Chapter 429 [A ball from the west, flying immortals outside the sky!] 】
Seeing Zhou Xuan being whistled for a foul, Su Qun was furious and said loudly: "Crawford just wants to help the Thunder win, Durant got two more free throws, he alone has more free throws than the entire Warriors team, and the opponent doesn't even touch him!" If the Thunder win because of these two free throws, I believe the fans will not be satisfied. ”
Yang Jian said: "The big screen on the court gave a replay, which happened to hit the ball, very clean defense, and Durant was stunned when he heard the referee blow the whistle." ”
Although such a win is not honorable, Durant can't deliberately miss the free throw. Today he shot as high a free throw percentage as ever, hitting both free throws to make it 106-107.
The Warriors called a timeout, and Durant didn't look happy when he came off the court, and it was the referee who saved the Thunder. After seeing the replay of the camera, the home fans were also much quieter, and they had to sell cheaply.
Crawford didn't blow the penalty unscrupulously, Smart vented his frustration on the sidelines, and he didn't give another technical foul, otherwise he would not be far from a suspension. Watching the replay was obviously a good tackle, and he wasn't going to admit his mistake.
Zhou Xuan didn't complain, and immediately began to think about how to better complete the next attack, only in this way can he get the opponent, and it is a waste of time to find the theoretical value of the referee.
Smart also knew this, and said to the grumbling players: "Forget the ball just now, we haven't lost yet, cheer up, we have to organize a quick attack, Zhou controlled the ball, Corey and Blair pulled to the perimeter to cover, Munta cut from the side......"
In the last attack, Smart decided to replace Azubuke and replace Ellis. The Thunder only have a one-point lead, and that's when they need players who can rush inside and play to the basket more efficiently.
Also, Ellis is not bothered by fouls, and if he doesn't score, he will be fouled immediately, and he can have an offensive opportunity. Zhou Xuan has already committed five fouls and can't foul again.
Smart didn't have much time to arrange tactics, let Zhou Xuan control the ball, Ellis cut in the air, and Green, who had a good hand, also continued to stay on the court, and Blair and Margeti were responsible for blocking and dismantling. Zhou Xuan can attack by himself or pass the ball.
At this time, Zhou Xuan was thinking about what Thunder's weakness was. He had a hunch that the Thunder would not make substitutions, the athleticism of all five people was great, and the interior line was not a good breakthrough.
Which tactic is the least likely to be thought of and can guarantee a hit rate? Zhou Xuan thinks that it is not a layup, but a dunk. And 16. With 8 seconds, you can completely stabilize and there is no need to make a risky pass. All teams will also choose to stabilize at this time. What if it goes straight to the basket? Can Thunder think of it?
Zhou Xuan said to Smart: "Coach, I have a different opinion. ”
"What?" Smart didn't expect Zhou Xuan to talk to him about tactics at the critical moment.
'As long as this goal is scored, we will win 80% and they have no timeout. I want to ......"
After Zhou Xuan finished speaking, everyone, including Smart, was stunned when they heard it.
"Are you sure they didn't pause?"
"I remember it very clearly."
Smart thought to herself, what kind of brain are you? What kind of thing can you pay attention to in the game, he, the coach, doesn't know what to do. He thought about it for a while, and said: "Just play according to the tactics Zhou said, block and dismantle!" ”
The players on both sides stood in a row, Zhou Xuan was responsible for serving in the middle line, and Blair and Margeti covered Ellis together, attracting the attention of the Thunder's tall players. Green suddenly pulled out of the middle and cut inside.
In order to increase the speed, the Thunder also only played one big man in Ibaka, and he pounced on Ellis after covering, Jeff? Green is more of a small forward and doesn't have the awareness to protect the interior.
Gerard Green took a big step and jumped to his feet with the basket in front of him.
Zhou Xuan's ball also passed out and flew quickly to the basket. This was almost the first time Green jumped up, and then Zhou Xuan threw the ball into his hand. If it was last season, Zhou Xuan would never have been able to pass this kind of ball, during the holidays, Green and Zhou Xuan often played like this, and the two of them had practiced!
A ball from the west, flying immortals outside the sky!
Green leaned sideways to catch the basketball with both hands, tensed his body into a bow in the air, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand with his right hand! 108 to 107.
Su Qun shouted, "Beautiful! The Warriors didn't seek stability and played an amazing combination, and the best goal of the game came at a crucial moment! They overtook the score! ”
Yang Jian shouted: "I didn't retreat after the goal, the front court was pressing!" ”
Goal-scoring Steven Gerrard? Green didn't put POSS either, he said it was okay off the court, and immediately pressed it.
As soon as the throw-in was issued, Green went close to Westbrook, and Westbrook received the ball and was close to him.
At this time, Coach Brooks didn't have time to be shocked by the one-second goal just now, and realized that he had made another mistake, and he replaced Harden. He thinks Seferrosa is more defensive, and Durant will attack with the ball, and only needs to pull away from the outside and prepare to shoot threes. But in this way, Westbrook is left with a point on the field that can organize with the ball, and there is no substitution.
