Understanding the Warriors' intentions, Wang Zelin then tried to let his teammates attack on the offensive end, while he was responsible for the defense.
But the result was that his teammates beat him again and again.
For this, he didn't mean to blame his teammates too much.
After all, Lillard and Batum have not attempted a shot for too long, and the Warriors' strict defense against them has resulted in their average offensive efficiency.
Watching the time passing by, the Blazers have been unable to shorten the point difference. Even in these rounds, Wang Zelin reduced his shots and instead organized his teammates to attack, which made it impossible for the Blazers to maintain stable firepower output, which ultimately led to The point difference was widened step by step by the Warriors.
Enter the official timeout.
The scoreboard showed that the score between the two sides was 109:97, and the Trail Blazers were still 12 points behind the Warriors!
At this time, there was only nearly three minutes left.
On the big screen, Wang Zelin's personal data tonight was suddenly displayed, and it was astonishingly displayed: 42 points, 17 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 3 assists!
To be honest, when this data came out for the first time, everyone was shocked, including the Warriors players on the court and the Warriors fans around them.
But what followed was a roaring tsunami of cheers and long-lasting applause inside the Oracle Arena.
Because judging from the current reality, the Trail Blazers, who are trailing by double digits, want to chase 12 points in less than three minutes in the last three minutes. In front of today's hot Warriors team, it is almost impossible to accomplish it. thing.
Even if Wang Zelin is very likely to score 50 points in a single game tonight, so what?
Just the thought that Wang Zelin's two consecutive crazy performances will be reduced to nothing, the Warriors feel extremely excited.
Especially the Warriors players who were not optimistic before the series started. They have already foreseen in their hearts the wonderful scene that after this series is over, everyone will be slapped in the face by the Warriors.
Not only the Western Conference Finals, but also this year's championship, the Warriors are determined to win!
Trail Blazers bench.
After returning, Wang Zelin sat silently in his seat, panting heavily. He wanted to seize every second of rest.
Because he really wants to win this game!
He will never give up until the last moment.
Suddenly, Coach Terry came over, looked at Wang Zelin with distressed eyes, and couldn't help but suggest: "Wang, if it doesn't work, let's give up this game strategically, grab 4 in the next game and win it back!" "
There was silence on the bench.
"King? Coach?"
At this time, everyone's eyes were turned to Wang Zelin.
Seeing that Wang Zelin didn't reply, Coach Terry continued to persuade: "The responsibility for tonight is mine. Not only did I underestimate the Warriors, but I also underestimated their head coach Steve Kerr and failed to see through his plan at the first time! So, Wang, you really don’t have to blame yourself too much, you’ve done your best!”
"Did you try your best?"
Wang Zelin finally raised his head.
Just when Coach Terry thought Wang Zelin agreed to the suggestion, he looked down and found that the latter's eyes were bloodshot and full of violence and unwillingness.
At this moment, he knew that the man in front of him would not listen to his advice.
Sure enough, soon, Wang Zelin's voice sounded again.
"Try your best!? No, I don't understand! I only know one thing, and that is to fight according to my inner voice! So I can't give up this game!"
"..." Coach Terry fell silent.
After a while, he gently patted Wang Zelin on the shoulder: "Then go fight! Go and enjoy every moment next! But you have to promise me not to get hurt!"
"Um!"
After a heavy nod, the referee blew the whistle.
This game has entered a countdown.
"I knew it."
When Cole saw that the Trail Blazers were still playing with all their main players, he had a real expression on his face.
Then with a wave of his hand, the Warriors also sent out their full lineup.
Since you want to fight, then go and fight to your heart’s content!
The Warriors are also ready to fight until the last moment.
The main players of both sides appeared and the game continued.
Blazers' possession of the ball.
Wang Zelin caught the ball in the low post, leaned in, turned around and shot with a sky hook. Bogt had no choice but to look up and watch the basketball fly through his fingers, and finally hit the basket.
"Uh-huh!"
The 44th point of this game is obtained.
