This Forward is Not Serious

"beep!"

With a whistle from the sidelines, Chandler moved the ball back to the Nets half, and the game officially kicked off!

Jokic tensed up and remained motionless on the floor, his eyes as wide as bells, afraid of missing the details on the court.

Lin Ying did not attack at the beginning, but Deron and Chandler picked and rolled to look for mismatch opportunities.

Compared to several other members of the team, Chandler's condition is maintained very well. A solid pick-and-roll created opportunities for Deron.

Deron played small and hit big, and successfully changed direction and went to the basket to shoot.

The breakthrough was beautiful, but the impact of the injury on him was also obvious at the end. Originally, his explosive power was strong and he could quickly create space for shots.

But his current jump seemed a bit slow, and the moment he took action was interfered with by Green's help.

"Dang!"

Deron's shot finally missed the basket.

Green turned around and picked off the defensive rebound, took a step forward and then swung it long.

Curry had already crossed the center line and accelerated after receiving Green's pass.

However, Bradley's defensive awareness is excellent, and he quickly switched to Curry and pinched Curry's left side.

Although limited by his size, Bradley cannot switch to the defensive line like Butler, but his defensive skills against defenders are very outstanding.

Curry advanced to the free throw line and tried to change direction but still couldn't get rid of it. He finally turned around and gave the ball to Thompson who was following up.

It was at this time that fans discovered that the Warriors actually formed a V-shape when running fast breaks, with Barnes on the left and Thompson on the right. .

Cole has mastered all the tactics he knows.

After Thompson caught the ball, he looked back and looked back before Johnson could catch up, so he chased after him and shot a three-pointer.

"Uh-huh!"

Just take action!

The Warriors come out on top!

They continued their efforts and played excellent defensive performances in the next few rounds.

And Curry took over the game on the offensive end. He first hit a three-pointer by running without the ball from the outside, and then used an air cut to score two more points.

After he scored 5 points in a row, the Warriors beat the Nets 8-0 in the opening game.

Karl directly reached out and called a timeout.

There was a commotion in the place.

Including Breen and Miller in the commentary box were also stunned for a while.

They don't know whether the Nets' strength has declined too much this season, or whether the Warriors have been underestimated by them.

During the timeout, Karl adjusted his offensive and defensive strategies. On the offensive end, he gave the ball to Lin Ying to initiate, while on the defensive end, he emphasized Curry's off-ball movement.

After Karl finished setting up, Lin Ying answered the question at this time.

"Steve was our coach last season. We know his abilities very well. The Warriors are exactly the team that can use his tactics. Don't underestimate him."

He can't say that the Warriors will be the favorites to compete for the championship. After all, this is the opening game. No one except him, who has an open eye, will believe that the Warriors can compete for the championship this season.

But his reminder is a good starting point. Most of the Nets were there last season, and they recognize Cole's ability.

After he finished speaking, the expressions of the team members became obviously more serious.

Lin Ying struck while the iron was hot, stretched out his hand, and the team members put their hands on top of each other one after another.

The top one is the fleshiest hand.

Lin Ying looked sideways, and Jokic looked excited.

This guy couldn't fight tonight and still be that dedicated.

"Nets!"

"come on!"

The team members shouted the slogan again and then came back on stage.

The emotions of the fans at the scene were still high.

Despite a slow start, the consecutive championships in the past two seasons have made them still confident in the Nets.

In the first round after the timeout, the fans cheered in unison.

Deron advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, gave the ball to Lin Ying, and then made tactical gestures.

The others pulled away, and Chandler stepped up to block Lin Ying.

Similar misplaced offensive opportunities as in the first round.

Lin Ying also chose to break through, but compared to Delong, Lin Ying's breakthrough speed was obviously faster.

Moreover, Pachulia stood there with her hands outstretched as if to do something, but in the end she had no time to do anything.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

Lin Ying can still solve the problem!

The fans watched the fun, but Jokic shouted excitedly, then turned his head and gestured with Dinwiddie next to him.

Dinwiddie looked confused.

"The center of gravity, the distance between Lin's center of gravity and the ground was so low when he broke through."

Jokic gestured even more crazily.

But Dinwiddie shook his head. He obviously didn't pay much attention to this detail just now.

