Zhou Xuan didn't score a point in the first half, and missed all of his shots twice, but he gave out six assists and one steal. Iverson scored six points, making just one on 1-of-5 shooting, and the other four came from a foul free throw on a breakaway.

The game was only broadcast live on local television, and Golden State fans were surprised to find that Iverson couldn't beat Zhou Xuan if he didn't rely on cover, and he couldn't get the upper hand in several singles attacks. Zhou Xuan, who was originally predicted to defend the black hole, did not become an irreparable defect for the team, and also played the role of a defensive player in this game.

Stanley, the field announcer, eats a burger during his break and starts chatting with his partner Hank.

"Although Zhou Xuan didn't score, I think he still played very well, and he didn't fall behind against Iverson, what do you think?"

"I think so too, have you noticed that Zhou Xuan has a characteristic?"

"Do you have a lot of assists?"

"No, he's always blank on the court, which reminds me of Duncan." Hank laughed.

Stanley also thought it was strange. "He always smiles before the game."

In the audience, Liu Yang was also curious about this question. "Why did your man become so ruthless as soon as he came on the field? I didn't see him have an expression when I overtook the score, which was terrifying. ”

"He did it on purpose, so that his opponent would not know what he was thinking." Nie Yuyan explained, and did not refute Liu Yang's title of "your man".

"I thought he was the same with you."

"How is that possible?" Nie Yuyan said with a smile. The two are together, Zhou Xuan often tells jokes and has a very cheerful personality.

"He's back now, when are you going to offer the keys to his apartment? He goes to play away, and you are the hostess of the house. Liu Yang diverted the topic.

"Forget it, I don't think that's good." Nie Yuyan smiled bitterly.

"It's not good for you to be so lukewarm with him, listen to me hurry up and match the key, don't you have a sense of crisis? He's going to Los Angeles for the next game, maybe something will happen to the Olsen sisters, your rival is too strong. Liu Yang sighed.

"......" Nie Yuyan sighed, she didn't know how to open her mouth to Zhou Xuan, and took the key as if she could live with him, was this kind of thing what she wanted?

In the Warriors locker room, Nelson Sr. is emphasizing letting Zhou Xuan speed up and try to complete the offense before the opponent's joint defense is in position. If you can't defend the interior on the defensive end, you have to foul early, and you can't let the opponent score easily. The offensive strength of several of their interior lines is very average, mainly defensively.

On the Pistons side, Michael? Curry made an extremely bold adjustment. Prince was on top of the No. 4 position, Starkey controlled the ball, Hamiston and Iverson were on either side, and only Rashid was left on the inside? Wallace. Dare to play like this because the Warriors' interior offense is so poor, as long as they guard Biedrins, it's nothing. Prince won't have a problem with Wright, both of whom are about the same height and reach. If Turyaf is on it, let Wallace deal with it, and Prince will defend against Bidrins. The offensive end picks up the tempo, and the outside trio plays a fast break together.

Without Margety and Harrington, the Pistons can completely disdain the Warriors' interior line, which is the disadvantage of poor offense in the low post.

After the start of the second half, the Warriors players saw that the opposing lineup was a little confused, who is the running team? Zhou Xuan dribbled to the front court, still facing Iverson, Iverson did a good job in defending the breakthrough, and Zhou Xuan couldn't easily pass without relying on cover. When Wright came out to cover, the person who changed the defense became Prince, which made Zhou Xuan even more uncomfortable, he chose to pass, Azubuuk couldn't make a pull-up jumper, the rebound was obtained by Wallace, and the Pistons' counterattack came immediately.

Wallace passed to Starkey, who passed to Iverson, who in turn passed to Hamilton. The Warriors' formation was disrupted due to misalignment, and Hamilton faced Zhou Xuan and hit a pull-up jump shot. 49 to 50.

The Warriors attacked, but Zhou Xuan still couldn't get a good shot, handed the ball to Jackson, and ran by himself. Now the defender of Jackson has become Hamilton, he has the advantage of height and strength, dribbling the ball into the three-point line and then another jumper, today he has a bad hand, still missed.

Prince grabbed the rebound. Wright was too thin and didn't have a strength advantage in the face of Prince, and was stuck in position. Prince immediately made a long pass, and Iverson could finally play his strengths, quickly changing direction in the run past Zhou Xuan and scoring in basketball. 49 to 52.

"Hit the inside line, block and dismantle, and cut in the air." Zhou Xuan shouted when he controlled the ball over half court, he was most afraid of Jackson standing up now, he had made 4 three-pointers today, only hit one, if he entered the dry pull mode, the Warriors were only afraid of being unlucky.

The teammates ran the position, Zhou Xuan passed the ball to Wright and singled Prince, which should be considered a misalignment, but Prince is really not short, with 206CM, which is a real height, because he was afraid of playing inside after entering the NBA, and the shortcomings of insufficient confrontation ability would appear, and there was no false report. AND HIS ARM SPAN IS 221CM, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR THE OPPONENT TO BREAK THROUGH HIM FROM THE OUTSIDE, AND MANY DEFENDERS ARE HELPLESS ABOUT IT. In addition, his bounce is also outstanding, probably because of his light body, and he once performed a crotch change dunk at the All-Star Weekend rookie game.