Westbrook dribbled the ball under his crotch to avoid Green, bumped into Ellis again, and the pass was blocked, and he hurriedly took it back. He had good dribbling skills and didn't get cut off, but he was also forced into a corner.
Sephorosa retreated to answer, Westbrook hurriedly passed the ball, but did not observe the surrounding situation, and Zhou Xuan also came up to press.
Sephorosa was close to Zhou Xuan, holding the ball and making a pause gesture, wanting to ask for a timeout, but no matter how dark the referee was, he couldn't give them more than one timeout. Zhou Xuan took the opportunity to stab the basketball with his left hand, and this slight stab turned into a steal and an assist. Ellis was the first to pick up the basketball and scored on a layup. 110 to 107.
Half of the Thunder fans collapsed, and in just a few seconds, the home team went from leading by one point to falling behind by three points.
Brooks was frozen on the sidelines, knowing that it was too late to apply for a trade for Harden or Livingston.
"Zhou Xuan sent two assists and a steal at the last moment, and the Thunder messed up just now, why didn't he call a timeout?" Yang Jian shouted.
Su Qun smiled: "I think they probably didn't take a timeout, Brooks adjusted too much in the early stage, paid the price, the Warriors played an amazing reversal, and Crawford didn't blow another foul with this steal just now." If he still dares to blow it, the Warriors players are afraid that they will boycott the game! ”
The baseline ball was sent out to the frontcourt, Durant received the ball and turned to face Gerrard? Green, a one-step jumper from beyond the three-point line. He made 3-of-6 three-pointers today, but missed for the seventh time.
Blair played under the basket, blocked Ibaka behind him, and grabbed the rebound in the backcourt. Ibaka had no choice but to foul and Blair went to the free-throw line.
Su Qun said: "Blair also made poor free throws, shooting only 54. 7%, look at his two free throws, the first one missed ......"
Blair slapped the ball three times on the second penalty and took aim for a while before taking a shot and making it. 111 to 107.
This free throw cost the Thunder, 9. 3 seconds is no longer enough. Durant was guarded after getting to the frontcourt, Jeff? Green pulls a three-pointer from the perimeter. Zhou Xuan rushed inside and grabbed a backcourt rebound.
As soon as he got the ball, several people on the Thunder court suddenly felt cold in their hearts, and they didn't bother to go up to foul, it was just a point.
Zhou Xuan will not fail to lock up the victory and go to brush up the score, control the ball and wait quietly for the time to run out.
Su Qun said: "Although the situation was very unfavorable and three were sent off, the Warriors still won the game. Westbrook looked annoyed. ”
Yang Jian said: "Zhou Xuan had 14 points, 5 rebounds, 17 assists and 4 steals, of which 7 assists came in the fourth quarter. Sometimes you really don't have to score high points to dominate the game, and that's the difference between him and Westbrook. ”
Su Qun smiled: "I think he still has hope to win the assist king for a second time, as long as he plays enough time, his assists will definitely be double-doubled." ”
Westbrook shook hands with Zhou Xuan and sighed, "This time you won." ”
"You're not bad either." Zhou Xuan added in his heart, Xie Lu, thank you for your wave shot, if Durant shoots more, I'm afraid he won't be able to hit the most rear.
At the press conference, Smart did not complain about the referee, but only implicitly said: "It was a tough game, the players were very careful, but they still got into foul trouble, but fortunately we had the last laugh." ”
If it was Nelson Sr., he might have to run and bomb the referee for injustice, Smart is more sensible, he doesn't have that much money to pay the fine.
In general, there is still a lot of freedom of speech in the NBA, you can say that so-and-so player plays dirty, that so-and-so team has a rough style, and you can even name a player or coach who is a fool, and the only thing that can't be said is the referee.
After all, the referee is a "person from the yamen", representing the fairness and authority of the alliance, of course, you can say it, provided that you have to pay money.
Every year in the playoffs, there are head coaches who pay for this, such as Celtics coach Docs Rivers last season, Nuggets coach George? Karl and Trail Blazers coach McMillan. The price is not low, $25,000 for a paragraph.
The reporter asked Zhou Xuan: "That key offense, the Warriors have plenty of time, why would you choose to throw the ball directly to the basket?" The coach said it was your idea. ”
Smart is too real, that tactic was proposed by Zhou Xuan, and he didn't want to be greedy.
Zhou Xuan smiled: "It's very simple, because I know that no one thinks that I will pass the ball directly to the basket." Since this is a tactic that is not easy to guess, there is naturally a high chance of success, even if we don't score, we can also adopt foul tactics, foul people under the basket, and the shooting percentage should always be lower than Durant, right? He almost killed us with free throws. ”
In addition to answering reporters' questions and expressing their thoughts, these words also implicitly expressed their dissatisfaction. Look at this dude's free throw count. Bullies don't bring this! From beginning to end, he didn't say anything bad about the dead bald head, let alone the word "referee".
However, Zhou Xuan's mood is not better, after the lack of Randolph, it has become difficult for the Warriors to win, and now their positional battle is average, and only running can play the strongest power.
