Warriors coach Steve Kerr has played in the NBA for 15 years and won three consecutive championships with Jordan.
Hit the buzzer beater in the finals.
After retiring, he worked as a TNT commentator for several years.
He is now in his tenth year as the head coach of the Warriors.
He has been playing basketball almost his whole life.
So he knows very well what a full-court press is.
Generally speaking, there will be a full-court press in two situations.
One is that in the last one or two rounds of each quarter, when the offensive team holds the ball and time is about to run out, the defensive team will press the entire court to prevent them from scoring;
Another situation is that in order to disrupt the offensive team's rhythm, the head coach will suddenly launch a full-court press within two or three rounds, which often achieves miraculous results.
But a full-court press also comes with huge risks.
With ten players stretched to cover the whole court, the space is widened.
It can easily create opportunities for the attacker to break through, and even risk missing someone.
Moreover, the full-court press consumes a lot of physical energy of the defender.
Therefore, coaches generally only use the full-court press in just a few rounds.
After these few rounds, you will return to your normal play style.
It is very rare for the Kings to launch a full-court press right after the game like today.
But Cole was in no hurry.
It's only two or three rounds, and the Warriors are not at all interested.
However, for the next five consecutive rounds, the Kings pressed the whole court in every round.
The five players were really acting like crazy. They had kitchen knives in their hands and started to chop down Warriors players whenever they saw them.
Although they missed one player during this period, it mostly left the Warriors players at a loss.
So much so that in just three minutes of play, the Warriors had already made three mistakes.
The Kings actually beat them to a 12-3 climax.
Warriors coach Kerr had to call a timeout.
At the end of the game, all the Warriors players were a little confused.
Green sat down on the bench and cursed: "Damn, these guys are so fucking sick. How can they press the whole court when they come up?"
Curry shook his head slightly continuously.
There is no way to play ball like this.
He has been playing football for so many years, and he has never seen a continuous full-court press from the very beginning.
Normally, the full-court press lasts only two or three rounds, but now it has been six rounds, and they are still pressing the whole court.
This is crazy.
In the commentary box, Reggie Miller and Wade were also quite surprised.
"The Kings don't pay any attention to saving energy. Without Wang Yi, they are like mad dogs. Are they planning to finish the first half and not play the second half?"
Wade puffed up his cheeks and said: "I think they wanted to keep the Kings from falling too far behind before Wang Yi arrived, so they pressed the whole court like crazy. But this also hid a hidden danger.
What do they do in the second half when they run out of energy?"
When he said this, Wang Yi's picture appeared on the screen of the tablet next to him.
This is a group of photographers officially arranged by the NBA.
After Wang Yi entered the playoffs, basically every game exploded. Even if he occasionally stretched his hips, his hip stretching data was beyond the reach of ordinary players, so he is now very popular.
.
The league learned that Wang Yi would not be able to play in the first quarter, so NBA officials directly sent a group of camera crews to greet Wang Yi at the airport.
From the moment he got off the plane, he was followed and filmed.
This will greatly reduce the boring feeling of the game and increase the fun.
At this time, the director also brought in the scene of Wang Yi just getting off the plane, and split-screen live broadcast with the live broadcast.
Wade: "Oh, Wang Yi got off the plane."
Reggie Miller: "Live broadcast of him rushing to the stadium, Wang Yi's cards are really big."
In NBA history, there have been live broadcasts of a player rushing to the court.
That is Fisher, the minnow who once played for the Lakers.
During the Lakers Finals, he had important personal matters to deal with.
When the game started, he finished taking care of his personal matters before rushing to the court.
He didn't arrive on the court until the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter, and he hit several key goals on the field.
At that time, the scene of him rushing to the game site was broadcast live.
Now, Wang Yi also has such treatment.
It's just that Fisher's game was broadcast live on a local TV station in Los Angeles at home.
Wang Yi was in an away game and was officially broadcast live by the NBA.
Compare the two and make a judgment.
When the audience saw Wang Yi coming, they didn't pay much attention.
After all, compared to the Warriors, the Kings are too weak. Even if Wang Yi is included, they are far from a match for the Warriors.
Curry looked up at the big screen and looked at the picture of Wang Yi just getting off the plane. A trace of fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.
This game is a bit interesting with Wang Yi.
Every one of the Kings players became excited when they saw Wang Yi getting off the plane.
Barnes took the opportunity to say: "Boys, we have done very well just now. If we keep it up, we must let Wang Yi see that we are leading instead of lagging when he enters the stadium, giving him a big surprise.
"
"roar!"
"roar!"
"roar!"
The King fist-bumped all the players and shouted in unison.
When the Chinese fans saw Wang Yi and Nicole getting off the plane together, they all became excited.
"He's coming, he's coming, he's coming!"
"Brother Yi v5, private jet, accompanied by beautiful women, a sure winner in life."
"The last time I participated in the game after the hearing, it exploded. Will this one explode?"
"Brother Yi, which game doesn't explode? Let me ask you, which game doesn't explode?"
After the Kings came back from the timeout, the Warriors players felt that the Kings should restrain themselves a little bit.
However, the Kings players were inspired by Wang Yi and instead of restraining themselves, they continued to press the whole court.
It's like a pack of hungry wolves chasing a group of sheep and biting them like crazy.
Although the Warriors players were mentally prepared this time, they still felt uncomfortable playing.
Moreover, head coach Cole also told them just now: Let him bite you.
The harder the Kings bite, the faster their physical energy is depleted.
Let them run wild for a while in the first half, and it's the Warriors' time in the second half.
In the next few minutes, under the crazy attack of the Kings, although the Warriors played very hard, they reduced their mistakes.
And after all, the gap in talent and strength between the two sides lies here.
Curry unexpectedly threw a three-pointer, and Tang Shen unexpectedly threw a three-pointer.
In addition, Goji Wiggins occasionally scores two points.
So they have slowly caught up with the points difference.
With only three minutes left in the first quarter, they chased the point difference to only three points.
Three-pointers are not an advantage at all for the Warriors.
Either Curry or Thompson scores a three-pointer.
In the split-screen live broadcast on the big screen, Wang Yi had just come out of the airport and got into a car heading to the arena.
Originally, Nicole had prepared a car to pick up Wang Yi, but in order to facilitate the live broadcast of Wang Yi's journey, the alliance specially prepared an off-road vehicle with a large space.
"If there is no traffic jam, he is still five minutes away from the arena. He should be able to make it in time for the second quarter."
Wade looked at the time given on the screen and said.
But Wade's words came true.
Chapter completed!