Wright singled Prince, took a step and turned to shoot with interference missed, and the rebound was picked up by Prince again.

After the Pistons went on a fast break, Hamilton and Iverson started to work in the second half, and the two of them scored the first 10 points of the third quarter for the Pistons, and then Wallace hit another three-pointer. The Warriors only scored two points from Jackson's foul free throws. Zhou Xuan saw that his teammates couldn't open it, so he tried to shoot twice, but he still missed all of them.

The Pistons went on a 13-2 run and the Warriors trailed 51-61. The Pistons' defense also played a role, and they didn't allow the Warriors to make a single shot in the opening 5:11 of the quarter.

After that, the old Nelson also let go, replacing Wright, who had no way to take Prince, and replaced it with CJ Watson, leaving only Biedrins on the inside, and Jackson played a cameo in the No. 4 position, resolutely attacking the opponent.

Watson felt okay today, and he made a successful shot on the court, and Iverson immediately ran out of the outside to catch the ball, and shot a three-point shot with color. Then Azubuke scored on a jumper, and Zhou Xuan finally relied on a breakthrough layup to score, and his shooting felt terrible today, and this was the first time he scored.

The stalemate between the two sides began, and the Warriors could not close the score, which made the fans anxious to watch.

Iverson scored back-to-back 3-pointers with one minute left in the quarter, and then he assisted Wallace to score on a basket to extend the deficit. 69-85, the Warriors trailed by 16 points, scoring only 20 points in a single quarter, and let the opponent completely open.

Iverson and Hamilton scored the most, in fact, the biggest contributors to the Pistons in this section were Prince, Rashid? Wallace's ability to control rebounds has not been strong, and he has only 8 in a single season in his career, which is very inefficient. Prince made a cameo appearance at the No. 4 position and grabbed seven backcourt rebounds in a single quarter, which became a guarantee for the Pistons to launch a fast break.

Wallace, on the other hand, allowed Biedrins to grab three frontcourt rebounds, and on the offensive end, he could only rely on his teammates to create opportunities and shoot in a misplaced position. He is indeed old, and he is no longer the all-round big forward of the Trail Blazers who could average close to 20+ points per game and score both high and low posts.

Nelson Sr. was furious at the break, the Warriors are known for their running and bombing, and now the fast pace can't beat the Pistons, or in front of the home audience, isn't it a shame?

Now they have two choices, one is to continue to run and fight, and fight with the Pistons. The second is to replace Turyaf to strengthen the defense, like the first quarter of the joint defense, on the offensive end, Prince can guard Wright and Jackson, not necessarily the strong Turiaf. In this way, the Warriors will have to change the tempo.

After consulting with the assistant coach, Nelson Sr. decided to bring on Turyaf to strengthen the defense. They're trying to win, not how fast they are.

Before going on the court, the old Nelson instructed Zhou Xuan: "I hope you can stand up and break through boldly, instead of seeing the opponent's big man come forward and pass the ball, you have an advantage, Wallace is already a veteran who is about to retire, I believe you can pass him, you must pass him to score!" ”

Zhou Xuan nodded solemnly, excessive pursuit of stability is also a kind of cowardice. Old Nelson didn't scold him, he only reasoned with him, because he didn't want to stimulate his nerves. It's all because his starting point is too low, and he is a rookie, and it's not easy to play to the current level.

For the others, the elder Nelson was not so polite, and it was Azubuke who bore the brunt of it. "Corunna, are you running around the field? I told you to defend hard, what did you do, you couldn't stop Hamilton, you wouldn't even foul, you just fouled now, do you think someone will give you a gentleman's award after the game? ”

Then old Nelson looked at Jackson again. "Stephen, you're the leader of this team, the top scorer, and you have to lead by example and play morale. Don't keep making jumpers from the outside, go in and make them fouls, even if you can't score, you can win free throws, and if Prince makes a cameo appearance at the No. 4 position, what are you afraid of against Hamilton? Go in and get close to the basket to shoot! Andris (Biedrins), Ronnie (Turiaf), you all pull out the pick-and-roll, create space for the outside to shoot, and immediately go to the basket after the pick-and-roll to grab the frontcourt rebound, we can win the rebound! ”

In the last quarter, with a 16-point gap, the Warriors had no way back but to give it a go.

The game restarted, the Warriors attacked first, Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball through the half, observing the situation, and sure enough, the Pistons were still three small men on the periphery, and Pulis was in the No. 4 position, ready to continue to speed up.

At the top of the arc, Turyaf covered Iverson, Prince defended out, on the left side, Jackson cut under Biedrins' off-ball cover, Zhou Xuan was not in a hurry to pass the ball, but waited for Jackson to go around to the other side outside the three-second zone, Wallace did not change defense, and then passed the ball.

Wallace was afraid of Bydrings to hit the basket, and if he was out of the box, Jackson could shoot as he pleased, and Bydrin would almost certainly be able to pick up the rebound on Hamilton's head if he was misplaced. This ball is very cleverly passed, Jackson is unguarded, the right side turns around at 45 degrees and shoots, and the cricket ball scores!

71-85, the Warriors' counterattack is coming.
