Chapter 321: The Time of Kill

As Zhang Xiaotian's basic strength becomes stronger, he can also score in the first three quarters and play alone with the ball, but if you want to say what is different about him in the last quarter, four words are unreasonable.

The four words unreasonable are a symbol of the All-Star level, Curry's three-point is unreasonable, James is unreasonable with the ball, Zhang Xiaotian came to this level at the end of the day.

He's in the number three position right now, facing Andre Iguodala.

It is very risky to go inside to kill in Iguoda Ramen, so Zhang Xiaotian chose a more concise way, and after receiving the ball, he just took a big stride and pulled it up.

Hit a two-point shot and don't care who the defender is.

Livingston on the Warriors' side also hit, and several of their benches also have their own unique skills, but Zhang Xiaotian is no longer at this level.

He and Irving teamed up to attack the opposition defense and once again helped the team take the lead.

Steve Colton sensed the difference in the Finals, and he wanted to use the rotation to give his teammates a reprieve that the Warriors were not a team that needed to be the main players.

But whether the team wants to play the main force or not, the key is to look at the strength of the opponent.

Seeing that the knights took the initiative, Steve Kerr did not hesitate, and the Splash Brothers immediately replaced him.

The Cavaliers also replaced James, and only two minutes passed in the fourth quarter, and the showdown began early.

At this time, the lineup is different from the beginning, and the Cavaliers are also using one large and four small.

The Warriors didn't use a five-small lineup, and they were still a little jealous of James.

But even if they left the big man on the court, James still scored as soon as he came up.

However, the Cavaliers' big four and small against the Warriors do not have as much advantage as against other teams, because the Warriors' second, third, and fourth positions can change defenses at any time, and like them, there is no defense that cannot be guarded.

It's a pity that Lefu is not there, otherwise they can be forced to use five small, and Lefu came out and James went to fight inside.

The five-small lineup is a double-edged sword, and the knights are not afraid at all.

It's just that if you want to attack like that, the Cavaliers must be more ferocious on the offensive end and quickly take advantage, otherwise James will have to make a big effort on the defensive end, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on, after all, he is also over 30 years old.

After the Cavaliers led by six points, Curry stepped up his breakthrough and sent assists in a row, and Klay Thompson also exerted his offensive power to catch up the score again.

After David Blatter thought about it, he gave up one big and four small and put two inside lines again.

One big and four small can't be drawn without the advantage of alignment, and the key is that the outside line is not easy to do.

Shampert won't attack, Smith can't get Klay Thompson, so he simply gets back to starting mode, Tristan Thompson is not too slow, and Draymond Green is not so good on the offensive end after all.

This is also the reason why the opponent is on the court, if the Warriors play five, the Cavaliers can only keep Tristan Thompson on the court at most.

After the lineup was adjusted, Klay Thompson was limited by Zhang Xiaotian.

No matter how strong Klay Thompson's shooting is, his ball handling is just average, and this is the gap between him and Curry.

Zhang Xiaotian couldn't say that he was completely restricted before, but now, he can basically make this point half useless.

At 3:47, Zhang Xiaotian hit a three-pointer, but then Iguodala also hit.

Then there is James and Curry, which can only be said to be worthy of the finals, the Cavaliers are already bursting points, and the Warriors can still bite it.

At 1:12, the Cavaliers made a mistake, and Curry hit a three-pointer on the counterattack, and the Warriors led again 100-98.

The Cavaliers paused, David Blatter explained the tactics with a straight face, in fact, he was also a little nervous at this time, but Zhang Xiaotian and other players were better.

The Warriors' defensive setup also put Zhang Xiaotian and James in the first place, and although Irving didn't play badly this time, previous games have shown who is a dangerous player.

There was plenty of time, and the Warriors didn't focus on the serve defensively.

After James got the ball, he began to observe the situation on the court, and Zhang Xiaotian made a move to ask for the ball, which he rarely played like this in this playoffs.

Klay Thompson was behind his back, and his hands were slightly harder, and the referee wouldn't blow at this time.

Draymond Green was ready to flank the attack, but they still didn't expect Zhang Xiaotian's decisiveness.

After receiving the ball, Zhang Xiaotian turned around and arched inside, and pulled it up before the help defense came over, the tough two points, his strongest means before the three-point ability came up, and now it is also his most murderous offensive method.

With 54 seconds left and the two teams tied 100-100, the Warriors finally made a change and removed Bogut.

The Cavaliers also dropped the center and replaced it with Shampert.

Curry holds the ball to cover, and then breaks through with momentum, which is actually a step back.

The Cavaliers were prepared, and their defensive tactics were to let others shoot and not let the Splash Brothers shoot.

Irving and Shambert pounced together, Curry pulled the ball again, changed direction and killed it, and then stopped the shooting feint to make James lose his center of gravity, and then turned to shoot the ball.

This possession of the ball can make Owen jealous.

Then the offense on the Cavaliers' side was very simple, James went inside to score the ball, and Zhang Xiaotian faced the defense with three points.

The fans watching the live broadcast are a little blind, isn't it the wrong script.

Zhang Xiaotian actually used the way Curry is best at, no, this is also what Tianshen is good at.

With 21 seconds left, the Cavaliers led by one point at 103:102.

It's time to kill again, and all five of the Warriors can shoot, but Zhang Xiaotian feels that it must be Curry who makes the shot.

While two points would do the trick, Curry could also shoot a three-pointer.

The Warriors attacked from midfield, and Curry was front of Shampert.

Cover, kill inside, this time Curry was surrounded, Draymond Green came over to pick it up in time, he received the ball and handed the ball to Curry again.

Curry went back, and suddenly he stepped back.

Both Shampert and James, who followed the block, were a little unresponsive.

But when Curry made a move, he found a large hand slapping hard from the side.

When Draymond Green passed, Zhang Xiaotian noticed the situation, and Curry couldn't pass the ball to Klay Thompson on the back at the first time.

gambled, Zhang Xiaotian believed that it would be too late for him to retreat if he made a mistake in judgment.

Sure enough, Curry only had the basket in his eyes at this time, and Zhang Xiaotian pounced directly.

Curry, who rarely blocks three-pointers, was unexpected this time, because Zhang Xiaotian did not come head-on.

A big hat, Owen, who was changing the defense to the bottom corner, took a step back to catch the ball, and then rushed forward quickly, not to fight back, but to delay time.

Curry also reacted quickly and rushed towards Irving.

Tactical foul, Curry almost flew over and hugged the person.

With just five seconds left, the Cavaliers went to the free throw line.

It's just that Owen's side is holding his knees with a somewhat painful expression.

What's the matter, Cavaliers fans are all in their hearts. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
