2 to 11.
Kerr was pleased with the Warriors' defensive start.
Cole applauded and said to all the Warriors players: "Just defend like this, continue to flank Zhao, and wear him down!"
"No problem." Thompson's eyes were full of determination.
Thompson has been beaten by Zhao Chen too many times. This is the most defensive experience he has ever experienced. Zhao Chen double-attacked as soon as he got the ball and didn't even give him a chance to open up space and dribble.
This tactic of defending with his teammates makes Thompson feel that he is no longer alone!
Pause back.
Zhao Chen brought the ball across half court and passed it to Kobe, who passed the ball to Jokic at the top of the arc.
In Jokic's organization, Zhao Chen couldn't get rid of the defense on the outside, so he directly raised his hands and entered the inside.
The Lakers players also increased their intensity in cutting inside. Bogut was pulled out by Jokic. The Warriors had a certain gap inside, and Boban was also roaming around the three-second zone.
The Warriors dare not let Boban go.
They did not have the manpower to flank Zhao Chen in the low position on the other side, but immediately began to make various unlimited defense changes.
Jokic lobbed the ball to Zhao Chen.
It was Green who defended Zhao Chen.
Green's mouth was very dirty: "Zhao, you are just a weakling who only knows how to shoot long distances. Come on, dunk on me and I will knock you down hard."
Zhao Chen shot back: "Besides doing that, you can't stop me."
Green sneered: "You can try it alone!"
Green's defense was very aggressive, and he kept attacking Zhao Chen with his chest!
Zhao Chen held the ball sideways without flinching.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Fans in front of the TV can hear the sound of the two men's muscle confrontation.
Zhao Chen dribbled the ball sideways and hit Green.
There's no shoulder foul here.
Although Zhao Chen is an outside player, fans can see Zhao Chen pushing Green to the inside step by step!
Green lowered his center of gravity as much as possible, but failed to stop Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen put huge pressure on him, making it difficult for him to make other defensive moves.
Two steps ahead of the three-second zone, Green suddenly fell backwards. He used Zhao Chen's strength to cause an offensive foul.
It's a pity that Zhao Chen's action was very clean and the referee did not blow the whistle.
Zhao Chen ignored Green who fell to the ground, collected the ball, adjusted his steps, turned to the three-second zone, kicked off the ground, grabbed the ball with both hands, jumped high, and smashed hard with both hands! !
"frame!!"
4 to 11.
Zhao Chen let his body sway with the basket for a while, and then landed, making the basket buzz!
Zhao Chen looked at Green who fell to the ground with contempt: "Your defense is as soft as a cake, and your body is as weak as an octopus."
Green, who fell to the ground, ignored Zhao Chen and stood up to complain to the referee. The fans at the scene booed!
Fans at Oracle Center also thought it was an offensive foul.
The referee waved his hand decisively at Green.
The referee saw clearly that Zhao Chen's power crushed Green!
"Zhao Chen's strength is really no worse than that of James. He suppressed Green and beat him like this."
"It's hard for James' strength to push Green to such a miserable state."
"It's like when I go to the community and hit high school students with my back."
"Awesome in low post, Zhao Chen's strength is comparable to that of a powerful center."
"Zhao Chen's small body doesn't seem to have much advantage compared to Green, but he used this method to crush the defender."
Domestic fans are excited.
Green did not argue with the referee, but went to the baseline to serve to Curry.
Curry dribbles to the frontcourt.
The Lakers' lineup adjustment was very effective. They improved the height of the inside without reducing the strength of the perimeter defense.
Boban has always had miraculous effects against the Warriors, and the key lies in his height.
Boban only needs to lift the ball under the basket, which is a huge interference for those attacking the basket.
Barnes passed Covington, hit the basket, and encountered Jokic's help.
Barnes passed the ball to Bogut under the basket, and Bogut wanted to dunk! !
"Snapped!"
Boban's huge palm firmly covered Bogut's dunk ball and pressed it down directly.
The rebound was taken by Green. Green wanted to pass the ball to Curry, but Zhao Chen rushed over and intercepted it.
Zhao Chen's counterattack was very fierce. When he turned to the front, he also missed the opportunity to counterattack.
Zhao Chen gave the ball to Jokic.
Jokic did not encounter much intense defense and successfully carried the ball across the half court.
Zhao Chen continued to stay low, using the same tactics.
Green did not let Zhao Chen easily get stuck this time, but started fighting before Zhao Chen caught the ball.
The Warriors' tactics for defending Zhao Chen in the low post are very simple. Don't let Thompson guard him, and try not to flank him. They just let Green drain Zhao Chen. If he can't defend, he will tire Zhao Chen to death.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Zhao Chen does not hesitate to exert physical energy, and his current task is to score.
Green's defense is indeed top-notch, and he was not at an obvious disadvantage in the confrontation with Zhao Chen.
Cameras captured many of the confrontations.
Zhao Chen is on the right, about three meters away from the free throw line, and gets in position to get the ball!
Jokic directed his teammates to pull away and then hoisted the ball in.
The Lakers players cleared Zhao Chen's side, allowing Zhao Chen and Green to form singles opportunities.
The Warriors still didn't dare to double attack. As long as a double attack happened, the Lakers players could cut in from the center or the left at any time. Without Bogut protecting the frame, it would be difficult for them to defend the Lakers' inward cuts.
Of course, they also have confidence in Green's interior defensive ability.
Continue to challenge!
Zhao Chen leaned against Green with the ball behind his back, grabbed the ball with one hand and waved it, making Green nervous for a while.
Zhao Chen made a very comfortable movement, but Green had to lean over and hold Zhao Chen's waist with a serious look on his face.
"Kakakaka!!"
The media captured this scene, and many fans who were familiar with Jordan saw Jordan in Zhao Chen.
The man who treats basketball as a game.
Now Zhao Chen is like a basketball god who catches the ball with one hand.
"Guard him!"
"Don't let him be so arrogant!"
"Pretentious man!"
"Kill him!"
Warriors fans saw Zhao Chen teasing Green like this
After a series of tentative steps with his back turned, Zhao Chen chose to turn his back and eat Green alive.
Green's defense is indeed very strong, with good awareness, a strong body, and a low center of gravity. The average center can't beat Green in isolation, let alone a defender or forward.
Defense is Green's other job besides support.
If Scott hadn't run out of options, he wouldn't have arranged for Zhao Chen to use tactics like digging Green inside.
Such tactics cost Zhao Chen too much.
Zhao Chen's back-up push was accompanied by various feints, but Green did not take advantage of his feints.
"Bang!"
Zhao Chen didn't hesitate much. After hitting Green continuously, he quickly used the force to rebound and pushed his feet to the ground to turn over and lean back.
The offensive side is always more proactive than the defensive side. Although Green's defense is top-notch, he can't prevent Zhao Chen's move.
Dial the ball and take action, a picturesque scene!
It's like His Majesty the Flying Man has arrived in person!
"Uh-huh!"
