Chapter 497 Is Both the End and the Beginning

Su Yang made some adjustments and the game continued.

The two teams played inseparable.

Clay slowly showed a bursting state, frequently hitting three-pointers through LeBron's pass, a total of 7 of 5 shots, and the defensive end also locked LaVine, helping the Warriors to overtake at the end of the half, so that the Kings will feel in advance , What is the universal light of Buddha.

Returning to the locker room during the intermission, the kings chatted and analyzed, their expressions became more excited, and they were ready for a classic battle.

The third quarter started. Su Yang adjusted his defensive strategy and quickly restricted Clay from playing efficiently. However, Millsap stepped forward on the Warriors side and succeeded in all kinds of face-to-basket rushes. Leeson made 9 of 5 three-pointers.

Such a crazy three-pointer made the Kings hold a full meeting to maintain the situation, and the two teams continued to fight in the fourth quarter.

LeBron, who had enough physical strength, led the team to sprint frantically during the substitute stage, holding Gay and Turner to a small explosion and keeping the lead.

But gradually there are only two points left.

ESPN commentator Van Gundy took the time to comment: "The Warriors' lead is an extraordinary performance, but I have a vague feeling that Klay Thompson has the potential to become a historical 3D player. He is very pure. Except for playing ball and dog training, the rest of the time is only spent on beauties..."

Mark Jackson smiled: "I completely agree with you that he has an indescribable talent for the catch and shoot."

Between the words, it was the king's attack again, starting from one inside and four outside. Curry slowly dribbled the ball forward and went straight to the right wing.

Seeing this, Cousins ​​simultaneously set up a wall to block Collison, and Warriors center Millsap ICE restricted him without hesitation.

Unable to continue walking the sideline, Curry hurriedly turned to face the top of the arc, and hurriedly passed the ball to Cousins ​​who disassembled and ran to the top of the arc.

The space is wide, Cousins ​​saw LeBron jumping out, raised his hand to shoot a three-pointer, easily moved LeBron's center of gravity, and then released the ball with his left hand to break through, killing to the edge of the penalty area in the blink of an eye, but LeBron chased and defended extremely, teamed up with Ba Ernes, flanking back and forth.

In the blink of an eye, Cousins ​​turned to the right, jumped out of bounds, raised his hand and threw the ball to the wide open corner on the right.

Gay catches the ball and shoots, and the three-pointer hits the iron.

The basketball rebounded and flew to the center line in the chaotic scramble.Picking it up in his hand, Turner made a shot to attract the defense. Regardless of the Warriors' ICE restrictions, he forcibly used the cover to break through on the right. However, the difficulty was too great. If he didn't pay attention, the basketball flew out of bounds.

The referee blew his whistle to punish the violation, and gave the king a chance to re-attack on the sideline of the front court. Su Yang got up and gestured to arrange tactics.

By the way, let Curry play more without the ball to stretch the space and defend. The Warriors obviously have a targeted defense. Although Curry's performance is only average, it is probably because Kerr values ​​​​Curry. Stoudemire made an exchange.

On the field, the Kings set their positions. Gay served the ball out of bounds and passed it to Cousins ​​who ran to the top of the arc. Then he stepped into the field, and with the help of Green's back cover, he easily rushed to the basket and made a perfect back The card position blocks Iguodala and creates an opportunity to attack the basket.

LeBron quickly shrank from the left wing, relying on Turner's three-point shooting ability is basically zero, ready to help defend the through pass from the middle.

Cousins ​​didn't think much about it, turned around and threw the ball to the left wing. Turner didn't hesitate to catch the ball, and raised his hand to make an open three-pointer.

As expected, the basketball clanged like iron.

Su Yang grinned and sucked in the cold air. After thinking about it again, it can be regarded as progress. After all, Turner basically didn't shoot three-pointers before. This time, he took a shot at a critical moment, which is considered to have great courage. Let's take it step by step. Think of it as a game of cultivation, anyway, the biggest The difficulty is psychological.

While thinking about it, Gay grabbed an offensive rebound and threw the ball to the top of the arc against the Warriors encircling him.

Despite hitting a three-pointer before, Cousins ​​still didn't hesitate. He flew towards Mipsap and raised his hand again to grab a shot.

Boom!The three-pointer went into the net.

112 to 111, the king overtook.

With 3 minutes and 04 seconds left in the game, the battle was fierce.

Su Yang took the lead in applauding, and then yelled to remind him to return to the defense quickly. The Warriors then launched an attack, starting with one high and four low formations.

