257 The first in the west! The old driver of the hurricane!
The Rose Garden Arena exploded. Compared to Matthews' action just now, Zhou Si's domineering dunk completely ignited their passion!
"This is Zhou!
Never disappoints at critical moments!
And this old-fashioned style of play seems to be quite popular!”
Barkley glanced at O'Neal and explained happily.
But in the next round, Curry and Bogut hit the three-pointer directly after the pick-and-roll!
I won't give in so easily!
The score difference was narrowed to 11 points!
Reducing the score to single digits seems within reach!
The Warriors were tenacious, and Zhou Si continued to stabilize the situation on the Trail Blazers. This time he broke into the paint and assisted McGee for an alley-oop dunk!
The Warriors' next wave of offense failed to score, but Zhou Si on the Trail Blazers side still didn't stop, scoring suddenly and assisting Millsap to hit a mid-range hit!
The point difference was once again widened to 15 points!
On the sidelines, Coach Stotts' face showed a look of satisfaction.
Unlike others who think that the Blazers rely on their overall offense to win, coach Stotts has always known what is hidden behind the Blazers' overall offense.
It’s Zhou Si’s final killer weapon!
They don't need their teammates to be in top form. As long as they are not particularly tough at critical moments and can hit those damn open shots, it will be difficult for them to lose!
Time passes bit by bit, and the point difference also rises and falls, but an obvious trend is that the Trail Blazers are widening the point difference.
The chicken soup the Warriors were fed by Cole also has a time limit!
Under Zhou Si's constant blows, impatience and powerlessness once again surfaced in the minds of the Warriors players.
They are like castaways who are about to be swallowed by the deep sea, and are pushed back into the deep sea as soon as they surface!
Cole on the sidelines was also helpless.
In his opinion, the Warriors just had a chance to close the score and complete the reversal.
week!
It’s that week again!
He is already so powerful in only the second grade. How much can he grow in the future?
Cole, who was a teammate with Jordan, feels that Zhou Si has many of the same qualities as Jordan:
Competitive, domineering, elegant and ruthless!
It's just that the second-year Jordan is not as scary as Zhou!
Cole has a hunch that if the Warriors want to win the championship in the future, they must cross the mountain of Zhou Si!
The pace of the next game was completely controlled by the Trail Blazers.
Although Zhou Si no longer scores points like crazy, whenever the Warriors show signs of momentum, Zhou Si will always respond immediately by scoring or assisting his teammates.
Buckley lamented:
"The gap between the Warriors and Trail Blazers is just one week!
Zhou’s grasp of the situation is too strong!
This is the big picture!”
After the third quarter, the score on the court came to 78:99!
The Warriors scored a lot, but the Trail Blazers scored even crazier!
In the Eastern Conference, this is the number of points many teams have scored in the entire game!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Billups hit a cold arrow three-pointer, assisted Jokic and hit a three-pointer, leading the Trail Blazers bench players to a 13:4 scoring climax, widening the point difference to 30 points.
, Cole took the initiative to call a timeout and both sides retreated.
102:127!
In the end, the Trail Blazers won the battle for the top spot and avenged last year's loss to the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals!
For the Warriors, Curry hit 5 three-pointers and scored the Warriors' most 29 points. Thompson hit 4 three-pointers and scored 21 points. Bogut scored 11 points and 10 rebounds. Barbosa scored 10 points. There were no other players.
Score in double figures!
For the Trail Blazers, Zhou Si made 13 of 19 shots, including 6 of 9 three-pointers and all 6 free throws. He scored 38 points, plus 13 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks.
Lillard hit 6 three-pointers and scored 27 points, Matthews scored 12 points, Millsap had 11 points, McGee had 10 points and 4 blocks, and Jokic came off the bench to score 16 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists.
During the handshake after the game, Zhou Si touched Curry's head.
"Come on, I've done the math. If you score 9 more three-pointers, you can win the game."
Curry, who was feeling a little depressed at first, was furious!
"I want to score 14 three-pointers in the next game!"
"We'll see."
After shaking hands with McCollum, Zhou Si comforted the bench gangster who was locked up by Courtney Lee.
"come on."
Zhou Si didn't say more...
Because in Zhou Si's view, it will be difficult for McCollum to score calmly against Courtney Lee in the short term.
"I told you, we will kick their butts hard!"
After returning to the locker room, Lillard said loudly!
"That's right, now we are the only one in the Western Conference!"
Leonard responded, and other Trail Blazers players also laughed!
"Fight to win!"
"Fight for the championship!"
If the previous championship was just a declaration or an illusory slogan in their eyes, starting from today, it will be the goal for all of them!
If the first place doesn’t win the championship, who will?
…
After the game, Zhou Si and Lillard attended the press conference together.
Zhou Si continued to praise his teammates every day.
"JaVale did a great job protecting the frame today, he also did a great job controlling fouls, and guarded the penalty area very well."
"Nicholas was targeted today, and he does have shortcomings, but you can't deny his excellence and comprehensiveness!"
"Damien...
Uh, aren't they here?
He has already said it all with his actions!”
…
After the game against the Warriors, the Trail Blazers' winning streak has reached 4 games, ranking first in the Western Conference.
Only the Bulls can compare with them in the Eastern Conference.
Although the media is more optimistic about the Cavaliers, the Bulls, who focus on defense and don't need much running-in, are obviously in better shape.
While the outside world is abuzz with controversy over the top spot between the Trail Blazers and Warriors, Zhou Si has already embraced the challenge from the Mavericks.
The Trail Blazers had prepared well before this game. Since they were first in the Western Conference, they were not prepared to go down so easily.
This past offseason, Cuban still failed to pursue a superstar, but this did not prevent their operations from receiving unanimous praise from the industry.
Looking back, this team has a large number of available players that is rare in the league, and can even field two lineups that are close to the starting level.
The presence of coach Carlisle has given people a little more confidence in the players to "make the best use of everything".
In exchange for the former champion center and best defensive player "Boxing Champion" Chandler, he signed Chandler Parsons, the rich and wealthy Rockets coach, at a premium. The most buggy thing is that he completed the contract extension with the old driver for 25 million in three years...
This is blatant cheating!
You must know that the veteran driver averaged 21.7 points per game last season, and the gas tank is still full of gas!
However, with the Cavaliers and Warriors being beaten in front, the Mavericks, who have only made a lot of reinforcements, are still not favored by the outside world.
After the game started, the underdog Mavericks once again showed the resilience of their former championship, and they were inseparable from the Trail Blazers!
Coach Stotts' former boss, Blair, often made strange moves and played various pick-and-roll tactics with great success. The veteran coach even used his experience to bully Millsap and Big McGee in the paint.
To be honest, even Zhou Si had the illusion during the game that the veteran driver would score no matter how hard he threw it!
When the old driver started driving, he was completely unstoppable. Even Zhou Si's attempt to defend was in vain.
That Golden Rooster is completely unreasonable and ignores defense!
At the critical moment, Zhou Si and Lillard dominated the game.
After a summer of hard training, Lillard has become more stable from outside three-point range, and Zhou Si has an even better grasp of the game.
The two led the team in the fourth quarter and finished the game strongly.
Team offense?
Emmm...aren't two people a team?
Chapter completed!