However, the Trail Blazers were still 10 points behind the Warriors at this time, and Wang Zelin was no longer in the mood to talk trash, so he turned around and retreated quickly.
Warriors attack.
Green caught the ball at the top of the arc. After the pick-and-roll, he didn't pass it to Curry. Instead, he held the ball and rushed in, straight into the basket!
At this moment, there was only one thing left in his mind - dunk! ! !
Yes, he wants to seize the last moment to humiliate the Trail Blazers No. 36. He wants to show off the glory of the winner in front of that annoying boy!
"Green's cut! Is he planning to dunk one on the king's head?" Yu Jia said in surprise.
"Alas, the current situation is not good for the Trail Blazers, and the hope of a comeback is extremely slim. If Green dunks this ball, then the Blazers will basically have no chance of a comeback!"
Next to Zhang Lili, his words were full of negative connotations, and he was obviously not optimistic that the Blazers could make a comeback.
"squeak!"
With his feet exerting force, Green kept accelerating forward, as if even gods and Buddhas had to give way.
On the opposite side, Wang Zelin, who had already blocked Green's breakthrough line, took a step forward and blocked Green directly. The latter had no time to react, and the two collided instantly.
Green used huge kinetic energy to knock Wang Zelin back half a step, but he himself was pushed back half a step by Wang Zelin and failed to break through.
The whistle didn't sound and the game continued.
Wang Zelin stepped back with his right foot and immediately stabilized.
At this time, he saw that Green's control of the ball was obviously unstable, and then fell to the floor next to Green. He immediately took the first step from the front, stepped forward with his left foot in front of him, leaned over and stretched his arm, grabbed it with his left hand, and The ball caught his hand and swept past Green.
"Steal! Green's hard breakthrough was blocked by the King. The Blazers counterattacked. They still have a chance..."
Yu Jia roared loudly immediately.
The Trail Blazers made a quick layoff, and Wang Zelin finally assisted Batum to finish at the basket and scored two points.
At 101:109, the point difference between the two teams finally returned to single digits.
At this moment, Warriors coach Cole hurriedly called a timeout.
As soon as the players came out, Cole immediately expressed his dissatisfaction with Green's reckless offensive choices, repeatedly emphasizing that the team's primary goal at this time is stability, not waves.
Faced with the coach's scolding, the enthusiastic Green quickly calmed down and quickly signaled that he would not play it safe and would no longer be angry with Wang Zelin.
Seeing that Green corrected his mistakes and had a correct attitude, Ke Er didn't say anything more. Finally, he encouraged his disciples with a few words, and the main force returned to the field with one stroke.
Warriors attack.
In singles at the top of the arc, after several dribbles, Curry broke through Lillard, near the free throw line, and made a sudden stop to help the Warriors continue their firepower.
But the crazy Wang Zelin was still unstoppable and continued his scoring show.
One-on-one under the basket, Wang Zelin once again easily crushed Bogt, and this time the goal was even more exciting, a two-handed dunk.
Wang Zelin, who scored the 46th point of the game, looked extremely dissatisfied. Because Bogt suddenly leaned forward when defending this ball, which was a suspicious tiptoe action. Fortunately, before Wang Zelin entered the NBA, he had accepted Rick Mahorn, Charles Oakley, and Bowen Bowen. The training of these three veterans allowed him to accurately predict when he landed and successfully protect himself.
With this ball, it was obvious that Bogt had been beaten by himself, so he had to resort to an off-the-disc move.
But the referee didn't call the penalty for a long time, as if he didn't see it.
"Fuck the mud horse!"
The game was not over yet. Even though the anger in Wang Zelin's heart was overwhelming, he had to endure it for now. If he took action at this time, he would most likely be expelled by the referee.
Offense and defense transition.
In the next round, the Warriors patiently organized the attack and tried to take action in the last few seconds. After all, they were leading by 8 points and there was not much time left. They wished the timer would run faster.
In the last 5 seconds, the ball reached Iguodala's hands, and Iguodala caught the ball from the baseline. At this time, he did not hesitate and decisively chose to take action.
