Green's speed is not slow among the forward players, but it is only not slow, compared with Wang Chao, who is only strong and not weak compared to the guard, Green's speed is slow, and it is more than a little bit slower.

Green, who was already deceived by Wang Chao's feint of shooting, was in the front of the center, and he couldn't react at all in the face of Wang Chao's sudden change in ball-holding breakthrough, and when he came back to his senses and turned to chase Wang Chao, the latter had already rushed in.

At this time, the inside line of the Warriors is still standing Cousins.

Although Da Yao has the ability to shoot from a medium to long distance, after all, he is slightly lacking in stability, coupled with Wang Chao's previous gesture of pulling away, so Cousins is not too far away from the basket.

When he saw Wang Chao pass Green and rush to the basket in one step, he subconsciously greeted him to help his teammates defend.

But Cousins himself is not an interior center who is good at helping to defend with flexible feet, and before he has time to stand in a position in the reasonable confrontation area, Wang Chao has already rushed to the ground, and when the speed is completely up, he jumps directly in the free throw line, and the whole person soars into the sky.

Cousins subconsciously jumped up and tried to stop Wang Chao, but the moment he jumped up, he realized how terrifying Wang Chao's bounce height was.

In the jump ball link, there is no way to beat Da Yao, who has almost zero bounce and completely relies on the advantage of height and arm length, Cousins's bounce ability can be seen in general, and at this time, in front of him is a standard spring man who has a bounce ability value of 95.

At the moment of freezing in the air, it can be clearly seen that Wang Chao is a head taller than Cousins, and with the impact of the breakthrough, it is impossible to prevent this ball no matter what.

Cousins immediately realized this, and then subconsciously turned sideways, wanting to avoid Wang Chao, if he wants to dunk, dunk him, anyway, isn't it only 2 points?

But Cousins was still a little slow to wake up.

He was a little slow to choose the timing of his dodge, and the result was to dodge but not completely.

"Boom ——!" Wang Chao slammed the basketball into the basket with a tomahawk slam, and at the same time collided with Cousins in the air, and the whistle sounded immediately.

Due to the small size of the collision, Cousins only stumbled to the ground, but he was very upset to hear the whistle.

Depend on! I knew that I had dragged him down just now, and it was a foul anyway.

But I thought so in my heart, but the time of the lightning and fire just now was not allowed to be thought about too much, and the momentum of Wang Chao, who had already taken off, looked too exaggerated, and anyone wanted to avoid its edge at the first time.

After Wang Chao, who completed the dunk, landed, he deliberately glanced back at Green behind him.

"What about people? I thought you were asleep, that's it? Do you want to kill me? ”

Wang Chao's level of trash talk is not strong compared with Jordan, Kobe, Garnett and other masters, because he believes in the adage that people don't talk much, and he is better at using games and performances to defeat opponents.

However, in the face of Green, who took the initiative to provoke, Wang Chao would still fight back slightly, and it was after blowing up the other party.

Wang Chao, who has the talent of steel and iron bones, is not afraid of what small moves Green plays...... No, it should be on the premise of protecting his crotch, he will not be afraid of any excessive foul action, because he will hardly get injured in the ring.

Today, he's going to blow Green to the ground in the game, and let this guy know that the mouth cannon can't just be beaten casually.

The Warriors attacked, and after Curry dribbled across the halfcourt, he looked at Wang Chao standing in front of him, without the slightest idea of attacking by himself.

He decisively passed the ball to Green, who controlled the court, and then he and Thompson were on either side of the bottom corner, ready to run off the ball to get offensive opportunities.

This is also the most ruthless part of the Warriors this season, the two guards can get a lot of shots from beyond the three-point line with their off-ball running and covering, and Curry and Thompson's super high three-point shooting percentages can also ensure enough consistent three-point shooting.

At this moment, Curry had just stood in the bottom corner of the left three-point line, and immediately started to run.

Wang Chao followed closely behind Curry, and when the two passed through the restricted area, Cousins, who was standing under the basket, suddenly crossed half of his body, just between Wang Chao and Curry.

Covering without the ball, Cousins wants to help Curry get rid of Wang Chao's follow-up, even if it is only for a short time, it is enough for Curry to have time to run to the outside to catch the ball and then shoot a three-pointer.

