1633. The biggest crisis of my career! (5000 words for subscription)

7-of-22 shooting, 3-of-12 three-pointers, and 6-of-8 free throws, Sun Ce only scored 23 points in the third game, although he had 15 boards, but only 3 assists, and 2 blocks were the regular statistics.

There was a chance to win this game and it started so well.

Klay Thompson had his best playoff game since the playoffs, scoring 26 points on 9-of-18 shooting, along with 3 rebounds and 2 assists; Although Paul George only scored 13 points, he had 10 assists, helping Yi Jianlian, Beverley, and Aamir Johnson all score more than 8 points.

But the key balls were not grasped, and the opponent opened up the point difference, and they didn't score those goals, and the opponent played a counterattack.

Overall, the Warriors played slightly better than them tonight.

And the advantage of the Warriors is not particularly big, just dragged it like that, dragged it all the way to the key ball, and then the Warriors grasped it, and they Grizzlies failed to grasp it.

Losing like this, Sun Ce didn't feel much pain, but just exposed their true strength.

Another point, Sun Ce found that when it came to the Warriors' home court, the referee's penalty scale was looser than at their Memphis home court!

This means that in the eyes of the referees' union or the league, their Grizzlies defense is weaker, and they have to blow tighter penalties at their Grizzlies home court to avoid their defensive disadvantage being too great.

And the tendency to blow penalties, the difference is not big, such a popular series, similar strength, high popularity, whoever wins the league is earned.

……

After the first three games, the matchup between the Grizzlies and the Warriors has entered the white heat.

Other series, played in the first seven days, are already close to being decided.

The Bulls and Spurs both led their opponents 3-0, and the Hawks really couldn't beat them; The Jazz played the best game of the series, except for the Spurs scoring 28 points in the first quarter, the Spurs did not let the Spurs score more than 23 points in the last three quarters, and the Spurs only scored 23 points in the fourth quarter, which was the highest in the second three quarters, but the Jazz themselves did not score much, and finally lost the third game 81-85, 0-3 behind the Spurs.

The Bulls and Spurs are basically locked up in the promotion, and there has never been a 0-3 comeback in NBA history.

The Nets, back at home, also rose, beat the Pacers 88-69, a strong comeback, although it is still 1-2 behind, but public opinion generally believes that this series and the Grizzlies and the Warriors are the same, the strength is close, and there is a high probability of playing the sixth game, and it is possible to play a tie-break.

On the 28th, the Mavericks who returned to their home court also pulled back a game, defeating the Lakers 106-101 at home, Ellis made a great contribution to this game, and the Mavericks once sent a combination of Calderon, Carter, Nowitzki, Marion, and sent the ultimate space lineup to Ellis to play singles, because Ellis was hot tonight.

Ellis made 15-of-25 shots and made three three-pointers, scoring a career-high 41 points and scoring 40+ in the playoffs for the first time in his career.

This move, according to Carlisle, said after the game to learn the Grizzlies style of play, and the Grizzlies will occasionally send a combination of Klay Thompson, Paul George, Hardaway Jr., and Yi Jianlian to let Sun Ce play alone.

On the Trail Blazers' side, they fell behind 1-3, and the Thunder held both home courts, retaining the home court advantage they had grabbed, and will go to Portland to play Game 5.

On the Grizzlies' side, after losing to the Warriors in Game 3, they worked the 28th to prepare for the game and study the Warriors' style of play...... I really can't study anything new, the third game is that the Warriors played better, more players stepped up, Iguodala scored a three-year playoff high of 25 points, 25 points can rank the third highest in Iguodala's playoff career, and the five three-pointers in a single game also tied the personal record for three-pointers in a single career playoff game set by the Hawks.

But no matter what, in Game 4, the Grizzlies must rush, if they can win 1 away game, they will be stable when they return to the home game, and they are likely to win the game in 5 games.

With the Warriors' trend of playing better and better, the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous they will be for the Grizzlies!

