Chapter 294: Grab the start

"I didn't make up for this ball in time, and I should have shrunk to the basket when Myers went to make up for Green!" Hoggist stepped up and took the initiative.

However, on the offensive end, the Lakers also began to be blocked, under the high post of Hougist, Jeremy Lin cut to the basket to catch the ball and the rebound was also blocked, Barnes took the rebound and dribbled back, gave Curry at the top of the arc and set up a cover for him, after the cover, Hougist switched to Curry, this is the first confrontation between the two players who have played best this season, this is a historic moment!

Curry's dribbling tempo changes quickly, but Horgist remains unmoved, intending to respond to the changes, always feeling that with his height and reach, he has completely enveloped Curry in his defense. But Curry's pace of shooting was faster, and in the process of dribbling, he suddenly collected the ball and shot, and when Hougist reacted and stretched out his hand, the ball had already passed his fingertips and flew to the basket, which was also an accurate three-point shot, but Curry's difficulty was much higher than that of Hoggist, and the fans stood up and cheered after the goal, and many "neutral" fans of the "one-ball theory" sighed: "Alas, it was supposed to be such a tiger that Hoggist performed, and it was 81 points and all kinds of steals and blocks, and I thought he could stop Curry!" I didn't expect to be humiliated by Curry so easily! It seems that Horgist can't count on it, who else can cause problems for the Warriors? ”

This remark was immediately refuted by Lakers fans, "My Lake is still leading by 3 points!" How do you say it as if we've already lost? ”

What's the situation, my reaction is fast enough, I didn't expect Curry's shot to be faster than what I saw in the video! Hoggist was shocked by his first encounter with Curry, no wonder there are so many guards taller than Curry, but there are very few who can really limit his offense. Steady down, Hougist followed everyone to the frontcourt, continued to hold the ball on the flank, and handed the ball to Turner in the low post with a dummy swing, Turner held the ball with his back, leaned on Bogut and easily turned over and hit a hook shot.

Then there is the old problem, the Warriors' serve is too fast, it seems that Turner's throw has just passed through the Nets Warriors players have rushed through the halfcourt, Green took advantage of the unstable defensive formation of the Lakers, directly dribbled to the basket, had to praise Randle's defense, Randle, who was preoccupied in the opening game, was always vigilant, and jumped up and reached out to interfere with it while following Green, Green tried to pull the rod for a layup, but was covered by the basket.

The rebound ball almost fell directly into Randle's arms, handed to Jeremy Lin, and everyone rushed to the front court together, the Warriors can play fast, and the Lakers are naturally not to be outdone.

This ball Jeremy Lin quickly passed the half court and quickly got the ball to Turner, who was already standing under the basket, Turner pulled up directly on the spot and prepared to dunk with both hands, but was knocked out by Bogut from the side, Turner, who lost his balance in the air, tried to force the ball into the basket with one hand, but it was still a fraction of a second, and finally the ball bounced out of the basket and failed to achieve 2+1.

Turner missed the first free throw, and after the second free throw, he quickly retreated to prevent the opponent from counterattacking quickly, and Hougist also stayed in the front court to interfere with the Warriors' serve, successfully slowing down the Warriors' offensive speed, Curry slowly dribbled to the frontcourt, and the Warriors began to run a figure 8 in the high post to pass the ball, and Bogut mentioned the high post to cover for the ball carrier. Klay broke through to the basket through the cover, but was defended by Kobe and Haugist, this defensive intensity is terrible, Klay has no chance to shoot, can only distribute the ball to Bogut who is down, but this time Turner is not out of position, Bogut's hook hand is off the basket under his interference.

Haugist received the rebound and pushed the fast break, and after the breakthrough was blocked by Green, he still chose to distribute the ball to Turner, who followed up, but Turner neither put the ball in the basket nor made a foul this time. The Warriors grabbed the rebound, not to mention another wave of counterattacks, this time the person who attacked with the ball became Klay, but Klay's layup crashed into Hougist's arms and gave Hougist a steal for nothing.

Horgist dribbled back to the front court, and gave the ball to the basket again, Green in front of him turned his head and prepared to shrink the inside line to help defense, but he didn't want Horgist to just make a fake pass, the ball was still caught in his right hand, and he saw that he deceived Greenhaugist and calmly shot a three-pointer, and the difference had come to 9 points after hitting.

