Chapter 149: The Contest Between Stars
Zhou Yang's goal annoyed Anthony.
Not only shook me away, but also threw in a super long three-point, the little melon couldn't bear it!
The Nuggets attacked, Anthony stood outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle, reached for the ball, and Billups had to pass it to him again.
Anthony faced Jackson and was just about to fight singles, when Zhou Yang suddenly ran over and shouted to Jackson: "I'm coming!" ”
These two are on the bar!
Wonderful game!
Nuggets head coach Karl looked solemn, he actually didn't want Anthony to play alone all the time, but there was no way, Anthony was the absolute core of the team, and if he wanted to play like this, he could only do it.
That's the difference between a star and a star.
Some stars are willing to obey the coach's arrangement, let them do whatever they want, and will not make their own decisions.
But some of the stars have a lot of personality and everything has to revolve around me.
These two styles of play are not familiar with each other, because there are only five players in a basketball game, and the ability of the star can really affect the trend of the game.
If the star is crazy and how to shoot, then even if he puts himself above the team, there is nothing wrong with it.
Anthony was happy when he saw Zhou Yang change in front of him!
It just so happens that you're the one who hits!
Zhou Yang clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Give you a chance, don't say that I am avoiding you!" ”
"Hmph, less nonsense!"
Anthony shouted angrily, and then wanted to make a dry three!
His height has an advantage, so he wants to rely on his absolute height to beat Zhou Yang!
However, Anthony ignored the speed at which Zhou Yang cut the ball.
At the moment when Anthony closed the ball, Zhou Yang's left hand cut up like lightning.
Syllable!
The little melon did jump, but the ball stayed.
Embarrassed.
It's embarrassing!
After breaking the ball, Zhou Yang immediately launched a counterattack.
Although Billups chased hard, he was too old and couldn't keep up with Zhou Yang.
Bang!
Tomahawk Split!
The Nuggets are at home again, and it's quiet again.
This is the effect that Zhou Yang wants, he must suppress the momentum at home and make the Warriors players full of confidence.
Sure enough, in the next few rounds, the Nuggets players were a little wilted, and the Warriors players worked hard as if they had played chicken blood.
The Warriors played 9 minutes and 26 seconds in the first quarter, leading by 5 points.
23:18!
Zhou Yang was not careless, he saw that although his teammates played well and worked hard, their physical strength was also very fast.
Altitude sickness is too obvious.
D'Antoni also saw it, and hurriedly called a timeout, to change the substitute lineup to come on, and let the main team rest for a while.
Not to mention the players, D'Antoni stood for a while, and felt stuffy in his chest, and had to sit down and catch for a while.
Zhou Yang is actually very uncomfortable, but he knows that this is a playoffs, and it is an away game, and he, as the core of the Warriors, has to grit his teeth and hold on.
After coming off the bench, the Nuggets began to chase points, and Watson was obviously affected by the plateau and couldn't get up to speed.
After a quick attack, he gasped for air.
Every time I come to the Nuggets away from home, it's like this, and the coach can't help it.
At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors were overtaken by 1 point, 27:28.
D'Antoni felt that this would not work, and if the difference was widened in the second quarter, it would be difficult to chase in the second half.
He looked at Zhou Yang, who and Curry had already stood up.
"Coach, I'll play and let Stephen rest for a while."
Zhou Yang knew that Curry's altitude sickness was also very strong and he couldn't fight for too long.
Curry wanted to say something, but D'Antoni followed Zhou Yang's advice and let Curry continue to rest, and Zhou Yang appeared.
Zhou Yang came on and replaced Novak.
Shooter Morrow, who didn't feel good today, just received two passes from Toliver, and they were all iron.
After Zhou Yang came on the court, the Warriors players were in high spirits and felt that they had a backbone.
Watson seems to have developed a passion too.
Zhou Yang did not have the ball as a substitute for his teammate, so he let Watson continue to hold the ball and run without the ball by himself.
Watson took advantage of Randolph's cover to reach the penalty area, attracting the defense of two interior players and distributing the ball to Zhou Yang, who ran to the right.
Zhou Yang shot at the speed of light, huh!
Two point hit!
This is the role of Zhou Yang, get points when you play!
The Nuggets have a nerve knife player off the bench, JR Smith, who has a strong ability to cut points, and when his hand is smooth, he is unstoppable!
In his previous life, many Chinese fans were familiar with him, because he also came to China CBA to play for a season during the NBA shutdown season.
When he saw that Zhou Yang had scored, he was not convinced, and in the next round, he would return the favor.
That's the character of JR, it's tough.
Zhou Yang saw it and immediately commanded his teammate Reggie to see JR to death and not give him a chance to make a move.
Reggie is a defensive giant, and under his defense, JR has a difficult shot, and finally throws it out, and it is also a lot off.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Yang and Watson played two fast breaks, and both scored.
With Zhou Yang, the offense of the substitute is sharper.
In this parallel world, only Zhou Yang knows that with Watson as the core, he will fight smoothly.
After five minutes in the second quarter, the Warriors took an eight-point advantage.
Anthony couldn't sit still again, and he asked for the ball again.
Karl, the head coach of the Nuggets, looked at Zhou Yang hatefully and muttered: "I don't believe it, you kid can play 40 minutes?" ”
With a wave of the handsome flag, the main force of the Nuggets reappeared.
D'Antoni is not in a hurry, he sees that the Warriors bench seems to have survived the difficult period just now, and now his physical strength is okay.
Zhou Yang's condition is also good, but Watson is a little too consumed, and the coach only replaced him with Margeti.
As soon as Anthony came up, he named Zhou Yang again, and he had to fight one.
Nuggets head coach Karl looked helpless, when he was down just now, he had already told Anthony not to compete with Zhou Yang.
But Anthony's personality is like this, he will do it if he is not convinced.
As a result, in the face of Zhou Yang's defense, Anthony made another mistake in dribbling.
After Zhou Yang broke the ball, Anthony almost snatched the ball back, Zhou Yang was quick, took the lead, and dialed the ball to teammate Margeti.
Margeti started quickly, counter-attacked, and passed to Morrow, who was inserted on the right.
Moreau didn't feel good in the second half of the first quarter, so he cut back on his shots in the second quarter.
This time there was a fast break opportunity, he didn't hesitate, followed the example of Zhou Yang and Curry, and chased down the three-point shot!
Swish!
I was hit too!
The Nuggets players were shocked, what's going on? The Warriors dare to throw three points!
Shouldn't this ball go on a fast break, or fall into a positional battle?
Zhou Yang roared loudly, pounced over and high-fived Mo Luo and shouted: "Just throw it like this, if you can't throw it, it's mine!" ”
Moreau was immediately in good spirits.
All a shooter needs is confidence.
At this level in the NBA, let alone a shooter, even Howard, who usually feels iron, scored three points when he was training.
