious.

The Warriors have reached a peak here! Because the Lakers just made a three-pointer out of bounds, the Warriors have the ball, they have a chance to overtake it!

The Warriors came over at this time, and Curry, Barnes, and Randall were focused on defense.

At this time, Mr. 37 points in a single quarter, facing Kobe's defense, Klay Thompson directly shot a three-pointer after receiving the ball!

"Huh"

After a stalemate for so long. Klay Thompson's three-pointer shot directly through the heart of the Lakers like a cold arrow.

The Warriors overtook the Lakers, 115 to 113. The Warriors took the lead for the first time after leading once in the opening game.

And it was when there were less than 3 minutes left!

Seeing Klay Thompson score, D'Antoni was shocked. The players on the field may not feel the game, but as a coach and as a fan, D'Antoni found a problem~www.readwn.com~ After Klay Thompson played in the fourth quarter, apart from being a three-pointer, he basically didn't make a shot!

However, at this time, the Lakers players are almost reaching their limit. Kobe is already very tired and can't jump off the Klay Thompson defense. Liu Ren rested for a few minutes in the second quarter and less than three minutes in the fourth quarter. In addition, he has always been responsible for perimeter defense and has to pay attention to the running position to attract the defense. There are also major physical problems. Green and Randall were also exhausted by this muscle lump in the contest. Whiteside and Antetokounmpo Although Bo's two seven-footers have good physical fitness, they are tired after running back and forth with the Warriors.

Curry, Barnes, Randall, and Jason Thompson on the Warriors side are also very tired.

However, Klay Thompson was different. He almost didn't move in the fourth quarter. He stood at the bottom corner to open up the inside space. At this time, he was a perfect force!

D'Antoni looked at Walton, and Wharton felt D'Antoni look back and smiled.

Obviously, this is Wharton's purpose!

D'Antoni didn't expect it! Actually miscalculated at this point!

Yes, this is the last weapon Wharton left!

The game is still going on. The Lakers are really overstretched. When Liu Ren sat in the low post to attract double teams, his teammates didn’t get a mobile meeting. In the end, Liu Ren could only pass to Green and Green came out. Take the ball forcibly long shot, the result was capped by Randall!

Randall got the ball!

The Warriors took the ball and slowly advanced, they were ready to start to beat the rhythm, Curry passed the ball to Klay Thompson outside, who made another three-pointer!

"Huh!"

Still in!

With a little more than two minutes left, the Warriors overtook the Lakers by five points! The scale of victory tilts towards the Warriors!
