After the Timberwolves returned from a timeout, both sides moved up the level defensively.

Neither side scored in the next two rounds, which was an ordeal and a test, and only the strong could hold on.

Downs wanted to shoot inside, but was decisively pinched by the Warriors and caused a turnover, and as the Warriors were also forced to stop the ball, there was no good chance to shoot.

When the game entered the last 20 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian received the ball with his back and leaned inside, turned over and pulled it up.

It seems to be a more reckless choice, but the basketball falls into the basket in a graceful arc in the air, and the superstar demeanor.

The Timberwolves chose to let Wiggins single on the last offense, and Zhang Xiaotian calmly blocked in front of the opponent.

Wiggins sat on his back twice, but felt a little unable to sit still.

Time was passing quickly, Wiggins quickly turned around, after a simple feint, Wiggins directly relied on his body to break through to the right, after the two sides made physical contact, Wiggins leaned on Zhang Xiaotian and squeezed, almost drifting and threw the ball out.

Playing with high difficulty, even so, Zhang Xiaotian will not hand over defense to the basket.

He's more powerful, and Wiggins can jump after the two make physical contact, and he certainly can.

Zhang Xiaotian completely blocked the opponent's shooting line, and Wiggins also adjusted his position by feeling, but he was still rubbed by Zhang Xiaotian's fingers on the ball.

The basketball was stripped of some of its power and fell straight down to be picked up by Draymond Green under the basket.

Draymond Green reacted quickly to the Timberwolves and immediately dribbled to the corner, and when the opposing player reacted and rushed up to foul, the clock was running out.

72 wins, tied the record for the strongest Bull, but the season is not over yet.

The Warriors have four games left in the season, and although they have two tough games against the Spurs and Grizzlies, the current state of the Warriors can be described as unstoppable.

73 wins, at this time, if the warriors say they won't play, the people outside won't agree.

The anticipation of a season has come to an end, and both the fans and the media have a special feeling.

The Spurs and Grizzlies have a very innocent feeling that the Warriors have been the public enemy for a season, and suddenly they have become big heroes, and they have become villains.

"What happens to you if you are defeated? Does winning give you anything? That's why a winning streak doesn't make sense, maybe just a cup of coffee or something. ”

Popovich has his style when facing reporters, and what he really thinks in his heart is estimated that others don't know.

Zhang Xiaotian feels that Popovich will not command the team and the Warriors to work hard, if he can win, he will win, and if he can't win, he will not be reluctant, and the Warriors will do their best because of the historical record, the Spurs are really unnecessary, or the playoffs are more realistic.

On April 7, it was the home court of the Warriors again.

The Warriors started off a little excited, not playing very well on the offensive end, but defensively doing well.

In particular, Draymond Green's defense of Aldridge choked the Spurs' interior.

GDP now feels completely soy sauce, and the Spurs have Leonard performed well, and Zhang Xiaotian competed at both offensive and defensive ends.

It's hard to imagine that this is the second-best team in the league.

The Warriors established a double-digit lead in the first half, and Curry exploded in the third quarter to end the game early.

73 wins, so hard and so easy.

Popovich kept yelling on the sidelines during the game, but the old man may be acting, maybe it's true, but the Spurs may be more tired than the Warriors to finish second in the league in the regular season.

Michael Jordan sent a congratulatory message congratulating the Warriors on breaking the 72-win record.

In his statement, Jordan said: "I want to congratulate the Warriors on a fantastic season. Basketball is a sport that has always evolved, and records are meant to be broken. The Warriors have enjoyed their style of play and I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform in the playoffs." ”

"I told my players that the record will never be broken," Cole was delighted, "and now I'm going to say it all over again, I don't think it will be broken." ”

Zhang Xiaotian was interviewed as always, "73 wins are just a passing for me, I always care more about the championship, as for whether the team will continue to improve the record, it depends on the situation." ”

After winning 73 wins, the team seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and set their sights back on the playoffs.

On April 9, the Warriors lost to the Grizzlies on the road, and no one in the main team played for more than 30 minutes, which made fans and media who were still a little expectant sigh.

The next day, they lost to Spurs on the road, and the unbeaten season came to an end at the last minute.

On April 13, most of the attention was on Kobe Bryant's last game, and Kobe Bryant also lived up to expectations and scored 60 points, and his career came to a perfect end.

On this day, the Warriors quietly improved their season win record to 74 games at home.

Not on purpose, just won by the way when the final game before the playoffs was determined.

The Jazz lost their final game to the Lakers and missed the playoffs by finishing ninth in the West by one game.

On the Eastern side, the Heat and Hawks lost at the same time, and the Celtics and Wizards lost at the same time, which also made their record completely unchanged without changing the rankings.

The Warriors are the No. 1 in the West, and their first round of the playoffs is against the eighth-ranked Rockets.

This is also a very popular group of matchups with fans on the other side of the ocean, and Zhang Xiaotian also accepted an exclusive interview with Xu Yi.

The Rockets' record this season is not good, but the roster is actually not bad.

It's just that their defense has dropped a bit compared to last season.

Towards the end of the season, they traded last year's playoff hero Josh Smith back and signed Beasley, who had played the league across the ocean.

The combat power of the two should still be there, it depends on how the head coach uses it.

However, if the Warriors still can't defend against them, they certainly won't have any miracles.

On April 16, the 2015-2016 playoffs began.

The first game between the Warriors and the Rockets also started at the Oakland Arena, the home of the Warriors, and the Rockets specially lowered the height of the starting lineup in order to deal with the Warriors, placing Corey Brewer in the starting lineup and playing one big and four small.

It is difficult for the outside world to understand this kind of initiative to give up his advantages and plan to fight a small lineup with the Warriors, anyway, Rockets head coach Bickerstaff is also temporary, and it is estimated that he is thinking too much.

Following the lineup of the warriors, all those who fantasized that they could learn from the long skills of the Yi to control the Yi all died miserably.

Curry exploded in the first quarter of the game, directly blowing up the Rockets, and the Warriors led by nearly 30 points in the first half, turning the entire second half into garbage time, and the performance of the two teams could not be seen in the playoffs at all.

But under the "mad dog" defense of Rockets guard Beverley, Curry's feet were uncomfortable.

After the game, the Warriors said that Curry's injury was not a problem, but there was an accident in the first game, which cast some shadows on the Warriors' playoffs.
