boom.

The ball went in again.

The Warriors' continuous fast-break counterattacks made the Timberwolves exhausted, especially today when Curry continued to score under the cover of the pick-and-roll, which made the situation on the field begin to change.

As time went on, the score of the Timberwolves was gradually opened up, and they were leading by 6 points by the Warriors at the end of the third quarter.

When the last quarter began, Curry no longer took a rest as before, but chose to stay on the court.

He played almost all of the first three quarters. Except for the 3-minute break in the second quarter, he was on the court at all other times. Such playing time is also a key factor for the Warriors to open the score.

After all the fans stood up, Zhao Feiyang suddenly dribbled the ball from the left to break through, and Curry's body center of gravity also shifted accordingly.

This time the Timberwolves directly marked the whole game, and the Warriors only had one last chance to attack. As long as they can't score, the team can win!

But once they score, the Timberwolves are likely to lose.

Fans throughout the arena tensed up.

Curry pushed forward with the ball, Zhao Feiyang changed his previous defensive attitude, and this time went directly to interfere with various hands.

His actions also made Curry constantly choose to respond sideways.

After halftime, Green directly mentioned the high position to help Curry cover.

Zhao Feiyang had also noticed their actions a long time ago, and immediately bypassed Green to defend, as did his teammate Adrian, which made Curry unable to open up his shots.

In this case, Thompson on the wing suddenly rushed up to catch the ball.

Snapped.

The basketball fell into his hands, and when he stood still and seemed about to raise the basketball to make a shot, LaVine rushed towards him.

However, Thompson's action is only a feint.

In the next second, after flying LaVine, he quickly opened the distance and rushed directly to his familiar corner position.

Under the panicked eyes of the fans, Thompson stood still and raised the basketball to make a decisive shot.

Swish.

The ball is in.

A crisp three-pointer fell steadily into the basket.

Zhao Feiyang was directly double-teamed by Curry and Iguodala. Howard, who was standing under the basket, couldn't give him the ball at all. LaVine on the side also rushed up to respond, trying to get the ball by himself and throw it around. try.

However, Thompson also stuck to him, not giving him any chance at all.

In the end, it was Andrew Wiggins who ran out of space, and Adrian had to give him the ball.

Wiggins didn't have any time to hesitate, got the ball and threw it out with a super long-range three-pointer.

It's a pity that this kind of ball is not what he is good at. The thrown basketball flew out of bounds without even touching the basket.

beep.

The sound of the end of the live timer sounds.

Numerous fans sighed in disappointment, the Timberwolves players also looked helpless, and Zhao Feiyang and others on the court shook their heads repeatedly.

The Warriors were different. With Thompson's key three-pointer at the last moment, they finally overtook the score at the most dangerous time.

This time, the Warriors players also gathered together to cheer and celebrate.

Thompson seemed to be the hero of the team, and walked to the player tunnel surrounded by all the Warriors players.

The Warriors are gone!

The next game will be back at Oracle Arena, their home stadium.For them, they will have a greater probability of winning the final game.

The Timberwolves, who were originally leading, also had to face reality because of this narrow defeat.

No matter what the previous performance was, there is no way for them and the Warriors to retreat. The two sides only have the last chance. No matter who wins or loses, the entire series will come to an end.

On the night of the loss, Zhao Feiyang, who is the core of the team, was not blamed. After all, he scored 30+ stats by himself, so there is really nothing to criticize.

LaVine, whose performance was not stable enough, undoubtedly became the target of fans' reprimand, especially his performance at the last moment, because he was thrown by Thompson and caused a defensive error, allowing the opponent to throw in that crucial three-pointer.

Many fans in Minneapolis targeted him because of this, constantly criticizing LaVine's performance on social media, and some even threatened that he should be traded.
