Nelson Sr. asked CJ Watson to speed up the offensive tempo and play quick counter-attacks after calling a timeout. But apart from Azubuke and Watson, everyone else was dumbfounded, and the Warriors trailed by 17 points at 21-38 in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the two sides sent substitutes, Madi? Collins and J.R. Smith are a pair of enemies, and they had a PK that year, and this time the enemy met each other, and they were very angry.

JR Smith didn't have a good hand in the last time he played the Warriors, and he sleepwalked throughout the game, and he broke out as soon as he came up today.

Smith hit two unreasonable three-pointers in a row, a fast-break windmill dunk, and assisted Kreiza to hit a jumper after breaking through, leading the Nuggets to a 10-0 attack wave, widening the gap to 27 points. When Carl chatted with him, he said that Zhou Xuan was the core, but he actually discovered the weakness of the Warriors.

has just entered the league, if he can easily break the bag, Zhou Xuan is too good, and his experience is obviously not comparable to old players like Margetty and Jackson.

Nelson Sr. didn't call a timeout either, so he let the bench play, and Azubuuk and Morrow were also replaced. He has already seen that he can't win this game, and he just wants to practice new tactics.

After 6 minutes of the official timeout, the Warriors were still 27 points behind, and the home fans were excited, and it was somewhat unexpected that the games in the 2nd and 3rd places in the West were played like this.

Old Nelson sent Zhou Xuan, Randolph and others, who were the starting lineups at the beginning, and said to his disciples: "Zhou, control the rhythm and play positional battles, observe the position, drop the ball to Zach (Randolph), Zach should be resolute in the low single Nene or Martin, if you attract the bag, pass the ball to the perimeter, pay attention to the position of your teammates, Anthony (Moreau) is in the bottom corner, and Zhou is on the left side." Corunna (Azubuuk) was on the right and cut open with Andris (Biedrins) without the ball at any time. ”

If Zhou Xuan controls the ball and sees his teammates cutting in the air, he can play a beautiful pass and cut coordination, so the task of hanging the ball falls on his shoulders. At this time, he must also be resolute in receiving the ball on the periphery.

On the live broadcast, Barkley had already begun to shout boredom. "The Warriors played so badly in this game that it would be very disappointing if it ended like this, and I think halftime would go into garbage time."

Smith also felt that the game was out of suspense. "When Jackson, Margety, and Ellis come back, I am optimistic that the Warriors can play against the Nuggets, and now the strength is much worse. Now that the main forces are back, it depends on whether Zhou Xuan can find a rhythm. ”

Zhou Xuan organized the ball in possession, and the defender became JR Smith. This is also the arrangement of the Nuggets, once the Warriors can't shoot, they will take the rebound and counterattack will form a dislocation, and it will be very difficult for Zhou Xuan to defend Smith.

However, compared to the offense, Smith's defense is not very good, he mainly relies on physique, and the defensive awareness is poor. Zhou Xuan made a feint to shake out a little space and hoisted the ball into the low position on the left side. Nene and Randolph had a fierce confrontation, Randolph received the ball far away, turned around and changed to a face frame, and suddenly started to break through to the bottom line, and after Nene moved, he retreated and changed to pull back, and made a jump shot. Randolph's technique was very good, but Nene moved quickly, jumped forward to interfere, Randolph didn't feel very good today, the shot was off, and Krezza won the rebound on the other side.

Now the Nuggets lineup has changed, Martin is resting, Anthony is in the No. 4 position, as soon as the rebound is won, Smith immediately starts to run to the basket, Kreiza throws a long pass to the frontcourt, Zhou Xuan is very fast to defend, but the ball is passed very high, he can't stop it at all, Smith jumped up and won the basketball, and quickly turned around by Zhou Xuan. THE 198CM HEIGHT CAN PLAY CENTER IN CHINESE SCHOOLS, AND ALTHOUGH ZHOU XUAN'S STRENGTH HAS IMPROVED, IT IS STILL WORSE THAN BLACK PLAYERS LIKE SMITH, AND HE WAS RESISTED.

After turning around, Smith jumped high and scored with a one-handed smash. 30 to 59.

Smith was very faceless, clenching his fists and roaring when he returned to defense, and this offense was eighty percent of the best shots.

Barkley had a sense of schadenfreude and said with a smile: "Zhou Xuan will definitely suffer some blows today, and every player in the Nuggets has played very well." ”

Smith said: "But he hasn't lost his cool yet, his face is still expressionless, it's really rare for a rookie to be so unfazed." ”

Zhou Xuan forced himself to calm down, at this time he had three choices, one is to continue to drop the ball to Randolph, wait for opportunities on the periphery, in case he doesn't score, he can't get the rebound for fear that he will be misplaced again, Azubuike is defending Anthony, and Morrow can't quickly return to defense on the bottom line, Smith can only hand it over to him.

The second option is for him to attack on his own, relying on blocking and dismantling to play Creza, the European player is not physically bad, but the defense is definitely inferior to Martin, and the Nuggets may also continue to wrap up.

The third option is simpler, and that is to let his teammates pull away, and he directly singles Smith. According to the information given by the scouts, Smith's defensive ability is not too strong and he is prone to shake up. This kind of play violates the tactics of old Nelson, but it is what he wants to do, otherwise he will feed Randolph the ball throughout the game, and Randolph will play Nene, even if the shooting rate is 50%, the remaining half will not score, and people will have to chase and fight back.

