Chapter 142 Walker Curry vs Biao
For the last attack before halftime, the Bobcats had the ball.

As soon as Chen Xiao touched the ball with his right hand, he saw David Lee, who was originally at the free throw line, had rushed towards him with all his teeth and claws.

No, Brother Li, are you not afraid of my teammates?Chen Xiao had already caught a glimpse of Mullens in the vacant seat.

Well, before the ball was warmed up in his hand, Chen Xiao hooked it with his right hand and passed the ball to Mullens near the top of the arc without stopping.

Mullens, who made 2 of 1 three-pointers in the first quarter, tried once in the second quarter, but missed, and is currently 3 of 1.

I saw Mullens still in a calm posture, catching the ball, leaping up, and making a three-pointer.From the catch to the shot, all in one go.

Chen Xiao looked at this appearance, and Mullens was about to increase his three-point shooting percentage to 5.

But offensive rebounds still have to be fought for. Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, maybe you will hit the edge of the basket.

Chen Xiao turned around, pulled with one hand, and stepped with his left foot, just about to get Ai Zeli, who was occupying a position closer to the basket, behind him.

As a result, the visitor from outside the three-point line did not touch the basket, but only made the net flutter.It was Thompson who came back from the basket and picked up the ball.

Chen Xiao, who was hopeless in the fight, had no choice but to turn his head back to defend. Mu Zi, your shot seems to be steady. Exhibition to pick off the board.

But there is no time to think about it, turning around and returning to defense quickly is the most important thing.

All the Bobcats fans stared wide-eyed. Can Mullens only touch the net?David Li Yemei met you.

Just as he was about to withdraw his shocked expression, the next moment, the Bobcats fans still couldn't return to their normal expressions.

After Thompson got the ball at the basket, he dribbled a step to adjust his position, picked up the ball with his right hand and made a four-point pass.

The basketball crossed the court and went straight to David Lee, who had already taken the lead in the paint.

And there is only half a body gap between David Lee and Mullens, but this pass is just right.

Mullens, who was behind, swung his hand and tried to make up for it by intercepting in the air, but it was useless. David Lee, who successfully received the ball, changed hands after receiving the ball and completed a layup with his left hand.

The Bobcats fans still looked shocked, and their minds were a little confused.

No, isn't Klay Thompson just a "white" pitcher? Three-pointers are indeed accurate, but how can he still pass the ball like this?

"No!! Byron?! Well, a beautiful full-court pass. The Warriors tied the score before halftime." The commentary at the Spectrum Center Arena shouted, trying to use sound waves to knock down the mid-air Passing the ball allows Mullens, who is behind, to complete the interception, but in the end he can reluctantly admit that this is a good shot.

Before the end of the half, Chen Xiao had already completed another inside finish to help the Bobcats lead the score 64:62, but Mullens finally made a mistake and the Warriors evened the game.

At halftime, the Bobcats and Warriors tied at 64.

Looking at Muzi, who was a little downcast, Chen Xiao was also a little dumbfounded. How could an NBA player not hit the basket in the middle of the field, and he didn't block the running line with David Lee in the end.

This two-way non-stick and the accurate long pass completed by Thompson still caused a big blow to the morale of the Bobcats.

In the half, Mullens scored 7 of 2 and was successfully relegated to Mugui.

Patting Muzi on the shoulder, Chen Xiaoyu told Muzi earnestly: "It's really not good, just find a factory to work." If this continues, Muzi will not talk about a two-year contract, maybe after two months there will be no job for you up.

"Byron, now your shooting percentage is 28.5%. If you still hit this percentage in the third quarter, I will replace you." S said.

After all, the purpose of going to Mullens is to maintain a certain outside threat so as to open up space, but there is no threat in 4 of 1 shots. In the end, David Lee almost threw the ball on the face, and the result was two nos. stick it out.

Dunlap also has no one in his hands. If he chooses to trust Mu Gui again, it's really impossible for Biyombo to concentrate on defense.Maybe Chen Xiao can still cooperate with him in two internal passes.Last time, the hook pass and the alley-oop dunk made a top ten shot.

