Chapter 590 Seven Will Not Be...

Among all the teams in the league, the Warriors' start is obviously the worst, not because of how dense their schedule is, but because they have too many strong teams to face.

In the ten games since the start of the new season, the Warriors have faced powerful teams such as the Lakers, Magic, Trail Blazers, Nuggets, Spurs, and Thunder, and they must immediately play the Eagles and Heat back-to-back.

Of course, such a schedule is indeed in line with their status as defending champions. In the schedule of the nba platoon, the strong teams usually have a difficult start and ending, while the mid-term is relatively easy.

Facts have proved that the Warriors are indeed superior. Even facing such an opponent, they still maintain an undefeated record and occupy the first place in the league, which is more in line with their status as the defending champion.

However, after the news of Chandler's injury broke out, the outside world no longer has enough trust in the Warriors to maintain such a good momentum. What a strong defensive player standing at the basket can bring to a team is really amazing. There are too many, and the loss of such a person is also a huge loss to the team.

Chandler needs to rest for too long, three and a half months is more than half a season, and this time is enough to change the overall ranking of a team after the end of the season.

Chandler's injury is definitely great news for the rest of the league, and the same is true for the Eagles, because they are the opponents that the Warriors need to face next.

Ending the defending champion's ten-game winning streak, what a majestic thing, just thinking about it is enough to make the Eagles players excited.A warrior is like a beautiful woman, who is usually wrapped in thick cotton clothes, but now she suddenly changes the cotton clothes and puts on autumn clothes, revealing some things that would not be exposed before, which will naturally stimulate the male sex hormone.

The Hawks' starting lineup is actually quite well equipped, with an extremely balanced inner money line. Starting center Al Horford, power forward Marvin Williams, small forward Josh Smith, shooting guard Joe Johnson, point guard Mike - Bibby, there are monsters like Jamal Crawford on the bench.

The Warriors' starting lineup was forced to change because of Tyson Chandler's injury, and Nelson Sr. used Channing Frye as the starting center.

Although Frye is tall, his defensive ability is obviously incomparable to Chandler's, but he also has a huge advantage over Chandler, that is his offensive ability, especially his mid-range and long-range shooting ability .When he was in the Knicks before, Frye's mid-range and long-range shooting ability was only so-so, but after a season of training with the Suns, his outside shooting ability is already quite good.

The Warriors' starting power forward is still Antawn Jamison, and the other three positions have also remained unchanged, small forward Yang Shuai, shooting guard Tyreke Evans, and point guard Kirk Hinrich.

Frye and Horford jump the ball, Horford touches the basketball first, and the Eagles have the right to attack.

Knowing that after Chandler was injured, the Warriors' inside defense would definitely be weaker, so the Eagles' first offense was not handed over to Johnson, but to Horford inside.

Facing Frye's defense, Horford played very confidently, turning around slightly back to back and hitting a jumper directly.

Chandler's departure has brought some changes to the Warriors' defense, but the impact on the offensive end is not great, and the ball is still in the hands of Yang Shuai.After Yang Shuai broke through to attract the attention of the defense, the ball was handed over to Evans who was running, and Evans handed over the ball to Jamison who was open. The Warriors' first attack was also easily completed.

For several consecutive offenses, both teams played very well. The situation on the court was also tepid, and the point difference was not even widened.

Halfway through the first quarter, the score of the two teams was 12:13, and the Warriors in the away game fell behind by 1 point.In the Warriors' offense, Yang Shuai broke through to the inside and was touched by Josh Smith, and the ball fell into the hands of Joe Johnson.Evans physical fitness is not worse than Johnson, but it did not stop Johnson's fast break.

At 12:15, the point difference between the two teams widened to 3 points. At this time, the Warriors' offense once again had problems, and Channing Frye was fouled for covering outside the three-point line.

The possession of the ball changed hands, and when they came to the other end, the Eagles did not miss the opportunity to widen the gap.Johnson's breakthrough attracted the Warriors' defensive pressure, and then the ball was distributed to the outside Marvin Williams. As a power forward, Marvin Williams also has a very good outside shooting ability, and the open three-pointer is stable. Steady hit.

After the point difference was widened to 6 points, Yang Shuai and Evans carried the banner of the team's offense together, while the Eagles took advantage of the relatively weak inside defense of the Warriors and kept going inside. Launching an offense also allowed them to maintain their lead.