Clay took the ball at the top of the arc and faced to the right, while LeBron used the pass and then passed down Collison to cover and lift the right side 45 degrees.

Seeing that LeBron was in place, Clay raised his hand to pass the ball and rushed over, pretending to cooperate with each other, but in fact took away the help defender.

At the same time, Collison, who had previously screened, cut into the paint and set a cross screen for Le Millsap to hold Cousins.

Millsap reached the right waist and formed a high-low connection with LeBron, and LeBron also raised his hand to pass the basketball.

Turner, who was squatting in the right corner, suddenly rushed out. While Millsap was not stable with the ball, he made a steal, and the audience immediately cheered.

"Turner can always surprise people, but he can't raise a big level. It really makes people like it and hate it..." Su Yang didn't expect Turner to come out and steal it. The main reason is that LeBron passed the ball quickly and powerfully. Big, and Millsap is experienced.

That kind of steal is extremely risky. With Millsap passing the ball casually, Clay may hit a three-pointer, which is extremely lethal.

The king took advantage of the situation and counterattacked, and the warriors dispersed and retreated. Seeing this, Su Yang gestured to remind him that he could back cover and attack for two points.

Cousins ​​and Turner followed suit immediately, and the 45-degree three-point line on the left side of the two converged ahead of schedule and easily entered the paint.

The Warriors quickly shrunk to encircle, Turner threw the ball to the right corner, and Green caught the ball and shot a three-pointer.

Millsap took off to grab a rebound, landed and turned around and made a long pass to the right sideline. LeBron caught the ball and galloped like a hot wheel.

The king's generals quickly returned to the defense, four-on-one, LeBron had to stop, and the Warriors turned to attack.

Collison took the ball and continuously shook his crotch to open up the space. He suddenly started to force Curry, kicked a few times to hit the waist, and scored with a high throw.Su Yang thought to himself, what the hell, Collison actually played like Irving, LeBron's group bonus is so strong?
While thinking about it, the King also went up and down, Curry ran to the left wing with the ball, and Turner used the screen to catch the ball.

Cousins ​​followed and ran to the left 45 degrees, set up a wall as a screen to block Clay, Millsap chose to switch defenses, and the situation became heads-up.

In the blink of an eye, Turner rushed to the basket and missed the rebound, Cousins ​​grabbed the rebound, and Millsap took off and flew.

LeBron picked up the basketball at the top of the arc and led the Warriors to launch a counterattack. The basketball continued to pass and was handed over to Collison in the left corner.

"My mother, I'm still here!"

Su Yang was a little surprised. He really didn't like Curry's single defense. He actually arranged for two consecutive singles. Tyronn Lue possessed him?

While thinking about it, Collison made a tentative step, forced his way to the line, made an emergency stop and turned around to pull the ball, and then made an emergency stop and turned around, to no avail.

It wasn't Owen after all.

Even Irving isn't 100 percent capable.

Seeing that the ball was about to be lost, Collison hurriedly passed the ball to the outside. Clay caught the ball and started to rush to the basket. The dribble was a bit rough.

However, to grab the rhythm, Turner was in a hurry and couldn't catch up. The Kings had to shrink and encircle the inside line, and the basketball flew straight to the left corner.

Millsap caught the ball and made a wide-open three-pointer. The basketball sounded like iron. Su Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that it was a good thing he didn't score.

The Kings grabbed a rebound and launched a counterattack, Curry passed the ball forward, the front left back screened and attacked, and the Warriors defended with ICE.

The basketball shifted accordingly, passed through the position a few times, and returned to Curry's hands, but with only 1.9 seconds left, he raised his hand and shot.

In a hurry, Collison swooped to block and knocked over Curry. The referee whistled for a foul and made three free throws.

Su Yang once again led the cheers, the voice of MVP resounded through the Sleep Train Arena, and Curry stood at the free throw line and scored three times in a row.

"Curry's free throw percentage is better than many players' layups. It is basically the first tier in NBA history. Only Calderon and other players can compete with him. If they are limited to the same position, they will also beat Nash and Price. Absolutely. The advantages are number one…”

Feeling emotional, the Warriors launched a counterattack. Collison took it to the frontcourt, changed directions continuously, and suddenly joined the ball to shoot a three-pointer.

The basketball was banging like iron, Su Yang looked stupid on the spot, wondering if Cole's mind was broken, and let Collison hit three in a row.

Before thinking too much, the Kings grabbed a rebound and counterattacked, leading 115 to 113, Curry chose to press time for stability.

