Chapter 419 One Twist and Three Twists, Thunderbolt 1 is invincible
Chapter 419 One Twist and Three Twists, Thunderbolt 1 is invincible
Yang Yi spoke eloquently, and retorted solemnly: "Championship experience is a vain thing. Sports competition still depends on strength. Did the Warriors have experience last year? Didn't they still steal a championship?"
Director Zhang couldn't take it anymore, and patted the table: "Why did you steal a championship? Why didn't other teams steal it, but why did the Warriors steal it?"
Yang Yi chuckled: "Because the Warriors' three-pointers have not been thoroughly studied, but this season, the other 29 teams have thoroughly studied the Warriors. You can see that Zhou Yang doesn't shoot three-pointers anymore."
Yu Jia was afraid that the two would quarrel again, so he quickly changed the topic.
……
Warriors locker room.
Zhou Yang and his teammates are chatting.
Playing so nervously in the first half, Zhou Yang acted as if nothing happened, laughing and joking.
"Butler, do you know? What does your initials mean in China?"
Butler didn't know that Zhou Yang was spoofing him, scratched his head, and asked, "Second brother Yang, I don't know, does it have any special meaning?"
"Of course it has a special meaning, it is very hard!"
"Very hard? Hey, are you complimenting me?"
"Of course, I just want to praise you!"
Curry knew the stalk, and he sniggered from the sidelines, only to be discovered by Butler.
"No, Second Brother Yang, you must be cheating on me. Stephen laughed. It's definitely not a good thing!" Butler was often tricked by Zhou Yang, and he was used to it.
Zhou Yang can get along well with all his teammates, no matter they are old players or rookies.
So the leader of the Warriors' locker room is undoubtedly Zhou Yang.
Although Curry's tactical status is getting higher and higher this season, he is almost equal to Zhou Yang, but when it comes to the atmosphere in the locker room, it still depends on Zhou Yang to maintain it.
After Zhou Yang made such a fuss, the slightly nervous emotions of the Warriors players were relieved.
The second half of the game began.
Durant and Westbrook wanted to play a wave in the third quarter and quickly opened up the score.
Because they know the explosive scoring power of the Splash Brothers, if they are not careful, the score will be pulled away.
So the Thunder must strike first.
Westbrook made a strong breakthrough, and during the breakthrough process, he stared at Zhou Yang's running position.
If Zhou Yang goes to defend Durant, Westbrook will attack by himself.
The Thunder scored 2 points in a row in less than 7 minutes of the third quarter, widening the point difference to 9 points.
This made the hearts of countless Warriors fans raise their throats.
It won't be directly spent...
But Zhou Yang and Curry responded quickly.
Curry dribbles across half court, passes the ball to Turkoglu, and the Splash Brothers run across the court.
Most superstars are unwilling to do this kind of running without the ball, but Zhou Yang and Curry often use this big move at critical moments to mess up the opponent's defense.
Sure enough, Zhou Yang and Curry ran out of space, Turkoglu passed the ball quickly, and the two did not hesitate to catch the ball and shoot!
Most of the superstars in the league are players who attack with the ball, only occasionally playing off the ball.
The only ones who can use off-ball as a conventional weapon are the Splash Brothers.
Zhou Yang scored 5 points in a row, and Curry made two more three-pointers to score 6 points.
After more than 5 minutes in the third quarter, the Warriors went ahead by 1 point!
So exciting!
The Thunder fans were just happy for less than 2 minutes, and they were beaten by the Warriors.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Brooks quickly called a timeout.
He knew very well in his heart that although Dewey's second young master had strong offensive power, he had to be a warrior when it came to scoring explosive power.
So we must not let the water splash open, first call a timeout to break off the fiery feeling of the water splash brother.
Zhou Yang and Curry bumped their chests to celebrate and roared in unison. There are not many times when the two explode at the same time, but they appeared again today!
During the timeout, Brooks called Harden over and explained a few words.
According to the Thunder's habit, Westbrook should go down to rest.
But Brooks made a change. He asked Sefolosha to go down and rest for a while, and let Westbrook and Harden be on the court at the same time.
The Thunder rarely used this lineup this season.
Because Harden's defensive ability is slightly weaker, he usually keeps Sefolosha on the court to defend the opposite outside sharp knife.
But when Sefolosha went down, it meant that the team was going to engage in a confrontation with the opponent.
Having said that, the Thunder does have the capital to play against any team.
The time-out is over and the game continues.
As soon as the Thunder came up, Durant passed Tony Allen, hit a two-pointer, and overtook the score again.
Curry felt good just now, so he wanted to retaliate, but his three-pointer was interfered by Harden and missed.
Ibaka grabbed the rebound and threw it directly to Westbrook.
Westbrook killed halfway through and broke into the penalty area one-stop. Zhou Yang tried his best to block it, but was knocked down by Westbrook.
The referee hesitated and called Zhou Yang for blocking the foul.
Thunder throws a throw-in.
Zhou Yang made 3 fouls, which is a bit dangerous.
Harden held the ball at the top of the arc, looked at Durant, but suddenly threw the ball to the basket. Ibaka jumped high and smashed the ball into the basket.
Chandler played very depressed in this game. Although he suppressed Perkins, Ibaka's talent was too strong, and Chandler suffered a big loss.
This lineup made the Warriors very uncomfortable, and the Thunder opened the score.
More than 10 minutes into the third quarter, the score came to 79:71, and the Thunder led by 8 points.
Old Nelson had to call a timeout.
The Splash Brothers' touch has declined, giving the Thunder a chance to open up the score.
The difference of 8 points is not big, and the Warriors players did not panic.
Coaches generally don't get angry because players don't make shots, they only get angry with players who don't defend or play according to tactics.
Zhou Yang was a little helpless. When he shot just now, he was double-teamed suddenly, which made the shot too hasty.
The Thunder's defensive oppression is indeed very strong, especially Ibaka's defense, which is everywhere.
Durant's defensive enthusiasm is also very high, this is the peak Durant!
Although Durant has never won a defense, Durant has long hands and feet and has always been a master of defense.
After the timeout, the Splash Brothers went down to rest, and the Warriors were played by Thomas Jr., Livingston, and Butler.
Under Harden's leadership, the Thunder continued to have an advantage.
After three quarters, the Thunder have led by 13 points.
The Warriors are a bit dangerous today. The Thunder's four players are all in such good condition and their morale is high. Amidst the cheers of the home fans, the bigger the better.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Curry rested off the court, and Zhou Yang continued to appear.
The most important thing now is to grab points, regardless of 21 [-], grab the points first.
So Zhou Yang started to make crazy shots.
Brooks is very helpless, Ibaka and Durant are not there, indeed no one can limit Zhou Yang.
So just 2 minutes into the fourth quarter, Ibaka appeared again.
Zhou Yang used himself as a bait to draw Ibaka out and let Thomas Jr. lead the offense.
