The game continues and the Warriors attack.
Curry quickly dribbled forward and passed the ball just after halftime.
Outside the three-point line on the right, Sun Yi received the pass, made a triple threat action, and took a tentative step.
Kenyon Martin saw this situation and did not step forward to defend.
After he suffered a serious injury, his athletic ability dropped significantly and he was no longer as brave as he once was.
If you rush forward to defend closely, you will probably be passed by the rookie in front of you.
On the other side, seeing that Kenyon Martin was indifferent, Sun Yi took back his tentative step and raised his hand to fake a shot.
Kenyon Martin knew that Sun Yi had the ability to shoot three-pointers and did not dare to take it lightly. He reacted quickly, tilted his center of gravity forward, and stretched his arms to interfere.
Sun Yi immediately started, taking a relatively quick step past Kenny Martin and breaking into the three-point line.
"Hey! This guy Kenyon is really unreliable, and I have to clean up the mess."
Seeing that his teammate was easily passed, Nene Hilario sighed helplessly and shrank towards the basket to defend.
Sun Yi rushed into the penalty area and saw Nene Hilario standing one step in front of the reasonable collision zone, waiting for his arrival. Instead of continuing to break towards the basket, he stopped and jumped directly, and threw the basketball in his hand.
Nene Hilario quickly jumped in to interfere, but it didn't help.
The basketball passed Nene Hilario's fingertips, bounced off the board and into the basket.
"Good shot! Xiao Sun played the ball very smartly. I knew you couldn't come out, so I shot it decisively from the outside. The effect was really good!" Director Zhang commented with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, the Nuggets attacked and still created singles opportunities for Anthony.
Sun Yi was speechless when he saw this.
If you co-write, you can only play singles and not other offensive tactics? !
This time, as soon as Anthony received the pass, Sun Yi quickly caught up and double-teamed.
Little Melon retreated and passed the ball.
After many passes, Afflalo got an opportunity from the outside and shot a three-pointer.
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
Sun Yi retreated into the penalty area to grab the rebound. After landing, he accurately found his teammate on the fast break with a long pass from the quarterback.
Ellis received the pass and came to the three-point line. Seeing the Nuggets players retreating towards the penalty area, he stopped and took off to shoot.
"when!"
The basketball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.
"Hey! This Ellis' play is so unreasonable. It's great to score by rushing to the basket!" Coach Zhang said with hatred.
Su Qun was silent on the side. He felt that Director Zhang had some double standards.
If Ellis were replaced by Sun Yi, Director Zhang would only feel regretful, not that the playing was unreasonable.
Whether it is reasonable or not depends on the person!
The Nuggets protected the backcourt rebounds, and Billups took his time dribbling forward.
When he came to the right side of the three-pointer, he suddenly shot the basketball in his hand.
Seeing this situation, Curry immediately rushed to interfere, but it didn't help.
Swish!
Hollow into the net!
7:6!
The Nuggets overtook the score for the first time!
Curry raised his hand to indicate that it was his fault.
He didn't expect that the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him would actually conduct a sneak attack.
When the Warriors attack, the elementary school students will definitely be vindictive and want to return the favor.
After reaching the top of the arc, Curry made a tactical gesture towards Sun Yi, calling for pick-and-roll cooperation.
Sun Yi understood it and immediately ran up to cover without the ball, firmly blocking Billups.
Curry bypassed the screen, jumped directly, and shot the basketball in his hand.
Kenyon Martin, who switched defenses, immediately rushed to interfere. He knew that the Warriors had such a style of play and did not take it lightly.
Bang!
The basketball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced out hard.
It was a long rebound that bounced near the free throw line.
Sun Yi, who was ready for the pick-and-roll, rushed to the free throw line area and jumped up hard to grab the offensive rebound.
After landing, Sun Yi saw the Nuggets players surrounding him and immediately passed the ball out.
Ellis received the pass from outside the three-point line on the right and hit a three-pointer with his hands.
7:9!
In the next round, the Nuggets changed their offensive approach.
Billups dribbled to the outside of the three-point line, waved to the inside, and called for pick-and-roll cooperation.
Nene Hilario quickly ran forward to set up a pick-and-roll.
Billups used the screen to get rid of Curry's switch and broke into the three-point line.
On the other side, Nene Hilario immediately cut towards the penalty area after blocking.
Seeing this, Sun Yi immediately rushed back to the basket to help defend.
Billups had no chance to see his teammates and could only handle the ball by himself.