No way, their Grizzlies started the regular season very disadvantagedly, starting in December, Coach Hollins made a quick decision, abandoning the defense-oriented play that the team has relied on for the past four years to focus on offense, and after a season, it is now almost the strongest form.

Boasting the best offense in the league, but only slightly better than the league average on the defensive end, they are averaging 104.2 points per game in the league during the regular season this season, and their Grizzlies are averaging 103.9 points per game.

The lower limit of strength is there, the level of about 55 wins is not weak, but in the ranks of Western Conference playoff teams, it also belongs to the middle level, and if you want to raise the ceiling, you have to look at the performance of the outside trio.

After a day of preparation, on April 29, Game 4 of the series between the Grizzlies and Warriors arrived.

The Grizzlies really want to win Game 4, and the Warriors want to win this game even more, and no one wants to fall behind 3-1 and fall on the brink of elimination.

In the last game, they did a good job of defending Sun Ce, and deliberately gave Klay Thompson and Yi Jianlian some opportunities, which was to lock Sun Ce, although Yi Jianlian's 17 points and Klay Thompson's 26 points once made the Warriors scramble, but at the critical moment, their Warriors scored three goals in a row to lock up the victory.

But to limit Sun Ce and Paul George from scoring, the Warriors did it.

At 7 p.m., the Grizzlies' away game against the Warriors kicks off.

In this game, Sun Ce came up and played hard!

After the first three games of the series, Sun Ce's physical potion was fully charged, and it was just 48 minutes today!

Its practical star experience card can also be used, however, it can ensure that the probability is very good, as far as the scoring king card, Barica is not very sure, and O'Nealka and the playoff 10+ block card are not very certain.

When using Mutomboka, Sun Ce found a problem, the stronger his strength, the higher the matching degree of using many star experience cards, but if he uses those star experience cards that really have no shooting at all, the side effects will become more and more obvious.

He is already strong in his own right, and his strength lies in his technique and shooting ability, which is supported by static physical fitness.

The scoring champion card is not yet ready to play for his life, and they are currently leading 2-1, so Sun Ce is ready to fight in the first half, and then see if he will try to use Barica in the second half.

If his side plays well overall, Sun Ce will choose to use physical fitness potions and not affect the performance of his teammates because of changes in his playing style.

After the game began, Sun Ce started to shoot down to the basket and gained some advantages for the Grizzlies, and the two fouls from Bo to Tabit at the beginning were very important.

When Curry was hot in the third game, Sun Ce knocked out Tabit and weakened the Warriors' defense by half.

Sun Ce scored 12 points and 4 assists on the offensive end in the first quarter, plus Paul George had two assists in the first quarter, and the Grizzlies scored 31 points in the first quarter and tied with the Warriors!

Curry started really hard this time, scoring 13 points on 4-of-4 shooting and scoring 3 three-pointers!

It's not just the first quarter, Curry is fierce all night tonight!

In the second quarter, Curry continued his touch, but more importantly, his touch, allowing Harden and Iguodala to connect the offense and make up for the disadvantage of Tabit being beaten down by Sun Ce.

After the two fouls on the Tabit side, there was no chance to play later, and he was scolded by Sun Ce, Beverley, and Paul George when he came up.

However, the defensive end could not prevent the Warriors, resulting in fewer counterattacks on the Grizzlies' side, and the Grizzlies defense did not look as good as the regular season because of Curry's outburst in this game.

This dramatically reduced the number of counterattacks the Grizzlies had when they redeployed their run-and-gun lineup in the second half of the second quarter!

The point is that Whiteside doesn't use it tonight!

Iguodala and Curry, Harden have done a good job of mid-to-long shooting, Tabit goes down, the Warriors can only use O'Neal Jr., O'Neal Jr. has a mid-range shot, and Harden, tonight is used to top Yi Jianlian or Amir Johnson, he can actually withstand ......

In this series, Harden's defense is famous, he can defend Paul George on the outside, and he can top Yi Jianlian, Amir Johnson and Larry Sanders on the inside.

The Grizzlies were beaten 27-24 in the second quarter, and at halftime, the Grizzlies trailed by three points at 55-58!

