The Basketball Court Swordsman
Chapter 547: : The possibility of a turnaround
Klay Thompson scored 23 points in a single quarter and the Warriors scored 42 points in a single quarter...If a game allows the Warriors to play such a historic offense, it is almost impossible for the Warriors to do so. Lose again.
Leading advantage is one aspect. The most important thing is that the Warriors' approach is enough to completely destroy the opponent's confidence and morale. The importance of these two things in basketball is self-evident.
So at this time, both the outside world and the Warriors fans feel that they have won.
"When Klay Thompson feels hot, he can end the game alone!"
"Coach Steve Kerr's strategy is very correct. In the second quarter, his tactical arrangement with Thompson as the core gave the Warriors a beautiful turnaround."
"This will be the night of Klay Thompson's career! If Klay can maintain that touch in the second half, I won't be surprised if he scored 60 points!"
On the commentary stage, all the commentators were suppressed by Thompson's performance. The cheers in the Oracle Arena are endless, and major reporters have left a large section for Klay Thompson, ready to report after the game.
But all of them have overlooked a problem-the game is not over yet.
"The game is not over yet. In the second half of the game, I need you to look for more opportunities outside the three-point line! Don't be afraid of the defensive end, or proceed according to the original strategy! Stephenson, I have another task to give you... .."
While everyone was admiring Thompson's performance, Henson was still actively preparing for the second half. This team can be the runner-up with 73 wins. Today Henson will let them carry another shame!
First of all, he determined that the Pacers' defense is no problem.
Durant scored 12 at halftime and Curry scored 8 at halftime. Except for Durant, Curry, and Thompson, no one in the Warriors scored more than 5 points in the first half.
Henson's changes did limit Durant and Curry. George's defense was also very good, but Thompson's goal was amazing.
Therefore, Henson will not change the defensive strategy for Thompson. Fortunately for a Thompson alone, if Curry or Durant are also liberated because of a change of strategy, the game will really not come back.
Therefore, Henson hopes to put strategic changes on the offensive end. As for Stephenson, Henson needs him to do something he is very good at.
In the second half of the game, when Henson led the players into the field, the big screen was still replaying Thompson's goals in the second quarter.
There is no doubt that they want to use such a video to torture the Pacers' nerves. "Big Mouth" Green walked out of the player tunnel with a haughty face and smiled playfully at Henson.
But Green did not expect that the Chinese coach actually gave him a smile! As if the Warriors slaughtered 42 points in the second quarter, it was nothing at all.
"Damn, after the third quarter, I don't think you can laugh at all!" The veins on Green's head bulged up, and he really wanted to go up and beat Henson directly.
Henson smiled happily when he saw Green's reaction. Be angry, you simple idiot!
"In the second half of the game, the Pacers were too bad for the Pacers. They are 14 points behind the Warriors, and Klay Thompson's off-ball running is still so positive. It seems that he has scored 30 points in the half. Don't plan to stop!"
Mike Brin frowned, but fortunately, his commentary partner today is not Mitchell Thompson. Otherwise, the old man would not have to blow his son up.
Facts have proved that even with the same pedigree and conditions, the talents of different players are vastly different.
You see, the Thompson family has three sons. The eldest brother and the second brother Clay both play basketball. Clay has been mixed up in the Oracle Arena, but his eldest brother is still struggling for an NBA contract.
Sometimes, talent really does not distinguish between blood and family. An intermission did not let Klay Thompson interrupt his determination to show his talent.
So what the Pacers fans are desperate for is that Clay scored as soon as he played.
"Nice hand-to-hand, Clay and Green played well together. In the end, he ended the offense with a two-pointer against George. The Pacers were 16 points behind, and Clay got the game personally. His 32nd point! He had already scored 32 points just at the beginning of the second half!"
Henson shook his head regretfully, it seems that Thompson's hand is still hot. But he quickly put away his disappointed expression, then stood on the sidelines and clapped his hands vigorously to calm the players.
Subsequently, Paul took over Henson's command banner and began to organize the offensive calmly. On the court, the head coach can't mess around first, and the point guard can't mess around. If these two people are messed up, the team will be messed up.
The Pacers players faithfully implemented Henson's strategy and responded with a three-pointer.
Paul George has been mainly offensive with the ball in the past two seasons, but people forget that he started offense off the ball.