Immediately, he used small to hit big, changed direction to shake away Randolph, who was changing defense, and hit a step-back jumper.
After that, the Warriors quickly served and hit the starting point.
Maggette cut towards the basket, received the pass, and leaned on Nene Hilario to miss the layup.
Looking back, the Nuggets turned into a defensive counterattack.
In the transition stage of offense and defense, Afflalo hit a mid-range jumper.
Seeing that the Nuggets were about to gain momentum, Sun Yi suppressed the rhythm, dribbled forward slowly, and went to the top of the arc to organize the attack.
At this time, it was the team boss's turn to step up and stabilize the situation.
Ellis quickly ran forward, passed by Sun Yi, received the pass hand-in-hand, and then broke through into the penalty area.
After Sun Yi passed the ball, he took a step to block the pursuing Afflalo.
"Man, this road is blocked, please take another detour."
Afflalo heard Sun Yi's teasing and couldn't help but beat this guy up. He was so mean!
On the other side, Ellis quickly rushed into the penalty area, jumped into the air, twirled and moved in the air, pulled the lever to avoid interference from Nene Hilario, and hit a layup.
The audience burst into applause, and cheers and shouts resounded throughout the arena.
Warriors fans noticed that Ellis seemed to have changed, and he was a completely different person from the previous game.
Although they didn't know what was happening, they were very happy to see that the team they supported was developing in a good direction.
Back on the court, the Nuggets failed to score this offense.
Nene Hilario missed a hard hit inside, and Sun Yi retreated from the basket to grab the rebound and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt.
The Warriors launched a defensive counterattack again, and the players started running quickly.
Maggette and Randolph cut into the penalty area, while Curry and Ellis settled outside the three-point line.
After the Nuggets' defense was torn open, Sun Yi broke through and scored, assisting Curry to hit a three-pointer.
The tables turned and the Warriors began to gain the upper hand.
At this time, Anthony, the boss of the Nuggets, stepped forward and scored 5 points with sudden shots, overtaking the score again and stabilizing the situation on the court.
In the next few rounds, both sides gradually got better and better, each relying on their own methods to score points.
In this way, after about 8 minutes of the first quarter, the head coaches of the two teams began to make substitution adjustments.
The Warriors replaced Sun Yi and Curry and replaced Laga Bell and Radmanovic.
The Nuggets replaced Billups and Nene Hilario and replaced them with Anthony Carter and Chris Anderson.
After substitutions and adjustments, the game continued.
The Warriors' lineup on the field is dominated by Ellis and Maggette.
Nelson wanted to see how these two guys would fare without Sun Yi and Curry.
If it's not ideal, don't blame him for making some changes and adjusting his shot.
Anthony is the main offensive point for the Nuggets.
The fans at the scene were a little nervous when they saw the Warriors' lineup, worried that Ellis would mess up again.
This time, Ellis didn't dare to play nonsense and strictly implemented the tactics assigned by the coach, and the results were good.
But when it comes to the hot little melon, everything is in vain.
In the remaining three minutes or so of the first quarter, Anthony made 3 of 5 shots and 2 free throws, scoring 8 points, helping the Nuggets widen the point difference in one fell swoop.
In this way, the first quarter ended, the score on the big screen was 28 to 22, and the Nuggets led by 6 points entering the second quarter.
During the break, Sun Yi looked up at the data board and frowned slightly.
Anthony scored 17 points in the first quarter and felt extremely hot.
If this continues, his mission goal will not be accomplished.
"I have to defend Anthony in the next game. Even if I lose, I will be convinced."
After Sun Yi made his plan, he told Old Nelson his thoughts.
"Sun, do what you want." Old Nelson agreed without hesitation.
In his opinion, only Sun Yi among the Warriors can limit Anthony in single defense.
Not long after, the inter-section break ended and the second quarter began.
The Warriors' lineup is: Curry, Moreau, Reggie Williams, Sun Yi, Tolliver.
The five players on the field all have three-point shooting ability and can greatly open up the offensive space.
The Nuggets' lineup is: Billups, J.R. Smith, Graham, Anderson, Nene Hilario.
The second quarter started with the Nuggets attacking first.
Billups dribbled outside the three-point line and handed the ball to J.R. Smith.
During the rotation stage, JR Smith is undoubtedly the main offensive point of the Nuggets.
During this period, JR Smith had very good athletic ability and often scored top-five goals. He was very capable.
But this guy will short-circuit from time to time, and his performance is also ups and downs. He is one of the representatives of the Nervous Knife.
