Chapter 952 The last straw
Chapter 952 The Last Grass
The Warriors' strong period is not over yet.
Their inside advantage is obvious, and as long as they find a way to transfer Cousins out, they can pose a threat to rebounds.
After the timeout, Hayward cut out the opportunity to lay up and scored 2 points.
What is the tough response of the Warriors?
They gave the ball to the basket, and Drummond, who replaced Green, showed his control over rebounding.
He took three rebounds in a row at the basket.
The third time, he clicked the rebound back to the basket.
38 to 30
This is the second time he has made consecutive attack rebounds in the second quarter.
If Cousins were at the basket, this would not have happened.
The problem is that the Warriors are good at pulling the inside out, because once Curry and others get opportunities through pick-and-roll, if the inside does not go out to defend, the opponent will catch the defensive loophole and shoot.
The flexible use of pick-and-roll and the increased threat of outside projection have made traditional squat pit protection in the interior increasingly challenging.
With an 8-point gap, 76ers quickly transferred the ball.
Hayward, who had a free cut last round, benefited from Wei Xia's unball restraint, and the Warriors did not take him seriously.
When he and Wei Xia appeared in the same area, the Warriors' choice was to attack Wei Xia and release Hayward.
Wei Xia couldn't believe how much he was despised.
After all, Hayward is also a two-time All-Star, one of the three Big 76ers. He has comprehensive offensive methods. Although he has poor performance in the finals, the Warriors will definitely pay the price if they ignore him so much.
Wei Xia, who was treated with the other party's focus, found Hayward's open space.
From the right wing three-point line, Hayward received the ball and made a three-pointer.
Swish!
"When your opponent abandons you, all you can do is to invest in every opportunity and let the other party face you!"
In the finals, Hayward's performance did not attract the attention of the Warriors.
Tonight, when the 76ers needed him to stand up, he stood up.
Whether it was an empty cut and scored 2 points, or Wei Xia attracted double-team and made an open three-pointer, he aroused enough attention.
Without Green's deal, the Warriors' offense relies on the wing running and the driving of the back line.
Curry is not their ideal choice.
What the Warriors need Curry to do is to divert his own off-ball influence, and he is indeed working in this direction.
Frequent physical contact makes both teams unable to get good shooting opportunities for a while.
The Warriors' attack was handed over to Iguodala.
His chances were also bad. Under Hayward's defense, his dribble was not removed from the man, and he still made a move by jumping into the air and shooting.
40 to 33
Iguodala represents the will of the Warriors, and they don't want to give the Sixers a chance to reverse the game.
The offense should improve efficiency, the defense should be unambiguous, and there should be enough confrontation and small moves that the referee acquiesced.
The 76ers' tactics were cut off halfway.
Hayward, who scored 5 points in a row, could not continue his offensive performance. He needed someone to help him solve the current chaos.
Cousins wanted the ball, and Drummond tried his best to defend.
Cousins' comprehensive ability is far above Drummond, but the opponent's high-intensity defense allowed by the rules makes it difficult for him to connect a ball.
The difficulty of the inside dominating the game often depends on their catch difficulty.
