Chapter 549 Chapter 547: The possibility of a comeback
Klay Thompson scored 23 points in a single quarter, and the Warriors scored 42 points in a single quarter. If the Warriors play such a historic offense in a certain game, it is almost impossible for the Warriors to lose again in this game.

Leading advantage is one aspect, the most important thing is that the Warriors' approach is enough to completely crush the opponent's confidence and morale.The importance of these two things in basketball is self-evident.

So at this time, both the outside world and the Warriors fans feel that they have won.

"When Klay Thompson is hot, he can finish the game alone!"

"Coach Steve Kerr's strategy is very correct. In the second quarter, his tactical arrangement with Thompson as the core gave the Warriors a beautiful turnaround."

"This will be Klay Thompson's career night! If Klay can maintain that touch in the second half of the game, I won't be surprised if he scores 60 points!"

On the commentary stage, all the commentators were stunned by Thompson's performance.The cheers in the Oracle Arena were endless, and the major reporters had already left a large section for Klay Thompson, preparing to report heavily after the game.

But all of them have overlooked one problem-the game is not over yet.

"The game is not over yet. In the second half of the game, I need you to look for more opportunities from beyond the three-point line! Don't be afraid on the defensive end, and follow the original strategy! Stephenson, I still have a task for you."

While everyone was admiring Thompson's performance, Henson was still actively preparing for the second half of the game.This team can become the runner-up with 73 wins, and today Henson will let them bear another shame!

First of all, he made sure that the Pacers' defense is no problem.

Durant had 12 points in the half and Curry had 8 in the half.Except for Durant, Curry, and Thompson, no one on the Warriors scored more than 5 points in the first half.

Henson's change of formation did limit Durant and Curry. George's defense is actually very good, but Thompson's goal is too amazing.

Therefore, Henson will not change his defensive strategy for Thompson.It's okay to say that Thompson alone, if Curry or Durant is also liberated because of a change in strategy, the game will really be impossible to win.

Therefore, Henson hopes to put strategic changes on the offensive end.As for Stephenson, Henson needed him to do something he was extremely good at.

In the second half of the game, when Henson led the players into the field, the big screen was still scrolling to replay the highlights of Thompson's goals in the second quarter.

There is no doubt that they want to use this video to torture the Pacers' nerves. "Big Mouth" Green walked out of the tunnel with a haughty expression on his face, and smiled jokingly at Henson.

But Green didn't expect that the Chinese coach actually returned him a smile!It seems that the Warriors scored 42 points in the second quarter, which is not a problem at all.

"Damn it, after the third quarter, I'll see if you can still laugh!" The veins on Green's head were bulging, and he really wanted to go up and beat Henson up.

Seeing Green's reaction, Henson smiled even more happily.Get angry, you simple-minded idiot!

"In the second half of the game, the Pacers were in danger. They were 14 points behind the Warriors, and Klay Thompson's off-ball running was still so active. It seems that he has already scored 30 points in the half, and he is not planning to stop!"

Mike Breen frowned. Fortunately, his commentator partner today was not Mitchell Thompson.Otherwise, the old man would have blown his son up.

Facts have proved that even with the same pedigree and conditions, the talents of different players are very different.

You see, there are three sons in the Thompson family. The eldest brother and the second brother Clay both play basketball.Clay has been thriving in the Oracle Arena, but his elder brother is still struggling with an NBA contract.

Sometimes talent really knows no blood or family.A halftime break did not let Klay Thompson interrupt his determination to show his talent.

So Pacers fans are very desperate that Clay scored as soon as he came on the court.

"Beautiful hand-to-hand, Clay and Green's cooperation played brilliantly. In the end, he ended the offense with a two-pointer against George. The Pacers were 16 points behind, and Clay scored his 32nd point in the game! Just started the second half, and he already scored 32 points!"

Henson shook his head regretfully. It seemed that Thompson's hand was still hot.But he quickly put away his disappointment, and then stood on the sidelines, clapping his hands vigorously to calm down the players.

Subsequently, Paul took over Henson's command banner and began to organize the attack calmly.On the court, the head coach cannot be chaotic first, and the point guard cannot be chaotic second.If these two people are messed up, the whole team will be messed up.

The Pacers dutifully executed Henson's strategy, hitting back with [-]-pointers.

In the past two seasons, Paul George has mainly focused on offense with the ball, but people forget that he started off with offense without the ball.