At 24:28, after the first quarter, the Warriors trailed by 4 points.

4 points behind, but the old Nelson did not change the team's rotation because of being behind. After the second quarter, Yang Shuai still sat on the sidelines to rest, leaving only Evans as a starter on the court.

Old Nelson not only sent Evans as a starter on the field, but also only arranged an inside player on the field.

Landry is the only inside player. With Jackson, Evans, Morrow, and Collison, the Warriors used a really small lineup. The tallest Warriors player on the field is only Landry at 2 meters .

The Warriors are a team that is very good at using a small lineup. If there is any team in the league that can match the Warriors in terms of small quickness, maybe it is only the Suns.

Facts have proved that small lineups can often have miraculous effects, especially in the regular season, such as the Warriors at this time.

Evans and Landry are in charge of attacking the basket, Jackson, Morrow and Collison are looking for shooting opportunities on the outside. The style of play made it difficult for the Eagles' defense to adapt for a while.

Evans rushed inside again, and after attracting a double-team, distributed the ball to Jackson on the outside. Jackson made a yu shot from beyond the three-point line, and then dumped the ball to Collison, who was completely open.At this time, no one had time to defend, and Collison made a shot from outside the three-point line, and Collison's shot fell firmly into the basket.

At 35:35, after Collison's shot, the Warriors tied the score.

The Eagles launched an offense, and the ball was handed over to their sixth player, Jamal Crawford. Although Crawford is not a first-class star, his scoring ability is very good, especially the convulsions. Sometimes he can even soar points for many first-class players.

Anthony Morrow's defensive ability is really not very good, and it is precisely because of this that Crawford seemed more confident at this time, dribbling the ball and rushing forward, and while Morrow retreated in a hurry, he just stepped into the three-point line Crawford inside made an emergency stop jumper.

The Warriors' possession fell into half court and Evans still handed over the ball, and Evans immediately dribbled to the basket with the ball in hand.Breaking through the first line of defense, Evans leaped towards the basket, and at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from the side and rushed towards him.

Evans noticed the figure appearing beside him, but he didn't take it seriously. Although his physical fitness was not as good as that perverted Yang Shuai, he was definitely considered strong.

What Evans didn't notice was that the physical fitness of the guy who jumped at him was also synonymous with abnormality. At this time, the Eagles fans at the scene were already ready to cheer.

"Crack!" Josh Smith jumped up from the side, and then accurately fanned his hand on the basketball.

Evans' face finally changed slightly, but at this time, the situation was out of control, and the ball was falling completely out of his control.

Amidst the cheers at the scene, a figure rushed to the basket to pick up the basketball that had just fallen into it. It was Collison.

Slowly dribbling the ball at the three-point line, Collison was not in a hurry. After all his teammates were ready to attack again, he signaled Landry to put up a high pick-and-roll.

Landry screened, and Collison immediately rushed to the basket from the side, but after only two steps, he had already thrown the ball and handed it over to Stephen Jackson, who cut to the basket from the left three-point line.

Jackson's position is a power forward, and his opponent is Marvin Williams. The Eagles' starting power forward does have the attacking methods of a general perimeter player and the flexibility of a general perimeter player, but he is not a perimeter player after all. He can be used as an outside player, but not so on the defensive end. Stephen Jackson from outside the three-point line just used an emergency stop to run back and left him behind, and then rushed to the basket.

Jackson's speed is indeed not fast, but it is enough to get rid of Marvin Williams. A step away also means that Williams almost lost the opportunity to defend Jackson.After receiving the pass from Collison, Jackson quickly rushed to the basket. At this time, the Eagles' inside line was unguarded, and he would naturally not let go of such an opportunity.

After rushing to the outside of the three-second zone, Jackson jumped up with the ball in his arms. At this time, he also saw Josh Smith.

Pulling the high ball back, Jackson did not choose to go hard like Evans, but moved his hand towards Smith.

"Crack!" A clear voice sounded, and Jackson quickly felt the back of his hand being slapped heavily, and a smile was about to appear on his face, but soon, the smile that had appeared just now disappeared and turned into a painful one. expression.

"Beep!" The referee at the bottom line blew his whistle, and the field quickly became chaotic.

"It can't be..." On the sidelines, Yang Shuai jumped up with his eyes wide open, staring closely at the inside of the field, suddenly feeling a bad premonition in his heart.