The Warriors seem to have an iron head, continue to counterattack at high speed, Green breaks through the ball to Klay in the bottom corner, Klay shoots very resolutely, but the iron is more resolute, Kobe Bryant picks up the rebound and counterattacks to score two points again, the score has become 16:5, it seems that the Lakers' strategy to grab the start has really succeeded, but everyone does not dare to take it lightly, after all, leading by 20 points in front of the Warriors is a matter of a moment.

The Warriors called a timeout, and the fans in the arena were still cheering for the team, not bothered by the 11-point deficit, they are used to the team falling behind at certain moments, and they can always come back in the end anyway, right?

"Well done guys! Keep the lead! We're going to win the game today! Shashewski clapped his hands and encouraged everyone.

"Don't get too happy, Curry shot too fast! With my reflexes and dominant body, I couldn't stop him, and if he starts to attack harder, I'm afraid our defense won't be able to withstand it! Hoggist was not so optimistic.

"Isn't it! Aren't you usually very confident? Why did Curry's confidence crumble today as soon as he made a shot in front of you? Šašewskiy was surprised.

"I tried my best to defend that ball just now, and if I couldn't stop Curry's three points with all my strength, then whether he scored or not really depends on his own mood!" Hougist said worriedly.

Shashewski comforted: "You're thinking too much, aren't you? You're going all out defending, how do you know Curry isn't going all out on offense? He's a world-class pitcher, so how can he be worthy of this title if he doesn't score a few difficult three-pointers? It's that you shouldn't be under too much pressure, your scoring ability is not weaker than Curry's, and it's obvious that you played better, keep shooting with a calm mind, and now it's them who should be worried about them instead of us! ”

After the pause, I don't know what the Warriors did, the Lakers will still be waiting, Bogut took the ball in the low post, was pushed more and more by Turner, and finally stood in the high post, and distributed the ball horizontally to Barnes, the North Carolina Black Hawks' catch-and-shoot was interfered with by Hoggist, who once again collected the rebound and launched a fast break. The Warriors defended quickly, and the Lakers had no choice but to change to positional offense, Horgist gave the ball to Jeremy Lin to organize the offense, and he went to run, but the quality of the Warriors' positional defense was also strengthened, and the Lakers never transmitted opportunities.

Seeing that there was not much offensive time left, Horgist wanted the ball on the wing and planned to attack with his back, and after receiving the ball, he rushed to the free throw line with Green, and Horgist made a quick stop jump shot, although Green failed to interfere with the upper body, but the waist was very uncomfortable by Green.

"Damn it!" Hougist scolded secretly, and hurriedly turned back to defend. The Warriors continued to attack quickly, and the Lakers' defense speed was also not slow, and the Warriors, who couldn't find an opportunity, also played a positional offense.

Klay had another open three-point shot in the corner, but still couldn't hit it. Bogut and Turner racked the ball off the baseline as they fought for the rebound, resulting in a dead ball, and the Lakers got the ball but lost a fast-break opportunity.

Jeremy Lin dribbled to the front court and distributed the ball to Kobe, who and Turner played a pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, and Bryant's breakaway shot helped Turner score two points on an easy throw in the three-second zone.

18:5, but the Lakers didn't have time to be happy and celebrate, the Warriors quickly advanced to the front court again, and this time the position was more chaotic, Hougist faced Curry again, but this time Curry didn't shoot three points, because the Lakers also had a mismatch under the basket, and Green got a chance to hit Jeremy Lin with his back!

Curry sent the ball inside with a flick of his wrist, and Green forced Jeremy Lin with his back to score two points with ease.

Jeremy Lin rubbed his chest and dribbled to the frontcourt, Hoggist ran back from the bottom corner to the line, and Turner covered Hoggist off the ball in the elbow area on the same side, and by the way, moved Bogut out of the inside.

Haugist then cut up to Turner's cover and received the ball, reflexively went inside, and took a long step to pass Bogut who switched and Barnes who came from the weak side to complete a slam dunk.

"It seems that Hoggist's attack is still very sharp! actually led the team to beat the Warriors so badly! "It's not a big deal to have neutral fans to watch the excitement, and in front of many Warriors fans, they praise Haugist.

"That's called attacking sharpness, isn't it? Don't you see that my library hasn't made any effort yet? If my Ku soars, it's a matter of four three-pointers, and is it a matter for Curry to score four three-pointers in a row? "Warriors fans don't care about the current lag at all.