After all, the attack was in the opponent's half, and from such a long distance, he couldn't see it clearly.

When they returned to the defensive end, the Nets made a slight adjustment. The person guarding Curry was changed from Deron to Bradley.

Bradley fully demonstrated his ability to defend without the ball. He bypassed two pick-and-rolls of the Warriors. However, Curry's ability without the ball was so strong that he ran a figure "8" on the court. , and finally took a three-pointer from Green's pass.

"Dang!"

Although the ball didn't go in, it still scared the fans at the scene into a cold sweat.

The changes Cole brought to the Warriors were gradually revealed.

In addition to the changes in the lineup, another key point is to design a large number of off-ball tactics for Curry.

When Mark Jackson was coaching, Curry, like most defenders, was the starting point for holding the ball and attacking. The pick-and-roll between him and David Lee was the main offensive tactic.

This tactic is not wrong. Curry also played this way last season and made himself into the second team of the best team.

But Cole felt that this was not Curry's upper limit, so he designed these off-ball tactics. This is also the main reason why Green was mentioned as the starter.

Off-the-ball tactics require a passer, and Green is far better than Lee at this point.

Chandler picked up the rebound and the Nets played a fast break but failed.

The defensive culture that Mark Jackson created for this Warriors team did not disappear because of his departure.

Lin Ying once again held the ball, and Chandler once again pulled out a pick-and-roll.

"Pay attention to Lin's movements."

Jokic still couldn't hide his excitement and directly pulled Dinwiddie and said.

Dinwiddie focused this time.

After a while, his eyes widened.

Because he found that Lin Ying's sudden drop in center of gravity was so exaggerated!

Lin Ying is 2.08 meters tall (official height)!

This center of gravity is lowered like a defender!

No, not only lowering his center of gravity, Lin Ying completely protected the ball to one side when he broke through.

No wonder Pachulia had no idea what to do, it wasn't that he couldn't react, although he might not be able to react either.

But more importantly, there is really no way to do it, it is a foul!

This time Green on the weak side came to help defend, but Lin Ying quickly distributed the ball and the ball went directly to Chandler in the middle.

Eat some pie, little brother!

"Bang!"

Chandler showed his elasticity. He took off immediately after receiving the ball and bent his legs. He smashed the ball into the basket with a powerful two-handed slam dunk!

The Barclays Center instantly boiled, this is the Nets they know!

8 to 4.

The Nets got closer to the point difference.

"Defend! Defend!"

Driven by the on-site DJ, Nets fans began to cheer for their home team.

The Warriors continued to attack in the frontcourt. Jokic took one look and suddenly got up from the ground excitedly and shouted at Bradley.

"Avery! Here! Here!"

Bradley heard it, but didn't turn around.

But Karl turned his head and looked this way.

Before Jokic realized it, he was still shouting at Bradley.

Dinwiddie saw it and pulled Jokic back to sit down.

Jokic looked back at Dinwiddie fiercely, and Dinwiddie motioned for him to turn around.

After seeing Karl looking at him, Jokic immediately scratched his head in embarrassment.

At this moment, Curry once again received a pass from Green after running continuously on the field.

"Uh-huh!"

This time he seized the opportunity, and the three-point shooter rose and fell.

This was his second three-pointer in this quarter.

Karl's expression was stunned for a moment.

Because he discovered that the place where Curry finally caught the ball and shot was where Jokic was pointing when he yelled.

In other words, Jokic has seen through the Warriors' tactics?

This sounds a bit incredible, because before Karl has fully figured out his ideas, Jokic has already begun to judge the end point of the tactics!

11 to 4.

Curry's score in a single quarter has reached 8 points, and his two scoring periods were at the most critical times.

Although it is still the same as before, no one except Lin Ying knew that the Warriors would enter the championship competition this season.

But what they can at least see is that the off-ball tactics Cole set up for Curry have greatly increased Curry's offensive threat.

Lin Ying continued to break through in the frontcourt. The Warriors attacked early this time, and Lin Ying also quickly distributed the ball.

It was a diagonal shot, and Johnson had a wide open opportunity.

Cole had already started studying the "Five Deaths" last season, which is the biggest difference from history.

But he is still not sure whether Green has Lin Ying's ability to defend the opponent's center, and this will not work in front of Lin Ying.

