Chapter 377: The Aggrieved Curry (10,000-word chapter)

The team with the highest salary in the league in the 15~16 season is the Cleveland Cavaliers.

In the offseason, Christian Thompson signed a five-year, $85 million contract.

Cavaliers owner Gilbert really wants to compete for a championship, and he keeps the roster that the Cavaliers made to the Finals last season and builds on that.

The total salary of the team has exceeded 100 million US dollars!

In contrast, the Houston Rockets did not show their determination to compete for the championship, sending away Dwight Howard and signing Chris Paul, and the Rockets made up for it and did not make targeted reinforcements.

The $77.6 million salary is not enough to meet the luxury tax line, and the team's owner Alexander and general manager Mo Gou have drawn a big pie and have not fulfilled it.

In the offseason, many commentators thought the Rockets had a lot to offer, but with the start of the season on a three-game losing streak and the bearded players in poor form, everyone understood that the league's best backcourt was a joke.

Of course, this is also related to the scarcity of high-quality big men on the free market, and the Rockets can only rely on new Capela, Terrence Jones, Motaiyunas, and Montrez Harrell in the new season.

On the night of the 2nd, the Rockets lost the same three games as they had lost before, trailing the Clippers by 18 points in the first quarter.

After halftime, the margin was just 22 points, and Rockets fans saw this scene very familiar:

"Isn't this a remake of the first three games?"

Including the game against the Clippers, the Rockets have fallen behind by double digits in four consecutive two-quarter games.

As the focus of the night, the suspense was lost at half-time, which also made the two people in the TNT commentary seat a little embarrassed.

In the morning, Charles Barkley also vowed on the NBA Tip-off program that the Rockets would bottom out, only to be slapped in the face in the evening.

44:66, the game in the second quarter was not good, the Clippers side of Evan Turner, Reggie Bullock, Plumlee, David Lee, all had an average hand, and the inside advantage was not shown, and most of them still relied on Crawford to score.

Reggie Miller on the commentary bench naturally saw the flaws in the Clippers' lineup, Evan Turner was not a good No. 1 position, and failed to organize the offense effectively after coming on the court.

"Coach De Nagro can try to activate Ty Lawson, of course, we don't know what's going on inside the Clippers, but Lawson can really fix the bench problem."

Hearing Reggie Miller shift the conversation to the Clippers, commentator Kevin Harlan also began to share his gossip for fans:

"The media in Los Angeles has broken the news that the suspended Lawson seems to have been partying in a nightclub, and perhaps such behavior has angered the coaching staff of the Clippers."

"The failure to make the 12-man roster is most likely due to Lawson's attitude."

The two stopped talking too much about the game and began to laugh and share the gossip of the Clippers.

In the Staples Arena, there are actually many Clippers fans who are looking forward to seeing Lawson on the court, but unfortunately everyone has been looking forward to two games, and the new signing has been sitting at the end of the bench.

The Clippers aren't in harmony either, with David Lee not liking the bench and Ty Lawson still betting with the coaching staff.

Ingles, Bullock, and Tucker are all vying for starting spots.

Entering the starting lineup, the statistics will definitely rise, after all, there is less playing time on the bench, plus the organization of the attack is a bit stretched, and the chances of scoring easily are less than half.

Interestingly, Jokic gradually settled into the starting position, although there were problems with blocking and pick-and-roll and basket protection, but his tactical adaptation and good passing ability finally won the trust of the coaching staff.

Plumlee was Lopez's backup when he was with the Nets, and he thought he could rush to the starting center position when he came to the Clippers, but he was suppressed again.

Seeing that at halftime, the assistant coach was explaining the precautions for the white fat man, and Plumlee and David Lee both had lemons in their hearts:

Why was he pressed on the head by the second-wheel show?

Reggie Bullock came off the bench to pull his hips, 0-of-4, scored zero eggs, and could only watch Ingles start in the second half.

Veteran Barnes has been a substitute in the second half of his last two games.

Barnes is also dissatisfied with his form, but as he gets older, his physical function declines, and his energy is put into defense, and the offense will be stretched.