Sure enough, the Warriors' offense gradually got back on track, and Klay singled out Kobe Bryant in the elbow area and hit a long two-point jumper with a step-back jumper. After Jeremy Lin and Kobe made a mistake, Klay turned around and made a quick layup, causing Kobe's foul again.

With 5 minutes and 41 seconds left in the first quarter, the Warriors replaced Barnes for Iguodala, and the Lakers also replaced Kobe and Turner, replaced Nance and Yi Jianlian, and put out a large and four small lineup, and Hougist changed to the No. 2 position to defend Klay. Thompson.

Klay hit both free throws, Jeremy Lin controlled the ball and the newly replaced Yi Jianlian cooperated in the front court. Yi Jianlian took the cover and took the ball out to catch the jumper, but failed to hit. And the wayward Green responded with a missed three-point shot at the top of the arc.

Nance received the rebound and threw it to the fast Hougist, Hougist dribbled from the wing to the basket, Bogut and Green pounced to block, but Hoggist did not get up to the basket, but instead dribbled through the paint area to the other side of the court, and after attracting everyone's defensive attention, he threw the ball to Yi Jianlian, who followed up in the middle, Yi Jianlian held the ball in both hands and set it on fire, but it was unfortunately destroyed by Clela's hand.

Yi Jianlian stood on the free throw line and steadily delivered a two-free throw. But when he turned around, Curry quickly advanced and easily passed Jeremy Lin for a layup and returned a two-point shot.

Jeremy Lin wanted to make a foul on Curry, but the referee continued to be blessed by the racist buff and ignored Jeremy Lin, who fell, and Curry also got a steal for nothing, dribbling quickly to try to score a layup.

But the absence of Jeremy Lin does not mean that Curry can sit back and relax, and a pair of eyes have been secretly staring at him, Curry rode the dust, and suddenly came to the interest to try a dunk, but Hougist took a long leg, took three steps and made two steps, quickly chased after him, and sent Curry out of the baseline with the ball with a big hat. The most ruthless thing is that until Curry fell to the ground, the ball was still pressed by Haugist's hands.

The ball was back in the hands of the Lakers, who played another wonderful match in the frontcourt, and Jeremy Lin sent a brilliant aerial relay for Nance Jr., but Nance's dunk was interfered with by Green and could not be dunked.

Curry constantly covered with his teammates in the frontcourt, using his three-point deterrent to force the Lakers to quickly rotate defenses and create misplaced opportunities for himself. But in the face of these opportunities, Curry didn't make a shot, and he saw Iguodala in the low post on the weak side opening his hand for the ball, so he quickly moved the ball over.

Iguodala received the ball and faced Nance as he was defending, raised his hand to pick him up, and then dribbled along the baseline to the other side of the basket for a reflexive dunk. Although the dunk was destroyed by Randle, it also caused Randle's foul. Iguodala made one of two free throws to make it 14:22 and the margin returned to eight points.

Facing the Lakers' big lineup, the Warriors had no choice but to let Klay defend Hoggist, and Hougist used his height advantage to easily hit a long two-point shot above Klay's head.

Next, Jeremy Lin was lucky, and when Curry broke through, he cut the ball successfully, and Hougist immediately turned around and went down quickly, receiving Jeremy Lin's pass throughout the court and sending a violent dunk again.

This time the fast break was played very fast, Curry hadn't even come back yet, Green served and wanted to go through the sea of people to find Curry in the frontcourt, but the strength was not accurate enough, and the ball fell into Jeremy Lin's hands again.

Coming to the frontcourt, the Lakers planned to press time to play slowly, and under the conduction, Yi Jianlian once again got a chance to shoot three points from the outside, but unfortunately he still failed to hit.

After Green picked up the rebound, this long pass finally found Curry. But Curry's frontal three-pointer was short, and the ball hit the outside of the basket and bounced to the free throw line.

The rebound was caught by Randle and flung it in the direction of the Warriors' basket, and he knew that Hoggist would be there. Sure enough, the ball crossed the crowd and landed in the paint area, and Hougist fought his way out of the crowd to catch the ball first. With a light leap, the ball was gently placed in the basket.

At 28:14, the Lakers scored twice as many points as the Warriors, and the Lakers' tactics of grabbing the start can be said to be a perfect success!
