Chapter 280 The momentum of the defending champion

Chapter 280 The momentum of the defending champion

A perfect tactical coordination.

Thompson turned around desperately and threw back.

Lowry made an open three-pointer.

"Shh."

The ball is in!

The Raptors' bench all jumped up excitedly, waving the towel vigorously and celebrating.

In the last 20 seconds, the Raptors led the Warriors by 2 points.

The palms of the fans at the scene were sweating.

Kerr called for the Warriors' final timeout.

The time is less than 24 seconds, so the Warriors' offense is very critical.

What the Warriors have to do now is to consume time to the last second to complete the lore.

Athletes from both sides returned to the field, and after Curry dribbled the ball across halftime, he kept controlling the rhythm at the top of the arc.

As time passed, the Raptors' defense expanded widely.

Nurse chose a more conservative defensive strategy.

The Raptors would rather let the Warriors get two points and drag the game into overtime than give the Warriors a three-point lore.

With the last 16 seconds of the game, Chasing Dream Green came to the top of the arc to get the ball.

This is the most common three-point tactic for the Warriors. It seems that Cole's tactic for the players just now is to play three-pointers.

Nurse finally got it right once. The Raptors' defense is now wide open, and it's hard for the Warriors to take three-pointers.

Next, the Warriors will continue to ask for three points, or it is safer to play two points.

Durant wanted to come out to catch the ball, but Ge Feng stuck so hard that Durant had no chance to catch the ball at all.

Ge Feng has done such a good job of stealing the pass this season, and Green dare not take the risk to hand the ball to Durant.

Durant ran out, and Ge Feng followed suit.

Ge Feng's footsteps are more flexible. No matter how Durant uses fake moves to catch the ball, Ge Feng can always appear in the middle of the connection between Durant and Green.

Green finally handed the ball to Curry.

Curry made 6 three-pointers this time, and his state is better than Durant.

It is a pity that Curry has missed 9 consecutive lore.

This is Curry's tenth lore, can he make it?

With a quick shot, Curry took the ball, took a step sideways, and directly opened his hands to throw.

Before the ball passed the highest point, the indicator light for the end of the game came on.

"boom."

The fans hugged their heads and wailed, and Curry took out the braces and chewed them in great disappointment.

"Curry's lore was missed."

"What's wrong with Curry? His three-pointer is so strong, why can't he make the lore shot."

"Damn it, we actually lost to the Raptors at home! You know, this Raptors team doesn't have a ruthless character like Leonard!"

"Okay, let's take a closer look, it's just an ordinary regular season."

"Wait until the playoffs, that's when the Warriors really play."

Curry missed the lore again, which was a big blow to the fans at the scene.

But fans are willing to continue to believe in Curry. After all, the Warriors have won the league's first record this year, and they lost a game to the Raptors, and there is nothing they can't beat.

The Raptors team was extremely excited after defeating the Warriors in an away game.

This is the momentum that the defending champion should have.

On the plane back to Toronto, the players were clearly in a good mood.

It is very rare for everyone not to do their own things on the plane, but to get together to exchange information about the game.

Ge Feng defeated the thriving Warriors in his first command game, which gave the Raptors players great confidence.

At the end of the game, the players looked at Ge Feng with a lot of respect.

Through this game, many team veterans will no longer regard Ge Feng as a younger brother with great potential. They now regard Ge Feng as the official dragon king of the Raptors.

Everyone chatted with each other, but Ge Feng was reading the book seriously and didn't participate in the discussion much.

Van Vleet leaned over curiously.

"Ge Feng, what book do you read every time you fly?"

Ge Feng closed the book and threw it to Van Vleet with a smile.

Van Vleet received the book and opened it, feeling dazzled immediately.

"No way, you can read books like referee standards and precautions?"

Van Vleet was stunned when he saw that the book Ge Feng was reading was actually the referee's penalty standard.

Siakam booed: "Van Jordan, this is why you don't understand? Ge Feng is preparing for his livelihood after retirement. Ge Feng will be the greatest referee in the league in the future."

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of laughter from the plane.

Ge Feng is very helpless, although his status in the team has been recognized by most of his teammates.

But in fact, the daily relationship between teammates and Ge Feng has not changed much because Ge Feng became the boss.

On the contrary, ever since Ge Feng became the core player, his teammates have made more and more jokes about him.

They must be jealous that I am so good looking and play so well.Ge Feng thought stinkingly.

When everyone's laughter gradually stopped, Ge Feng said seriously: "Actually, I read this book because of Harden.

Harden is best at using the referee's whistle-blowing standards to create opportunities for himself to get to the free throw line.

You guys remember, our first game against the Rockets this season, Harden got 26 free throws from the referees all by himself.

26 free throws, brothers, the rhythm of our three-game winning streak was torn apart by Harden, I can't forget this grudge. "

The teammates invariably thought about the game at the beginning of the new season. After losing two games in a row, the Raptors managed to win a wave of three consecutive victories, but they were cheated by Harden of 26 free throws at their home court.

In that game, Harden scored a large quasi-triple double with 53 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists on the Raptors.

Even so far in the season, few players have scored as high as 53 points in away games like Harden.

The Raptors, who got into foul trouble, were more or less irritable, so in the next game, the Raptors fell into a vicious circle.

In less than a month, the Raptors will usher in the second contest with the Rockets this season.

Ge Feng didn't want to fall into Peng Cideng's hands again.

Nas gave Ge Feng a thumbs up with great satisfaction. He likes players like Ge Feng the most. Ge Feng knows what he needs to do without much teaching.

Ge Feng's future is destined to be extraordinary. As the head coach, Nas is the most convinced of this.

Before the game against the Rockets, the Raptors still have two home games and seven away games to play.

When the players returned to Toronto, the first home game they had to play was against the Dallas Mavericks.

Since Nowitzki announced his retirement, the Lone Ranger this season has completely entered the reconstruction.

The Lone Ranger's record this season ranks second to last in the West, only slightly better than the poor Suns.

This little gap is still because the Lone Ranger has two very good rookies, Doncic and Porzingis, to support the facade.

The Raptors are playing against the Lone Ranger at home. If nothing else, they can easily win.

Nowitzki is now willing to play as a substitute in the Lone Ranger.
