NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal: Chapter 917 Winning the Warriors, hot discussion after the game

70:60!

After Carter completed the 180-degree dunk, the Warriors were already 10 points behind the Trail Blazers.

Cole called a timeout without hesitation. At the beginning, the Warriors were ready to fight to the end, but unexpectedly, the situation on the court became so tragic.

Barnes' injury cast a shadow over the entire Warriors team, and now Vince Carter, a veteran of the Trail Blazers who is nearly 40 years old, has also exploded, scoring five points in a row in less than a minute and contributing A blood cap.

Listening to the shouts from the arena, Cole felt confused and...a little bit of fear for the first time.

Yes, you heard that right, fear!

As the coach of a top team, Steve Kerr was afraid of the strength of another team.

Thinking of this, he has already begun to not have much expectation for this game, especially seeing the same confusion on the faces of the Warriors fans around him, his heart sinks deeper and deeper.

The timeout ended with no changes to the lineup and players from both sides returned to the field.

Watching the main players play one by one, Cole clenched his fists and sat back on the bench. He had long lost the momentum of "we will win this round of the series" during the mobilization before the game.

Carter's wonderful performance forced the Warriors to place some defensive support on the outside. In this way, Wang Zelin and Aldridge on the inside were released on the offensive end and played more easily.

At the same time, the balance of victory was completely tilted.

At the 6th minute of the third quarter, the score of the two teams became 84:69. After the first half, the Blazers' lead expanded to 15 points.

Curry and Thompson's outside touch gradually tends to be mediocre. After all, the Warriors basically focus on the death five in this round of the series, which consumes a lot of physical energy for the main players.

Especially in this round of the series, Curry, whose average playing time is as high as 42 minutes per game, is not known for his physical abilities after all, and it is enough to hit the tiebreaker.

But even so, of the 11 points the Warriors struggled to score in the second half, 9 of them had a direct or indirect causal relationship with Curry.

A three-pointer, a mid-range shot and two assists, Curry's influence on the Warriors can be said to involve all aspects.

But even so, this game has gradually gone further and further away for the Warriors.

As for the Blazers, they have an absolute advantage in rebounding. They not only shot high, but also achieved good efficiency. 19 points in the half quarter is the best proof!

Entering the second half of the quarter, the Blazers' three points and three points went hand in hand, making the Warriors hard to defend. After one quarter, 97:77, the Blazers' lead was as high as 20 points!

Barkley shook his head and sighed: "This quarter was too hurt for the Warriors. The Trail Blazers not only played their main force steadily, but suddenly many players broke out on the bench, making it even more difficult for the Warriors, who were already full of injuries, to defend! "

Kenny Smith said: "The only way for the Warriors to break the game is to play offense. Unfortunately, they only scored 19 points on the Blazers in the third quarter. On the other hand, the Blazers scored 32 points crazy. The gap between the two teams in direct competition in this quarter is too great."

"Yes," O'Neal said with certainty, "Perhaps, the Trail Blazers can celebrate in advance. They will reach the Finals for three consecutive years!"

"I seem to have seen the birth of a great dynasty!" Miller said.

In front of the Warriors bench, Cole bowed and said to Curry and others: "I think the opponent will definitely launch a more violent attack. We have no retreat at all, we can only attack against attack."

"I know that everyone is exhausted at the moment, but we must not give up. The Blazers will definitely send their main force to fight us in the last quarter, and their main force also has physical problems. Now, when it comes to the competition of will, I don't think we will lose to them!"

Curry didn't play in the whole game, and so did Thompson and Iguodala. The murderous faces were a little pale at the moment, but the Warriors still persisted.

Because the desire for a championship is still supporting them!

"Even if we are 20 points behind, no one can guarantee that he will be the winner until the last moment!" Cole growled in a low voice.

"Brothers, let us overturn the rule of the pioneers together!"

At the critical moment, Iguodala, the boss of the Warriors locker room, stood up, looked at the Trail Blazers, and shouted loudly.

"Fuck the pioneers!"

The Warriors bench roared loudly.

"Damn the warrior!"

There was a lot of movement on the other side. At this time, Wang Zelin didn't want to give the warrior a chance to rekindle his fighting spirit, so he immediately stood up and roared.

