NBA super small ball center

Wang Lang sat on the sidelines and watched Jokic discussing tactics with the Nuggets coach, which was very lively.

Both men are serious, constantly waving their fingers on the tactical board.

Wang Lang also knows that Jokic is still working on new tactics and strategies to find an opportunity to beat the Warriors.

After all, Curry and Thompson didn't play, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Jokic.

But even so, Jokic couldn't take the advantage and gave the Nuggets hope of winning.

Wang Lang is also guessing what Jokic will do.

At that moment, Green shouted: "Don't worry, Jokic is very smart, but he can't solve defensive problems, he's a very good offensive player, and he will become an offensive master in the future, but he can't be a defensive master."

"He's not as good as me in that regard, I'm a defensive guru now.

With that, Green patted his chest confidently.

Wang Lang knew what Green meant, but he still smiled: "Do you think Jokic can't solve the defensive problem? What if they choose to wrap me in the second half?"

Green shook his head: "It's useless, they've seen your passing, if they wrap you, the two of us will pass enough to make the Nuggets pay."

Wang Lang frowned: "It makes sense, but in this case, it will be a test of other people's feelings, I hope Livingston, Ian Clark, and Barnes can throw in."

Green is unfazed: "No problem, they're not stars, but they can shoot in open positions."

When Wang Lang heard this, he immediately thought of Barnes's three-point shot in the playoffs, which almost smashed the basket.

In addition, Iguodala's offensive ability is also very problematic, the breakthrough speed is not fast, and the offensive skills are not much, which is decent.

Only in the middle distance position, Iguodala is somewhat sure, but not consistent.

Wang Lang smiled bitterly because of this.

The second half of the game finally began, and both sides also sent their main lineups.

On the Warriors' side, there are still center Wang Lang, power forward Green, small forward Iguodala, scoring guard Ian Clark, and point guard Livingston.

It's also the Warriors' strongest lineup after Curry and Thompson were unavailable.

But Green and Iguodala's offensive ability is very limited, and the responsibility for the offense lies with Wang Lang and Livingston.

The Nuggets are center Jokic, power forward Gallinari, small forward Farid, scoring guard Gary Harris, and point guard Moodier, no different from the first half.

Nuggets fans were still enthusiastic, still chanting "Defend!" to cheer on the Nuggets.

The Warriors attacked, and Wang Lang dribbled to the frontcourt.

Standing in this position, he is not yet packed, but has also encountered Gallinari's close defense.

Gallinari did not choose to retreat and block the breakthrough like in the first half, but did his best to prevent Wang Lang from shooting.

Wang Lang immediately stepped past the person, broke through from the right side, and directly passed Gallinari.

But at this moment, Farid let Iguodala go, and Gallinari came one after the other.

Wang Lang's shot space and breakthrough space were blocked.

This also allowed Wang Lang to know the opponent's template, and used a series of fake passes, first pretending to pass to Iguodala, and then directly to Livingston.

This confuses the Nuggets' defense, making them think they were going to pass to Iguodala, all of which appeared in fake passing routes.

Livingston received the ball from mid-range, made a feint and shot straight to the basket.

Gary Harris couldn't stop it, so he could only stand there and shake his head.

The Warriors are 70-58 with a 12-point lead, and the margin is still widening.

Wang Lang's assists also came to 10, plus 35 points and 13 rebounds, and he really got a triple-double.

He happily high-fived Livingston, thankful that his teammates were good enough.

The Nuggets attacked, and Moodier dribbled to the perimeter.

Jokic still received the ball on the inside, turned his back to Wang Lang's defense, and made a turning move.

Wang Lang immediately moved laterally to block Jokic's layup.

But at this moment, Jokic suddenly passed the ball from behind and handed it to Gary Harris who ran behind him very covertly.

Immediately after, Jokic blocked on the spot, making it impossible for the defensive Livingston to keep up with the opposition.

Wang Lang didn't have time to make up for the defense, so he could only stand under the basket.

Gary Harris made a mid-range shot and scored with ease.

The Warriors were 70-60, and the score remained around 10 points.

The Nuggets also maintained the possibility of chasing points.

Wang Lang immediately understood that Jokic still had to make a fuss in the middle distance and create scoring opportunities.

He secretly admired.

In the next round, Wang Lang dribbled past Gallinari who defended him again and again, and then received the bag and passed it to his teammates.

Those opportunities also allowed Livingston to score on the field again and again, scoring 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting.

At the same time, Iguodala also found a dunk opportunity and received Wang Lang's arc ball for an empty dunk.

This makes Jokic, who has average bounce speed, difficult to defend.

As a result, Wang Lang added 6 assists, bringing the number of assists to 16.

In addition, he also grabbed 4 offensive rebounds and dunked directly on the spot, scoring 8 points.

Jokic is still no match for Wang Lang in terms of rebounding.

Wang Lang also got 17 rebounds, close to 20.

On the Nuggets' side, Gary Harris exploded with the help of Jokic, scoring 12 points and shooting 6-of-9.

Gallinari also made four three-pointers and scored 12 points.

The Warriors, on the contrary, had less offensive firepower in the absence of Curry and Thompson, and did not score more points in the third quarter than the Nuggets.

By the end of the third quarter, the Warriors were 90-84, narrowing the margin to six points.

Wang Lang also had 43 points, 17 rebounds and 16 assists.

Although Jokic helped his teammates score many times, his physical energy was also consumed a lot, and he constantly confronted Wang Lang on the inside, making Jokic out of breath.

Sitting on the bench to rest, Wang Lang also saw this.

He noticed Jokic wiping his sweat.

In the live broadcast room, O'Neal looked sympathetic: "It's a pity, if Jokic is in better shape, the Nuggets will really have a chance to compete with Wang Lang, but only without Curry and Thompson."

"Now Jokic has narrowed the score for the time being, but he is physically exhausted and unable to maintain offensive and defensive efficiency in the fourth quarter, which will make the Nuggets' offense problematic.

"But in front of super center Wang Lang, Jokic's performance is good enough.

Payton nodded: "The Nuggets didn't chase points through defense, but through offense, which also benefited from their constant efficiency in scoring from mid-range."

"But this makes them too physically exhausted, and in the fourth quarter, I think they don't even have the physical strength to quickly return to the defensive position, and the possibility of losing is also very high. "
