The timeout comes back and the game continues.
The Warriors replaced Ellis and Maggette and replaced Moreau and Reggie Williams.
Except for Randolph, who has no three-point shooting ability, everyone else in this lineup has three-point shooting skills, which can greatly open up the offensive space.
The Kings also made substitution adjustments, with Dante Green replacing Jason Thompson.
After substitution adjustments, it was Martin's turn to make two free throws.
Amid the cheers and shouts of the home fans, Martin stood on the free throw line, received the basketball from the referee, and made two free throws steadily.
8:7!
The ball transitions and the Warriors attack.
Curry dribbles the ball forward quickly, and at the same time reaches out and gestures to direct his teammates to move.
Morrow took a position near the 45° angle outside the right three-point line, Reggie Williams ran to the left corner to ambush, and Randolph ran forward to play a pick-and-roll.
In the high post area on the left, Sun Yi started quickly, used a reverse run to get rid of Dante Green, and cut toward the basket.
The elementary school student has quick eyes and quick hands and throws the ball to the basket.
Sun Yi, who rushed into the penalty area, jumped into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air and dunked it into the basket.
On the Kings bench, head coach Westphal shook his head helplessly.
Using a power forward to defend the Warriors' No. 9 player is simply giving away points, and the speed cannot match it at all.
"It seems that I can only try the effect with a small forward."
Westphal made plans, came to Nocioni, gave him a few instructions, and asked him to go to the waiting area to prepare.
"The Sword Comes"
On the court, Evans dribbled the ball across half court, handed it to Martin, and then ran towards the penalty area.
Martin received the pass, faked a shot, and tried to draw a foul.
Moreau was indifferent and stared at Martin intently.
During the timeout, Nelson specifically emphasized not to jump easily when defending shots, just reach out to interfere. He will not make mistakes.
Martin made another fake move and shook his head. Seeing that Morrow didn't respond, he jumped up and threw the basketball in his hand.
Morrow reacted quickly and stretched his arms to interfere.
When Martin saw this, he felt a little depressed. It would be difficult to cause a foul later.
"Dang!"
The ball was shot short and bounced off the front of the basket.
Randolph grabbed the rebound and passed it to Curry to advance with the dribble.
At the same time, Sun Yi, Moreau and Reggie Williams quickly rushed towards the frontcourt.
After Curry caught the ball, he immediately passed the ball forward.
Sun Yi, who was on a fast break, received the pass and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt.
The Kings did not retreat in time, and only Casspi and Evans retreated.
The Warriors got a three-on-two opportunity in the frontcourt.
Sun Yi took the lead and rushed into the penalty area from the right side. After attracting the defense, he hit the ball to the center and passed it.
Reggie Williams, who followed up, received the pass, jumped up hard, and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.
The Kings quickly sent a baseline ball and wanted to play a fast break, but Sun Yi saw through it. He jumped up hard to intercept the basketball in the air, and immediately passed the ball after landing.
Evans immediately hugged Morrow and took a tactical foul.
During the dead ball period, the Kings made substitution adjustments, replacing Nocioni and Dante Green.
After substitution adjustments, the Warriors have the ball.
After receiving the ball, Curry went to the top of the arc to organize the offense.
Sun Yi looked at the defender in front of him and ran quickly without the ball but couldn't get rid of it.
"It seems like the Kings have worked hard to guard me!"
Unable to get rid of the defense, Sun Yi immediately ran forward and set an off-ball screen for Curry.
The elementary school student bypassed the screen, broke through into the penalty area, rushed to the basket and flew for a layup. He was interfered with and failed to score.
The Kings protected the backcourt rebounds, and Evans dribbled forward unhurriedly and controlled the rhythm.
After arriving outside the three-point line, he made a tactical gesture and called for pick-and-roll cooperation.
This time the pick-and-roll tactics were very successful. Evans got an open shot and hit a mid-range jumper, scoring 2 points.
Randolph picked up the basketball on the floor, quickly exited the baseline, and sent the ball out.
After Sun Yi received the ball, he quickly dribbled the ball across the half court. When he saw his teammates running out of opportunities, he immediately passed the ball over.
Morrow came out to receive the pass and shot a three-pointer.
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
At the basket, after Hawes grabbed the rebound, he immediately found Evans and passed the ball over.
After receiving the ball, Evans launched a defensive counterattack.
In the transition period between offense and defense, Casspi received a pass from Evans and missed a mid-range jumper.
Sun Yi retreated to the basket, grabbed the rebound, and used a quarterback-style pass to find his teammates on the fast break.
After receiving the pass, Reggie Williams rushed to the basket and scored a layup.
Looking back, the Kings once again played a fast attack.
Martin faced Curry out of position and hit a pull-up jumper.
