The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 463 The Return of the King

Amid the calls of the fans, Zhang Xiaotian stood on the sidelines again.

The team doctor was a little worried, but no major problems were found after a simple inspection.

A star of Zhang Xiaotian's level has the right to be self-willed. He didn't continue to undergo a comprehensive inspection just now, and now he is going back to the court. The coaching staff acquiesced.

The Spurs just lost a backcourt rebound and were overtaken by the Warriors. The scale of victory has tended to the Warriors.

But at this time, Zhang Xiaotian came back.

On the side of the Warriors' bench, the coach adjusted the defensive strategy with a tactical board.

When Zhang Xiaotian came up, he would definitely change the situation on the field, but they didn't believe that Zhang Xiaotian was fine after they had been in the locker room for so long, and they would definitely win this game.

"I knew that the gods are fine, even if those scumbags use despicable means, they will not be the opponents of the gods."

"The gods are mighty, the gods are mighty!"

Zhang Xiaotian's die-hard fans all over the Internet are excited, including the woman at home.

Yang Feiyu didn't know what was going on at the scene just now, so she was very anxious. Now that Zhang Xiaotian has returned to the field, the mother is also excited.

The task of defending Zhang Xiaotian fell to Iguodala. Before Iguodala was a bit difficult to defend, this level of star can not be handled by skills alone, especially Zhang Xiaotian is very good at the end, but just now Zhang Xiaotian suffered an ankle problem , Everyone has seen the slow motion replay, and it cannot be faked.

Although it is a bit unreal, there will be no soft-heartedness in the competitive arena. Taking advantage of the opponent's injury is also an option. Zhang Xiaotian, who has a problem with his ankle, has full confidence in Iguodala.

After Zhang Xiaotian played again, the Spurs reverted to a major and a junior.

Both of the Spurs' insiders are technical. At this time, they can no longer have a strong impact on the Warriors' insiders. They can only adapt to the opponent's lineup.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't immediately make an effort to prove that he had no problem, because the opponent was a warrior, so he had to be more cautious.

He played pure organization and didn't even get to the three-point line.

However, as long as Zhang Xiaotian is on the court, the Warriors cannot ignore the name of the shadow player of the tree.

Zhang Xiaotian handed the ball to Aldridge. Aldridge hit Draymond Green with his back. The Warriors' defense shrunk. Aldridge returned the ball to Zhang Xiaotian. Zhang Xiaotian didn't stop the ball. Germany directly strengthened, and the Warriors made a defensive foul.

Not only is the Warriors' defense difficult, but the Spurs are also playing more confidently.

This season, Zhang Xiaotian has unconsciously carved a deep imprint on this team.

With Zhang Xiaotian as the master at the end of the quarter, they will definitely win.

On the offensive end, because the Warriors played Iguodala, Danny Green could switch to Curry unscrupulously, Zhang Xiaotian was still the main defense of Klay Thompson, and Leonard took on the task of blocking Durant.

Because of Klay Thompson's style, from a defensive point of view, it is hard to see whether Zhang Xiaotian has any problems with his ankle.

The Warriors also have a way. They played a very routine cooperation, and Draymond Green pulled out and made a successful mid-range shot.

Curry or Durant have not been allowed to play singles directly. In the last few minutes, the star can control the game at a certain point in time. Whether this time point is 3 minutes or 1 minute mainly depends on the scores of the two sides.

The Spurs still used the tactics when Zhang Xiaotian was away, but it was him who was ambushing outside the three-point line.

This time the Warriors didn't shrink so fast. After receiving a pass from Zhang Xiaotian, Aldridge solved the problem with his best turnaround jumper.

The Spurs started so smoothly, Aldridge is a big reason.

At this time, the Warriors can no longer stare at Zhang Xiaotian's ankle, they must pay more attention to the other two strong points of the Spurs.

In the Warriors' offense, there was a problem this time. Curry was interfered with and missed a three-pointer.

They grabbed offensive rebounds, and Durant also made a three-pointer, but was still interfered.

This time the rebound was protected by Zhang Xiaotian, he sent the basketball forward, and Mills dribbled the ball and launched a counterattack.

Mills dribbled the ball to Leonard after half court, and Leonard went straight to kill.

The Warriors returned to defense very quickly. After being blocked, Leonard threw the ball back.

Zhang Xiaotian just arrived and raised his hand to score a three-pointer.

The basketball fell into the basket steadily, 104:103, and the Spurs overtook the score.

Iguodala's face was full of shock. He just made sure that Zhang Xiaotian didn't keep up before he went to help defend. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaotian had already come outside the three-point line in the blink of an eye.

The Warriors' coaching staff reminded on the sidelines that no matter what Zhang Xiaotian's situation is, he must keep up.

Turning back, Curry hit an unreasonable three-pointer again, and the Warriors took the lead again.

But when the Spurs attacked again, Zhang Xiaotian's position changed, and he came to the low post.

The Warriors haven't considered whether it's Durant's defense, Zhang Xiaotian has already played back with the ball in the low post.

Iguodala didn't resist, Zhang Xiaotian turned around and hit the golden rooster independently.

Whether there is a problem or not, the opponent is even more confused, but Zhang Xiaotian's strength is good, and Iguodala's height is not dominant, even if he doesn't switch defenses, the defense must shrink.

On the Spurs side, Popovich also loudly reminded the players to pay attention to defense.

Curry and Durant were taken care of, Curry held the ball at a 45-degree angle, Zhang Xiaotian made a gesture to double-team, Curry split the ball to Klay Thompson, Zhang Xiaotian had stopped in front of Klay Thompson on time.

Draymond Green ran out again, then caught the ball and squeezed a step inside, just avoiding Aldridge who was chasing him to complete a layup.

Draymond Green had only contributed on the defensive end before, but he did not expect to act as a surprise soldier on the offensive end at the last moment.

For the Spurs, Zhang Xiaotian was holding the ball in the low post. This time the Warriors' defense quickly shrunk. Zhang Xiaotian turned around forcefully, but the ball was beautifully thrown to the outside. Mills caught the ball and hit a three-pointer, and the Spurs led by 1 point again.

There is only one minute left in the time, and the moment to decide the outcome of the game has come.

After the Warriors timed out, Curry made an emergency stop and made a jumper after breaking through, 109:110.

Then the Spurs Leonard hit two points, 111:110.

Come back and Curry hit again, 111:112.

At this time, Zhang Xiaotian's position on the offensive end changed again. He caught the ball near the middle circle and assumed a singles stance. The Warriors could no longer figure out what he would do.

But the time has come to the last moment, and they don't care about it. Zhang Xiaotian will force when he is close to the three-point line, and he will attack when he goes inside.

When the time was approaching 24 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian made a gesture, and the Spurs' offensive end immediately changed. Leonard moved down, Aldridge raised it, and then he started instantly.

At the same time that Aldridge was making a covering move, Zhang Xiaotian had already changed direction and rushed over, and there was no problem with his ankle at all.

Then he pulled it up.