Since Jokic became the starting center, the Clippers haven't won the jump ball this season, and at the beginning of the third quarter, the fans immediately shouted happily when they kicked the sideline:

“Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! ”

Steve Ballmer had a busy year last year, and this year he finally has plenty of time to watch again.

With the construction of the new arena on track, after the start of the new season, the old man appeared in the front row under the basketball hoop.

Coach McHale stood on the sidelines with his arms folded with a serious expression.

The legendary legend seems to have endured to the limit, and when he saw Li Zeyun pass the half, Marcus Thorton didn't choose to stick to the defense, and immediately roared and commanded:

"Everybody defend! Defend it! ”

The fans in the front row laughed and heckled, and the Rockets simply became the laughing stock of the league.

Marcus Thorton felt aggrieved, he only received a salary of 1.19 million US dollars this season, how could it be his turn to defend the superstar

The new Capela has been blinded, and at halftime, Paul, Harden, Ariza, and the head coach quarreled again, and there was no impression in my mind on how to defend in the second half.

Watching Jokic in front of him trot all the way to the right elbow area of the free throw line, the new Capela subconsciously followed out.

Meanwhile, Ingalls and Gallinari made a crossover screen in the three-second zone.

After the screen, Gallinari moved to the right low post, Ingles ran to the bottom left corner, and Tucker on the right flank moved to the right bottom corner.

The Clippers' tactical purpose is very strong, and after a quick run, Li Ze immediately gave the ball to Jokic in the right elbow area, who saw that Gallinari had successfully blocked the ball with his back and immediately sent a high hanging pass.

Ariza, who is in charge of the low post defense, plays with twelve points of spirit, and dies behind Gallinari, strictly speaking, this is also a misalignment!

Marcus Thornton seemed to feel that he had completed his mission, and kept looking at Li Ze in front of him, not noticing that Jokic was sideways and moved up two more steps.

The new Capela also did not remind his teammates, there was no tactical concept in his mind, and his attention was instead drawn to Gallinari in the low post.

Paul in the bottom corner of the right side sensed that something was wrong and wanted to remind his teammates, but Li Ze at the top of the arc suddenly accelerated, and with the help of the white fat man's upper cover, he easily threw off the defense.

As soon as he came to the right wing outside the three-point line, he immediately received a pass from Gallinari, Li Ze was empty in front of him, and he quickly jumped outside the three-point line!

“Kayce with three Puts it in!”

Commentator Kevin Harlan raised his voice slightly, he'd seen it five times, and the Rockets' defense was sparse.

Clippers fans were not stingy with their cheers, seeing Li Ze and his teammates high-five in celebration, and cheered loudly again.

Fans in the big back row can actually see the situation on the court, Li Ze passed half the court, the Clippers players began to run, and then simply three transmissions, scored and played, and used the upper cover to easily complete the three-point shot.

The whole process took 10 seconds, and the Rockets were shot by the Clippers' simple three-point tactics!

The Rockets' offense was no different from the first half, with a brawl in the midcourt, and the bearded baller seemed to wake up, with the help of a pick-and-roll to get rid of Tucker's defense.

Facing Jokic, who fought and retreated, he completed a left-handed throw while on the move, and the moment he shot, Harden felt that the ball was short, and subconsciously shouted:

"Rebounding!"

The new Capela just wanted to rush to grab the rebound, Jokic reacted faster, turned around quickly, and at the same time stuck in position, he flicked the ball with his right hand, and then grabbed the ball with his left hand to easily protect the backcourt rebound.

In the cheers of the fans at the scene, Li Ze quickly received the ball, and then everyone in the Clippers immediately rushed across the halfcourt.

The Rockets' defense was quite fast, Jokic received the ball at the top of the arc, and the new Capela was a little dazed and could only subconsciously interfere.

After handing over the ball, Li Ze cut in from the middle and then quickly ran to the bottom left corner.

In the left blocking area, Tucker made a no-ball cover for Li Ze, and Harden thought it was a three-point shot tactic in the bottom corner, and immediately switched defenses with his teammates.

