The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 314 "Battle of the Pterosaurs"!Take ten consecutive victories!
On December 2007, 12, the Warriors played against the Milwaukee Bucks at home.

This game is called "Battle of Pterosaurs" by China, implying the confrontation between Yi Jianlian and Zhang Bolong, and it is also another "China Derby" in the league.

This season, the Bucks, which selected China's rising star Yi Jianlian, had a lot more exposure than usual, which made this little town that was unknown in the ice and snow a little more angry.

There are more than tens of millions of Huaxia fans who follow the UAE, and the Milwaukee Bucks have also become the third home team in their eyes after the Warriors and Rockets, adding to their huge popularity.

Since the start of the game, even if the record is not very good, no matter where the Bucks go, there are many Chinese media and reporters following them, and the team enjoys a sense of presence that they have never had before.

And the performance of the UAE on the field did not disappoint those compatriots from the motherland who came from afar to support him.

In the first fifteen games, he averaged 15.3 points and 7.4 rebounds per game, his performance was much brighter than in his previous life.

More importantly, his personality is no longer a reserved and quiet stuffy gourd. He can often be seen actively communicating with his teammates eagerly, and he looks much more cheerful.

As early as November, the Bucks and the Rockets played the first "China Derby" of the season-"Yao Yi Showdown".

Although the momentum of the meeting between Zhang Bolong and Yao Ming was slightly inferior, the match still attracted hundreds of millions of viewers.

After all, Zhang Bolong is a point guard, but Ah Lian is an inside player. He and Yao Ming have more chances to compete face to face.

In that game, the Rockets won the victory without any surprise. Yao scored 28 points and 10 rebounds, and beat the Australian No. 10 pick with 5 points, 4 rebounds and [-] fouls.

What surprised the fans even more was that the UAE also played well. He scored a quasi double-double with 19 points and 9 rebounds!

This is his fifth NBA game!

From Yao Ming to Zhang Bolong to Yi Jianlian, including those good seedlings who are considered to have NBA potential in China are also emerging in an endless stream.

In just a few years, China's basketball talents have shown a blowout trend, and basketball has the opportunity to become the most popular "first sport" of the whole people.

If it hadn't been for the lack of hard results in international competitions, many people would have shouted the slogan of making basketball a "national sport".

Before the start of the game, Zhang Bolong and Yi Jianlian also sat together.

"Brother Long, why do I feel that your influence here is greater than in China."

It's no wonder Yi Jianlian feels this way. Now the whole of America is the aftermath of Zhang Bolong breaking the three-pointer record. He is almost the most well-known Chinese in Beacon.

"Almost, almost, all at the top level." Zhang Bolong said modestly.

"Haha, indeed, you have always been the strongest type of player in my eyes, but you scored 13 three-pointers in a single game..." Ah Lian couldn't help but sigh, "You are really there."

"Do you want to meet again today?"

Ah Lian was speechless for two seconds,

"Uh, forget it, haha, brother, please be merciful!"

……

Zhang Bolong was indeed merciful, but it was not entirely based on the purpose of letting the little brother out.

He had a sense of foreboding when his deep [-]-pointer from the stands flew to the rim.

Therefore, after making 3 of 0 three-pointers in the first quarter, Zhang Bolong decisively reduced his outside shots and began to cooperate wholeheartedly with Dior to play the organization.

In the first quarter, the UAE did not have many good offensive opportunities under Dior's defense. It only took a mid-range shot and failed to hit.

At this time, the "Zunyi Conference" has not yet been held, and Reid, "Bogu" and Xiao Mo and others are competing for the ball.

That's all for Reed, the team boss should have enough control over the ball.

But what is your little Mo so sticky to the ball?
Play yourself like an All-Star, do you have the strength?
Zhang Bolong was also a little curious. Originally, he was unwilling to take the real action. Even with his physical strength, he could only last for 108 minutes at most, and he would feel exhausted.

But seeing Mo Williams daring to fight and shoot in front of him, he doesn't mind letting the opponent know how much his defense has improved compared to last year.

In the first quarter, Williams took 7 shots in a single quarter and only hit one goal. He even made 4 of 0 shots from outside the three-point line. He was completely blocked by Zhang Bolong and his touch dropped to freezing point.

Reid is similar, 5 of 2 shots, and his performance is quite satisfactory.

Bell's defense is enough to make most guards in the league feel difficult. Unless the Bucks boss is carrying his crooked gun and explodes, he is of course included.

On the contrary, Bogut, who faced Gasol Jr., was high-spirited and repeatedly took the ball and hit his back.

Zhang Bolong also took the opportunity to complete a steal, but he hit all the remaining three shots, showing his good inside skills.

Relying on Bogut's performance, the Bucks held their ground and were only five points behind at 25:30.

But after entering the second quarter, the Bucks misfired across the board.

Harrington and Barnes hit 4 three-pointers successively, directly stopping the Bucks.

After a timeout, the situation didn't get any better.

Their bench lineup, led by Bobby Simmons and Charlie Villanueva, was covered by the Warriors' intensive firepower.

"Little K" coach Chris Kowiak had to replace the starting lineup in advance.

It's just that it's of no use.

In the second quarter, the Warriors played a 27:11 offensive climax, leading the Bucks by 21 points in one fell swoop. The game has been divided, and there is no suspense.

In the third quarter, Reed simply turned on the singles mode, took 15 shots in a single quarter, scored six goals tenaciously, and scored 16 points.

But this kind of sacrificing opportunities for teammates and using high shots in exchange for high scores will not help the team.

The Bucks still lagged behind the Warriors who played off the bench most of the time by 27:28 in a single quarter.

Huaxia's commentators and the media also unabashedly complained about his "criminal" behavior.

You know, the UAE played the full 12 minutes of the third quarter, but only got one shot.

Defending him was PJ Tucker, who was 15 centimeters lower than him, and every attack was equivalent to a misplacement.

Huaxia fans know that Tucker is good at defense, but they believe in the strength of the UAE even more.

There's nothing to say if you miss a shot, but you don't have a chance to make a phone call. This must let those lone teammates take the blame, right?

Many viewers even turned off the TV in anger because of Reed and Mo's singles.

Because Zhang Bolong had already rested on the sidelines, and Yi Jianlian could only run back and forth, so this game is a fart.

In the fourth quarter, the game was completely reduced to garbage time, and only Warriors fans still watched it with gusto.

A group of substitutes headed by Lowry have already conquered the Chinese fans with their performance and won many fans for themselves.

In the end, the Warriors beat the Bucks 120:90 at home and achieved their first 10-game winning streak in many years!