"Fuck the Warriors! Fuck the Warriors! Fuck the Warriors..."

Soon, the shouts of the entire arena completely drowned out the voices of the Warriors.

This is one of the charms of the home court!

The final quarter begins.

The Blazers attacked first, and as soon as Wang Zelin entered the basket, Iguodala and BoGt posted up, and then Thompson was also near the left-wing paint area, and he could implement a three-person double-team at any time.

Cole believes that Wang Zelin's offensive threat is always the biggest one, and other Blazers players do not have his destructive power, so at this time, the Warriors still dare not lower their defensive pressure on Wang Zelin!

He would even rather leave others open than give Wang Zelin an easy chance to score.

This is Lillard's pass, and Barton didn't shoot the ball on the three-point line.

"Shua!"

Two points hit.

The Warriors attacked, Curry singled Lillard, and everyone else, including Thompson, poured into the paint.

In the critical fourth quarter, in order to limit Wang Zelin's movement in the paint area and grab rebounds, the Warriors played a sea of ​​people in the paint area.

Obviously, when it comes to superstars playing alone, it is impossible for Curry to pass on.

In a one-on-one duel, Curry took a step back and hit a three-pointer after shaking the space.

80:99, the difference between the two sides narrowed to 19 points

The Blazers attack.

This time Barton got an open shot again, but missed.

The Warriors implemented a three-and-one under the basket. Wang Zelin failed to grab the offensive rebound. Thompson caught it and passed it to Curry. The Warriors attacked.

"The Warriors advanced very fast, they played a fast break!" Barkley shouted at this time.

Thompson, Iguodala, and Livingston ran with all their strength, and BoGt fell to the end alone, and he couldn't run anymore.

For the Trail Blazers, Lillard kept up with Curry, Aldridge kept up with Livingston, Barton didn't keep up with Thompson, and Connett Lee kept up with Iguodala, but his body is not behind. The latter is burly and can't stop the latter's fast sprint at all.

Wang Zelin returned to defense from the middle, went straight to the basket, and followed Iguodala.

At this time, Thompson received the ball from Curry and decisively chose to grab a three-pointer. He missed it. Iguodala took the lead in taking off, grabbed the rebound and then took the second jump to attack.

There is a saying that the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows.

As soon as his praying mantis took off, a squirrel flew out behind him and pinned his ball to the backboard with a slap.

The one who blocked the shot was none other than Wang Zelin!

"Blocked! An aerial interception from Wang, this is his sixth blocked shot in this game!" O'Neill said excitedly.

"The Blazers hit back, Lillard got the ball, he was quick..."

In the frontcourt, my God, he didn't choose to rush to the basket to end, but chose a three-pointer, can he make it..."

"It's a hit, a three-pointer!"

Miller shouted excitedly, and there were bursts of sound in the arena.

102:80!

The despair in the eyes of the Warriors players is even stronger.

Cole had no passion for a long time at this time, and Lillard was unmoved after scoring a goal. He just sat quietly in his position and watched the scene in front of him.

He originally expected the Warriors to enter the final quarter and quickly recover some points by relying on the momentum of breaking the boat, but the fact is that the points are poor. Instead of approaching, they were pulled away again!

At this moment, he felt as if he had been stabbed with a knife, bleeding from the pain, and he wanted to kill a handful of styptic powder but mistakenly grabbed a handful of salt.

It's sour, you can imagine!

There is no so-called hope and dawn in his heart anymore, what is just full of despair!

However, Curry still did not intend to give up. He joined hands with Thompson to lead the Warriors to launch a counterattack and launched a wave of three-point shots.

Not to mention, there were mistakes, and under Wang Zelin's terrifying pressure, the two of them unexpectedly exploded with amazing energy.

Especially Curry, the shot point is getting farther and farther away from the three-point line. The most exaggerated is a super long three-pointer hit in the Logo area in the 8th minute of the final quarter.

The two of them led the team to narrow the score to less than 15 points, which shocked the home fans.

Unfortunately, due to the large difference at the end of the third quarter, and the outbreak of Curry and Thompson was a bit late.

In addition, Wang Zelin is as stable as Mount Tai under the basket, unmoved by the outside world. Even if Curry hits amazing three-pointers one after another, he can still give what he asks in the penalty area and score easily.