Many industry experts believe that if JR Smith has an excellent golf IQ, he will definitely become an All-Star.
In this round, JR Smith started to get angry and made a pull-up jumper directly against Morrow's defense.
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
After J.R. Smith finished his shot, the Nuggets players quickly returned to defense, leaving only Nene Hilario to fight for the rebound.
At the basket, Tolliver is not as tall as Nene Hilario, so he can only rely on his solid foothold to create rebound opportunities for his teammates.
Sun Yi rushed back to the basket, easily grabbed the rebound, and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt.
Other Warriors players moved according to the tactical arrangement.
When Sun Yi dribbled the ball to the top of the key, he glanced at the penalty area and passed the ball to the right.
Tolliver, who was outside the three-point line on the right, received the pass. With no one in front of him, he jumped up and shot.
Tolliver's three-point shooting percentage this season is 33%, and he averages one three-pointer per game, which is very reliable.
Under the effect of the badge [Dealing Cards at the Top of the Arc], the basketball hit the net and hit a three-pointer!
28:25!
The ball transitions and the Nuggets attack.
Billups dribbled outside the three-point line, allowing J.R. Smith to step forward for a pick-and-roll matchup.
After the pick-and-roll, Billups passed the ball back to J.R. Smith.
"This goal should be able to score!"
Billups felt like he had done enough, just missing the damn basketball for J.R. Smith.
If this guy still can't score, there's really no cure.
Near the free throw line, J.R. Smith received the pass and without even looking at the rookie in front of him, he straightened up and shot.
When Curry saw this, he was furious. He felt that this guy was too arrogant and needed to impress him, so he immediately stretched out his arms and rushed forward, closing his eyes to defend.
During this period, the use of eye sealing defense has not been banned, and the effect is very good.
JR-Smith saw the palm suddenly appearing in front of him, and his emotions fluctuated, which affected his shooting posture.
"when!"
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
On the Nuggets bench, head coach George Karl couldn't stand it anymore. He came to the sidelines and shouted on the court: "Play patiently, don't be impatient!"
After hearing this, JR Smith nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
The head coach’s will cannot be violated!
On the court, the Warriors protected the backcourt rebounds and launched defensive counterattacks.
Curry quickly dribbled the ball forward, changed direction and shook off Billups who was delayed, and accelerated towards the front court again.
"The Evil God"
At the same time, the other three members of the Warriors ran to the three-point line and positioned themselves, and Sun Yi took the opportunity to cut towards the basket.
Curry immediately passed the ball and then quickly ran without the ball.
After receiving the ball, Sun Yi rushed into the penalty area, attracted double-teams from the defense, and distributed the ball.
Reggie Williams in the right corner received the pass and hit a three-pointer.
28:28!
The Warriors tied the score again!
The audience immediately burst into cheers and shouts, cheering for the home team.
Nuggets head coach George Karl didn't expect the Warriors' counterattack to come so quickly, and they evened the difference in an instant.
But he was not in a hurry to make adjustments and wanted to take a look.
Back on the court, the Nuggets attack.
Billups didn't pass the ball to the brainless J.R. Smith this time.
He used the screen to get rid of Curry's pursuit, came to the mid-range area on the right, and hit a jump shot.
Once again it was the Warriors' turn to attack.
Curry quickly dribbled the ball to the top of the arc to organize the offense.
This time the Nuggets stretched their defense.
When they saw the Warriors hitting consecutive three-pointers, their mentality was a little shaken.
Because they don't know if the next three-pointer will continue to hit.
Sun Yi took the opportunity to run back and get rid of Birdman Anderson's defense, and cut towards the basket.
Curry quickly threw the ball to the basket with quick eyes and hands.
Sun Yi, who rushed into the penalty area, jumped into the air and stretched out his arms to grab the basketball in the air.
At the same time, Anderson, the chasing birdman, jumped up and waved his arms to hit the basketball.
Snap!
Sun Yi felt his right arm was hit hard, but it did not affect his alley-oop dunk at all.
Immediately, he grabbed the basketball with his left hand and dunked it into the basket.
"Beep! The Nuggets' No. 11 player fouled, and the goal is effectively an additional penalty."
The referee blew his whistle and gestured toward the technical table.
"And-One! Sun Yi hit the ball really hard!"
Su Qun praised Sun Yi's performance before Director Zhang.
On the sidelines, Nuggets head coach George Karl couldn't sit still at all. He immediately came to Anthony's side and gave some instructions before letting him come on to stabilize the situation.