Marcus Thornton subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Tucker next to him didn't cut in, and the bearded golfer followed Li Ze to the bottom left corner, aiming at the Clippers behind him Ingles to complete the hand-to-hand hand on the line, and also relaxed.

Ingles moved laterally and was about to come to the position of the left flank, Li Ze in the bottom corner of the left suddenly started, and Harden hurriedly chased after the defense, but was delayed by Ingles.

Li Ze received the pass, also moved laterally, and with the help of Jokic's upper cover, he completely got rid of the chasing Harden.

Seeing that Capela hadn't come up yet, Li Ze suddenly stopped at the top of the arc, quickly turned around, and made an easy jump shot outside the three-point line!

"Huh!" The three-pointer is scored again!

The new Capella's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it, how did he get in front of him?

Under the basketball hoop, Steve Ballmer laughed and shook his fists in celebration, and the fans cheered loudly again.

The two people in the commentary seat were very helpless, and they put aside this to play the practice match!?

"Kayce is currently 6-of-9 from beyond the three-point line, and the Rockets have to adjust their defensive strategy!"

Commentator Kevin Harlan saw Paul hitting the iron, and Li Zeyun went to the front court and hit a three-point shot that also hit the iron, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Reggie Miller also feels that this game is completely gone, Harden is not in good shape, and it is unrealistic to expect Paul to score 40 points against the wind:

"I think the Rockets should be more concerned about the coexistence of Paul and Harden at the moment, and head coach McHale still has a lot of work to do."

Celestial fans like to refer to Coach McHale as a refrigerator, but at this point the legend feels like a furnace in his body, and his anger is blazing

Ingles actually broke through Harden with the ball in his left hand after the flank and completed the throw, such a scene finally blew up McHale and immediately asked for a timeout!

The on-site director will also do things, frequently focusing the camera on Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner, such a lens language seems to explain the reason why Harden is pulling across.

Coach De Nagro did not replace Li Ze, and he has too little playing time at present!

He played almost 16 minutes in the first half, at least 10 minutes in the third quarter, and another four minutes in the fourth quarter.

The excessively large lead made the Clippers run first on the court for most of the rounds, and let Li Ze take over when they had no chance.

Gallinari was also a little confused, he couldn't even get a foul, and once he broke through, the Rockets didn't even stretch out their hands.

The Clippers threw three-pointers from the outside, blocked and dismantled from time to time, Jokic ate cakes in a row, and the Rockets failed to survive to the fourth quarter.

When it comes to timeout, the live director will give the camera to the Rockets' bench.

Paul was expressionless, draped in a towel, as if he was pondering, Harden's eyes were straight, his mind was no longer on the game, and head coach McHale pulled this face, as if the Rockets owed him millions of dollars.

On the big screen in the center of the Staples Arena, Li Ze's new record was displayed:

"Four straight games to cut 40+ tied the record set by Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady."

Fans in Los Angeles are naturally well aware of this record, and Kobe Bryant has played explosive performances in '06 and '12.

In tonight's game, Li Ze finally played 27 minutes, 14 of 23, including 8 of 14 three-pointers and 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 42 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 steals, and did not make a single turnover.

Although the blind chicken threw many rounds in the back, the early hit rate was too high, so Li Ze's data was still very beautiful.

Commentator Kevin Harlan heard the cheers of the fans, looked at the data on the big screen again, and finally complained helplessly:

"If you continue to brush like this, Chamberlain won't be able to withstand it."

At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 92:124, and the Clippers at home defeated the Rockets, sending the opponent to four consecutive defeats!

The cheers of the fans were very harsh for Paul, but the bearded golfer didn't care at all, laughing and hugging Li Ze.

"Do a good job of security, you know everything else!"

Li Ze will not advise the bearded golfer to leave Khloe Kardashian, and Harden understands his form, but he just wants to challenge his own weakness

"Don't worry, Bro! Don't worry about my problems! ”

Harden pulled Li Ze to greet him for a long time, but he still didn't get dizzy, but at the moment, Khloe Kardashian is relatively strong and always sticks to the bearded golfer.

