After Reed caught the ball, he turned around and faced Morrow in a single, making a triple threat action and taking a tentative step.
Morrow kept Sun Yi's instructions in mind, guarding against breakthroughs but not shots, and remained unmoved by Reed's probing steps.
Seeing this situation, Reed did not take the next step immediately.
He knew that his speed and explosive power had dropped significantly after recovering from a serious injury. He could not easily break through and could only make a fuss about his skills.
So Reed took a step forward in a sheeplike disguise. When he saw Morrow retreating, he suddenly pulled the ball back, adjusted his luck, and then made a step-back jumper.
He originally thought he had shaken Moreau away, but he didn't expect that the moment he took the shot, he found that the rookie suddenly pounced on him, seriously interfering with the shooting rhythm.
"My Healing Game"
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
Randolph grabbed the backcourt rebound and immediately found Curry and passed it.
After receiving the ball, Curry quickly dribbled forward and passed the ball just after half-court.
Morrow, who was on a fast break, received the pass, came to the right side of the three-point line, and hit a three-pointer.
30:27!
The Warriors overtook the score again!
The ball transitions and the Bucks attack.
Reed came to the high post area on the right and leaned on Morrow to reach for the ball again.
He felt that the previous attack and defense was very embarrassing.
Even if he didn't score, he let the opposing rookie score a three-pointer. This made him unbearable and he would definitely return one.
Seeing this, Reinold passed the ball again.
After receiving the ball, Reed made a triple-threat move and took a tentative step. Seeing that Morrow was indifferent, he pulled it up and threw the basketball in his hand.
But he ignored that his jumping ability had declined after the serious injury and he was unable to jump to the original height.
Morrow reacted quickly and rushed to interfere.
short!
The basketball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.
The Warriors protected the backcourt rebound and immediately launched a defensive counterattack.
The Bucks' defense was knocked to pieces by the Warriors and failed to prevent this fast break.
Reggie Williams hit the basket on a fast break and scored.
Immediately afterwards, Reid asked for the ball again, and against Morrow's defense, he hit a difficult fadeaway jumper and regained some face.
After the ball hit, Reid was very motivated and felt that he could do it.
But in the next three rounds, he was hit hard and his mentality collapsed.
The Warriors took the opportunity to hit two fast breaks and widened the point difference to 7 points.
On the Bucks bench, head coach Skiles immediately requested a timeout and called the players back for adjustments.
"Michael, you take a rest and then play." Skiles said.
After hearing this, Reed was stunned and realized that he might have been abandoned.
If the star player does not play well for a period of time, the head coach will give him a chance to find his form. This kind of operation of directly placing the star player on the bench can reveal some problems.
Reid is very familiar with this kind of thing. After all, he became the leader of the Bucks by squeezing out Ray Allen.
"Am I going to be abandoned?"
After thinking about it, Reid smiled bitterly, nodded, then sat on the bench and put a towel on his head. He needed to calm down.
Bucks coach Skiles saw this and didn't say much. He called other players together to arrange offensive and defensive tactics.
Not long after, the timeout ended and the game continued.
The Bucks replaced Reid and Warrick and replaced Jennings and Bogut.
The Warriors replaced Tolliver and replaced him with Sun Yi.
After substitution adjustments, the Bucks attacked.
Jennings dribbled forward, came to the top of the arc to organize the offense, waved to the inside, and called for pick-and-roll cooperation.
Bogut ran out of the penalty area.
Randolph followed closely, but saw Sun Yi motioning for him to stay. Without thinking much, he moved to the outside, ready to defend Yin Lyasova at any time.
At the same time, Sun Yi quickly ran to the top of the key, limiting the Bucks' pick-and-roll cooperation.
Jennings, who was holding the ball at the top of the key, saw Sun Yi following him and felt a little confused, wondering what the Warriors' defensive strategy was.
After seeing Bogut set up a pick-and-roll, Jennings didn't think much and quickly broke through the screen.
Sun Yi immediately changed defense and got stuck between Jennings and Bogut.
"Sun's position is a bit bold. He wants to restrict Brandon and Andrew at the same time. I think he will pay the price for his arrogance." The Bucks' on-site commentator commented.
On the court, Jennings noticed Sun Yi's position and felt that this guy was too naive.
"I want to see how you defend yourself?!"
Zhan Ningsi thinks this is a good opportunity to make Sun Yi look embarrassed.