"Looking better, we still tied the game in the second quarter. Although there is a factor of the Warriors feeling cold, we are not allowed." Chen Xiaolang said when he was about to play, "Right, look at Kemba 4-for-1 in the second quarter, and that's where we can tie the game, keep going in the second half, guys."

Seeing that Mullens received the coach's ultimatum, Chen Xiao's speech did not add to the pressure on him. He ridiculed the "volute" demeanor of Walker, who repeatedly cast iron and was very energetic. Chen Xiao and his teammates went into battle again.

"Fez, you did a good job in the second quarter, keep it up." Before the Warriors played, Mark Jackson patted Ezeli on the shoulder and encouraged him.

In the second quarter, although Ezeli didn't do a good job defending against Chen Xiao, he didn't pay any more fouls. He still committed 2 fouls, so there is still a lot of room for trial and error in the 2nd quarter of the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, both teams appeared in the starting lineup.

David Lee caught the ball inside the three-point line and completed two long points. This ball is not to blame for Muzi. After all, David Lee and Curry pick and roll. It is normal for two players with obvious shooting threats to lose sight of one another.In terms of splitting the pot, Walker also has half.

The Bobcats had the ball, and Chen Xiao resolutely entered the inside line. He didn't beat Aizeli down in the second quarter, and continued to exert strength in this quarter.

Hehe, this time Ai Zeli changed his mind and hung his whole body on Chen Xiao halfway forward. From the third perspective, it looked like a person sitting with Chen Xiao's left leg spread apart.

The inside line desperately prevented the important position from receiving the ball, and Barnes on the outside also lashed out, clinging to Middleton to prevent him from lobbing the ball inside.

Middleton, who had a mediocre breakthrough and lacked absolute explosive power, did not have the ability to directly break the press, so he turned the ball back to Walker, who was two steps away from the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Chen Xiao, who was unable to catch the ball for the time being, only felt his leg loosen. The big black man who weighed more than 2 kilograms finally broke away from the state of "koala bear". He climbed down from Chen Xiao's 2 meter tree, be vigilant.

Walker, who received the ball, saw that Curry was still on the three-point line and did not dare to shoot because he was hard in the last quarter, or that he was able to hit the iron continuously because of the daring.

Walker took half a step forward, pulled it up and shot.

As expected of a "volute", Chen Xiao swiped his right arm, and caught Ai Zeli, who was still sideways, behind him, waiting for the offensive rebound to fly.

With a crisp "swish", the basketball obediently fell into the basket net and hit the ground with a "thud-thud".

good!energetic.Seeing the successful hit of the Flying Immortal, Chen Xiao squeezed away Ai Zeli who had been pushing left and right behind him, and ran back, passing by Walker who stretched out his palm to celebrate: "Strike, strike."

This is Walker, Chen Xiao understands him, even 10 blacksmiths in front dared to take a shot, quite a volute demeanor.

The next ball was Walker, and this time it was not a catch and shoot. Facing Curry who was focused on defense, the crossover threw off Curry's center of gravity, walked back to collect the ball, and shot a jumper from outside the three-point line.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Kemba~Walker! Two consecutive three-pointers, Kemba told Curry in front of him with practical actions that my three-pointers are just as deadly!" yelled.

Walker scored two three-pointers in a row, and Curry showed no sign of weakness here.

David Lee was received from the bottom line on the left, and he raised the ball to feint. Walker in front of him was immediately pressed the take-off button, shaking the defender away, retreating to the left on the spot, and raised his hand to make a steady three-pointer.

Chen Xiao, who had taken a lot of possessions in the first two quarters, reduced his offensive possessions in the third quarter. Walker, who was hot, and Curry, who was in the same state, formed a confrontation.The two turned the field into a heads-up field between the two of them. I attack and you defend, and you defend and I attack.

Since Walker scored two three-pointers, Curry was not relentless in front of the folks. He just crossed the center line and faced Walker's close defense. blocked in the wrong direction.

At this time, Chen Xiao, who was waiting at the free throw line for Ezeli to serve, saw the distance between the two people in completely different directions. Curry used the change of rhythm to successfully break through the defender.

Originally, Chen Xiao might be able to go up to help defend and interfere with Curry's shooting rhythm.It turned out that Ai Zeli was running from the outside line, and Chen Xiao was interrupted by the passing big black man, and his pace of going up was half a beat slower. After raising his hand, Curry had already completed the shot.

