Chapter 325: Curry who lifted the seal

Klay Thompson is restricted, but Curry is no longer afraid of Dellavedova's entanglement.

After winning a game, Curry was like lifting the seal and showing his true strength.

But what caught the Cavaliers off guard was Draymond Green, who was the Warriors' defensive stalwart, but he also showed good offensive prowess on the court, and this one hit consecutive shots from the start.

The Cavaliers originally planned to hit the opponent with interior height, after all, Draymond Green and Iguodala are stronger defensively than offensively, and even if Iguodala can hit key shots, it can't change his problems on the offensive end, so the Cavaliers don't follow the opposing lineup.

But now that Draymond Green is attacking at this point, it will be a loss to hit them on the inside, after all, the pace of the attack on the inside is relatively slow, and it is not okay if the defense cannot help.

The knights were also quick to react and replaced Mozgov.

It's okay to keep Tristan Thompson, you can't put James at the top of the five at the start.

After the lineup adjustment, the Cavaliers gradually got used to the opponent's small lineup.

It was Zhang Xiaotian who sounded the horn of the counterattack, and his three points were a perfect match for James after the strength bonus.

In the first half, Zhang Xiaotian hit 5 three-pointers, and James also scored 20 points.

However, there are too few Cavaliers to score in the current lineup, and Smith can score without Mozgov.

Many teams play small lineups and the defense will decline, but the Warriors are the opposite, in front of their defense, it is really difficult to play without two brushes.

At the last moment of the first half, Zhang Xiaotian pressed the whistle again to help the team lead by 1 point.

In the first two quarters, the two teams overtook each other several times and played extremely fiercely.

This kind of thing needs to grit your teeth and hold on, otherwise you will relax because there is nothing to lose.

The Warriors have no way back, and as long as they hold on, they will definitely be the first to collapse.

"Be sure to keep an eye on his three points." Coach Kerr said solemnly at halftime.

James, on his side, used Iguodala as the main defense and Draymond Green as the assistant.

Zhang Xiaotian has tried Klay Thompson and Barnes here, but the effect is still not very satisfactory.

Kerr originally planned to let Iguodala help defend, James scored alone, and it was even more difficult for the Cavaliers to defend when the outside three-pointers opened.

But in the end, he canceled the idea, Iguodala was already tired of keeping an eye on James, and he was afraid that he couldn't take care of it, and if he messed up, the team would be helpless.

In the end, the Warriors decided to use Barnes as the main defense and Klay Thompson as the defense.

Dellavedova and Shambert can be released, and Smith can also be released depending on the situation.

Zhang Xiaotian is really too stable, several times that of Smith.

In the third quarter, the Warriors' defense was more desperate than fierce.

They were guarding against Zhang Xiaotian and James, and the others put more on their side.

The point is that Dellavedova and Shampert really can't shoot, Smith is also iron-clad, but Tristan Thompson picks up a few on the inside.

Tristan Thompson is an offensive man, and while not very strong, James has had a chance under the basket after drawing Draymond Green to help defend in the past.

Curry was not so accurate in the second half, but the Warriors' advantage was in the organization, in addition to Curry, Draymond Green and Iguodala all have very good passing ability, not on the Cavaliers' side.

When the offense is affected, James and Zhang Xiaotian are directly increasing singles, and the Warriors' forward line holds the ball in a high position, and various counter-runs are still different.

There are pros and cons to both methods, the key is to fit the team.

The Warriors didn't rotate as many people in this game, with only eight left.

The Cavaliers are even more exaggerated, without Mozgov, basically a six-man rotation.

Tired must be very tired, but the opponent is not easy, in order to maintain the offensive power, for the defensive end, the Warriors Splash Brothers, Iguodala and others also have little rest, and there is a difference from the front.

Both the offensive and defensive ends are able to apply pressure, and that's where the top teams play each other.

In fact, the difference in strength between the two teams is not big, the key is to see the performance of the core players at the moment of life and death.

During the rotation period, Zhang Xiaotian and James did not rest, and both were ready to play in the second half.

The Warriors still can't be so ruthless, and even if they do, it's not necessary, because they don't have the same core on both the offensive and defensive ends like the Cavaliers.

But even then, the Warriors took the lead into the final quarter.

In the third quarter, Zhang Xiaotian and James were pinched, and their shooting rates were slightly worse.

But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, James and Zhang Xiaotian teamed up to score 10 points.

And in just two and a half minutes, not only the warriors were outburst, but the knights' outbursts were also terrifying.

The Cavaliers traded for Klay Thompson at the minute and half mark, followed by Curry.

Compared to physical strength, the Splash Brothers may still be slightly inferior, the key is that Kerr is a little more confident, and the defensive strategy in the third quarter made him think that he could relax a little and then fight again.

But the offensive end and the defensive end are originally one, the Cavaliers are not the kind of low-end team, there is no threat from Curry, and Zhang Xiaotian's ability has improved again, and the Cavaliers are much easier to play.

Curry came up and scored 5 points in a row, and as soon as he opened this point, the Cavaliers were not easy to defend against other points.

Not only do they have to help defend when they break through, but if they block outside the three-point line, the Cavaliers will also try to pinch Curry.

No way, this guy is too accurate, and his personal defense can't keep up.

Zhang Xiaotian can't change defenses, if James goes to defense, he doesn't have that energy, and the key may not be able to limit death.

And this lineup, James must help defend inside.

So if Curry comes up and explodes points, the Cavaliers must counterattack on the offensive end.

At 4 minutes and 52 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian hit a three-point shot after continuous shaking outside the three-point line.

87:86, pulled back the score that had just been overtaken by Curry.

But then Draymond Green made a strong foul and made a pass to help the Warriors score five points.

On the Cavaliers' side, Zhang Xiaotian and James each hit a mid-range shot, and it was tied at 91:91.

Then Curry scored 5 points in a row, which was completely unreasonable.

On the Cavaliers' side, Tristan Thompson and James both missed one free throw, 93-96, and suddenly they fell behind by three points.

But then Iguodala hit two free throws, and Zhang Xiaotian scored three points to tie the score.

Iguodala is also strange, he can throw in three-point shots, but he makes a mess of free throws.

With 2 minutes and 20 seconds left, the Warriors couldn't bear the pressure and took the lead in requesting a timeout.

After the timeout, they let Draymond Green hold the ball and Curry played without the ball.

That's when things happened.
