NBA: Booker’s template, female stars are all power banks

“Stephen, you’re so tired!”

STAPLES Arena!

Inside the visiting team's locker room

After halftime, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr returned to the locker room, looked at Curry who was soaked in sweat, and realized something was wrong: "You must need more rest time in the second half!"

"No!"

Curry remained stubborn: "I can continue to play!"

Horse riding!

What will happen now!?

I haven’t said to Ye Huan yet: The future is yours!

How could Curry succumb to his own physical strength?

Indeed, the Golden State Warriors are really strong!

But, they met Ye Huan!

At the beginning of the second half, Ye Huan continued to stick to his ball-holding offensive tactics. In order to cooperate with Ye Huan, Clippers head coach Rivers simply used the five-guard lineup again in the second half.

As soon as the five-guard lineup came on the court, Kerr on the sidelines became anxious.

Physical fitness and injuries are topics that this Warriors team can never avoid.

Their physical fitness does not allow them to run back and forth with the Clippers all over the court.

Now the only thing they can pray for is that Curry turns on the "Daytime Mode"!

Unfortunately, the twilight of the gods has quietly arrived!

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Warriors attacked and Curry lost his accuracy for a moment.

The severe consumption of physical energy has visibly reduced Curry's dribbling ability.

Facing Beverly's still mad dog-like defense, Curry's three-pointers were either a little short or too heavy.

Curry's silence also caused the Warriors to stagnate on the offensive end!

but!

The youth storm of the Los Angeles Clippers will not let up!

Although Ye Huan's offensive efficiency has slightly declined with the consumption of physical energy, compared with the Warriors players, he is now a god of war.

The huge gap between the two teams on the offensive end also made the score difference widen instantly!

With three minutes left in the fourth quarter, Grace Allen received a pass from Ye Huan outside the left three-point line and made a three-pointer!

At this point, the difference between the two teams has reached 20 points!

"duang!"

Looking back, Curry failed to hit two consecutive three-pointers from the top of the arc with the help of pick-and-rolls, and Draymond Green was called for a foul for his irrational behavior in grabbing the rebound.

"Beep!"

The referee's whistle was like the death knell for the defending champion.

Steve Kerr made a big move and decisively replaced the starting lineup.

They need to force Curry, Durant and others to return to the bench to rest.

Similarly, their end was to officially announce their abandonment of the competition!

finally!

The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the defending champions again at the Staples Center with a huge score difference of 26 points!

After winning the decisive battle, the Clippers took a big lead of 3:2!

In the next game, if the Clippers defeat their opponents again, they will eliminate the defending champions with a total score of 4:2 and enter the finals!

"Today's victory was a complete tactical victory for the Los Angeles Clippers!

"We can't deny the excellence of Coach Steve Kerr."

"But at the tactical level today, the Los Angeles Clippers are undoubtedly the better side!"

In the first game of the series between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Warriors, Kevin Durant's absence and Cousins' slump on both offense and defense allowed the Clippers to take the lead.

In the second game, Draymond Green almost caused a large-scale conflict and was directly ejected from the game.

Without the most crucial member of the Death Five lineup, they lost to Los Angeles for the second consecutive game.

It can be said that apart from the Tsunami brothers, the other two giants of the Warriors each made a fatal mistake, which also led to the Warriors suffering two consecutive defeats.

Even after returning to Oracle Arena, the Warriors won two games in a row after welcoming back Kevin Durant.

But today, even though the Tsunami brothers did not perform poorly, the Warriors still lost to the Clippers.

And it was a big defeat.

There is no better room for improvement in the players' individual performance.

The only problem lies in the tactical arrangements of the two teams.

The Golden State Warriors won two games in a row at home, all thanks to the "Ye Huan Rule!"

However, since the Clippers started using a five-guard lineup, a youth storm has been set off.

The defending champion is totally overwhelmed!

It's not just the team's lack of firepower on the offensive end, or the physical fitness and injury problems of all the Warriors players, which were once again magnified infinitely in this game.

Compared with the big score deficit, the physical problems of Curry and others are the most important thing the Warriors should consider right now.

"Even if Coach Kerr finds a way to solve the Clippers' five-guard lineup."

"But the team's current injury problem is still difficult to solve!"

"Can the Golden State Warriors withstand the Clippers' attack on the throne? The answer will be revealed at Oracle Arena the day after tomorrow!"

Perhaps...the once-dreaded Golden State Warriors have reached the end of their era!

"This alliance belongs to the young people after all!"

Inside the Warriors executive meeting room in Oakland

Team owner Lacob, looking at the live broadcast of the Warriors losing by a large margin, kept saying:

"It's time we started thinking about reconstruction!"

Myers, the team's general manager next to Lacob, did not respond immediately.

He knew exactly what his boss meant.

I also understand the team's current salary problems.

Durant has rejected the team's contract extension offers many times this season, and everyone knows that the Grim Reaper intends to leave Golden State.

Dekumar Cousins, who was signed to a mid-level contract in the summer, will also become an unrestricted free agent after the season.

The salary space occupied by veterans such as Iguodala and Livingston is too high.

Besides!

They also have to consider Klay Thompson's contract extension this summer.

In other words:

If the Golden State Warriors fail to successfully defend their title this season, there will be an abyss behind them!

Back to Staples Center!

In this carnival-filled stadium, Curry and Durant both refused post-game interviews from the media and turned to walk into the player tunnel.

They couldn't remember the last time they were so passive.

Looks like it's in Houston! ?

Apparently, it’s in Cleveland! ?

But none of these are as great as the pressure from Los Angeles!

Draymond Green accepted the post-game media interview on behalf of the two.

He no longer has the arrogance he had in the first two games, and his answer was also not very powerful:

nextquestion!

After Green, the media immediately surrounded head coach Kerr.

In those two games in Oakland, Kerr used the Ye Huan Rule.

But today, the Clippers' five-guard lineup completely shattered Coach Kerr's tactics.

Reporters are eager to see what Kerr, the head coach, thinks about the technical and tactical aspects of the two teams.

"The responsibility for the team's loss today does not lie with the players, but with our coaching staff!"

Facing the camera, Steve Kerr took the initiative to take the blame: "We didn't find a way to limit the opponent quickly, this is my responsibility!"

The team is on the verge of elimination, but Kerr is still confident: "We are confident that we can return to Los Angeles and play a tiebreaker with the Clippers at Staples Center!"
