Chapter 549 Watching the game with Black Widow 1
The game between the Warriors and the Knicks has begun.
The Knicks starting lineup is Anthony, Stoudemire, Felton, Shumpert, Barron, Rasheed - Wallace.
The Warriors' starting five are Curry, Butler, Chandler, Turkoglu and Tony Allen.
Due to Zhou Yang's absence, Old Nelson strengthened his defense just to be on the safe side and let Tony Allen start the game.
In the first half of the first quarter, Curry had a good touch. He faced Felton, called a screen, made two consecutive shots, and made 2 of 1 three-pointers.
Turkoglu also received a pass from Curry and made a three-pointer.
For the Knicks, Stoudemire and Anthony hit the basket frequently, and the efficiency is not bad.
The offensive skills of these two are too comprehensive. Without Zhou Yang's help in defense in the penalty area, the Warriors can't defend at all with Chandler alone.
Butler is tough and defensive, but his talent is not as good as Zhou Yang's, so the defensive effect is average.
More than 5 minutes into the first quarter, the score between the two sides was 14:12, and the Knicks led by 2 point.
……
Zhou Yang watched from the hotel, his palms were sweaty.
He found that watching the Warriors game as a spectator and not being able to play himself was not a good feeling.
While Zhou Yang was watching the game nervously, Scarlett opened the door and walked into Zhou Yang's room.
This is an almost open secret in the crew, the two stick together when nothing happens.
Seeing that Zhou Yang was concentrating on watching the game, Scarlett didn't bother him, so she came over obediently and sat beside Zhou Yang, like a kitten.
Zhou Yang put one hand on Scarlett's body and walked slowly, the nervousness was relieved a lot.
A woman is really a good thing, as long as it is attached to the body, a man will feel better.
"Brother Yang, do you think the Warriors can win today?"
Scarlett rested her head on Zhou Yang's lap, breathing a little short of breath.
"It must be able to win, I believe in Stephen's ability!" Zhou Yang said firmly, and at the same time squeezed his fingers a little harder, Scarlett let out a "beep".
"Necrotic you... I'm not a basketball, why are you pinching me..."
Scarlett scolded Zhou Yang, her face flushed.
……
The game continued, and in the second half of the first quarter, the Warriors' three-point shooting percentage began to decline, and Curry and Butler increased their mid-range shots.
Compared with the Knicks, the Warriors' mid-range ability is average.
The absence of Zhou Yang made the Warriors' offensive level lack an important part.
The expansion of the Knicks' defense also made the Warriors' three-pointers less threatening.
In addition, when Zhou Yang is on the court, he will direct his teammates on the court at any time, assist in defense, and plug in defensive loopholes.
Now that Zhou Yang is away, the Warriors' defense is not so strong.
However, the Warriors were not defeated, because although Zhou Yang was not there, Curry's offensive restraint increased significantly.
After he was double-teamed from beyond the three-point line, he quickly released the ball and gave his teammates more opportunities to play.
It's a pity that other Warriors players feel average, so the Warriors began to lag behind.
At the end of the first quarter, the two teams scored 31:26, with the Knicks leading by 5 points.
Curry scored 13 points in the first quarter, Turkoglu scored 8 points, while Anthony scored 12 points and Stoudemire scored 15 points. Both star strikers are fierce.
Old Nelson was very calm. He expected this situation, but the Warriors were not defeated and could hold on.
Curry played a full first quarter and had to rest for a while in the second quarter.
The Warriors put on a full bench lineup.
Seeing that the Warriors were behind in the score, Zhou Yang felt very irritable. He tore off Scarlett's fat times and started to work.
Scarlett couldn't take it anymore, her body was very cooperative, but she was still complaining: "The Warriors are behind in the score...you...you take me out...how angry..."
"Just take it out on you, aren't you happy?"
"no no……"
Scarlett found that Zhou Yang's performance today was very aggressive, he was treating himself like a basket.
The Warriors played very well off the bench. Thomas Jr.'s breakthroughs and points, as well as his shots, are of high quality.
However, because of his height disadvantage, the opponent's backup point guard Old Kidd also played very well.
The point difference between the two sides is like five or six points, seesawing back and forth.
Zhou Yang was fighting with Scarlett while watching the TV screen.
This feeling is really amazing.
And every time a Warriors player made a shot, Zhou Yang would slap her hard, yelling at Scarlett.
Needless to say, Zhou Yang's trick is quite useful. With the help of a mysterious power, the Warriors' substitute players become more courageous as they fight!
According to statistics, after Zhou Yang exerted his strength, the shooting percentage of the Warriors players was as high as 60%, which is simply the best booster.
After playing for more than 5 minutes in the second quarter, the difference between the two teams was reduced to 2 points. At 41:39, the Warriors fell behind.
Knicks coach D'Antoni didn't dare to be careless, so he quickly called a timeout and prepared to replace the main players.
The Knicks are ambitious this season, and want to take advantage of the disintegration of the Big Three, rush out of the East, and get involved in the championship.
D'Antoni can also be regarded as a powerful coach. His small ball tactics and running and bombing concepts have affected several teams.
Under the leadership of D'Antoni, the Suns played a combination of ornamental and practical basketball. In this parallel world, they defeated the Warriors, rushed out of the West, and finally won a championship.
However, with the rise of the Splash Brothers, the Suns quickly fell.
After dismantling the team, D'Antoni came to the Knicks, and his favorite general Stoudemire, plus Anthony, Felton and other generals, have every hope of rushing to the finals again!
After the timeout, both sides changed into the main lineup and made the final fight in the first half.
Zhou Yang's side is not over yet, but the rhythm is beginning to slow down.
Scarlett was a little dissatisfied, so she punched Zhou Yang and said angrily, "What are you dawdling about..."
"Don't make trouble, the Warriors are about to launch a counterattack..."
Zhou Yang's eyes were still on the game, but his hands were tightly grasped. Obviously, he was still very nervous.
He worried that the score would be drawn again.
Curry appeared on the stage. Judging from his expression, he was very confident and seemed to have grown a lot all of a sudden.
This is a stage that a star must go through.
If Zhou Yang and Curry are not separated, Curry will never grow up. This is a person's dependence psychology.
So this time Zhou Yang took the opportunity to leave, but also to help Curry grow rapidly and achieve a qualitative leap!
Curry imitated Zhou Yang and directed his teammates to stand on the field.
In fact, Curry's golf quotient is also very high, and he is very familiar with the Warriors' defensive system.
Although Zhou Yang usually directs and mobilizes teammates, when Curry doesn't understand, he will ask Zhou Yang questions, and Zhou Yang will answer patiently, never hiding it.
Knicks attack.
Felton dribbles across half court and hits a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire.
