Chapter 550 Appears at the turning point

"Tyson grabs the basketball, Yang makes a quick break, he throws away Ray Allen, here comes... Big Windmill dunks Le Chang!"

"Bang!" When Yang Shuai smashed the ball into the basket again with his right hand, cheers went straight to Yunxiao again, and the point difference that had been narrowed to 4 points just now was widened to 9 points again.

Ray Allen's two three-pointers did give the Celtics a glimmer of hope in chasing points, but judging from the entire second quarter, the Celtics' offense was not good.Ray Allen was also lost in the field after being blocked by Yang Shuai, and scored no points in the rest of the second quarter.

At 21:27, in the second quarter, the Warriors won the Celtics by 6 points, which also allowed them to maintain a 10-point lead after the first half, 43:53.

Looking at the Warriors players running into the player tunnel, all the fans at the scene had smiles on their faces. At this moment, their mood is undoubtedly extremely relaxed.Of course, the atmosphere of this game is not easy. When it comes to the finals, the atmosphere is generally not too relaxed, unless the strength of the two teams is too different, but the difference between the strength of the Warriors and the Celtics is obviously not too big. big.

The game was not easy, but the mood of the Warriors fans was very different from the previous game. Of course, all this is because the Warriors' performance was completely different from the first half.

"If the Celtics want to reverse in the second half, it seems that they should make changes on both ends of the offense and defense. The Celtics did not play well in this game. They only scored 43 points in the first half. Of course, This can also be called normal. Their biggest problem is defense. In this game, the Celtics did not make the same defensive defense as in the previous game. 53 points."

"No! No! No!" Just as Kenny Smith's words fell, Barkley yelled: "Kenny, why are you talking about the Celtics' defense? I think they have done a good job on the defensive end. ...But the Warriors' offense was obviously better, which is why the Warriors were able to lead by 10 points after the first half."

Perhaps those who support the Warriors think that the Warriors' offense is very good, but Rivers doesn't think so. In his opinion, it is not as good as the opponent's offense. Only his own defense is not enough. Although the Celtics' The defense has done quite well.

"Don't let them catch the ball comfortably, the defensive rotation should be faster, Rajon, try to make your opponent pass the ball uncomfortable. Kevin..."

In the locker room of the visiting team, Rivers kept yelling at the players, and kept gesticulating the responsibilities of each player on the tactical board.

The Celtics will strengthen their defense in the second half. The Warriors players have been prepared for this, but they obviously did not expect the Celtics' defense to be so strong.In the third quarter, the Celtics showed their toughest defense since the start of the Finals.

It's okay for ordinary Warriors players to say that even Yang Shuai feels that this kind of defense is too tight, so it is really tight.

25：18，前面两节得分分别为26和27的勇士在这一节只拿到18分，而单节输掉7分也让他们在第四节开始前只剩下3分的优势。

"Tyreke, you have only one task, keep attacking the opponent's defense line, and then pass the ball to Stephen, Darren and Antoine. Antoine, your position is on this line, you need Running back and forth between the three-point line and the three-second zone..."

Although he didn't need to play, Yang Shuai still stood beside his teammates and listened to the old Nelson's tactics. In fact, he had already returned to the court to rest when there were more than 3 minutes in the third quarter, but the coach didn't seem to take it seriously. He immediately dispatched the plan.

The Warriors' lineup was roughly the same as the lineup at the beginning of the second quarter, except that Landry was replaced by Chandler, and the point guard was replaced by the starting Hinrich.

The Warriors' offensive power, Hinrich dribbled the ball to half court and was not in a hurry to hand it over to Evans. After signaling Chandler to step forward to pick and roll, Hinrich began to rush to the basket.

The Celtics backup point guard against Hinrich, Nate Robinson, did not seem to be too prepared for Hinrich's breakthrough. When Hinrich dribbled forward, Robinson did not keep up in time.

In fact, after entering the finals, the number of times Hinrich dribbled and broke through was indeed pitiful. Even such pick-and-rolls were rare. More often, the ball fell into the hands of Yang Shuai and Evans. These two players with strong impact will attack the Celtics' defense.

Seeing that Hinrich was about to rush to the basket easily on the court, Rivers on the sidelines couldn't help frowning slightly.In the third quarter, the tenacious defense narrowed the point difference to 3 points in one fell swoop, which gave Rivers an obvious feedback. If they want to win this game, defense is the key.But now, the players on the field did not implement his request.

What pleased Rivers was that Robinson's defense was out of position, but the rest of the Celtics' players were very timely.Hinrich rushed inside, but did not find an opportunity to attack.If it is Yang Shuai, a Celtics player's defense will not care about him who is determined to attack the basket. Even Evans also has this ability, but Hinrich does not, especially coming here After arriving in the Warriors, his role became more and more fixed as a three-point shooter.

Divide the ball, he had no chance, Hinrich chose to distribute the ball to his teammates.The ball flew out of Hinrich's hands and fell into the hands of the Warriors' only open player at this time, Tyreke Evans.

