The Warriors attack again.
This time, Curry got rid of Zhao Chen's guard and found a small gap in the right corner with the help of Green's screen.
If it is an ordinary shooter, this kind of gap cannot complete the shot, but it is enough for Curry.
Zhao Chen's defense slowed down a beat, and Curry made a three-pointer!
"Uh-huh!"
He raised the knife and dropped it, taking away three points!
80 versus 80.
Curry also started to exert his strength.
Lakers offense.
After continuous tactical moves, Zhao Chen continued to beat Green in a one-on-one mismatch.
This time Green was prepared for Zhao Chen's breakthrough, but the result was that Zhao Chen chose to retreat significantly after taking a sudden step!
Three-point step back jump shot!
"Uh-huh!"
Just hit it! !
80 to 83.
Zhao Chen responded decisively to Curry's three-pointer.
In the next game, both sides fell into an anxious period.
No one could open up the score. Zhao Chen not only scored by himself, he also gradually drove his teammates away.
The game quickly came to the last 44 seconds of the fourth quarter!
Curry used a long three-pointer to help the Warriors overtake the score, 130 to 128.
This game is difficult for Zhao Chen. He not only has to maintain high efficiency on the offensive end, but also maintain high-intensity defensive pressure.
Lakers offense.
Iguodala defended Zhao Chen and tried to disrupt Zhao Chen's rhythm.
Zhao Chen scored 58 points today. His personal offensive efficiency ensured that the Lakers would not fall behind in the match against the Warriors.
The Warriors' defensive intensity at critical moments has completely increased. Except for Zhao Chen, who can play hard, no other position can be played.
However, only one Zhao Chen is enough to give the Warriors a headache. Not only one of the Warriors has defended Zhao Chen, but almost everyone has defended Zhao Chen, but none of them can defend him.
Zhao Chen still opened up the space at a 45-degree position, indicating that he wanted to play singles.
The fans at Staples Arena continued to cheer for Zhao Chen.
"Zhao, come on, kill him!"
"Kick their ass."
"It's a one-on-one challenge, don't be a coward."
"Blow them up!"
Zhao Chen is the hope of Lakers fans!
"boom!"
Zhao Chen didn't make too many fake moves, he just changed direction and accelerated his dive to pass Iguodala.
Iguodala's lateral movement is not slow, and his body is also very large, but he is very passive on the defensive end. He cannot keep up with Zhao Chen's first step.
The Warriors are guarded inside by Bogut and Green.
Zhao Chen's choice is to slow down the tempo, collect the ball, make a mid-range jump shot, and shoot with the ball with his finger!
The basketball draws a wonderful arc!
"Uh-huh!"
130 versus 130.
"Big heart, key player."
"Zhao Chen used this mid-range shot to help his score reach 60 points again!"
"Faced with a defense of the Warriors' caliber, Zhao Chen can score whatever he wants!"
Zhao Chen made the fans excited again with a crisp mid-range stop.
Enna at the commentary desk also shouted excitedly, Zhao Chen played the ball too domineeringly.
In 32 seconds, both sides had an attack.
Cole chose to call a timeout immediately.
The Lakers scored a key goal, putting pressure on the Warriors. If the Warriors fail to score, they may face a situation where Zhao Chen will kill them.
Zhao Chen's key ball shooting percentage is at the top level in the league.
Cole was troubled when setting up tactics.
Curry's singles ability is relatively weak, and he cannot use his talent to make shots in confrontations. If there is no space, he is basically useless.
Not to mention Thompson, who can't move the ball well...how can we trust him with the last attack?
Barnes is in good shape, but he just doesn't feel like a key player.
It would be great if there was Kevin Durant at the small forward position, Kerr thought this for the second time.
Although there are many players in the Warriors playing ball now, there are really few people playing key balls.
Therefore, when encountering critical moments, Cole always feels a little weak.
Of course, the Warriors rarely play critical moments with others this season. They usually open up the score early.
After the timeout, both teams are still starting.
Curry catches the ball and presses time.
With only 32 seconds, Curry will move into possible pressure to attack from behind.
Cole's tactics are still to create outside opportunities for Curry and Thompson.
The Lakers' defense on the outside is very tight, but they don't give three-point opportunities.
With 7 seconds left on the attack time, Curry started.
Green and Bogut put up the screen at the same time.
The defense of Zhao Chen and Kobe was stuck, and Curry got in like a jumping elf.
It's Jokic who helps defend Curry inside.
Curry's rhythm is a little faster than Jokic's, Jokic's help defense is a little slower, Curry steps forward in the three-second zone and throws high!
The basketball passed through Jokic's fingertips and fell into the basket!
"Uh-huh!"
132 to 130.
In order to throw the ball, Curry fell to the ground.
The momentum at Staples Center was instantly suppressed.
Curry spat out his braces and waved his fists on the ground! !
"Stephen, Curry, he put the ball in the basket at the critical moment, he proved himself."
"Cole's tactics were perfect. He helped Curry get rid of Zhao Chen's entanglement. If Zhao Chen had been following Curry, Curry would have had no chance."
"Will there be a killer showdown tonight?"
"The games are getting more and more exciting."
Barkley and O'Neal both shouted excitedly.
"The situation is very passive for the Lakers. There are only 10 seconds left. Scott requested a timeout. The Lakers cannot score in this round and they will face a defeat." Xu Jicheng shouted.
"At this time, the cameras are also focused on Zhao Chen. Can Zhao Chen complete the winning goal tonight?" Zhang Weiping shouted excitedly.
Fans love these key moments the most.
The atmosphere at Staples gradually became more exciting.
Lakers bench.
"Don't make mistakes, score as quickly as possible, don't press the clock."
"Zhao, you come to catch the ball, and the two inside players come up to cover."
"Kobe, Joe, you two create space in the corners!"
"OK!"
"no problem!"
This is not the first time the Lakers have played a key ball, and their tactics are also very clear.
It was to create opportunities for Zhao Chen to take action.
The timeout ended quickly and the game resumed.
The fans at Staples Arena also stood up, and Enna also clenched her hands, her palms becoming sweaty.
It’s easy to get invested in watching a game, especially if you want the Lakers to win.
Tucker successfully sent the ball to Zhao Chen.
Iguodala defended Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen dribbled back to open up space.
Tucker and Jokic covered Zhao Chen at the same time.
The sweat on Zhao Chen's forehead continued to flow.
The Warriors' defensive strategy has been greatly expanded, which is to defend three-pointers and prevent Zhao Chen from having a chance to make a kill!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The fans at Staples Center cheered heartily.
Zhao Chen did not use the cover of the two big men to rush in, but made a sideways move!
Green and Iguodala flanked Zhao Chen at the same time, and Zhao Chen dribbled with a low hand and continued to run to the right at a 45-degree position.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen forcibly slowed down, braked with both feet, and then pulled up on the spot with the strength of his waist and abdomen!
The rhythm of Iguodala and Green slowed down. They didn't expect Zhao Chen to be able to pull out like this, so the two of them had no choice but to interfere desperately.
But Zhao Chen's pedaling height is higher!
With 1.5 seconds left on the clock, Zhao Chen completed the shot.
This is a drifting three-pointer!
The rotating arc on the basketball surface is very beautiful, and the air time is also running out.
Lakers fans also held their breath!
"Uh-huh!"
132 to 133.
Buzzer-beater!
Zhao Chen completed a key blow and scored 63 points to kill the Warriors! !
Staples Arena exploded instantly! !
