Chapter 762 It's All About the Knights

On the 24th, the King flew to Oakland to challenge the Warriors.

The Warriors in the new season only have a record of 13 wins and 7 losses. Although they rank third in the West, they are far behind the Kings and Spurs. There have been rumors of trading Clay and Green for draft picks and rebuilding, because the next favorite The rookie has Zion.

Durant signed a 1+1 contract in the off-season. If there is no breakthrough this season, he will definitely leave next season.

Arriving at the Oracle Center at four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yang arranged warm-up training as usual, and then went to be interviewed by reporters.

After several official questions and answers, a reporter from the "Oakland Sentinel" suddenly asked: "Do you think the Warriors are worth sending Clay and Green away to exchange high draft picks and compete for Zion? I heard that Zion is a tough guy. A Brown-level rookie…”

Zion is so popular, he has already attracted many NBA players to watch his games in high school, especially the game against "Three Goals". that feeling.

Since joining Duke, Zion has been on the Duke and NCAA platform, and under the promotion of Nike, further fires have been extinguished, such as forcibly grabbing the ball, pinching the basketball, Obama attending the game, and the $[-] game. side fare…

It can be said that many fans are concerned about which team can get Zion, and it is normal for the Warriors to be rumored about it.

"My assessment is..."

Su Yang subconsciously wanted to say that he was not as good as Yuan Shen, but he immediately changed his words, "My evaluation is that Zion is not as good as LeBron or Durant. He is just an ordinary and powerful rookie. Of course, I hope Zion proves me wrong. I don't hate him, nor do I want to criticize him, I just think the media's propaganda is too crazy, and many players have been affected, such as OJ Mayo..."

Mayo was boasted that he had 'Iverson's speed + Wade's breakthrough', which finally caused Mayo to suffer a lot of bad reviews.

Of course, Su Yang also hopes that the Warriors will rebuild.

Just Clay and Green, going to a mid-range team will directly promote that team to the top, which is difficult.

After the interview, the game started.

Dun Luo started for the Kings, while the Warriors played with Dun Luo. Durant and Green passed the ball crazily for assists. Clay scored 12 points in the first quarter. Fortunately, Curry came to Golden State and felt pretty good. 9 points and 3 assists in the first quarter, helping the Kings lead by 1 point.

The second quarter started immediately.

Su Yang adjusted his strategy, arranged for Bridges to defend Clay, and successfully brought Clay back to normal mode, but Durant, who only scored two points in the first quarter, began to excel. Tatum and Covington failed. Hold on, Brother Antetokounmpo couldn't stop it after switching defenses.

It's okay to be unstoppable, and it was matched with four fouls, allowing Durant to get 8 free throws, double-teaming and allowing Dulat to assist.

Fortunately, for the Kings, Curry continued his fiery touch in the first quarter, and he was also a big kill. He scored 11 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, and beat Durant with 16 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, helping the Kings lead the Warriors at halftime. 4 points, let the fans enjoy it.

During the halftime break, the fans discussed the match between the two teams.

Someone suggested that Durant made 7 of 4 shots and scored 16 points. Although he scored [-] points with free throws, they were all difficult goals and the efficiency was low. They did not help the Warriors much. He occasionally hit two points in regular time. It's okay, it's best to save your physical strength for the critical moment.

Some people pointed out that although Durant had 3 assists, they were all double-teamed and unable to handle the pass. Too many singles hurt the team. Clay, who played well in the first quarter, could only be reduced to a VVVIP-level audience. Durant must change his style of play.

Some people suggested that Durant should be more responsible for support, which would allow him to better drive his teammates through his own threats on the basis of a small number of running positions, but that would take away part of Green's work and require coaches such as Cole to work harder. Well organized.

Amid all the discussions, the second half of the game started.

The Warriors attacked first, Durant grabbed the ball in the elbow area to attract attention, and Clay moved to catch the ball and scored a three-pointer against Dun Luo's almost close defense.Su Yang looked at the situation and realized that Dun Luo couldn't guard against Clay, but it was not easy to replace Dun Luo immediately.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to change it with 6 minutes left.

I never thought that Clay went crazy directly, probably because he only scored two points in the second quarter. Dunlow, arrange for Bridges to defend Clay.

When Dun Luo left the field, his face was full of embarrassment.

