The invincible kryptonite of basketball

And in the next round, Bogut also assisted in defending against Tang Tian and successfully defended against the Pelicans' first attack.

There were constant cheers at the scene.

These two rounds fully illustrate the importance of Bogut to the Warriors now. The Warriors lost in the past two games with a high probability of losing at this point!

Now that Cole corrects him back, the Warriors are completely worthy of the Pelicans!

The fans at the scene thought so, but their thoughts didn't last long.

Because in the next round, the Pelicans forced Thompson to stop the ball by pressing, and Tang Tian then directly took the ball away from Thompson.

Thompson is a top pitcher, but his current ball handling is really mediocre.

Tang Tian played a fast break after the steal, speeding up and throwing off the chasing Curry to score with both hands.

Curry's second outside [-]-pointer missed, and after Davis grabbed the defensive rebound, the Pelicans went to the frontcourt to play.

Tang Tian suddenly points to the basket to attract double-teams and give the ball to Jokic on the bottom line. Jokic turns around and puts the basket to score.

In terms of finishing rate, Jokic is much higher than Biyombo and McGee.

Of course, the most important thing is that after the Warriors were useless, their defensive contraction slowed down, and Tang Tian had more room to play.

Barnes cut to catch the ball and was blocked by Davis, and Bogut's offensive shot was also interfered by Jokic.

Jokic scored a defensive rebound, and the Pelicans turned directly to the defensive counterattack.

Without the five minors, the Warriors' defense also slowed down.

Tang Tian catches the ball in the frontcourt, and he rushes to the frontcourt and doesn't play himself. Instead, he makes a pass back without looking at people, and slips the ball from Thompson's armpit to Davis, who is following up.

Davis swung his arm with one hand and smashed the dunk, smashing the ball into the basket hard.

4:3.

Although the points were similar, the Pelicans were on the same scene as the previous two games and quickly took the initiative.

There was a commotion at the scene, and the fans realized that their previous judgment was an illusion.

After all, from the core to the team configuration, the Pelicans have surpassed the Warriors unconsciously.

Chapter 834 Succeeded in Chasing the Egg

After the first quarter, the score was 35-25.

Bogut's playing did have some effect on the Warriors' position defense, but it was very limited.

The Pelicans' defensive counterattack was fast, which weakened Bogut's role infinitely.

In this quarter alone, the Pelicans scored as many as 18 fast break points, which is more than the past two games combined.

There are gains and losses. Jokic is on the three-point line most of the time, so that he can retreat in place. Bogut obviously can't do this.

In the opening stage of the second quarter, both sides started with four substitutes.

On the Warriors side, Green led the team, plus Barbosa, Livingston, Iguodala and Speights.

The Pelicans are led by Davis, plus Dinwiddie, Stephenson, Bojan and McGee.

Bo Yang came up and used McGee to pick and roll Davis' pass and scored a three-pointer.

Although Ariza didn't start again after his return, his stable shooting made him the most reliable scoring point for the Pelicans' bench.

Looking back, Speights hit a signature mid-range jumper from the high post to pay back.

The Pelicans have an excellent bench, and the Warriors' bench is not weak either.

Dinwiddie's breakthrough layup was interfered by Speights, but Davis followed up and grabbed the offensive rebound and dunked directly.

After Bogut was put on the starting lineup, the Warriors' ability to protect the frame naturally weakened.

Green turned around and shot a three-pointer at the top of the arc to retaliate, but it was a pity that he hit the frame under the interference of Davis.

He had a lot of fun in this series, but his touch outside the three-point line was not good.

McGee grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Warriors' offense failed again.

Cole yelled anxiously from the sidelines.

This substitute has not played 2 minutes at this stage, and the point difference on the field has been pulled to as many as 15 points.

This is the rhythm of being 0 to 3!

When 0 to 1, he can still talk and laugh.

At 0-2, he still pretended to be calm.

But 0 to 3, sorry, he is Cole, not a fairy.

Davis caught the ball in the low post and hit Green hard, turned around and leaned back to meet Green's long arm and then went in.

Green is really at a disadvantage against Davis.

Cole shook his head helplessly and rested his forehead. This game really cannot be changed by him alone as a coach.

At 17 points, the enthusiastic Bay Area fans at the beginning of the game were now unprecedentedly quiet, and the Oracle Arena turned from lava into an iceberg.

This is really losing my temper after being beaten.

Not to mention the fans, the Warriors' bench was dead silent.

Both Curry and Thompson had expressions on their faces. Obviously, the situation in front of them was far different from what they imagined.

When they reversed the Thunder before, they still wanted to win the defending championship of the Pelicans.

That all looks pretty slim now.

The Warriors' offense, the attack time is approaching, Green's iconic ball at the top of the arc did not pass the ball for a long time.

The Pelicans are playing more and more smoothly, and the quality of the defensive end is also constantly improving.