George's superb running and Henson's well-designed tactics made Thompson seem to be back in the first quarter.That Pacers No. 13 shuttled through the crowd like a loach, and he couldn't catch George.By the time he caught it, George had already shot.

This time, after a series of runs and screens, George got an open long-range shot.Tactics are played out, but it depends on the players whether they can get in or not.Henson also knows that if this goal is not scored, the Pacers' confidence will completely collapse.

Sometimes, the crash is often generated in a single round.

Fortunately, George took the pressure off the heavy responsibility.His three-point shot went into the net hollow, sounding the clarion call for the Pacers to counterattack.

Although after this three-pointer hit the net, the Pacers were still 13 points behind, and the situation was still unfavorable for them.However, a stone in Henson's heart has fallen, at least the team's morale has stabilized!After that, everything will be a matter of course!
In the next attack, Durant's breakthrough was interfered by Antetokounmpo and failed to make it.Although Thompson feels hot today, it is impossible for the Warriors to give Thompson every shot.Don't underestimate the most basic technical action of shooting, which consumes a lot of energy.

And if there is no physical support, the stability of the shooter will not be guaranteed.Therefore, in order to allow Clay's firepower to continue, the rest of the Warriors will definitely step up and attack. This is Henson's opportunity!

Durant missed a layup, but the Warriors didn't care too much.Especially Draymond Green, this guy's defense is idle, in his opinion, the Pacers are just struggling needlessly.

So this time, Green didn't care too much about the defense.He pushed Frye with one hand, and his eyes were fixed on the penalty area, ready to defend at any time.

With George's first attack, the Warriors thought that the Pacers were looking for three-point opportunities, and all defenses were relatively outward.

As everyone knows, this time, Antetokounmpo and Lopez hit a pick-and-roll.Under the cover of Lopez, Antetokounmpo strode to the basket with the ball!

Durant is not afraid of any breakthrough in the third position, unless the height, wingspan and pace of the third position are as exaggerated as himself.

Seeing that Durant was thrown away, Green went to defend the basket.But he didn't go all out to pounce on Antetokounmpo, but kept his eyes open.After all, Antetokounmpo might pass the ball to Frye.

Therefore, Green's supplementary defense this time has lost the momentum of "fighting with you".But Antetokounmpo is here to do his best!
When Green saw Antetokounmpo take two steps directly inside the free throw line, he froze for a moment.By the time Green jumped to block again, it was already too late.He thought he was smart enough to keep an eye out, but he was just pretending to be smart.

In the case that the height and wingspan are not dominant, Green's take-off is more than half a beat slower.This led to Green just getting up when Antetokounmpo had already flown to the highest point.

It is impossible to block Antetokounmpo, let alone block, Green still has to face a serious problem: he may be blocked.

In the air, Antetokounmpo's body and Green slam into each other.But Green, who was not prepared, couldn't fight against the Greek with inertia bonus at all. He was slammed out of the baseline and fell under the basketball hoop in embarrassment.And Antetokounmpo smashed the ball into the frame hard!

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded.It wasn't Antetokounmpo's foul, but Draymond Green's defensive foul!

"What!?" Green immediately got up and stood in front of the referee and yelled.It's okay to be humiliated, but to be called a foul?How can Green's bad temper bear this kind of thing?

On the other hand, Antetokounmpo puffed up his tendons and shouted to the sky, as if he was demonstrating to the Warriors fans!
Seeing Antetokounmpo's arrogant appearance, Green immediately became angry.He swore that he would bring back this embarrassing scene!

Henson also jumped up with his bench players the moment Antetokounmpo made the dunk.

George and Antetokounmpo, the key goals scored by the super strikers under tremendous pressure, laid the foundation for the success of Henson's tactical execution.He thanked them, so he will fulfill his promise and lead them to victory!

At the free throw line, Antetokounmpo calmed down and took the free throw steadily.Antetokounmpo's free throws have improved a lot in recent years. Although it is not good, it will not become too much of a weakness.

Under tremendous pressure, Antetokounmpo made the free throw steadily.Seeing this, Fraser was very pleased.At least, he saved another player's shot.

So far, all the prerequisites for Henson to implement the follow-up plan have been met.

With only 10 points left, the Pacers' morale is high.Also, Draymond Green is extremely angry!

Going from 0 to 1 is difficult, but going from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 is easy.The same is true of Henson's tactics. With the expected beginning, the subsequent ones can be executed easily.

Next, Henson will slowly start to eat back the Warriors' advantage. After 48 minutes, the Warriors will find out.Not even God can help them!
