Follow the NBA's defensive routine at the last minute.
When leading by 3 points, normally the defense only needs to defend three points.
As long as you can defend, then the game will be won.
Of course, if there is no defense, the game will enter overtime.
But Zhao Chen didn't dare to bet, because the three-point shooters on the opposite side were Curry and Thompson. It would not be surprising at all for these two to hit half-court three-pointers.
This is what they are capable of.
As long as the ball is not in their hands, what if they send someone else to take the free throw?
If Curry had caught the ball immediately, Zhao Chen would not have committed a foul, as it would have been easy to make three free throws.
As for Green, he doesn't have such a fast shooting speed. He was still near the baseline when Zhao Chen fouled.
No matter how awesome the referee is, there is no way he will call three free throws.
Rather than letting Curry hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, Zhao Chen chose a more conservative approach.
This is Zhao Chen's temporary judgment.
In his previous life, Li Nan used similar tactics when he was leading the Basketball World Cup.
The result was tragically reversed by Poland....
The fundamental reason is that the Chinese team's serve is too bad.
But this is not the Chinese team. It is more difficult to stop the Thunder's serve than it is for the Warriors to hit a three-pointer.
Serving still depends on tactical execution and player ability.
"Go ahead and shoot free throws." Zhao Chen smiled at the black-faced Green.
Brooks was applauding and laughing on the sidelines. He was a little confused when he saw Zhao Chen fouling, but now he saw Green's depressed look and he woke up.
If Green passes the ball to Curry, Curry is now unguarded, and the probability of hitting a three-pointer in the midfield is more than 30%.
Brooks fell in love with Zhao Chen more and more.
Green stepped to the free throw line under heavy pressure.
Under a chorus of boos.
"frame!"
Green missed the first free throw.
After missing the first free throw, there is no point in making the second free throw.
Mark Jackson signaled Green to miss the second free throw.
Both teams switched to big men to grab rebounds.
The rivalry between the two teams was reflected in the details of every turn.
Green chose to hit the frame directly with the second free throw.
There was chaos under the basket.
None of the big men had control of the ball.
As a result, Westbrook, who rushed in from the outside, jumped up and grabbed the rebound.
Westbrook didn't wait for Iguodala to foul, and speeded up to avoid it...
“Buzz!!!!”
Time ran out and the Thunder won the G1 game! !
"Damn it, Zhao Chen is so shameless!"
"But I like it."
"Awesome Thunder!"
"It's not a killer, but it's more exciting than a killer."
"One thing to say, the Warriors definitely have the strength to challenge the Thunder. This game is so exciting."
"Zhao Chen's operation was as fierce as a tiger. Curry was really depressed at the last moment. He didn't even have a chance to take action. Draymond Green was taking action..."
"It's so funny. The Warriors' last-minute tactics are like a piece of shit."
"Mark Jackson is getting fired."
"It has nothing to do with the Warriors head coach. The main thing is that Zhao Chen's actions are too arrogant."
"Congratulations to the Thunder for winning G1."
Domestic fans cheered and celebrated.
On the court, Curry took a towel, covered his head and walked towards the locker room.
At the last moment, Curry was really depressed. He didn't even have a chance to take action.
The one who took action was all the idiot Green.
Green kept cursing.
On the Thunder side, teammates gathered around Zhao Chen and celebrated crazily.
The main contributor to the victory in this game was Zhao Chen.
"Zhao, your arrangement is great, you can go and coach." Adams sent his compliments.
"Yes, both Stephen and Klay were frustrated at the last moment. They couldn't shoot three-pointers, hahaha." Robertson said.
"Let Zhao coach the game next time." Brooks also joked.
Being able to play with the players in a timely manner is why Brooks is respected by the Thunder superstar.
.....
Durant and Westbrook are also very happy.
Although the honor may go to Zhao Chen, winning this game is more important than anything else.
After experiencing failure in the finals, they will not care if their teammates perform better than them in the game.
It doesn't matter if they score in single digits as long as they win.
This is the Western Conference Finals, and the team must be united.
Durant and Westbrook are still very open-minded in this regard.
...........
"Congratulations to the Thunder for winning their first victory in the Western Conference Finals. This game was very tense and the winner was decided at the last moment. We can also imagine the grand occasion of the next few games. Even if we want to win, we won't be so nervous. Easy." Zhang Weiping shouted.
"Yes, the series match between the two teams will be very exciting, let's look forward to the next game." Yu Jia shouted.
Compare the data on both sides.
For the Thunder, Zhao Chen scored 56 points, 20 assists, 8 rebounds, 4 steals, 2 blocks and 3 turnovers, Durant scored 34 points and 5 rebounds, and Westbrook scored 28 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 turnovers.
The Thunder's Big Three accounted for 118 of the Thunder's total 129 points, and the others scored a total of 11 points.
This kind of scoring is also very thunderous, and the concentration and finishing of the ball rights of the Big Three have also reached the extreme.
This is the scoring record in the Western Conference semifinals.
For the Warriors: Curry scored 40 points, 10 assists, 3 rebounds and 5 turnovers, Thompson scored 21 points and 4 rebounds, Green scored 8 points, 11 rebounds, 12 assists and 6 turnovers, David Lee scored 14 points, 5 rebounds, and Bogut scored 5 points, 5 rebounds and 3 blocks, Iguodala scored 6 points, and Barnes scored 8 points and 6 rebounds.
The Warriors' scoring is more even. They mainly score from outside three-pointers and inside the basket.
The Warriors made a total of 20 outside three-pointers, and Curry and Thompson made a total of 13.
It's not that the Thunder didn't defend well, it's that their touch was really too hot.
Of course, the statistics of Curry and Thompson are nothing compared to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen got super luxurious data of 50+20.
This kind of data is dominant.
The media and fans started talking about it immediately after the game.
"I watched Zhao Chen play for a season and saw some pretty incredible performances from him, but to be honest, it was crazy to see Zhao Chen perform like this. I think he should win the MVP."
"Would rookies be uncomfortable playing in the playoffs? Zhao Chen tells you, it doesn't exist."
"The peak showdown led to the super god Zhao Chen."
"Show, show, show, as long as the ball is in Zhao Chen's hands, we just need to watch his various performances."
"Zhao Chen's shooting percentage is as high as 74%!!! What's the concept? In this game, he only missed 1 goal in 4 shots."
"too crazy."
"The warrior's strength activates Zhao Chen's almighty power!"
"As a Warriors fan, I said that when watching the game, I panic as soon as the ball reaches Zhao Chen's hands, because it means scoring, and it also turns our efforts into ashes."
"The Warriors can't beat the Thunder even if they play like this. The capabilities of the Thunder's Big Three are really good."