Relying on his stable performance, the Blazers ruined Splash's last hope of chasing points.

Two minutes before the end, Cole took the initiative to replace the main players and announced his surrender in advance.

Curry and Thompson sat off the court, the former chewing his braces frantically, and the latter staring blankly at the scoreboard.

Obviously, they lost their temper after losing this game!

The score was finally fixed at 128:112.

The Trail Blazers team scored 31 points in the last quarter, while the Warriors scored 35 points with Splash's super-level performance. The performance in the last quarter overwhelmed the Blazers.

However, the gap behind was so big that Splash tried his best and couldn't fill it up. In the end, the Blazers beat the Warriors at home and won the battle of the century!

The series between the two sides was officially fixed at 4 to 3. Wang Zelin, who encountered the tiebreaker for the first time in his playoff career, succeeded in having the last laugh.

Curry and Thompson scored 70+ in empty space!

The Trail Blazers team scored in double figures with 7 players. Wang Zelin played 45 minutes "injured" tonight, scored 25 points in the half, scored 33 points in three quarters, and scored 48 points, 20 rebounds and 8 rebounds after the game. A large double-double with blocks, 6 assists and 3 steals!

The result of this game was too different from what the fans predicted before the game. After the game, there were also heated discussions on social media and in the media.

Everyone originally thought that this should be an extremely anxious game, but unexpectedly, from the beginning to the end, the main theme of a normal game is always one-sided!

But this does not mean that the fans think this game is too easy, on the contrary, in their hearts, this game is worthy of the praise of "Battle of the Century"!

After all, this game contributed many wonderful shots, enough to make it a rare classic battle in NBA history.

"Huh! It's finally over, this round of the series is full of various complicated factors!"

"Yeah, before the Western Conference Finals, who would have thought that the Warriors and Trail Blazers would fight until Game 7? Who would have thought that this round of the series could be so cruel."

"That's right, who would have thought that the Warriors would lose so badly in this game, I can only say that my dominance is too strong!"

"48+20! There are 8 blocks and 6 assists, which is crazy!"

"It's a pity, the Warriors were only a little bit close to overthrowing the Trail Blazers, and then opened the prelude to their new era... It's a pity, Wang is still too strong!"

"Steps, fights, injuries, suspensions... Oh, what a bargain!! Now that I think about this year's Western Conference finals, this is definitely the most exciting set of performances I have seen in the past 20 years!"

"Hey, buddy, you missed two points, Wang's hanging dunk and the 39-year-old UFO's take-off!"

"Yes, although it is cruel, we still have to congratulate the Trail Blazers. Congratulations to them once again rushing out of the West and reaching the Finals!"

"Brothers, let's celebrate the birth of a new dynasty! I can't wait to see the performance of the Blazers in the Finals!"

"I think so!"

"Me too +1"

"Me too +2!"

"Hehe, what about the Blazers Dynasty, just wait and see, LeBron is the real king, and the Cavaliers are still the champions this year!"

"How about returning the Cavaliers championship? Can you show some face, you should win the Raptors first, then talk about it?"

"That is, although the Cavaliers won Tianwangshan, but the next game will go to Toronto, maybe they will be dragged into the tiebreaker by the Raptors?"

"Return to the finals, you guys pass the Eastern Conference finals first!"

"In other words, if Wang really led the Portland Trail Blazers to establish a dynasty this year, do you think it is possible for him to surpass Michael Jordan after he retires?"

"Very interesting! After all, he is still so young..."

"It seems to be like this. Wang is too young. His future is destined to be a sea of ​​stars. I can't even imagine how many championships he will win after retiring? 5? 6? Still comparable to Russell's 11 indivual?"

"That... As a rational Wang Mi~www.mtlnovel.com~, I think everyone should focus on the present. It is still too far to surpass Michael. If you say this now, it is tantamount to recruiting the king!"

"That makes sense. Now Wang is still four championships away from Michael? Why don't we temporarily set the goal of surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Russell and Shaq?"

"That's right, before becoming the number one player in history, Wang must at least become the number one center forward in history!"

"It's rare to meet a rational Wang Mi, I agree!"

"I agree with +1!"

"I agree with +2!"

"+3!"
