Chapter 17 The Warriors win for the first time—the Pelicans again!
The game between the Bucks and the Cavaliers ended at 09:30, and then the game between the Warriors and the Pelicans began.

The Warriors are the sufferer of the Pelicans. Every time they meet the Pelicans in the past two years, the Warriors have performed well.What's even more surprising is that every time the Warriors lose, the team's condition is very bad, and when it is time to change, they will always encounter the Pelicans.

It is estimated that Anthony Davis will definitely think in his heart: Why is it me again!Why is it always me!
The Warriors lost one point in their last opening game, losing to the Rockets. Today they came to the home of the Pelicans and started their first game of three consecutive away games. As the defending champion, this game must not be lost again.

The Pelicans lost to the Grizzlies in the last game, and today they returned home to face the defending champion and their own bitter warriors. The whole team was full of fighting spirit and fully prepared.

The pace of the game was very fast, and everyone played very decisively as soon as it came up.

The two teams shot a lot of three-pointers, and they shot without hesitation when no one was defending the open three-pointer, and those who were defended did not fear, and shot against the defender.Outside shooting three-pointers, inside big center also shoot three-pointers.Even David West, who rarely shoots three-pointers, made a three-pointer-even scored.

The Pelicans felt very good at first, beating the Warriors 21 to 6, but after the timeout, the Warriors immediately had a climax and pulled the score within ten.

But today the Pelicans shot three-pointers very decisively, with a very high hit rate. Whether it is the Twin Towers or outside players, the three-pointers are very accurate and decisive!Hit two or three three-pointers with one step from the three-point line.

However, the Warriors are not afraid of the three-pointer. The Pelicans made a super long three-pointer, and Curry was also relentless. He returned one step outside the three-point line when he came back.

At the end of the second quarter, under the leadership of Durant, the difference between the two teams was reduced to 3 points.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Warriors played a 16-2 climax and overtook the score. Although the Pelicans narrowed the point difference to 5 points in the fourth quarter, Curry immediately returned a three-pointer, and then another Two free throws were made, and since then, the game has lost its suspense.

Throughout the game, the Twin Towers of the Pelicans performed well. Davis scored 35 points and 17 rebounds with 33% shooting, and Cousins ​​scored 14 points and [-] rebounds with nearly [-]% shooting. They all made three three-pointers, Davis made three of four, Cousins ​​made three of seven!

This is a terrifying efficiency. When a team's big center and power forward have strong dominance around the basket, can shoot three-pointers, and can get the basketball in from various positions, the team's The space will be very wide open.The team's tactics will also have various options.

The Pelicans played well throughout the game. They made nearly [-]% of their three-pointers and shot very decisively.

Generally speaking, if you play resolutely and shoot decisively, you will have a good hit rate.

D'Antoni's teams generally have good three-pointers, why?It is decisive, the coach encourages every player to shoot decisively!

There is nothing in the world that cannot be solved by one three-pointer. If there is, then another one!
I'm not afraid that you can't vote, but I'm afraid you don't dare to vote!
If an open opportunity arises and you don't shoot a three-pointer, then it is estimated that you will probably be replaced in the next timeout!

The Pelicans made decisive three-pointers in this game.

In fact, in order for the Pelicans Twin Towers to exert their greatest power, this must be the case, which means that outside players must make decisive shots.

If the outside players always want to give the ball to the Twin Towers and hesitate when they have the opportunity, then the opposing players will be very targeted in defense, and the performance of the Twin Towers will be greatly restricted. Correspondingly, there will be no threat from the inside , the outside line will be better defended.

This is the principle that if you want the inside, you should first look outside, and if you want the outside, you should first look inside.

"On the last goal of the first quarter, the thick eyebrow dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line, made an emergency stop, and made a three-point shot at the buzzer. In front of whom did he make the shot?" the system asked.

Regarding the first quarter of the game, the time interval was a bit far away. He Pan thought for a long time and was still not sure, and finally said hesitantly: "Green?"

"Correct." Seeing that He Pan's answer was not very sure, the system gave the answer, which made He Pan feel relieved.

There are certain problems with this ball's defense of Chasing Dream Green.

At that time, there were less than two seconds left, and a power forward dribbled forward three or four steps away from the three-point line. At this time, we must give priority to defending the three-pointer!

Because there is not much time left, only a little over a second, if you defend him for a three-pointer and let him break through, he has no time to get to the basket.

