Chapter 110: Three-point feast, god-level sniper!!
Warriors coach Kerr couldn't help frowning, this elevator door double cover tactic is a regular tactic for their Warriors.
The elevator door tactic is known to the public because Mark Jackson coached the Warriors, and he designed an offensive tactic specifically for the Splash Brothers, which formed Curry and Thompson.
Later, after Steve Kerr took over the Warriors. It has been improved again to create a more threatening elevator door, but this tactic is only possible if you have a very strong shooter.
The tactic of the elevator door is actually not complicated, simply put, two big men stand near the center line to make a cover for the shooter who runs out of the penalty area, the tactic is similar to the elevator door closing, so it is colloquially called the elevator door tactic.
Now it's generally Thompson, who runs back and then uses a double screen, either to shoot straight or to break through and finish with a layup.
But today they were turned against them by the Clippers with this tactic, which made Coach Kerr a little annoyed, he shouted at the players on the court, and then made an offensive gesture.
Curry nodded calmly after receiving the command, and then began to advance with the ball.
After the frontcourt, Curry gestured to his teammates, and suddenly several Warriors pulled away directly, and Green began to step forward to block and cooperate with Curry.
Curry took the opportunity to dribble to the side, but instead of using the cover to shoot himself, he made a ground-and-go pass and gave the ball back to Green.
Green took the ball at the top of the arc, made a pass feint, then pulled the ball back and kicked it with both feet, pulling it up for a three-point shot.
"Whew!!"
6:6。
Green's three-pointer also scored, and the Warriors felt too smooth today.
Seeing that even Green had made a three-point shot, Rivers in front of the Clippers bench couldn't help frowning, and what he was most afraid of was the Warriors' three-point shot.
Everyone in the Warriors' lineup can shoot three-pointers, Green and Iguodala are a little closer, but they both have a certain accuracy, and there are too many offensive points, which makes it difficult for you to defend, and if you defend this, you will often miss the other one next to you.
Rivers thought about it for a moment and didn't call a timeout, but just gave Li Yang a three-point gesture to add the Clippers' outside offense.
If the Clippers can't shoot the three-pointers, then if the opponent's three-point play is stable, even if they play well, the score will gradually open up in the long run.
This is also a key factor in the loss of many teams to the Warriors, who ushered in the era of small ball.
The Clippers attack.
Beverley advanced to the front court with the ball, and Li Yang received the ball outside the three-point line and began to break through, and then passed back to Beverley on the weak side.
Beverley didn't have a good shot and quickly passed to Gallinari.
Gallinari made a shooting feint, and the opponent was not fooled, and he was not sure of the single, so he directly closed the ball.
At this time, Li Yang ran over quickly, passed by Gallinari, got the basketball with his hand, took a step to the right, and shot directly.
It's also a three-pointer, and it's a hollow hit.
This ball is already the fifth three-pointer shot by both sides today, and the game has only been played for two minutes, which is really worthy of a real three-point matchup.
The fans in the audience were a little surprised, and then immediately began to get excited, as soon as they started with such a fierce three-point shot, and the efficiency was so high, both teams are currently 100 shots, worthy of an epic three-point duel!!
“GS!! GS!! ”
"Stephen, one more."
"Klay, shoot three!!"
"Kevin, pull one up!!"
Only two minutes were played in the first quarter, the score of the two teams was 9-6, and the scoring efficiency of both sides was high, and the Clippers temporarily led by 2 points.
Although the Warriors are only 2 points behind, the Warriors fans at home still find it difficult to accept, especially the three-point shot, which they are usually most proud of, has also fallen into the disadvantage, even if it is only temporarily behind, they can't tolerate it.
The home fans began to shout loudly and cheer for the Warriors in the hope that the team could catch up quickly, preferably with another tough three-point answer-ball to overtake the score in one fell swoop.
Curry began to advance with the ball, and after halftime, he quickly passed the ball to Durant, the Grim Reaper.
It's almost the same tactic as before, but the difference is that after Curry passes the ball, he directly starts to slip from one side of the line.
Then he ran out and under the cover of a brother, he didn't pass the ball again after receiving the basketball, but made a shooting feint, and then dribbled to the side, raising his hand to make a quick three-pointer.
"Whew!!"
Three-point hollow into the net.
At 9:9, the two teams were tied.
Beverley spread his hands, turned to look at Li Yang, and then smiled helplessly at Li Yang, he had obviously tried his best to defend this time.
But everyone knows how perverted and accurate Curry's three-point is, and he was simply shaken by Curry, but Beverley didn't dare not jump, because the other party's sense of déjà vu with his hands open was shrouded in his mind.
And after losing position, he jumped as much as he could to interfere, but he was still thrown in by Curry with the arc up, which can't be blamed on him.
"Patrick, it's okay, it's just one ball, he can't be so perverted and accurate the whole game!!" Li Yang shook his head, comforted Beverly, and then signaled that he could start the attack.
In the opening game, a series of dazzling offense and defense, the shooting rate of both sides was frighteningly high, and the three-point shooting rate was also ridiculously accurate.
However, after Curry threw this three-point shot, the shooting rates of both sides began to decline, and it was not the norm just now, and it couldn't be so accurate all the time, otherwise the strength of the two teams would be too terrifying, and the hand felt so hot that it exploded.
A few minutes passed, and although the shooting percentages of both sides had dropped, the score began to rise alternately.
In general, the two teams have not changed much in terms of tactics, they are still fighting against Biao for three points, and the tip of the needle is against Maimang, directly staging a popular three-point duel feast for the fans on the scene.
In the last two minutes of the first quarter, Li Yang hit a step-back three-point shot to turn the score into 28:27, and the Clippers once again overtook the score.
And Li Yang's three-point shot was also the eleventh three-pointer shot by both sides in the first quarter, and the two sides scored 33 points on the three-pointer alone, accounting for half of the scores in the first quarter.
In other words, at least half of each team's points are scored by three points!!
"Tut-tut, it's really fun to watch, it's only the first quarter, and the two sides have shot a total of 11 three-pointers, don't be so reckless!!" A Warriors fan couldn't help but exclaim.
"An epic three-point offensive feast, it's really exciting, I really hope that the feeling of both sides can continue later!!"
Another fan said, "I don't know how many three-pointers Curry can make in this game, the count is already in place!" ”
"10?? Or 12?? ”
"I think it's probably more than that, it's an opponent today, Stephen is definitely in better shape, maybe the only one who can stop him from shooting three points is Coach Steve!!"
"Cowardly!! I think Yang's performance today is also good, even if he can't compare with Stephen, he won't be much inferior, anyway, I'm optimistic about him!! ”
The fans in the audience were talking and disagreeing.
On the court, with Li Yang's three-point shot, Warriors coach Kerr decisively called a timeout.
Rivers swapped Li Yang for a break, replaced him with reeds, and continued to keep the team's offensive firepower up.
On the Warriors' side, they also replaced Curry with a little Cook.
Although the game was played for less than one quarter, the coaches of both sides knew that it was bound to be a tight game.
Both teams are teams that play fast offensive and defensive transitions, and they will definitely be running non-stop on the field, and the physical consumption of the players will be very high, so they must rotate the main players in time to reserve energy for the rest of the game.
Next, Harris, Gallinari and others were also replaced one after another.
At the end of the first quarter, the two teams battled to 31:29.