The only disturbance to Curry may be that a mountain is flying towards him visually, and during the defense process, the obvious distance makes Chen Xiao, who consciously defends hopeless, only feel that he has become a VIP audience for this shot.

"Shua", Curry hit the second three-pointer against Walker's defense.The two are currently tied 2-2 in the heads-up session.

Chen Xiao, who didn't succeed in defense, but watched Curry's shooting from a close distance, silently compared Curry's shooting posture with the hard-handed shooting represented by Dan Zi, who he had been practicing and had already seen the tricks.

As far as the most intuitive shot is concerned, the difference between single-action and double-action is very obvious. Curry’s single-action shooting is extremely fast. It looks like he is pushing the ball while lifting it. The shooting point is not high but it is fast. .

After all, Chen Xiao is not the "Lama" Odom, so he can't be in a daze on the court, daydream for a while, and run to the front court.

Even if he doesn't get into the low post and ask for the ball, Chen Xiao still has work to do.

You can't let Walker work alone all the time, it's okay to do it alone, but no one really thinks that Walker and Curry's three-pointers are at the same level, and Walker is more likely to break through and attack the basket.

As a big center and the fulcrum of tactics, Chen Xiao has to cooperate with internal and external linkages to help reduce Walker's defensive pressure.

After coming to the frontcourt, Chen Xiao proposed to do a pick-and-roll for Walker, but Thompson, who didn't know where the direction of the pick-and-roll came from, delayed it in time, and Walker could only pull the ball and think again.

Seeing that a pick-and-roll failed, Chen Xiao immediately went to the free throw line and turned around Curry, and set up a pick-and-roll again on the other side. The two cooperated tacitly, and Walker chose another direction to break through at the same time.

Curry, who was trying to catch up, was blocked by a copper wall and iron wall.

Chen Xiao, who completed the pick-and-roll and had higher pursuits, also ran towards the basket. Maybe he just needed to grab an offensive rebound and make a layup.

However, Walker, who went straight to the inside, faced David Lee who was under the basket at this time, turned sideways in the air against the rear lever, and scored the ball with his left hand, which did not require too much contribution from Chen Xiao.

"Tough!" Seeing that the Bobcats are attacking like a wave and Walker is playing bravely, the Bobcats commentator shouted passionately, "Kemba Walker is very tough in this quarter. He chose to shoot a three-pointer against Curry. Facing the rim protector Walker at the basket And unafraid. Last year's No. 9 pick showed us his growth, and he's not just crossover!"

Walker is so competitive, it is impossible for Chen Xiao to just sit on the sidelines.

ball!It may be because Chen Xiao didn't take the initiative to get the ball in the low post this quarter, and the Warriors didn't arrange more people to harass him this time.

Chen Xiao copied the basketball with one hand, put the ball back and hit it with his back, "boom", "boom" two intense muscle collisions, stepped into the paint with one foot, and immediately turned around and joined the ball to face the basket. The overall displacement carried away Ai Zeli, whose feet were already weak after the fierce confrontation.

Grabbing the ball with one hand and making a hook, the basketball hit the board.

"Why is one man guarding me? Stephen? David? Where are you?" Chen Xiao, who finished the attack, spread his hands and asked with a puzzled face. Both Curry and Li are the favorites to come over and grab the ball.

Seeing Ai Zeli beside him with a face as black as carbon, looking displeased but unable to refute, Chen Xiao pretended and left.

"I will come to help defend in the next round." Brother Li came to Ai Zeli, took the ball from Ai Zeli's hand and served it from the baseline, "It's good to hold him, we are not at a disadvantage now, Stephen, Clay And I will take care of them on the offensive end." David Lee said with firmness and relief.

Ezeli nodded. This is not the first time that the game has been ravaged. Anyway, the teammates don't expect him to be able to defend Chen Xiao. Coach Jackson just asks him to do the necessary interference and it's over.

David Lee's self-confidence is not unreasonable. At the end of the third quarter, the Bobcat Warriors scored not bad in a single quarter and also scored 35 points.

After three quarters, the two teams tied at 99.
