I'm king in the basket

Chapter 612 Nightmare
"I have thought about many possibilities. This game may have such a process."

"But I never thought Goran Dragic would dominate the first half with Steph Curry."

The duel between Dragic and Curry went beyond imagination for halftime. In the end, Curry won. He led the Warriors to lead the Raptors by 7 points before the end of the first half.

That's partly down to his solid shooting skills.

Neither he nor Dragic can guard the other, but 3 points is 2 more than 1 points.

Although there was back and forth on the scene, Curry scored more points.

半场六记三分球，砍下22分4篮板6助攻，压制了德拉季奇的17分5篮板3助攻，他们的数据对比就像咖位对比一样。

The proportion of shots is about the same, but the data obtained are different, and there is also an obvious gap in the leading effect.

At this time, the Raptors' midfield lounge.

Li Xing lay there, Olina massaged carefully, and Xu Ke prepared drinks to replenish energy.

This scene made it difficult for others to look directly at it.

He also plays basketball, why is this guy so special?
"Andrea, please focus," Snyder said.

Bargnani complained: "Coach, I also want a female trainer!"

Snyder didn't stop his proposal at all, and continued: "We have two problems now. Stephen's outbreak is difficult to contain, but we can contain others."

"So, from now on, let Stephen play freely. The strength of the defensive end, the strength of the defense, and the pressure of off-ball confrontation cannot be reduced. It doesn't matter if he can maintain this performance until the end of the game."

Snyder opened the tactical board and said, "JO, you started the game instead of Andrea in the second half."

"Coach, why?"

Tonight's Bargnani is quite satisfactory, his performance is neither good nor bad.

"I need better defense."

Snyder's words are the imperial decree. People of Bargnani's level can ask questions, but they cannot violate them.

Zou Qi responded.

Snyder continued: "Listen, I don't need you to save energy, the third quarter, I need you to sweep the perimeter, help Luckey deal with those kites outside the shot, I need Luckey to be near the paint at all times. Guard the restricted area."

"Yes, I know."

Zou Qi's speed is his biggest characteristic.

Of course, his height and wingspan are also extremely rare for people of the yellow race, but more important than these are his pace, his rhythm, his agility, and the dexterity of his every move.

Aside from monsters like Li Xing, Zou Qi's height has the agility of a guard, his lateral movement, his sense of blocking shots, and his defensive pressure are all top-notch.

It can be said that he is Li Xing's perfect partner, but the offensive end is one DeRozan worse than Bargnani.

Even so, he is the first thing Snyder thinks of when it comes to dealing with opponents.

At his peak, Bargnani could use the offensive end to solve opponents, but injuries took away his peak, and he can no longer play the same game as before.

Therefore, Snyder also intends to train Zou Qi.

If he can keep up with the Warriors' rotation, he can keep up with any team's rotation, which is the fastest in the league.

"Also, Golan, I think you already know what to do, but I still want to tell you that this is the end of the one-on-one game, you can't beat Stephen Curry!"

Dragic looked constipated.

Mother, do I want to lose face?I can't beat Curry, but you don't have to be so direct, do you?
No one cared about the small grievances in the Slovenian's heart, and Snyder immediately looked at the others. He said: "Golden State is good at hitting the climax in the third quarter."

"Coincidentally, so do we."

"Only the stronger team can dominate the game at the point of the game that each other is used to. One thing, I am sure of it."

Snyder looked at the crowd and said loudly: "We are a better team than Golden State!"

"Yes!"

"let's go!"

The tactics were arranged, and the last chicken blood was played. Snyder did everything a coach should do, and the rest had to be left to the players.

No matter how good the coach is, he can only do off-field work. It is the players who implement the tactics that really decide the game.

Tactics are important, as is psychological adjustment.

Only a coach who is proficient in tactics and knows how to adjust the players' psychology is the real handsome talent.

At the beginning of the second half, Curry wanted to continue the three-pointer, but he didn't get a chance. When he took a screen and ran out of the opportunity, Zou Qi rushed forward.

So fast, even Curry didn't expect Zou Qi to come so fast.

Give him another chance, he will never let Zou Qi succeed, but now, he stands awkwardly, neither passing nor attacking.

"Stephen!"

"Think too much!"

The North Carolina Blackhawks wanted to have a hand-off with Curry. Middleton disrupted the cooperation between the two, and his hand knocked out Curry's pass.

"fortunately!"

Thompson walked by and picked up the ball.

DeRozan opened his hands, all his thoughts were focused on Thompson.

