The first thousand one hundred and fifty-four chapters [God of basketball, mainly anti-customer]
The Warriors vs. Lakers series attracted many fans, with ratings hitting a record high in nearly 10 years.
There are few comments on the game between the Eastern Nets and the Raptors. The popularity of the Eastern and Western stars is incomparable, and no one likes losers.
Stephen Curry practiced shooting more in the morning. He knew that other skills against Guo Xu were not very effective. It was easier to score by running and receiving the ball and relying on screens to find misalignment opportunities.
Some Warriors fans think Curry has a height advantage, and as long as he feels good, there is a possibility of suppressing Guo Xu, it is not like this. Curry is afraid of defenders who are good at being close and strong, even if they are shorter.
Curry was basically beaten when he met Guo Xu. When he met Paul, Rondo's main defense would also be reduced in data and shooting percentage. Guo Xu's offense was really unsolvable, and he exploded all the point guards in the league. One-on-one was impossible to defend.
Curry knew the difference in his personal ability between him and Guo Xu, and he would withstand a huge test on the defensive end. Before the game started, he had a serious expression and was depressed.
In the home team's locker room, coach Mark Jackson encouraged Curry: "Stephen, you can do it, you are the best, do you have to be confident? Do you know?"
Curry smiled and said that he would do his best, but he had an unknown premonition in his heart.
If Ku wants to have confidence in Guo Xu, Jackson is useless to encourage him so much. He should say to Guo Xu: "Why are you doing it like an alien? The Earth is very dangerous, you should go back to Mars quickly."
There were highlights when the players appeared to warm up. Guo Xu and Curry both made three-pointers near the midfield, and their shooting percentage was very high. Ten shots scored five goals, which won applause from fans.
CCTV5 live broadcast game, Yu Jia said: "The two abnormal and accurate NBA stars finally met in the Western Conference Finals. They both made many ultra-long three-pointers in the regular season."
Zhang Heli smiled and said, "People used to say that no one could imitate Guo Xu to play, but Curry was really not worse than Guo Xu in shooting. However, he couldn't compare with breakthroughs, and the speed gap between him and Guo Xu was too big."
Yu Jia nodded and said, "Looking at Curry's breakthrough, he always feels light and fluttering. Guo Xu gives people the feeling that he is short and the center of gravity is low, and his speed is fast. Few people can defend him."
Both sides started, Guo Xu shook hands with Curry with a smile, and Curry's expression was extremely serious.
Guo Xu knew at a glance that Curry was under a lot of psychological pressure because the Warriors' lineup was recognized as being stronger than the Suns, and there were stars inside and outside. It was normal for them to win, but it was embarrassing to lose.
The 72-win record is tied with the Bulls in 1996, and the Warriors players don't want to lose the championship.
Five Lakers: Guo Xu, Booker, Carter, Tucker, and Horford.
Five Warriors: Curry, Redick, Middleton, Draymond Green, Brooke Lopez.
Both teams have some adjustments to the lineup. The Lakers' direct small ball tactics are for unlimited defense replacements, limiting the Warriors' pitchers. Tyrone Lu firmly believes that the Warriors must be the main outside shooting, and Lopez, including others, like to pull out and shoot three-pointers.
Tucker is very good at defending pick-and-roll, can withstand people at the power forward position, and can also shoot three-pointers by himself. He has now become a very important rotation player for the Lakers, averaging 33 minutes per game in the playoffs.
Jackson asked Rudy Gobert to sit on the bench and did not try to let him play with Green, so the formation could not be pulled. In this way, the two inside lines who are good at defense could stagger the time, and Gobert and Nowitzki's partner in the second quarter could also strengthen the defense.
Horford won the jump ball, and the Lakers attacked first.
Guo Xu received the ball in the midfield and was a very long three-pointer. He found a feeling when he was warming up just now. The curve of the ball was very high, and he rushed straight to the basket, and the ball was hollowed into the net. 3 to 0.