Paul is not in a good mood, and it can be expected that the press conference after the game will definitely be difficult by the media again, and he will have to take the blame for losing!

The bearded ball man scored 19 points on 5-of-19 shooting, 2-of-9 from beyond the three-point line and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line, while Paul scored 20 points on 7-of-16 shooting, including 1-of-3 three-pointers and 5-of-5 from the free-throw line.

The performance of the two of them combined for 39 points was frantically ridiculed by media reporters after the game.

The four-game losing streak has also made many Rockets fans call for head coach McHale to step down.

In short, losing the MMP, the Rockets have a high probability of pulling their hips this season!

After the start of the new season, the most depressed player is Stephen Curry.

In the first week of the game, the Warriors also had a 3-0 record.

Curry averaged 39.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.7 turnovers in 33.0 minutes per game in three games.

He averaged 22.7 attempts per game and shot 58.8 percent from the field, 11.7 attempts from beyond the three-point line, 48.6 percent from three-point range, and 7.3 free throws per game and a whopping 95.5 percent free throw shooting.

Such data is heavenly! As a result, they lost Player of the Week in the first week.

When Curry saw Li Ze's data, everyone was stupid, did he really treat the basketball game as a 2K game?

In the game that was played simultaneously on the night of the 2nd, Curry vented his depression on the Grizzlies.

At the end of the half, at 34:53, the Warriors had a 19-point lead, and Curry broke out completely in the third quarter, scoring 21 points on 7-of-8 in a single quarter!

Playing 28 minutes in the game, 10-of-16, Curry easily got 30 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 3 turnovers.

At 69:119, the Warriors almost completed 58 achievements, and finally defeated the Grizzlies by 50 points!

I thought that after the game, I would get unanimous praise from the critics, but the response was mediocre.

When Curry returned home, he found that most of the ball critics had followed the wind to praise Li Ze.

Curry was very aggrieved, and he also had some insomnia at night, and couldn't help muttering to himself:

"Is the headline so hard to grab?"

On the night of the 3rd, the Clippers ushered in their first back-to-back games of November at home, and the results sent warmth to the Suns.

Every time Tyson Chandler meets Lee, he is always motivated.

Since being eliminated by Li Ze in the Western Conference Finals, this one has completely held a grudge, not only frequently refusing the recruitment of the Clippers, but also doing his best every time he plays against Li Ze.

That night, Tyson Chandler was 7-of-10 from the field and recorded a big double-double of 14 points and 17 rebounds!

At 108:101, the Suns finally managed to defeat the Clippers.

Coach Denagro's face was a little ugly after the game, 55:44, and the rebounds were 11 points behind!

What made it even more difficult for the coaching staff to accept was that the Suns grabbed 16 frontcourt rebounds.

The disadvantages of the new inside line are exposed, and the game experience is too poor.

Jokic blamed himself a little, the starter is indeed different from the bench, and once he has a problem protecting the basket, the rebound will definitely be exploded

Watching the excitement is not a big deal, the ball critic began to build momentum for David Lee after the game, thinking that the former All-Star power forward is worth starting!

It's a pity that Coach De Nagro, as the champion coach, doesn't think too much about it, and still sticks to the space lineup according to his own ideas.

After a two-day break, the Clippers kicked off their final home game of the week.

At 88:114, the Clippers easily defeated the Mavericks.

Although they were robbed of 50 rebounds by the opponent and 10 frontcourt rebounds by the Mavericks, the Clippers still won easily with their excellent outside play.

Jordan Jr. performed well, with 10 points and 12 rebounds, and also grabbed 4 frontcourt rebounds, and from the perspective of game experience and physical fitness, Jokic did suffer.

It's a pity that the Mavericks made 6 of 30 from the outside and almost smashed the basket at Staples Arena, while the Clippers, 14 of 32, shot the game at halftime.

Coach Carlisle didn't expect the Clippers' three-point shooting to be so fierce, losing this game with a 2-3 record, and the Mavericks didn't start the new season well

On the morning of Nov. 7, the Clippers departed for Oakland for their final game of the week against the Warriors tonight.

