.....................
Curry's three-pointer kicked off the Warriors' pursuit of points.
Zhao Chen adhered to the strategy of combining personal offense with the team's offense in the first half and sent out assists one after another.
The entire Lakers team scored. When the team's scoring did not continue, Zhao Chen scored by himself to continue the team's offense.
Even though the Warriors made successive offensive counterattacks in the third quarter, the Lakers still withstood the offensive.
After three quarters, the score was fixed at 104-98.
The Warriors scored 40 points in this quarter, but still failed to take the lead.
Zhao Chen showed his dominance in this section.
No matter how much the Splash Brothers writhed, Zhao Chen suppressed them firmly.
Rest between sessions.
Zhao Chen was still sitting on the bench panting. Although he was now leading the Warriors, Zhao Chen did not dare to be careless at all.
The Warriors are playing hell with the Lakers.
It took a lot of energy for Zhao Chen to play through three quarters, and now he is struggling with the Warriors!
Let’s see who can’t hold on first.
The Warriors' tenacity at home is terrifying. Only by outlasting them can they finally win this game.
The Lakers were in big trouble. Scott didn't dare to replace Zhao Chen. Scott was afraid that as soon as Zhao Chen came off the court, the Warriors would overtake the score and the Lakers would come back.
In order to help Zhao Chen reduce his burden, Scott constantly sent defensive players to protect Zhao Chen from running away.
The game started quickly in the final quarter. Zhao Chen was still on the court, but he was not the main attacker. The main attackers became Rose and Kobe.
Rose and Kobe were in good shape, barely able to withstand Thompson's outburst in the early stages of the final quarter.
Kobe was very stable in the low post and mid-range today, hitting layups and fadeaway jumpers in succession.
Kobe is now using his experience and skills to play more. In terms of physical talent, he has fallen behind a bit.
At 9 minutes and 11 seconds, Iguodala made a three-pointer.
At 8 minutes and 57 seconds, Green stole Booker and assisted Thompson to complete the conversion and score two plus one. The foul was caused by Arab League.
With Thompson's extra free throw, the Warriors also used a defensive counterattack to tie the score.
110 to 110
The Lakers requested a timeout.
After the timeout, Zhao Chen took over the ball.
Thompson continued to keep a close eye on Zhao Chen.
"Zhao, we will definitely win tonight. Let's go back to Los Angeles to play the tiebreaker!" Thompson provoked Zhao Chen.
"You're just dreaming." Zhao Chen responded to Thompson.
As soon as Zhao Chen finished speaking, he leaned over and sprinted to the right to pass Thompson.
Jokic timely helped Zhao Chen block the pursuing Iguodala, and Zhao Chen successfully entered the route.
When Green was hesitating whether to pounce forward, Zhao Chen threw one while walking!
"Uh-huh!"
112 to 110.
Zhao Chen used a floater in this round to once again help the Lakers regain the lead.
Warriors attack.
There was a small mismatch between Barnes and Zhao Chen. Barnes wanted to break out of Zhao Chen, but failed.
Zhao Chen's lateral movement was very fast, directly blocking his path.
Barnes steps back and makes a jump shot.
Zhao Chen’s strong interference.
"frame!"
Barnes' shot bounced high on the rim, and Zhao Chen turned back to collect it.
"Don't shoot like that, give it to the outside." Cole yelled from the sidelines.
Barnes' handling of the ball looked immature.
Barnes nodded. Barnes was in a contract year and he really wanted to perform at critical moments, but he chose the wrong target for his singles.
Lakers offense.
Zhao Chen dribbled the ball forward.
Ah Lian came up to cover Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen did not pass the ball out, but kept circling around Ah Lian.
Ah Lian didn't even dare to move, and whenever he did he moved to cover.
In the high-speed move away, Zhao Chen used a double step back to widen the distance from Iguodala and Thompson, and quickly made a three-point jumper.
Seeing such a space-opening step-back technique, the fans at the Oracle Center took a breath.
It was really easy for Zhao Chen to attack.
"Uh-huh!"
The scene fell silent instantly.
115 to 110,
Another 5 points.
A lot of the cooperation between Zhao Chen and Ah Lian this season has been this kind of three-point play around screens.
As long as the Warriors' defense is even slightly lax, Zhao Chen can strike.
The score between the two sides continued to widen.
Thompson and Curry didn't look very good. They didn't expect Zhao Chen to fight back so quickly.
Zhao Chen's scoring didn't have many precursors, and they didn't have many defensive methods.
Although Yi Jianlian's cover played a certain role, Zhao Chen's personal ability was the key to completing this attack.
Warriors fans don't dare to breathe when they see Zhao Chen. It seems that as long as Zhao Chen takes a shot, it will hit.
After Zhao Chen hit the ball, he still shook his shoulders in celebration at Curry. This was a provocation to Curry.
"Stephen, attack, attack!" Cole shouted anxiously from the sidelines.
On the court, Curry dribbled to the frontcourt and began to dribble to look for scoring opportunities.
Curry also has many ways to score, and his attack range is also all over the half-court area.
It was Rose who defended Curry, and Curry used a series of tricks to throw Rose away.
A high-post emergency stop and a mid-range push shot.
Compared with Zhao Chen's shooting speed, Curry's shooting speed seems to be about the same speed.
"Uh-huh!"
An arrow to the heart!
115 to 112.
Zhao Chen didn't hesitate and went directly to the baseline to serve to Jokic, and then ran forward at high speed.
Jokic and Zhao Chen have a tacit understanding. They give Zhao Chen an advance on his straight forward route and let Zhao Chen chase the basketball.
Zhao Chen caught the ball at the midfield line. The Warriors' two insiders did not come back. Only Curry, Thompson, and Barnes returned to defense.
On the Lakers side, Zhao Chen and Rose are in transition.
Zhao Chen charged at high speed, and Thompson came over to delay Zhao Chen.
When everyone thought that this fast break opportunity did not exist, Zhao Chen sent the ball to Thompson's crotch, and he passed the ball and got rid of Thompson.
Rose held Barnes on the other side, and Zhao Chen hit Curry at high speed.
Zhao Chen rushed into the three-point line and directly took three steps to connect the ball, raising it high and hitting it high. Curry's height was too short for Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen grabbed the ball with one hand, raised it high, and ignored Curry who was blocking the ball in front of him. He just swung his arm and made a slam!
117 to 112.
It only took Zhao Chen more than three seconds to break through the splash defense.
The Warriors' offense also came quickly.
Barnes returned to the baseline and passed the ball to Curry.
Curry also wanted to quickly counterattack with a long three-pointer, but failed.
However, the offensive rebound was obtained by Green, who did not return, and Green scored the ball with a flying layup.
117 to 114.
The two sides have been engaged in a tug-of-war over a gap of 3 to 6 points.
The Lakers have always had the advantage.
In the last 22 seconds, Zhao Chen passed three people in a row and then scored two points, opening the difference between the two teams to 6 points.
At this time, Stephen Kerr called a halt to the game in despair.
136 to 130.
The warrior has reached a desperate situation!
The eyes of the fans at Oracle Center are full of bitterness!