"Snapped!"
However, as soon as the ball was released, a figure flew across the sky and slapped his shot out of bounds.
Iguodala looked up and saw that the person coming was Wang Zelin!
"This guy...is simply not human!"
In this regard, Iguodala was shocked, but more helpless.
Fortunately, the ball still belongs to the Warriors.
The ball was served from the sideline. Under the strong resistance of the Trail Blazers, the ball almost violated the five-second rule and was passed to Green at the last moment.
Green was obviously stunned for a moment after catching the ball, and then quickly took a shot, looking longingly at the basket.
Unfortunately, his shooting movements were obviously out of sync, and the ball eventually missed the basket.
Under the basket, Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound and immediately wanted to pass a long pass, but the Warriors retreated very quickly and he didn't find any chance.
Fall into positional warfare.
Wang Zelin lifted the ball from the free throw line to near the three-point line and set up a pick-and-roll for Lillard. Lillard took advantage of the screen and decisively made a three-pointer.
Because both of them know very well that three-pointers are the best weapon to chase points at this time.
However……
"Clang!"
Lillard hit a three-pointer.
"well!"
Fans as far away as Portland and Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean sighed again after seeing the ball missed.
There is not much time left for the Trail Blazers. If they fail to seize this opportunity, the game will be lost!
"boom!"
But the next moment, the surprise was like a bolt from the blue, shattering their inner depression and frustration.
Under the basket, I saw a figure rushing over Green and Bogut, taking the lead in touching the backboard, and then completed a shocking putback dunk.
105:111!
Everyone looked at the sound and saw who else was the player hanging on the basket if it wasn't Wang Zelin!
"48 points! In this year's playoffs, Zelin will get his first 50+ points in a single game!"
"Not only that, the Trail Blazers also brought the score back to 6 points. It seems that a comeback is no longer a dream!"
The moment Wang Zelin completed the extra dunk, the timer stopped at 58 seconds, which meant that there was less than one minute left before the end of the game.
At this time, the Trail Blazers regained the point difference to 6 points, which once again made the trend of this game suspenseful.
Should the Warriors take a timeout?
At this time, Cole had already stood up. At this moment, he felt that the area under his butt was extremely hot.
But then, Curry turned around and made an unnecessary gesture, stopping Cole who wanted to call a timeout.
"Drummond, serve!"
In the backcourt, Curry shouted to Green.
Seeing Curry staring at him coldly, with the familiar baby face full of murderous intent, Green couldn't help but shudder, and he didn't dare to make any more moves, and quickly sent the ball out.
After receiving the ball, everyone's eyes were suddenly focused on No. 30 of the Warriors.
They all want to see how the Warriors' star will handle the next attack!
You know, under the leadership of Wang Zelin, the Trail Blazers have launched one offensive after another, and now they have great hope of making a comeback.
Now, it's the baby-faced guy's turn to respond.
The critical moment is the superstar moment!
Stephen Curry, can he do it?
Whether in person or in front of the TV, everyone is waiting to see.
"Snapped!"
Curry advances very slowly after receiving the ball.
When Green retreated to near the three-point line, Curry had just passed halftime and reached the logo area.
"Curry's offense, how will he choose this shot? Oh, wait, why did he stop..."
Halfway through Yu Jia's explanation, he looked a little baffled when Curry, who was still a few steps away from the three-pointer, suddenly stopped.
At this time, under the basket, Wang Zelin suddenly felt something in his heart, his expression was extremely serious, and at the same time, his eyes were fixed on Curry on the court.
"Could it be...fuck!"
The next moment, Wang Zelin blurted out a national curse.
Curry, who was not far from the free throw line, smiled faintly, raised his hand and hit a super long three-pointer!
Moreover, his shot was still so fast, catching Lillard, who was standing on the three-point line not far away, completely off guard.
No, even if Lillard reacted immediately to this situation, the three-step distance between the two meant that he would not be able to provide even a little bit of effective defensive interference on the defensive end.
