The Nets 'current situation was very grim.
Not to mention being behind by 20 points, the team's number one offensive core, Wang Ting, also consumed a lot of physical strength.
In the game just now, because the other teammates could not stand up, the Warriors focused their defense on Wang Ting, causing Wang Ting's physical fitness to decline sharply.
"Your Majesty, you've done a good job.”Atkinson came over and patted his shoulder.
Under such strict defense, Wang Ting was still able to maintain a hit rate of more than 50% and only made one mistake. It was really admirable.
Even though they were behind by a large margin, it was a matter of the team's overall strength. You really couldn't ask for more from the core player who had done his best.
Wang Ting panted heavily and said with red eyes,""Coach, I can't rest yet. The Warriors will most likely take their main players off now. This is a good opportunity to catch up!”
Compared to the fierce starter, the Warriors 'substitutes were slightly weaker. Iguodala and Livingston were not to be underestimated, but they were not the kind of players who were good at scoring. They were also old, and the opposing substitutes could not stop their crazy scoring.
"No, you're too tired. You have to rest.”Atkinson shook his head and refused." Your current task is to recover your strength as soon as possible. Leave the task of recovering points to us.”
The Nets coach had a good attitude toward Wang Ting, but he had a completely different attitude toward the other four starting players."Look at what you guys are playing! I need one of you to stand up and not let the King fight alone!”
The four deaf men pulled their heads and said nothing.
In fact, if they could fight hard like Wang Ting, even if the team could not beat the other party, they would not lose by 20 points in one breath.
However, everyone subconsciously thought that they couldn't beat the Warriors. They were timid before the battle, and they naturally didn't want to play the ideal results.
"Especially you, D'Angelo!"
Atkinson did not hold back and criticized,"Do you think that you don't have to take responsibility just because you gave the ball to Wang? Wrong! You were the one who should have stepped out to relieve Wang Ting of the pressure, but you went invisible after missing three shots. Did I scold you for not being able to score! Shoot! Don't you know that the more you're afraid of missing, the lower your shooting rate will be? Stand up and shoot!”
"I…"
Lasalle opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to argue.
He was indeed terrified. After being completely defeated by Thompson on both sides of the offense and defense, he had basically lost his confidence and even had the intention of giving up on himself.
"For now, Carlo will remain on the field.”Atkinson said," The rest of you, sit down and reflect on yourself. If anyone dares not to play like a girl after their second game, I will immediately remove your starting position!”
The pause ended and the match continued.
After that, under Ding Weidi's leadership, the Nets 'situation gradually improved. Step by step, they narrowed the gap to 13 points.
It had to be said that the Nets 'substitutes were much better than the starting lineup other than Wang Ting.
Even though he managed to recover some points, the basketball fans in the stands were still shaking their heads.
"No, what's the use of just relying on substitutes? When the Warriors 'main force comes back, the Nets will still collapse.”
"Carroll is doing better, but what the hell are the other three starting players doing? Wang Ting can't even get any support.”
"This reminds me of James in the finals in June. He really couldn't lead his teammates.”
"The Nets should trade a few strong players to assist Wang Ting. These people are completely unreliable.”
No one would blame Wang Ting because he had already done enough.
The other players became the target of the fans 'abuse. Everyone felt that the Nets' starting lineup was too disappointing.
With 7 minutes and 23 seconds left in the second quarter, Wang Ting and the starting lineup came on, and the Warriors switched back to the main lineup.
At this moment, the score of both sides was 52:40 Nets
The substitutes led by Ding Weidi tried their best to close the gap to 12 points, filling in a lot of holes for the main force.
However, if they continued to play like the first section, they were afraid that before the old pit was filled, a new pit would appear. At that time, even if they tried their best, they would not be able to fill it.
Currently, the lineup of both sides was:
Warriors
Point Guard: Curry
Point guard: Thompson
[Small front: Iguodala]
Big front: Durant
Center: Green
the Nets
Point Guard: Wang Ting
Shooting guard: Russell
[Small front: Dudley]
Big front: Farid
Center: Davis
On the Nets 'side, Atkinson sent two big men with strong bodies, aiming to use their height advantage to play inside.
The Warriors, on the other hand, released the frightening " Death Five." It seemed that the Warriors 'head coach, Cole, wanted to set the tone for the team's victory before the start of the second half.
The match continued.
"Wang pushed forward with the ball, rushed into the three-second zone, and made a layup!”
"Wang passes to Russell. Russell decisively shoots and misses.”
"Wang, second pass to Farid inside. Farid missed and Davis 'rebound missed.”
"The ball was passed to Wang, and Wang chose to do it himself. The three-pointer was successful.”
"Dudley passes to Russell. Russell makes a mistake. Durant steals the ball!”
Compared to the first quarter, the Nets played much harder, but their field goal percentage was still pitifully low.
In the end, the team could only rely on Wang Ting to shoulder the responsibility.
On the other hand, the warriors on the other side had all kinds of exquisite passes and cuts. Their coordination was extremely tacit, and the efficiency of both offense and defense was frighteningly high.
Gradually, the match became Wang Ting's solo fight against the Five Tigers.
The fans could not stand it anymore.
While they were cursing Russell and the others, they also felt sorry for Wang Ting.
The current Wang Ting was a sad and lonely hero.