Cousins and Curry have tried this trick countless times in the past games, and it can be said that they are very proficient, and the quality of Cousins' wide body blocking is quite good.

Cousins, who was in front of Wang Chao, had already stood firm, waiting for the impact of Wang Chao crashing into him, but the imaginary collision did not come, Cousins turned his head in surprise, but saw Wang Chao stop in front of him and make a sharp turn, actually bypassed from the other side, and chased Curry who had run outside the three-point line.

Screen prediction: When the attacker picks and dispenses, it can detect and predict in advance and take corresponding countermeasures.

This talent skill sounds a bit evil, but the actual effect is actually very simple, just like just now, when Curry slipped the bottom line and ran, Cousins was particularly conspicuous in Wang Chao's sight, and all kinds of small movements were clearly visible, and he wanted to help Curry block and cover when he saw the other party.

At the same time, Wang Chao can also notice Green's sight and posture holding the ball at the top arc outside the three-point line, and judge Curry's running position and Green's movement in advance according to Curry's running position.

This is not a difficult task for a player who has been a master of running without the ball.

Wang Chao, who had already judged Curry's running destination and Cousins' intention to block and cover in advance, directly chose to change the direction of his run in the middle and went straight to Curry's landing position.

When Curry made a quick run to the three-point line, Green's ball was immediately passed.

As a rule of thumb, Curry will shoot the ball immediately and put the basketball into the basket before the rest of the Rockets players can help defend him with his super-fast shooting speed.

However, Curry, who was already ready to receive the ball and immediately shot the basketball when he was waiting for it to arrive, did not wait for the basketball to arrive as scheduled.

Wang Chao suddenly came out from one side and intercepted Green's pass with the advantage of his reach!

Interceptor Talent: Enhances agility, speed, and steal ability when stealing passes, and provides a speed bonus after a steal.

Wang Chao, who completed the interception and steal, did not stop, and immediately rushed towards the backcourt of the Warriors, as fast as thunder.

The Warriors can only hold on to the defense, but the only one who can keep up with Wang's super speed is Green, who is closest to his own basket at the top of the three-point line.

Green, who quickly retreated to outside the three-point line, knew that he could not continue to retreat, with Wang Chao's speed and impact, if he couldn't stop it here, then the opponent would inevitably score the ball and even cause a defensive foul, making it 2+1.

Green, who decisively stopped, stepped forward directly to force Wang Chao, trying to stop Wang Chao with physical pressure.

The bodies of the two collided directly with each other in the rapid movement.

"Bang!"

Green's imaginary situation of forcing Wang Chao to stop did not happen, but a huge force surged through his chest, directly knocking him to the ground, and continued to slide backwards on the floor for a long distance with inertia.

Wang Chao's body was also violently shocked, but he stabilized his body and protected the basketball.

Green is already a blocking foul when defending, but the referee did not blow the whistle, perhaps because this is the home court of the Warriors and has the home whistle, or it may be that the referee saw that Wang Chao did not lose the ball, judging that he did not suffer in this confrontation, and did not blow the whistle for the sake of the fluency of the game.

Either way, Wang Chao, who had no defender in front of him, chose to continue to rush forward, and then smashed the basketball into the basket again with a big windmill dunk.

"Boom!"

In less than 40 seconds of the opening game, Wang Chao had already dunked two consecutive balls and ravaged the Warriors' basket.

The Warriors' home fans shouted loudly to vent their dissatisfaction, and some fans yelled at the referee on the sidelines to protest that Wang Chao had just been an offensive foul.

The offense and defense transitioned, the Warriors offense rounded, and the basketball was handed to Cousins on the inside.

Cousins singled out Da Yao, and his back arched a few times, completely unmoving.

His weight is actually not light, 2.11 meters tall is 122 kilograms, and he looks like a little fat man, but it is still a lot lighter than Da Yao, who is 134 kilograms.

Unable to squeeze Da Yao, Cousins was still not convinced, turned around and forced a layup in the face frame, but was slapped by Da Yao's hat.

The rebound was picked up by Leonard, and he immediately made a long pass to Wang Chao, which was a fast break to the extreme!

Wang Chao, who was running wildly with the ball, was caught by Green and Thompson this time.

Wang Chao was calm, first dribbling behind his back to avoid Thompson's steal, then a crotch change and a shake to deceive Green's center of gravity, and then stepped back and moved to the three-point line to shoot crisply, and the basketball went into the net.