"What an international joke!"
"This? This! Oh, let me go! Why did Curry just vote?"
"Oh, my god!"
"Damn it, Fuck! Can a goal like this be scored?"
Fans from both countries were shocked when they saw Curry suddenly making a long shot from beyond the three-point line!
"Uh-huh!"
The basketball hits the net!
"Oh, I'm going! I'm in! I'm actually in!"
"Fuck!!!"
Yu Jia and Zhang Lili were dumbfounded and blurted out the C language at the same time.
"What the hell?"
"What's wrong?"
"What happened to the kidney?"
The Trail Blazers players were all confused.
So, you voted?
Then, in!
Aldridge now has a standard black face with a question mark, and he can't find the calm look he used to have.
"Farke! He actually made the shot!"
Lillard swore directly and was actually a little excited.
At the same time, something strange flashed through my heart, as if a mysterious window in my heart had been pried open.
At this time, the Oracle Arena became quiet. Because they did not expect this, even the broadcast cameras were a little behind.
At this time, Curry, after hitting a super long shot, turned around and rushed back to his own half. While roaring madly at the fans around him, he pulled off his jersey and showed off his beautiful belly!
"hiss!"
Until then, all the Warriors' home fans took a breath of cold air, but...
"mvp! mvp! mvp..."
Waves of cheers and shouts from the MVP seemed to lift the entire ceiling.
"Good! Good shot!"
On the sidelines, Cole was ready to curse when Curry shot a three-pointer, but with the "swish" sound, he forcibly changed his mouth shape.
After some extreme operations, my mouth almost swayed!
Amidst the excitement, the Trail Blazers continued to attack.
However, Lillard, who was affected by the super long shot just now, was a little distracted and was almost intercepted by Curry.
"Damien, give me the ball!"
Seeing this scene, the dissatisfied Wang Zelin yelled at Lillard, who also quickly passed the ball through.
"Double team! Don't let him score 50 points!"
The moment he took over, Cole next to him suddenly shouted, causing the Warriors' defensive strategy on the field to undergo new changes.
After Green and Barnes reacted, they immediately dropped their defenders and pounced on Wang Zelin.
If it weren't for the head coach's reminder, they almost forgot that Wang Zelin was still two points away from scoring 50 points.
If he really scores 50+ points on the Warriors, any Warriors player with a little temper will feel extremely humiliated...even if they win in the end!
Therefore, this goal must not be allowed to be scored by the guy on the opposite side.
Facing a three-person double team, Wang Zelin had no intention of passing the ball at this moment, because he knew that his teammates' confidence had been completely destroyed.
Now, the only one he can rely on is himself!
"Bang!"
After exerting force with his back and pushing away Bogt, Wang Zelin did not choose to break through the inside line. Instead, he turned sideways, grabbed the ball with his right hand, raised it from bottom to top, and made a signature sky hook!
"Don't even think about it!"×2
Green and Barnes on both sides immediately jumped up and tried their best to block the shot. Even if they couldn't block it, they still had to provide maximum defensive interference.
"Snapped!"
Green gritted his teeth, his heart pounded, and he slapped Wang Zelin's right forearm hard.
Beep~
The referee could no longer pretend to turn a blind eye to this slap and immediately blew the whistle.
But the ball in Wang Zelin's hand came out smoothly.
Can I get in?
Everyone is staring at the ball spinning in the sky...
"Uh-huh!"
The ball was scored and there was an extra penalty!
This was a 2+1. Wang Zelin scored 50 points on the spot, and there was still a chance to go further.
"this?"
"well!"
The mood of the surrounding fans changed from surprise to helplessness very quickly. Unexpectedly, at the last moment, they still failed to prevent Wang Zelin's attack.
Immediately afterwards, as Wang Zelin made a free throw, the score was 2+1, and his personal scoring record reached 51 points!
However, the game time is running out.
...
In the end, due to the large point difference in front, the Trail Blazers still failed to find a chance to come back and lost to the Warriors by 6 points, 117:111!
