Chapter 22: Accidents?

The Golden State Warriors were founded in 1946 and joined the NBA, with a long history, Golden State is actually the nickname of California, so the Golden State Warriors are located in Oakland, California. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Speaking of the Warriors, the most famous must be Wilt Chamberlain, the Warriors' crazy Black Eight Miracle in the past few years is still vivid, and the exploits of the bench bandits are still being sung, but Byron Davis can only appear here as a Clippers player.

This year, the Warriors took Stephen Curry, a slightly thin but skilled shooter who formed an energetic backcourt combination with Monta Ellis.

While the Clippers were still on the plane, San Francisco Sports Magazine had already stirred up enthusiasm throughout the city, bluntly saying that Griffin was physically strong and lacked strength, and that the whole team would defend Griffin at any cost to win.

The game was broadcast on NBATV, but Barkley predicted early, "The Clippers will take the win, and I don't think the thin Warriors can stop the Clippers, but I don't think Griffin will be too good hahaha." ”

It's no wonder that the media is rendering, after all, in addition to Griffin, the relationship between the Clippers and the Warriors is not shallow, in addition to Byron Davis, there is also former Clippers player Margety, and the once strong wing is now declining.

By the time the Clippers arrived at Oracle Arena, the entire arena was filled with fans, and Griffin's eardrums were flooded with cheers, "Damn, why are these people so enthusiastic about beating us?" I felt like I was about to catch up with the crowd in Salt Lake City. ”

"Ha, this, I'm afraid you have to look at our lonely Byron and the equally lonely Margeti opposite." Gordon whispered to Griffin.

Gordon, who arrived a year earlier than Griffin, understands better how the former All-Star bearded man was in a low spirit, and has completely entered retirement mode, and no longer has the idea of improving his skills to compete for supremacy.

"Hey guys, the Warriors aren't strong, we've won two in a row, taking advantage of the momentum to win the Warriors will be good for our next schedule. The Warriors are bombarded and fast-paced, and my request is not to be led by their noses, we have to have our own rhythm, and I believe Byron can do that, right? “

Looking at the bearded man and nodded, Dunleavy continued, "The Warriors' interior line is behind us, we have to play to the strengths of Blake and Carman, Gordon has to seize the opportunity, let's go guys, let's take them!" “

Despite the shouts of the Oracle Arena, the Clippers walked into the court, and during the warm-up, Byron Davis and the Warriors' friends greeted each other, and Griffin also took the opportunity to look at the key man on the opposite side, Ellis, the scout report said that the speed was extremely fast, the explosiveness was amazing, and the mid-to-long range shooting was also very sharp.

Rookie Curry has not performed particularly well since the start of the season, and his shooting advantage has not been shown very well, in short, the current team is still led by Ellis.

Camby is still on the bench, and the jump ball Carman lost to Moore, a relatively thin black center, and the entire Golden State Warriors' starting lineup is indeed not at all physically advantageous, and it is bound to be bombarded to the end.

NBA players have limited physical reserves, especially veterans like Byron Davis, who will not be able to play hard in most regular seasons, but when they encounter some special games, such as facing old enemies and facing old clubs, they will fight hard.

For example, Byron Davis, who is now running on the court, has released all his physical strength with a beard, as if he has returned to the days a few years ago, when people here were cheering for themselves.

However, in the face of this group of familiar strangers, he can also talk about the old man and go crazy once.

The rest of his teammates are definitely supporting Big Brother and are all playing for Davis, and it just so happens that the Warriors' defensive focus is not very high, so the two teams are playing very well.

But there is one exception, that is Griffin, the Warriors' interior line takes care of Griffin quite well, as long as Griffin takes the ball, he sticks it directly, and immediately packs it, even if others score.

Griffin played quite aggrieved, and several times he was pulled straight down in the air, and he made 6 free throws after the first quarter, but only hit 3, and scored 3 points pitifully.

However, the excellent play of Davis, Gordon and Thorton firmly held the advantage firmly in the hands of the Clippers, and Davis took a very serious attitude to defend Stephen Curry, which made Curry very uncomfortable.

In the second quarter, the Clippers' rotation was beaten very badly by the Warriors, and Morrow and Margeti teamed up to beat the Clippers' bench to pieces, even if Camby risked several times, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

This change forced Dunleavy to put the starting lineup on the court early, and Davis was a little out of breath, but the Clippers, who are mostly young, still have no problem with their physical strength, especially Griffin, who is eager to go on the court and tear up the dirty interior line on the opposite side.

However, the reality is very cruel, Griffin, who is on the court again, is still like a trapped beast, as long as he has the intention of attacking the inside, he immediately stops with big body movements, and the scale of the referee this time is also very wide, conniving at the growth of this behavior.

At halftime, Griffin finally took the offensive rebound that Gordon missed, and smashed the whistle dunk with both arms like a tiger!

Griffin let out a rare yell, and he was not to blame, it was his eighth point in the half, but he made 10 free throws.

The half-time score was 68-65, which can be regarded as a high score, and the shooting rate is not low, and the offensive rhythm is also very fast, which is a worthwhile offensive battle for fans.

At the end of the halftime, the two sides began a fierce contest again, Monta Ellis took the lead, breaking through the Clippers 2 in a row, Griffin was completely more than capable of strength, not only that, with the help of a simple blocking, Ellis pulled up, a very simple routine, but it was a goal.

In just four minutes, Monta Ellis scored 11 points in a row to overtake the score, and Dunleavy had to call a timeout to curb Ellis's hot hand.

"Kaman, you go first, Camby up, give me a good guard in the penalty area, Griffin continues to kill the inside, don't be afraid of not scoring penalties!" Dunleavy was also upset, Carman's usual intensity was still very strong, and when it came to this kind of physical confrontation, he was a little chicken.

In fact, Griffin wants to suggest replacing Jordan Jr., although Jordan Jr.'s defensive literacy and positioning still have some problems, but he and Griffin have more tacit understanding and passion, and Camby has almost zero communication with Griffin on the court.

After the timeout, Ellis was no longer in his hands, and the Clippers took advantage of the opportunity to score points through Telfair and Rasubatal, and Camby also played his role as a meat shield, and the Warriors' shooting percentage in the restricted area dropped sharply.

By the time the fourth quarter came, the two sides had entered a white-hot stage, and the physical collision became more and more intense, and the fans were very enjoyable to watch, but the players didn't think so, "Isn't it just a regular season, do you think it's the Western Conference Finals?!" "This is probably the voice of many players.

In the last 6 minutes of the quarter, Griffin received Davis's ball, and in the face of the substitute Randolph who made up for the defense, a shooting feint actually shook him, such an unexpected opportunity Griffin of course had to seize it, and his legs strode to the inside!

Gordon and the others are already on the court, and it is no surprise that this is a ten-level dunk!

But the substitutes who stood up and cheered on the bench hadn't sat down yet, and the accident happened! I saw that Griffin, who was already in the air, was jumped up by the Warrior inside Moore and slapped Griffin directly in the face, and Griffin fell heavily on the floor like a plane that was hit! The dull voice made the reporters on the sidelines tremble unconsciously!