Seeing that there was not much attack time left, Green chose to break through Davis with the ball.

Davis has no problem defending Green alone. He retreats to the frontier and always maintains a defensive position, ready to give Green a big shot.

To say that Tang Tian is the best player so far, and the second best player is Davis.

The saddest thing about being eliminated by the Warriors last year was Davis. Just like being eliminated by the Grizzlies before, he was struggling to fight back.

He's done the same for the past two games.

Since Green beat him hard, he beat Green back to reality, so that the latter could wake up from the dream of eliminating the Pelicans 4-2.

Green couldn't squeeze Davis away, and either got caught or stopped the ball or walked.

Just when it seemed that no choice was suitable for him, the last kick of his breakthrough suddenly fell in front of Davis's legs inadvertently, and then directly forced it up.

Davis shot to block, and his hand directly blocked the ball in Green's hand.

But in the next second, his expression suddenly became extremely painful, and he fell from the air to the floor, covering his crotch with both hands.

It turned out that Green lifted his left foot straight up when he took off, and kicked Davis in the crotch!

During the regular season, Davis was also kicked in the crotch by Green, but he avoided it and only suffered a sprained ankle.

But this time his attention was on the block and he didn't notice Green's feet at all!

And he didn't expect Green to attack in such a way!

This really escaped the first day of junior high school but not the fifth day of junior high school, and it is hard to guard against.

Stephenson was the first to rush over and push Green directly, and the players on the two sides directly fought together.

Stevens called the team doctor to get the latter to go on the field quickly, and then he calmly stopped the players who were going to go on the field, including Tang Tian and Ci Shiping.

Pachulia was shocked by Tang Tian's beating before, and now that Tang Tian is off the court, that's why Green dared to do so.

The conflict on the court was opened by the referee.

Stephenson returned to the bench and kept cursing, obviously he was quite unhappy with Green's approach.

But Tang Tian focused on Davis right now.

After being helped by the team doctor to the sidelines, Davis stood for a while, and finally motioned for himself to go back to the locker room.

The testicles are the most vulnerable part of a man. If he is kicked by such a solid player, and the opponent is an NBA player, he is already considered iron if he is not kicked or knocked out.

Green directly crippled Davis.

The on-site technical station was reviewing the video, and Green was also explaining to the referee on the sidelines that he had no intention of doing so.

The referee finally issued a penalty, and Green and Stephenson each received a technical foul.

Stevens was still calm, and Brown rushed to the referee's seat to protest emotionally, but this did not change the penalty.

This is the final penalty.

Green was replaced by Thompson for a rest, and the Pelicans also played Jokic ahead of schedule.

In the few minutes of the transition from the bench, Thompson scored consecutive shots from long-range shots, helping the Warriors narrow the point difference to 12 points.

Davis' injury and retirement have an obvious impact on the Pelicans.

Green's kick, replacing Davis with a technical foul, is quite worth it.

After the substitute transition period was over, the main players of both sides changed back one after another.

Green also came off the bench again.

Tang Tian took a special look at Green before going on stage.

When Green was explaining to the referee on the technical stage, he stood not far away and heard it clearly.

It's not intentional, it's just an unconscious movement after the body loses balance. He never maliciously targets the opponent's players...

He heard these explanations as Stephenson said before the game, all fart, and the kind that Green himself would not believe.

He was too lazy to fight with Green before, but it doesn't mean he will sit idly by.

Punching Kenyon Martin, flying Pachulia, elbowing Green, he's always been the kind of guy who gets his revenge.

It wasn't intentional, was it?

Then wait.

Chapter 835 I Didn't Mean It

Green felt that someone was looking at him, turned his head and saw Tang Tian, ​​shook his body unconsciously, and stretched out his hand to touch his nose.

He still remembers the time Tang Tian gave him a nose in the regular season.

But since he dared to kick the egg, he must be prepared.

He will not give Tang Tian an elbow to his own nose again.

Playing these small moves, as long as he is prepared, no one else is his opponent.

The main players of both sides came back, and Curry continued his excellent touch. He broke through the inside line when he came up, and scored 2+1 when he was fouled by Jokic and lost his balance.

Green roared with excitement after Curry scored, looking even more excited than Curry.

He successfully helped the Warriors find hope of winning in his own way!

Stevens shook his head helplessly on the sidelines. Without Davis, the Pelicans' interior defense was significantly weaker.

You must know that Jokic's defense is average, and the Pelicans often rely on Davis' help defense, especially after Brown came to strengthen this point.

This high-level game is like a balance. The total weight of the Pelicans was significantly higher than that of the Warriors before, but without Davis as a weight, the balance began to tilt obviously towards the Warriors.

Curry made a steady penalty and the Warriors narrowed the point difference to 9 points!

The cheers on the scene shook. Counting Thompson's score before, the Warriors have already played a wave of 8-0 offensive.

Now they have a chance!

"Defense! Defense!"
