Costeve. Kerr always thought that the Warriors were stable in this game, after all, the team's five superstars performed as well as the last game.

He fantasized about leading the team to a 2-0 comeback to win the championship and give Henson a big gift in his final season.

But with a 12-point advantage heading into the fourth quarter, Steve Brown. Cole was nervous. Because of the lineup that worried him day and night, it was finally replaced by Henson. Joe brought it to the court.

"The ultimate lineup! In Game 4 of the series, Coach Henson was finally willing to take out his killer feature! ”

Also worried about Cole is Kevin. Harlan, when Henson fielded his strongest lineup, chasing 12 points in a single quarter may not be difficult at all.

After the Warriors have made a big move, Henson is also going to make a real move. He didn't want to lose the game just like that, he was determined to win the fourth game! ”

Mike. Brin smiled, the next quarter of the game is sure to be very exciting. Because if Henson gave up his resistance, he wouldn't have put the ultimate lineup out at this time.

There's only one reason Henson did this – he's going to do everything he can to win the fourth game and then lift the trophy at home!

Henson did say that a 4-0 sweep of the Warriors was almost a fantasy. But he also said that a 4-1 win over the Warriors is not impossible!

"Don't be nervous, it's been a long time since they've played together. Be patient and take advantage of the opportunity for the opponent to make a mistake and fight back! We have a 12-point advantage and we can hold on to the end! ”

Before the game began, Kerr raised his arms and yelled from the sidelines. He told the players not to be nervous, but in fact he was reminding himself not to be nervous.

However, in the first attack after the start of the fourth quarter, Henson's ultimate lineup played a tacit match.

Antetokounmpo organized possession, while the other four forwards actively ran off the ball. Standing outside the three-point line, the Greek tried to pass the ball to George, but at the last minute, he flicked his wrist and sent the basketball inside.

In the paint district, Kyle. Kuzma has quietly cut in. Antetokounmpo's ball was hoisted just right, and Kuzma was able to hit the frame directly after receiving it!

In this way, Kuzma easily got rid of Iguodala and scored a layup.

"A beautiful cut, Antetokounmpo's ability to play in the high position is unquestionable. He gave Kuzma an easy chance to score, and both of them had the timing of the start and the timing of the pass to score in seconds! ”

Kerr thought the ultimate lineup lacked chemistry, but Henson actually spent the entire season honing the lineup on the training ground. When they play, they must be prepared.

Kerr looked up at the big screen and at 10 points, the gap between him and the Pacers was only 10 points. At this juncture, his team must hold steady on the attack.

"Attack the inside, attack the inside!" Kerr yelled that he didn't dare risk his team from beyond the three-point line, that he needed to score efficiently, that he needed to make a kill. As long as he can stabilize the point difference, he doesn't care where the players score.

So, Curry handed over to Cousins, who was outside the three-point line after halftime.

Cousins' mission this time was not to cover, and after receiving the basketball from outside the three-point line, he directly activated the breakaway!

In the last game and the first three quarters of this game, Cousins used the breakthrough trick to get mixed up. Brooke. Lopez's ability to move, even in front of an injured Cousins, is still too slow.

But this time, it was Antetokounmpo who defended Cousins! When it comes to speed and confrontation, Antetokounmpo is not afraid of Cousins!

"Cousins beats Antetokounmpo, what will happen to him!?"

It didn't end well, as Antetokounmpo ended the Warriors' offense with a block.

After Cousins forced a shot to the basket, Antetokounmpo bravely jumped to his feet and slapped his long arm just into the basketball that Cousins shot.

DeMarcus. Cousins' impact, neutralized by Antetokounmpo!

"The defensive ability of the Ultimate squad is terrifying! Either way, the Warriors couldn't find much of an advantage. Countered back, and the Pacers fought back quickly. Fortunately, the Warriors also retreated aggressively enough, otherwise the Pacers would have taken scoring lightly. ”

The fourth quarter had only been played for two rounds, and the excitement of the game was already very different from before.

After falling into a positional battle, Siakam, who was holding the ball and pushing quickly, regave the ball to Antetokounmpo and continued the attack with the Greeks organizing.