"Brush ——!"

Again!

At the beginning of the game, Wang Chao scored 7 points in a row and beat the Warriors 7:0 in the opening game.

The Warriors called a timeout, and Kerr held the tactics board with a solemn face.

The Rockets, who are also a small-ball team, have far exceeded his expectations...... No, to be exact, it is Wang Chao's personal ability that is beyond imagination.

Green can be said to be the strongest defensive ability of the Warriors, but in the first few rounds of offense and defense, he had no way to prevent Wang Chao, and was frequently scored by the opponent, riding his face out.

Not only that, but the offensive end of the Warriors was also blocked, Curry's first no-ball run was predicted by Wang Chao in advance and completed the steal, and Cousins couldn't get any benefit from facing Da Yao in the single on the inside.

Difficult...... It's really hard!

Kerr sighed again and again in his heart and said to the players who came off the court: "We must avoid attacking the Rockets, don't be brought into his offensive rhythm by Wang Chao, and avoid meaningless transmission of the ball, they had two players last season who averaged more than 2 steals per game, and too many passes will only give them the opportunity to complete the steal and play the counterattack and fast attack, and we must take advantage of the physical fitness and injury potential ......of the opposing center Da Yao."

After the timeout, the Warriors replaced Barnes for Iguodala.

Obviously, they want to use Iguodala's defensive ability to form a linkage with Green to limit Wang Chao's scoring as much as possible.

On the offensive end, Curry once again stood in the bottom corner of the three-point line, but this time it was Thompson who was the Warriors' running strategy.

Thompson, who ran to the mid-range with the help of his teammates' cover, received a pass from Green and shot from the mid-range.

Butler, who was responsible for defending Thompson, was blocked by Cousins' pick-and-roll screen, and Da Yao couldn't go out to defend Thompson's mid-range shot due to his footwork.

"It's smart to take advantage of Da Yao's mobility weakness to attack, but Da Yao doesn't have a lot of time to play."

After scoring 7 points in a row at the beginning, Wang Chao suspended his ball-holding offense, but frequently hoisted the ball to Da Yao on the inside, playing the usual routine of the Rockets in the past.

Cousins couldn't stop Da Yao, which was a matter of course, so in the next 3 minutes, Da Yao shot 3 of 4 and scored 6 points.

During this period, the Warriors have also been taking advantage of Da Yao's shortcomings on the defensive end to score, but because of a 7:0 beating by Wang Chao in front, the Rockets have always been in the lead.

Halfway through the first quarter, Da Yao was substituted during a dead ball.

Seeing Da Yao go off the court, the Warriors couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Da Yao's loopholes on the defensive end are used by them to score frequently, but Da Yao's pressure on them on the offensive end is still too great, and the inside offense is not a joke, and the current league really does not have a center that can prevent Da Yao from scoring on the inside.

For a long time, whether in the NBA or the national team, the problem Da Yao has faced has never been the lack of offensive ability under the basket, but the problem of how he should receive the ball on the inside and his physical fitness.

The Rockets have been lacking quality guards in the past, not to mention the Huaguo men's basketball team, where opponents can unscrupulously defend Da Yao and prevent Da Yao from receiving the ball as much as possible.

The arrival of Wang Chao can be regarded as completely liberating Da Yao's offensive ability, but it is a pity that he did not meet Wang Chao's partner with excellent offensive ability and strong organizational ability in the years when he was at his peak, otherwise maybe Da Yao's performance would be stronger than the average of 25+9 per game in the 06-07 season.

Of course, these are just conjectures, Da Yao's strength is actually limited by his own fragile body and physical fitness, high-intensity games will make him very tired, and his ankle will be seriously burdened, so it is very easy to induce injuries.

Looking at the history of the NBA, any great star needs a healthy and strong body to play a great, long and brilliant career.

Straight to the point.

The Rockets, who replaced Da Yao, were sent with backup center Whiteside.

Today's Whiteside is completely the future god, averaging 7.2 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game while playing an average of 18 minutes per game in the previous game, and is the team's main interior center after Da Yao is off the court.

Although Whiteside's appearance made the Rockets lose the scoring points on the inside, the Warriors also didn't want to continue to take advantage of Da Yao's lack of mobility to score easily.
