"Poor Andrew!"
"Although he is taller than Zhao Chen, he looks like a little chicken in front of Zhao Chen."
"Maybe Zhao Chen kicked his dignity away as a man."
Buckley shouted excitedly.
The ball was constantly replayed on the big screen at Staples Arena.
Zhao Chen's dunk made the fans continue to cheer.
This ball is very explosive, very Zhao Chen.
On the court, Zhao Chen glared at Bogut and then retreated.
Bogut looks tough, but is afraid of the real strong ones.
Only when facing the weak will he show his arrogant side.
Facing the current Zhao Chen, Bogut could only shrink back.
The Warriors attack again.
Curry gave the ball to Green, and then started running.
Kobe can't keep up with Curry's movement.
Curry's movement is not just running blindly by himself, but combined with the cover of teammates and even opponents.
Any moving individual on the court becomes Curry's tool.
Curry ran from the left to the right corner and received Green's pass.
Green's distribution was timely, and Curry completed his preparations before receiving the ball.
Catching the ball, adjusting, pushing and shooting, the whole action is as smooth as clouds and water.
"Uh-huh!"
13 to 14.
After scoring the goal, Curry nodded continuously at Zhao Chen.
This is Curry's response to Zhao Chen.
Not long after the game started, Curry hit consecutive three-pointers. Curry's hot state this season is evident.
Zhao Chen doesn't care about Curry's provocation. No matter how strong Curry is, he will defeat him with his own hands.
The Lakers offense comes again.
After Jokic brought the ball across the half court, he signaled to open up the space to Zhao Chen.
The Lakers players dispersed, and Zhao Chen received a pass from Jokic from outside the right three-point line.
It's still Barnes' defense.
Facing Barnes, Zhao Chen changed direction and then rushed to the right.
Barnes was not completely thrown away by Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen occupied a favorable position and rushed forward against Barnes.
Jokic made the move, and neither Green nor Bogut chose to defend.
Zhao Chen paused to use his strength to fight against Barnes and then threw the ball.
Send the ball into the basket with a soft touch.
13 to 16.
He can do brutal actions such as dunking, but he can also perform delicate actions such as throwing.
Zhao Chen seemed very relaxed in switching his offensive methods.
The Staples Arena cheered again, and the fans liked Zhao Chen who was attacking like this.
At this time, seeing the people standing next to the technical stage, the fans' cheers continued to increase.
Derrick Rose!
Scott was "whispering" to Rose next to the technical table.
Obviously, whenever there is a dead ball opportunity, Rose will appear.
The situation on the field was changing rapidly, and no players were paying attention to the sidelines.
Warriors attack.
Curry gave the ball to Green, still running wildly.
But this time the Lakers' unlimited defense kept up.
Kobe, Covington, and Tucker are all taking turns chasing Curry.
Curry wasn't given a chance.
Thompson started. He used Bogut's screen to get rid of Zhao Chen and received Green's pass at a 45-degree position on the right.
Zhao Chen bypassed Bogut's screen and met Green's screen. Jokic was slower to defend Thompson.
Thompson caught the ball and immediately completed the shot.
A textbook demonstration of a shooter's running shooting skills!
The basketball draws a beautiful arc!
"Uh-huh!"
16 to 16.
After scoring, Thompson continued to nod provocatively at Zhao Chen.
Thompson was also holding back a lot of anger in his heart.
He was unwilling to lose in the Western Conference Finals last season.
The Lakers' offense is hot, but the Warriors' offense is not bad either.
Facing the Warriors, who are all top shooters on the perimeter, the Lakers' perimeter defense also encountered a severe test.
Only more than 4 minutes had passed between the two sides, and the score was already very high.
In the next three rounds, both sides increased their defensive intensity, both sides fought hard, and the score remained unchanged.
The game reached a deadlock, and Lakers head coach Scott requested a timeout.
"Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry are the most accurate perimeter combination in the league. They have allowed the entire league to see waves of three-pointers this season." Barkley shouted.
"Neither of them has outstanding physical talents, but they both have top-notch shooting skills. They are even better than last season." Smith said.
Zhao Chen constantly encouraged his teammates on the sidelines, indicating that they should not give up easily in pursuit of the Splash Brothers.
There must be no slack in defending Curry and Thompson.
"Derek, come on, Kobe, you take a rest first." Scott replaced Rose.
Kobe's age is there, and his speed is slower, giving the Warriors many opportunities from the outside.
Rose was the adjustment Scott made.
Kobe high-fived Rose, then nodded and sat back on the bench.
In playing against top teams, Kobe felt the power of time.
After all, he is no longer young.
This alliance belongs to them!
"Derek, you will chase Stephen later. If you have cover, try to get around him. Don't give him any chance to make a move." Zhao Chen emphasized to Rose.
"OK, I understand." Ross nodded.
Faced with such a strong opponent in the Lakers' debut, Rose also had some pressure.
But despite the pressure, Rose is also eager to give it a try.
The Warriors side.
Cole encouraged the team.
Generally speaking, a timeout is called at about 8 minutes, but it is not called until nearly halfway through the game. This is also a secret battle between Cole and Scott.
Scott took the initiative to request a timeout, and Cole believed that he had won the first round of the contest.
After returning from the timeout, the Lakers replaced two people.
Rose replaced Kobe, and UAE replaced Tucker.
The Warriors also replaced Bogut with Iguodala, and they were in the deadliest five.
The Lakers' offensive possession.
Rose caught the ball and dribbled across half court.
With Rose's appearance, the momentum of the scene reached its highest level.
"Derek, kill them."
"Well done!"
"Tu tu tu tu!!"
Rose also has high popularity in Los Angeles. Fans like the former youngest MVP and have high expectations for Rose.
In this lineup, Zhao Chen gave Rose the ball control and moved into the split position.
Rose did not dominate the first half and handed the ball to Zhao Chen.
After Rose came to Los Angeles, he had many communications with Zhao Chen, Kobe Bryant, and Scott, and clarified his on-court tasks.
I know that Zhao Chen will always be the Lakers' first choice.
If it were anyone else, Rose would find a way to compete, but Zhao Chen is a terrifying guy who broke his youngest MVP record, and Rose doesn't have much intention to compete.
Zhao Chen holds the ball on the right side, and Barnes and Iguodala prepare to surround Zhao Chen.
Ah Lian came up to cover in time, and Zhao Chen used Ah Lian's body to break through.
Zhao Chen did not continue the attack after pulling to the right, but gave the ball to Ross on the left.
Rose caught the ball and the Lakers players all pulled away.
Zhao Chen signaled Rose to challenge Curry.
Let Rose play better in the first round to give the newcomer some face.
