NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

May 3, Game 6 of the series between the Warriors and the Hornets.

This is the Warriors' last stand.

If the Warriors lose, they will be eliminated; if they win, they will go to New Orleans for the tiebreaker.

In the Western Conference, the Los Angeles Lakers eliminated the Nuggets with a total score of 4:1.

The careers of the two leaders of the 1996 generation were foreshadowed in this series. One is still tenaciously climbing to the top, while the other has slowly declined.

The Spurs lead the Suns 3:2, and the threat posed by the Sharks to the Spurs is no longer as terrifying as it was during the Lakers' days.

In terms of attention in China, the Rockets-Jazz series is much higher than the Warriors-Hornets series.

After all, the Rockets are the home team in the hearts of Chinese people, and fans have deep feelings for the Rockets.

Yue Yi could predict that if the Warriors played against the Rockets in the series, he would definitely be vilified by the extreme Rockets fans. Yue Yi did not dare to compare his weight in the hearts of the fans with that of the Rockets.

The Jazz led the Rockets 3:2. The two teams fought hard to defend. The tenacity of the remaining Rockets moved countless fans.

The Warriors, like the Rockets, are facing life and death battles.

The Oracle Arena was crowded, and tickets with an average ticket price of 300 US dollars were already hard to get. The first row seats soared to more than 2,000 US dollars, and the VIP seats reached 5,000 US dollars.

San Francisco has Silicon Valley, and there is no shortage of money for high-tech talents. This city has never been short of rich people. Tickets for the Warriors will only continue to rise in the days to come.

The battle of life and death began. The two teams defended very intensely from the beginning and committed frequent fouls.

With more than six minutes left in the first quarter, Yue Yi was replaced by Barnes when there was a free throw on the court.

The tough guy Barnes can play shooting guard or small forward, and usually serves as captain Jackson's substitute.

The commentators in the Huaguo live broadcast room are still wondering why Yue Yi was replaced so early. In this series, Yue Yi basically didn't leave until there were only one or two minutes left in the first quarter.

They didn't know what medicine Old Nelson was selling in his gourd.

Barnes came up to lead Paul, talking trash and making small moves on the defensive end.

This game is extremely explosive.

Although Paul is young, he behaves very maturely and knows that his opponents are just targeting him.

Faced with Barnes' trash talk, he ignored it, focused on the court and let the ball do the talking.

However, it was really annoying to face such harassment. Paul complained to the referee several times about Barnes' little moves.

It wasn't until 4 minutes later in the second quarter that Barnes received two fouls, scored 2 points, and went off to rest.

But there are still disputes on the court.

With more than 3 minutes left in the second quarter, Yue Yi was guarding Butler, who suddenly emerged in the last game, near the corner. This guy indirectly caused the Warriors to lose the battle at Tianwang Mountain.

At this time, Yue Yi suddenly heard the referee's rapid whistle. Yue Yi turned around and saw Jackson fell to the ground.

Jackson immediately got up with a murderous look on his face, then rushed towards West who pushed him down, and pushed him back.

When Yue Yi saw this, he immediately ran over.

When a teammate is bullied on the field, no matter whether you take action or not, you must first show your support for your teammate.

Teammates and referees from both sides came running over, and the scene was a mess.

The captain kept provoking,"Hit me, you weakling, coward, I can kill you."

The two of them grabbed each other's collars, and their movements became more and more violent, so that the jerseys were torn.

West was really angry, and Captain Jackson was deliberately holding on to him.

The referee originally wanted to separate the two people and give each a T, but it ended up in this scene. The referee was booed in the ears, and a technical foul was not enough.

The two were forcibly pulled apart and both were ejected.

The boos continued, and fans on both sides of the aisle heading to the locker room stood up and sprayed West.

West was escorted back to the locker room by security.

Captain Jackson held his head high, greeted the fans and walked back to the locker room.

Yue Yi thought, West pushed the captain down? No, it should be more reasonable for the captain to push West down.

He raised his head and looked at the big screen hanging above the arena. The screens on all sides were replaying what happened.

It turned out that before he was pushed down, the captain had already had a heated argument with him. Judging from his expression, the captain was the one who took the initiative.

Before West took action, the captain gave him a push.

This depends on the perspective of a bystander. The light of justice should be directed towards West, but Yueyi is the captain's teammate and a Warriors player.

Yue Yi looked at Old Nelson, who was standing on the sidelines on the bench, and thought to himself:

Use a medium horse to replace the opponent's high-quality horse. Is it the ultimate one-for-one?

This old guy.

On the basketball court, there are all kinds of yang and yin methods. On the road to the supreme, you must be able to cope with all the methods used by the enemy.

Yue Yi agreed to use some less than fair means in order to win.

But Yue Yi doesn't agree with using dirty methods to directly destroy the opponent.

Such as the evil stepping stone.

At least a certain level of professional ethics is required.

After the Hornets were beaten one-for-one by the Warriors, the offensive rhythm on the field was obviously affected. West was the Hornets' first scoring point in this series.

After returning from halftime, the Hornets players deliberately provoked Yue Yi.

But Yue Yi is mature in his heart, and he is not a fool. His teammates just used this routine again, now you will use it on me?

Do you look up to me or look down on me?

Without one absolute strong point, the Hornets' offensive end could no longer open up the situation in the second half. It was obviously impossible for the defensive end to fully restrict the Warriors.

In the end, the Hornets lost the game, 92:103, and the series was dragged into a tiebreaker.

This is also the only series in the first round of the Western Conference.

There was no miracle for the Rockets, who lost to the Jazz 2:4 and also suffered injuries. Once again, they unfortunately stopped in the first round.

The Spurs eliminated the Suns 4:2, and the two major teams decided the winner in the first round of the playoffs.

This also announced that the Suns' reform this season ended in failure.

In the next matchup, the Lakers will face the Jazz, while the Spurs are waiting for the winner of the two teams, the Warriors and the Hornets.

At the door of the locker room, captain Jackson stood there, hugging every returning teammate warmly and thanking them for being on the court and helping him win the victory.

The Warriors players also expressed their gratitude to the captain who"takes most of the credit" for his contribution to the team and his sacrifice for the team.

Without his one-for-one, it would be difficult to say the outcome of this game.

There are some things that head coach Nelson and the team bosses will not tell Yue Yi in advance, let alone let him do.

This is also to protect him and cherish the reputation of a future star.

Yue Yi is very grateful for this. Reliable means are only temporary and are not the right way after all.

What should we do in the next game 7?
