The strongest basket king

Chapter 564 The Third Time

In the G5 game, the Nuggets still led in the first half, although it was only 2 points.

In the Pepsi Center, it is too difficult for the Warriors to defeat the Nuggets in an unaccustomed way, but this may be their only hope. In this battle of restraint, the Nuggets are obviously the dominant side.

"Be patient, no matter how they change, the scorer will not change." Xiang Chu reminded others.

This point of the Warriors is harder to change than the Nuggets. Except for Curry and Klay, the Warriors are really not good at scoring. After Iguodala became a support, his singles ability has also dropped a lot. He can only come once in a while. It will put the result on him.

If the Warriors want to keep Bogut to defend Xiang Chu, it means that they have one less attack point. In fact, after thinking about the Warriors' strategy, it is not difficult for the Nuggets to deal with it.

Being restrained and dying slowly, the warrior chooses to die slowly, hoping that a miracle will happen if he lives longer.

With their strength, that situation may also occur, but it is also more convenient for the Nuggets to target.

The efficiency of Curry and Clay was average in the first quarter, and improved a little in the second quarter. In the third quarter, the momentum of the two became stronger, especially Curry, who was in a daze to create a threat in the strict defense.

However, the Nuggets are also much smoother on the offensive end, after all, they were not used to it in the first half.

So the situation on both sides has not changed much, but with the strength of the offensive end, whichever side seizes the opportunity may be able to change the situation in an instant.

In the third quarter, the Nuggets were still gradually opening up the score. They didn't catch any big flaws in the opponent, but killed them abruptly.

It can only be said that Xiang Chu is too fierce, and Bogut has indeed avoided the foul problem, but Green, who is helping to defend, has this trouble on his back.

Why can Bogut be a meat shield with peace of mind, because the defense is fierce.

Green let Xiang Chu take some balls this time, but the price he paid was not small, not only fouls, but also a lot of less energy on the offensive end.

The Warriors don't play the five minors, and it's not sure if Green goes down. Iguodala can still help defend the inside.

However, after all, there are still some differences. Green is very important in the Warriors' system and is the team's assist king. If Iguodala can barely replace this, Iguodala will definitely not be able to prevent Jokic. Maybe It is said that the Warriors' rebounding is even worse.

The Nuggets extended their lead to 5 points in the third quarter, which is not much for the two teams, but even 1 point can be fatal.

The current ideal lineup for the Warriors is that both Green and Iguodala are on the court, giving up other offenses, and then the Splash Brothers are hard to throw. Now they are even hard to achieve.

In the final quarter, Curry, who had nowhere to retreat, finally lost his temper. It can also be said to be the Splash Brothers, but Clay's threat is still a little lower than Curry.

The Nuggets also began to work hard. Green has committed four offenses and they will target them.

Green is very powerful and can't hit the general inside line, but the Nuggets have no problem with the two inside lines.

Just after half a quarter, Green fouled for the fifth time, and the Warriors' defense fell into crisis.

Coach Kerr didn't make any substitutions. Anyway, he had already fought hard. The six fouls meant leaving, and the loss was even more complete.

After entering the last 5 minutes, both the fans and the players on both sides felt the tension on the field.

Players may not think too much in the fierce game, but the tactics are also lost in their minds. Most of them are already playing completely by habit.

At this time, even if the coach shouts on the field, it is difficult to have an effect.

It's better to give the game to the stars, they will give the answer, victory or regret.

At 3 minutes and 58 seconds, Curry hit a three-pointer.

At 2 minutes and 48 seconds, Curry hit another three-pointer, and the score gap between the two teams was also narrowed to 3 points.

The smallest gap since the final quarter, only one more three-pointer is needed, and the two sides will stand on the same starting line.

However, the Nuggets didn't watch the opponent play, and then Xiang Chu scored again.

Curry has scored 31 points, and Xiang Chu is about to hit 40. This is the case when he was targeted throughout the process.

A little bit, always a little bit, the Warriors' player mentality is about to collapse.

Clay made a three-pointer, but this time he missed. He and Curry have also played for more than 40 minutes, and the game entered the final 2 minutes.

"Damn it." Cole couldn't help cursing from the sidelines.

After finally limiting the Nuggets' attack, Xiang Chu got another offensive rebound.

The Nuggets are already controlling the clock, their chances are dwindling, and as coach Kerr has nothing to do.

Time was running out, and this time even Curry missed.

In 45 seconds, Kulibo got a free throw, but he was still 2 points behind with both free throws.

In 23 seconds, Curry hit 2 points, but it was not enough. They could only send the Nuggets to the free throw line.

At 12 seconds, Curry made a shot from outside the three-point line. There was no suspense in the game, and the Warriors still chose to foul.

After Xiang Chu made two free throws, the Warriors had no choice but to admit defeat.

The cheers of the Pepsi Center resounded through the sky. The Nuggets beat the Warriors 4:1 and won the Western Conference Championship again.

The Nuggets won the game, and George Karl praised the players' desire to win.

However, the failed Warriors came to an end. Even if they had a high winning percentage in the regular season, they were still a little bit behind.

When Carl faced reporters, he could only helplessly express that it was not that the Warriors did not work hard, but that the Nuggets were too strong.

"Everyone gave everything on the court, and we have no regrets." After Curry said this, his eyes were full of determination, and they will make a comeback.

There are still finals to be played later, and this is the third consecutive year that Xiang Chu has stood in this position.

But it doesn't mean that they should restrain their joy now, first cheer to their heart's content, and then, as the team leader, Xiang Chu will tell others that it is okay to be happy, but restraint in celebrating.

Wait until you win the championship, and then celebrate with the whole city.

The promotion of the Nuggets may have stimulated the Cavaliers, the fifth game between the Cavaliers and the Raptors. The Cavaliers led by 31 points in the first half, and they completely suppressed their opponents on both offense and defense.

The Big Three of the Cavaliers showed their power in full swing, and Love, who did not perform well in the front, hit a super high shooting percentage.

The front may have been careless. After winning the match point, the Cavaliers gave people the feeling that they once again beat the Raptors.

To be honest, Xiang Chu hopes to fight the Raptors if he can choose, and the Raptors are indeed weaker.

But if nothing else, he needs to face James' team for three consecutive years. The Cavaliers are better, but compared to their Nuggets, they are still not enough.

Xiang Chu has such arrogance, he is sure of the three consecutive championships, and neither James nor anyone can stop him.

I don't know if James will play in the Olympics in the summer, but Xiang Chu has decided to accept the invitation.

Maybe a lot of guys who want to defeat him will play tactics around him in Xia Tian, ​​so it's interesting to think about it.

After completing the NBA's three consecutive championships, it's time to win an Olympic gold medal.
