Barnes saw an opening inside, made a reverse run, and then cut in, shaking off Zeng Xingyang and gaining half a body position to get through.
Green made a bounce pass to Barnes, who caught the ball and took a step to fly.
If it were anyone else, they might have given up defending after losing half a body position.
But Zeng Xingyang didn't; he gritted his teeth and almost launched into the air along with Barnes.
Zeng Xingyang's extra-long wingspan gave him an advantage. Barnes, worried about being blocked, was disturbed on the layup, and the shot was off.
The rebound was controlled by Jokic.
Jokic and Nelson coordinated and passed half-court.
The Warriors' defense indeed changed; Barnes stuck close to Zeng Xingyang, then Green and Thompson also approached Zeng Xingyang. Every time he received the ball, he would be surrounded.
Jokic held the ball at the right side of the free-throw line and decisively initiated a post-up play when he saw this.
Izzy felt enormous pressure.