Even if he makes a hasty shot near the free throw line, the shooting percentage is not very high, and if he scores, it will only be two points.

At that time, Green was defending one step inside the three-point line. Seeing Davis stopped the ball outside the three-point line and shot a three-pointer before stepping forward to block the shot, it was too late.

After all, Davis is much taller than Green and bounces much better.

Of course, the same sentence is easier said than done, and it is very difficult to quickly make a correct judgment in that short one or two seconds.

Even a Defensive Player of the Year like Green is bound to make mistakes at times.

"Green was called a technical offender in this game. May I ask why? What's your opinion?" the system asked again.

It seems that these two points are indeed more difficult than that one point!

Fortunately, He Pan is very serious about watching football.

"At that time, the Pelicans sent the ball out of bounds. Green pushed Cousins ​​behind his back and was called a technical foul. There is no problem with this penalty, and Green can only blame himself"

Green and Cousins ​​had been interacting with each other before, so the referee watched closely, and then Green pushed Cousins.At that time, it was off the ball, and this action was completely aimed at people, so it was no problem to call a technical foul.

Among the Warriors players, Green is the most passionate on the court.

However, sometimes things always have two sides, no passion, no passion, too much passion.

In some games, Green's fouls will occur a lot, which will greatly limit his playing time in these games.

It's just normal, and similar things often happen in the playoffs and finals.

Opponents know this and often take advantage of it consciously.

Green fouls a lot, partly because he has more supplementary defenses. He is often the team's last line of defense, so it is understandable that there are many fouls.

However, another reason is that his passion sometimes goes too far.

This is difficult to solve. It is difficult for people to be passionate and calm.

There is only one Leonard the robot after all.

The same problem is more obvious with Cousins.

After Green's technical foul, Cousins ​​was quickly called two offensive fouls, which is fine.

The first offensive foul was that he wanted to go inside and knocked down Curry in front of him.

As I said before, Green was called a technical foul just because he pushed Cousins, and that side must be dissatisfied.Then he called Green a foul, which was still on Cousins.At this time, if he is a smart person, Cousins ​​must pay more attention!
However, it is a pity that Cousins ​​​​does not have this calmness, nor does he have this brains.

There was nothing wrong with Cousins' second offensive foul. He knocked Curry down, and Curry didn't move at all, so he had only himself to blame.

Cousins ​​teased Green and allowed Green to get a technical foul and two general fouls, which was nice.

But the problem is, he can't control his emotions.

The so-called mindless and unhappy is Cousins.

Throughout the game, one highlight was Durant's block.

Durant scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 6 blocks in this game.

Among them, the data of six blocks is particularly impressive. You must know that the weakest item of the Warriors is the inside defense. It is very valuable to have six blocks.

The most exciting scene appeared in the second quarter. Durant lost his shoe during a defense, but then he sent two consecutive blocks to Tony Allen with one bare foot.

Durant probably said in his heart: I am not naive, but without shoes!

"The host gets two points. The current total score is 7 points, and the life value is 5 days." The system said.

He Pan browsed the news again.

There are two tidbits after the game, the first one is Cole.

The Pelicans led the Warriors 39-26 at the end of the first quarter.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said in a mid-season interview: "I will look at my phone and see if general manager Bob Myers has fired me."

The other is Clay.

Clay said in an interview after the game: "I made a bet with Zaza who dunks first, and it looks like I won."

Zaza is a typical floor player, his bounce is estimated to be as high as a matchbox, and his finishing ability at the basket is average, so dunks rarely appear, even if there are open spots.

And when Clay performed a dunk in China this summer, he was caught by the basket and fell to the ground.

This incident has also been ridiculed as a joke by the Warriors players for a long time.

It is estimated that Zaza was thinking in his heart at this time: Then I will go to Curry again!

Clay and Zaza are also a pair of tricks for the Warriors.

Today's Curry got 8 assists, surpassing Tim Hardaway, and ranked second in team history in assists.

另一个让何潘惊讶的是魔术队的武切维奇，整场比赛武切维奇22投17中，其中三分8中6，得到41分12篮板3助攻。

This is also the first 40+ of the season.

After watching the news and having lunch, He Pan thought about going out to play golf.

Unexpectedly, my mother made He Pan cut off all thoughts with one sentence: "You have been resting at home for a week, and you have missed a lot of homework. Finish the tasks I assigned you in these two days, so don't go out to play."
