Chapter 386: The Great Competition
About ten minutes later, the halftime was over, and the Kings and Warriors players walked out of the locker room and returned to the court.
Unexpectedly, the fans prepared earlier, and there was no such thing as the usual start of the third quarter before returning to their seats one after another. I don't think I want to think about it for a second, after all, it's rare to see such a wonderful game.
The lineups on both sides remained the same as in the second quarter, with Zhang Feng taking Randolph's baseline serve and running forward with small steps.
"Sure enough, make a tactical change" Seeing Curry facing him, Zhang Feng began to think about how to deal with it, "It's useless to think too much, it's better to do it directly, it's not Durant anyway."
After thinking a little, Zhang Feng accelerated his dribble and went straight to the right side of the court, apparently intending to force a breakthrough through Curry.
On defense, Curry has always liked to steal, but Zhang Feng's center of gravity pressure is relatively low, and he does a particularly good job of protecting the ball holder.
It was impossible to let Zhang Feng break into the interior line, and seeing that Curry couldn't stop it, Green stepped forward in the right short corner area and stood near the three-point line, ready to fight with Curry.
Generally speaking, at this time, Zhang Feng passed the basketball to Randolph, but he didn't expect Zhang Feng to jump directly, he didn't have the slightest sign of bending his abdomen, like a rocket without buffering, and he rose from the ground in a daze.
As a DOPY winner, Green's defensive skills need not be said, but defensive outside 3 points are not his strong point, he can only work with Rose, symbolically reach out to interfere, watch Zhang Feng shoot, and may pray in his heart: "Don't go in."
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Feng's basketball shot from the three-point line hollowed into the net.
His own players played a beautiful offense, and Napier hurriedly praised: "He played this ball like Kobe Bryant when he was young, unstoppable, unstoppable"
Regarding Napier's statement, Doug nodded in agreement: "That's right, what's even more powerful is that he jumped much higher than Kobe Bryant when he was young, otherwise Green wouldn't have the slightest desire to block."
Yibian Warriors attacked, Curry handed over the ball to Green in the middle, Green passed to the left wing Durant at the top of the arc, Durant received the ball and changed to his left hand and at the same time set up his right hand to separate Zhang Feng and kill inside.
The two have been fighting each other for more than ten rounds in a row since the first quarter, and they have touched each other's routines more thoroughly.
The moment Durant shot, Zhang Feng had a jump block, but he was always half a beat slower, even if he had a terrifying bullet speed, but he couldn't make up for the gap in arm span between the two, and Durant still shot backwards.
All in all, Zhang Feng tried his best, and he really couldn't prevent it.
In the NBA, some techniques are impossible to defend, as long as the opponent completes the technical action of the move, you can only pray that the opponent is unlucky, such moves, fans often call it a unique move, such as the Mavericks Novisky's famous stunt - Golden Rooster Independence.
Why is Nowitzki's Golden Rooster Independence so difficult to defend?
Because he is not as fast as him, he is not as tall as him, and if he encounters someone who is faster than him and taller than him, the core strength is not as strong as him, so after combining height, timing of shots, and physical confrontation, his golden rooster independence has become a must in the league.
The same is true for Durant's ball, that is, his strong height and arm span are better than Zhang Feng's.
"The reason why superstars are superstars is because they can't be locked up, and if Durant continues to use this method to deal with Zhang Feng's defense, then Coach David will have to come up with a new solution" Napier looked serious.
"Fortunately, only Durant has this ability on the outside of the Warriors, and others are not afraid, and Zhang Feng can also use this method, isn't he a giant star just now" Doug looked relaxed.
Sure enough, when the king turned around, Zhang Feng made another arc top dry pull to set Curry, this time Curry did have a jump to interfere, but it still had no effect.
was scored 3 points by Zhang Feng in a row, even if he is a role player, he will have the idea of getting back on the court, let alone Curry, a two-time MVP winner?
When it was the Warriors' turn to attack, Dulatt and Green both retreated to the sidelines on both sides, intending to complete Curry, but it was Rose who defended Curry, and even if he scored, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
Curry dribbled around the three-point line, and Durant stepped forward to cover, with a slight delay on Rose.
Durant moved, Zhang Feng chased closely, the top of the four arcs squeezed together, and Curry could only retreat to the midline.
Generally speaking, Zhang Feng should change the defense at this time, but he asked Curry to pass the ball to Durant, so Rose will definitely not be able to prevent it, in case Durant scores again, it will be a disaster for the king, fortunately, Curry is far away from the three-point line at this time, so it should be too late for Rose to catch up, so he did not change the defense.
Unexpectedly, in less than a second, Curry shot directly and hit a 3-point shot.
Curry's biggest weakness is that he is afraid of being close, this defense, Zhang Feng left Curry a little space and time to shoot, and instantly destroyed the previous defense, everyone on the earth knows that after Curry hits a 3-point, he will continue to hit a 3-point.
"It seems that the Warriors are starting to execute the superstar basketball strategy, and I don't know how David will respond" Curry hit a 3-pointer from beyond the arc, and the expression on Doug's face changed from relaxed to restrained.
The trend of the game is as Doug thinks, in the rest of the third quarter, the Warriors' offense is extremely simple, basically Durant plays first, and if it is not good to play Curry, in case Curry is not good to play, he will try his luck by throwing a 3-point shot at Thompson, and only when he is really defended by the Kings can't stand it, he will change Green and Pachulia to chisel the inside line and eat Randolph and Willy raw.
In addition, in the second half of the third quarter, the main players of the two teams were rested, and the Warriors substitutes Iguodala and Livingston led the Warriors to beat the Kings in the second team, and Mason and Bogdan almost received technical fouls.
After three quarters and the Kings trailed 90-98, the fans in Golden One began to get agitated, not wanting to see the home team lose after the half.
"Is there anything you want to say?" David still asks for advice from the Kings.
"Don't play tactics anymore, fight with them, I don't believe anyone has fought Zhang Feng, anyway, their defense is very lax, explode each other, who loses and who wins is really not necessarily" Mason took the lead in proposing.
"It's okay to do it, but we don't have as many as others," Randolph thought was inappropriate.
"That's what you read wrong, we have Zhang Feng and Rose, just the sum of their unique skills, the warriors can't bear it"
"Curry has a great 3-pointer, Durant has a ......"
"You're right, but Curry, Durant, and Thompson will be unique, and Zhang Feng will do it. It can be said that once the world is unique, Zhang Feng has eight buckets, Ross has one bucket, and the rest of the people have one bucket."
