Chapter 903 Stubborn Cole, the boss takes responsibility(2/2)
And in the next round, Green successfully blocked Batum's layup, and the Warriors immediately launched a defensive counterattack.
The Trail Blazers returned to defense very quickly, but the Warriors failed to complete the fast break. Seeing that the two sides could only fall into a positional battle and slowly grind out the rhythm, Green suddenly came out from the low post to the top of the arc, received Curry's sudden pass, and hit the target.
The second three-pointer of the game.
Due to Wang Zelin's brief relaxation, Green actually hit consecutive long-range shots, helping the Warriors narrow the point difference to single digits.
The Warriors are strong this season. In addition to the splash brothers Curry and Thompson, Green's performance on the outside is also crucial.
In the last game, Green was completely strangled, causing the latter not to score a single three-pointer. Today, Wang Zelin was inevitably a little relaxed and focused mainly on the three-point line.
But he never thought that this would actually allow Green to seize the opportunity.
Of course, this is also inseparable from the trust that Cole and Curry have in Green. In the last game, they made 0 of 5 three-pointers and 0 of 2 in the first quarter. After seven games in a row, the Warriors still dared to pass the ball to Green, but Green failed.
It is indeed his ability to still hit.
After scoring the goal, Green beat his chest and roared, feeling very excited.
Considering how aggrieved he felt during this series, it is not difficult to understand.
Beverley dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, saw the boss reaching out, and continued to hoist the ball in.
Cole's insistence on using the fifth primary school is a story about his coaching habits and his trust in Green!
What the Trail Blazers are doing now is their trust in Wang Zelin!
Wang Zelin held the ball and hit Green with his back, and Iguodala quickly helped defend, forming a double-team with Green in tandem.
"It's dangerous! Pass the message quickly, Your Majesty..."
The fans in front of the TV became nervous and excited.
"Come on! I'm not afraid of you anymore!"
Green shouted at Wang Zelin from behind. The two three-pointers and a successful defense in front of him made his self-confidence explode again. This method not only stimulated Wang Zelin, but also helped to increase his own momentum.
Harrell was already empty in the bottom corner. He believed in his boss's vision and was ready to catch the ball.
Including the fans on the sidelines thought so too.
However, Wang Zelin, who was flanked by two people, did not distribute the ball this time, but chose to continue playing from behind.
Play aggressive generals?
Then I will do as you wish!
Kenny Smith immediately explained: "In terms of shot selection, this is a wrong choice. Wang is too irrational. It is obvious that his teammates are empty..."
Magic Johnson suddenly laughed and said: "My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. At this critical moment, as the team boss, you have to stand up and carry the team forward. I look forward to his performance!"
The two explanations each have their own reasons, which has a lot to do with the different roles they played in their playing careers.
Kenny Smith was known as the "Jet" as a player, mainly because of his speed. Later, he won two championship rings with the Mosaics in 2001.
But the main position of his career is just a piece of the championship puzzle. He is important, but it is far less than Magic Johnson, who served as the team's absolute ace core for most of his career.
This resulted in a different state of mind between the two!
The former only needs to fulfill their responsibilities on the court and shoot those damn open balls; while the latter needs to choose more seemingly "unreasonable" shots.
Just like Wang Zelin, who was facing two defenders on the court at this moment, but stubbornly chose to fight by himself.
At this time, as the team leader, he will not give up the ball.
Because of his negligence earlier, Green easily scored two three-pointers, and now it's his turn to respond.
"Bang! Bang!"
There was a big muscular collision under the Warriors basket, and the audience in the front row could hear it at close range.
Green was hit and kept retreating. Wang Zelin suddenly turned around. Green was too late and pounced on him immediately.
But don't forget, there is Iguodala guarding him?
Wang Zelin turned around and jumped up with all his strength. Iguodala also took off, and his hands went straight to the basketball in Wang Zelin's hand.
"Snapped!"
Has the hat arrived?
Defended!
A palm covered the ball, and Kerr and the Warriors players on the field were immediately overjoyed.
But then, there was another loud shout on the court, and Wang Zelin completely ignored Iguodala in front of him, used his hands again, and slammed the ball down.
"boom!"
Wang Zelin slammed the ball into the basket through Iguodala.
The scene exploded instantly.
This is a personal dunk!
There were so many assists in the past that people almost forgot that Trail Blazers No. 36 can not only play with technology, but also with violence!
Iguodala was knocked out of the court by Wang Zelin. He looked helpless and looked at the referee with his hands spread out, seemingly looking for a foul.
Chapter completed!