With only 15 seconds left in the blink of an eye, the basketball was handed over to the right midfielder Cousins ​​for a single play. Millsap's full defense was almost useless, and Barnes' help defense did not produce any effect. Cousins ​​hit the basket and jumped high. Aiming at the basket is a dunk, easily scoring two points.

With 46 seconds left in the clock, the Warriors trailed by 4 points.

Without asking for a timeout, LeBron caught the ball in the backcourt and brought it all the way to the left wing of the frontcourt. He sat on his back and hit Turner, and quickly pushed it to the waist. It was like an enlarged Hummer facing an ordinary household Mazda, showing a ruthless crushing trend , Guy hastily shrank from the top of the arc.

But LeBron didn't look at the pass, the basketball flew to the top of the arc, and Clay caught the ball and made a wide-open three-pointer, hitting the net hollow.

"It's better to let your brothers play this kind of cooperation..."

Su Yang looked up at the timer and found that there were 36 seconds left, and he did not ask for a timeout, indicating that the kings will continue to attack.

Cole can act aggressive without calling a timeout, so can I!
Curry took the ball to the front right wing in three seconds and didn't call the pick-and-roll, but Turner crossed in front of him and the Ghost screened.

At the moment Turner staggered, Curry started to accelerate and sprinted, reached his right waist in the blink of an eye, and took off against the four Warriors.

Instead of a layup, he pulled the bar and passed the ball to the left. Gay caught it in his hand, ignored the previous strike, and raised his hand to shoot a three-pointer.

bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.

120 to 116, the Kings still lead by 4 points.

With 28 seconds left in the game, Cole didn't call a timeout. LeBron pressed against the Kings and dribbled the ball to the right wing.

The Warriors automatically opened up to leave room for a one-on-one challenge. LeBron made a strong start and turned to the top of the arc to call for cover.

Millsap hurried forward to set up the wall, then quickly disassembled and turned inside, LeBron shifted to the left to face Cousins.

This time it was bound to be a one-on-one match, Su Yang got up and waved to call, the fans on the scene stood up and booed wildly, and the level of interference was overwhelmed.

Time soon ran out, LeBron took the ball with his left hand and rushed to the basket.

LeBron could only choose to throw the ball to the right corner, but at the critical moment, Collison did not have the momentum of the previous consecutive one-on-one, and did not dare to pull up and grab the shot. Instead, he took a step and tried to hit the inside, but the King's defensive formation suddenly recovered , can only pass the top of the arc again.

Iguodala catches the ball and starts to rush, hits the basket in the blink of an eye, jumps into the air and pulls the bar for a layup, just like a small AI reappearing in the arena.

The basketball rebounded into the net, and with 7.7 seconds left before the end of the game, the Warriors chased 118 to 120, trailing by 2 points.

"Hey, I'll go, Tie Xue made a two-point layup!"

Su Yang didn't quite understand it, so he could only guess that the Warriors wanted to press Bo to make a double free throw or steal a chance, and then make a lore.

Raise your hand decisively to ask for a timeout.

Stop pretending!

The king's generals returned to the bench, and Su Yang said casually: "Just don't make mistakes, just play an echelon cover casually."

There is not much to say. After drawing the tactics, they will disband. The kings will return to the sidelines and start their positions directly in the five-out formation.

Cousins ​​and Thomas Jr. stood at the top of the arc, Covington stood on the left wing, Curry stood at the bottom corner on the left, and Green served out of bounds from the right wing.

The fans stood up and watched, the referee blew the whistle to time the ball, and Thomas Jr. immediately used Cousins ​​to cover and ran to the right to catch the ball.

Iguodala followed up closely and wanted to foul in a hurry, but Thomas Jr. changed hands behind him to avoid it. Cousins, who finished the screen, moved to the left wing at the same time, and gave Curry, who came out with the help of Covington's screen, Take another screen and give it a lot of space.

Seeing this, Thomas Jr. raised his hand to pass the ball, Iguodala quickly stopped the foul, and Curry caught the ball and jumped up to shoot a three-pointer.

when!The basketball hit the rim and bounced, bounced again, and fell into the net.

Cheers suddenly resounded throughout the arena, and with 2.6 seconds left, the Warriors were at the end of their game and let the time run out.

The final whistle sounded, and the Kings defeated the Warriors 123 to 118, continuing the record for the opening game in NBA history.

The commentator Van Gundy sighed: "This is the end of a game and the beginning of years of hegemony. Please look forward to it..."

　There will be three more changes today, but it will be later.