"Opportunity!" Yang Shuai whispered when he saw Evans catch the ball outside the three-point line, but then his brows frowned.

"Tyreke, it's a pity that you made a three-pointer from the outside. The ball hit the basket."

Evans made a three-point shot, but Yang Shuai frowned not because of this, but because Evans chose a three-point shot instead of a breakthrough.Evans is indeed open, but not far from his side, but there is Celtics perimeter defender Tony Allen.

This is not the most important thing. The important thing is that Evans' three-pointers are not stable, especially after entering the finals, he even missed a goal.If Evans chooses to break through at this time, based on his impact, once it starts, even if Tony Allen posts it in time, he will not be able to stop it. Yang Shuai is still very familiar with Evans' impact.

Evans rushes into the three-second zone, even if he can't score, he can attract double-teams to create opportunities for his teammates. If Stephen Jackson or Kirk Hinrich gets a three-point shot, the probability of hitting it is obviously higher than Evans High.

The backcourt rebound fell into the hands of the Celtics. Nate Robinson dribbled the ball to half court and also signaled his teammates to pick and roll, and then went straight to the basket.

Hinrich was not as careless as Robinson. When Robinson rushed into the three-point line, Hinrich appeared in time and stuck close to him.

Carrying Hinrich, Robinson took a step forward, his body stopped suddenly, and when Hinrich took a step, he quickly jumped up and shot.In terms of physical fitness, Robinson is indeed far superior to Hinrich.

Robinson jumped into the air and was about to make a shot, but suddenly found a palm hanging above his head. Before he could throw the ball, the big hand quickly fell and fanned the basketball.

"Snapped!"

"Nice job!" This time, Yang Shuai didn't frown any more, stood up quickly from his seat, and shouted towards the arena with his fists.

"Block from Tyreke Evans!!! Tyreke comes in from the side and blocks Nate's shot! Beautiful!"

"Tyreke... Evans!" The dj's yelling made the scene burst into cheers again, and the fans also began to forget the three-point miss just now.

Hinrich picked up the basketball after Evans' block fell, and then quickly swung it forward and handed it into Evans' hands.

"Pow!" The timely appearance of Tony Allen forced Evans to stop just after taking a step forward. Although Evans also quickly returned the ball to Hinrich, the Warriors' fast break was has been blocked.

Steadily dribbled the ball across the half court, seeing Evans beckoning for the ball, Hinrich did not hesitate, and handed the ball directly to Evans.

Breakthrough, received Hinrich's pass, Evans quickly forward.Tony Allen's reaction was not slow, and he stopped in front of Evans. At this time, Evans adopted a brutal style of play. Relying on his body being stronger than Tony Allen, Evans Carrying the opponent to the inside line.

Tony Allen tried his best to stand beside Evans, but he still couldn't stop him.Seeing this, the Celtics' defense quickly shrank and double-teamed.

After splitting the ball, he fell into a double-team, but Evans' mind was not overheated, and the ball was quickly passed out and fell into Hinrich's hands.

The Celtics' defense was busy expanding, and Ray Allen rushed towards Hinrich, but the ball in Hinrich's hands had already fallen into Jackson's hands at this moment.Receiving the ball from outside the three-point line, facing Perkins' defense, Jackson made a decisive shot.

"Stephen's three-pointer...hit! The Warriors quickly moved the ball to get an offensive opportunity, and Stephen made a hit!"

Barkley was shouting excitedly, and the shouting sounded again 30 seconds later.

"Tyreke broke through and rushed to the basket, scored the ball, Kirk caught the ball from the outside, and made a three-pointer! Kirk Hinrich chose the three-pointer...the ball was scored! The three-pointer was also hit!"

70:77, the point difference between the two teams came to 7 points after Hinrich's shot.Evans seems to have become the most critical figure in this period of the Warriors. Although he chose a three-pointer after the start of the fourth quarter, and although he has not scored a point in these rounds, the Warriors' 6 points are all the same. He is related.

Evans works hard on one end, and Ray Allen does the same on the other end.Assisted Nate Robinson to hit a three-pointer, dribbled through the middle distance and made an emergency stop jumper. In the 3 minutes of the fourth quarter, Ray Allen successfully helped the Celtics chase the score to 75:77. Quan returned to the Warriors again.

"Tyreke got the ball again, is he going to break again? Sure enough, Tyreke ran to the hoop on the pick-and-roll, passed the ball...fake, Tyreke's pass fake passed Kendrick, Layup, foul... Goal! 2+1! 2+1! Tyreke made a layup and fouled Ray Allen. Extra penalty!

Hey, Yang came to the sidelines, he seems to be on the field.It's time to play!Young replaces Kirk! "

"Coax!" The Warriors fans, who were originally cheering because Evans completed a beautiful attack, were even more excited when they saw Yang Shuai play.
