Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 54
Following Li Weisi's successful four-pointer, the entire Warriors team seemed to wake up. Everyone was completely different from the first half. They played extremely actively and even ran a little faster.

And because Li Weisi's desire to attack has increased, the Nuggets' perimeter defense has faced a huge challenge. The three-pointer Li Weisi has involved a lot of energy on the Nuggets' perimeter, which has also caused the Warriors to wake up inside. Ma Long even chased after Schayers, and didn't take such a bully.

When Liv assisted Alaric for a dunk, the score changed to 79:68, and the point difference returned to double digits again. At this time, 8 minutes into the second half, the two sides began to enter the rotation lineup.

This time Nelson did not replace Li Weisi according to the normal time, but let Li Weisi stay on the court, leading Hornacek, Higgins, Whitehead and Duckworth.

This is a dangerous move, because at this time the Warriors have three substitutes on the field, and it is difficult for the remaining two veterans to provide enough help to Li Weisi, which means that during this period of time, all the pressure It all fell on Li Weisi's shoulders.

The Nuggets did not replace Leaf, but let English take a rest. The opposite coach, Doug Mo, had obviously tied Leaf and Li Weisi together. , no one can separate the two of them.

The ball returned to the Warriors, and Li Weisi took control of the ball. Just after halftime, Leaf rushed up to meet him. Obviously, because of Li Weisi's long-range shots in the third quarter, he had suffered several losses and had learned a lesson.

Afraid of Li Weisi's three-pointer, Leaf hurried forward and wanted to stick to Li Weisi, not giving Li Weisi any room to shoot. Facing the defense that had already rushed in, Li Weisi, who was dribbling with his right hand, suddenly pulled the ball to the right. Appears to break through from the right.

Seeing that Li Weisi's ball was far away from his body, Leaf subconsciously wanted to reach out to steal it. The momentary hesitation slowed down his pace, and his center of gravity began to deflect to the right.

At this time, Li Weisi seized the moment when Liv's center of gravity shifted, and suddenly made a jump at his feet, and the ball came behind him with his right hand. With a reverse side jump and a back dribble, he successfully passed Liv's defense.

This seemingly fancy breakthrough rarely appeared in the NBA in the 80s with a lot of physical contact.

The reason why Li Weisi was able to complete this action breakthrough lies in his judgment on Liv's defensive reaction, which is based on the data he collected in the first half.

After successfully breaking through Leaf, Li Weisi was flat in front of him. Since he failed to get rid of Leaf, there was not enough room for Li Weisi to shoot. At this time, his shot was easily blocked. After all, his Golden State LaVine-like bounce was obviously not Leaf. opponent.

So Li Weisi dribbled into the penalty area. Seeing Li Weisi entering the penalty area, the two insiders of the Nuggets obviously hesitated. They didn't know whether they should abandon their defenders to defend Li Weisi.

At this moment, Li Weisi made a shot. With the help of motion inertia, he jumped with one foot. While jumping, he leaned forward and pushed the ball up with his right hand until it reached the highest point.

Li Weisi chose to throw.

The basketball successfully flew over the hands of Leaf and Nuggets backup center Rasmussen, and then came to the basket and fell straight, and the basketball was hollow into the net.

At 79:70, the score returned to within 10 points again.

"Knocks it down! Beautiful pass, perfect throw, soft touch, West played with Fat Leaf, this ball is not only pleasing to the eye, but also brought the score back to single digits." Live commentary Billy · Jin was so excited that he wished to use all the beautiful words to describe Li Weisi's goal.

Li Weisi's playful dribbles and throws attracted countless eyes. Under Billy King's explanation, the scene erupted into loud cheers.

"Heh, flashy moves, such extraordinary moves are impossible to happen again. If West wants to go further, he must abandon these fancy moves and be more refined." Rick Barry on the side poured cold water at this time.

"But, this ball is very beautiful, isn't it? Hahaha..." Billy King was extremely experienced, and quickly smoothed things over.

On the court, Rick Barry is an excellent player, but as a commentator, Rick Barry is not a good commentator. Because of his annoying bad temper, after only a few years of commentary, he and Bill Russell has the same name and was named a very opinionated commentary duo.

The result of this is that Rick Barry is rarely invited to explain now. If it weren't for the Warriors' home game this season, CBS TV might not necessarily invite Rick Barry.

Fortunately, Barry's bad temper did not affect the audience and the players on the field. At this time, Liv was full of anger. In the next round, he used Rasmussen's cover to successfully enter the inside line and forced Duckworth The defense scored the ball.

With an answer ball, the point difference returned to 11 points again.

It's just that even this can't relieve Li Fu. He must guard against Li Weisi's goal to wash away the shame he just suffered.

That's right, Li Weisi's behind-the-scenes just now, in Liv's view, is a shame.

Li Weisi dribbled the ball in anticipation, and Leaf couldn't wait to meet him. The story of the two falling in love and killing each other will continue to be written.

Facing Liv who was about to approach him, Li Weisi dribbled the ball vigorously with his right hand to make a pocket dribble. When he touched the ball again, he pulled the ball to his waist, and ensured the length of time to absorb the ball without turning his wrist.

Seeing this scene, Li Fu seemed to have known him before, and he didn't dare to go forward to reach out his hand again, and his center of gravity remained unchanged.

But at this moment, Li Weisi stepped on the ground with his left foot and made a perfect falling step breakthrough. Li Weisi broke through from Li Fu's left side. Li Fu could only be like a puppet, unable to move, allowing Li Weisi to pass by him.

Li Weisi, who entered the inside line again, came to a familiar place again, and faced a familiar situation again. Rasmussen blocked him before, and Liv pursued him later.

Unhurried Li Weisi took off on one foot again and threw the ball with one hand.

"Hmph, I still want to throw a shot, how could you succeed again!" Rasmussen took off vigorously this time, with his big hands covering the sky, he tried his best to block Li Weisi's ball.

However, the basketball did not fly towards the basket, but flew over Rasmussen's head. At this time, a big black one took off behind him, and his huge body was like a real big black bull flying in the sky. He caught the ball firmly with both hands and smashed it hard into the basket.

Alley-oop?

After landing, Rasmussen guessed what happened behind him before he turned his head. He looked at Li Weisi with a very ugly face, and then at Liv, thinking, Liv won't explode in anger, right?

"I have already collected your data, so your defense has no secrets from me. I advise you not to be angry. This is a gap in strength. You can't make up for it by being angry." Ready to return to defense Li Weisi, seeing Li Fu with an ugly face, was worried that he would lose his head, so he kindly persuaded him.

As everyone knows, what is the difference between his kind comfort and adding fuel to the fire in Liv's view?
It's simply murderous!
