Chapter 370
Chapter 370
Since then, the Warriors' offensive firepower has not diminished at all. Even if the new Suns coach Cotton Fitzsimmons called a timeout, he still could not interrupt the Warriors' offense.
Different from last season, this season, the Warriors' offense is more initiated from the outside, from the outside to the inside, and inside, Malone is under much less defensive pressure, and puts more energy on defense and rebound protection. , the function is a bit similar to Rodman, but at this point, Rodman has done better, and he is already better than blue.
It has to be said that in the new season, Rodman has improved again, both defense and rebounding have improved significantly compared to last season.
It is hard to imagine that this third-year rookie is already 27 years old, and he can continue to evolve like a young man in his early 20s.
The Warriors beat the Suns 11:0 at the start, until Chambers hit a mid-range shot, which allowed the Suns to break the scoring drought.
Before that, Chambers had already missed two shots.
Compared with Chambers, other players performed worse. Garland made zero shots, Marley made zero shots, and Gilliam made zero shots.
Obviously, this new Suns team still lacks of adaptation. Facing such a powerful opponent in the first game of the season, all the problems were exposed.
Malone played for about 6 minutes in the first quarter before being replaced. After another 2 minutes, the Warriors' other starters were also replaced one after another.
At this time, the difference is about 8 points.
When it was the Warriors' turn to come off the bench, the Warriors' bench was still vigorous, facing the mixed lineup of the Suns, they still played impressively.
Plath and Hornacek, who entered the third grade, are quite mature in terms of handling the ball and grasping opportunities. With them as the core, together with Lewis and Duckworth who can attack and defend well, and The high fortress Schramf makes the Warriors' bench lineup not weaker than the mixed lineup of the Suns led by Chambers.
In this way, by the end of the first quarter, the Warriors had already led the Suns by 34 points at 20:14.
Throughout the first quarter, Chambers played extremely hard. Out of the team's 20 points, he scored 8 points alone, and almost played the entire first quarter, but the game did not improve at all, and the point difference became wider and wider.
It has to be said that the Warriors are really the sufferer of Chambers.
In the past two years of the playoffs, Chambers let the Warriors eliminate him. This year, he changed teams and met the Warriors again in the first game. Chambers couldn't help doubting his decision.
In the second quarter, the Warriors' defense slackened, which led to an increase in the Suns' shooting percentage. The two teams played back and forth, but what was embarrassing at this time was that Chambers was sitting on the bench.
The Warriors' starting starts came back about halfway through the second quarter. Most of the Warriors' starting starts took a break of more than 10 minutes, and Malone even took a rest of as much as 12 minutes.
This also led to the starting of the Warriors who returned to the court, and their state was almost exhausted.
The Suns also took this opportunity to fight back again, narrowing the point difference to 8 points at one point.
Faced with such a situation, Nelson hurriedly called a timeout and scolded the players. Is it true that the regular season is a preseason?
After returning from the timeout, the Warriors started the game, and their state recovered. Li Weisi, like a magic needle in the sea, scored 5 points in two consecutive rounds of three-pointers and throws, helping the team to expand the point difference to double digits again.
After stabilizing the morale of the army, Li Weisi's goal also seemed to sound the horn of offense. Mullin, Richmond and Malone all scored successively, and the Warriors' offense was back on track.
Even Rodman, in a fast break, received a through pass from Mullin and dunked successfully.
In this way, before the end of the first half, the Warriors once again played a wave of 3:16 offensive climax in just over 2 minutes, allowing the team to take a 67:49 half-time lead before the end of the half. The sun is as much as 18 points.
In this way, the Suns were completely fooled by the Warriors, which directly made the game lose suspense and turned the entire second half into garbage time.
Entering the second half, the Suns also tried to recover the score, but the effect was not obvious. They still couldn't prevent the Warriors' crazy offense. As a result, when the Warriors replaced the starters in the second half of the third quarter, the point difference had already widened to 24 points.
After more than 5 minutes in the fourth quarter of the game, the Suns coach Fitzsimmons saw that there was no hope of chasing points, and finally replaced all the starters and completely surrendered.
In the end, the whole game was fixed at 104:127. The Warriors beat the Suns at home and got a good start to the season.
In this campaign, 8 Warriors scored in double figures, and all 12 players scored in the game.
Among them, Li Weisi, who scored the highest score, only scored 18 points and 11 assists, and his playing time was only 23 minutes.
In addition, Mullin had 17 points, Richmond had 14 points, Malone had 12 points and 8 rebounds, Price had 11 points, Hornacek had 14 points, Duckworth had 12 points, and Schramf had 12 points. .
However, even though the Warriors beat the Suns, it did not cause too much disturbance. After all, there were as many as 10 games today, and everyone's impression of the Suns was still on the weak team, so not many people paid attention.
But the back-to-back battles on the second day attracted much more attention than this game, because the opponent in this game was the Los Angeles Lakers.
Blinken came home after the first quarter of the Warriors. Originally, he wanted to turn on the TV as soon as he got home, but he didn't expect that his stepfather Pisa was also at home.
Stepfather Pisa, a Jew, was imprisoned in Auschwitz concentration camp when he was a child, and was the youngest survivor when he was rescued.
After he came out, his family members were all dead, and he lived on petty theft. It was not until a distant relative of the family found him and offered him to study, that his life was on the right track, and he studied all the way until he won a Harvard scholarship and passed the Juris Doctorate.
Later, President Kennedy hired him as a consultant, and since then he entered the upper class of the United States. Later, Kennedy was assassinated, and he changed his career to become a lawyer.
Later, he met Blinken's mother at a ball in Paris, and married her two years later. Like Li Weisi's stepfather, Antoine, he loved Blinken, a son who bought one and got one free, as if he was his own. .
"Father, why are you here?" Blinken asked in surprise.
"I've heard about Dukaski, and I didn't expect this guy to be an idiot. It's really embarrassing for you." Pisa apologized to his son.
"It's okay, Father, it's not your fault!"
"The White House is temporarily closed, have you thought about what to do next?" Pisa asked again.
"Not...not yet!" Blinken said shyly.
"Well, let me introduce you to work in a law firm. This law firm in New York is good. You can work there for a few years!" Pizza took out a business card and handed it to Blinken.
Blinken took the business card and took a closer look, "Gary A. Tomei?"
"Yes, although he is not well-known, it was introduced by Frank in our Jewish circle in the United States, so it should be good." Pisa said kindly.
"Frank? The boss of the Warriors?" Blinken suddenly remembered something.
"Well, he seems to have a team. I don't know the specifics. After all, I am a fan of Paris Saint-Germain!"
Hearing this, Blinken suddenly became interested in this job that had no hope of applying.