The Warriors are not far behind. When it comes to quick offense, they are not afraid of any team.
In the chaos, Morrow received a wonderful pass and hit a three-pointer with a knife in his hand.
In the next game, the offensive and defensive rhythm was very fast, and the score kept rising.
When the first quarter of the game reached about 7 minutes, the head coaches of both sides made substitutions and adjustments.
The Warriors replaced Curry, Sun Yi and Randolph and replaced Ellis, Maggette and Radmanovic.
The Kings replaced Evans, Casspi and Hawes and replaced Udrih, Jason Thompson and Garcia.
Ellis, who came on again, stared at Martin.
Being beaten down before made Xiao Gongju feel extremely aggrieved and decided to find his place again.
At the same time, Kevin Martin's eyes lit up when he saw Ellis play. He likes to play against players who are strong in offense and weak in defense, and his confidence greatly increased.
As a result, the rest of the first quarter became a one-on-one moment for these two guys.
Xiao Gongju and Kevin Martin each used their special skills to lead the team forward. The two competed with each other, and neither one could take advantage.
In this way, the first quarter ended, and the score on the big screen was 28 to 24. The Warriors led by 4 points entering the second quarter.
The short inter-section rest ends and the second quarter begins.
The Warriors' lineup in the second quarter: Curry, Laga Bell, Sun Yi, Randolph, Tolliver.
The Kings lineup: Evans, Udrih, Casspi, Dante Green, Hawes.
As soon as the Kings came up, the Kings completed the pick-and-roll, and Evans assisted Hawes to complete the dunk, recovering 2 points.
The Warriors quickly hit the baseline and launched a run and gun.
Curry dribbled the ball across half court and immediately passed the ball.
Sun Yi received the pass and shook it. Seeing that Casspi was indifferent, he immediately released the ball and broke through into the penalty area.
Casspi, like Sun Yi, was a rookie in the 2009 class. After entering the league, his body had not had time to lose weight, and his confrontation ability was very poor.
Sun Yi, who was dribbling a breakthrough, squeezed and knocked Casspi back a few steps. He took this opportunity to accelerate toward the basket.
After Dante Green and Hawes saw their teammates being passed, they immediately rushed back to the basket to make up defense.
Sun Yi didn't fight head-on and gave the ball away.
Randolph received a pass and hit a mid-range jumper.
After the goal, the Warriors players quickly returned to defense and blocked the Kings' attack.
Sun Yi grabbed the rebound and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt.
At the same time, other Warriors players quickly launched a fast break, tearing apart the Kings' defense.
After Sun Yi came outside the three-point line, seeing Curry running out of opportunity, he immediately passed the ball over and completed the "Sun-Ku" connection.
The primary school student seized the opportunity and quickly threw the basketball in his hand, leaving Udri who came to defend in vain.
Swish!
Hollow into the net!
33:26!
The Kings responded quickly. Evans used the screen to break into the paint and hit Randolph for a layup.
It was the Warriors' turn to attack, and Curry dribbled the ball to outside the three-point line to organize the offense.
Sun Yi quickly came out with the help of Randolph's screen, received Curry's pass, and missed a mid-range jumper.
For such a good opportunity, missing a hit is equivalent to a mistake.
Curry couldn't help complaining when he saw this scene.
"Isn't this guy Sun playing me?!"
When Sun Yi saw the primary school student looking over, he raised his hand in embarrassment to indicate that it was his fault, then turned around and quickly returned to defense.
Looking back, in order to make up for his previous mistakes, Sun Yi worked very hard on the defensive end and helped interfere with Udrih's jump shot, which can be regarded as making up for it.
The Warriors protected the backcourt rebound and launched a defensive counterattack.
Curry dribbled to a position about half a meter outside the three-point line, stopped and jumped, and threw the basketball in his hand.
Although the elementary school student had made such a shot before, the Kings players did not take it to heart, thinking that it was a deviant and random shot that would not score a goal.
But this time the super long three-pointer really hit the mentality of the Kings players.
I saw the basketball in the air drawing a perfect arc and accurately drilling into the net.
The audience suddenly fell silent, and after a while, there was an overwhelming applause.
Curry's super long three-pointer conquered the home fans.
On the court, Evans quickly ran to the baseline to catch the ball.
He didn't take this ball seriously. He felt that Curry was lucky and hit a three-pointer that shocked the audience. The same thing would never happen again.
After receiving the pass, Evans dribbled to the three-point line without haste and made a tactical gesture.
Hawes quickly ran to the right corner and provided Udri with an off-ball screen.
Udrih immediately bypassed the screen, cut towards the baseline towards the basket, received a pass from Evans, rushed to the basket from the right and flew for a layup.
