Chapter 631 Hero Is Human Too

"Don't be too humble, I don't think you can lose to anyone in your fixed-point 3-pointers. Back then, even Michael trusted you and gave you the chance to make key shots!" Barkley said.

Cole shook his head with a smile, noncommittal.

The Warriors opened up a lot of space when attacking. The reason is that their two backcourt players, Curry and Thompson, are both shooting-oriented players, so it is not necessary for their teammates to open up space for themselves.Offensively, they screen more off the ball, creating space for the two marksmen to shoot.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball, and after the pick-and-roll, he assigned it to Ying Xiong, who moved on the right wing.

Ying Xiong received the ball and threatened three times, and dribbled one step to make a move-but no!
Klay Thompson grabbed the rebound and handed it to Curry to advance.

Curry dribbled the ball, used the pick-and-roll behind, to get rid of Jeremy Lin in advance, broke into the inside and gave it to David Lee.

David Lee made a basket shot!

The Warriors played the defending champion 5:2 in the opening game, giving the home team a blow.

"Steven's excellence lies in that he is not a pure shooter. His ball handling is also a must in the league. The ball is too good, and he has good passing vision and skills." Steve Kerr praised.

"You fellow pitchers are sympathetic to each other!" Barkley teased with a smile.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball and gave it to Ying Xiong on the left wing.

Facing Iguodala's defense, Ying Xiong took a tentative step, lowered his waist and took the ball to the line to break through. During the march, Crossover pulled the ball to the left, stuck in his position and walked to the inside.

As the No. [-] pick, Bogut is naturally not outstanding among those talented No. [-] picks, but he has nothing to do with the title of "parallel import No. [-] pick".His offense is indeed not good, but his defense can be called a big gate.Whether it's protecting the frame, topping people at the basket, or even defensive positions, he is a leader among the league's centers.Because David Lee's defense is average, his presence has brought the team's inside defense to a higher level.

Ying Xiong faced Bogut for a layup and was blocked by the opponent!
"Andrew blocked the response, beautiful defense!" Barkley shouted.

Ying Xiong grabbed the ball and made a strong move again, which caused a thug foul by David Lee who was helping to defend.

"David's defense is not as cunning as Andrew's! There's no need to hit the ball, just raise your hand high and take off vertically!" Steve Kerr said.

Ying Xiong walked to the free throw line and made one of two free throws.

In the first half of the first quarter, the state of the Raptors was not good. I don’t know if it was affected by the All-Star Weekend. The starting players were a little out of shape. Even the team’s core Yingxiong didn’t feel good. He only made 5 of 1 shots. ball.

The Raptors players were in poor condition, while the visiting Warriors were in good condition, slowly leading the score to 6 points.

"If Toronto can't adjust its state next, Golden State really has a good chance in this game!" Barkley said.

Raptors 2nd Team vs. Golden State Warriors 2nd Team with Steve Blake, Draymond Green, Marreese Speights, Jordan Crawford and Harrison Barnes, no Taking too much advantage.The Warriors' 2nd team defended well and played well on offense.

In this way, at the end of the first quarter, the Raptors trailed their opponents by 5 points, and they could not narrow the score difference in the first few minutes of the second quarter.

When Ying Xiong returned to the court, the Raptors had fallen behind by 8 points. In the past two months, such situations did not happen often.

"At this time, it depends on when Toronto will get back to the state, otherwise the score will reach double digits, and the game will be difficult to play!" Steve Kerr said.

"It also depends on when to adjust the state. He is the core of Toronto and the MVP of the league!" Barkley said.

Steve Kerr nodded in agreement.

Iguodala seemed to be specially prepared for Ying Xiong. As soon as Ying Xiong came on the court, he was immediately sent on the court by head coach Mark Jackson.His defense against Xiong in the first quarter was quite successful. Not only did he prevent the opponent from making only 5 of 1 shots, but he rarely made 2 turnovers.

Jeremy Lin slowly dribbled the ball over and gave it to Ying Xiong at the top of the arc.

Ying Xiong faced Iguodala and picked and rolled with Amir Johnson.

The Warriors did not dare to let David Lee face Yingxiong directly, so they adopted a defensive method of delaying the return.

Ying Xiong grasped that David Lee's footsteps were not quick enough, and cut in with a change of direction.

David Lee had no time to defend, and in a hurry, he also blocked his teammate Iguodala.In this way, Ying Xiong drove straight in and faced Bogut.

Ying Xiong rushed to the basket with the ball, and Bogut was waiting for him on the edge of the penalty area.Seeing this, he braked and made an emergency stop jumper-no!But he had a rebound, and he rushed forward, made a throw, passed the opponent's block, and hit the rebound into the frame!
"Ying's hand feeling is not good today. I don't know when he can get it back. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to attack by breakthrough!" Steve Kerr said.

Here Klay Thompson hit a 3-pointer!
"Klay is really easy to use. As a pitcher, he is stable on the outside, and what's more, his defense is also very good!" Steve Kerr made no secret of his appreciation for Klay Thompson.

"Well, if Clay is trained as a 3D player, he has the opportunity to become a top 3D player. It's just that this is a bit too wasteful, and he can do more!" Barkley said.

Here, Jeremy Lin received a second pass from Ying Xiong, and he responded with a 3-pointer.

In the following time, because the head star Yingxiong still couldn't find the touch, and the opponent's 3-pointer was very accurate, the Raptors still failed to get the score back.

At the end of the half, the Raptors trailed their opponents by 6 points.

Ying Xiong performed poorly in the first half, and some fans even complained that he was still thinking about the All-Star weekend and not in this game.Of course, most fans still understand Ying Xiong. Their Hero is a human being, and there will be times when his performance is not good. There is no need to deny his previous epic personal performance because of a sluggish performance in a regular season.What's more, the game is not over yet, in the second half, Hero may come back.

The third quarter of the game started.

Curry came over with a dribble, picked and rolled with Bogut at the top of the arc, faced the delayed Valanciunas, and threw away the opponent with a few fancy dribbles. Jeremy Lin hadn't defended in place, and directly scored 3 points Shot - hit!
Curry's 3-pointer widened the point difference to 9 points!
"Stephen's ability to shoot 3-pointers directly with the ball is the nightmare of all big centers in the NBA!" Steve Kerr said.

"Alas—the times are really changing slowly. In our era, which point guard would directly shoot a 3-point pick-and-roll!" Barkley said with a wry smile and shook his head.

"The rules are changing. If players don't adapt to the rules, they will be eliminated!" Steve Kerr said with a smile.

"That's right!" Barkley said.
