The interesting 50-point battle begins.

Whichever team scores 50 points first will win.

This cumulative point system, similar to that of tennis and table tennis, is different from ordinary basketball games in that the success rate becomes particularly important.

Anyway, time is unlimited, so don’t worry if you are temporarily behind, just hold on tight, improve your offensive success rate, and be the first to score 50 points.

From this point of view, Tyronn Lue's selection is more targeted. He got Zach Randolph, a key low-post offensive point.

In order to choose Curry as his first choice, Kerr gave Tyronn Lue the opportunity to play Harden and Randolph, so the Tyronn Lue team has a slight advantage in the lineup.

Kerr's advantage is naturally his tactical arrangement. The internal and external combination of Gasol and Curry has always been his ideal combination.

Different from the traditional one-inside-one-outside combination, in Cole's idea, Gasol's high-post support ability and Curry's off-ball movement ability can be perfectly combined.

Therefore, their internal and external matching is Gasol outside and Curry inside.

If he becomes the head coach, he will also focus on developing Gasol's mid- and long-range shooting abilities.

This will give this combination a more comprehensive offense with no blind spots. Coupled with the three-pointers of wing Paul George, Ricky Davis, and Matt Bonner, this completely spaced lineup will impact the entire league.

Every team's defensive line.

At the beginning of the game, Gasol, who succeeded in jumping the ball, passed the ball to Curry, starting the Cole team's first offense.

Sure enough, it was a formation with all-round space. Gasol and Curry in the high post were in continuous pick-and-rolls, and Curry suddenly passed the ball straight to the basket.

Paul George caught the ball and got rid of Leonard's defense and scored the first point of the game with a layup.

For a player like Curry, the greater the space, the greater his room for performance.

It would be a waste of his ability to let him stop passing the ball, catch the ball, break through, and make three-pointers like a traditional defender.

Cole's team took the lead, while Tyronn Lue's team did not arrange any tactics. Anyway, everyone played with the feeling and tacit understanding of usual training.

Randolph asked for the ball in the low post, Harden passed the ball to Randolph, and Gasol guarded Fatty Lan one-on-one.

The two are good partners in competitions, and they often face off one-on-one during training.

Randolph is 2.06cm tall and plays power forward, but in actual games, opponents often use big centers with high tonnage to defend him.

So in fact, Randolph is a master of small attacks and often faces defenders who are taller than himself.

Randolph turned around and walked to the baseline, using his strong hips to deflect Gasol's bottom-side layup and score two points.

The ball was played very solidly and the two sides drew a draw.

Cole's team quickly served from the backcourt, and Curry advanced to the frontcourt.

The player on Tyronn Lue's team defending Curry is Fisher.

This was Lu's failure when selecting players.

He could definitely use a younger Dragic.

But out of conservative thinking, he still used Fisher, who was older and more experienced.

But Fisher's defense couldn't keep up with Curry's pace. Curry ran in front and Fisher chased behind.

Other players had to come over to cover up the defense. Curry broke through from the left to near the three-second zone, and Leonard came over to help defend.

Curry passed the ball to Ricky Davis who cut through the middle.

Davis caught the ball and went to the basket for a left-hand layup, scoring two more points.

Tyronn Lue's team was cut off twice in a row, and there was obviously a problem with the interior defense.

There is only one timeout and two substitutions during the game.

Tyronn Lue was thinking about when to make good use of this only timeout opportunity.

Cole's passing and cutting combination is indeed sharp, and Curry's containment ability and Gasol's coping ability perfectly match.

On the defensive end, Cole's team is also more energetic, with Ricky Davis pestering Harden, Curry staying on Fisher, and Gasol guarding Randolph.

Cole's team obviously had an advantage in the matchup. Under Cole's guidance, Paul George actively participated in the defense and assisted Gasol in defending the inside.

He successfully interfered with Harden's layup, then grabbed the backboard, passed the ball to Curry, and launched a quick counterattack.

Curry dribbled the ball steadily and quickly across the half court. His core was as hard as steel, and the ball in his hands was not affected at all when faced with defensive interference.

He once again got rid of Fisher, broke through the basket from the left, dribbled the ball under his hips facing Milicic's defense, and suddenly stopped and shot a jump shot.

Two point hit!

Curry dominated the game in the beginning.

Cole's team leads 6:2, and Tyronn Lue's team has fallen into a disadvantage.

Tyronn Lue's team's offense still relies on Randolph, who holds the ball in the corner and hits Gasol facing the basket.

He used his speed to get past Gasol and rushed to the basket. Facing George's defense, he made a layup and caused George to foul.

The referee who blew the whistle was assistant coach Lucas, and he could still understand some of Min Congda's intentions.

Standing on the free throw line, Randolph made two free throws.

Does Tyronn Lue want to use the substitution opportunity to replace Fisher?

It's really hard for Fisher to defend Curry. If Curry is allowed to play like this, the game will definitely be lost.

But Fisher and Tyronn Lue were former teammates, and Lue was Fisher's substitute.

The two defeated Allen Iverson in the 2001 Finals together.

For an old teammate, if he were to be replaced at the beginning of the game, wouldn't it be too refuting the old fish's face?

Tyronn Lue hesitated, did not make any personnel changes, and continued to keep Fisher on the court.

When Min Congda saw this scene, he thought that Tyronn Lue's on-the-spot ability was not good enough.

Fisher, who has old arms and legs, is going to be walked by Curry at the beginning, and you still can't replace him with Dragic.

I take it you don’t want to win anymore?

It’s good if you don’t want to win. The worse your level is, the better.

Min Congda was very satisfied with Tyronn Lue's slow on-the-spot management.

But he can't really watch Tyronn Lue lose the game.

Even if he loses, he can't lose too badly, otherwise there will be no reason for him to squeeze out Cole.

Now, Min Congda can only hope that Tyronn Lue will have a chance to read the note he handed him.

As the game continued, Curry faced Fisher too easily. After a simple pick-and-roll, he hit a three-pointer!

This is simply unsolvable for the defender. They can screen with a single block and quickly shoot a three-pointer when they are in the gap. How to defend?

Min Congda gave a slight wink to Lucas, who was enforcing the law on the sidelines, and Lucas understood.

Then, Harden broke into the three-second zone with the help of a screen, and made an easy layup by sliding into the basket.

Curry also wanted to follow the same pattern and then single block to find space to shoot, but the referee blew the whistle and blew Gasol's mobile screen.

Mobile screens are actually common in the league. Whether they are called or not depends purely on the referee's standards.

Even if the referee wants to let you go, it won't matter if you move the Great Wall.

If the referee wants to target you, it is a violation for you to move your feet a little further.

With a little help from the referee, Tyronn Lue's team took a breather and slightly caught up with the rhythm of Cole's team.

However, the offensive efficiency of Team Cole is obviously higher than that of Team Tyronn Lue. The score reached 30:24. Team Cole has already scored 30 points!

Score another 20 points and the game is over and Team Cole is about to win.

At this time, Milicic accidentally knocked down George while defending on the court, and George fell to the ground.

Milicic stepped forward to check, and everyone gathered around to see if George was dead.

Tyronn Lue had the opportunity to take out the note that Min Congda handed to him when shaking hands from his pocket, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it secretly.

After reading the three suggestions above, Tyronn Lue immediately put the note back into his pocket, and then rushed to Lucas and said: "I called a timeout! Timeout, let our players take a rest."
