Chapter 704 [Hurricane Three Points, Away Shot]
Seeing that his teammate's offense was blocked, Conley began to take on the offensive task, breaking through to the layup after blocking and dismantling, and making a pull-up jumper.
Conley scored four points in a row, but once he didn't score a layup, it was a bad thing, there were multiple misalignments on the court, and he couldn't prevent it back.
Farid grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and passed it to Paul, who didn't pause and immediately made a long pass to Griffin.
Yang Rui does not force Griffin to protect the backcourt rebounds all the time, observing the situation on the court, he and Farid do a good job of division of labor, there is always one to grab the rebound, and the other to go fast.
Griffin got rid of Kwame Brown completely, drove straight in the middle, and Wright was quick to return and block the breakaway. Griffin had the advantage but didn't get stronger, he changed direction to the left during the run, threw the ball high to the right, and Guy jumped up and dunked the basketball in the air.
The two of them must have been selected for the top five balls in this performance.
Hornacek was forced to call for a substitution, and after only a short play, Kwame Brown came on, and the blue-collar striker Dominic McGuire, who is 206cm tall and weighs 100kg, came on.
McGuire lacks offensive prowess, averaging 3.3 points and 3.8 rebounds per game with the Bobcats last season and relying entirely on defense in the league.
The Warriors finally defended the run-and-gun counterattack, and the Clippers still had a way to score in positional battles.
The Clippers led 37-23 in the first quarter.
Randolph scored eight points and Conley scored eight, and the offense was largely up to them.
The Clippers bench also has a strong offensive power, and the Warriors are much worse, led by Lopez, who has rested for a while.
Clippers five: Curry, Tony Allen, Parsons, Battier, Farid.
Warriors five: Nate Robinson, Charles Jenkins, Brandon Rush, Dominic McGuire, Lopez.
Hornacek was a little confused when he looked at the Clippers lineup. He thought that Lopez was going to deal with Aaron Gray or veteran Kurt Thomas, but he didn't expect Yang Rui to play the center directly with Farid.
Yang Rui used the "five small deaths" tactics of the Warriors in his previous life to deal with the Warriors, Steve Kerr was very bold in arranging the lineup, often letting Draymond Green, who is 201CM tall and weighs 104 kg, play the center as a cameo, and Iguodala, who is 198CM tall and weighs 100 kg, plays power forward, and the counterattack speed reaches the fastest.
Farid and Green are both short insiders, 203cm tall, weighing 103kg, strong muscles, and not afraid of confrontation. It's hard for him to keep Lopez off from a low-post single, but he's much faster than Lopez, and once the Warriors miss, it's impossible to catch up with the opponent on the counter-attack.
The Clippers defend man-to-man, expose their shortcomings to the Warriors, put the opponent's core single, and strive to suppress the opponent with a better overall offense.
The tactical core of the "Death Five" is the lineup to fight each other, so in Yang Rui's previous life, every time the Cavaliers played the Warriors in the finals, James could play gorgeous statistics, but it was difficult to win.
In the shrinking season, most teams are not good at distributing player fitness, and the Clippers are mainly running and bombing, which will definitely ensure the winning rate.
Of course, the physical exertion of Clippers players will be great, but they play with a lot of people and can be rotated. When encountering a team that is also fast and good at preventing running and bombing, Yang Rui will consider slowing down the tempo.
Nate Robinson was cut by the Thunder, joined the Warriors with a one-year salary, is still very arrogant, aggressive offensively, wants to prove his strength, and signs a big contract next year.
It's a pity that no matter how good he is on offense, he won't get a big contract, and the flaws on the defensive end are too obvious. Curry singled out Robinson and hit two three-pointers, both of which were catch-and-shoot. The third time Curry dummy past Robinson and burst inside to draw McGuire to the defense, and Battier hit a three-pointer from the bottom right corner.
Once the Clippers start to rain three-pointers, last season's Mavericks can't stand it.
In the second half, the Clippers replaced Griffin and Gay, replaced Faried and Parsons, and continued to maintain the lead.
