Chapter 427 Kick the Scumbag's Egg
Chapter 427 Kick the Scumbag's Egg
The Clippers took the lead, but the Warriors remained calm, especially their head coach Steve Kerr, who seemed like an outsider. He certainly had the right to be confident, with a roster full of All-Stars, including two MVPs, and the opposing team only having one truly effective player. Even in a difficult situation, he was confident he could turn things around.
So the "death lineup" didn't materialize; the rotation continued as usual. Several big men played, including McGee and David West, while the second unit was still primarily driven by Iguodala and Livingston, paired with Green and Klay.
The Clippers' second unit is driven by the pick-and-roll duo of Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell, along with several role players.
At the end of the first quarter, the Clippers led by one point, 29-28.
Jia Fei scored 20 points, grabbed 3 rebounds, dished out 1 assist, and made 1 steal in the first quarter, delivering an explosive performance. Opponents primarily guarded him one-on-one, so he didn't have many assists. A significant reason for his low assist count was that his teammates were struggling with their shots.
Lou Williams and Harrell played very well, so Coach Li let Jia Fei rest a little longer in the second quarter.
In the second quarter, the Warriors clearly increased their defensive intensity, making it more difficult for the Clippers to score, and even Jia Fei's scoring efficiency dropped. Fortunately, the Clippers' defense remained solid, and the two sides engaged in a back-and-forth battle.
At halftime, the Clippers led 57-56, still by one point.
Jia Fei scored 26 points, grabbed 6 rebounds, dished out 2 assists, and made 1 steal in the first half, continuing his outstanding performance.
Halftime. Tencent Studio.
"Mr. Yang, the Clippers were leading by 1 point in the first half. Many people must have been surprised by this result!" Wang Meng said.
Yang Yi twirled his pen and said, "I was right, wasn't I? Jia Fei should be the one attacking. Forget about getting the teammates involved; if your teammates don't have the ability, you can't carry them either. So it's better for him to attack himself! The problem now is that no one can stop Jia Fei one-on-one. Even if you have four iron chains, you really can't stop him one-on-one. So when the Warriors start using their small-ball lineup, when they start double-teaming Jia Fei, and when they start targeting DeAndre Jordan, then the game will really be a real battle."
The third quarter began quickly. Both teams fielded their starting lineups, with Wesley Johnson still playing for the Clippers.
The Warriors have possession of the ball, and Curry dribbles it over.
Whether leading or trailing, you rarely see any tension on Curry's face. He's always chewing on his mouthguard, looking somewhat nonchalant, and his adorable expressions seem out of place for his age. Can you believe he's actually the same age as DeAndre Jordan?
P.S.: DeAndre Jordan: "Do I look that old?"
Green came up to set a screen, it was a classic play.
The Clippers continued to switch on defense.
Curry one-on-one with Harris, executing a series of crossovers and behind-the-back passes, then suddenly passing the ball behind his back to Klay on the other side!
The pass was somewhat careless, but Jia Fei anticipated it perfectly, swerved out, and made a steal!
Jia Fei's Clippers charge into the frontcourt, creating a 2-on-1 situation!
Curry was guarding two opponents, essentially giving up on defense!
Jia Fei landed a ground shot, sending Harris, who was quickly swooping down on the other side, to the ground!
Harrison catches the ball and finishes with a powerful one-handed dunk!
59-56, the Clippers scored first in the second half!
Curry dribbles the ball over and passes it to Durant!
Durant dribbled the ball and faced off against Wesley Johnson one-on-one, but his pull-up mid-range jumper missed!
DeAndre Jordan grabbed the rebound and passed it to Jia Fei.
Jia Fei brought the ball over, set a screen with DeAndre Jordan, and drove in with a "Qin King Around the Pillar" move. In mid-air, he faked a shot and passed the ball to DeAndre Jordan who was cutting down!
DeAndre Jordan caught the ball and dunked it!
61:56, the Clippers have extended their lead to 5 points!
The Warriors fans in the arena were getting restless. Was Kerr overdoing it? What happened to the "Death Lineup"? Why was that useless guy Zaza on the court? What was his purpose? It felt like he was just there to fill roster spots. They'd be better off letting McGee play; at least McGee was better at finishing plays.
Kerr remained unmoved on the sidelines, neither taking a timeout nor even standing up.
Curry dribbled the ball over and passed it to Green.
Green played a high post pass and suddenly bounced the ball to the inside player, Zha Zha!
Zaza received the ball, faked out DeAndre Jordan, and attempted a one-handed dunk!
But... Jia Fei suddenly appeared and delivered a crushing blow to him!
Moreover, the ball hit Durant's slender calf and went out of bounds, and it was a frontcourt ball!
Zha Zha looked a little embarrassed, then his eyes shot out a vicious look. He was not someone who would let his opponent bully him. He had his own methods!
Beverley dribbled the ball over and passed it to Jia Fei.
Jia Fei dribbled the ball and ran a pick-and-roll with DeAndre Jordan, continuing his tactical maneuvering around the opponent.
He dribbled in, jumped to try and find DeAndre Jordan, and suddenly had a bad feeling. He saw that annoying face of Zaza Paco's, and the image of the expressionless man flashed into his mind. Fortunately, his hang time was strong, allowing him to adjust. Sure enough, the opponent's foot appeared "at just the right time"!
Jia Fei was furious. On a whim, he leaned back in mid-air, threw the ball, and then kicked it directly into the groin of the scumbag!
Although it wasn't very powerful, a man's genitals are extremely vulnerable; even a slight touch would hurt, let alone a kick. Sure enough, the scumbag immediately curled up like a boiled shrimp, naturally retracting his black foot!
"Beep beep beep—" The referee's whistle blew, immediately stopping the game!
Jia Fei fell to the ground, but was unharmed.
Beverly immediately came over and helped him up.
Green was furious. How dare they commit such a heinous act on our turf? They've gone too far! He immediately rushed over, clearly determined to stand up for his teammate, Zaza.
Almost simultaneously, Art Mayork, who was on the bench, rushed over, and before Green could even touch Jia Fei, the two were already tangled up together.
The atmosphere immediately became tense, the referee intervened, and Art Mayork and Green got into a fight, creating a chaotic scene.
Durant berated Jia Fei: "You're so dirty, you actually kicked that piece of trash's balls!"
Beverley immediately retorted: "Where were you when your trash was standing on his toes looking cute?"
"That was an accident, Zaza didn't know it would be that serious!" Durant explained for Zaza.
"Then it's no accident that you defected to the enemy, joining the team that defeated you!" Jia Fei retorted.
"If you're so capable, let's go online and have a one-on-two battle!" Durant, unable to out-argue them, immediately unleashed his ultimate move.
The two black men were separated, and Green and Art Mayork exchanged greetings about each other's families. Anyone who didn't know better would think they had some kind of feud!
The fans at the stadium booed Jia Fei and his teammates. No matter how dirty he was, in the eyes of the home fans, he was still one of their own.
The referee went to review the video replay. It all happened so fast that the referee didn't know why Jia Fei suddenly kicked Zha Zha in the groin.
Did that jerk do something shameful? After all, he has a criminal record, and Kawaii is currently in a wheelchair because of him.