George's superb running and Henson's elaborate tactics made Thompson seem to be back in the first quarter. That Pacer No. 13 shuttled through the crowd like a loach, he could not catch George. By the time he caught it, George had already shot.
This time, after a series of runs and screens, George got an open long shot opportunity. The tactics are played out, but it depends on the players to make it. Henson also knows that if this goal is not scored, the Pacers' confidence will completely collapse.
Sometimes, the collapse is often produced in one round.
Fortunately, George underwent the pressure. His three-pointer shot into the net and sounded the clarion call for the Pacers to counterattack.
Although this three-pointer net, the Pacers are still 13 points behind, the situation is still not good for them. But a stone in Henson's heart fell, at least the morale of the team stabilized! Next, everything will be done!
In the subsequent attack, Durant's breakthrough was interrupted by Antetokounmpo and failed to enter. Although Thompson feels hot today, it is impossible for the Warriors to give Thompson every shot. Don't underestimate the most basic technical action of shooting, which is very physical.
And if there is no physical support, the stability of the shooter is not guaranteed. Therefore, in order to allow Clay's firepower to continue, the rest of the Warriors will definitely stand up and attack. This is Henson's opportunity!
Durant didn't make a layup, but the Warriors didn't care too much. Especially Draymond Green, this guy's retreat is a leisurely walk. In his opinion, the Pacers are just struggling meaninglessly.
So this time, Green is not very concerned about defense. He pushed Fry with one hand, his eyes fixed on the restricted area, ready to make up for defense.
With George's first offense, the Warriors thought the Pacers were looking for three-pointers, and all defenses were relatively outside.
As everyone knows this time, Antetokounmpo played a pick-and-roll with Lopez. Under Lopez's cover, Antetokounmpo strode to the basket with the ball!
Durant is not afraid of any breakthrough in the third position, unless the height, wingspan and pace of the third position are as exaggerated as himself.
Seeing Durant was thrown off a position, Green went to make up for the basket. But he didn't go all out to rush Antetokounmpo, but kept his eyes on it. After all, Antetokounmpo may split the ball to Frye.
Therefore, Green's supplementary defense this time has lost the momentum of "fighting with you". But Antetokounmpo is here to work hard!
When Green saw Antetokounmpo taking two steps directly within the free throw line, he was taken aback. By the time Green jumped to block it again, it was already too late. He thought he was clever with a mind, but he was just wise.
With the height and wingspan not dominant, Green's take-off was still half a beat slower. As a result, when Antetokounmpo has flown to the highest point, Green has just taken off.
It is impossible to block Antetokounmpo, let alone blocking, Green still has to face a serious problem: he may be blocked.
In the air, Antetokounmpo's body and Green slammed into each other. But Green, who was unprepared, couldn't fight against the Greeks with inertia bonuses. He was violently knocked out of the bottom line and fell to the basketball hoop in embarrassment. And Antetokounmpo slammed the ball into the box hard!
At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded. Not Antetokounmpo fouled, but Draymond Green defensive foul!
"What!?" Green immediately got up, stood in front of the referee and shouted. Even if you are humiliated, you still have to be fouled? This kind of thing, how can Green's bad temper stand?
On the other hand, Antetokounmpo bulged up his tendons and roared up to the sky, as if demonstrating to the Warriors fans!
Green looked at Antetokounmpo's arrogant appearance, and suddenly became angry. He swears that he will find this shameful scene back!
Henson jumped up with the players on his bench at the moment when Antetokounmpo scored a dunk.
George and Antetokounmpo, the key goals scored by the super striker under tremendous pressure, laid the foundation for Henson's tactical execution. He thanked them, so he will fulfill his promise and lead them to victory!
At the free throw line, Antetokounmpo recovered his breath and steadily took the ball out. Antetokounmpo's free throws have improved a lot in recent years, although it is not good, but it is not too weak.
Under tremendous pressure, Antetokounmpo steadily hit the ball. Seeing this, Fraser was very pleased. At least, he saved another player's shot.
At this point, Henson has all the prerequisites for implementing the follow-up plan.
With only 10 points left, the Pacers' morale is high. Also, Draymond Green is very angry!
From 0 to 1 is difficult, but from 1 to 2, from 2 to 3, it is very easy. The same is true for Henson's tactics. With the expected beginning, the rest can be executed.
Next, Henson will begin to slowly counteract the advantage of the Warriors. After 48 minutes, the Warriors will find out. Even God can't help them!
