The fans at the scene raised their right hands and made a special gesture.
This is the latest move invented by Thunder fans. They raise their right hands high and extend three fingers. If a Thunder player scores a goal, they will swing it down hard.
It looks cool when the home fans do this in unison.
Lu Yao made a three-pointer, and the fans raised their right hands high, waiting for a collective goal celebration.
Boom!
Incredibly, the three-pointer from the corner was so accurate. The basketball hit the right edge of the basket and fell into the basket!
"Lu Yaoniu!"
"I responded with a three-pointer, awesome!"
"Haha, the way you look at Curry is so confusing!"
…
Lu Yao's three-pointer from the corner allowed the Thunder to narrow the point difference to 11 points again!
Curry is also a person who refuses to admit defeat. Although he has a baby face, he is a tough guy at heart.
After being stunned, he spit out his braces and yelled at his teammates: "Cover me!"
The Warriors players understood that Curry was getting tough and was working hard with Lu Yao.
Neutral fans are happy, they can see the league's top showdown!
The Warriors are considered an upstart in the league, and their sudden rise has made many fans' eyes light up.
Under the leadership of Dewey, the Thunder only reached the finals once and then became a second-rate team.
If Lu Yao hadn't been born this year, I don't know when the Thunder would have reached the finals.
And when these two strongest players in the Western Conference meet today, sparks will surely burst out.
What does the NBA look at? In fact, it’s just watching the stars.
The Pistons' top five were so strong back then, but the ratings were actually very low because they didn't have any stars with good playing skills.
Now the three young men of the Thunder and the Splash Brothers of the Warriors are both synonymous with gorgeous basketball.
Fans are in luck!
…
Warriors attack.
Curry holds the ball at the top of the arc.
Anyone familiar with the Warriors knows that since Cole became the head coach, most of the Warriors' possession of the ball has been with Green.
But when it comes to critical moments, life-or-death moments, the Warriors will hand the ball to Curry.
It's not that Curry can't hold the ball, it's just to increase the team's changes and use Cole's air-cutting tactics.
As soon as Curry held the ball, the Thunder players became nervous, and Lu Yao knew something was wrong.
Thompson stepped forward to block Robertson, and Curry quickly moved sideways and took advantage of the Thunder players to cover up and hit a three-pointer from far away!
It's a pity that Curry was a little anxious, bang!
Popped out.
But Green was still very fierce. He even grabbed the rebound between Ibaka and Adams, and then threw it to Thompson.
Thompson is also a big-hearted owner, he just throws the ball when he gets it!
Generally speaking, if the Splash Brothers take consecutive shots, the probability of missing is very low. As the saying goes, if the east is not bright, the west is bright!
Unexpectedly, at the moment Thompson took action, a long arm appeared like a mountain and slapped away the ball that Thompson had already taken!
Snapped!
Thompson's face turned green.
This season, the Splash Brothers were almost never blocked when they took shots, and because Thompson was taller than Curry and had quick shots, he was even more unblocked.
But Lu Yao appeared out of nowhere and slapped away the ball he had already taken.
The fans at the scene exclaimed again, Lu Yao really worked hard today!
His performance on the offensive end is outstanding, but he is also working hard on the defensive end. This is a star prospect!
Anyone who has watched football for many years knows that many players are very impressive when they first enter the league and can do anything offensively.
However, not many are willing to contribute on the defensive end, and the defensive end requires not only hard work, but also experience, otherwise it will look like a fool.
Lu Yao is really not like a rookie on the defensive end. His shots are steady and hard, and few offensive players can break through his defense.
Just kidding, that’s an iron-clad defense skill pack!
The basketball was blown out of the left sideline by Lu Yao, and the Warriors sent the ball to the sideline.
There are only 6 seconds left in the Warriors' attack time.
Barnes serves to Curry.
Because Robertson was too stubborn to defend Curry, Curry only got a little space by running counterattack.
Curry caught the ball, changed direction, and threw Robertson away.
What an elf on the field.
There were only 2 seconds left in the attack time, and Curry took action at the speed of light!
Since Thompson suffered a loss just now, Curry took a special look at Lu Yao.
"Well, it's okay, you're far away from me!" Curry was relieved and took a two-point shot!
In fact, Curry's two-pointers are also very accurate, but the three-pointers are more cost-effective.
Just after the basketball was released, Warriors players were ready to cheer.
Because in this position, Curry almost never misses!
Snapped!
what's the situation?
A big hand stretched out and touched the basketball again, changing the trajectory of the basketball!
Curry was shocked. He turned around and saw that it was Lu Yao again!
But he was clearly far away just now!
In fact, Lu Yao's feet moved too fast.
The moment Curry took action, Lu Yao bypassed Barnes and came to a place more than one meter away in front of Curry. He jumped high before the ball reached its highest point.
This block was a little dangling, but it didn't fly because it was just a little touched by the tip of my finger.
After the basketball changed its trajectory, it hit the backboard without touching the basket and bounced out.
Just when Adams was desperately grabbing the rebound, Lu Yao had already passed half the game.
This is consciousness!
While the Warriors players were still confused, Lu Yao had already started in advance.
Adams threw a long pass from the quarterback, whoosh!
Neptune's arm strength is really strong. His pass was not directly to Lu Yao, but an alley-oop!
Flying towards the basket.
Lu Yao understands this, so I won't be polite!
The Warriors were the first to return to defense, but Green was also much slower.
Lu Yao jumped high, grabbed the ball in the air, and slammed the ball into the basket!
boom!
Score a dunk!
With this attack and defense, Lu Yao not only got two more blocks, but also scored two points. It was a huge profit!
The score difference returned to 9 points.
Less than 6 minutes into the second quarter, the point difference was back to single digits!
The Warriors' plan to expand the point difference was shattered.
It stands to reason that when the opponent has a small climax, the Warriors should call a timeout to break the opponent's momentum.
But Warriors head coach Kerr was a tough guy. He frowned and refused to call a timeout.
And he kept staring at Lu Yao, his face ashen, as if he was saying: "If you have the ability, you can catch up with the score! We are still ahead anyway!"
The Warriors players also felt it was time to call a timeout. Curry and Green both glanced at Cole, but Cole had no intention of calling a timeout.
Then keep fighting...
The Warriors attack.
This time Green held the ball at the top of the arc and played conventional tactics.
Curry and Thompson made eye contact, then ran toward each other.
This is one of the Warriors' off-ball tactics. The Splash Brothers run against each other, leaving defenders at a loss.
Sure enough, Robertson and Waiters were a little confused and didn't know who to chase.
