Chapter 417 Summary Time Is Up
The game between the Nuggets and the Warriors started with a brutal dunk.
The Warriors did not expect that Xiang Chu would start so hard, and they felt that this was the first time they saw such an unstoppable player.
This is the Nuggets' strategy. Xiang Chu directly broke out to help the team gain an advantage and force the Warriors to give up this game.
However, the situation has changed a little bit, because the Warriors think so too.
Although it is more difficult for the Warriors to do it, because they need to play outside, but they did it.
Klay, Curry and Barnes feel hot, especially Klay Thompson, who can catch the ball.
The momentum was high on both sides, turning what had been planned as a quick fix into an offensive battle.
It must be adjusted, which is the idea of both sides.
Both teams chose the substitute lineup as the start of the adjustment, which quickly changed the situation on the field.
The performance of the bench lineup of the two teams is not as good as that of the main force. Only Barbosa performed well in the outside line for the Warriors, and Lu Wei is normal on the offensive end for the Nuggets.
It's not just luck that the Nuggets and Warriors can become the top teams this season.
For this game, they have prepared at least dozens of tactics.
The substitutes did not decide the winner, and they turned the contest to the main players.
Everyone's score is rising alternately. It is not a good way to retreat now. To adjust, we have to wait until the halftime break. We must go all out in the first half.
It is different from what everyone expected, but it does not prevent them from making a quick decision.
The defense of the two teams is very routine, but if you look carefully, you can see that their defense level is not up to the level of the playoffs.
In fact, they don't make hard moves, and their defense is quite satisfactory. Obviously, both sides are worried about accidents like player injuries, so they are actually more purely offensive.
The Nuggets are still Xiang Chu and Gallinari's main offense. In the second half of the season, the Nuggets found George Karl's ideal offensive method. Xiang Chu and the Nuggets played this kind of internal and external cooperation in the first season of the Nuggets.
But now the Nuggets are stronger, and other people can support them at any time, such as Middleton. If the Warriors don't pay attention, there will definitely be trouble.
On the Warriors side, the attacks became more and more concentrated.
Klay Thompson feels too hot, and Curry is more of a ball for him.
In the first quarter, Xiang Chu was the player with the most points on the field, but in the second quarter he became Clay.
However, the attacks of the rest of the Warriors were not so stable, and the Nuggets also took the opportunity to take the lead.
In addition, the Warriors' interior defense is actually a bit problematic, especially the bench lineup.
The Warriors don't rely on the inside to make a living. They often play small lineups, so they were also scored a lot of points by the Nuggets in the first half. Not only Xiang Chu, Nurkic also did a good job when he played.
Adding these factors together, the Nuggets took the lead in the first half.
It was only 4 points behind. This score made the Warriors a little worried. In the second half, whether to go all out or just take a gamble and let it go. Cole frowned.
In the third quarter, the Nuggets strengthened their containment of three-pointers and assumed the posture of winning the game at all costs.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, it is actually more convenient to block the three-pointer than to restrict the inside line. In terms of confrontation,
If the Warriors want to limit Xiang Chu, the confrontation must be upgraded, and accidents may occur in the game.
When everyone can't reach the level of desperately, it is obviously better for the Nuggets to operate.
The Nuggets' outside players don't need to worry about falling under the basket, Xiang Chu will take care of everything.
The Warriors obviously suffered a disadvantage in this way of fighting. They took the lead in making changes and became a small lineup. They didn't have too much entanglement with Xiang Chu inside, and directly double-teamed outside.
Xiang Chu didn't choose to defend for the time being, and the Warriors still have the ability to break through. At this time, it is time to test the Nuggets' ability to rotate outside defense.
After not caring about the inside, the Warriors' offensive ability has increased.
But the Nuggets are still sharp on the offensive end. Not only Xiang Chu, but the small lineup is still difficult to defend against Gallinari, and if they flank Xiang Chu, they will gain from the outside line.
In fact, the Nuggets' players have entered the excitement of the playoffs, and most of them feel very good.
The Warriors still maintained a good shooting percentage, but the score gap widened to 8 points at the end of the third quarter. 8 points are nothing for the Warriors.
But they are facing the Nuggets, and it is the last game before the playoffs.
With the rotation lineup on the field, the Nuggets still had a slight advantage, and the Warriors soon found the feeling.
Holiday, Speights and Livingston all played very well, and the score gap between the two sides was repeated between 5 and 10 points, but it was a little surprising that Cole did not intend to send the main force.
George Karl carefully watched the situation on the court, and finally did not replace Xiang Chu and others.
Although the Warriors recovered a few points in the end, the Nuggets have always controlled the situation on the court.
There is no need to be the main force in the situation, George Karl will not lose his style of famous coach.
In the end, the tit-for-tat battle for three quarters ended without much fluctuation in the fourth quarter.
Of course, if you only look at the score, the two sides still experienced a thrilling battle. After all, the Nuggets only won by 6 points in the end.
But for neutral fans, the competition between the two teams in the final quarter can be said to be without passion.
If you didn't try your best to fight, the lost part of the excitement cannot be expressed by the score.
After the game, Cole left only one sentence to the reporter, "See you in the playoffs."
The team has concerns. At this time, it can only admit cowardice. The media will definitely despise it, but the playoffs are about to start, and everyone's attention will be drawn to it. It's okay to admit cowardice.
The Warriors are not yet a strong team in the playoffs. It is normal for them not to dare to work hard for a home court advantage in the Western Conference Finals. It must be different if they are in the position of the Nuggets.
Besides, the Nuggets didn't dare to go all out, it's just that their style of play was more suitable for the previous situation.
The last day of the game is over, and the playoffs will be completely out.
The Nuggets are No. [-] in the West against the Mavericks No. [-] in the West. The Warriors are No. [-] against the Trail Blazers in the West. The Rockets are No. [-] against the Spurs in the West. bear.
In the East, the No. [-] Eagles played against the Nets. The Pacers were not inferior to the Grizzlies in the last battle. They were really overtaken by the Nets at the end, and the Pacers did not enter the playoffs.
The second Cavaliers in the East played against the seventh Celtics in the East, the third Bulls in the East played against the sixth Bucks in the East, and the last group was the Raptors against the Wizards.
In this way, the playoffs officially began, and the 2014-2015 season must be summed up.
A new king will be born, and the fate of many players will change during this period.
