Chapter 667: Tactics Work (3rd Update!)

The scene was shown to Cole, and Cole sat firmly on Mount Tai, without much emotional change.

The Warriors' offense, Curry's outside three-pointer continued the series' excellent touch, directly piercing the net.

No matter how aggressive the Pelicans' defense is, it will be difficult to completely limit the Warriors' offense.

The Pelicans advanced to the frontcourt, and Jokic continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc. After Tang Tian and Davis were both in position, he gave the ball to Tang Tian this time.

This is Davis playing Tang Tian!

Tang Tian's defensive intensity was not at the same level as Davis', and Green double-teamed him directly.

Tang Tian's reaction was also quick. Seeing Green approaching, he threw the ball directly over the basket.

Davis and Tang Tian played together for two seasons with a tacit understanding. He had already moved inside before seeing Tang Tian throw the ball.

When Tang Tian threw the ball, he also jumped up.

When the ball arrived, he pressed the ball with his right hand and smashed the ball directly into the basket.

It came from the lob cooperation between Tang Tian and Davis.

There were bursts of cheers.

The Pelicans scored two consecutive rounds in the opening game!

And the Warriors don't seem to have much to do with this new move of the Pelicans!

Curry's breakthrough layup was interfered by Davis and missed the basket, and Jokic protected the defensive rebound.

Holiday was not in a hurry after getting the ball, he dribbled the ball steadily to the frontcourt, and then passed the ball to Jokic.

Jokic continued to give the ball to Tang Tian.

The Warriors had exchanges on the defensive end, and this time it was Bogut who shrunk in.

Tang Tian didn't wait for Bogut to double-team him, and turned around to the bottom line and leaned back.

The Warriors' defense is fast, and Tang Tian's offense is also fast.

This is completely a direct duel at the highest level.

"Boom!"

However, he missed the ball, and Thompson's defensive interference was well done.

Bogut just turned around to protect the defensive rebound.

The Warriors ran fast across the board, getting straight into their best rhythm.

But their offensive and defensive transition failed to fight this time.

Curry and Thompson were already defended by Holiday and Ariza when they attacked the frontcourt.

In fact, when Tang Tian shot, Jokic, Holiday and Ariza had already retreated first, and only Davis was rushing to the offensive rebound.

Although the offensive rebounds did not rush, the Pelicans' defense was completed immediately.

That's the detail, and the Pelicans handle it pretty well.

"They found a way!"

Barkley in the commentary seat couldn't help exclaiming.

After the last game, Williams was questioned a lot by the outside world, but the adjustment in this game is impressive.

The Warriors' offensive and defensive transition did not start, so they could only play positions again.

This time they used infinite air cuts, and Thompson misplaced a three-pointer against Jokic.

"Shua!"

He made his second 3-point attempt.

After staying in the Hard Training Brothers training camp for so long, his three-point shooting stability is already the top in the league.

Jokic continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc, and he continued to feed the ball to Davis.

This is Tang Tian's fight, Davis' fight!

Davis turned to the baseline and then turned around, using his body to press down on Green's close-range scoring.

Davis has succeeded in two consecutive singles against Green, and his touch tonight looks very good.

6 to 6, the two teams played for two minutes at the beginning, and they played evenly.

The Pelicans' tactics worked!

Barnes missed a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and the Pelicans pressed the rhythm to the frontcourt. This time Tang Tian double-teamed the ball to Jokic at the top of the arc, and Jokic made a three-pointer.

Barnes didn't make a breakthrough layup, the Pelicans went to the frontcourt, Davis missed a shot, but Tang Tian threw away Thompson and jumped up to score.

11 to 6, for the first time since the series, the Pelicans had the upper hand on the scene!

There were endless cheers at the scene, and the fans were unprecedentedly excited.

It felt like coming to a high mountain. After climbing hard, I finally turned over with one foot!

Cole finally couldn't sit still, got up and called Iguodala up.

He didn't use the five young starters to pretend to be aggressive, but it seemed that his pretending failed, and he thought he was slapped in the face.

Curry's layup caused Jokic's thugs to get two free throw opportunities.

On his first free throw, Iguodala came on to replace Bogut, and the Warriors once again showed five small lineups.

Curry also had a second free throw, and the difference between the two sides was still three points.

Jokic held the ball at the top of the arc, saw that the man defending him was Barnes, and directly held the ball and broke through.

Barnes was originally playing at the third position, swinging at the fourth position in the five small lineups, facing the standard fifth position Jokic, twice his size.

Jokic beat him so hard, he could only try to steal, but Jokic was very steady, he failed to steal, Jokic directly pressed him to the inside, and scored with a one-handed dunk.

He looks very white and soft, but he hits really hard!

The Warriors made infinite cuts in the frontcourt, and Curry passed a good ball to Green, who scored with an empty catch.

With the Splash Brothers on the perimeter, the Pelicans did not dare to shrink defensively, and Jokic's weakness in one-on-one misplacement was relatively exposed.

However, this did not have a great impact on the morale of the Pelicans, which is also expected.

They were beaten in the first two games, and it is impossible for them to suddenly turn around and beat the Warriors after a few days.

Jokic went to the top of the arc and continued to hold the ball.

The Warriors' defense has been adjusted, and Green is in front of Jokic. As a short fourth position, it is not a problem for him to defend five.

But Jokic didn't hit it, and he lobbed the ball to Davis.

Davis playing Barnes is another misplacement, Iguodala shrinks on the weak side, and Davis directly distributes the ball to Ariza in the bottom corner.

Ariza catches the ball and makes a three-pointer.

"Boom!"

Ariza's three-pointer missed.

But Davis miraculously grabbed the offensive rebound with his long arm under the basket, and then caused Barnes' pulling foul and got two free throws.

Even if the Warriors' five small offensive ends do not play offensive and defensive transitions, they can still have an advantage in the positional battle with the Pelicans.

But on the defensive end they only have Green, and the Pelicans have Jokic and Davis at the same time. Green goes out, and the protection of the basket is obviously not enough.

Davis made two free throws and the Pelicans continued to maintain a three-point lead 14 to 11.

This has also become a microcosm of the entire game between the two sides.

Whether Kerr is using the regular lineup or the five minors, there is not much to do with the new formation of the Pelicans.

"Their three needs to be strengthened."

Smith, who was in the commentary seat, saw the shortcomings of the Warriors lineup at a glance.

Barnes' height and defensive ability are insufficient. As a fourth position, both low-post defense and rebound protection are weaknesses.

Fortunately, the Warriors' offense is online, and the scores of the two sides did not exceed double digits throughout the game.

In the stalemate, the two sides played until the last three minutes, and the score on the field was 106.

After a whole game, the Pelicans' tactics proved to be fully effective.

They were completely beaten in the previous two games, and now they have met the expectations of the coaching staff before the game, and have the opportunity to play the decisive moment with the Warriors.