Jokic has been practicing hard recently, and the strength training sessions have not been discounted, and the white fat man has a good consciousness, but his body and strength are still a little at a loss.

After getting on the plane for a while, Matt Barnes was speechless, and the team has been so involuted recently that the veteran is a little unbearable.

"The Warriors have been really crazy lately, 6-0, and in the last game against the Nuggets, it was another 40-point performance in a single quarter, an incredible performance!"

Crawford flipped through last week's issue of Sports Illustrated magazine, saw Curry's report, and casually complained about it.

Matt Barnes also found Curry's performance incredible.

Li Ze has a height of 2.01 meters, and he is also a big man, and his body is strong, and his outrageous performance is acceptable to everyone.

After the baptism of Michael Jordan, everyone has great expectations for players around 1.98 to 2 meters.

But Curry is different, this one has a baby face, his body looks a little thin, and he is not too tall, how can he score so many points every game?

"Even if the Warriors have some minor problems with pick-and-roll, it's hard to play Curry's performance when it's replaced by other small players."

Li Ze also heard the complaints of the two, and casually threw aside the gossip magazine that Lily prepared for him, and last year's film investment was still a small loss after careful calculation.

"Maybe this year the Warriors can challenge our all-time best."

Li Ze said casually, Matt Barnes shook his head on the side, and then said in a firm tone:

"No way, Blake and Chris were in too good shape last year, and even if it were, if it wasn't for the winning streak at the back, we wouldn't have been able to play like this."

"The regular season is too long, and if there is a little problem, it will affect the team's record."

The atmosphere team felt that Big Brother was right, and everyone didn't believe that the Warriors could surpass the Clippers' record.

Li Ze thought of the situation of his opponent tonight, but sighed silently in his heart:

"Steve Kerr's absence and the Warriors' results haven't been affected too much, it's really hosted!"

“.”

After the start of the new season, head coach Steve Kerr was temporarily unable to coach the team due to back surgery, and assistant coach Luke Wharton became the acting head coach of the current team.

Warriors fans were worried that the team's performance would be affected, but after the start of the new season, with Curry's explosive performance, the Warriors played a wave of 6 consecutive wins.

The fans were ecstatic, they never expected their assistant coach to have such a level!

Luke Wharton has been in the spotlight lately, and the Lakers are said to be ready for the head coach position, and the young assistant coach will return to the Lakers as head coach next season.

Despite the grapevine, Warriors fans believe that Walton still has two hits.

On the night of the 7th, the tickets for Oracle Arena were sold out, Stephen Curry has exploded recently, and Li Ze is in even better shape, cutting 40+ in six consecutive games!

Warriors fans also want to see who is stronger after the two meet.

As the focus of the week, ESPN's broadcast is also indispensable.

Stimulated by the live broadcast across the United States, Draymond Green directly shouted out the Warriors' goals for this season in an interview before the game:

"We're going to break the 73-win record and no one can stop the Warriors."

"Without the super team, the Warriors will dominate the league in the future!"

The big-mouthed Green didn't provoke Li Ze, the players are not stupid, 40+ in 6 consecutive games, what does this mean, everyone understands it in their hearts.

But bragging about the Warriors, Green won't be polite, he still has to hug Stephen Curry's thigh, as a smart guy, he knows how to survive in the league.

Bogut has not been included in the team's 12-man squad for recent games due to injury.

Luke Wharton made no changes to the lineup, with Festus Azeli still the starting center tonight.

On the Clippers' side, Ingles has been shooting nearly 40% from three-point range in practice recently, and head coach De Nagro did what he said he would do and immediately placed him in the starting lineup tonight.

Li Ze, Tucker, Ingles, Gallinari, Jokic, this set of starters, even the white fat man can throw three-pointers, the pursuit of the ultimate offensive space, the coaching staff intends to continue to throw three-pointers

After the game began, the Oracle Arena was completely boiling, and on the ESPN commentary seat, Mark Jackson had a lemon in his heart:

"Why should Luke Wharton be praised?"