But the effect of the substitution was immediate, and Clay was directly held down.

Of course, Antetokounmpo and others assisted in preventing delays, and provided great help to Bridges, buying him a lot of catching up time.

It's a pity that the situation is the same as before. After Clay was restricted, Durant stood up again, and the Kings still couldn't guard against it.

In addition to BOX1 and other extreme defensive strategies, Su Yang has tried other defensive strategies, but Durant sighed helplessly.

In the last 3.8 seconds of the game, with Durant turning over and hitting a jumper, the Warriors led the Kings 119 to 118.

Su Yang asked for a timeout, deliberately replaced the full starting lineup including Dun Luo, and instead arranged tactics: "This time we will not play BOX tactics, and we will directly set up 5OUT, with Giannis and Cousins ​​at the top of the arc, and 45 on the right. Standing at Dunloe, Curry at the bottom corner on the right side, Tatum is responsible for serving out of bounds, Curry goes around the screen to catch the ball is the first plan, if he does not receive the ball, the second plan is to get together to the right, let Giannis on the left One-on-one from the side waist position, the third plan is for Dun Luo to use the screen to run back and catch the ball..."

Su Yang had seriously thought about arranging Dun Luo to be responsible for the third-chance lore, intending to boost Dun Luo's confidence.

During the conversation, the whistle sounded at the end of the pause.

The game continued, and the king kicked off from the left sideline of the frontcourt.

The referee blew his whistle to time the clock, and the Oracle Center boos burst.

Dun Luo first moved down from the 45-degree three-point line on the right, pretending to be a rung screen, and was about to help Curry cross the paint, but Curry only took one step, stopped suddenly and ran back to the top of the arc. With the help of Cousins ​​and Antetokounmpo, he moved to the 45-degree three-point line on the right in a wide range. Unfortunately, the Warriors switched defenses infinitely. Green blocked Curry at the first time without many opportunities.

In the blink of an eye, Curry went straight to the left corner, and Antetokounmpo took the opportunity to rush to the left waist to execute the second plan.

However, Durant was chasing after the defense and interfering around the front. Tatum was not very good at passing the ball, and Antetokounmpo was not very good at receiving the ball.

But at the same time, Cousins ​​​​started down to cover, Dun Luo got rid of Clay and rushed to the top of the arc, getting a super wide open.

Tatum immediately passed the ball when he saw this, and Dun Luo received the ball and made a gesture to pass it to Cousins, who was waiting for the opportunity to rush to the basket, and then jumped up and made a three-pointer.

The basketball slammed into the net, the Kings overtook 121 to 119, and the game ended with 1.4 seconds left, but the Warriors did not pause, and the backcourt grabbed the serve. Durant made a super long three-pointer, and could only accept the loss. The audience scored 49 points 13 rebounds and 7 assists.

For the Kings, Curry scored 37 points.

Ordinarily, Curry should be interviewed after the game, but after discussing with Curry, Su Yang and Curry arranged for Deng Luo, who hit the quasi-lore, to be interviewed together, and Deng Luo choked up and said: "Thank you Coach Su Yang, thank you Curry and all your teammates , I did a poor job on defense, you guys have always trusted me, even let me take the game-winning shot, I will always remember this moment, I love you guys."

The interview was soon reported.

The fans discussed it enthusiastically, and the comment with [-] likes wrote: "After this game, is there any team that believes that they can beat the Kings? They can let a player who lost a lot of points be responsible for the lore, and there are still teams in the league. Can that team do it?"

Amid all the praises, the king flew to Salt Lake City overnight, and after a night's rest, he challenged the Jazz back to back.

Su Yang arranged for Curry to rest in rotation, and at the same time limited Cousins' playing time to 25 minutes. The Kings finally lost 112 to 123 to the Jazz. Gobert's 11 offensive rebounds had a great impact, which once again caused many fans to think that the Jazz mode is useful.

Flying back to Saskatchewan, the Kings fought against the Clippers, Pacers and Suns, won a wave of three consecutive victories, and turned to open the Eastern Conference's three-game winning streak.

The opponent in the first stop is the Cavaliers who have won 12 consecutive victories. Many fans left messages on the official Twitter of LeBron and the Cavaliers, hoping that the Cavaliers can beat the Kings this time, so that the entire league can see more hope. Watching the game tediously.

 200 million words, thank you for your support!