Curry's position distance was a bit far when he jumped the ball. Others didn't expect that Guo Xu would double-team in the midfield without the first round.
Yu Jia said: "Defense Guo Xu really can't relax for a moment. He made a very long three-pointer at the beginning."
Zhang Heli sighed: "This is really a magical skill. Jordan can't be called the God of Basketball when compared with him. No one has ever seen Jordan shoot a three-pointer like this."
Yu Jia said: "Now no one has ever said that Jordan is stronger than Guo Xu. His honors have surpassed Jordan in all aspects. It is only a matter of time before he surpasses Jordan in total. If he does not retire and rest for two years, he will probably surpass this year."
The Warriors attacked, and Guo Xu pressed Curry to defend in the midfield. This time, Guo Xu has always been doing his best on the defensive end. The point guards of the opponents in the first two rounds were unable to score in double-digit points under his defense.
Curry moved horizontally with space, Green came out to cover Guo Xu, but as soon as he bumped into him, Guo Xu staggered to the ground. The referee blew his whistle, and Green moved to cover the foul.
Guo Xu felt that there was no need to talk to people like Green to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, just use any means to deal with him. Before the game started, he was ready to use the method of hitting Green and fake throwing when facing Green.
Because of Green's bad performance in the last round of the series, the referee will definitely focus on him, for fear that he will cause trouble, especially for fear that he will have a conflict with Guo Xu. Guo Xu's kick in the regular season made Green a laughing stock, and he may take revenge.
Green is not just a shady person on the court, but his trash words and some amazing remarks with low emotional intelligence. People who are not good at psychological quality can't stand it. After kicking Thompson's crotch, Green had no intention of repentance afterwards. He actually said that the league banned him in a game because he didn't mean to do it, and Thompson hit him first.
In this case, as soon as Guo Xu fell down, the referee would blew the whistle without hesitation, even if it was the Warriors' home court.
Green looked innocent. In fact, his cover movements were very irregular, and he was obviously moving. In the past, Xiao Hua was desperately praised the Warriors and the tough Green, but now the strength of this kind of praise has been reduced.
The Lakers attacked, Guo Xu was double-teamed and passed the ball to Horford. Horford did not hesitate to get the open position on the right and received the ball and jumped for a three-pointer. He prepared very well, and he made a quick shot, and the ball scored 6-0.
Today, he practiced three-pointers at three points, but the position was slightly changed, which was a very effective tactic. Usually, he would cover Guo Xu first, wait for Guo Xu to attract double teams and then get the ball in the middle, with one step within the three-point line, and the main support is.
He covered the ball and ran to the right. The opponent did not return to the position to chase the defense in the inside, so he and Guo Xu had a distance. After Guo Xu passed the ball, it was difficult for the opponent to defend well. Moreover, the person who came out to defend the pick-and-roll was Green. As a heavy inside, Lopez had to move near the penalty area.
When the Warriors attacked, Curry first passed the ball to Green, and then ran without the ball to find cover to create opportunities. Lopez blocked Curry from the side, and Curry received the ball, and Tucker immediately rotated and defended from the wing to block the front.
Guo Xu quickly bypassed the cover and double-teamed. Horford did not replace the defense. He followed Lopez in the horn position. Green was empty in the middle and received a pass from Curry.
Green hesitated for a while, and then he had no chance to shoot. Tucker had already returned to the position, so he had to organize the offense to find his teammates.
It took 24 seconds to go quickly, and Middleton singles Carter turned to the right and jumped back to make a jump shot. 6 to 2.
He deserves his name in the All-Star Game this year, and his offense and defense are excellent. He can play without the ball and can also play with the ball. Veteran Carter has a hard time defending him.
The Lakers' offense was very simple. Guo Xu attracted double teams and passed it to Horford, who cut the gap. The latter rushed into the basket and attracted Lopez to make up for defense and scored to the right bottom corner.
Green didn't have time to make up for the bottom corner from the middle, and there was no one around Tucker. He easily made a three-pointer with a jump shot, 9-2.