At this moment, Sun Yi, who had retreated to the basket, took off with all his strength, stretched out his arm to hit the rising basketball.
Snap!
The basketball was slapped on the backboard by Sun Yi and bounced out.
Randolph grabbed the rebound and passed it to Curry to advance with the dribble.
The elementary school student received the pass, quickly ran towards the frontcourt, came to the three-point line, and hit a three-pointer against Evans' defense.
After scoring the goal, Curry shook his head excitedly and made a celebration gesture of stretching out his hands and counting 1,234.
When Sun Yi returned to defense, he passed by Curry and made a joke.
"Stephen, your head-shaking celebration is too arrogant. You have to change it, or you may get beaten."
Curry jokingly replied: "Sun, I have been very low-key, but I just can't hide my domineering spirit."
"I think you are a bastard."
Sun Yi bickered with Curry for a while and quickly returned to his defensive area.
The Kings attack, and they urgently need to score points in this round to stabilize the situation on the court.
Evans did not cooperate with the pick-and-roll, but carried Curry to the mid-range area on the left and hit a jumper.
39:30!
In the next round, Curry was completely in high spirits, bypassing the screen, jumping directly, twisting his body and shooting the ball.
"Uh-huh!"
The basketball hits the net hollowly and hits the target steadily!
42:30!
Relying on the sudden burst of primary school students, the score difference was widened to double digits.
Seeing the Warriors' No. 30 player hitting three three-pointers in succession, Kings head coach Westphal couldn't sit still and immediately requested a timeout.
After Evans and others returned to the bench, Westphal immediately took the tactical board, drew on it, and laid out tactics.
"Kevin, next you keep an eye on Warriors player No. 30 and don't let him shoot a three-pointer easily."
Evans wants to organize the offense and cannot devote energy to defense. Westphal can only let Kevin Martin complete this task.
After hearing this, Martin nodded and accepted the task.
Although his defense isn't great, I think it should be more than enough to deal with a rookie.
Westphal breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Martin agree.
He thought Martin would be angry, but he didn't expect him to be so reasonable.
If the Kings management had not already made a decision, Westphal would have wanted to protect Martin.
Every head coach likes such high-quality players very much. He wonders if the Kings management has been kicked in the head by a donkey to propose such a ridiculous deal.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Westphal continued to arrange tactics for the players.
Not long after, the timeout time came and the referee blew the whistle to signal the players on both sides to return to the court.
After returning from the timeout, both sides replaced their main players.
The Kings attacked, and Evans broke through into the penalty area, attracted double-teams and then distributed the ball.
Sun Yi hurried back to defend but was a step too late.
Nocioni received the pass and made a very determined shot, recovering 2 points.
It was the Warriors' turn to attack, and Curry used the pick-and-roll to make another three-pointer.
This time he missed the shot and the basketball bounced out of the frame.
Randolph jumped up hard and hit the ball.
Sun Yi grabbed the basketball, took advantage of the Kings' defensive formation being disrupted, rushed into the paint, and scored with a one-handed dunk.
The Kings attacked, and Martin hit a three-pointer against Ellis' defense, chasing the point difference to within ten points.
Xiao Gongju must have been unconvinced when he was raped in front of him.
In the next round, with the help of Sun Yi's screen, he broke into the penalty area and made a layup to score two plus one, which was regarded as a return goal.
Standing on the free throw line, Ellis received the referee's pass and without interference from the outside world, he steadily hit the extra penalty.
The Kings continued their firepower, and Evans used the screen to get rid of the defense and hit a mid-range jumper.
Looking back, Curry also competed with Evans and scored a three-pointer again.
The Kings will not give up easily. Their goal in this game has not been achieved yet.
This time the Kings used double screens to create opportunities for Evans to rush to the basket and complete a dunk.
The Warriors responded quickly, with Curry and Sun Yi completing the connection.
Sun Yi rushed into the penalty area, jumped into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air and dunked it into the basket.
Seeing that the score was about to open, Martin once again used his unique skill to "touch porcelain" and win a free throw.
The Warriors are almost all young players, and they have basically been touched by Martin and learned lessons.
Relying on Martin's "explosive penalty power", the score difference was gradually narrowed.
At the critical moment, Curry and Sun Yi each scored a three-pointer to stabilize the situation and gain the lead again.
In this way, the Kings relied on Evans and Martin to score points and cling to the score.
The Warriors relied on Curry, Sun Yi and Xiao Gongju to maintain their lead.
At the end of the half, the score displayed on the big screen was 60 to 50. The Warriors led by 10 points entering the second half.
The head coaches of the two teams quickly walked into the tunnel with their respective players and returned to the locker room to rest and prepare for the second half of the game.
