The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 462 Injured
It's really exciting to play against a strong team.

Zhang Xiaotian was still very excited to boost morale during the intermission.

For the performance of the first half, Popovich is still satisfied, the team's defense did it.

Although Curry and Durant still played well, this is enough. It is their victory to turn the Warriors' death five into a Gemini mode.

Popovich praised Aldridge by name. His performance made the Spurs not need to compete with each other in singles.

There is a point inside, with Zhang Xiaotian as the axis, the entire team's offensive system comes alive.

In fact, Aldridge is also out of a rare state of excitement. This buddy came to the Spurs to make further progress in the playoffs. This season he finally feels like his dream is about to come true.

"Continue to pinch their passing lanes, hold the rim, don't let them cut."

The Warriors' three-pointers are terrifying, but their full participation on the offensive end is the efficiency of pick-and-rolls and air cuts, which is more important than defending them from three-pointers.

Of course, that is what the Spurs dare to say. They have Zhang Xiaotian, Leonard and Danny Green, who can block the outside line to death.

The Warriors must still be dissatisfied with their offense.

The Warriors seem to be team basketball, but like the Spurs, they are actually superstar basketball, but both of their teams can combine stars and tactics, not as simple and crude as some teams.

If the Warriors want to play out on the offensive end, their stars must play unsolvable performances, especially against a strong team like the Spurs, so that role players will have opportunities for three-pointers and air cuts.

As for the defensive end, they also have a headache. The league has done a lot of research on several first-tier teams, but it's hard to say what tactics can limit them. It's just details and focus, and then try to influence them.

Whoever can seize one more chance may change the situation of the battle.

In front of various screens, the fans of the two teams are also fighting.

Compared with the opponents in front of them, they also felt suffocating tension, strong duel, the welfare of neutral fans, and for fans of the home team, breathing was affected.

"The gods are mighty, what tsunami brothers, what death gods, kill them all."

"Hmph, the championship is the private property of the gods. I've seen through it a long time ago."

In the villa in San Antonio, someone who can only watch TV because the child is not yet one year old is rarely excited after becoming a mother. The little boy next to him also imitated his mother, shouting "babble".

Playing in the third quarter, Curry opened up when he came up.

Ignore the defense and drive directly, just throw it in.

Zhang Xiaotian understands this situation very well. When he is in a team, other people only need to call "666" at this time to clock in and leave work.

Zhang Xiaotian felt that it was more terrifying than James for the open shot, which was completely unreasonable.

Although the Warriors will give Durant singles at many critical moments this season, Zhang Xiaotian has always felt that Curry is the most dangerous opponent.

The Spurs are not afraid of Durant's unsolvable singles. The last thing they like to encounter is unreasonable. Durant is unreasonable and powerful, but Curry is not.

Offense can affect defense and vice versa.

Because of Curry's madness, the Spurs' players' mentality has undergone some changes, and the offensive end has also fluctuated.

When the opponent has a star stand up and show off his power, someone must return it. Sometimes the league does not fully talk about tactics, especially when it is a strong confrontation, it is like a single battle between the generals in the game, which can affect morale.

Zhang Xiaotian hasn't cheated yet, but with his current strength, he won't be cowardly at all.

Although he can't shoot as exaggeratedly as Curry, it is still no problem to go back with the ball in singles.

He is a little afraid of the defense of the five opponents, that is, Durant and Draymond Green, but the others are fine, even if Iguodala comes up.

"Three-point hit, Zhang Xiaotian responded."

"The referee blew the whistle, Zhang Xiaotian got a free throw, and Curry scored 3 points in 11 minutes, but he didn't beat his opponent, because this is the stage of the Western Conference Finals, and his opponent is the Spurs."

"Curry... made a mistake, the ball was in the hands of the Spurs, Zhang Xiaotian caught the ball, Clay didn't keep up, Pachulia stepped forward to defend, Zhang Xiaotian easily swayed away and stepped back for a jumper."

"What happened... Zhang fell to the ground with a painful expression on his face."

Zhang Xiaotian felt like he was a dog, the other party didn't pounce on him, he was careless.

He landed on Pachulia's foot, and the ankle snapped hard.

When the scene was played back on the big screen, it was clear that Pachulia stretched his feet forward.

The Spurs fans were outraged, and Zhang Xiaotian's hardcore fans were already scolding on the Internet.

Whether this movement is inertia or intentional, Zhang Xiaotian didn't pay attention, he only feels very painful now.

No, he can't go wrong.

Back in the locker room, Zhang Xiaotian refused further inspection, but said that he would take it easy and did not want to be disturbed.

He lay down and covered the company with a towel, and went directly into the system training room.

Now the training room can also recover from injuries, if not serious, it will be very fast.

In fact, there is also a recovery potion, but the training room can improve the ability by the way, and the victory points cannot be wasted.

The game was still going on on the court. After Zhang Xiaotian went down, the defensive pressure on the Warriors was much lower. The most obvious thing was that Aldridge had fewer opportunities.

Now that Parker is not here, Leonard temporarily assumes the task of organizing.

Leonard is not good at this aspect. When he comes, he is actually playing singles. He did it before Zhang Xiaotian came, but he is a little rusty now.

In fact, Leonard can still lead the team to score points, but Curry and Durant are now more efficient.

The Warriors were not affected too much, and soon the point difference between the two sides came to single digits.

In the fourth quarter, Leonard only went down to rest for more than a minute, but the team's situation continued to deteriorate. Without Zhang Xiaotian, Leonard was under a lot of defensive pressure.

After Durant played in the fourth quarter, he scored consecutively against the defense, and the score was getting closer.

At this time, Curry had enough rest, and after he played again, the Spurs' defense suddenly became under pressure.

I couldn't stop it anymore, I was pressing the opponent from the beginning of the game, and I couldn't stand it at the last moment.

The Spurs fans cheered loudly for the team, but the Spurs players who have changed their mentality have fluctuated in shooting percentage, are they about to lose?

Zhang Xiaotian sat up in the locker room, and he could hear the fans shouting here, he couldn't wait any longer.

It's too late for the practice room to recover, so just buy the props, isn't it just 20 victory points?

Accumulating victory points during the regular season, isn't it for now.

A bottle of injury recovery potion, Zhang Xiaotian felt that he hadn't fully recovered, and it was very serious to take it down, but it was enough for the time being.