So this is more of a test of the Warriors' defensive rotations.

It turns out they are qualified.

Because Johnson was still completely open before catching the ball, but when he took the shot, Thompson had already come to help defend, and then jumped up to interfere.

"Dang!"

Although this interference was not too big, Johnson's condition did not improve, and the basketball finally hit the frame!

The defensive rebound was picked off by Green. Deron reacted quickly and chose to foul directly to prevent the Warriors from fast break.

There was a commotion in the place.

Tatum arranged for the Nets to play the Warriors instead of the Cavaliers in the opening game, which was a bonus in itself.

But now, for a while, they can't tell who is the welfare!

Jokic had already sat back on the ground. He looked up at the LED screen and knew that the Nets were in a bad situation.

To use a very vivid metaphor, the Warriors are like young adults who have just reached physical maturity, while the Nets are more like middle-aged people who are over forty and whose body has begun to decline rapidly.

Although Lin Ying's existence makes it look energetic, many parts of it have begun to deteriorate.

These are things Jokic didn't expect before.

Because there is still a clear gap between his current strength and official NBA games, he cannot adapt to the intensity of the Nets' in-team training games.

Or to put it another way, the Nets' starting lineup gave him the feeling that he was already too strong during the training games.

But he discovered these problems only after playing against his opponents in official games.

In the Warriors' offense, Curry's off-ball movement caused Bradley's pulling foul.

There was a short whistle on the sidelines, and Carr replaced Joe Johnson with JR.

Taking advantage of this moment, Jokic stood up and chatted with Bradley on the sidelines for a while.

Although Bradley is involved with Jokic, it is because of Lin Ying. The two have a good relationship in private.

He had no time to pay attention when he was defending in front, but now he listened carefully.

And combined with the defensive round just now, he felt that what Jokic said was reasonable.

At this time, Karl noticed the exchange on the sidelines again. He looked at it for a while and then looked away.

At this time, substitutions have been completed on the field and the game continues.

Green pulled to the top of the arc and continued to catch the ball, and Curry also continued to use the pick-and-roll to move.

However, Bradley's defensive method has changed. He no longer goes around pick-and-rolls one by one, but moves to the three-point line in advance.

As a result, when Curry made a move, Bradley just made up for it.

The ball in Green's hand couldn't be passed, so he turned around and looked for Thompson.

Thompson came out of a screen on the weak side to catch the ball, but it was Lin Ying who caught him.

"Dang!"

Thompson's three-point shot was deflected by interference, and the rebound was picked off by Chandler.

The Nets defended!

Bradley advanced to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Lin Ying. After this breakthrough, Lin Ying chose to stop and hit a jump shot.

11 to 6.

Although the point difference was still 5 points, with this offense and defense, the Nets clearly stabilized the momentum on the court.

And after returning to the defensive end, Curry ran to the three-point line and had no chance. He turned around and cut back to the basket, and Green made a beautiful pass to the ground.

"Snapped!"

It was intercepted directly by Bradley after prediction!

The Nets played a fast break, and Green reacted quickly to block Bradley.

But Bradley reacted quickly and threw the ball directly to the center after Green came over.

Lin Ying had already rushed out.

And JR also quickly came down the right side.

On the Warriors side, only Thompson had time to retreat.

Two-on-one in the frontcourt.

When the two sides advanced to the free throw line in the frontcourt, Thompson directly gave up JR to block Lin Ying.

This kind of two-defense-one round can only be a multiple-choice question. He was ready to let JR score a three-pointer rather than let Lin Ying score.

However, Lin Ying did not choose to pass the ball. He knew that the Nets needed momentum now.

So before Thompson could fully turn his body, he was already in the air.

"Bang!"

In the eyes of the fans at the scene, Lin Ying suddenly rose up and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand directly through Thompson!

Before Thompson could react, he was dunked directly out of the baseline by Lin Ying...

The Barclays Center exploded instantly.

Jokic finally found an opportunity. He stood up from the ground suddenly and waved the towel in his hand frantically before everyone else.

That feeling was more exciting than Lin Ying dunking!

Especially the meat on his body is quite dynamic!

Behind him, Dinwiddie put his hand on his forehead.

What kind of creature is this guy who entered the alliance with him!
