This Forward is Not Serious

Chapter 514 My Poor Brother (Part 2)

After the shot, Curry jumped in place excitedly.

This year is also his contract year. If he doesn't have another chance, he will probably disappear from the NBA next summer.

If you look at NBA history, you will find that not many brothers can survive in the NBA.

Brother Jordan, brother Griffin, etc.

Because of a very simple reason, everyone who can play in the NBA has superhuman talent.

Generally, if a family can have one child, it is considered a natural choice. Why can you have two children in a family?

Not to mention that this person is still super giant.

Therefore, Curry's living environment has not actually become much better because his brother is already a giant.

He also needs to work hard to prove that he can play in the NBA in order to survive.

So it's important for him to get a chance to play at the end of the contract year.

Livingston continued to back up Curry in the frontcourt. This time Covington stepped in to help defend, and Livingston's shot was instantly interfered with.

"Dang!"

The basketball hit the hoop.

Livingston's post-up play is textbook, but compared to superstars, his ability to adjust in the air is lacking.

Therefore, as long as a striker with sufficient size and fast movement can quickly help defend when he turns around, he can provide interference.

Of course, then again, few teams in the league have such a defensive configuration.

The Nets have one, and more than one.

This is also the reason why Karl dared to use Curry.

Karl is "Crazy Karl," but there's no way he's going to make an unprepared decision at this level of play.

The rebound was won by Lin Ying, and the Nets launched a fast break.

Curry was still inside the elbow area one second, and had already rushed to the three-point line the next second.

Although he is thin, he is still short (Curry is about 1.88 meters with bare feet, and Curry is less than 1.86 meters), but he is really fast.

Lin Ying directly made a long throw from the backcourt to Joseph's hands, and Joseph suddenly scored from Curry in the frontcourt.

Curry Jr. caught the ball and Livingston flew towards him.

Livingston is a one-size-fits-all at the third position, which makes him very intimidating on the defensive end.

Curry has a chance to complete the shot, but it is easily blocked.

Then Curry's next choice surprised many people.

He faked a three-point shot, deceived Livingston and then threw towards the basket.

Although he didn't notice Iguodala coming back and was fouled on his final shot, he also won two free throw opportunities for himself!

The scene was filled with whistles.

Because he rarely has a chance to play, fans don't know much about Curry's playing style. They basically rely on scouting reports, or from the only garbage time, they see that he has a pretty good mid-to-long-range shooting ability.

But in this round just now, they also saw the big heart in Curry's small body.

This is critical for role players.

If you want to ask the difference between Korver and Joe Harris, the most critical point is this.

This is also something that can't be seen in scouting reports or garbage time games.

The Nets are really capable of playing individually!

But when it comes to surprises, Dean Walken sitting in the stands is the most surprised.

Little Curry was not recommended to him by Lin Ying, he signed him himself during the trial training.

Part of the reason is that Curry has good three-point ability, and part of it is because he is Curry's younger brother.

Having a superstar brother is not enough to help a younger brother stay in the NBA, but there will definitely be more opportunities.

Unexpectedly, it turns out that this is really the right person.

With just these two goals, Curry's basic salary contract is worth every penny!

Little Curry went to the free throw line and took a breath.

Made two free throws.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

Half of this burst of cheers was for Curry, and the remaining half was for themselves, because they found that their judgment was right, and Curry's psychological quality was indeed good.

With 20 seconds left before the end of the game, the Warriors made the final attack of the first quarter.

Livingston continued to hit Curry in the low post, but it was a fake hit.

When the Nets were helping to defend, Thompson came out through an off-ball screen, and Livingston dumped the ball directly.

"Uh-huh!"

Thompson's three-pointer fell into the pocket.

The peak "Buddha" has a very good three-point grasp.

25 to 34!

There were only 5 seconds left before the end of this quarter, and the Warriors narrowed the point difference by 1 point!

The Nets have yet to win despite Curry playing like this. This can also be seen why it is difficult for him to survive in the NBA.

Because although not every score happened on his head, it was all to make up for his defense, which gave the Warriors a chance.

But Karl's expression was relatively calm.

Playing Curry is just for transition. As long as the point difference can be maintained, the two minutes will not be a loss.

