Chapter 328: Take Down the Warriors
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Warriors brought Curry up again, but unfortunately Thompson didn't play because he played too long, so the Splash Brothers were left with Curry alone.
Also on the field was Nate. Robinson, this is a scary guy, although he is only 175 tall, he has won three slam dunk contests, and more importantly, he also overshadowed Yao Ming!
You must know that Yao Ming's height is 2.26 meters! As for him, he is only 1.75 meters, and from this point of view, you can know how terrifying Robinson's bounce is.
The Rockets' possession, Adelman still didn't dare to be careless after leading the score, and sent Yao Ming and Chandler in the fourth quarter of the game, along with Beverley, Ariza and Maddy.
Beverley advances with the ball, although Beverley is positioned as a defensive player, but under normal circumstances, Adelman is still willing to let him advance with the ball, because it allows Maddy and others to conserve their physical strength.
After the work of the advance was done, Beverley did not hold the ball, and one hit the ball was handed to Maddie, who was asking for the ball on the other side.
After receiving the ball, Maddy began to make a three-threat move in the frame, and Maddie has scored 11 points today, including 3 of 3 three-pointers, so when Maddy made this move outside the three-point line, Curry did not hesitate to post it.
"Hey, little Curry, don't be nervous, you said you stuck to me so close to me, what if I broke through." Maddie said as she leaned over Curry.
As for why Maddie calls Curry Curry Jr., there is actually a reason, many people know that Curry will call Uncle Carter because Curry's father and Carter were teammates, and it can be said that Carter grew up watching Curry.
But at the same time, Maddie actually had teammates with Curry's father, and he had seen Curry when he was a child, but unfortunately Carter and Maddy parted ways later, and Maddie rarely saw Curry since he went to other teams.
"I'm not nervous, okay, Uncle Maddie." Curry said, rolling his eyes.
"I haven't seen you for so long, so you still remember me, this should be our game, no, no, no, no, it should be said that this is the first time we have played against each other since you entered the NBA." Maddie said with a smile.
Curry thought about it carefully and nodded, indeed this is their first matchup, although it has been two years since they entered the league, but during this period, they have never been aligned because of one reason after another.
When the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Maddie also began to look for opportunities to prepare for a breakthrough, but unfortunately Curry stuck very tightly, if this was before, Maddie might have broken through, but now
Forget it, let's pass it out, Maddie didn't prepare to come hard after thinking for a while, and hoisted the ball high to Yao Ming in the low position, and then opened the space and walked to the side to watch.
Yao Ming received the ball, there were 7 seconds left in the time, and it was Dominic who defended him behind him, although there was little time left, but in the face of the short Yao Ming always had his own set of scoring methods.
Turning, breaking, dreamy footsteps, hooking hands, Yao Ming's movements were done in one go, and he easily scored a goal under Dominic's dead marking, this is the advantage of height! If Yao Ming hadn't lost too much weight now, maybe Yao Ming wouldn't have used these actions to complete the layup.

When it was the Warriors' turn to attack, Curry began to organize the offense, but after a few passes of the ball, Curry rolled his eyes, why did this ball come back!
There was no way, Curry had to look at the offensive time and then prepare to go it alone, at this time there were still 12 seconds left, and it was enough to go it alone! Curry began to dribble left and right, leaning on the rhythm and shaking Beverley with a change of direction.
Beverley was not shaken out of the two consecutive directional breakthroughs, and Curry naturally did not find a chance to break through, after all, if he can't shake it, Curry can't always break through because of the injury to his body and right ankle.
In the end, Curry was also suffocated by Beverley, and when there were only three seconds left, Curry simply didn't look for a chance to break through, and directly made a feint to change direction, and then dribbled the ball back to his hand, collected the ball, and shot.
This is a long three points, it can be seen that Curry is still very confident, after all, there are still three seconds, there are still many options at this time, but Curry chose to shoot strongly, which really made Beverley a little confused.
But it doesn't matter if you don't understand, don't you understand it, Curry's three-point shabu-shabu soon spread throughout the audience! Including Beverley, who was wondering, also seemed to understand Curry's expression, is this product so confident that it can enter?

The score is close again, and the Rockets are starting to fire around the inside line, whether it is Chandler or Yao Ming, they have won countless opportunities on the inside, and there are teammates running to block and dismantle, this feeling is simply refreshing!
Half a quarter has passed, the Rockets still stick to their scoring advantage, although the Warriors have relied on Curry to play a lot of good shots, but Curry has always been only one person.
After the regular rotation, Curry also decisively left the game, but something different from what he expected in the summer appeared, and you will use an Ellis substitute when Curry goes down? Where's your Thompson!
You must know that Thompson's play in the third quarter is a big plus for him, and there is no pure shooter among the players! So what are Thompson waiting for?
Do you still want to wait for Nate and wait for Brandon. Is Rush coming to take his seat? It's really a little hard to understand the operation of the Warriors, obviously he still looks up to others Thompson so much in the third quarter, but he doesn't want others to play in the fourth quarter.
Is it because of Thompson's instability? Summer is uncertain, but even if Thompson is inconsistent, it will be much better than Nate, and what kind of lineup will the Warriors use in the last six minutes! Ellis + Nate backcourt combination? Isn't this just here to deliver food? After all, the backcourt combination on the Rockets' side is Lowry + Beverley! One can attack, the other can defend, what can the warriors use to contend with!
Sure enough, the Warriors' lineup is really useless after they get on the court, first of all, Nate and Ellis, the two ball carriers are very alone, but even if they are alone, the offensive shooting rate of the two under Beverley's mad dog-like bite defense is also chilling.
At the end of the game, the Rockets defeated the Warriors 108-98, and it is worth mentioning that the Warriors had scored 93 points when Curry went down, but Ellis led the team to only 5 points in the full half of the game
Maybe the Warriors' top brass really need to think about Ellis, although Ellis is a good player and the cornerstone of the Warriors, but now that they have Curry, maybe they should really make a choice.
Summer got a total of 31 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists in the whole game, but it's a pity that Summer didn't know that his rebounds were two years away from a triple-double, or maybe he would go back to brush up the data at the end of the game.
Don't think that brushing data is a shameful behavior, after all, it is also a skill to brush data, you must know that many people can't brush data if they want to.
On the second morning, the Rockets players got up early and returned to Houston, because the game was too tired, Adelman was not ready to continue training the players, so after arriving in Houston, they also let everyone go back to rest.
But just after Adelman finished announcing it to everyone, Harden came to Summer's side and chopped him with his fingers, and said with a mysterious face, "Hey, Summer!" Why don't we go to a play, I feel like my body is full of fire after a good night's sleep! All night! I was thinking about that woman, her body, her touch all the time, and I felt like I couldn't stand it anymore! ”
Summer also looked at Harden with a sluggish face, my God, what kind of body is Harden! After sitting on a plane for three days after this back-to-back, aren't you tired? I still want to go to the girl! The body is still hot!
In the end, Summer refused to have fun with Harden, but for the safety of Harden's life, Summer finally told Adelman about it, so that Harden was honorably taken away by Adelman.
Looking at the complaining eyes cast by Harden in the distance, summer feels so refreshing! Now I can finally go home and sleep.
