Chapter 134: Trampling history and creating history! ( words updated per day, begging for monthly subscriptions!)
Qin Yue's organization and connection revitalized the Warriors' offense in the second half of the second quarter.

Even though he does the same thing every night, there are differences between passes.

This evening, Qin Yue did the best he could in terms of both the quality of his passes and the timing of his passes.

He led the entire Warriors team with terrifying focus and concentration, and got the feedback he wanted in the score.

At the end of the first half, the score was 59 to 49.

In the visiting team's locker room, he was receiving ice treatment from the team doctor.
Qin Yue, who scored 19 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 blocks for the Warriors in just the first half, only made you realize the pain on his face.
It turns out that he is also a normal person with flesh and blood.

Every Warriors player automatically turned on silent mode during the halftime break, as if they were afraid that their voices would disturb this absolute core player who was like a god in the first half.

Mike Malone, who wanted to give an impassioned speech during the halftime break, tore up his prepared speech.

Malone is well aware that there is such a star player.
No matter how emotional the speech was, it was not as good as him holding his head high and leading everyone back to the court.

The Seattle people had been beaten back by the Warriors led by Qin Yue in the first half. As long as his eyes were still as hot as fire, the entire Warriors would unite around him.

Now, Malone has gradually realized why the team's former head coach Mike Montgomery said that this Warriors team can win the championship even if they have a dog tied to the sidelines.

"This is just a test on our road to defending the title!"

At this moment, Ma Long clenched his fists and said this in his heart.

After the halftime break, the game continued.

Qin Yue and Artest's duo in the high position successfully created a gap for the latter to break through.

Seeing this, Artest did not hesitate, and pushed forward to the Supersonics basket like a harvester harvesting rice.

Bang, whoosh——!
Qin Yue felt that Artest in this game was simply an enhanced version of Draymond Green.

He can do everything that Green can do, and before God took away his offensive talent, Artest's ability to attack with the ball was definitely far superior to Green at any period.

If you insist that Qin Yue pick on Artest's guest power forward problem
Then perhaps it was only the passing of the ball that Qin Yue was not very satisfied with.

Although Artest would stand in a high position and direct traffic in every offensive round, the quality of his passes was hard to describe.

Fortunately, the Warriors' real passing initiator was Qin Yue.

Otherwise, the Warriors players that night would definitely call the police because they had to spend time adjusting every time they received the pass.

On the court, the Warriors took the lead in breaking the deadlock in the second half, while Garnett responded for the Supersonics.

With the help of Yao Ming's screen, Garnett leaned forward and sprinted after getting the ball, then cut in with the ball and made a layup.

This wasn't the first time Garnett used his small forward skills in this game.

In order to become a championship player, Garnett also used all his skills on this night.

After all, every Sonics player knows that
If they can win this game, they will have one foot in the finals.

In the history of the NBA, so far, only two teams have managed to come back from a 1-3 deficit in the conference finals.

Moreover, the Supersonics received good news shortly after the start of the third quarter.

Ray Allen, who had been silent for a whole half, finally got rid of that stinky rat Jack in the next offensive round and made a shot from outside the three-point line.

Ray Allen's three-pointer ignited the entire KeyArena.

The green wave at the scene instantly enveloped the entire stadium into a vast forest.

But the warriors led by Qin Yue were like the "California Flame". In the next offensive round, they suddenly started a fire and vowed to burn the forest to ashes.

While holding the ball on the left side, Qin Yue noticed Richardson who was moving towards him.

So, he passed the ball with his back to the basket and acted as a wall for the dunk king. Qin Yue instantly created a great three-point shot opportunity for Richardson.

Although Qin Yue did not use his big butt to hit Garnett and Ray Allen, who was responsible for defending Richardson, like Green in the future.

But his handsome and tall body turned into a wall of sighs, blocking the defensive players and Richardson.

This was a standard textbook block and pass.

Richardson raised his knife and slashed it down. Whoosh!
After scoring the goal, Richardson deliberately made a face at Ray Allen and made a "3" gesture to him.

This was Richardson's third three-pointer of the night.

It was obvious that he was using his own way to stimulate Ray Allen, who had only made one three-pointer so far.

in spite of
Ray Allen's expression did not change in the face of Richardson's childish provocation.

But when Ray Allen got rid of Jack's entanglement and got a chance to shoot again, the sound of his shot missing, which was heard by all the fans in the stadium, clearly told the world.
He, Ray Allen, has never been a humble and generous gentleman.

Qin Yue grabbed the rebound and quickly launched a fast break.

As Qin Yue broke through his physical limits again and again that night, the Sonics players no longer treated him as a "patient".

Therefore, the moment Qin Yue launched the fast break, the four Supersonics players except Yao Ming had all retreated back to the defense zone.

Seeing this, Qin Yue stopped strolling leisurely.

However, just when everyone thought that the Warriors would switch to a positional battle, Qin Yue suddenly passed the ball on the ground and connected with Davis who quickly followed up in the middle.

The first generation of Mr. Beard broke through the supersonic defense line whose attention was all on Qin Yue with almost no effort, and completed a gangster-like one-handed slam dunk against Percy.