Now Thompson is no longer in the state of the first quarter, and he dare not force a shot under this kind of defense.

DeRozan's defensive pressure on Thompson is terrible.

If Li Xing was familiar with DeRozan in his previous life, he would be unfamiliar with this DeRozan, because that DeRozan did not have such a good defense.

More than half of this is due to Tony Allen.

By Tony Allen's side, DeRozan was instructed and trained by him, and he developed excellent defensive steps and defensive habits. Years of playing games made him an excellent defender.

This is DeRozan's change.

Not only has he become a strong point who can solve problems with the ball, but also a reassuring defender.

If only I didn't suffer from depression.

"What a terrible defensive pressure!"

"What's wrong with Toronto? Their defense now feels like they didn't play seriously in the first half, or that they were dozing off in the first half."

24 seconds ran out, and the Warriors didn't find a chance to make a call.

Compared with the Warriors' constipation on the offensive end, looking back, the Raptors' simple and crisp offense formed a stark contrast.

The Raptors are improving their defensive strength, and the Warriors are also improving, but their defensive strength is nothing more than that.

Pick-and-rolls, screens, everybody's doing it.

Since the five players on the field all have three-point threats, the space is extremely wide, and Dragic cuts in when he sees the opportunity.

At the same time, Li Xing accompanied DeRozan in a high position to do a swift dragon interlude.

After the screen, Li Xing pulled out the three-point line, and DeRozan cut in.

Dragic sees two opportunities, and finally targets DeRozan, who throws the ball.

pterosaur ascended to heaven,

Cheers!

The audience's voice was like thunder, DeRozan grabbed the ball, slammed it hard towards the basket, and completed an alley-oop dunk that was enough to enter the top ten shots of the day.

Dragic patted his head excitedly: "Man, I'm so fucking envious of your physical fitness!"

DeRozan also has a strange feeling that hasn't appeared in a long time.

His hands were trembling, his heart was beating faster, and his breathing was rapid. It was a surge of adrenaline, a feeling he hadn't seen for a long time, and he knew that that feeling was called excitement.

When was the last time you felt excited?
On the fast break?
Maybe, in the fast break, DeRozan will generate a little excitement, but after the fast break, that feeling disappears.

He has not been like this for a long time. After completing a wonderful goal, he felt the excitement of wanting to growl.

He wants to win the game, he wants to please the crowd, he wants to go home with a good mood, and he wants to go back and see if Sol has learned to pee in the bathroom.

He wants to do many things.

All of a sudden, that's all he thought about.

"It's still an impenetrable defense!"

"too frightening!"

"Golden State's only solution now is to let Steph attack with the ball!"

"He called the pick-and-roll and Luckey was on him!"

"It's a misplacement!"

Angus and Stoudemire were occasionally taken aback, like country folks entering town.

What is even more surprising is that Curry continuously used the signboard to change directions behind him, but Li Xing was like a tumbler, with a stable center of gravity that made people feel scary.

If it were another big man who was swayed by Curry like this, he would have fallen to the ground.

But this person has not been shaken from the beginning to the end.

Don't lie about losing your center of gravity, Curry moved back and forth in front of him for ten seconds, and he didn't eat a single shake.

Many people describe a good defender like to say that his center of gravity is as stable as the roots of an old tree. That is an adjective, but for Li Xing, this sentence is like describing his defense.

His defense is like this, never eating and shaking.

Curry panicked. When the attack time was about to run out, he could only take the risk of taking a shot in front of Li Xing.

The results of it?
The 250 cm long arm slapped in front of him, and the ball was like an egg in front of Li Xing's palm, and was flicked down by his fingers just after it flew up.

Curry watched as Li Xing slapped him off, then grabbed the ball in front of him, and then, it was the Raptors' counterattack.

"how can that be?"

Curry also witnessed Li Xing's peak, but he never played against Li Xing in the playoffs.

He is in the West, and if he wants to fight Li Xing, he can only make it to the finals. He can't make it to the finals.

He never forced Li Xing to go all out, and he never knew how terrifying the person who made James and Durant curse in their dreams.

When DeRozan completed the counterattack and the point difference reached 4 points, Cole called a timeout.

Curry walked off the court with blank eyes.

Regardless of the final outcome of this game, when he sleeps tonight, he will have the same nightmare as James, Durant and others.

In the dream, Li Xing would still block his extreme three-pointer head-on, grab the rebound in front of him, and still put on a cold face, making him feel that the shot just now was a joke.
