Chapter 553
George's pure physical talent is the best among the ten players on the field. He accelerates in the frontcourt, turns around 360 degrees and dunks!
Showtime!
98-93!
Steve Kerr stood on the sidelines, looking at George who retreated amid the boos, his expression was calm, but his heart was turbulent.Xu Tian was already difficult enough, but he didn't expect that George would also dream of returning to the Pacers, which made him even more headache.
Curry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, faced Xu Tian's defense, and moved laterally to find space.
Xu Tian's eyes were a little sharper than before. He stared intently at Curry who was dribbling the ball, lowered his center of gravity, and was ready to fight with his body at any time.His flexibility is worse than Curry, and he still has to make good use of his advantages.
Curry tried to break through, and hit Xu Tian who was like a wall twice, but failed to complete the pass.
The offensive time kept passing, which made him make up his mind to throw another three-pointer against Xu Tian's defense!
The basketball flew into the air, attracting everyone's attention!
BANG!
98-96!
Chris Webber asked: "Reggie, do you think the Lakers should double-team Steph?"
Reggie Miller said with a smile: "I think it can be considered. The two most offensive threats of the Warriors are Stephen and Clay. The offensive threats of the rest of the players are not particularly great. You can try this defense."
Chris Webber said: "I think it may not be that the Lakers didn't expect it, but that they didn't want to use it."
Xu Tian bypassed three screens in the front court, went to the top of the left arc without the ball, received a pass from Clarkson, turned around to face Iguodala's defense, and shot decisively!
Answer ball!
101-96!
Xu Tian opened his arms to greet the boos of the fans.He always felt that this sound made his blood boil more than cheers.
Reggie Miller smiled and said: "Okay! I think what you said is right. Xu is a player with a distinctive personality and is never afraid of challenges. Even if there is news that he refuses the coaching staff's tactics of double-teaming Stephen, I don't think so. It won't come as a surprise."
Chris Webber said: "When Tim Duncan was first selected by the San Antonio Spurs, he declared to the fans that he would win big and win big, while Xu said he would sweep the league". There was a lot of criticism."
"Before Tim entered the league, almost everyone realized how good he was. Xu Ke didn't have that obvious strength." Reggie Miller said, "I don't know when it started, Xu, who was like a clown, In an instant, he became a superstar, and what he once said became rhetoric, not farce."
"It should be the All-Star Game." Chris Webber recalled.
Reggie Miller nodded and said: "He won three awards in the All-Star, and then the media changed the direction of his reports and started to build momentum for him to compete for the regular season MVP. It seems that since then, almost everyone has started Classify Xu as a historical rookie and become a superstar in one fell swoop."
During the conversation between the two commentators, Curry attracted the Lakers' three-man defense and passed the ball to Klay Thompson who ran out of the three-point line on the right.
George was delayed by Draymond Green and couldn't catch up in time!
Klay Thompson took off on the spot and made a direct three-pointer!
Showdown of top shooters!
BANG!
101-99!
Scott saw the abnormally focused expression on Xu Tian's face, did not call a timeout, and then let the game continue.Now that both sides feel hot, there is no need to break the momentum.
George dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, faced Iguodala at the top of the arc to defend, and called for a pick-and-roll tactic.
Xu Tian quickly ran over to form a solid screen and let the Warriors switch defenses.
Klay Thompson switched on George, thinking he was going to start the offense.
George crossed the ball to Xu Tian who was standing on the right.
The Lakers' offense changed so fast that the Warriors' defensive formation could not be adjusted in time, and Iguodala could only defend Xu Tian alone.
Xu Tian changed direction forward and made a breakthrough on the right side, forcing Iguodala to recover defensively, retreated and jumped back to outside the three-point line, took off quickly, and shot directly!
Shooter duel, three points back!
104-99!
There are many Chinese fans in the Oracle Arena, and they can't help but cheer for the goal.
Steve Kerr held his belt with his hand, saw Scott's expression was calm, and there was no panic, and let the game continue.He has two shooters under him, so he doesn't necessarily lose to Xu Tian.
Curry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, let his teammates pull away, held the ball at the top of the arc, and was ready for a singles.
Xu Tian lowered his center of gravity, focused on every movement of Curry, tried to react in advance, and blocked Curry's attack.
Curry dribbled the ball and used the rhythm to break through. With Xu Tianyu defending from his side, he directly hit the penalty area, passed McGee's defense, picked the basket with his left hand, and hit the board high!
Xu Tian took off behind him and sealed the ball on the backboard!
The referee whistled and punished Xu Tian for defending the ball!
104-101!
Xu Tian grabbed the basketball with one hand and handed it to the baseline referee.
Josh Smith stepped out of the baseline, received the pass, and served to Clarkson.
Almost all of the Warriors' defensive arrangements were aimed at Xu Tian and George, and they didn't take enough care of Clarkson, allowing him to easily dribble to the frontcourt.
Clarkson held the ball at the top of the frontcourt and saw the Warriors' defensive formation being torn apart by Xu Tian and George. He dribbled through and hit the penalty area with the ball!
The Warriors claim to be a small lineup of five, and they rotate quickly to block Clarkson's breakthrough route.
Xu Tian took the opportunity to run to the left corner and shouted at Clarkson to attract his attention.
The Warriors players also heard the shouts, rushed over quickly, and jumped to defend!
Xu Tian took advantage of the fact that the Warriors players were not in place, seized the opportunity of a few tenths of a second, and shot confidently!
Swish!
My three-point sword is the flames of hell!
107-101!
Steve Kerr was a little overwhelmed, but decided to wait and see if the players could respond.
Curry dribbled the ball to the front court, and immediately encountered Xu Tian's full of confrontational defense. It was very difficult to dribble, so he could only try to retreat.It's a pity that I didn't pay attention to my feet. I stepped on the center line with my left foot, and it was a violation to return to the field!
Steve Kerr called a timeout to adjust his offensive and defensive tactics.
Chris Webber said: "I didn't expect the Warriors and the Lakers to attack, and it turned out that the Lakers had the upper hand."
Reggie Miller said: "Compared to Stephen and Clay, Xu's stability is better. This kind of three-point shooting efficiency is really amazing."
"Reggie, are you confident that you can beat Xu?"
"It's not a player of the same generation, it's best not to compare." Reggie Miller didn't respond positively and changed the subject.
Xu Tian drank two sips of sports drink, briefly wiped off the sweat on his body, and stood quietly on the sidelines to see what tactics Scott arranged.
Steve Kerr spoke emotionally for a long time, and finally let the players cover for Klay Thompson and Curry, trying to fight back on the offensive end.He knew very well that Xu Tian hadn't played offense with the ball before. Once the critical moment came, and Xu Tian played a solo single, it would be difficult for them to restrain him.
