"Let's look back at the footage, slow motion, Curry breaking...... Wang Shuang made up for the defense, there was body contact, but there was no movement in his hands, Curry slipped on his own, and then twisted his knee. Curry has always had a knee injury, and he shouldn't have rested well in the regular season. ”

"Tired, too tired, I don't know if there will be news at halftime."

In Tencent's live broadcast room, the host paid close attention to Curry's dynamics.

The same goes for Warriors fans, if their MVP is gone.

Then the danger of this round of the playoffs is greatly increased.

It is not without precedent before.

That was the case with the Chicago Bulls in 12 years.

Originally, the Bulls were the first in the East, but Rose was injured in the first game.

The Bulls lost to the Philadelphia 76ers 2-4, and the NBA also had a black eight for two consecutive years.

If Curry does get injured, the Warriors' 73-win streak would be a huge pity.

For the Lakers, Curry's injury is certainly good news.

In the dressing room, though, Scott cautioned the players not to get complacent.

"No matter what happens to the opponent, being ourselves is the most important thing to win. If your focus is on the other side without a core defender, I don't think you will play well in the second half. Go as planned! ”

Scott is experienced.

He knows that the injury to the opponent's core is a good thing.

But in terms of strength, the Warriors are missing Curry.

It's still very strong, a little stronger than the Lakers.

If the Lakers let their guard down as a result.

And if the Warriors are united.

The Lakers will lose badly.

The playoffs are more than just a paper coach.

It's a contest of spirit and willpower, a contest of team unity.

Any slackness will make the situation irreparable.

Before his debut, Scott was still not worried about Wang Shuang.

"Don't be pressured, Wang, play your performance."

Scott is worried that Wang will be under psychological pressure because of his relationship with Curry's injury.

Obviously, the coach still underestimated Wang Shuang's nerve roughness.

'I didn't have pressure, I said we'd win this fight. Rest assured, the Warriors are dead without Curry. ”

Wang Shuang looked very confident.

Scott said with a tiger face: "I said it, don't let your guard down!" ”

Wang Shuang smiled and said, "I haven't let my guard down, I'm just not so nervous." ”

With that, Wang Shuang and his teammates left the locker room together.

Re-enter Oracle's field from the players' tunnel.

There's a special wall in the passage with a hole in it.

It was in 2007 and was made by Dirk Nowitzki.

That year, the Mavericks had the best record in the league, 67-15.

Ready to challenge for the championship with confidence.

As a result, he was killed by the Warriors of the old Nelson in the first round.

Became the league's No. 1 league player with the highest percentage of first-round wins in NBA history.

Dirk, who was extremely angry in his heart, picked up the trash can and threw it at the wall when he left the scene.

Just make a hole in the wall.

To say that the Oracle Arena is also a bit of a cut corner.

If it is not load-bearing, there will be less material, and it will be passed when it is smashed.

Wang Shuang passed by this hole when he entered the Oracle Arena.

The hole was kept by the arena, protected by a piece of tempered glass.

It's a symbol of honor for the arena, where they once took out the league's No. 1 finish.

Time has passed, and the Warriors are now number one in the league.

Not only the first in the alliance, but also the first in history, unprecedented.

The fans in the stadium made frantic noises to disturb the Lakers players.

But Wang Shuang's heart was unusually calm.

Also calm is Kobe Bryant.

The scene he had experienced was much bigger than it was now.

According to the news given by the Warriors, Curry will not return in the second half, and the specific injury situation will not be available until an MRI is done. I hope Curry is okay, otherwise the 73-win Warriors will lose their MVP, which is a pity. ”

The host's attention is still on the injured Curry.

Players from both sides have returned to the game.

sp; The impact of Curry's absence on the Warriors is huge.

Curry is the absolute tactical heart of this Warriors.

Kerr's pass-and-cut combinations all revolve around Curry.

There is no Curry's super three-point shooting and top-notch air-cut running ability.

The Warriors' passing cut is basically more than half of it.

In the second half, the Warriors used Livingston as their starting point guard.

Livingston is a good defender.

But his style of play is very different from Curry's.

Livingston doesn't shoot threes, but rather a mid-range killer.

When he's on the floor, the Warriors don't play fast.

However, the real change for the Warriors in the third quarter came on defense.

Their defense suddenly intensified in the third quarter, and the intensity was a notch higher than in the first half.

Some teams and the Warriors were able to play hard-fought in the first half.

But in the third quarter, the Warriors will suddenly force to take the game away.

The main change is on the defensive end.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is a disciple of the Spurs.

That's what Popovich's Spurs did.

Playing with you in the first half, let the players warm up and find their form.

Then the third quarter exerted force, and in one fell swoop, he established the advantage.

In the fourth quarter, the game was taken away and the victory was taken.

This pace of play is something Kerr is familiar with and good at.

"Randolph's mid-range jumper missed...... The Lakers haven't scored for three rounds, Green is entangled with Wang Shuang, and the Warriors are fighting back! Klay Thompson! ”

"Clay's counter-attacking three-pointer, it's coming! Hit a three-pointer! Beautiful! ”

The Warriors hit a beautiful three-pointer on the counter.

This is where the Warriors kill the most.

They have a good defense that keeps you from scoring.

Then, after a successful defense, they can easily bombard your basket with three-pointers on the counterattack.

This is different from the Spurs and Pistons of extreme defense in the past, or the Suns and Warriors of extreme offense.

This warrior does his best to combine the two extremes.

As a result, they became the team with the best record in history in the regular season.

A lot of teams have collapsed under the Warriors' high-intensity defense + wave-style three-point offense.

Like the ocean bursting its banks, there is no way to recover.

The Warriors put on a 10-2 offensive surge.

After Thompson hit a three-pointer, the Warriors managed to take a one-point lead.

Scott wanted to call a timeout.

But Wang Shuang pressed his hand to the sidelines.

"Attack, keep attacking!"

Wang Shuang served in the backcourt and gave Kobe Bryant.

Bryant quickly crossed the half court with the ball.

Slip out of the baseline with the ball.

Wang Shuang answered in a high position.

Received a pass from Bryant.

and Kobe Bryant made another hand-to-hand cover.

Bryant almost circled half court.

Close to a full circle.

Under the cover of Wang Shuang's sturdy hand-to-hand blocking.

Found space at the top of the arc.

Hands up and down, mid-range jump shots!

Two point hit!

Wang Shuang and Kobe's high-level duo cooperation.

In the second half of the regular season and in training, the two rehearsed countless times.

Then, Hibbert blocked Green's layup under the basket.

Randolph played to Clarkson.

Clarkson didn't rush and re-gave Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant returned the ball to Wang Shuang first, and then fell to the low post to ask for the ball.

Wang Shuanggao lobs the ball to Kobe.

Kobe Bryant singled Thompson with his back.

The classic turn of the back and go to the bottom line.

Step-back jumper shot!

"Kobe Bryant's back, super difficult, in! Good shot, Kobe Bryant's step-back jumper. The Lakers are coming to their senses. ”

Scott, who was nervous and wanted to call a timeout, put his heart back in his stomach.

Bryant looks to be in good shape tonight.

Even better, he has a great striker around him to help him.