So, Jennings immediately stopped, took off and shot in one go.
The moment he took the shot, he saw a big hand suddenly appearing in front of him. He was startled, causing his shooting posture to become somewhat deformed.
"Damn it! How did this guy come so fast!"
After landing, Zhan Nings looked around but could not find any sign of Sun Yi. He wondered if he had been dazzled before.
"Brandon, get back on defense, that guy is gone!"
Hearing the call from his teammates, Jennings immediately turned around and saw the Warriors' No. 9 player getting further and further away from him before he realized what had happened.
On the other side, Sun Yi received a long pass from his teammate, took a big step, and easily hit a layup to complete the fast break.
The ball transitions and the Bucks attack.
Jennings was unwilling to give in and played pick-and-roll again.
This time he didn't mess around, waiting for Bogut to rush inside before passing the ball, wanting to see how that hateful guy defended.
On the other side, Sun Yi and Curry had a tacit understanding and ran towards their defenders respectively.
Jennings' delay caused Curry to rush back and block him.
"Damn it!"
The pick-and-roll failed. Jennings cursed secretly and then passed the ball to Bogut.
In his opinion, Bogut's matchup with Sun Yi was simply crushing.
Bogut, who rushed into the penalty area, received the pass and tried to squeeze Sun Yi away, but found that the effect was average.
After he had just squeezed Sun Yi away, before he could make the next move, the rookie got close to him again.
After trying twice, Bogut had no choice but to shoot against Sun Yi's defense, otherwise he would be given a three-second penalty.
With the bonus of [Restricted Area Deterrence], Sun Yi successfully defended against this attack.
The commentator on the scene was a little embarrassed. He was slapped in the face by Sun Yi at the speed of light.
The rumors are indeed true, this guy Sun Yi is an out-and-out face-slapping maniac!
At the basket, Randolph grabbed the rebound, looked at Sun Yi with stars in his eyes, and then passed the ball over.
He naturally knew how difficult it was to guard against a big guy like Bogut, but now he was guarded by Sun Yi with his small skills and big skills. He seemed to regard Sun Yi as his idol in his heart.
On the other side, Sun Yi naturally didn't know that he had a fanboy, and he was dribbling the ball quickly.
The Bucks retreated very quickly. Except for Bogut, all other players returned to their defensive areas.
On the Warriors' side, Randolph didn't catch up, and the two sides were evenly matched.
Seeing this, Sun Yi passed the message directly without waiting for Bogut to come back.
After two passes, Morrow threw the ball outside the three-point line.
The Bucks defended very promptly and interfered with Morrow's shooting.
"when!"
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
Under the basket, Salmons occupied the best position and was about to take off to grab the rebound. However, he found that the light around him suddenly dimmed, and he secretly thought something was wrong. He might have to make a backdrop.
Just as Salmons thought, Sun Yi, who rushed to the basket, activated the bond badge [Push Master], instantly rose into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked the ball into the basket through Salmons.
The audience burst into thunderous applause, cheers and shouts resounded throughout the arena, and the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak.
Both Warriors fans and Bucks fans were conquered by this explosive dunk.
On the court, after Sun Yi made a make-up dunk, he used the basket to stabilize his body, landed firmly on the floor, and then turned around and returned to defense.
He was afraid that if he made unnecessary moves, the referee would call him a technical foul again.
At the same time, Jennings rushed to the basket and picked up the basketball on the floor. Hearing the cheers of the fans in the audience, he felt extremely aggrieved.
He felt that it was a shame to let his opponent ignite the audience with a powerful dunk on his own territory!
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
Listening to the harsh cheers, Jennings became angry and smashed the basketball in his hand.
The basketball hit the basket and rebounded, hitting the back of Randolph who was turning back to defend.
Randolph was furious, turned his head and glared at Jennings and shouted: "Little man, do you want to fight?"
Seeing that something was wrong, the referee immediately ran forward and whistled Jennings for a technical foul.
At the same time, Sun Yi ran over, grabbed the angry Randolph, and comforted him a few words to calm down his anger.
When the referee saw that the conflict had subsided, he breathed a sigh of relief and blew his whistle to indicate that the game should continue.
Curry stood on the free throw line, took the basketball from the referee, and made the free throw.
The Warriors continued to serve baseline balls. After receiving the ball, Sun Yi quickly dribbled forward and came to organize the offense outside the three-point line.
