NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

The latest website: The outstanding performance of the Blazers' second team continued until the end of the first half.

Especially on the offensive end, Lillard and Aldridge ensured the team's basic scoring. Jokic served as a high-post lighthouse at the center position. His style of play was similar to that of Wang Zelin in the second season. The Blazers were on the court It's been a long time since I played the Princeton system.

Coupled with the two excellent outside forts of Connet Lee and Carter Sr., as long as there is an open opportunity, he basically never misses.

The impact of the Warriors in the second quarter can be said to be fierce. Curry and Thompson played for another 8 minutes and scored 23 points together. If Kerr was not worried about the physical problems of the two, I am afraid that the two of them would have played the entire first half.

It's a pity that with the excellent performance of the Blazers members, the Warriors couldn't even get close by a point!

The Warriors scored 35 points in a single quarter, and the offensive firepower of the fifth team was fully demonstrated, but the Blazers were not bad at all, and their overall performance was even better, with the team scoring 37 points in a single quarter.

69:57!

At the end of the first half, the Blazers further extended their lead to 12 points.

Facts have proved that the Warriors' mini-rotation is not necessarily more advantageous than the Trail Blazers' usual pass change.

Once again, the Golden State Warriors were crushed!

Weber looked at Cole who was nervously deploying tactics and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "This may be the most difficult 10 points for the Jingzhou Warriors to equalize this season!"

After returning from the first half of the game, Curry and Thompson gradually adapted to the Trail Blazers. Even in the face of an unlimited defensive lineup led by Wang Zelin, they could maintain a good shooting percentage.

But even so, the Warriors still couldn't take advantage of the Blazers.

Blazers No. 36's lethality at the basket has refreshed people's perception time and time again. He can always stage a good show of single-handedly challenging the Warriors to three consecutive defenders in the penalty area.

As the game progressed, Cole's disadvantages of playing the main force for two consecutive games finally surfaced.

In such a fierce opportunity, the seven-man rotation lineup must have advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that the speed of the team is faster, and the cooperation between the players is also very skilled. As long as they catch an opportunity, they can quickly trigger a snowball effect, continuously expand the score, and may even take away the game in a wave.

The disadvantage is that it is a big challenge to the players' physical fitness, and fierce games often increase the chance of players being injured.

After all, the seven-man rotation is not a long-term solution. One or two games is okay, but it can't be like this every game!

Generally speaking, in order to ensure that the core players have enough time to rest and adjust, the team must increase the number of rotations.

After all, the playoffs are not short, and the intensity of the game is much higher than the regular season. On this level of stage, the two sides of the game are not only a competition of strength and tactics, but also a competition of rotation.

Take the present as an example. After the frantic squeeze in the last high-intensity game, Cole repeated his old tricks tonight, trying to drag the Blazers to death with the mobility of the five minors.

But this time, Cole shot himself in the foot. Because the Trail Blazers' big and four small lineups are no less mobile than the Warriors, and Coach Terry dared to play five ups and downs to ensure the physical fitness of the starting players.

In this way, the Blazers' high-intensity defense has been maintained, but for the Warriors, with the possible decline of the main force, open long-range shots from outside the three-point line began to hit iron, and the offensive efficiency inevitably declined.

As for the Blazers' offense, Wang Zelin's presence is enough to ensure the team's offensive firepower. By the 10th minute of the third quarter, he had already scored the 30th point of the game!

On both ends of the offense and defense, the Blazers have done a pleasing job. As the game deepened, Warriors coach Steve Kerr's heart slowly fell to the bottom.

In order to avenge last year and for the team's dream of a championship, he has prepared for a full year. He is confident that after the Warriors win the championship this season, he will bring subversive changes to the entire league.

Not only is the Warriors replacing the Trail Blazers as the new rulers of the league, but it is also necessary to complete a new round of evolution in the entire league's style of play.

The backward era where the center forward was the core to win the championship, and the offensive end could only rely on the center forward to fight in the position, slowly chipping through the opponent to score points should have been eliminated long ago, and the era of the three-point king should be next!

But now? The five small lineups he is proud of seem to be less effective. Sometimes being suppressed everywhere, it seems that there is a big deviation, but it cannot be balanced anyway.

8 points, 9 points, 10 points, 11 points... In the third quarter, the difference between the two teams has been hovering between these numbers.

In the last few seconds of the third quarter, when Wang Zelin used a beautiful hook near the free throw line, facing the three-person defense of Green, Iguodala and Thompson, the buzzer hooked the ball into the basket and successfully opened the score. At 13 minutes, Cole closed his eyes in despair.

In order to restrain Wang Zelin, he has taken advantage of the way in this game. After every timeout, he thought that his adjustment should be effective.

But without exception, what he will always gain is only disappointment.

When disappointment accumulates too much, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, which inevitably turns into despair!

…

131:120!

At the end of the final whistle, the Trail Blazers relied on the unlimited defense certificate to suppress the Warriors all the way, and finally defeated their opponents by 11 points, and made another victory.

After this game, the big score of the series between the two sides came to 3 to 1, and the Trail Blazers had already held the match point.

In the next game, the battlefield of the two sides will move to Portland. The Trail Blazers only need to win another game at home, and they will be able to eliminate the Warriors and enter the Finals for three consecutive years.

The long-awaited dynasty dream is one step closer to them.

Seeing the Blazers celebrating crazily not far away, and Wang Zelin who scored 36 points, 15 rebounds and 10 blocks efficiently in just 31 minutes tonight, the Warriors were all silent, and the main players were even more silent. Confused about what's next in the series.

Including the handshake after the game, Cole forgot how the whole process was done?

But fortunately, Cole is a coach with an extremely strong heart after all.

After the game, he asked the management to notify the media in advance that the Warriors canceled the post-game interview today.

Oracle Arena.

After the opponents and fans dispersed, Cole brought all the Warriors players back to the arena to focus on training.

When Curry and Thompson stood still, he immediately conveyed his tough attitude to the players~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In this round of the series, he asked everyone to hold on to the last moment no matter what.

"It's not time to give up, it's not time to admit defeat! After a whole season of hard work, we have been crushed by the Blazers! From second in the regular season to second in MVP votes, we have always been the **** second Name! Always the **** number one loser!"

"Please remember, this is our last chance to win against the Trail Blazers this season. No matter what, we have to fight until the last moment! Believe me, the goddess of victory will definitely favor the warriors who never give up!"

"So, all the warriors here! Please keep your desire for victory, and let us go to Portland to continue fighting in three days' time!"

Cole slammed the tactical board to the floor and roared loudly. He had already fought to this point, and he could no longer help the team make changes at the tactical level.

The only thing we can do now is to boost morale as much as possible!
