Warriors bench.
Curry is still receiving emergency treatment for his knee from the team doctors. When he was on the court, he was repeatedly tortured by Zhao Chen and Westbrook's changes of direction.
This feeling made him uncomfortable.
Curry's injury is actually nothing compared to previous injuries. He might be able to recover in a few days if he rests, but now the game is in progress and he is not allowed to rest in the series.
Curry is gritting his teeth and persisting. Curry knows very well that he can no longer be defeated by injuries. Without him, the Warriors will never be able to withstand the Thunder's offensive.
Curry's defense on the outside is very restrictive to the Thunder. Even if he is standing on the court, he can attract more than two people to defend him.
The overall atmosphere on the Warriors' bench was very bad. This was not the first time they had lost and then went home. They had been under such pressure for several consecutive games, and they also felt both physical and psychological exhaustion.
This isn't because they don't have enough desire for the championship, it's just human nature.
"There is still a long time in the game, and this kind of lagging behind is not terrible." Curry stood up and said.
Curry did not continue to let the team doctor massage him. This kind of massage had little effect. It would only make his teammates think that his injury was serious and undermine his confidence.
The difference is only 12 points, and the game is not over yet.
"Yes, it's not time to give up the game yet." Thompson also stood up and said.
Thompson is equally eager to win!
"Don't give up!" Iguodala also shouted.
"Kill them," Green shouted.
Facing the extremely powerful Thunder, the Warriors seemed united.
Mark Jackson looked at this scene with great relief. He always believed that even if he could not win the championship this year, this team would win in the future.
They have all the makings of a championship team.
Pause back.
The Warriors sent five Death Squadrons.
The Thunder replaced Lamb with Durant.
This game is too critical, and neither side will let the core rest for too long.
"Still the same tactic, let's consume Curry." Zhao Chen told Westbrook and Durant.
"No problem." Durant nodded.
Durant watched Zhao Chen and Westbrook beat Curry off the court, and this feeling was also very satisfying.
Warriors attack.
Green's dribbling advance.
Mark Jackson asked Green to come up in the hope of opening up the space, and then Green could share Curry's organizational tasks to a certain extent.
Westbrook continued to press Curry.
Curry was very flexible. He used Iguodala's screen to get rid of Westbrook and came to the left.
Green immediately handed the ball over.
Zhao Chen and Durant help defend at the same time!
Westbrook also pounced! !
Oracle Center saw a tragic scene.
Curry was surrounded by the Thunder's Big Three.
Curry wanted to protect the ball, but he couldn't do it.
Three super giants who are far more physically gifted than him, and whose reaction speed is not inferior to his, make it a luxury for him to play the ball!
"It's so miserable Curry."
"He is the only Warriors player who enjoys such treatment."
"The Thunder's plan tonight is to freeze Curry regardless of anyone else."
The fans were whispering to each other, the scene was really miserable facing Curry.
Durant's long arm knocked Curry's ball away again, Zhao Chen got the ball, and the Thunder once again started a transition attack on the spot.
After Curry was robbed, he also wanted to grab back, but he couldn't, and Curry fell instead.
Zhao Chen passed the ball to Westbrook, and Westbrook passed the ball to Durant at high speed.
Durant took three steps outside the three-point line and dunked hard! !
38 to 24.
The point difference is getting wider and wider, and the situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Warriors.
"The Warriors need someone else to step up and help Curry. This is not the way to go," a local commentator in Golden State said.
All Warriors fans can see that Curry was targeted.
On the court, the sweat on Curry's forehead continued to remain. The Thunder's defensive aggressiveness was too strong. If this kind of fast break was repeated a few more times, it would collapse.
When everyone thought the Warriors were about to collapse, Thompson came out.
After attracting the defense, Curry did not hesitate to pass the ball back to Green, who quickly passed it to Thompson on the other side.
Thompson was missed!
From the 45-degree position on the right, Thompson's key three-pointer!
"Uh-huh!"
38 to 27.
Thompson's three-pointer immediately restored the momentum of Oracle Center.
This three-pointer also allowed the Warriors to establish their psychological defense again.
Zhao Chen also focused on Thompson.
This guy can't miss it either.
The Thunder's offense comes again.
Zhao Chen and Durant's pick-and-roll. After the pick-and-roll, Zhao Chen gave the ball to Durant, and Durant took a step past Curry's emergency stop in the mid-range.
"frame!"
Durant's shot missed and the rebound was taken by Green.
Green quickly advanced through half court himself.
Green went to the line and gave the ball to Curry.
After Curry attracted a double attack, he immediately distributed the ball to Iguodala in the middle.
Iguodala passed a hand-to-hand pass to Thompson, and then blocked Zhao Chen.
Thompson uses the screen to hit the high mid-range!
"Whoosh!"
38 to 29.
Thompson's consecutive hits helped the Warriors stop the bleeding.
Thunder offense.
Zhao Chen used Ibaka's screen to complete the breakthrough. Before Green's help arrived, Zhao Chen succeeded in an easy layup.
40 to 29.
For other offensive players, the defensive ability of the Death Five is strong enough, but for Zhao Chen, this kind of defense is not enough.
Warriors attack.
Green brought the ball over and gave it to Thompson, but Thompson was restrained by Zhao Chen and had no chance.
Thompson passed the ball to Iguodala, who was cutting.
Iguodala relied on Durant's layup to score the ball.
Iguodala has not completely degenerated yet, and his offense is not as useless as Zhao Chen thought.
40 to 31.
Thunder offense.
Zhao Chen and Westbrook's pick-and-roll.
Curry switched to guard Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen made a series of angry changes and then rushed to Curry's left side.
Curry couldn't keep up with Zhao Chen's speed and could only watch as Zhao Chen completely got rid of him.
After Zhao Chen broke in, he met Green's defense. Zhao Chen sent the ball to the center with a low hand.
Ibaka dunks with both hands after catching the ball! ! !
"frame!"
Feeding cake successfully.
42 to 31
.........
"Well done!"
"The Warriors have been trying to chase points, but they are constantly suppressed by Zhao Chen."
"Zhao Chen's ability to attract defense is really strong."
"If Green didn't help defend, Zhao Chen would have made a layup on his own, and the result would be the same."
Green was a little annoyed, but Curry patted Green and told him it was okay.
If Zhao Chen was so good at defense, the Warriors wouldn't be in this situation.
When Zhao Chen played in the Western Conference Finals, he showed off his offensive and passing attributes. These attributes make him more difficult to defend than Durant.
Durant is a sharp assassin, and Zhao Chen is the kind of commander who commands countless soldiers!
Warriors attack.
Curry finally found an opportunity. Under the cover of Green and Iguodala, Curry ran out of the gap at a 30-degree position on the right side, caught the ball and shot! !
Westbrook's defense was in place, but it didn't stop Curry from hitting a three-pointer!
42 to 34
Oracle Center cheers again.
Curry continues to bring hope to the game!
The fierce competition continues.
