"Damn it, Zhao Chen is here again, and this time he knocked Thompson down."
"Zhao Chen's change of direction is so clever that Thompson can't keep up."
"Thompson is the sixth player who was defeated by Zhao Chen this season. The players who were defeated by Zhao Chen can form a lineup that can compete in the playoffs."
"Zhao Chen looks like he's going to explode again tonight."
"Poor Tang Shen."
The fans were excited.
With the blessing of a hot touch, Zhao Chen's offensive choices will tend to focus on shooting more.
Losing in the last game prevented Zhao Chen from being careless in the slightest.
Ibaka is away and Durant's injury has a great impact on the Thunder, not to mention this is an away game.
If you want to defeat the enemy, you need a stronger attack.
Thompson was pulled up by Green and Curry, and was knocked down by Zhao Chen in front of the home audience, which made him feel a little hot.
"Don't worry about that, focus on defense." Curry comforted Thompson.
Curry's voice is very approachable, and he likes to talk to his teammates like this to motivate them.
"Well, I know, I will guard him." Thompson encouraged himself.
Warriors attack.
Curry took the ball across half court and then followed Bogut's pick-and-roll.
When the defense was switched, neither Curry nor Bogut had a chance. Curry threw the ball to David Lee.
David Lee turned around strongly against Robertson and scored! !
It's true that Robertson is strong defensively, but his defense is also difficult to guard against.
3 to 2.
Thunder offense.
Westbrook brought the ball over and continued to give it to Zhao Chen, who was at a 45-degree position on the right.
Thompson kept pestering Zhao Chen, but did not give Zhao Chen any room to speed up.
Zhao Chen gave the ball to Durant.
Durant held the ball at the free throw line and continued to fake shots. Zhao Chen led people to Durant's side.
Durant did not initiate an attack, but instead passed the ball to Zhao Chen after attracting the defense.
Zhao Chen caught the ball and used Durant's pick-and-roll to simply stop and fall back!
Thompson's hand closed on Zhao Chen's face.
But it didn't work.
The basketball draws a wonderful arc.
"Uh-huh!"
Zhao Chen steadily hit a mid-range shot.
5 to 2.
"Thompson defended the ball, but he didn't interfere with Zhao Chen's rhythm. Zhao Chen's rhythm was already out of step with Thompson's," Barkley said.
"Zhao Chen's ability to catch the ball and shoot is too strong, and his touch is also great. He seems to have found it again." Smith said.
On the court, Thompson failed to defend well in two consecutive waves, and Thompson was a little disappointed.
His defense is of no use. It just depends on whether Zhao Chen's touch is good enough or not.
Warriors attack.
Curry still gives the ball to the inside first.
The Thunder's inside line is weak, and Curry likes to let the inside line open first.
David Lee hit Robertson in the low post. This time Adams came to attack. David Lee quickly passed the ball to Bogut on the other side.
Adams turned around again and was too late to defend Bogut, and Bogut scored a layup.
5 to 4.
The Warriors' inside power was demonstrated at the beginning of the game.
Zhao Chen went over to encourage Robertson and Adams: "You two try to switch defenses. David's offense is stronger, and Andre is difficult to defend."
Zhao Chen thinks that David Lee is very good at mismatching, but it is not that easy for Bogut. Even though he has the body, he does not have the offensive skills.
Not everyone can beat a big man against a small man.
Adams and Robertson listened to Zhao Chen's words and switched defenses.
Westbrook brought the ball across half court and then gave the ball to Zhao Chen.
Affected by Durant's injury, Westbrook's playing also tends to be rational.
After experiencing the last game where he broke out but was unable to win, Westbrook knew that he also needed Zhao Chen's help.
Zhao Chen and Adams were covering the screen. Zhao Chen suddenly passed Thompson and jumped high, attracting Bogut and David Lee to help defend at the same time.
Zhao Chen smashed the ball to Adams in the middle.
Adams grabbed the ball with one hand and succeeded in a split dunk.
7 to 4.
Although Zhao Chen has a good touch, he is not alone.
If he had shot this ball himself, his hit rate might be between 60 and 70%, but if it were given to Adams, this ball would be 100%.
"Zhao Chen easily attracted the defensive help. The Warriors obviously didn't want Zhao Chen to open up. Once Zhao Chen opened up, the Thunder's offense came to life." Zhang Weiping said.
"Yes, Zhao Chen played very reasonably tonight, and Coach Brooks also gave him more tactical arrangements." Yu Jia said.
"Neither Durant nor Westbrook did much offense. The Thunder's tactics to grab the start were very good, but although the offense is good, they need to work harder on the defensive end." Zhang Weiping said.
The Warriors' offense comes again.
Zhao Chen is still sticking close to Thompson, and Westbrook is disturbing Curry.
Curry chose to pass the ball to David Lee. When the inside was scoring consecutively, Curry would not change his tactics rashly.
David Lee wanted to continue sitting down, but he found that it was Adams behind him.
This time there was no tonnage or height advantage, and David Lee did not hesitate to pass the ball to Bogut on the other side.
Bogut's waist was firmly stuck by Robertson.
Bogut uses a close hook after taking a step.
"frame!"
The basketball hit the rim and bounced high, and Adams protected the rebound.
Robertson defended Bogut.
The key is that Bogut's offense is not good and his speed is too slow, which leads to his low success rate in finishing. Robertson feels that guarding against Bogut is far less difficult than David Lee.
"Great defense." Zhao Chen encouraged Robertson.
"Hey, I will guard against him from now on." Robertson said enthusiastically.
Adams passed the ball to Zhao Chen next to him.
Zhao Chen brought the ball across the frontcourt, and Thompson kept pestering Zhao Chen to prevent Zhao Chen from taking a long three-pointer.
Thompson knew Zhao Chen's power. If he didn't pay attention, Zhao Chen might have guarded him after halftime.
Westbrook took the initiative to cover Zhao Chen.
In the pick-and-roll between guards, the Warriors switch defenses.
Zhao Chen singled out Curry.
Facing Curry's defense, Zhao Chen chose to step back after a series of crotches to get a three-pointer!
Curry's defensive threat is not great, and now Zhao Chen doesn't take it seriously at all.
Zhao Chen's shots were very resolute and decisive, and he was quite confident in his own touch.
Curry's defense does not pose much of a threat, and Zhao Chen's posture and rhythm are not affected.
"Uh-huh!"
An arrow pierces the heart.
10 to 4.
Zhao Chen scored 8 of the first 10 points.
The momentum at the Oracle Center was halted by Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen looked unstoppable tonight, and his scoring looked really easy.
Fans at home are also very excited.
Since Zhao Chen played with Westbrook and Durant, no matter how good he played, he felt that his status was not the absolute core.
At this moment, Brooks asked Zhao Chen to attack at the beginning, and they felt that Zhao Chen was about to let go of his attacking rhythm.
Mark Jackson also observed the Thunder's tactical changes. He immediately shouted to the players on the court: "Pinch him, don't let him form a one-on-one situation!"
Being bombarded by Zhao Chen like this, Mark Jackson was a little scared.
