98, the strength of the Grizzlies(1/3)
Although Nowitzki and Curry are both firing on all cylinders, Curry's firepower is obviously even stronger!
After all, Nowitzki is an inside player. His offense requires certain tactics and he needs to be fed the ball from the outside!
No matter how comprehensive Nowitzki's offensive skills are, at least he has to wait until he is in a good position in the low post and his teammates can open up the space before Kidd can pass the ball in.
Let Nowitzki dribble outside the three-point line and beat Kirilenko one-on-one?
That's a dream!
With Kirilenko's agility and speed, it would be enough not to mention killing each one!
Nowitzki needs the cooperation of his teammates, but Curry doesn't need it!
As long as his teammates open up the space, and as long as the feeling comes, Curry can take action anytime he wants!
A forced shot against the defender from beyond the three-point line?
Can!
After the pick-and-roll, do you use a double-attack to make a shot that is not in place?
Well enough!
Baifo shook the defender and drove to the basket to score?
Extremely easy!
A one-stop fast break three-pointer with dribbling in the backcourt?
No problem!
The comparison between Curry and Nowitzki fully illustrates one point, that is, guards have greater autonomy on the offensive end!
The scoring ability is very strong, but the defender is more powerful!
Nowitzki has a good touch and a high mid-range shooting percentage.
But Curry’s scoring power is even more explosive!
With 6 minutes left, Nowitzki made 6 of 8 shots and scored 15 points, which was quite efficient.
But in the same time, Curry on the opposite side scored 4 three-pointers and scored 3 under the basket, one of which was two plus one!
19 points, plus 3 assists!
The score difference quickly widened to 20 points!
After the third quarter, the score became 103:83!
With 83 points in three quarters, the Mavericks have scored a lot.
But compared with the Warriors, the Mavericks' scoring is not enough!
Trailing by 20 points in the third quarter, even though it was at the Mavericks' home court, there was not much hope of a comeback.
The Mavericks' home court was lifeless and silent.
The game started quickly in the fourth quarter, and the Warriors came on the bench: Lowry, Azubuike, Hayward, Tucker, and DeAndre Jordan.
Death Defense is back!
The Mavericks did not use all the substitutes this time. Barea, Terry, Peja, Nowitzki, and Chandler came on the field.
The Mavericks are going to have to fight to the death.
Terry kept running pick-and-rolls with Nowitzki, trying to play mismatched singles.
However, several players on the Warriors' defense are very good. Even if Lowry switches defense in front of Nowitzki, he can resist it!
With Terry, Peja and others on the court, the Mavericks' offense is indeed good, but their defense also has big problems.
Lowry and DeAndre Jordan's pick-and-roll was very powerful, and it was difficult for the Mavericks to deal with it.
Both teams increased their points quickly.
The game lasted 5 minutes in the fourth quarter, and the point difference was only narrowed by 3 points!
Carlisle called the final timeout.
After the timeout, the Mavericks made another substitution, with Kidd, Stevenson, Caron Butler, Marion and Nowitzki coming on the scene.
This lineup has great offensive firepower and is not bad defensively.
The Warriors also have the strongest lineup: Curry, Lowry, Prince, Tucker, Kirilenko!
It’s also a lineup that’s both offensive and defensive!
The lower limits of these two lineups are very high. As for the upper limit, it depends on Nowitzki and Curry!
This is self-evident!
King Nowitzki is indeed powerful, but Curry is even more unstoppable!
The only pity is that King Nuo is not a defender!
With Nowitzki's all-around skills, if he were a defender, he would probably be not much worse than Curry!
But there are no ifs in the real world!
Nowitzki used all his energy and attacked with all his strength.
The same goes for Curry. As long as the Mavericks are not in the backcourt, he double-teams them? He will resolutely fight one by one!
Start double-teaming in the backcourt?
Then I will move without the ball!
Even just moving without the ball? Curry can tear apart the Mavericks' defense and create scoring opportunities for his teammates!
This is the gravity of library!
Nowitzki scores a lot, but the Warriors have more firepower!
The score difference widened to more than 20 points again!
Soon? With 2 minutes left in the game, the score became 132:111.
The game has completely lost its suspense.
Deng Fang called a timeout? He replaced the starting player and came on as a substitute.
Carlisle also changed the starting lineup very wisely.
In the end, the score was fixed at 139:118!
Warriors win by 21 points!
The big score in the series between the two teams has also become 3:0? The Warriors are in sight of advancing!
After the entire game, Nowitzki played brilliantly and scored 41 points, 3 assists, and 11 rebounds.
Curry performed even better? He scored 10 three-pointers, scored 43 points, and also sent out 21 assists, 10 rebounds, and 5 steals!
All-round transcendence!
Extra large triple pair!
After the game, Curry once again made the headlines of major media:
Curry led the team to win the game with soaring points, and the Warriors beat the Mavericks to advance!
Ku Ritian is unstoppable, and a super triple-double in the playoffs shocked the world!
Who can stop Curry has become the biggest suspense, the Warriors have booked the championship in advance!
…
At the same time, another game in the Eastern Conference was also finished.
The Bulls relied on Rose's heroic performance to win a city on the road!
The Hawks' strategy remains the same, which is to let Rose shoot.
Although the shooting was not good, Rose took 27 shots and made 16 of them. He made 4 of 7 three-pointers and scored 44 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds!
If you let me vote, I will vote!
Who is afraid of whom!
I have to say that Ross is a ruthless person who is not afraid of challenges no matter what the situation!
This is the style of a superstar!
In addition to Rose's outstanding performance, the Bulls' outside players also performed well, making 10 of 20 three-pointers in the game, with a shooting rate of 50%!
Back at home, the Hawks no longer suffered at the buzzer and got 7 more free throws. However, their outside performance was quite poor. They made 1 of 6 shots from the field and were completely restricted by the Bulls.
Another difference is the rebounding gap. The Bulls grabbed 47 rebounds in the game, while the Eagles only got 34!
In terms of frontcourt boards alone, the Bulls grabbed 9 more than the Hawks!
This alone gave the Bulls 9 more shooting opportunities!
So it's not surprising that the Bulls won.
