Chapter 299: The Battle of Tianwang Mountain with the Calf
The Mavericks' starting lineup became, Nowitzki, Haywood, Terry, Marion and Butler.
The Warriors retained the lineup from the third quarter of the last game, Zhou Yang, Curry, Tony Allen, Chandler and Turkoglou.
Although Butler is restricted, as long as Terry and Nowitzki are turned on, the pressure on Butler will naturally decrease, and maybe it will be able to explode.
Jumping the ball in the middle circle, Chandler grabbed the first wave of possession.
Zhou Yang dribbled past half court, and in the face of the bag, he passed the ball to Tekoglu.
The agent confronted Nowitzki and called Chandler over to cover.
After changing guards, the agent singled Heywood and stepped back to shoot!
Swish!
Turkoglou's performance in this series was average, mainly because he played against Nowitzki and couldn't take advantage.
So before the game, Nelson Sr. encouraged him to play a few misplaced and try his touch.
Now it seems that the agent is in good shape.
3:0!
The Warriors fans erupted in an earth-shattering roar, and the momentum of the Devils' home court was too terrifying.
Mavericks offense.
Nowitzki received the ball, faced the bag and passed it to Terry.
It was Curry who defended Terry, Haywood stepped forward to axe Curry, and Terry took advantage of the cover to shoot three points!
Boom!
The idea is good, but it is off.
Some players are like that, you let him play as a substitute, his performance is explosive, as long as he comes up, he can make meritorious contributions.
But when you put it in the starting lineup, you can't play that effect.
Of course, this is only the first shot, and it doesn't say much.
Chandler grabbed the rebound, made a long pass, and passed it to Curry.
Curry passed half the court, and he was also a three-point chase, huh!
Splash brothers, the waves are overflowing!
6:0!
After the Warriors returned to their home court, they were full of momentum, two three-pointers, and they all hit!
The Mavericks panicked a bit.
The terrifying thing is that before Zhou Yang could make a move, the others threw away.
How is this game played?
Carlisle's face turned pale, and he didn't know what to say.
Mavericks offense.
Terry held the ball past half of the pitch and, when he saw Nowitzki asking for the ball, immediately passed it.
Zhou Yang and Tekoglu continued to wrap up.
Nowitzki has no intention of passing, he has to score!
Scold!
Nowitzki didn't dare to dribble from Zhou's side, and he squeezed past Turkoglu to seek a breakthrough from his side.
Zhou Yang hurriedly walked around, intending to break Nowitzki's ball.
But Nowitzki was prepared, he actually didn't plan to break through, after squeezing half a body, he directly collected the ball and shot!
At this time, Turkoglu's arm was still entangled with Nowitzki, and the referee's whistle blew when he made a shot.
Honk!
It's really a treacherous man, and the horse is slippery!
Nowitzki's move turned out to be a porcelain, very similar to Harden's style later!
Swish!
At the same time as the referee's whistle blew, the ball was thrown!
The old driver's feel is really soft.
2+1!
The Mavericks players and coaches breathed a sigh of relief and finally scored.
Tekoglu looks innocent, but there is no way, who can't let you escape?
The silver horn king added a penalty hit, and the score came to 6:3!
Warriors offense.
Zhou Yang saw that his teammates were in good shape, so he was willing to be a green leaf and used himself to create opportunities for his teammates.
He himself took two defenders and ran into the bottom corner.
Turkoglou took the ball and called for cover again, trying to hit Hywood.
But this time Nowitzki quickly squeezed through the screen, and Turkoglu had to pass the ball to Curry.
Curry saw Tony Allen suddenly cut into the box and hurriedly passed the ball.
Tony Allen's fast break was okay, cutting directly to the basket, and he still couldn't play when he met Haywood's help defense.
Syllable!
Heywood fanned the ball out with a big hat.
Coincidentally, it landed right next to Curry.
Curry picked it up, didn't even look at the basket, and just threw it out.
The main thing is that the attack time is almost 24 seconds.
Swish!
It's really in!
The audience burst into cheers again.
Curry laughed himself, shook his head repeatedly, and spread his hands outstretched.
Zhou Yang also couldn't stop laughing, and came over to celebrate with him!
"Bullie, Stephen!"
"It's okay, Meng!"
"A few more, and we can clock out and get off work!"
……
The mentality of the Warriors players has completely relaxed, and they are playing better and better.
9:3, the Warriors got off to a dream start.
Mavericks offense.
Nowitzki's face was solemn, and he felt the pressure on his shoulders mount.
It was too difficult for the rest of the Mavericks to score.
Terry mentioned the start, and it turned out to be cold to the touch.
Nowitzki received the ball and faced the bag, he held it high and didn't move, but gave Terry a look.
Terry immediately ran off the ball and towards the bottom right corner.
Curry was in hot pursuit, and Marion stood up early and blocked Curry.
Terry quickly got into the bottom corner and Nowitzki passed the ball over.
This time Terry didn't disappoint Nowitzki, three-point shot, hit!
Carlisle let out a sigh of relief, and Terry finally got on.
This point is open and too important for the Mavericks.
9:6!
Warriors offense.
Zhou Yang dodged in the bottom corner again, but he ran back, killed near the paint area, received a pass from Tekoglu, shook it, and then quickly moved sideways and hit a jumper!
After scoring 2 points, Zhou Yang quickly returned to defense.
He knew that after the Mavericks Terry opened, he would definitely play fast.
Sure enough, Terry was faster than Curry, and after half court, Haywood served a baseline ball, a long pass, throughout the whole process, directly to Terry.
Although Zhou Yang reacted quickly, Terry was small and too flexible after all, after receiving the ball, he hit the basket and picked up the basket to score another 2 points!
In less than 20 seconds, Terry scored five points in a row!
At 11:8, the Warriors led by 3 points.
In the next few rounds, the Mavericks' offense slowly opened up, and Butler also took advantage of the cover and shot a three-pointer.
The scores of the two sides began to stalemate.
Warriors fans were a little disappointed, they thought the Warriors would take the Mavericks in waves.
But the Mavericks are too strong today, and it will be too difficult to take it easily.
Terry mentioned starting and did activate the attack.
Zhou Yang remembered that before the crossing, Terry's performance in the finals really made people break out in a cold sweat.
Could it be that Terry today will be the one who will change the tide of the war again?
Curry was a little annoyed, he really couldn't guard Terry.
Although Terry has an average three-point point with the ball, his ability to run without the ball and shoot when he catches the ball is really strong and has a big heart.
It's a lot like Pinnacle Ray Allen.
Fortunately, the Warriors' offensive firepower can also be continued, so Nelson Sr. did not call a timeout, and let the two sides attack.
Anyway, the team with the Splash Brothers is the least afraid to attack.
If you have the ability, you will keep bombarding until the fourth quarter and see who can have the last laugh!
With 5:38 left in the first quarter, the score came to 17:16, and the Warriors only led by one point.
This score is very high, which shows that the hit rate of both sides is not low, and the hand is hot.
It's hard to imagine that this was a battle of Tianwang Mountain.
It is said that there is no good game in a tough battle, but today's performance of the two teams is very exciting and highly enjoyable!