Lin Ying dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt quickly. Before he had passed halftime, the entire Warriors team was rushing toward him.

In the countdown phase of the first quarter, as long as Lin Ying's shot is blocked, it will be considered a defense.

But Lin Ying passed it at the last moment!

This ball is somewhat similar to the ball passed by Lin Ying to Durant in G1.

This ball was passed to...Little Curry!

Others have doubts about Little Curry's abilities, but Lin Ying is none other than Lin Ying. He is very clear about Little Curry's characteristics.

Curry basically caught the pass before he even reached the three-point line.

He didn't have time to adjust, so he adjusted on the move, and then stepped on the three-point line and shot a chasing three-pointer. To be more precise, it should be a chasing three-pointer at the buzzer!

This shot was extremely difficult, but once again what is surprising is that Curry shot it very steadily.

This psychological quality is no longer good, but a bit outstanding!

It seems that the two sons born to Old Curry have inherited his big heart!

"boom!"

This pitch is a bit big.

But the ball bounced off the board and fell into the net!

"Seth~~Curry!"

The DJ's long-pitched shouts rang out from the Barclays Center Arena.

This time Curry was not followed by Stephen, but by Seth!

Curry was directly "charged" by his teammates.

Usually only superstars can hit this kind of ball. Little Curry is like a god!

But my brother is blessed by God, and my brother is like a god, so there is nothing wrong with him!

And counting the previous three-pointers and free throws, Curry scored 8 points in just two minutes!

This is still a divine weapon descending from heaven!

The on-site photographer also immediately captured the shot of his brother on the sidelines.

Curry was not smiling at this time, but frowned as he looked at the score.

I want my brother to live a good life, but I don’t want my brother to live a better life than me!

And they are still opponents now. Curry's continuous performance is equivalent to adding another pinch of salt to the gap that the Nets have opened up for the Warriors!

True justice destroys relatives!

25 to 37.

The Nets ended the first quarter with a 12-point lead.

When Curry came off the court, he enjoyed a unified head-touching ceremony from his teammates.

Originally, Curry's personality was as lively as Jokic's, and his performance showed that all his teammates were happy for him.

At halftime, the Nets led 62-47.

Although the game is not over yet, Green seems to be starting to feel a little embarrassed.

Because if we continue to play at this pace, the Warriors will be in trouble tonight!

In terms of statistics, Lin Ying scored 30 points at halftime.

With 30 points in the half, the whole game must have broken a record.

Nets locker room.

Leading by a big score, the players were very relaxed, talking and laughing, and many of them were chatting about things other than the game.

At this time, Ariza took her bag and walked to sit next to Lin Ying.

"I recently discovered something delicious."

Ariza made Lin Ying a little confused as soon as he opened his mouth.

It wasn't until he continued to explain that Lin Ying realized that he was talking about instant noodles.

It turned out that during their trip to China, the two of them ate instant noodles together at the top of Badaling. Ariza felt that Lin Ying liked instant noodles as much as he did.

Lin Ying: It was quite sudden.

In fact, in that environment, even if you were just a steamed bun, it would still be delicious.

When a person is hungry, everything he eats tastes delicious.

However, Lin Ying did not stop Ariza's enthusiasm.

There are still many flavors of instant noodles, and the one they had that time was the most classic braised beef flavor.

Ariza probably didn't know the English translation of that flavor, so he just took it out of the bag.

Hmm, Laotan pickled cabbage flavor.

Back from halftime, the game continues.

Although the Nets lead by 15 points, the suspense of victory or defeat remains.

Because once "Yong San Crazy" goes crazy, 15 points is really not enough to catch up.

Moreover, the Warriors did not open three-pointers from the outside tonight, and only scored 4 in the entire first half, which is far from the 24 in the previous game.

Back in the second half, the Nets attacked first.

Lin Ying broke through the basket and caused damage, and got two free throw opportunities.

Cole also adjusted his strategy at halftime and began to shift his defensive focus to Lin Ying.

Durant didn't feel good tonight. Even if he can't really guard Lin Ying, Lin Ying's offensive efficiency will decline if he is exhausted.

Cole's idea is still very clear.

Lin Ying made two free throws.

