The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 379 The same sweep
The Blazers, who started desperately with the strongest lineup, failed in both shots. Instead, Zhang Xiaotian hit a jumper with an angry fadeaway.

In 2 minutes, although Ed Davis grabbed an offensive rebound and scored two points for the Blazers, the Warriors still led the opponent by 5 points with Zhang Xiaotian's almost unsolvable performance.

The Warriors played the spirit of beating the dogs in the water, and this time they took the initiative to adjust, replacing Curry, Green and Klay Thompson, intending to take away the opponent in a wave.

Curry made a hit when he came up, and then assisted Zhang Xiaotian to make a three-pointer.

Seeing that the score gap was approaching double digits, CJ McCrum finally broke out in desperation and hit two consecutive three-pointers.

Then Lillard and Aminu also hit three-pointers and scored 2 points in a row in just 12 minutes. The Blazers unexpectedly overtook the score after the Warriors' strongest lineup came up.

In competitive sports, some things are really uncertain.

Explosive seeds and metaphysics are not something that is out of reach. The Warriors hurriedly asked for a timeout.

Cole decided to temporarily withdraw the small lineup and play Bogut.

Although the opponent has always been playing to change the lineup, sometimes it can't be rigid, the man can bend and stretch, and the team with aspirations for the championship can't let people figure out the routine.

The Blazers are not the Rockets, and the inside advantage is just a little bit. After Bogut comes up, the Warriors will not suffer in the inside, at least in terms of defense.

Bogut sent a block when he came up, Curry and Klay Thompson also hit three-pointers from the outside, and the Warriors regained the lead.

But at this time Lillard broke out again. He scored 7 points in a row and fouled Bogut.

The performance of the top all-stars, Lillard also played double the power at the moment of life and death of the Blazers.

The Warriors changed the lineup to five minors again. They really didn't expect that the Blazers could do this.

It's okay to lose a game, but it's safer to rest for a few days if you sweep your opponent.

At the critical moment, Zhang Xiaotian broke through and scored, and Curry hit a three-pointer again. The score gap between the two sides became 1 point, and there were 2 minutes left. The outcome depends on whose hands are tough at the last moment.

Is it against Biao or against Biao, Lillard hates to shoot a three-pointer but unfortunately missed.

However, Curry didn't make a hit in the next singles. Lillard finally calmed down. He showed a rare calmness.

108:111, Lillard seems to be possessed by a foreigner at this time, but his style of play has changed. Didn't he just throw it as soon as he closed his eyes?

But only 7 seconds later, Curry and Zhang Xiaotian cooperated again. This time, Curry gave the ball to Zhang Xiaotian. Zhang Xiaotian hit a three-pointer, 111:111. flat.

After the Blazers timed out, the ball was handed over to Lillard.

Lillard controlled the time and was not in a hurry. Just when the Blazers were about to start tactics, the Warriors chose to foul.

Because the number of fouls has not yet been counted, there is nothing wrong with interfering with the opponent's rhythm.

This time, if the Blazers miss, the Warriors can spend time until the last shot.

The Blazers still chose to let Lillard play singles. Lillard started to drill in, and the Warriors' defense came up. This time, Lillard deleted the pass option and bit the bullet and threw the ball.

With a sound, Zhang Xiaotian turned around and received the ball in his hand.

With only 18 seconds left, Warriors coach Cole did not intend to timeout, Zhang Xiaotian directly dribbled the ball to the opponent's half.

Curry signaled to hand him the ball, and Zhang Xiaotian said directly that he would handle the ball.

Curry's expression froze and he was a little embarrassed, but whoever has the ball at this time is the boss, and he has to finish the game if he is upset.

Cole's eyelids twitched. It seemed that he had to have a good talk with the two after the game.

Seeing that the Western Conference finals are about to come, the team should not let infighting.

Zhang Xiaotian held down the time and signaled everyone to pull away, he didn't need to cover.

Coming to cover now is likely to bring another defensive player over. Zhang Xiaotian is more suitable for singles now, after all, the Blazers have no players who can catch him.

If the ball is not done well, Zhang Xiaotian's behavior is to pretend to be a mess. He is not the leader of the team, so the risk must be great, but the strong must dare to face the risk.

In the eyes of his fans, his current behavior is amazing.

The Blazers have already made a plan, if Zhang Xiaotian rushes in, he will attack immediately, regardless of whether he can pass the ball or not.

Does he pass the ball?To be precise, he didn't intend to break in.

At the last moment, Zhang Xiaotian started. He pretended to rush in, but in fact he didn't take a step forward at all. When he retracted his center of gravity, Zhang Xiaotian stepped on the three-point line and pulled up.

Domineering and bold, everyone looked at the basket.

Without any accidents, the basketball fell into it steadily.

At 113:111, the Warriors took the lead, with only 0.5 seconds left, which can already be regarded as a lore.

The Blazers regretted that they called a timeout early, and how to play free throws in the backcourt for 0.5 seconds.

The Blazers players all rushed to the Warriors, planning to make a last-ditch effort.

The ball was thrown directly to the Warriors' basket, and the Warriors players were also ready to defend, one by one, without any omission.

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded, the Blazers made a free throw and went straight out of bounds, and the Warriors had the ball.

The Warriors' bench celebrated again, and the opponent had no chance to make a phone call even if it was a steal in 0.5 seconds.

After the Warriors sent the ball, the game ended immediately.

A little later than the Cavaliers, but the Warriors also swept.

When the reporter asked about the last ball after the game, Zhang Xiaotian said calmly, "This is the team's tactic. Stephen and I just communicated."

The team won, and no one would disrupt the stage. Curry also said that the two were just communicating normally.

Cole said: "At that time we had multiple options, we chose one of them, and then we won the game. Both Stephen and Zhang are very good players. Their performance brought the team victory."

"We are looking forward to the Western Conference Finals. They are all experienced players. No matter which team our opponent is, we will do our best to win."

As the swept side, the Blazers players are not in a good mood. Lillard said that they will come back next year, and it will be a different result.

To be honest, they didn't have Aldridge this season, and it's pretty good to be able to get here, but the Warriors are too strong.

As for the Warriors and Cavaliers who have achieved the same record, they have not directly talked about each other.

"We need to face the next opponent first, otherwise it will be disrespectful." Kerr said.

It is true that the next opponent must be considered first. Both the Spurs and the Thunder are easy to match, but the players still look forward to the finals in private.

Just like Yang Feiyu was discussing Zhang Xiaotian's fourth championship ring with others in the fan group.