On the bench, Carlisle gradually realized a fact:
——This Warriors team is much more of a team than he imagined.

Qin Yue will indeed occupy a lot of the ball possession for the Warriors.

But under his organization and coordination, the Warriors can always launch amazing attacks.

Especially this game.

When Qin Yue can predict the running position of each teammate according to their characteristics every time, he has a full map vision in his mind.
It's like an external brain that is constantly controlling the entire team.

The Warriors' offensive continues.

Posey received a pass from Yao Ming and his three-pointer from the corner went wide.

Qin Yue, who noticed in advance that Davis had already sneaked in for a fast break, turned around and lobbed the ball after protecting the rebound.

The San Francisco 49ers rookie quarterback threw a touchdown pass.

Immediately afterwards, the 49ers' bearded running back scored a touchdown.

ESPN, Pippen once again praised Qin Yue's passing and said: "If my teammates were the Messiah, I could easily score 30 points in every game with fast breaks."

A-Smith laughed and asked, "Will Phil Jackson allow you to play like this?"

Pippen, who was furious when he recalled Jackson's smear campaign against him in his autobiography, said: "Phil Jackson couldn't coach a player as talented as the Messiah. He only knew how to coach the uncoachable."

Unteachable was exactly how "Zen Master" Jackson evaluated Kobe when he left the Lakers in the summer of 04.

In addition, in the biography titled "The Last Season" published that year, he described Kobe as a hypocritical, narcissistic and selfish player.

and then?
Then after returning to the Lakers, Jackson changed his tune, "Kobe is a coachable player, and I believe he can do everything for the team's success."

In Pippen's view, if Jordan was arrogant and hypocritical, then Jackson was arrogant and hypocritical times ten.

Compared to Jordan, Pippen has always hated Phil Jackson more, who was willing to belittle all players in various biographies in order to enhance his own image.

KeyArena.

This golden wave came to an end only when Qin Yue made his 16th assist in the game.

The scoreboard showed 77 to 63.

The Warriors' powerful firepower forced Carlisle to request two timeouts in the third quarter.

And
As the Sonics reached the point where Yao Ming needed to rest again, Carlisle discovered.
He actually made the same mistake as Jeff Van Gundy.

He didn't dare let Yao Ming leave the court.

Because once Yao Ming leaves the court, the Supersonics will lose an important attacking point on the offensive end, and will also lose the protection brought by Yao Ming's physique on the defensive end.

But Carlisle is not Van Gundy after all. Therefore, after letting Yao Ming play one minute longer than usual, Carlisle replaced Yao Ming with Evans and pulled Ray Allen to the sidelines to give him a serious talk on tactics.

After the substitution, the Supersonics' offensive round.

"Quanli Te" followed Carlisle's arrangement and executed a perfect pick-and-roll for Ray Allen in the high post.

Ray Allen, who was in charge of holding the ball, could have taken the initiative to move closer to Garnett and completed a three-point shot while dribbling.

But what Garnett found difficult to understand was.
Ray Allen actually hesitated.

"'Ray-ray'!"

Seeing this, Garnett hurriedly shouted Ray Allen's nickname. Ray Allen, who didn't realize what he missed until he was awakened by "Full Force Special", also witnessed the scene that he will never forget when he shot quickly:

It was a big hand that made Ray Allen feel desperate. He mercilessly hit the basketball he shot to the front court like playing volleyball.

The owner of this big hand was Qin Yue.

Ray Allen's hesitation gave Qin Yue the opportunity to rotate and block Ray Allen's three-point shot.

And this block also changed the situation of the game.

Because then, Ray Allen, who was at a loss, made three weak shots.
"Punished" Qin Yue who had just blocked him.

Those were three backcourt rebounds that Qin Yue was able to grab without even moving.

As a historical pitcher, Ray Allen has long given people the impression that he is not strong enough because he lacks the killer instinct like Kobe and later Curry.

The "Northwest Big Three" was clearly missing a giant tonight.

This invisibly increased the physical energy consumption of Yao Ming and Garnett.

Especially Garnett.

Since he had to face Qin Yue all the time in the game, Garnett helped the Sonics to complete every attack.
You can totally understand that he is just squeezing the toothpaste.

This made it impossible for Garnett to put pressure on Qin Yue with all his strength as he did in previous games, and affected the quality of his offense and passing.

On the Warriors bench, watching Jack who had been gritting his teeth and pestering Ray Allen in this game, Mike Malone once again felt the terrifying strength of this defending champion team.

There is no doubt that Jack's starting appearance brought a series of chain reactions to the game.

After three quarters of the game, Jack only had 6 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.

But this little guy in the Warriors lineup deeply affected the course of the game.

He used his unrelenting death coil to make Ray Allen lose his aim, which in turn affected the physical consumption of Garnett and Yao Ming.
In a sense, as one gains while the other loses, Jack is the fuse that helps Qin Yue enter the super god state little by little.

Before the start of the final quarter, Carlisle was faced with a dilemma.

