One Thousand One Hundred and Two. Start Grabbing the Nicknames of Elementary School Students
At 4 minutes and 11 seconds in the second quarter, the Warriors, who were trailing by 5 points, called a timeout. Klay Thompson, who had 9 points, 1 assist and 1 steal, put his hands together towards the players walking towards the Warriors bench before leaving the court, muttered a few words, and then walked back to the bench.
Klay Thompson seemed calm and even looked indifferent to the world, but his heart was actually in turmoil.
He made 3 three-pointers in a row! And he also helped Nash to launch a better offense and make his teammates' offense more active!
He also did a good job on the defensive end. Draymond Green once seemed to have a good sense but tended to pass the ball to Curry with a rough movement, which was intercepted by Klay Thompson. After switching defense with Jimmy Butler, he did a good job of chasing Curry.
Although Klay Thompson knew that it would be difficult for him to score next, he believed that he would play a strong role!
Unlike when he was still worried about whether he could gain a foothold, Klay Thompson's goal now is to become the strongest three-point shooter, and his biggest enemy is the player on the opposite side who is better at three-point shooting than him.
Originally, in 2010, Klay Thompson almost got in. His father's friends had been encouraging him to get in, but he chose to play another year in college. He had expected that the lockout might make 2011 a weak year for the draft, and he would have a greater chance of being selected in the lottery.
Klay Thompson was not very confident at first because his athletic ability was far inferior to his father.
But in his rookie season, he found that he also had first-class three-point shooting. After the rookie season, he had a 40.3% three-point shooting rate and an average of 17 three-pointers per game, which made him full of confidence.
More importantly, Klay Thompson didn't know whether Sun Ce saw his talent or encouraged him or just said it casually. Anyway, Sun Ce said that he would become the strongest shooter in the league after he made 9 three-pointers in a single game. Klay Thompson now wants to move towards this goal.
On Sun Ce's side, he took off his training suit and prepared to play the remaining minutes of the first half to maintain the lead.
33 to 29, in the past ten minutes, the two teams scored extremely exaggerated points, turning the score between the two teams into 45 to 40.
Of course, it was also related to the fact that the defense of other players besides Curry and Klay Thompson was not that good.
Fortunately, it was Klay Thompson who broke out on his side and scored three three-pointers in a row, which allowed Nash to lead the team to play with an advantage.
These few minutes also let Sun Ce know the difference between Klay Thompson and Jimmy Butler's single defense. Klay Thompson's single defense is mainly reflected in the pursuit defense, which is the best in their Grizzlies. If there is no pick-and-roll, he will hardly lose his position.
Jimmy Butler's defense without the ball is average, and he is more fierce than Paul George in defending singles with the ball. He is fierce, while Paul George is good at single defense and assist defense. He has strong comprehensive defensive strength, but his single item is not particularly strong.
But even Klay Thompson's pursuit defense could not completely limit Curry, and he could only cooperate with his teammates.
Curry, who played for 16 minutes, made 4 of 6 three-pointers, mainly 3 of 4 three-pointers in the past 10 minutes. The Grizzlies were all defending him, which allowed Harden and the Warriors to play a very beautiful fast break and withstand the crazy attack led by Nash.
Sun Ce knew why Curry was regarded as a player who changed the way of playing. Curry may never become a top ten player in history, but he is definitely one of the most special players in history. Just like Jordan opened the golden age of shooting guards, Curry also opened the golden age of pitchers.
Seeing Klay Thompson coming back, Sun Ce and Klay Thompson shook hands. Fortunately, his team took down Klay.
Coach Hollins replaced Nash, Yi Jianlian, Larry Sanders, and Jimmy Butler with Sun Ce, Prince, Gasol, and Paul George, leaving Klay Thompson, who had a strong containment force in the past six minutes.
After the substitution, Coach Hollins arranged a defensive play with Klay Thompson as the containment point, Sun Ce as the main attacker, Gasol, Prince, and Paul George receiving the ball and shooting, a big and four small defense.
Sun Ce knew that he had to use Klay Thompson's containment.
He was not stupid, but Coach Hollins just wanted to emphasize that Sun Ce was too unreliable.
The timeout was almost over, and Sun Ce walked onto the court. As soon as he stepped onto the court, the system prompt came!
"The curtain of the new era is slowly opening. There will be more and more role players who are proficient in a single skill or even have the top single skill. The all-round players with all-round skills but not refined will gradually be eliminated, and the pace will become faster and faster. The second series of events of the career event Xiao Bawang's report: The leader of the times is triggered."
"The first stage event of the leader of the times: Splash Brothers.
Goal 1: The total number of three-pointers scored by the host and Klay Thompson in this game is higher than the total number of three-pointers scored by Stephen Curry and James Harden.
Goal 2: Win this game.
Event reward: B skill: Splash Power Level 1.
Failure penalty: End this event, and in the future, those who get Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson star experience cards will lose the total skill: Splash Power."
"Fuck!"
Sun Ce was stunned when he saw the system prompt that suddenly appeared, and after seeing the event description, he was stunned for two seconds.
All-round skills but not refined, are you talking about Josh Smith? There are more and more top players in individual skills, and Sun Ce also knows this. In the future, many role players will get big contracts, while the salaries of all-round players will become lower and lower. Of course, I am referring to the kind that are good at all kinds of things but not in all areas.
But I didn't think so much before, and now I know that Curry's creation of the three-point era is the product of the right time, right place and right people. That is, Curry happened to be in this era, so there was the three-point era in memory.
Originally, Sun Ce was still wondering why the game with Curry did not trigger the series of events of "Dominating the New Generation". It turned out that it was placed in the career event!
I read the description of the event that was just triggered again. Is this to grab the nickname of the Splash Brothers?
Harden also has the talent to become a top three-point shooter
Sun Ce doesn't have to worry about Klay Thompson. He thinks he should worry about himself first. Klay Thompson is expected to be as good as Curry in three-pointers. He, Sun, wants to compete with Harden
Under great pressure!
But
"If my little brother Klay and I take away the nickname of the Splash Brothers, what nicknames will the elementary school brother and Xiao Dengdeng be called?"
It's exciting to think about it!
Going on the court, Sun Ce doesn't care about this for now. Anyway, he has to shoot more and throw when he has the opportunity. He also has to seize the opportunity to pass the ball when Klay Thompson runs out of position!
The key is to win! If you lose, you will have nothing!
Sun Ce is eager to get the combined attack skill of Water Splash!
