The Godfather of Basketball - v2 Chapter 839
Smith and O’Neal shook their heads and looked at the Nets players who left.
To some extent, whether the NBA can be filled with suspense again depends on whether the Nets can prevent the Warriors from winning the championship.
“We have to find a way to deal with them,” Frank said impatiently in the office.
If they can’t find a way to deal with the five-star lineup of the Warriors, the process of the second quarter will be a microcosm, and the first series will end.
“What can we do? Their lineup configuration is the strongest inside and outside, we are facing the strongest team in history.” Rogers said helplessly aside.
Frank glanced at Rogers and then sighed. He was anxious too, but he couldn’t help it.
“Take down Nicholas and Merlot.” Tang Tian said with a glance at his two teaching assistants.
“Next Nicholas?” Frank and Rogers looked at Tang Tian in surprise.
“Coussins is fast, but he won’t be able to keep up if he runs. This is the only weakness of this Warriors team.” Tang Tian continued.
Both Frank and Rogers understood.
The Warriors gave up their Death Five Primary because they had Cousins, but if the Nets speed up, Cousins can’t keep up with the pace on both sides, and Cole will be forced to restart the Death Five Primary!
In fact, this has been verified on both the Mavericks and the Rockets. Although they were eventually eliminated, they were able to steal two victories from the Warriors, relying on speeding up to defend and fight back.
Back in the second half, the Warriors were still a five-star lineup. The Nets made some adjustments. Neither Anthony nor Jokic played. Mitchell and Yi Jianlian replaced them.
This is not the Big Four and the Four that the Nets are best at, but the purely five small team.
“Don is a bit self-defeating. This line-up will make the Nets’ inside line full of holes.” Buckley couldn’t help shaking his head when he saw the adjustment.
“Yes, speaking of this set is Lu’s favorite, Tang is Lu Hua?” O’Neill laughed and teased.
During the second half of the game, the two teams have already started.
Irving speeded up to miss a three-pointer in the frontcourt, but turned back to Curry to make a layup.
The difference was pulled to 14 points.
Irving continued to advance quickly to the frontcourt, and George took the ball out to catch it.
“boom!”
I still missed it.
Buckley and O’Neal shook their heads as they watched the commentary.
If they go on like this, they will probably see a whole quarter of garbage time in the fourth quarter.
The Warriors fought back again, this time Curry passed Green, but Green shot and was caught by George, and was directly pursued by a chase.
Butler followed up and grabbed defensive rebounds. The Nets turned around and played defensively.
The Warriors couldn’t keep up with speed at this time, especially Cousins. After the half-time of the Nets, he just came out of the free throw line.
Owen George made a two-on-one in the frontcourt, George shot a layup and also caused Durant’s foul.
George added a free throw to reduce the difference to 11 points.
Curry gave the ball to Cousins in the frontcourt, George assisted the ball, passed it to Green and gave it to Durant.
The round that seemed to have met, but this time Durant chose to back three.
“boom!”
Durant’s three-pointer missed, Yi Jianlian didn’t jump inside, struggling to jam Cousins, Butler rushed off the defensive rebound.
The Nets counterattacked again. Irving rushed to the frontcourt and divided the ball to follow-up George. George followed the layup and scored again.
The difference came to 9 points!
There was cheering at the scene. After the Nets came up in the second half, they brought the game into their rhythm.
Cole also realized what the Nets had to do at this time, and stood up to signal Curry to slow down the rhythm.
Curry advanced to the frontcourt, signalling Cousins was down.
As long as the Warriors can score the ball, so that the Nets can not play a defensive counterattack, the Nets lineup will suffer.
Yi Jianlian knew that he couldn’t stand Cousins, and chose to go forward.
Curry saw the ball and flew directly over the basket.
Cousins turned and jumped to prepare for a free kick.
But Yi Jianlian also saw that he jumped up and interfered after catching up.
Cousins’ ankle injury recovered 70% to 80%, but after all, it was not fully recovered. After confronting Yi Jianlian in the air, he did not hold the ball, and Curry’s pass turned into a mistake and went out of bounds.
The cheers were even louder.
The Nets attacked the frontcourt, Yi Jianlian missed the mid-range and the rebound was received by Cousins.
The Warriors did not speed up under Cole’s reminder. After attacking the frontcourt, Curry continued to prepare for the ball Cousins, and Yi Jianlian continued to go forward.
Curry did not pass directly this time, but passed a high drop ball.
Cousins caught the ball, but George’s defense has also come over, and Yi Jianlian came directly to a hamburger folder.
Cousins couldn’t pull out, and the shot held high didn’t have flexibility, and the ball popped out straight after the ball came out.
Butler rushed to the inside to receive defensive rebounds, and the Nets played a defensive counterattack.
After receiving the ball, Owen turned and ran away, looking back at the moon to give the follow-up Yi Jianlian, who shot Green and caused a foul.
After making two free throws, the Nets have reduced the difference to 7 points!
Cole reached for a timeout.
The role of Cousins’ offensive end in this period did not play out, but because the defense could not keep up, the Warriors were not able to defend, and it became a burden.
After the suspension came back, the Warriors made substitution adjustments. Iguodala came on and replaced Cousins. This is another five-year death.
“Yes!”
Seeing the Warriors substitution, Frank and Rogers couldn’t help but reach out and fist.
This is what Tang Tian wanted in the midfield. As long as Cousins is playing, the game is not a problem for the Nets.
You know, when the opening game was not Cousins, the Nets blood-torn the Warriors!
Yi Jianlian and Mitchell were called back, and Anthony and Cousins were replaced.
Curry held the ball to the frontcourt, the Warriors played a pick-and-roll, and Curry gave the ball to Durant, who made a mid-range hit.
The Warriors bench cheered for a while ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Curry also smiled and reached out with Durant during the retreat. This is their familiar play.
But back on the defensive end, Jokic also scored against Green in the low post.
After Cousins went down, he had a clear advantage in playing Green inside!
The Warriors also speeded up, Curry rushed to the frontcourt and missed a 3-pointer.
But Jokic followed the pace of the court and turned back for a long rebound.
The Nets attacked the frontcourt, Jokic continued to play in the low post, and after attracting Iguodala’s doubles, the ball was distributed to George, who then took a step to the mid-range and pulled back.
There was more cheering at the scene, and they seemed to see the team playing the Warriors at the beginning of the season.
Cole called Cousins after he saw it and was ready to return to the game.
But when Cousins got up, Yi Jianlian and Mitchell also came to the technical station …