Seeing Wharton standing on the sidelines commanding the players in high spirits, Jeff Van Gundy also began to speak for his old partner:

"In the first few rounds of the opening game, the Warriors had problems with the pick-and-roll, and Azeli started the game, which was not a very good choice for use."

At this time, the Clippers attacked, and after Li Zeyun passed the half, he observed the Warriors' defensive position, and then protected the ball sideways and made tactical gestures.

Jokic quickly approached the logo and went online to block and dismantle high, and Azeli was beaten twice by this tactic, and he was a little stunned at this time.

Clay knows his teammates and naturally has to squeeze through them desperately to form a bag.

Jokic was wide and big, and just stood still on his side, Li Ze, who was protecting the ball with his left hand, leaned forward sharply, and then quickly changed direction under his crotch.

Clay's defense just slid to the left, and Li Ze quickly dribbled behind his back, accelerating while slightly raising his body's center of gravity, and quickly in and out with his left hand during the march.

Aizeli was blinded, seeing Li Ze's body swaying to the right, he subconsciously adjusted the center of gravity of the defense, and then was directly squeezed by Li Ze who was holding the ball in his left hand.

"Shet! Destroy! ”

The prediction was wrong, Aizeli scolded in his heart, and then desperately chased the defense, and the Warriors fans only saw Li Ze shake, rushed to the paint area, and subconsciously exclaimed.

Li Ze's speed was fast, and after he got stuck in a position, he kept accelerating.

Enter the paint area, jump quickly, lean forward, grab the ball with one hand with your left hand, lean on Azeli, who jumped up and blocked, and easily complete the high throw basket!

"Squeak!"

"Bang! "High hit board into the frame!"

Hearing the referee's whistle, Aizeli was depressed, this half of the game was suddenly numbed by Li Ze!

There was another outcry in the Oracle Arena, and Warriors fans didn't expect that in the middle of the game, the starting center would carry two fouls.

Clay, who has been chasing behind him, is also a little helpless, how to prevent this?

Li Ze stood at the free throw line with a relaxed look, and Luke Wharton on the sidelines also ended his custody state and immediately replaced Speights, comforting the frustrated Aizeli by the way.

"I think the Warriors should take Iguodala, and no matter how big man can solve the problem on the defensive end!"

Seeing Li Zejia hit a free throw, the score became 17:13, and Jeff Van Gundy began to question the Warriors' rotation again.

Mark Jackson didn't speak, but the commentator Mike Brin turned into Li Zechui:

"Kayce was aggressive from the start, 4-of-5 from the field, 3-of-3 from the free-throw line, and had already scored 11, all of which came from the three-second zone."

The Warriors' offense encountered difficulties at this time, and Curry was almost invisible for the remaining 6 minutes, except for a sudden cold arrow at the beginning and a three-pointer with a second offense.

Li Ze's physical condition is better this season, and he chased after the opening, although the Warriors have a lot of cover, but most of them have been squeezed by Li Ze.

Also in the half, the Warriors passed the ball faster, and Barnes quickly gave the ball to Green in the low post on the right.

Speights at the top of the arc seems to want to provide Curry with a cover and allow Curry to cut through the middle.

But under Li Ze's strict defense, Curry couldn't get rid of the defense in the end, and the two entered the paint area entangled, and then Curry suddenly ran sideways and quickly came to the bottom right corner.

Green's passing awareness was fantastic, and as soon as Curry was on his feet, the ball was in his hands.

It's just that unlike previous games, Li Ze's chasing speed is also fast.

Curry raised the ball and shook it, but Li Ze was indifferent, continued to press the defense, and noticed that Li Ze was too close, Curry put the ball with his right hand after the dribble, and was just about to dribble through the cross-step when he heard the referee's whistle.

"Shh

Seeing the referee signal Curry to step on the sideline, the fans booed.

Reluctantly returning the ball to the referee, Curry was upset by Li Ze's pursuit.

“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”

In the Oracle Arena, the Warriors fans once again shouted for the home team's defense, with a 4-point difference, and they could overtake the score with two three-pointers!

The shouts of the fans played a role, and it was also a high block, and Speights stepped forward to help defend more resolutely.