Curry scored 18 points in the half, which was not much, but he made 4 of 4 three-pointers, and he didn't lose a single one! He only took eight shots in the half, 6-of-8, including 4-of-4 three-pointers, 2-of-2 free throws, and made both free throws to score 18 points on just nine shots.

This made the Warriors' offense play very fluid, plus Harden carried Yi Jianlian and Amir Johnson to carry it, did not let the two rush up, and still maintained the lead when the interior defense collapsed due to two early fouls by Tabit and then the third foul after playing 3 minutes in the second quarter.

Sun Ce scored 23 points, 8 boards, 5 assists, 1 block and 1 steal on 8-of-17 shooting in the first half, and the shooting rate was not bad.

But it's still not enough!

The opponent's outside defense is very targeted!

In fact, Harden carried Yi Jianlian and Amir Johnson, and the inside line couldn't hold it, Sun Ce scored 4 goals on the inside in the half, and also got 4 free throws and 4 free throws 3 of them, and scored 11 points on the inside.

But he only made 1 of 4 three-pointers, and the opponent did a good job of limiting his three-point shots.

55-58 at halftime, it was already the score that their Grizzlies team maintained with all their might, and they didn't fall behind too much, so they played steadily, and Sun Ce estimated that he didn't have much chance of winning.

So, when he returned to the locker room at halftime, Sun Ce made a quick decision and chose to use the "playoff player with at least 10 blocks in a single game random player star experience card of the season".

At this time, if there is an Olajuwon, Sun Ce feels that there is a chance to win this game! Olajuwon has a high degree of matching, the last time he used it, he had a 70% match, plus the magician's balance bracelet effect, the big dream card with good technique and good shooting, even if it can't be perfectly matched, the impact on his ability will be smaller.

But......

"Congratulations to the host for randomly getting the Mark Eaton 1984-1985 Edition Celebrity Experience Card ......"

……

91-106, the fourth series between the Grizzlies and the Warriors, the Grizzlies lost to the Warriors by 15 points.

Sun Ce, who scored 23 points in the first half, scored 31 points, 14 boards, 7 assists, 5 blocks and 1 steal in the whole game, and squatted at close range in the second half and didn't come out.

In the second half, Sun Ce actually had 8 points, 6 boards, 2 assists and 4 blocks, although he was affected, but the interior defense did a good job, and in the second half, he scored 8 points with 3 free throws of 5 shots and 2 of 4, 6 defensive rebounds were well guarded, and there were 4 blocks, and the inside line locked the opponent.

With so many star experience cards, Sun Ce knows how to play the inside line and how to guard the inside line well.

But! Sun Ce's overall role was not as good as the first half!

Although he makes up for the lack of interior defense very well, the outside line relies on double 3D, Beverley and Tony Allen, and it is really not enough to face the strongest outside trio of the Warriors!

His individual performance is good, yes, but the strongest feature on the offensive end of his team-mates scoring has not been played, and the Grizzlies have always revolved around him to attack, and his individual performance looks like a pit, but it can actually be considered a pit.

Curry shot 12-of-19 tonight, after shooting 5-of-8 from the field in the first half, 7-of-11 from the field in the second half, 7-of-9 from three-point range and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line in the second half......

Not to mention Sun Ce's pit in the second half, even if he doesn't pit it, he can't stop such a crazy Curry!

As the team gets better and better, Curry, who is starting to enter his prime, is too strong!

And to turn Curry's irascible performance into a win, Iguodala is not as bad as the previous two games, although tonight was not as good as the night before, but he scored 13 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists on 5-of-10 shooting, which is a good way to ensure that the open shot and cooperate with Harden to connect the team.

Harden scored 18 points, 6 boards, 5 assists and 3 steals tonight, and Yi Jianlian's two steals became the key to the Warriors defending the interior line when Tabit only played 15 minutes in the game!

After the game, when Sun Ce was asked in an interview about the reason for tonight's 22 shooting 11 of 31+14+7+5 data of 4 times 5, Sun Ce only replied: "It's all my fault." ”

……

At the end of the first four games, the Warriors tied the score at 2-2! The next two teams have two days of rest, and on May 2, the battle of Tianwang Mountain will be played.