At halftime, they led 75-51.
On the Internet, people are praising the two newcomers of the Clippers, whose performance is surprising, and they are both instant combat power.
Parsons can play as a playmaker in the middle, shoot three-pointers, and is not slow to counter up.
Farid was extremely fast on the counterattack, and he was able to cut to the wing in positional battles, scoring 8 points and 6 rebounds in the half. He is also active on the defensive end, and Lopez dares to be close to him, although he can't prevent death, but the Warriors hang the ball to Lopez again and again to play low, and he can't play it when he is used to tactics.
In the past two seasons, Lopez has become accustomed to shooting after covering from the perimeter, and the task of attacking in the low post is generally Randolph's, and he is not comfortable playing.
Barkley commented: "The Clippers always surprise people, last season the media analyzed that they lost on the inside, the center offense was poor, and Griffin played poorly in key moments. Instead of bringing in those slow shot-type interior lines, they stepped up their running and shooting, and they played more beautifully today. ”
"As long as Farid becomes the Clippers' Rodman, Jerry will definitely be able to build a dynasty again, and he will play at the No. 4 position and partner Griffin and not lose any team in rebounding," Smith said. ”
"When Farid rests and Chandler plays, the Clippers' defensive intensity increases, whether it's fast or slow, they're strong," Barkley said. ”
In the third quarter, Lopez was fouled twice by Paul and Griffin, for a total of four fouls. Sending Kwame Brown and McGuire can only defend, and the offensive end is a decoration, which is very contradictory.
The Clippers led 111-77 into the final quarter.
The Warriors don't want to lose too much at home, and Lopez, Randolph, and Conley continue to play.
The Clippers fielded an all-bench lineup, led by Curry, and the other four were Danny Green, Korver, Parsons, and Aaron Gray. All 12 players in the squad have played.
Parsons organized the forward, Gray covered his teammates on the side, Curry shot three three-pointers in the quarter, and Green hit four three-pointers, and the margin continued to widen, shocking everyone.
CCTV5 Zhang reasonably said: "Danny Green, a marginal person, has a convulsion, and the Warriors can't play in this game today." Parsons, a second-round rookie, was also amazing, got a lot of playing in the opener, and he played smart, which reminded me of Turkglou, who was really no worse than Dunleavy. ”
Yu Jia said: "In the summer, no one found Parsons' value, or that he could play so well in the Clippers system. ”
Seven minutes later, the Warriors replaced all the main players, and the starters had no advantage in playing as a substitute, which was even more humiliating.
Yang Rui didn't make any more substitutions, this is already a marginal lineup, Neil didn't make the squad today, and Curry must be there.
Before the start of the new season, many fans thought that the Clippers lineup was too weak, obviously inferior to the Mavericks, Cavaliers, and Lakers, and it was impossible to win the championship. In fact, having an All-Star-level guard like Curry to lead the team to play the opposing bench is simply a hooligan.
At the end of the game 145-105, the Clippers won by 40 points and got off to a good start, and the Warriors' home fans did not leave the game early, and many people applauded the Clippers players at the end.
Although the home team was abused very badly, this game was very exciting, especially the Clippers staged a lot of wonderful goals, except for the violent dunk is three points, almost no shots.
The Clippers made 22 three-pointers throughout the game, and Barkley said that if he hadn't started early, he might have broken the three-point record in a single game.
Curry played 32 minutes, shooting 14-of-22, 8-of-13 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, scoring a game-high 38 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.
Danny Green played 12 minutes in the final quarter, scoring 14 points on 5-of-7 shooting and 4-of-6 three-pointers.
Paul, Korver, Griffin, Parsons, and Guy also made three-pointers, and they all blossomed with out-and-out multi-point shots.
In contrast, the Warriors' offense is unwatchful, with few dunks in the whole game, both interior stars are floor streams, and Conley is a low-key guard. The most passionate on the team is Nate Robinson, who is just a bench, and if it weren't for him, Curry wouldn't be so easy to shoot three-pointers......