Li Ze, who stepped on the three-point line and began to delay the breakthrough of the ball with his left hand, Jokic did not stand in place all the time as he did in the opening court, and this offense was a fake block.

After hanging for a while, the white fat man immediately went down, and before Speights and Clay were formed, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, shook his wrist, and the ball passed through Speights's right side.

The accurate ground-hitting pass made Jokic easily receive the ball, and Green also made the right defensive choice, letting go of Gallinari in the bottom left corner for the first time to help defend the basket.

Jokic, who rushed up in three steps, seemed to want to dunk, Green rose to block, and the moment the two were about to make contact, they didn't expect the white fat man to jump and pass.

The ball flew straight to the bottom left corner, and the unguarded Gallinari caught the ball and threw it!

"Huh!" Three-pointers hollow into the net.

Gallinari patted his chest after the goal and gave Jokic a thumbs up by the way, and he felt good tonight, hitting two three-pointers from the same position.

At 20:13, watching the point difference become 7 points, Luke Wharton, who was standing on the sidelines, was a little entangled, and finally chose to continue to host.

Curry couldn't score, and Klay first moved to the left block with the help of Harrison Barnes' cover in the three-second zone, and then quickly bounced to the left wing with Speights' cover.

Jokic realized the Warriors' offensive routine and switched the defense as soon as possible, and the confident Klay received a horizontal pass from Green at the top of the arc, and threw the ball as well!

The Warriors fans cheered, and then the ball hit the iron, and the long rebound just bounced to the right of the basket, and Li Ze grabbed in front of Curry and easily protected the backcourt rebound.

Luke Wharton immediately regretted it, shouting loudly to remind his players to retreat quickly, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, was very fast, and found that the Warriors had no delays and kept accelerating.

There was a mistake in the defensive alignment, and Curry was forced to defend in front of Lee.

After the halfway line, Curry immediately chose to stick to the defense and let Li Ze slow down, and Jokic didn't block at this time, standing honestly under the basket, waiting to grab the rebound.

Li Ze, who held the ball in his left hand, came to the logo position and slowed down slightly in the face of Curry's defense.

Noticing that Curry lowered his center of gravity, stood with his feet parallel, and tried to reach out to interfere, Li Ze suddenly changed direction under his crotch and shook his body to the right The moment he dribbled under his crotch again.

Two large crotch dribbles, just attacking Curry's defensive support feet, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, accelerated again with a low center of gravity, and instantly passed Curry's defense.

There were also Li Ze's fans in the Oracle Arena, and there was a lot of cheers for a while, and Curry was already stunned and desperately slid to the left rear.

Li Ze, who had just dribbled past the three-point line, aimed at Curry's defensive movements, quickly crossed and pulled back, and instantly shook out two positions.

Curry was in the three-point line at the top of the arc, completely unable to defend, and watched Li Ze shoot an easy jumper.

"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!

Li Ze, who completed the goal, smiled and raised his right hand and raised three fingers, and his favorite at the moment is this kind of semi-conversion opportunity except for the fast break score.

The wonderful shaking three-pointer instantly made cheers and boos in the Oracle Arena at the same time, the Warriors fans broke the defense a little, and Curry was shaken stupid this round.

At 23:13, the difference was just 10 points.

Completely out of custody, Luke Wharton immediately called for a timeout, and the interim head coach regretted that he should have called a timeout sooner.

On the Clippers bench, the atmosphere group cheered and high-fived Li Ze who walked to the sidelines in celebration.

Norman Powell watched the blood boiling, eager to immediately go on the court to shoot a few shots, Connaughton felt the cheers of the away, envy eyes were green, this is a superstar!

Kevin Rooney, the keeper of Li Ze's kettle, saw the big guy sitting down and immediately handed over the kettle.

"Don't be too anxious, Kevin, trust me and you'll get your chance."

Li Ze naturally saw Rooney's envious gaze, and comforted the 14th man of the current team with a smile.

On the Warriors' bench, Luke Wharton felt that the situation was so tricky for the first time that he couldn't think of a good way to limit the Clippers' offense.

