Chapter five hundred and seventy-two: the tenacity and counterattack of the warriors

"GOGOGO! Pacers!" Although the Pacers were still behind in a row of offensives, it was much better than in the first quarter.

The Pacers fans did not give up cheering for the team because of their backwardness. The momentum is now on their own side. At this rate of chasing points, it seems that the Pacers are expected to complete a turnaround in front of them before the end of the half.

The Pacers' offensive was like a tide, and the entire attack was like a stretch of sea water and pouring towards the Warriors' half.

Counterattack! You must find a way to score immediately to delay the Pacers' offensive, and the Warriors do not want to continue wasting valuable timeouts in the first half. They have to rely on the Warriors' own players to complete the counterattack.

Curry quickly advanced to the Pacers' half-court with the ball. Oladipo's good offensive state at the beginning also boosted his defensive enthusiasm at this time.

Curry had just passed the half. After confirming that Curry could not speed up and break through himself, the first thing Oladipo did was to walk forward and stick to Curry and prevent him from taking three points.

"The right choice for defense. Facing this first three-pointer in history, you can't give him a chance to raise his hand. Only in this way is the safest way to defend them." Reggie Miller has publicly admitted that Curry is the first three-pointer now, and this is indistinguishable. According to this efficiency, Curry steadily broke the number of three-pointers in less than two seasons, and the average shooting average of Reggie Miller has surpassed Reggie Miller in a single season.

But Curry is not the kind of three-point shooter who doesn't give him space and he's gone. Otherwise, he wouldn't be Ku Ritian in 2016, nor would he be elected as the unanimous MVP in that season.

As a defender with average physical fitness, he has a shooting rate of up to 60% in the interior, and his number of shots is not very small. Under normal circumstances, such a shooting rate is either an inside player like Lin Sen or a player like James and Oladipo who has a strong impact in the interior, while Curry is the third type, his hands are very beautiful.

When he lowered the center of gravity and broke through, it was impossible for Oladipo to let him enter so easily. However, when Oladipo's center of gravity had just been put down, Curry took a step back and raised his hand and scored a three-pointer in 0.5 seconds or less.

Hit! A three-pointer that stopped bleeding, this goal made the Pacers' offense slightly stop at this time.

This is the characteristic of the Warriors team. They will use three-pointers to cut off your offensive rhythm when your offensive is on the rise, and then they can directly set off a wave of waves with the three-pointers.

After Curry, Thompson immediately made a quick attack counterattack to chase the three-pointer at a 45-degree angle. This is what Thompson is best at doing. He catches the ball while running and stops at the three-point line.

There are not many players in the league who can hit 40% of the three-pointers in open space. Many players probably have this level, but there are people who can pull up like Curry. Thompson can run at full speed and catch the ball and shoot at this level, which is probably the Warriors team.

Two consecutive unreasonable three-pointers once again gave Pacers' disadvantage to the edge of double-digit numbers.

This really defeated the Pacers' momentum. On the offensive end, the Pacers ran their tactics and made serious attacks. They finally managed to catch the score back, but after just these two three-pointers, they were gone. This would be a little discouraged if any team was left.

If there is a problem with the Pacers' running or counter-defense, this is understandable, but if the defense is not problematic and you are thrown in, it will be the most harmful to morale.

Especially for a team like the Pacers, which has the best defense in the whole league and is extremely confident in themselves, the opponent scored 48 points in his first quarter in the last game.

And now, after a few days of intensive training and defense, OK! I won’t just collapse in the second quarter, so I’ll just put this time in the first quarter.

First, he almost scored the highest score in the first quarter of the finals, but he still couldn't stop the decline in the second quarter. Seeing that the second quarter had 3 minutes to end, the Warriors had already scored 60 points at this time. If it weren't for the Pacers' offense running smoothly in the second quarter, it would probably be a score difference of about 10 points now.

However, it is difficult to satisfy McMillan in this situation. He is very satisfied with the team's offense, but what he is not satisfied with now is their defense.

Both sides played a little evenly in the last three minutes, and the offense played a perfect rhythm, but no one could do anything to the defensive end.

The scores have been rising alternately. Durant completed a beautiful breakthrough at the last moment. Facing Lin Sen's defense, he scored a goal in a big loop, and at the end of the first half, he also caused Lin Sen's third foul.

Even Lin Sen, who has always been very calm, was a little angry about this foul. Just now, Reggie Mu was still saying that he was more careful in controlling the foul now. Now, Durant immediately slapped him in the face with a Harden-style foul.

"This is what he came across! My hands are straight and straight." After this ball, it was pulled open by the opponent to 10 points, which was not the most important, and Lin Sen's third foul was the most important. So Lin Sen was so excited. If it weren't for the end of the second quarter now and in the Banker's Life Arena, this technical foul would have been gone.

The biggest problem in this quarter just now was not offense, but defense. After Lin Sen got off the court, their offense might become weak, but they did not have other offensive points. Oladipo, who found his form at the beginning of the second quarter, and their three-pointers were all online in the European double guns throughout the playoffs. Even without Lin Sen's involvement, they still had strong offensive power.

But defense, Lin Sen's defense has been very good just now. Perhaps because of the Warriors' touch, he did not have any good way to stop the Warriors' scoring, but at least in the next few minutes, the Warriors' offense slowed down. I'm afraid even the Pacers themselves would not be able to imagine how hesitant Lin Sen, who had only three chances of fouls in the next half, would have played on the defensive end.
