606: Who did the three points kill?
Does Antetoquint shoot three-pointers? In the regular season this season, he averaged 23 three-pointers per game, hitting 06 of them, shooting just 272 from the field. *Dream* Small* said .com there's no doubt that his three-point shooting percentage is not very good. James can shoot an average of 363 three-pointers per game, isn't it often emptied by people?
As a result, Antetokounmpo is not valued by Warriors players outside the three-point line at all. In Kerr's opinion, how many more can Antetokounmpo score for a three-pointer like the one just now?
From another point of view, Antetokounmpo's ability to score a three-pointer shows that he has been cornered.
With this mentality, Steve Cole still sat comfortably on the bench. An outdated coach who has been away from the basketball court for two years wants to shake the Warriors' dominance? Stop dreaming!
In the Warriors' offensive round, Curry and Thompson's off-ball runs were still superb, but they found themselves having a harder time trying to get rid of the opposing position.
Antetokounmpo's three points just now are undoubtedly very morale-boosting.
Seeing that the two guards had no chance, Green passed the ball to Durant. In the absence of a chance, Durant's ball-handling singles are the most stable in the Warriors.
This time, George stared Durant to death. He knows he's just three points away from tying the scoreline. If you can defend this goal, then you have a chance to equalize the score in the next round.
As the top name of the Pacers, he doesn't want his team's goal chase plan to be delayed because of his defense.
As a result, the defensive intensity of the Pacers has increased so "inexplicably". Durant's breakthrough layup was blocked by George, and this time, the Warriors couldn't make it!
George gritted his teeth and grabbed the rebound, then sent the ball to Paul. Defensively, he's already expended a lot of energy. For the next offense, it's time for Antetokounmpo!
Draymond Green ran desperately into the box, remembering Kerr's tactics, so he jammed Antetokounmpo at the top of the arc of the reasonable collision zone, and waited there for him to come to the door.
In the last game, this is how he defended Antetokounmpo from fire.
But this time, when Green was in position in the box, he found Antetokounmpo once again stopped outside the three-point line! And Paul, who advanced with the ball, did not hesitate to send the ball to Antetokounmpo.
Once again, Antetokounmpo got an open three-point shot while the Warriors' defense still ignored it! Will Antetokounmpo be able to take his chances this time!? ”
Green didn't have the slightest intention of stepping forward to interfere with the shot, and he recognized that Antetokounmpo would definitely break through.
But just like in the previous round, Antetokounmpo was extremely decisive in his shot. Green reflexively stuck in position to protect the rebound, but it turned out that the rebound didn't need protection at all. Because of the three points thrown by Antetokounmpo, the second hollow into the net!
"It's in again! With their second straight three-pointer, the Pacers tied the score! Yannis Antetokounmpo, this guy is really amazing! We don't know whether to call him lucky or to say he's amazing! ”
Vicky's eyes widened, scoring one goal can be said to be lucky, but scoring two in a row is not so simple as luck.
Generally speaking, no matter how good a coach is, no matter how many tricks he has, there is one thing they can't do, and that is to change a player's ability overnight.
There's no way Phil Jackson can get O'Neal to shoot free throws overnight, and there's no way Vicky can make Duncan a dunk overnight.
But Henson did, and overnight, Antetokounmpo's three-point shooting seemed to be a lot more consistent. While Antetokounmpo occasionally had good three-point shots during the regular season, it was completely unknown whether he would be able to make a three-pointer that day.
Kevic remembers that Henson said before the game started that he would let Antetokounmpo shoot a three-pointer. In other words, this guy knew that Antetokounmpo could throw!
Vicky was not a superstitious man, but today he had to wonder if Henson might be practicing some kind of Eastern witchcraft.
"Damn, good luck" Cole pouted, not expecting the score to be equalized.
He still chalked Antetokounmpo's goal to luck, but it didn't take long for Kerr to know how wrong he was.
After the draw, Henson has already begun to call the rotation players to the technical table to prepare. Kerr is also hoping that the team can take the lead before the game goes into rotation time.
Curry didn't disappoint Kerr, and his successive counter-runs combined with tacit pick-and-rolls with his teammates caught the aging Paul off guard.
In fact, Paul's defense is already very strong, and the space he gives Curry is already very small. This kind of defense is completely enough for the average point guard, but it is still a little less interesting for Curry.
Although in the entanglement with Paul today, Curry is always violated by small actions. But instead of throwing a tantrum, Curry kept his hand feeling good.
That's it, Curry hit another three-pointer today! Moreover, it was another goal in the middle of interference!
"Terrible, this is Stephen, Curry's infinite range. When he throws away, there's nothing stopping him from scoring unless he blocks it directly. ”
"According to Curry's performance, I'm afraid the Pacers are more than lucky. The Pacers were just as accurate at shooting three-pointers, but they couldn't shoot in such demanding conditions. ”
"yes, yes."
Mike Brin and Kevin Harlan were chatting when they heard the sound of the Nets tumbling on the basketball court. The two hurriedly looked intently on the basketball court and found that Antetokounmpo was still in a shooting position, and he was in his position at this time
Outside the three-point line!
"What's going on!?" Mike Brin and Kevin Harlan saw this scene, but they didn't know how to interpret it.
The Warriors' players were similarly confused, especially Green, who was as stupid as a three-year-old baby from a reasonable arc of the collision zone.
Antetokounmpo gestured to the stands at Oracle Arena with a finger on his lips and motioned for them to shut up. And on the big screen at the scene, the replay just now was also given.
It turned out that after Curry hit a three-pointer, the Pacers sent a quick baseline shot. Paul received the baseline ball and gave it to Antetokounmpo, who suddenly stopped outside the three-point line and threw a three-pointer!
In this way, in a flash of light, the Pacers gave Curry another three-pointer to each other!
"How is this possible!? 3 of 3 three-pointers!? Mike Brin stood up and rubbed his eyes vigorously.
"Pause, pause!" Cole scrambled to his feet, and as a championship coach, he keenly smelled danger.
This guy could no longer sit on the bench and pretend to be forced, the situation was completely beyond his imagination.
Antetokounmpo and Stephen Curry exchanged three-pointers to help the Pacers equalize again. What did Coach Henson do to Antetokounmpo last night? It's incredible! ”
Antetokounmpo used a three-pointer to stop the Warriors, how ridiculous. But basketball is sometimes so ridiculous.
Antetokounmpo walked to the sidelines to the boos of the Warriors fans, and of course, the louder the boos on the road, the better you played! Prove that the home fans are more afraid of you!
Antetokounmpo looked around with great enjoyment, as did Henson.
The Greeks flapped their chests, and Henson looked into the distance with a smile, both men seeming to glow with silver.
"Well done, I'm so proud of you. Look over there, look at the Warriors' bench, look at the booing stands. They're scared, Aucklanders are scared! Henson didn't skimp on his compliments, he felt so good now. Before the game, everyone thought they were dead, and Kerr thought he had no choice.
But I'm just waiting for you to bite the hook!
"Now, the initiative is in our hands! Next, Antetokounmpo will certainly draw their defense from beyond the three-point line, and the Warriors' interior defense will become extremely weak. Then, Oladipo, George, use your onslaught to show the people of Auckland what despair is! ”
Oladipo took off his training uniform and nodded repeatedly, while George rubbed his palms excitedly, ready to make a big move.
Henson put away the tactics board and looked at Cole from afar, who was nervously arranging his tactics.
Obsolete? A person with strength will never go out of style!