Curry quickly ran up and circled without catching the ball, and then ran toward the bottom corner.
Seeing that Curry had attracted the defensive attention, Sun Yi immediately started and broke through into the penalty area.
Yin Lyasova reacted half a beat too slowly and failed to keep up with Sun Yi, so he could only turn around and pursue the defense.
Sun Yi broke into the penalty area to attract Bogut's defense and passed the ball from the guy's crotch to the basket.
Randolph, who rushed to the basket, received the pass, plucked green onions from dry land, and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.
The Warriors launched a 7-0 offensive wave, widening the point difference to 14 points!
Seeing this situation, Bucks head coach Skiles asked for a timeout again and asked the players to return to the bench to adjust.
"Keep calm. Although we are behind by double digits now, the game is not over yet. We still have a chance to catch up."
Skiles first calmed the players' emotions, and then continued to arrange offensive and defensive tactics.
“On the offensive end, we need to play to our strengths and don’t just play in isolation.
On the defensive end, give up rushing for rebounds, retreat quickly, and don't give the Warriors a chance to counterattack. Do you understand? "
"Understood!" the Bucks players responded in unison.
On the other side, on the Warriors bench, Nelson also arranged offensive and defensive tactics.
“Run away, speed up the offensive tempo, make the guys on the opposite side run exhausted, and take decisive action when you have the opportunity.
If there is no chance, let Sun handle the ball. "
Nelson only arranged offensive tactics, leaving the players to solve their own defense problems.
Not long after, the timeout ended and the game continued.
After this timeout, both sides sent out all their main players.
Sun Yi saw Reed playing again and asked Morrow to continue provoking.
But Reed remained indifferent and did not fall for the trick again, running without the ball in a meticulous manner.
Seeing this situation, Sun Yi could only give up his plan and concentrate on the game.
In this attack, the Bucks players followed the head coach's instructions and attacked the inside.
Bogut ran to the low post area on the right side, leaned on Randolph to receive the pass, stuck out his butt, pushed away Randolph, turned into the penalty area and scored a layup, breaking the Bucks' scoring drought.
The Warriors served quickly, and Sun Yi quickly advanced after receiving the ball and launched a run and gun.
The Bucks' players retreated very quickly, keeping a close eye on their defender without losing position.
Seeing that there was no chance, Sun Yi broke through directly into the penalty area. Seeing Yin Lyasova retreating, he immediately stopped and made a jump shot.
Yin Lyasova reacted quickly, adjusted his center of gravity, and then rushed forward to interfere, but the effect was minimal.
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
Under the basket, Bogut grabbed the rebound and passed the ball out.
Jennings quickly advanced after receiving the ball. After arriving outside the three-point line, he changed his body to shake Curry away and broke through towards the basket.
Sun Yi and Randolph retreated to the penalty area to close the door and beat the dog.
Jennings didn't hit the ball and distributed the ball.
Yinlyasova, who was ambushing in the bottom corner, received the pass. When he raised the ball to shoot, he saw a Warriors player pounce on him and immediately passed the ball.
Reed, who was outside the three-point line on the right, received the pass and hit a three-pointer.
After being scored by the Bucks one after another, Sun Yi felt that he had to be steady and improve his success rate.
In this attack, Sun Yi dribbled to the top of the arc and waved to Curry.
Seeing that Sun Yi did not make any tactical gestures, Curry understood and ran up.
When Sun Yi saw Curry running outside the three-point line, he immediately passed the ball and ran towards the basket.
Yin Lyasova immediately turned around to pursue him, but he did not expect that Sun Yi killed a carbine and failed to follow up.
After Sun Yi ran back, he set an off-ball screen for Curry and blocked Jennings.
"Hey man, didn't expect me to be here!"
After hearing this, Zhan Ningsi gritted his teeth angrily and clenched his fists.
I really want to beat this bitch up!
On the other side, Curry used the screen to break into the three-point line and hit a jump shot, stabilizing the situation on the court.
Looking back, Bogut hit the inside and was double-teamed. He split the ball and assisted Yin Lyasova to hit a three-pointer, continuing the offensive firepower.
In the subsequent game, both sides showed their talents, played to their own advantages, and each scored points, so that the score could not be opened.
At the end of the half, the score on the big screen was 58 to 49. The Warriors led by 9 points entering the second half.
During the halftime break, the head coaches of both teams took their players back to their respective locker rooms to rest and prepare for the second half of the game.