Neither on the road was the worst the Grizzlies could do before they left for the road.

Draw into the battle of Tianwang Mountain, now the trouble is coming!

Why are teams with home advantage so reluctant to draw 2-2 in their first four games? Why do you want to win an away game with all your might?

Because of the 2-2 draw, there is a high probability that both sides have held their home courts, and when they entered the battle of Tianwang Mountain, it happened that the team without home advantage had just won two consecutive victories, and the momentum was like a rainbow!

For the Grizzlies, the most terrible and unwanted situation is coming, returning to Memphis for a night of rest, and after another day of preparation, on May 2, the Grizzlies welcomed the challenge of the Warriors at home, 112-117, and the Grizzlies lost to the Warriors at home!

2-3, the Grizzlies were robbed of the match point by the Warriors!

In this game, Sun Ce played a full 48 minutes like the previous game, shooting 14 of 31, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, which was very good, soaring 37 points, 13 boards, 11 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals, and returned to the home court to raise the rhythm and help the team score 112 points.

In addition to his grandson, Paul George's 23 points, Klay Thompson's 15 points and 4 assists, Yi Jianlian's 14 points, and Whiteside's 7 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks, all did a good job overall.

However, Curry continued his performance in the last game and played better! Curry shot a career-high 8 three-pointers in a single playoff game, and he shot 8 of 12, which was outrageously accurate!

With 14-of-24 shooting, including 8-of-12 three-pointers and 9-of-10 free throws, Curry scored 45 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and only 2 turnovers.

plus Harden's 17 points, 11 boards and 7 assists, and Iguodala's 11 points, 6 boards, 2 assists and 2 steals...... The Warriors have won three games in a row to lead the Grizzlies 3-2!

……

……

Are the Grizzlies going to fall in the first round? This is the first time in Sun Ce's career! The title given by the media was - "The Biggest Crisis in the Lord's Career".

When the Grizzlies were beaten by the Warriors for three games in a row, the attention of this series did not decrease, but increased!

In the regular season this season, Sun Ce has a strong voice as the first person in the league and a large number of passers-by, and there are many fans who want to see him continue to win, which is right.

But his black fans are also among the top three among basketball fans, and Kobe Bryant and James can compete with him to see who has more black fans.

Those who support him will naturally not give up because they have lost three games for the Grizzlies, because they have not lost much, and if Curry hadn't made 14 of 24 shots and 8 of 12 three-pointers, they Grizzlies would have won!

Even if Curry's three-point shooting percentage drops to 50 percent, they have a chance to go into overtime.

But why was Curry seen as an epoch-making player in the original plane?

He is not the strongest one, he has never been the first person in the league, and even after the Warriors had Durant, Curry's personal honor has been suppressed by Durant.

But he's definitely one of the most special players in the league, not comparable to most of the other era superstars in terms of strength, but in terms of specialness, he's as special as O'Neal and Duncan.

Facing Curry, who scored 45 points in a single game, or Curry with such a shooting percentage, it is difficult for Grizzlies fans to blame their own team, because their team played well enough, and Sun Ce, who scored the first triple-double of the playoffs this season tonight and scored the second highest 37 points in the game, has no way to blame.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the injury.

Without Randolph, the inside line can't be chiseled, and it can't be fully exploited by Sun Ce and Paul George's team to play such a grumpy outside shooting performance tonight.

If Randolph is chiseled on the inside, with Sun Ce, Paul George, Klay Thompson, and Yi Jianlian's Central Plains Pitch tonight, Randolph can beat Speights and Draymond Green to fly!

In the case that Grizzlies fans did not give up and looked forward to Curry's next game with hope, black fans saw that Sun Ce might be eliminated in the first round and became extremely active, and the topic of this series and the hype of the media continued to increase!

Also, Curry, who was selected as an All-Star starter in the regular season, has become a superstar in the eyes of many fans in the past two games!