As soon as Henson made a gesture, George, who was defended by Curry, quickly ran back and cut to the basket again.

Antetokounmpo didn't even dribble the ball, and just threw the basketball lightly inside. Near the basket, George calculated the right time to jump high, catch the basketball in the air, and smashed the ball directly into the basket without waiting for it to land!

The air relay from Antetokounmpo and Paulo. George's Wiring. And Stephen. Curry doesn't do anything about this kind of ball.

"With 8 points, the Pacers have narrowed the gap to double digits! Curry can't do anything about this kind of high-altitude ball, and the Warriors' defense is always at odds with the ultimate lineup. ”

The point difference became single digits, and Cole panicked even more. He knew very well that Curry was not to blame for that shot just now. Because that kind of ball defense is beyond Curry's ability.

But what's even more terrifying is that this kind of offense that is beyond the Warriors' defensive ability, the Pacers have to play many times!

"Three-point, three-point, take a three!" Curry was in possession while raising his hand in command and now had to use a three-pointer to stabilize the situation.

But the infinite change of defense of the ultimate lineup is something that the Warriors can easily crack.

Thompson and Cousins made a double screen for Curry, and two consecutive layers of cover were enough to make even the best defenders unable to move an inch.

This is the usual tactic of the Warriors, and in order to create a chance for Curry, double screens are nothing at all.

Henson is well aware that in the face of this kind of pick-and-roll, it is almost impossible to complete a 1-on-1 defense on the defensive end.

But he is not worried, the ability of this lineup to change defenses infinitely is extremely powerful!

Seeing that the double cover was in place, Antetokounmpo rushed directly at Curry. The point of changing the defense is to be decisive, and if the change is not decisive enough, the opponent will seize the opportunity to punish the defense.

So when Curry received the ball and was about to shoot, a black "tower" suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Janis. Antetokounmpo, his change is very good. Curry hesitated, and instead of making a shot, he passed the ball to Cousins, who was sitting in the box. Now it's George defending Cousins, and this mismatch is not easy to play! ”

That's right, this misalignment is not easy to fight. Cousins, who had just returned from injury, couldn't beat George by brute force, and he just wanted to turn his back, but George cut the basketball away first.

Don't forget, Cousins is up against a striker who has been selected for the best defensive team.

Seal Curry first, then cut Cousins. The Warriors' two-block pick-and-roll didn't form a misalignment, while the Pacers did a true infinite switch.

For them, there is no misalignment on the defensive end!

There are mistakes in steals, and mistakes breed fast breaks.

George cut the basketball and launched a long pass directly to the backcourt, and Siakam, who was running at the front, caught the ball steadily, and then dunked with both hands, making Oracle Arena suddenly become deadly.

"There are only six points left, Steve. Coach Cole took a timeout of the game. It can be seen that he is very cautious, and he has tried to be great at the ultimate lineup. So today, Cole didn't dare to take risks! ”

Led by 12 points, Steve. Kerr was beaten to a draw, but Henson wasn't smug. He told the players to play more variety on the offensive end and not let others find a way to defend the lineup.

"The Warriors thought they had won, but that was just wishful thinking. Let's conquer here and go home for a cup! ”

Henson's words stirred up the emotions of all the players, and the effect of this sentence may be better than the morale badge.

Henson isn't worried about the players getting too excited right now, he just needs the players to get excited. Pull the situation back in one go, and the Warriors are done.

The final minutes of the fourth quarter were as scorching as ever, with both sides attacking and defending. But 1 minute and 32 seconds before the end of the game, Antetokounmpo's 2+1 layup still helped the Pacers equalize.

At this point, the Warriors have been suppressed by the ultimate lineup's devastating offense. They defensively are perfect, they are all-round in attack, they don't misplace, they don't miss people.

Perfect, well, there is only one word for perfect.

How can we win against a perfect squad? The entire Warriors team was immersed in such contemplation.

Durant wants to go it all the way, and he's the only player the Warriors won't lose when they face the ultimate lineup. So this time, the humble Durant began to take the initiative to ask Curry for the ball.

Die or live, crush Henson or become a stepping stone for Henson.

Durant received the basketball and was ready to turn on his "Grim Reaper Mode".
