Lin Ying and Durant watched the live broadcast of this game together.

Before this, Lin Ying was full of interest in this group of conference finals in the Western Conference.

Then their expressions, like everyone else's, were shocked.

The clip about Hayward's serious injury is this: It was Green completing a steal from Davis, and the Warriors played their signature fast break.

However, the Lakers retreated very quickly, and the Warriors' first wave of fast breaks did not work.

Moreover, James had already retreated to the basket at this time, and his defense covered the entire penalty area.

At this time, unless a big man comes in from the inside, it will be very difficult to break through his defense.

But their opponent is the Warriors.

After the first wave of fast breaks failed, their second wave of fast breaks was already in place.

Green's cut in from the middle successfully attracted James' defensive attention, and then he threw the ball directly into the air.

Hayward, who followed up on the weak side, was led into the air by Green's pass.

This looked like a beautiful fast break alley-oop, but at this moment, James showed an incredible reaction speed, turned around,

Then he pushed Hayward in the air.

You can't say that he did it completely intentionally, because like many times in the past, it was just a subconscious thing on his part.

But after all, Hayward did not have the best aerial balance ability like Jordan Lin Ying. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

And the most frightening thing is that his landing posture was very poor, and his leg directly suffered a 90° fracture similar to Livingston's.

The picture is hard to look at.

James didn't know what happened at first. After seeing the referee blow the whistle, he spread his hands as usual and complained. After seeing the referee ignore it, he smiled sarcastically and walked towards the bench.

But at this moment, the referee's whistle sounded again, and James looked back and discovered Hayward's condition.

After seeing Hayward's tragic situation, he was not sure it was his fault at first. After looking up at the replay, he immediately held his head in disbelief.

Then, with some sadness mixed with fear and self-blame, I sat on the bench.

Even in the live broadcast, Lin Ying could tell that James' expression was not fake.

Because unlike the situations that have occurred many times in the past, this time James' team did not fall behind by a big score, and the game had just begun.

In this case, James has no reason to do this.

So this was really just an "accident".

When Hayward was stabilized and put on a stretcher, James adjusted his mood and stepped forward to say a lot of words of encouragement.

Fans also gave encouraging applause at the scene, and everything seemed peaceful.

But after the game, social media went viral.

Some fans couldn't help but brought up all the things that happened to James in the past few times, and directly defined James' behavior as intentional as before;

Moreover, some fans edited the scene of James mocking the referee into a snickering action after causing trouble, which was seamlessly connected;

There are even fans who feel ashamed of James' behavior. After all, when James was with the Warriors last year, he defeated the Spurs in this way.

Although it was not James' fault that time, when a team with one player wins in this way many times, it no longer matters.

The most terrible thing is that the Warriors actually won the game in the end!

After losing Hayward, the Warriors played in chaos in the first half and trailed the Lakers by 15 points at halftime.

If a team suddenly loses a core, it will be difficult to continue to maintain a high level.

Just when everyone thought that the Warriors would definitely lose tonight, in the second half the Warriors turned into a "sorrowful army" and staged a "sorrowful army must win."

They played a pressing style in the second half and continued to hit three-pointers from the outside.

It was a bit like when the Suns played the Lakers, "sacrifice" a Caron Butler/Gordon Hayward, and ultimately won the game.

It is precisely because of this that fans find it even more difficult to accept such a result.

The Warriors without Hayward defeated this seemingly invincible Lakers, but what about the Warriors with Hayward?

The NBA happens every year, and there are many games. Fans have seen too many wins and losses in games. Not to mention strong teams beating weak teams, even weak teams have seen a lot of upsets.

Therefore, no matter what the result of the game is, most fans can accept it. Even if they cannot accept it for a while, it will be diluted by time before long.

But only, only in this situation, when a team wins in this way, it will make people feel uncomfortable.

People who watch football basically do so because they love it, and naturally they like to see pure basketball.

This is also why fans react so strongly every year when there is a black whistle.

But this time, especially what happened to James again, even if it was "unintentional", it was James' push that caused the current situation.

So it makes sense that the fans reacted so strongly.

"So do you think the Warriors still have a chance?"

After the training session on the second day, Durant took Lin Ying and talked about the situation of the Western Conference Finals.

"What do you think?"

Lin Ying asked with a smile.

"I think..."

Durant's words were on his lips but he didn't say them out.

Obviously, he knows that he has too many flags on his back.

"I think the Warriors have a certain chance, but it's not a big chance."

In the end, it was Lin Ying, the octopus Paul, who made the decision.

This is also a very objective judgment.

Although this was an "accident", the topic of balance will always apply in evenly matched duels.

The Warriors suddenly lost a big weight. They may be able to win a game based on morale, but the chance of winning the series is very small.

After all, the Cosmos team that was as strong as Curry and Durant in history was quickly defeated by the Raptors after Durant fell.

"Then it seems we have to be more careful."

Lin Ying's intuition was basically trustworthy, and Durant also said something meaningful at this moment.

Lin Ying smiled after hearing this and nodded.

Although the situation is a bit joking, if you really face the Lakers in the finals, you really need to be careful about this.

Especially if the Nets play relatively smoothly, given James' current situation, it was "unintentional" this time, but it may not be the case next time.

Being prepared means this is the possible matchup.

The conference finals games continue.

The game between the Nets and the Hornets was exactly the same as G1.

The Hornets showed toughness in the last game, but they showed resilience in this one.

These two Butler labels now belong to the Hornets.

They did not lose confidence because of the defeat in the last game and still maintained high fighting spirit.

Although, they still failed to win the game in the end.

The one who broke out tonight was Durant. He had a hot outside touch and made 8 three-pointers in a single game, scoring a high score of 41 points.

Driven by his outstanding performance and Lin Ying's triple-double, the Nets defeated the Hornets for two consecutive games, leading 2-0.

Well, although the game is more difficult, it doesn't seem to make any difference to the Nets.

It can even be said that facing the Hornets is a good thing for them, because such an opponent can allow them to get into shape before entering the finals.

It can be said that everything is stable in the Eastern Conference Finals, but in the Western Conference Finals, something unexpected happened, once again.

No, to be more precise, this may not be an accident.

Before G2 started, the outside world's opinions were almost the same as Lin Ying's.

They feel that the Lakers will not be able to win, but they will be the final winner in the end.

So after the Warriors started G2, they played very aggressively.

The scale of the confrontation on the field was very large. Even if the referee consciously tightened his whistle, people on the field still fell on their backs from time to time.

In this kind of confrontation, someone on the Lakers team was injured this time.

The injured person, well, yes, it was Davis.

Davis has more or less the attributes of glass.

This won't be too obvious during the regular season, but once you enter the playoffs, especially the playoffs with this level of competition, this attribute will be activated.

This time, the balance of victory tipped directly to the Warriors.

And the remaining time of the game also showed that not every team has the resilience of the Warriors, especially for a temporary team like the Lakers.