Thinking about all this, Zhou Xuan still chose to lead to the left, posing as if he was ready to pass, and his eyes also looked at Randolph on the inside.

Smith kept a distance of one step and thought: pass, how many points can Randolph score in a single Nene? Prevent everyone else from dying, and we will definitely win this time.

George? Karl's tactics are very clear, that is, one defense and one defense, only when Zhou Xuan blocks and breaks through, he is a trap, so he can't break through. This is really very worthy of Zhou Xuan, because each team did this when defending James, one person was close, one person blocked the breakthrough, and resolutely did not let James break through the ball.

Smith thought that Zhou Xuan was going to pass the ball, and he was relaxed and did not interfere hard, but Zhou Xuan didn't pass, and suddenly pulled out a three-point shot. The ball was so sudden that Smith didn't expect it to be too late to reach out and jump the block.

Zhou Xuan rarely pulls on the side, expecting that Smith may desert, this shot is very comfortable, and it goes in! 33 to 59.

"Sudden cold arrow shooting three-point, isn't this the style of play that Chauncey is good at? However, Changxi has not easily pulled out in front of Zhou Xuan today. Barkley laughed.

"This offensive style can't be used as a regular means, and the rest of the Warriors need to open up the situation before they can catch up with the score." Smith said.

Nuggets attacked, Billups took half of the court to Anthony, his statistics today are not very good, but he always knows that he passed the ball to the person who grasped the most, Anthony played more easily today, and Azubuke couldn't prevent him. The dribble shook and Anthony passed to Smith in the run. The latter received the ball without pausing, and directly started to rely on his speed to pass Moreau and burst into the basket, Randolph let go of Nene to change defense, Smith passed the ball to Nene with one hand on the run, and the latter scored with an open jumper. 33 to 61.

For Smith, offense is the best defense, and that's his credo, and he's the Nuggets' most active guy this quarter.

Zhou Xuan brought the ball to the frontcourt, and the defender was still Smith. This time, Smith cheered up and vowed not to let Zhou Xuan shoot easily again.

Zhou Xuan still took it to the left, which was similar to the previous two choices. Smith stepped back and followed, his center of gravity dropping low. Zhou Xuan gently probed his left shoulder and missed a flaw, and Smith reflexively rushed forward, wanting to be close to him so that he couldn't pass the ball. Zhou Xuan didn't want to pass the ball, dribbled the ball under his crotch to his right hand, flashed past Smith with a cross step, entered the three-point line from the middle, and took the ball at the free throw line to make an emergency stop.

Smith participated in the slam dunk contest, his quality was great, and after eating, he chased up from behind and jumped up to block it, but Zhou Xuan just raised the ball and shook it, and Smith flew in front of him.

No one came up to make up for the defense, Zhou Xuan was calm, and said to himself that this was just a practice match, and no one would defend again, his body jumped up lightly with a relaxed body, and he shot in one go, and the ball was hollow into the net. 35 to 61.

Zhou Xuan didn't play according to the tactics, but the old Nelson was not angry, but a little happy, because Zhou Xuan made adjustments according to the situation on the court, and dared to take responsibility, if he encountered the opponent's strict defense, he would not dare to play, only handed over to his teammates, and he could only be a decent point guard in his life, and there would not be a too high ceiling, obviously he was not.

Anthony misses a jumper and the rebound is picked up by Randolph.

Zhou Xuan received the ball and dribbled through the half-court battle and brought it to the left. Smith felt that if he was beaten again, he would be too faceless, and his defense was much more active. This time Zhou Xuan passed the ball to Randolph.

When Smith saw him passing, he wanted to complain and sarcastically, "What did you pass for?" As soon as his mouth opened, Zhou Xuan suddenly started to run in the direction of Randolph.

When Randolph saw him running over, he almost handed the ball over by hand, Nene defended behind him, his vision was blocked, and he couldn't retreat immediately, Zhou Xuan slipped the bottom line and burst into the basket. When Nene found that he had the ball in his hand and then turned around to block it, Zhou Xuan had already completed the attack, he barely jumped, his shot was fast, and he scored a backhand basketball. 37 to 61.

Barkley shouted: "Beautiful, Zhou Xuan scored 7 points in a row, leading by a big score, Smith's defense was a little lax, probably he didn't expect Zhou Xuan to play so resolutely." ”

"JR's face is not very good-looking, maybe I want to return one." Smith laughed.

Billups saw his teammate's intentions and passed the ball to Smith. In the face of Morrow, the best way to break through is to break through, but Smith didn't want to be so troublesome, and took advantage of his hot hand to pull out a three-point shot. Morrow wasn't shorter than him, and the jump jam worked, the ball was deflected and the rebound was picked up by Biedrins.

Zhou Xuan, who had stabilized the rhythm several times before, suddenly threw the ball to the front court with one hand, it turned out that Anthony just wanted to catch the ball and play a misplaced single, ran to a low position and squeezed away Azubuk, but Smith didn't pass, he was a little dissatisfied with the ball, and shouted at Smith, and did not immediately return to defense, just like that, Azubuk started to rush through the half, Zhou Xuan's pass was very timely, Azubuk received the ball and no one defended, and scored the ball with one hand. 39 to 61.

The Warriors had a scoring spree after a timeout, and they weren't going to give up yet!
