In the second half, after a battle of ideas, Nelson Sr. decided to put O'Neal on the court again, because the opposite Hornets also replaced Chandler and David West.

However, Li Zhi still stayed on the court, Li Zhi didn't seem to be tired no matter how he played, and old Nelson lamented that Li Zhi had strong physical fitness.

At the beginning of the second half, Kyle Lowry faced Devin Brown, the backup point guard of the Hornets, and contributed a steal when he came up, and the timing of the steal was very good, not the gambling steals of Iverson and Wei Shao, and after judging Devin Brown's pass, he intercepted it.

The small steel cannon was full of horsepower, and the fast attack scored two points.

Back on the defensive end, Lee was defending James Posey.

Speaking of the league's best defensive role players: Bruce Bowen, Raga Bale, Ruben Patterson, Sean Battier...... And definitely not to forget about Posey. Posey does not have Uncle Bao's "unscrupulous means" on the defensive end, but with his veteran experience and accurate judgment, he can even defend a big forward 3 inches taller than him when his body is not dominant, which poses a considerable threat to the offensive players holding the ball. In addition, eavesdropping while his opponents are discussing tactics is also Posey's secret weapon.

But compared to his defense, his offensive ability is not a threat in front of Rich, who took some time off to help Nick Young deal with Peja.

Yang Shaoxia's defense was, in Li Zhi's words, "miserable."

Although under the guidance of Li Zhi, the defensive attitude has improved compared to the previous life, but Nick Young really seems to have no defensive talent, or no excellent defensive awareness.

"Bang!"

The basketball didn't go in, O'Neal happily grabbed the rebound, Milicic was aggrieved, obviously the rebound flew towards him, he could reach out and get it, O'Neal also came over to grab his rebound.

Peja glanced at Li Zhi meaningfully, his eyes were full of jealousy, and the pressure brought by Li Zhi to Peja in the first half was huge, which caused Peja to miss several shots. So in the second half of the second quarter, Peja was directly pressed to the bench by Hornets head coach Scott, and finally didn't have to face Li Zhi in the third quarter, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to be so good at making up defense.

The Warriors attacked, Kyle Lowry had a "kingly spirit" when facing the Hornets bench, and he overcame Devin Brown for a while, and then broke through the ball Rich.

Li Zhi received the ball, and there was no one in front of him, and the defensive titan James Posey seemed to have a slight misunderstanding with Peja in the change of defense, and this misunderstanding gave Li Zhi a chance to vacate the position.

Li Zhi raised his hand, and James Posey pounced on him like a wild dog. However, Li Zhi retracted his shooting action instead, shook off James Posey and then dribbled through.

James Posey waited in the air to see Li Zhi kill the Hornets' inside line.

Hornets interior line Hilton Armstrong and Julian Wright. The former, a '06 first-round pick who didn't score well or defend well, could only be considered a replacement for Chandler in regular time, buying Chandler some time to rest. The latter is a swingman with good explosiveness and outstanding bounce.

Li Zhi faced two second-rate interior lines effortlessly, and directly scored and dropped a layup.

After the layup, Li Zhi suddenly had a feeling of being in the Olympics, that is, a feeling of scoring like picking up something.

The game continued, the Hornets attacked, Devin Brown took the ball again, controlled the ball to the front court and the Hornets scattered, Peja was the main output of the Hornets' second lineup, and in general, to prevent Peja, the Hornets' second lineup basically declared bankruptcy.

However, Nick Young didn't stop Peja's attack, and Peja received the ball and hit it from mid-range, which felt good to drive.

Warriors offensive round, Kyle Lowry controlled the ball to the frontcourt, Li Zhi ran out again, in the face of such a defense can not score, Li Zhi felt guilty, Li Zhi and Kyle Lowry cooperated, this time the Hornets James Posey did not lose his position, but Li Zhi then received the ball and O'Neal blocked, James Posey changed defenses, but fat has the benefit of being fat, O'Neal did not use small movements this time, watching James Posey go around the defense, but Li Zhi has already arrived at the basket and threw the ball directly to the basket.

Milicic's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, this kid actually passed the ball to himself.

Milicic jumped up in an instant and dunked the basketball into the basket. After the dunk, Milicic hammered the chest, a rare MAN.

The game continued, the Hornets attacked, Armstrong on the inside got the ball and singled out the Golden Retriever, but the Golden Retriever was not a soft persimmon, and pulled Armstrong down at the critical moment, although it was accompanied by a foul, but the momentum was still played.

Armstrong hit both free throws.

Nelson, who was on the sidelines, frowned and said, "Why did Darko foul?" This ball can obviously interfere with. ”

Nelson thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to. Because no matter how Milicic played, he still looked good, playing 18 minutes and scoring 9 points and 4 rebounds.

Coming to the offensive end again, Li Zhi attacked again.

Breakthrough!

Or a breakthrough!

Richie cleaned up the league's top defenders with a sharp break, and James Posey looked shocked, a feeling that was familiar, like Kobe Bryant.

After Richter passed James Posey, Peja made up for the defense, but in the face of the menacing Rich, Pecja only symbolically stretched out his hand, and his defense actually did not suffer much in strength and footwork in the face of most of the league's No. 3 players, but has been criticized for being too passive and weak in defensive attitude.

The two Hornets players on the inside couldn't stop Li Zhi, O'Neal had excellent position awareness, and Li Zhi went straight to the basket on the right side.

After Li Zhi scored, O'Neill patted Li Zhi's shoulder excitedly, as if it was himself who scored.

In this way, after a few minutes of playing, watching the lead be chased back little by little, Scott angrily called a timeout.

Lee played like a superstar against the Hornets' bench, which turned the score to 66:59.

Scott replaced the main team with a depressed face, Paul, Chandler, and David West, who had rested for more than half a quarter, returned, and Nelson also made adjustments to the Warriors' lineup.

Nelson replaced O'Neal, who suffered a loss in rebounding, and Chandler scolded O'Neal for being "shameless" and "deserter", but O'Neal pointed to the rebounding data on the screen and walked away with a smug face.

O'Neal had 12 rebounds and Chandler had 10.

Richie was also replaced, but Crawford and Jackson came on, Nelson's entire game was replaced, and Jordan Jr. and Milicic were on the inside.

At this time, people were shocked to find that the second team of the Warriors was surprisingly strong.
