NBA: Ultimate Tormentor

Chapter 221: 34 points in a single quarter!Stephen D. Just in Time!
The Golden State Warriors faced off against the Sacramento Kings for the second time this season.

After the game started, the Warriors were slow to find their outside shooting touch.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

After Curry strikes, his junior brother will strike.

After the junior brother played, PJ Tucker played.

After PJ Tucker played, Qin Dong played.

On the other hand, the Kings were so impressive that every one of them looked like they had stepped on dog poop. Even Tyreke Evans, who was an expert on outside shooting, made 3 of 3 2-pointers in the first quarter of the game.

The game entered the second quarter, and the Warriors changed their offensive strategy, hitting the basket and attacking the basket.

But the effect is not good.

Although Qin Dong can run over Dante Green and Tyreke Evans to get to the basket, the Warriors are too strong on the outside, which causes the Kings to shrink very little inside.

The opponent's shrinkage range is small and the defensive rotation speed is accelerated.

This caused Qin Dong, who forced his way inside, to suffer a lot of help and double-teaming.

Qin Dong's ability to hold the ball has not yet reached the state of being able to do whatever he wants, and his pick-and-roll style of holding the ball is a bit green, and he began to make mistakes one after another.

simply put.
At present, Qin Dong has a relatively large demand for 'breakthrough space'.

In the first half of the second quarter, Qin Dong was intercepted twice by the opponent, and once was out of bounds by Tyreke Evans who was assisting on defense.

However, as the Kings' hot outside touch disappeared, the Warriors relied on offensive and defensive transitions to score, reversing the game little by little.

30:37, Qin Dong rushed to the basket, hanging on Tyreke Evans who was rushing beside him. He was stunned at the last moment and forced to break free from the restraints and threw the basketball out. With a "swish!", the basketball Access the network.

and-one!

2+1!

Qin Dong, who had been running for a long distance, was breathing heavily.

But after scoring a goal.
[Performance Moment (Silver)] comes into play and returns Qin Dong's blue directly on the spot.

My body suddenly felt light, and I didn’t feel tired even after going up to the [-]th floor in one breath.

The game entered the second half.

Less than 2 minutes into the third quarter, the Warriors relied on defense + fast break to almost regain the score.

53:53, after Qin Dong grabbed the defensive rebound, he went down quickly. After being double-teamed by the opponent, he distributed the ball to the junior brother on the left. After the junior brother received the ball, he succeeded with a one-handed dunk.

The score is tied.

Just when the Warriors were about to gain momentum.
The Kings' three-pointers became accurate again.

All kinds of three-point shots against people are here again.

At 55:61, Kings starting guard Beno Udri hit Lance Stephenson and hit a magical three-pointer.

57:64, when the 24-second violation was approaching, Dante Green of the Kings blindly took a three-pointer and hit it into the frame.

Obviously, this shot was deceptive. Even Dante Green himself looked at his hands in disbelief after making the three-pointer.

But soon, in the next round, after Stephen Curry dribbled the ball across half court, he saw that Beno Udri could not come out from the three-point line.

Curry only scored 2 points in the third quarter. Curry, who made 6 of 1 three-pointers in the first half, still shot three-pointers without hesitation at this moment.

"Shua!"
Three points hollow into the net!

The Nets made waves.

"Good shot!"

"Curry's shot was really timely."

"Yes, it seems that the king is taking the initiative again."

"Curry made a timely three-pointer, effectively counterattacking the Kings."

"Now we'll see if Curry's three-point shooting touch can be continued."

The Kings attack.

Facing Qin Dong's defense, Tyreke Evans was not only unable to break through to the basket, but was almost forced to stop. With no other way out, he chose to force a mid-range shot.

"Dang!"
Shots hit the iron.

"The Kings' outside shooting accuracy was off the charts tonight."

"But this is not normal for them."

"That's right. After all, they are not the Warriors, so they can't be accurate for the entire game."

"The Warriors rely on defense and fast-break counterattacks to go back and forth with the Kings, who have unusual outside accuracy. This proves the strength of the Warriors this season in disguise."

"In addition, once the Kings' three-point shooting percentage and outside shooting feel return to normal levels, it means that the Warriors will control the rhythm of this game."

Director Zhang and Teacher Su from the Tianchao Sports Live Broadcast Room analyzed neutrally.

The Warriors were attacking in a positional battle. After Curry moved without the ball, he received a pass from Qin Dong and took a shot from a small space. With a "swish!" sound, the three-pointer hit the net.This was Curry's third three-pointer in the third quarter.

The Kings attacked, Tyreke Evans forced his way to the basket, and encountered the help of Qin Dong under the basket. Evans made a beautiful behind-the-back pass to Cousins ​​under the basket.

But before Cousins ​​could 'pick up' the ball, there was a "pop!" and a steal as fast as a black knife directly cut the basketball from Cousins' hand.

The Warriors counterattacked quickly, with Stephen Curry taking the lead.

There are still two steps away from the three-point line, and he takes a super long three-pointer.

"Shua!"
Another three-point hit!

After this goal, Curry had scored 15 points in a single quarter.

"My goodness."

"Again!"

"Curry used Xiao Qin's pick-and-roll to face Beno Udri and hit a three-pointer directly."

"Take the ultimate shot"

"Come in!"

"Another three-pointer!"

"This is the fifth three-pointer Curry has hit in a single quarter. He has now scored 5 points."

In addition to three-point shooting, Curry also breaks through the basket and scores.

After Curry and DeAndre Jordan set a pick-and-roll, they broke through and rushed to the basket with the ball. Facing Cousins' defense, Curry made a sudden stop, flew to the basket, and hit the rebound.

