NBA: Golden State guard

The Rockets were forced to call a timeout by Linley's explosive score.

During the timeout, their main players were exhausted, and their ultimate death five small lineup consumed too much energy. Basically, players in every position had to defend players one size bigger than themselves, even you Everyone will feel that Harden is a little thinner than in the first quarter.

D'Antoni was also hitting the tactical board hard. He kept repeating to his players the defensive points designed against Linley before the game, relying on constant physical pressure to consume Linley's physical strength and try hard to make Linley play well. Comfortable!
Both Harden and Westbrook, who were sweating profusely, nodded vigorously, indicating that they knew.

In fact, D'Antoni, as the epoch-making coach who developed the bombardment, is a visionary. A player like Linley who has hundreds of ways to score after halftime can never be completely locked up. You can only be Do your best to let him score as little as possible.

After all, the Warriors still have Curry. If you choose to double-team Linley, the Grizzlies are the best example. Curry will let you know what the first three-pointer in history is.

Soon the timeout ended and the game continued, with only 4 minutes left before the end of the third quarter.

After the Rockets came on the court, they still handed the ball to Harden. Facing Linley's defense, Harden also chose to play steadily, using his flexible footwork, and after a little more space, he directly came to the inside with a beautiful European. step layup.

Hit!The Rockets continued to stretch the score to three points!
The next goal for the Warriors is still for Linley to hit. Linley's touch is so hot, they all believe that he can continue to score!
Harden also followed D'Antoni's instructions, and stepped forward to stick close to Linley. After testing the referee's penalty scale in the first half, he also knew that as long as the physical pressure is not too excessive today, basically he will not call a foul.

Linley's three-pointer just now was too accurate, and Harden also stuck close to him, preventing him from easily taking a three-pointer.

Facing the serious defense of the bearded players, Linley was also not very good at making three-pointers directly.

He decisively used his explosive power to take a lightning-fast first step directly to the right.

Harden's reaction was also quick, and he quickly moved laterally to keep up with Linley's pace.

Linley quickly made a huge crossover, and then pulled the ball to the left. This time, Harden couldn't keep up with Linley's frequency.

Harden desperately pulled his body to his right side, but he was only halfway there.

Linley made another quicker reverse change of direction. This time, Harden felt the pressure on his ankle.

The bearded golfer said inwardly that he would be embarrassed if he was shaken down, and he desperately kept his center of gravity.

He was crumbling like a sailboat caught in a storm, and his whole body was shaking violently.

At this time, if Linley went directly to kill, Harden would have no chance of blocking Linley. After all, he was like a novice practicing yoga on a balance ball.

However, Linley's choice was beyond everyone's expectations. The new mvp directly joined the ball and took a step back. After pulling his body beyond the three-point line, he shot a decisive three-pointer!
For the fourth consecutive three-pointer!

still have!
The Warriors only replaced Linley in 2 minutes and he made all four three-pointers, scored 12 points and led the team to tie the score!

This ball was like spreading salt, Harden's favorite celebration move. After tearing a wound in Harden's heart, Linley still used pure salt-sprinkling skills, and finally evenly applied it with a brush!What is killing and punishing one's heart!This is murder!
Harden was obviously affected by Linley's mentality, and his next shot was to use his step-back three-pointer to find a place. Usually, Harden's hit rate for this move is very high, but Linley's state today Very good, after he observed that Harden's center of gravity changed, he made a decisive forward jump.

Sure enough, his prediction was very accurate!He went straight forward and blocked Harden's rarely blocked step-back three-pointer.

Linley had no time to celebrate after he capped. He had already sped up and ran wildly, struggling to catch up with the ball he had capped.

Harden also changed his usual lazy attitude. During the regular season, he would not chase this kind of ball.

But in such an important game as the first game of the series, he will still fight.

He pursued Linley closely, displaying a sense of agility that didn't fit his figure, and actually narrowed the gap in stature with Linley. He was about to catch up with Linley.

Linley came to a sudden stop without warning, and Harden couldn't stop the car all of a sudden, and he was already flying inside the three-point line. This is the danger of speeding!

After Linley walked past Harden, he didn't make any adjustments. He just got up and shot a three-pointer!
This shot did not seem to be difficult, but it really showed Linley's super body adjustment ability. While overcoming the inertia of his body, he was able to adjust his shooting posture and rhythm in such a short period of time.

Swish!
Fifth consecutive three-pointer!

Linley went crazy!
The record for three-pointers made in a single quarter in the nba playoffs was six, but Linley hit five consecutive three-pointers in less than three minutes, and he still hit every shot!

At this time, the big screen at the scene also displayed the comparison between Linley's hit count and Anthony Walker's record. The home fans were all cheering for the new mvp. Amidst the mvp shouts like a tsunami, Linley became more and more excited. The Rockets' morale was greatly reduced.

After losing Paul, this team's own strength has declined and only ranked fourth in the West. It has been able to play back and forth with the Warriors until now, purely relying on a burst of energy. , It is very likely that the score will be opened by the Warriors in an instant. The Warriors' scoring explosiveness and unreasonableness are well-deserved.

Sure enough, the Warriors entered their rhythm. Not only did they start a very fast and airtight defense on the defensive end, but they also started extremely smooth running on the offensive end.

Moreover, the entire Warriors team also wanted Linley to break a record in his career night, frequently passing the ball to Linley.

Linley also lived up to the expectations of his teammates after hitting an iron, and hit the next two three-pointers!
Linley successfully used his seven three-pointers to break Anthony Walker's record for three-pointers in a single quarter in the playoffs.

Originally, there was 1 minute left in the third quarter, and he still had a chance to continue to refresh his record.

But just like Linley's acceptance speech, he is a real warrior player, which means he is a team player. In the next few three-pointers that were not good opportunities, he did not force the shot, but transferred to the Curry or Dream Chaser in a better position.

It was this kind of teamwork that allowed the Warriors to continue to triumph in the remaining game time and successfully won the first victory in the series!
After Linley was crowned mvp tonight, he also broke the record for three-pointers in a single quarter, scoring 45 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.
