Chapter Twenty-Three: The Aftermath of the Race
"Oh my God! Griffin was slammed to the ground!! This is definitely a malicious foul of a very bad nature, and the Griffin is a measure of no protection at all in the air, which is a vicious move that is enough to cause injury! The on-site commentary said how bad this action was. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Even the Warriors' home commentator had to admit that it was an "out-of-control and unnecessary move."
However, Moore still showed an innocent expression to the referee for the first time, but the next second, Moore was pushed to the ground by Gordon who rushed up, and Davis, who followed him, blushed his neck and spewed dirty words while gesturing to hit Moore.
However, the Warriors will keep Moore firmly behind them, and the referees will separate the crowd.
An enraged Dunleavy roared and protested to the referee and the technical officer on the scene, and Moore was eventually ejected, though the point was that Griffin was still lying on the ground.
Griffin felt a lot of pain in his right back and around his lower back, and there was a tearing sensation, but after lying on the ground for a while, this feeling dissipated very quickly, and Griffin felt that he didn't seem to be in a big deal.
A long timeout allowed the medical staff to check on Griffin's condition, and the head coach nervously asked about Griffin's condition.
"Well, gentlemen, I think he should be fine, but if you're not at ease, I'd suggest quitting."
Griffin, of course, didn't want to quit the game, and immediately said, "No, no, no, I won't quit the game, I did protection when I landed, and it was enough to rest for a while, and there was nothing wrong with that." ā
Dunleavy repeatedly confirmed the news, coupled with Griffin's insistence, and Griffin could only be allowed to continue playing.
"Griffin is back on the field!! Even though he was viciously fouled and fell to the ground, he still returned to the field! Either way, we should give him a round of applause! He's a real man. ā
There was a lot of applause from the Warriors, but Griffin is now thinking about how to win the game, not pretentious, when you're fully committed to winning or losing, you just focus on what's on the court.
The game restarted after such a long hiatus, and now the scale of action is much controlled by the referee, and the defensive intensity has slowly become fragile with the loss of physical strength.
The Clippers were also inspired by Griffin, one by one, like playing chicken blood, desperate rotation defense, excitedly impacting the interior, and playing a wave of 15-3 shockwaves by the minute before the end!
In the end, the Clippers relied on the crazy performance in the final quarter to win the Warriors 118-90 away! Griffin finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds, two blocks and two assists on 5-of-12 shooting, Davis and Gordon scored 25 and 24 points, respectively, and Telfair and Butler also scored 13 and 11 points off the bench.
Warriors Ellis scored a whopping 29 points, but Curry didn't do well with just seven points, hitting just one of four shots from beyond the three-point line, Morrow off the bench with 17 points and Magetti scoring 12 points.
However, the turmoil was mainly focused on the post-game, and many Clippers players expressed their disacceptance of Moore's foul offense, and Dunleavy bluntly said in the post-game press conference that "the Warriors didn't work the game level, which is a pity."
The Clippers official tweet immediately sent out an artistically rendered photo of Griffin returning to the game, which attracted fans very much, and @Warriors official tweet asked for an apology, and the Warriors official tweet apologized for this behavior as soon as possible, and the behavior was fair and generous, but also said that "both players try their best to win on the court, and any behavior is a competitive behavior."
This paragraph was directly quoted by the San Francisco Sports Daily and whitewashed Moore's behavior to the greatest extent, but in the end, Moore still received a two-game ban and a punishment of $25,000W, but the controversy was that Gordon, who stood up for his teammates, was also banned for one game, and Davis also had to pay a fine.
This behavior made Clippers fans and Clippers officials very dissatisfied, and many basketball websites and forums have sparked a lot of discussions, most of which are shameless about Moore's behavior, but some people who understand the ball pointed out that Gordon did want to be banned for the game.
Players such as Ellis of the Warriors declined to discuss the foul, but praised the Clippers' performance, with the exception of Curry, who said in an interview that Griffin was tough and played his own style, and that teammate Moore's behavior was unsportsmanlike. He knows what impact Curry's words will have on him.
Barkley later praised Griffin as the restorer of iron-blooded basketball in the 90s, a true insider, which also sparked discussions and debates among fans about modern basketball and the previous basketball style, of course, this is a later story.
Griffin naturally didn't feel the turmoil that originated from him, because the Clippers would face the Memphis Grizzlies at home the next day, so the Clippers flew back to Los Angeles non-stop.
"Hey dude, do you see your fans on the push tower? What a crazy increase! But this time you did act like a man! Little Jordan kept talking to Griffin on the plane.
"yes yes DeAndrew, I'm a man, Gordon is a man too, he helped me beat up that bastard, so what about you? Oh Gordon! Come and see our good brothers who are righteous and angry! ā
Little Jordan's face was flushed, "Damn, I'm on the bench!" I want to rush out but I can't, do you still doubt the relationship between us?! ā
"DeAndrew, are you a, there is no affection between us!"
Butler, Thorton, Davis, and even Telfair finally joined in and played poker on the way home, and the laughter in the cabin proved that the atmosphere of the team was still very good.
The team has won three in a row, the team atmosphere is also getting better, it is no longer the team that kept losing last year, and has just completely confirmed that Griffin is not injured, and coach Dunleavy has also been in a happy mood recently.
"This team will be a strong team in my hands!" Dunleavy looked at the frolicking team members and secretly set a goal.
The best players of the day's game were LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and Kobe Bryant.
The Little Emperor scored a luxury quasi-triple-double of 33 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists to lead the team to defeat the Knicks, and the quasi-triple-double of 33 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists failed to take a win from the Toyota Center in Houston, and the Black Mamba scored 41 points again to win at home against the Grizzlies.
These players are really trying their own way to change the game to decide the winner, Griffin is still far from this realm at least for now, just take the Warriors, who were caught by their weaknesses and exploited them fiercely, the shooting percentage and scoring are no longer so eye-catching, and even at the end of the game, they are no longer in the offensive tactics.
Talent and hard work are essential to become a superstar on the field, and Griffin already has a talent that others envy, and it's up to him how hard he works and how far he can go.
Far from it, tomorrow's Memphis Grizzlies, with Gasol Garlandorf Jr. and Guy Conlimeo outside, are enough for the Clippers to have a headache.