Cousins, who was out of position to defend Curry, was pinned to the spot by Curry like a wooden stake.

Curry's score in the third quarter has reached 25 points.

Tianchao Sports Live.

"Coach Zhang, many fans sent text messages asking if Curry can break Carmelo Anthony and Iceman Gervin's record of 33 points in a single quarter tonight."

"After all, the current Stephen Curry has scored 25 points and feels extremely hot. If he wants to break the record, it is very possible."

Teacher Su said with a smile.

"Yes. There are currently 5 minutes left before the end of the third quarter, and we are still 8 points away from tying the single-quarter scoring record of Melo and the Iceman."

"Xiao Qin and other players on the Warriors are not the kind of people who are afraid of their teammates breaking records. They will keep passing the ball to Curry."

"but."

"The Kings probably don't want to be the backdrop for the Warriors." "I guess they will adjust their defensive arrangement against Curry soon."

Director Zhang said.

As soon as Coach Zhang finished speaking, Kings coach Paul Westphal requested a timeout.

Current score: Warriors (81) vs. Kings (70).

With Stephen Timely's crazy output in the third quarter, the Warriors have gained an 11-point lead.

period of suspension.

Kings coach Paul Westphal emphasized only three things.

"Don't let Stephen Curry get an open shot!"

"Don't let Stephen Curry shoot three-pointers!"

"Don't let Stephen Curry catch the ball!"

Pause ends.

The game continues.

The Kings' defense against Curry was almost crazy. Paul Westphal kept Tyreke Evans close to Curry, even when Curry was off the ball.

Not only that, as long as Evans is caught in the pick-and-roll.
The Kings player closest to Curry dropped everything in his hands and went just for Curry.

After the timeout, the Warriors' first offensive round resulted in a passing error by the Warriors.

But what.
Even if the king has a good plan, the warrior also has a ladder.

The Warriors let Cousins, who likes to hold the ball outside the three-point line, shoot.
DeMarcus Cousins, who is that?

Li Kui in the NBA sometimes doesn't even listen to what his brother says, let alone a mere head coach.

DeMarcus Cousins, who was let go, only felt that he was underestimated by the opponent.
A baby-fat face has 'Baby, I'm not happy' written all over it.

"Whoosh!"

Cousins ​​made a three-pointer.

"when!"

The shot hit the iron and bounced out of the frame.

With a sound of "Pa!", Qin Dong grabbed the defensive rebound and passed Curry long.

The latter rushed to the frontcourt.

After arriving at the logo position, facing Evans's entanglement, Curry made an emergency stop, pulled his crotch back, threw out half his body, and shot another three-pointer.

"Shua!"
Three point hit.

Curry's personal score in a single quarter reached 28 points!
"Shh!"

Curry hit another hollow three-pointer.

Cousin Cousins' boss forgot the coach's instructions and let Curry hit two consecutive three-pointers.

Curry's personal score in a single quarter reached 31 points.

At this time, there are still 3 minute and 18 seconds before the end of the game.

In terms of time.
is enough.

But as Paul Westphal replaced Cousins ​​with a dark face, it became a little more difficult for Curry to break the record.

Don't let Curry catch the ball!

Procrastinate!
The ultimate goal of the Kings is obvious.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With less than 2 minutes left before the end of the third quarter, Curry made 3 of 3 0-pointers in more than a minute, including an air-ball.

Not only is Curry's accuracy declining, but so is his physical strength.

but
At this time, the man behind the small ball king stood up.

Among the current Golden State Warriors, who has the best feeding ability?
There is no doubt that the king of small ball, Stephen D. Timely Rain.

But who has the strongest ability to force-feed bread and force growth?
That has to be——Qin Dong.

"Stephen, be bold and take action!"

"There's a backboard!"

Qin Dong said to Curry, who wanted to give up his single-quarter scoring record.

"That's right. Stephen, we are here!" DeAndre Jordan and PJ Tucker nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

Curry, with a firm look in his eyes, immediately made a determined move in the next offensive round.

"Bang!"

Rebound scramble.

DeAndre Jordan is stuck!
Qin Dong directly grabbed the offensive rebound on the head of 211cm tall Dante Green, and with a "whoosh!", a cannonball-like through pass was passed to Curry.

The latter made a three-pointer!
"Bang!"

This time Curry hit the iron with a long rebound.

PJ Tucker fought hard and threw it to Curry again.

Curry, who was running without the ball, faced Evans and made another three-pointer.

This extreme shot was blocked by Evans.
Impotent
air-ball!

But as a teammate, Qin Dong violently grabbed the position and directly overturned Dante Green.

After catching the ball, he threw it to Curry again.

Because he didn't touch the basket, there wasn't much offensive time left.

Curry catches the ball hard!

Evans, who was guarding him, even pulled Curry's jersey into a dress
But the referee did not blow the whistle.

After receiving the ball, Curry made a feint shot with only 3 seconds left, making Evans jump up.
Stagger half a step and shoot a three-pointer.

The red light comes on at the end of the 24-second attack round.

"Shua!"
Three points hollow into the net!

There was a splash of water.

Curry's single quarter score reached 34 points.

With Qin Dong's assist, Curry broke the record of 33 points in a single quarter held by Anthony and Gervin.

In an instant.
Even the away Kings fans couldn't help but applaud.

As for the people on the Warriors bench, it was difficult to conceal their excitement.

"Stephen Curry broke the long-standing NBA single-quarter scoring record"

"Well, it's a break, not a tie."

"Yes. But I have to say that Curry's single-game three-point shooting record and single-quarter scoring record, which he surpassed, all came from Xiao Qin's assists."

Director Zhang and Teacher Su in the Tianchao Sports Live Room said with a smile.
