Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk
Chapter 1295 Don’t worry, we must win!
Even though Zhuang Yu had already walked off the court, everyone was still recalling his style on the court.
Of course, this feels really bad for the Warriors.
There was only one minute left in the third quarter, and the Lakers were leading by as many as 3 points.
"It's okay, just play better."
Coach Kerr clapped his hands to cheer up the players on the court, but the players all looked very frustrated.
When Zhuang Yu made all three free throws and scored 40+ again, and when he walked off the court amid cheers of MVP, it had already shattered the confidence and morale of many Warriors players.
Even the Warriors fans in the audience kept their mouths shut.
Some people said before that Zhuang Yu would never be able to score 40 points in this game, and might not even get 30 points. However, he had already scored 40 points in just three quarters.
This exceeded the expectations of the fans and the Warriors players, destroying their original determination and confidence.
But not everyone is like that.
At least Curry and Durant did not give up. Although their brows were tightly furrowed, there was still a sharp light flashing in their eyes.
In the last minute of the third quarter, the Warriors made a three-pointer, while the Lakers did not score. At the end of the third quarter, the difference between the two sides was 3 points.
......
Soon, the second section began.
The Warriors sent Curry on the field at the beginning of the fourth quarter.
Curry immediately exploded when he came on the court, hitting an ultra-long three-pointer from outside the three-point line. He quickly broke through the high rebound after a pick-and-roll and scored two more points.
The score difference was narrowed to single digits in an instant.
Coach Scott frowned and did not call a timeout or make a substitution. He just gestured to the players on the court, indicating that they should strengthen their defense against Curry.
In the next round, when Curry came to the frontcourt, he was immediately double-teamed by the Lakers.
The two players rushed forward together, forcing Curry to pass the ball, but his teammates failed to seize this opportunity to score.
This made Curry frown.
He still has great strength and he still hasn't given up, but at this moment, except for him, all his teammates are not in good shape.
When he was double-teamed and passed the ball, even his teammates couldn't make the shot when they had a chance, which was a bit bad.
After a few rounds, Curry threw another three-pointer, but failed to make it.
The teammates also missed their shots, but the Lakers scored one goal and brought the score difference back to more than 10 points.
Coach Kerr also saw the problem at this time and quickly made adjustments, replacing both Durant and Draymond Green.
After Durant returned to the court, he immediately took the ball and hit a jump shot against the defense. As Durant scored, the Lakers adjusted their defense and were unable to focus on Curry. At this time, Curry found an opportunity again and hit a three-pointer in the bottom corner.
After a few rounds, the Warriors actually narrowed the gap between the two sides to only 7 points with the scoring of Curry and Durant.
"Requesting a timeout."
Coach Scott called a timeout and sent out all the main players. Before they went on the court, he grabbed Zhuang Yu and patted him on the arm.
Zhuang Yu smiled back and said, "Don't worry, we must win today."
......
Soon both sides changed to their main lineups.
The Warriors still relied on the personal abilities of Curry and Durant, while on the Lakers side, Zhuang Yu was still unstoppable. He shot three three-pointers from outside the three-point line, but only made one, and his hit rate had dropped significantly.
But even so, the Warriors did not dare to relax at all. As long as they saw Zhuang Yu standing outside the three-point line, as long as he opened his hand to ask for the ball, the Warriors had to pounce on him.
After a few minutes, the Warriors players, except Curry and Durant, did not perform well, and even performed poorly. On the Lakers side, Zhuang Yu still performed well, and Holiday and Lopez also performed stably.
So after a few minutes, the gap between the two sides did not narrow further, but remained at around seven or eight points.
At this time, Coach Kerr called another timeout.
Because there are only two minutes left in the game.
However, Coach Kerr didn't have much to do at this time. The mentality of other players in the team had been somewhat unbalanced, and only Curry and Durant were still reliable. So he could only ask other players to provide more screens and pick-and-rolls for the two, allowing the two to play with their own personal abilities.
Another thing is to emphasize the defense of Zhuang Yu.
Although Zhuang Yu's three-point shooting rate dropped in this quarter, from 13 out of 10 to 12 out of , this hit rate is still very exaggerated. In addition, Zhuang Yu has a great defense and can pass the ball well. His current personal assists have reached .
43 points, 7 rebounds, and 12 assists, this performance was truly outstanding.
......
When the timeout ended and both sides returned to the court, the Warriors still relied on the personal scoring abilities of Curry and Durant, especially Durant's one-on-one play which was almost unstoppable.
But the Lakers can also fight back.
Durant just made a change of direction and shot, and then Zhuang Yu turned around and used his teammates' screen and pick-and-roll to make a counter-cut. After receiving the basketball, he rushed to the basket and made a 2+1.
What made the fans a little disappointed was that at this time Zhuang Yu did not continue to shoot three-pointers.
He chose to break through to the basket or take mid-range jump shots more often.
They also want to see Zhuang Yu continue to shoot three-pointers.
After all, Zhuang Yu had already made 13 of 10 shots at this point. If he could make a few more shots, he would be able to tie or even break the NBA's single-game three-point record.
However, it is obvious that Zhuang Yu played so well today, how could the Warriors continue to let him shoot three-pointers?
Moreover, this was the last two minutes, and Zhuang Yu's ultimate goal was not to break any single-game three-point record, but to win the game. His three-point shooting in the previous three quarters was very good, even a little exaggerated, but he knew that it was not normal.
So in these last two minutes, he focused more on attacking the basket, taking advantage of his opponent's fear of his three-pointers to attack the opponent's inside line and score more reasonably.
......
"Shh!"
With a slight sound, Durant hit a three-pointer from the outside.
However, when he turned around and ran back to get the ball, the Warriors players immediately pounced on him. After receiving the ball, Zhuang Yu jumped up without any pause and made a fadeaway jump shot, leaving the defender helpless and they could only watch the basketball fly towards the basket and finally hit the target.
"Another goal."
"It's already 48 points. Zhuang Yu has already scored 48 points. It's crazy."
"Unstoppable, totally unstoppable. His three-point shooting was so accurate in the first three quarters that I forgot that his fadeaway jumper is also amazing."
"There are only 10 seconds left, the score difference is 7 points, the Warriors have already lost."
When Zhuang Yu made the fadeaway jump shot, the difference between the two sides widened to 7 points again, and there were only 10 seconds left in the game.
Clearly, time is running out for the Warriors.
In the last 10 seconds, Curry took a three-pointer, but missed, and the game completely lost its suspense.
