"Give that guy some more confrontation later, he won't last long." Zhao Chen made bigger moves when encouraging the team to defend Curry.
Zhao Chen faced off against Curry many times and clearly felt that Curry's condition was declining sharply.
"The second quarter will be a difficult period for the Warriors, and they need to get through this period," Barkley said.
Unconsciously, the Lakers have reversed their advantage in public opinion.
Now no one is sure that the Warriors can eliminate them.
The Lakers proved their difficulty with their strength.
Warriors attack.
Curry took the ball and pushed forward, and it was Dinwiddie who defended Curry.
Dinwiddie did not miss the opportunity to get on Curry's body. He rushed into Curry whenever he had the opportunity, even if it cost him a foul.
It became a little difficult for Curry to escape. Facing the Lakers' energetic rookie group, he fell into trouble as soon as he came up and couldn't get out of it.
Thompson was pestered by Zhao Chen.
Thompson wanted to move, but couldn't get rid of Zhao Chen.
Thompson went low to get stuck, but Zhao Chen didn't give him a chance. Thompson never had a chance to catch the ball.
Curry smashed the ball to Ezeli inside.
Randall defends Ezeli.
Maybe he can't deal with others, but Randall is very confident in dealing with Ezeli.
Ezeli couldn't hit Randall with his back and reluctantly gave the ball to Thompson.
The ball was thrilling, but it was almost intercepted by Zhao Chen.
After Thompson got the ball, he chose to play Zhao Chen.
This is not his type of attack.
Thompson's turn back was completely judged by Zhao Chen and the rhythm was correct.
Thompson's confrontation was not enough to knock Zhao Chen away.
"Snapped!"
As soon as Thompson's ball was released, Zhao Chen jumped up and stretched out his long arms to confiscate the ball.
Zhao Chen did not bat the ball, but directly grabbed the ball with his excellent bounce.
Zhao Chen's jump height is very high, much higher than Thompson's jump.
Even the fans at Oracle Center felt sad for Thompson.
"This ball is really cruel."
"Thompson couldn't move out of position, and he couldn't stay in position. He finally got a chance to catch the ball, but he was caught in the shot."
"Zhao Chen almost beat Thompson to tears."
"Thompson must be so bold, he dares to throw himself at Zhao Chen like this."
On the court, all the Warriors were trying their best to retreat. They knew how terrifying Zhao Chen's transition would be.
Zhao Chen did not push for a fast break, but gave the ball to Dinwiddie.
When Dinwiddie dribbles the ball forward, he relies on Curry to move forward.
Dinwiddie also made several changes of direction towards Curry. This kind of change of direction has no extraordinary effect, but it can consume Curry.
After playing for 10 seconds, Dinwiddie gave the ball to Zhao Chen.
Dinwiddie immediately took away Thompson, who released Zhao Chen, leaving Curry with Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen didn't give Curry any time to breathe, and he suddenly caught the ball.
Zhao Chen's burst was very fast and he passed Curry on the right side in seconds.
After passing Curry, Zhao Chen did not rush in, but quickly pulled back with his crotch.
Curry follows.
Zhao Chen then changed direction to the left at high speed to rush!
Curry will follow again, Zhao Chen will pass again, and come back again.
After Zhao Chen came back, he dribbled the ball with his crotch.
Curry felt pain in his ankle.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhao Chen passed Curry on the right, high position, and made an emergency stop in the middle distance!
The rhythm is perfect and the steps are smooth!
"Uh-huh!"
36 to 29.
Zhao Chen's scoring in this round is not the key, the key is to cause greater consumption to Curry.
Everyone in the Lakers is very clear about the current strategy. The Warriors' victory or defeat basically depends on Curry. If there is a problem with Curry, then the Lakers will have a high probability of winning the series!
With Zhao Chen's ability, he can beat Curry accurately every time.
Zhao Chen perfectly suppressed Curry in terms of body, speed and rhythm.
"I feel sorry for Curry, being tortured like this by Zhao Chen."
"Zhao Chen is awesome and wants to destroy Curry's defense."
"The Warriors really don't dare to double attack. The last game left a deep impression on them."
"The warriors are very strong, but there is nothing they can do. They met the epic-level Zhao Chen."
"Compared with Zhao Chen's outburst, I'm looking forward to Kobe Bryant more. I don't know if Kobe Bryant will explode tonight."
"You have really high demands on a 37-year-old veteran."
"Zhao Chen's offense and defense are both phenomenal."

This kind of offense and defense greatly improves the morale of the fans!

Curry is gritting his teeth and holding back the pain!
He knew he was being targeted by the Lakers.
There is no way to blame the opponent in this situation.
This is the playoffs. If Zhao Chen encounters such trouble, he will also deal with it.
The big screen kept replaying this scene, and Warriors fans kept booing Zhao Chen!
Dinwiddie continued to challenge Curry and was called for a foul by the referee.
Curry went to the top of the arc to organize the offense.
Thompson came up to cover Curry.
After the screen, Zhao Chen went directly to Curry, and Dinwiddie switched to guard Thompson!
Curry had no chance under Zhao Chen's defense.
Curry gave the ball to Ezeli, who took three steps to attack Randall.
He wants a dunk across Randall!
Randall was not knocked away and went up to meet Ezeli for a layup!
"Snapped!"
Randall refuses! !
Randall roared to the sky!
On the court, Randall's blocked ball was caught by Dinwiddie, who launched a quick counterattack.
Zhao Chen also rushed forward, but this time Dinwiddie did not give it to Zhao Chen, but gave the ball to Grant on the other side!
Grant stepped on the three-point line and took off. European step passed Livingston who turned back to defend, and succeeded in a dunk! !
38 to 29
Fans at Oracle Center discovered that the rookies who were still trembling in the first game have adapted to the intensity of the Western Conference Finals.
Both Dinwiddie and Randall are improving at a speed visible to the naked eye!
This potential, tsk tsk!
In the second quarter of the game, under the leadership of Zhao Chen, the rookies burst out with different strength, and they continued to open the score.
“The Lakers’ rookies are awesome too!!”
"Grant's talent is awesome."
"The Lakers' counterattack is fierce!"
"The Warriors are in trouble."
