(2nd Update)

After lying on the ground for a while, Durant then limped off the court with the help of his teammates.

Judging from his ability to barely walk, his injuries are not very serious.

But there is a high probability that he will not be able to return to the game.

Without Durant's scoring output, the Warriors are immediately at a disadvantage, although Curry + Thompson is still the league's top outside combination, but it is obviously less powerful than a little less than a Durant situation, and Curry and Thompson feel very average in this game.

What's more, Durant's accidental injury also made the Warriors players panic and absent-minded, even if the current game is the most critical battle of Tianwang Mountain, they can't muster all the energy to deal with it.

In this case, in the second half of the third quarter, the Lakers took the initiative in the game, and in the fourth quarter of the game, under the leadership of Wang Feng, they played a wave of 12:2 attacks, which widened the difference to more than double digits in one fell swoop.

The game completely lost suspense, and in the end, the Lakers won the crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain 106-98 and took the lead in the match point 3-2.

Such a result surprised everyone.

No one could have imagined that the development of the plot would be like this.

Barkley couldn't hold back his ecstasy in the live broadcast room, and laughed wildly on the spot.

"Shaq! Did you see that? Sark! Does this count as karma? I don't think I can use the evening dress you prepared for me, but it doesn't matter, you can change it to a larger size and use it for yourself! ”

The Warriors' upset loss of the battle of Tianwang Mountain is not the most fatal, and now everyone is most concerned about Durant's injury.

That night, Durant's MRI report came out.

Luckily, Durant's injury wasn't a serious injury, but unfortunately, he sprained his ankle and it was a more serious third-degree sprain that would require him to be out for about six weeks or so.

Six weeks, close to a month and a half, but the G6 of the Western Conference Finals is about to be played in a day's time, and in theory, Durant has already been reimbursed for the season, and will miss all the games in the next Western Conference Finals and the possible Finals.

This is undoubtedly a heavy blow.

Durant is the Warriors' most consistent offensive firepower and one of the main reasons why the Warriors have swept the league.

Once Durant is missing, the combination of Curry + Thompson, although it is also the top team in the league, is no longer the favorite to win the championship, and it cannot even compare with the Lakers in terms of hard power on paper.

The Warriors are finished.

Who would have thought that at the beginning of the season, Cousins came to vote with a low salary and formed the five-star Warriors who shocked the whole league with five real All-Star players, and the Warriors, who were called by countless fans as the NBA finale, would actually fall on injuries.

Cousins was reimbursed in the division finals, and Durant was reimbursed in the Western Conference finals, which is too unlucky!

But Wang Feng knew very well that this was already calculated.

In another time and space, after Cousins and Durant were injured one after another, the Warriors still went all the way to the Finals, and then on the Finals stage, Durant forcibly returned with an injury, but he tore his ligament in just a few minutes on the court, resulting in the reimbursement of the season for the following year.

And it wasn't just Durant who was unlucky, Thompson also suffered a torn cruciate ligament in the G6 Finals game, and then failed to appear in the NBA for two and a half years.

One round of playoffs, three stars are reimbursed for the season, and this is the Warriors of the 18-19 season, a collapsed dynasty.

……

Durant's injury did not make Wang Feng feel too much joy, although from a rational point of view, the lack of a big player for the Warriors is indeed a great thing for the Lakers.

At present, the Lakers, who have a match point in hand, have more than eighty percent of the certainty of eliminating the Warriors and successfully advancing to the Finals.

But for Wang Feng, it is still a pity that he does not have the opportunity to defeat the strongest warrior team in full state head-on, after all, such a supercarrier team may be difficult to appear again in the future league for decades.

This may be the so-called gain and loss.

On May 25, the Western Conference Finals G6, leading 3:2, the Lakers, who had already won the match point, came to the Warriors' home court, but did not give the Warriors any chance.

119:108, with a total score of 4:2, the Lakers eliminated the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, returning to the Finals stage after 9 years, and will face the Toronto Mongols, who also eliminated the Milwaukee Bucks 4:2.

At the post-game press conference, Lakers head coach Walton was in high spirits and proud, while Warriors head coach Kerr looked quite helpless.

At this moment, looking at Wang Feng, Kerr and most of the Warriors coaching staff and management staff have the same thoughts in their hearts, that is, regret.

At the beginning, they voluntarily gave up renewing Wang Feng's contract for the sake of Durant, which led to the 16-17 season, when the Warriors lost to the Cavaliers and lost the championship.

Last season, the king finally returned, re-lifted the O'Brien Cup, and wanted to continue to defend the title this year, but they never expected that they would lose in the hands of Wang Feng again.

If...... It's just that if the Warriors chose Wang Feng at the beginning, what would the current Warriors be like?

First of all, the championship in the 16-17 season will definitely not be lost, after all, the Cavaliers' salary space is absolutely unable to sign Durant, Durant can only choose to join a stronger team, but it will definitely not reach the level of the Warriors and Cavaliers.

As a result, the Warriors are now four in a row and have a great chance of winning five in a row this year!

It's a pity, it's a pity......

Thinking this in his heart, Cole did not express his heart when he was interviewed by reporters.

"The injury of the main players is something that no one can predict and avoid in advance, we can only say that our luck is a little bit worse, congratulations to the Lakers for returning to the Finals. As for the Warriors, we really need a good rest, Kevin and Drummond are both out of contract, and our priority is to keep the main players and continue to be competitive. ”

Having said that, after this fiasco, will Durant continue to renew his contract with the Warriors?

Before you know it, Durant has played for the Warriors for three seasons, but in these three seasons, he has sacrificed personal data, salary compensation, and countless infamy, but he has only gained a championship trophy and FMVP.

Is such an exchange really worth it for a top superstar in the league like Durant?

What's more, if the Warriors, whose salary cap has exploded this summer, want to keep both Durant and Green at the same time, then both of them need to make appropriate pay cuts, and the salary cut is not low.

Durant, who has taken a pay cut for three consecutive seasons, will continue to take a pay cut after his failure, how many top superstars can accept such treatment?