On the scoreboard, since the Warriors had established a 19-point lead, Carlisle was not sure whether to continue sending Yao Ming to the court.

Carlisle knew very well that if the Sonics relied on Yao Ming's two-point shots to close the 19-point deficit, only God knew how long it would take for them to make up for it.

But if Yao Ming was not sent to play, Carlisle would feel very regretful if he chose to give up just because he was 19 points behind.

After all, when Yao Ming is on the court, the Sonics' outside line will definitely get a certain amount of open space.

Carlisle was troubled by this.

Instead, Garnett took the initiative to suggest: "Since we are behind now, why don't we stay on the court."

Garnett's meaning is simple and clear.

Since it has come to this, we might as well take a chance. If it doesn't work, we can just replace all the main players at that time.

Seeing this, Carlisle, who thought Garnett's words made sense, decisively implemented Garnett's suggestion.

At the beginning of the final quarter, the Supersonics used their bullhorn tactics.

After adapting in the first three games, the Warriors players are no longer as afraid of the Sonics' strong offense as they were in the first game.

Because of this tactic, when Yao Ming or Garnett executes a shot from a high position, the Supersonics will definitely not be able to rush for the frontcourt rebounds like they usually do, so even if they are caught off guard by the opponent, the Warriors can bet that the Supersonics will not be able to make the shot themselves.

And
Since the bull horn tactics require the firepower provided by the guards on the court to launch more advanced changes, the bull horn changes of the Supersonics are destined to be limited when Ray Allen was not online tonight.

Just like Li Nan shouted "bull horns, diamonds" throughout the game, the Chinese men's basketball team could not execute a few decent high-level changes.

No matter how sophisticated the tactics are, they still need to consider the players' own abilities and on-the-spot conditions.

The Supersonics are definitely the team in the league today that is most suitable for the bull horn tactics.

But Ray Allen's on-the-spot condition held back the Seattle "Horns".

Qin Yue returned to the court after resting on the sidelines for four minutes.

On the court, the Warriors' offensive round.

Qin Yue, who was in a high-low position with Artest, quickly passed the ball after receiving the opponent's lob pass, and assisted Richardson, who was becoming more and more accurate in the second half, to hit a mid-range shot.

This was Qin Yue's 20th assist in the game that night.

Qin Yue only showed his fangs in the first quarter, and was replaced by Ma Long again in the final quarter. He only scored 5 points in the entire second half.

However.
However, with his help, the Warriors regained their powerful firepower.

The final score was 120 to 99.

The Golden State Warriors captured KeyArena and successfully regained home-court advantage in this series.

秦岳本场总计砍下24分21篮板20助攻4封盖1抢断。

This is the first time in NBA playoff history that a player has scored 20 points, rebounds and assists in a single game.

During the battle with injuries, Qin Yue did not rely on his talent as usual, but instead used his observation, his prediction, and his control of the overall situation.
He played a horrific career masterpiece.

After the game, Rick Carlisle smiled bitterly and said, "He is definitely the most versatile player I have ever seen in NBA history. He is better than his predecessors and has set an example for his successors."

Garnett's comments were full of bitterness: "He can attack you from anywhere outside the three-point line, and he can also use his size to crush your defense at any time in the low post.

And you have to be on guard against his unpredictable passes at all times. I don't know how I can limit him. I can only pray to God that he doesn't come out like this every night."

At the press conference, Mike Malone proudly boasted to the world: "He is the best in the world! It is my honor to coach him. It is also a gift from God to me."

After a pause, Malone added: "Coach Mike Montgomery is right. When you have a Messiah in your lineup, you as a head coach don't have to do anything because victory usually comes automatically two hours later."

"I told you guys he's a two-time Defensive Player of the Year," said Artest, the Warriors' second-best player in the game, who had 19 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

As long as he's on the court, we don't have to worry about whether the other four players' size can match the opponent.

We just have to turn it over to him defensively and trust him, and he’ll lead us to win games.”

The Warriors successfully tied the score of this Western Conference Finals at 2-2 in Seattle.

Next, the decisive battle of this round of the Western Conference Finals will return to Oracle Arena.

Moreover, the Warriors will also welcome Mike Dunleavy back from suspension at home.

From standing on the edge of the cliff after the third war to returning to heaven after the fourth war.

Qin Yue, who has been playing with injuries since the Western Conference semifinals this year, has quietly given the Warriors' road to defending the title this year a legendary color.

However, I want this legendary journey to be remembered forever.
The Warriors must stand at the final peak.

after all
Many years in the future, no one will remember the mere runner-up in the Western Conference.

"With Messiah's incredible '20+20+20', the Golden State Warriors flattened KeyArena on the road.

Now with the series tied at 2-2, the Warriors, who have regained their home-court advantage, have successfully taken the initiative in this year's Western Conference Finals.

In an interview after the game, Messiah said that he just did everything he could in the game and he hoped that people could give more praise to his teammates.

'You know, I always think we are a super team. Our personnel configuration, the overall state of the team and the always high morale make me firmly believe that we are still the most outstanding team in the league this year. '-ESPN post-game review