Let go of the opponent's three-pointer? Let Li Ze continue to play singles?

The players were a little surprised to hear that the coach only talked about chicken soup and not about tactical adjustments.

Curry was not in a high mood, was chased by Li Ze on the offensive end, and occasionally had the opportunity to hold the ball, and the Clippers wrapped it up after changing defenses.

The first half of the game was smooth, but in just over two minutes, the form on the court changed dramatically.

After 14:13, the Clippers scored 9 points in a row, and Curry was a little dissatisfied with the reaction of the coaching staff, but as the boss of the team, he could only keep clapping and continue to encourage his teammates.

For the rest of the first quarter, the Warriors' offense was more patient, with the exception of Klay's wayward jumper, most of which were inside offense.

This time the Warriors attacked, Curry on the left wing was delayed by Gallinari, and Li Ze was chasing behind him.

In the case of a front and back attack, the left wrist flicked, and the dashing back hit the ground and passed to Green at the top of the arc.

After the latter received the ball, there was no one in front of him, adjusted slightly, and immediately jumped and shot!

"Bang!"

Jokic and Speights tangled under the basket, and the long rebound bounced off just before being picked up by Lee, who was back in the paint.

Green cursed in his heart and immediately stepped forward to delay, while everyone on the Warriors quickly retreated.

Li Ze, who received the rebound, did not rush too fast, holding the ball in his left hand and protecting the ball steadily, while observing the defensive position on the court.

Harrison Barnes reacted quickly and was the first to get in front of Gallinari.

As soon as Li Ze dribbled past halftime, Jokic trotted all the way and came to the three-point line again to block and dismantle.

Green took aim at Jokic's position and shouted a loud reminder to Speights as he prepared to pinch Li Ze back and forth.

Pretending to break through on the left side, Li Ze just raised the center of gravity of his body, and suddenly wrapped around the ball behind his back, and while shaking his body to the right, he adjusted his steps and quickly circled the ball behind his back again.

Green was completely shaken off by the sudden shake, and then wanted to chase after Li Ze, and suddenly crashed into Jokic.

Speights subconsciously delayed, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, quickly pushed the ball to change direction, and then passed between Speights and Jokic.

The audience at the scene saw Li Ze instantly connecting the two, and cheers and exclamations sounded at the same time.

Li Ze rushed into the paint area, noticed that Speights still did not give up the defense, was desperately chasing the defense, slowed down slightly in the process, and immediately made a layup at the moment when the opponent came up.

After jumping with his right foot, Li Ze dodged Speights' block in the air, carried the opponent's defense, tilted his body, and threw the ball to the basket!

"Squeak!"

"Huh"

After landing on the ground, Speights heard the referee's whistle, turned his head and saw the ball fall into the basket, noticed Li Ze looking at him with a smile, and immediately realized that it was intentional

"I didn't hit him in the arm at all! How can this be a foul? ”

Speights couldn't hold back, he was a little emotional, and immediately complained loudly to the linesman, but the referee simply explained that he had violated Li Ze's cylinder by pressing down on his arm.

"Hell, Star Whistle!"

Speights, who broke the defense, whispered another complaint, and his backhand was given a T by the linesman.

“Referee sucks! Referee sucks! Referee sucks! ”

In the Oracle Arena, Warriors fans were very unhappy with the decision and began to yell at the referee.

Li Ze smiled and made two free throws in a row, and while the free throws were taken, Ingles continued to applaud outside the three-point line, which made the Warriors fans boo.

Losing his offensive rhythm, Luke Wharton didn't recover some points until he switched to the bench and the Warriors recovered some of the difference.

At 34:23, the first quarter ended, and the Warriors, who were in hot form in the previous games, ended up trailing the Clippers by 11 points.

After Stephen Curry was substituted, he wore a towel and watched his teammates struggling to score points.

1 of 1 in the first quarter, Curry only scored 5 points in the first quarter.

The thought that if the Warriors lose tonight, the Warriors' record this week will be the same as the Clippers' to 3-1, Curry feels extremely aggrieved:

"Obviously playing good numbers, you won't lose Player of the Week again this week, right?"
