Chapter 958: 3 Rounds and 2 Wins

In the first two matches, the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw.

Although the Warriors won the second big game, the NBA is not a small score, you win by 58 points, and you win by 1 point.

In the third game, he came to Sacramento, and returned to Saca after 15 years.

The 2002 Western Finals can be said to be the eternal pain of the kings.

Divac didn't catch the backcourt rebound and was choked by Hawley; The seventh referee is an eternal mystery, and the gorgeous king is forever painful.

Today, the king led by Li Liang is a completely different king from 2002.

This team is not flashy, but the offense is just as explosive.

In each position, the individual ability is more outstanding, especially with the real first person in the league.

The third battle, the center of Golden One, the sea of purple.

Tonight, the Kings handed out a purple T-shirt to every fan in attendance, making it feel like they were in a sea of purple tulips.

The Warriors' yellow and King's white jerseys resemble the stamens of a flower in a patch of purple.

The Sacramento's passion for basketball is definitely not lacking.

In a small city like this, there are often a handful of professional sports teams that are extremely fanatical.

It's a huge pressure for any team to play here.

The Warriors players are under tremendous pressure, and Kerr has stressed before the game that this will be an extremely tough series.

"If we win, we've succeeded."

Kerr said very simply, for them, the Western Conference Finals are the Finals.

Currently, the Eastern Conference Finals are played between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics.

These two teams, no matter which one makes it to the Finals, will not be a match for the Warriors or Kings.

It's like last year, the Thunder and the Warriors, whoever wins is the champion.

The Cavaliers, who have James and George, are vulnerable in front of the Western Conference champions.

This year, James learned from the West, and even if he went to a Harden, he couldn't bring the East up.

The only one who can drive the east by himself is Li Liang.

In the third battle, the two sides fought extremely fiercely.

The Kings swept away the decline of the second game, and at the beginning of the first quarter of the third game, they bombarded the Warriors with the momentum of the home court.

In the first quarter, the Kings beat the Warriors 40-33 and led the Warriors by seven points.

Li Liang and Gordon each hit three three-pointers, and Rondo hit two three-pointers.

After that, the two sides began to see-saw, and the Warriors approached the score little by little, but at the critical moment of the king, Li Liang could always stand up and pull the difference away by the first point, just not to let the Warriors tie.

At the end of the first half, the Kings led the Warriors by four points.

At the last minute, Cole made a small mistake.

In fact, this is not a mistake, that is, after Li Liang hit a three-point shot, followed by another break to win the ball, and after the three-point re-hit, he did not call a timeout.

Cole hesitated.

Losing the first game with one less timeout, Kerr had to learn his lesson.

Because the first half was almost over, Kerr was reluctant to call another timeout.

Who knows, Li Liang just grasped this psychology and scored 12 points in a row in the last minute of the first half!

Three three-pointers, plus a 2+1 pull-up jump shot under the basket, directly widened the difference between the two sides from 4 points to 15 points!

The Warriors relied on free throws alone to score 1 point.

4 points, 15 points, it's a world of difference.

Cole was caught off guard by Li Liang because he saved a timeout.

The great thing about a player-coach is that the game can be controlled by one person.

If Mike Brown was the head coach, it would be nice to see Li Liang tired and want to take a timeout to replace him.

In that case, Li Liang would really knock Brown's bald head out.

The margin was 15 points, and things were bad for the Warriors.

At the start of the second half, the Kings, who had a 15-point advantage, played more relaxed.

But the Warriors were really strong, they calmed down, played steadily, and recovered 10 points in the third quarter.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, Curry and James hit three points in a row to overtake the score!

In a critical moment, the King's substitute Guy stepped up.

When Li Liang was chased and intercepted, Guy suddenly burst out of the small universe, and even shot with a sudden throw, scoring 6 points.

In terms of defense, the warriors still insist on firmly watching Li Liang, and the others look at the providence.

Providence tonight is clearly on the king's side.

Guy's outburst alleviated the king's crisis and allowed the king to regain the upper hand.

In the final minute of the game, the Kings led the Warriors by three points at 101-98.

Another three-pointer, the Warriors tried two three-point shots from the outside, but they didn't hit.

With 14 seconds left in the final game, Li Liang broke through to get rid of the defense, and passed the ball to the inside under the double bag.

West catches the ball, pushes Green away, and makes a layup with his right hand!

It was a lethal goal that sealed the win for the Kings.

And the Warriors encountered the same dilemma as in the first game - there were too many cards in their hands, and when it came to the critical moment, they did not have a backbone, but they could not play.

Curry, Thompson and James all missed three-pointers at crucial moments.

You say that they are not good at personal ability, but if you look at the data, it is very good.

If there is any problem, it may be that James has replaced most of Green's functions, resulting in Green's role being weakened.

But Green is going to take another starting spot.

At the same time, the Warriors' bench is quite weak.

Guy, Barnes, and West all played key roles on the Kings' bench tonight.

Li Liang's rotation is quite bold.

Cousins, although still a starter, is already a fake starter.

He will be replaced in the first quarter for a while, and West will stay on the court at the critical moment and complete the fatal blow.

This veteran who won the championship with Li Liang during the Pacers period is really trustworthy.

In the end, Thompson hit a three-pointer from the outside, but it was too late.

The child died, and the milk came.

The Kings defeated the Warriors again by 2 points at home 103-101 and took a 2-1 lead.

It was another narrow victory, the Kings won thrillingly when they won and lost happily.

Time was only one day apart, and the fourth battle between the two sides, the same plot was staged.

The Warriors, who had experienced the defeat in the last game, adjusted their mentality, and the whole team broke out again.

It's true, if you don't lose, you won't play, and if you don't get beaten, you won't know how to shoot.

The Golden One Center became the Warriors' shooting range.

In this game, James dished out a career-high 13 assists in the playoffs.

Curry and Thompson hit a combined 13 three-pointers, a ferocious firepower, and beat the Kings into a sieve from the first quarter.

led by 17 points in the first half, and in the second half, he chopped melons and vegetables all the way, beating the king all over the head.

Even if Li Liang opened the hanging, he couldn't stop the opponent's three-point explosion.

Demerit, in the fourth game, the Warriors 113:95, winning is another big win.

Finally, the Warriors regained home-court advantage and brought the series to Game 5, the Battle of Kings Mountain.

In four games, the Warriors won the Kings by 40 points, but the big score was the same.

If the Warriors can even out their hands in Game 1 and Game 3, maybe they have swept the Kings 4-0.

Now, they are on the same starting line, and the series has become a best-of-3 series.