Looking back, Curry used an elevator door pocket to come out and hit a three-pointer!

After scoring, Curry pointed one finger in the sky.

This was his first three-pointer tonight.

The Nets advanced to the frontcourt and began to play Curry alone again.

The Warriors flanked, Lin Ying passed the ball to Durant, and Durant took a mid-range shot.

"Uh-huh!"

The knife falls from the hand!

Durant seems to have regained some touch.

Then after retreating to the defensive end, the Nets defended Curry's elevator door.

Curry was interfered with the ball and did not get a direct shot, and then he was flanked.

The Nets' defensive strategy was successful in the first half, and there was no reason not to continue executing it in the second half.

The ball was in Barnes' hands again after several passes.

Although Barnes still struggled in the first half, Cole and his teammates chose to trust him at this time.

Barnes adjusted and then took action.

The ball looks straight.

"Dang!"

However, it finally came out of the box!

After seeing this, Cole put his hand on his forehead and really didn't know how to describe it.

Barnes' expression was also helpless, even if he couldn't score a goal, there was nothing he could do!

The rebound was won by Jokic, and the Nets quickly pushed forward for a fast break.

Durant received Bradley's pass during the fast break and directly chased for a three-pointer.

It can be seen that his confidence suddenly increased after the previous ball was scored.

"Uh-huh!"

The basketball passes through the net.

67 to 50!

The score difference is already 20 points!

Cole directly reached out and called a timeout!

The players on both sides left the field, and Barnes walked up to Cole and asked to be replaced.

He was really mentally shattered.

On the other side, Durant was high-fiving, chest-bumping, and roaring with his teammates when he came off the court.

I was strong in the first half, and it felt so good to get my touch back in the second half!

At this time, Xiao Curry was the most excited.

Because he has not received much attention before, but if you look carefully, you will still find that Curry is also a very passionate person on the bench.

After the timeout, the Warriors replaced Barnes with Iguodala.

Cole looked up at the score, his eyes a little complicated.

He came to the Warriors from the Nets and won the championship in his first season. In his second season, he led the team to break the 72-win record he set when he was a player.

No matter from any angle, this is an unprecedented way of debut.

But now, he felt that he might fall badly.

If this is the title of runner-up with 73 wins, it will also be unprecedented in history.

The effect of Iguodala's appearance was immediate. Curry broke through to the basket and drew a foul, making two free throws.

But looking back, Durant caught the ball and faked a shot, and he got inside and scored a 2+1!

If there was still a trace of doubt before, it is now certain that Durant's touch is really back!

Cole was already pouting and shaking his head.

Curry was waving towels excitedly with his teammates at this time.

Then the offense and defense switched. Curry moved without the ball and used Green's pick-and-roll hand to hit a three-pointer.

Then, Curry yelled at the sidelines again, signaling Green to move to cover.

The familiar scene appears again.

Curry looked at his younger brother and already began to miss the scene when he spanked his younger brother when he was a child.

In the end, the Nets defeated the Warriors 113-93 at home, rewriting the score to 2-1.

In terms of statistics, Lin Ying of the Nets scored 41 points plus 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Durant also had 24 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. Jokic had 9 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 blocks. Curry Jr. played He performed well and scored 13 points in 11 minutes.

On the Warriors side, Curry was flanked throughout the game and struggled on the defensive end. He only scored 16 points in the game, while Thompson scored 27 points and Green had 20 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists.

So in the end, Green was slapped in the face again.

And he was now officially in a state of double embarrassment.

Although in essence, the Warriors' second game win was an extraordinary performance and had nothing to do with whether Green played or not.

But there are always fans who don't watch the game. As long as there is a little publicity, Green will never be able to escape this wave.

Of course, putting this aside, the significance of this series is also very important.

Because Barnes can't find his touch, the Nets will continue to attack. Cole can only let Iguodala start, and Iguodala starts. The Warriors' substitute performance is worse than the Nets. A grade.

Then there is one very important thing.

In the next game, JR, who was suspended for two games, will be back!

"Ying, you are absolutely right."

At the end of the game, Durant put his arm around Lin Ying's shoulder with a smile on his face.

If they continue to play at the current pace, the Nets are really going to win the cup at Oracle Arena!
