Chapter 287: Enter hand-to-hand combat
Zhou Yang's physical exertion is also very large, because he has to constantly assist in defense and fill the position.
Terry was in his pursuit, shooting 2-of-5 from the field, which was decent.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Zhou Yang went to rest, Livingston, Tony Allen, Turiaf, Randolph, and Toliver came on.
This squad doesn't have many offensive points, but it's strong defensively.
Especially Tony Allen, as soon as he came up, he followed Terry closely and made Terry very uncomfortable.
The two sides engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat, the score was very low, and it was difficult to even shoot.
Fortunately, Livingston has a height advantage, and the ecstasy shooting efficiency is very high.
The second quarter played more than 3 minutes, and the score came to 42:40, and the Warriors still led by 2 points.
The elder Nelson waved his handsome flag and replaced him with Curry.
Curry replaced Toliver, and after coming on the court, he played a pick-and-roll with Livingston and made a three-point shot from a 45-degree angle.
Unfortunately, he missed, but Turiaf desperately grabbed the rebound in the front court and passed it to Curry.
This time Curry did not disappoint his teammates, hitting the three-point accurately!
With Curry on the outside, Livingston and Randolph had space and the bench began to score.
And Terry of the Mavericks was stuck like kraft candy by Tony Allen, which was very uncomfortable.
It's not that Tony Allen is better defensively than Zhou Yang, but that Zhou Yang has to participate in the offense while defending.
But Tony Allen can ignore the offense and only have Terry in his eyes.
"I said I only had you in my eyes!"
After Terry was restricted, the Mavericks bench offense was a bit of a problem.
Carlisle had no choice but to replace him with Barria again.
Barria also played well in the last series, and his outside combination with Terry was too good to shoot.
Terry was restrained, and Barria took on the role of outside shooter.
Swish!
There is a mountain in Puerto Rico, and I hit three points when I came up.
Curry chased down Barria, which was very difficult because Barry could drill.
The score continued to be stalemate, and neither side wanted to pull the score away.
The meat grinder-like game makes people depressed and breathless.
After more than 5 minutes in the second quarter, Zhou Yang appeared again, and Curry went down to rest.
On the Mavericks' side, they also changed the main force to the court again, Nowitzki, Marion, and Butler are all back.
Nowitzki regained his strength and was in great shape, and as soon as he came up, he was on his own, shooting one of Tekoglu.
Zhou Yang wanted to return the favor, but Marion and Butler were very fierce, and when he shot, Butler bumped into Zhou Yang's arm.
But the referee didn't blow the penalty, and the result was off the line.
Nelson Sr. was very dissatisfied with the referee and yelled loudly on the sidelines, and the referee was angry and gave him a T.
This technical foul seems to be a turning point.
After Nowitzki hit the free throw, the Mavericks suddenly got their hands on the spot, and the hit rate came up with a scratch.
On the warriors' side, no one can shoot, and the door is evil.
The Mavericks actually played a small climax of 13:4 in 4 minutes.
The game, which had been stalemate, was instantly pulled away by the Mavericks.
Old Nelson shook his head angrily and had to call a timeout.
The silence at Oracle Arena was shattered and fans were disappointed.
Zhou Yang felt the strength of the calf's bag, which was very strong.
Although the action is not very rough, the Mavericks' two bag players cooperate very well.
Obviously, these two should have practiced the bag clip specifically in training.
Generally speaking, bag clips are decided on an ad hoc basis.
No team will send two people to train on the bag technique.
However, Carlisle can do it.
That's just the way it is.
Carlisle asked Marion and Butler to spare one hour a day a long time ago to watch Zhou Yang's videos and study the tactics of trapping him.
In today's alliance, only Zhou Yang has this treatment.
During the timeout, the elder Nelson rarely did not get angry.
"Kids, focus a little more, we're the No. 1 team in the regular season, don't panic!"
Old Nelson had noticed that except for Zhou Yang, everyone else was indeed a little flustered.
That's inexperience.
The Warriors have this problem, playing when the score is leading or trailing.
But as long as it's stale, it won't be playing.
And Zhou Yang was very fierce just now, and he really couldn't get rid of it.
So now the Warriors are dangerous, and if they don't do it, they will be carried away by a wave.
Fortunately, this is the first half, and if it was the second half, it would really be broken.
Zhou Yang didn't speak, he had a lot of physical exertion.
After the timeout, players from both sides returned to the field.
Zhou Yang yelled at his teammates: "In the first half, we must close the difference to within 5 points!" ”
Now the score is 58:49 and the Mavericks have a nine-point lead.
The Warriors replied in unison, "Good! ”
Zhou Yang held the ball through the half, faced with the bag, he cautiously passed the ball to Tekoglu, and then ran to the bottom corner himself.
Butler and Marion almost held hands and surrounded Zhou Yang in the corner.
Turkoglu faced Nowitzki and broke through laterally.
Nowitzki didn't move as fast, but he had a lot of stride and could barely keep up.
Suddenly, Zhou Yang ran to the basket along the bottom line.
Marion quickly followed, and Butler rounded the guard from the other side.
Who knows, Zhou Yang actually stopped again, and then returned to the bottom corner.
This off-ball run fooled everyone.
Even the photographer on the sidelines was deceived, and Zhou Yang was suddenly absent from the lens, as if he had flashed.
Tekoglu waited for this opportunity and immediately passed the ball over.
Marion and Butler tried to pounce again, but it was too late.
Zhou Yang catches the ball and shoots, huh!
Three-point hit!
Warriors fans let out thunderous roars of excitement.
"Zhou Yang is really not easy, it is more difficult to catch a ball than for me to have a child!"
"Nonsense, what can you give birth to?"
"Zhou Yang's physical strength is really strong, he keeps running, and he can still throw."
……
The fans were excited, and the old Nelson also nodded repeatedly.
Zhou Yang's goal quickly boosted the morale of the Warriors players.
And the Mavericks' defense is starting to loosen.
The Mavericks attacked, and Turkoglu suddenly went around the front defense to prevent Nowitzki from receiving the ball.
Kidd watched it for a long time, but he couldn't pass it out, so he had to attack it himself.
Curry didn't give an inch, clinging to the defense, and at the moment when Kidd threw it, Curry even gave him a big hat.
This is Curry's character, everyone thinks he is a baby-faced and weak personality.
In fact, he is very grudgeful, and he is very hard!
The big hat was Kidd, and the ball was fanned directly into Chandler's hands, and Chandler made a long pass to Barbossa.
The Mavericks didn't react, the defense was very slow, and Brazil lightning went straight to the basket and easily scored 2 points!
With the efforts of the Splash Brothers, the Warriors quickly narrowed the gap to four points.
Carlisle smiled wryly on the sidelines, he found it really difficult to open up the gap with the Warriors.
Bang Bang chased 5 points twice, and the game time was less than 1 minute.
