Oracle Arena.
During the timeout, players from both sides took a break off the court.
The hosts and commentators in the studio are also discussing the game.
In order to attract more fan interaction, the studio also launched a poll online on which of the two teams is more likely to win the game!
At this point, the voting percentages of both parties have come out. As many as 75% of people think that the Golden State Warriors can win, while only 25% of people think that the Minnesota Timberwolves have a chance to win. .
Such a disparity also means that most fans believe that the Golden State Warriors can win.
"Oh! This result does not seem surprising. In fact, I also think that the Golden State Warriors can win... The Minnesota Timberwolves can only rely on Zhao's performance. He cannot carry a team by himself." The team’s…”
In the studio, host Smith spoke.
The commentator on the side also quickly expressed his opinion, "I think the same as you. I think the Warriors can win the game. The only difference is that I don't think they can win this game easily. Zhao's changes to the Timberwolves It was an immediate impact. His presence completely transformed this weak team and made them full of fighting power..."
At the same time, on the other side of the ocean in China, CCTV Sports was also broadcasting the game live.
For the results of this game, they also launched a special poll on the Internet. After all, they don't belong to either of those two camps. The views of Chinese fans seem to be more objective.
However, no one expected that after the start of the second quarter, the turnout showed an incredible contrast.
"Okay, China TV Sports Channel, we are now back to the show... After a short commercial, the preliminary results of the online voting have been released..."
“This result is obviously very surprising...The vast majority of fans think that the Golden State Warriors can win, yes, they currently account for 90%... This means that only 10 percent of people think the Timberwolves can win..."
"In fact, I'm guessing that if it weren't for Zhao Feiyang, I'm afraid there would be no support rate of 10%..."

Similarly, even the Bay Area fans at Oracle believed from the beginning that the Warriors could easily win this game.

"Don't be nervous, everyone, just relax and play. What we have to do now is to stabilize the score and reduce mistakes..."
As the team leader, Zhao Feiyang opened his mouth to encourage others.
While head coach Philip Sanders put on the second team, he also encouraged the players, "We are only 6 points behind, which proves that the Warriors are not as strong as we thought... Just like I analyzed when watching the tape before, we have to defend well..."
"Kevin, when you play the second position, I'll ask Rubio to help you... Nikola, you have to keep an eye on the opponent's flank, and I'll leave the front line to you..."
call out.
The referee's whistle sounded and the game started again.
Substitute players from both sides took to the court.
As the core, Zhao Feiyang sat on the bench to rest. After playing the first quarter, he is currently full of energy and is not worried about any physical problems.
The only thing that worries him is whether the Warriors will take this opportunity to widen the point difference. If so, the Timberwolves' deployment may be messed up.
That wasn't what he wanted to see.
In the rest of the second quarter, the Timberwolves' bench did not stretch as fans expected. Although the inside defense was not very good, Kevin Martin and Ricky Rubio on the outside performed fairly well. Yes, the two led the team to play steadily, but they did not let the Warriors' bench expand too much.
By the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 61 to 66.
The Timberwolves are five points behind.
After the halftime break, seeing that the team was lagging behind, Zhao Feiyang came on the stage again. When the Warriors saw Zhao Feiyang on the team, they did not rush to send Stephen Curry, but instead sent substitute guard Shaun Livingston.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Timberwolves served.
Zach LaVine advanced with the ball, and after halftime, the ball was given to Zhao Feiyang. Sean Livingston chose to keep an eye on Zhao Feiyang, and from the first moment he defended directly to interfere with Zhao Feiyang's dribbling movements.
In the past, when he was with the Warriors, Sean Livingston always liked to play one-on-one with Zhao Feiyang in competitions. At that time, he basically lost more than he won. Now that he has finally reached the official arena, Sean Livingston Ston very much hopes that his performance can suppress Zhao Feiyang.
As soon as the two of them met, Sean Livingston's hand reached towards Zhao Feiyang.
He thought he could swat away Zhao Feiyang's dribble. Unexpectedly, the next second, Zhao Feiyang made a change of direction and directly shook him away and entered the basket.
Seeing that he was passed, Sean Livingston also chased after him.
But Zhao Feiyang didn't give him a chance to catch up and block the shot. He shot a throw as soon as he entered the two zones.
Uh-huh.
The basketball hit the basket steadily.
"Damn it!"
"I almost managed to guard him..."
Sean Livingston was a little angry.
It's the Warriors' turn to attack.
Sean Livingston advanced with the ball. Before he had passed halftime, Zhao Feiyang came to him. First, he kept extending his hand to interfere with the temptation, and then used his body to block his path.
"Sean, come on! I know you want to get rid of me...Don't pass it on to other people, stay one-on-one with me..."
"Take back your victory!"
Zhao Feiyang kept talking to induce him.
Although Sean Livingston's task was to guard Zhao Feiyang and organize the team's offense, under the stimulation of such words, he forgot Coach Steve Kerr's instructions and directly went into a one-on-one stance with Zhao Feiyang. Feiyang started working alone.
The two met each other, and Sean Livingston dribbled the ball behind his back to find an opportunity to break through to the left. It seemed that his movements were very agile, but in the next second, Zhao Feiyang suddenly appeared behind him on the left side and snatched him away with a slap. dribbling.
Snapped.
The basketball rolled out, and the whole audience was in an uproar.
