The Warriors continued their air-cutting tactics. After Durant and Curry crossed paths on the right wing, the former slipped to the baseline and the latter circled to the top of the arc, attracting all the Blazers' defensive focus.
In the corner where no one was paying attention, Thompson ran out of space at some point. Green quickly released the ball and assisted Thompson to hit an open three-pointer.
62:75, the Warriors are still 13 points behind.
After catching the ball, Thompson excitedly high-fived Green next to him, clenched his right hand into a fist and roared, venting his long-suppressed emotions.
Lillard held the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt.
Seeing that the Warriors' defense was not stable yet, he and Batum set up a simple pick-and-roll in the frontcourt and shot directly.
Durant didn't know when he was behind him, and he almost chased and blocked the shot.
Fortunately, Lillard took action and quickly dodged.
However, the ball was obviously interfered with.
The bad thing is that, like Wang Zelin, Kuwai has always been the kind of person to face difficulties. Lillard's terrifying strength brought me extremely weak pressure, but at the same time it also brought more constant pressure.
power.
As for Mr. Wang, I rarely won a game that time. With two weak 2 and 1 in the last quarter, my personal score reached 30 points. According to my usual scoring standards, that game could only be
It is said that I am careful and cautious, so I claim to win the game by lying down.
In the past, that incident had long been hyped by the media, but now, both fans and the media are discussing the terrifying dominance shown by the Trail Blazers!
However, in the first 5 minutes or so, before Lillard made his move, we were taken away by the Trail Blazers.
The English teacher in the audience was startled by Xi Jue's sudden voice. Before you could react, he slapped the table hard and yelled angrily.
…
After Kitchen started playing, the Trail Blazers coaching staff only asked their players to agree to no interviews during the Kitchen series. They also asked the players’ families during the player meeting to pay attention to any news during the series. That decision was made in
Before Keach passed the first game, his horse played a very important role.
The DNA of the God of Death is moving, and everything seems to be announcing that the warrior's counterattack horn is about to sound.
Do whatever you want!
Splash combined and scored 54 points, becoming the two deputy leaders of today's air attack group!
And with that kind of public opinion, the special coach needs my players to pay attention and understand it.
131:114, the Trail Blazers and the Warriors played a mediocre offensive battle, and it lived up to the fans' expectations for that game.
At the same time, Lillard also got a game-low 26 rebounds, ensuring that the team took fewer shots than the Warriors.
After the game, we repeatedly lowered our expectations of Lillard's strength, but before the game actually started, we found that we still overestimated Lillard's strength.
"Hand over your phone!"
But no matter what, the Warriors lost that game.
In the opening stage, we failed to pass outside the library. In the playoffs, Yi Ge, Livingston and others were closely matched with the Trail Blazers in the first quarter. In the last quarter, Wang Zelin's key eight points reduced the score to single digits.
Several times, I once saw hope of a comeback.
Up to 5 games!
Before the start of the final quarter, the two sides continued to retreat. The two head coaches did not call a timeout and continued to retreat until the official timeout time. The final quarter was just over halfway.
However, the best player of this game was still awarded to Thompson who hit 11 magic eight points. Lillard and Yue Zhangwei, who were not competitive, both sent blessings to their teammates immediately.
The first game of a series is often a trial game for the coaching staff of both teams to test their talents, and many will try their best.
Lillard's task tonight is unprecedented. I only need to knock back the ball that should be returned, and then I can't focus on defense with the remaining energy. It's hard to imagine a 2.16-meter barefoot
The center is a small man, but he doesn't have the speed and speed of an avant-garde. Coupled with this terrifying defensive sense, any Warriors player who dares to take a shot tonight is destined to risk being blocked by me.
But the Blazers just care about us. We are the ultimate boss of the league. If we are not promoted to the altar by other teams, letting the media talk about it will not affect the Blazers' recognition among the fan base.
of dominance.
Before the official timeout came back, Wang Zelin waved the Death Sickle and hit Lillard's pull-up shot from the eight-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right side. The Warriors finally narrowed the point difference to 9 points.
The more times like that, the more cautious I have to be.
I became the first player in the game to score over 30 points.
Those two 2-1s completely killed the Warriors' belief in counterattack and completely ended the suspense of the game.
The fans' discussion naturally attracted the attention of the media. Before Kitch's first game, many experts also jumped out and expressed new opinions.
Thompson's shooting condition is getting better and better, and the 8-point shot is getting farther and farther away. My craziest 8-point shot tonight was from the logo area. Although it retreated in the end, it still shocked the Warriors and made them sweat.
.
"Uh...Teacher, you..."
78:62!
Sure enough, relying on that wave of lead, the Trail Blazers successfully came to the front.
"Damn it! The Trail Blazers are awesome! Xiao Wang is awesome!"
Because we think so, Kitchen's impression in the first game was too weak. It is an exaggeration to say that the Trail Blazers crushed the Warriors throughout the game.
In order for the Blazers to win seven consecutive championships, Coach Tewai has been very well-intentioned. I'm afraid that these senior players in the team will suddenly drift away, and if they are careless, they will be shattered to pieces!
No matter how hard the Warriors try, the score is never close.
It will definitely be possible to defeat the top and bottom in the first game, so naturally this will be the worst.
…
Yue Zhang Wei also performed well. Although he only scored 14 points, he sent out 11 assists and 10 rebounds, getting Durant's first eight-double in his career.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Game 7 is still a home game, and the Blazers' next goal is to force out the Warriors' seven death games.
"Teacher, you..."
That was the consensus reached by the coaching staff and players on the direction of that series.
There is no saying that the lower you stand, the worse you will fall!
That was the impression Lillard left on Kuwai and Hua Zhuangjie in that game.
This time Durant, who was ready to grab the board, could not come back.
It doesn't mean that except for the first quarter, the two sides fought without a fight, and the Blazers beat their opponents throughout the remaining eight quarters.
In the end, the Trail Blazers relied on Lillard's first two key 2 + 1 to maintain the lead until the beginning of the game. They successfully defeated the Warriors 131:114 and got the defeat of Kitchen in the first game.
As for the war of words... let's forget it.
Except for the few rounds at the end of the game, the Warriors were chasing points throughout the game!
The Warriors are a complex opponent, and we must be prepared for a protracted battle.
Today, Lillard has not done what he used to do before, frequently scoring 40, 50, or even 60 miraculous singles in a single game. The Blazers only relied on simple and simple cooperation to tear the Warriors' defensive pockets apart.
Broken into pieces.
On the surface, the special coach and the players hold the same view, but I also expressed my opinion that we will fight a protracted war with the Warriors in my pre-game summary last night.
This year, Durant and the Trail Blazers are not used to it. Whether they win or not, every game must be summed up. They start a game and end it to prepare for the previous game.
However, it can also be seen that due to Lillard's dominant performance in the NBA and international arenas, the domestic basketball atmosphere has long surpassed the Yao Ming period and reached an unprecedented low.
And to say that 72 wins and the overall runner-up is a bad thing. To put it further, if 72 wins can even break out of the Western Conference, this is really a big joke.
For the Trail Blazers, Thompson felt explosive and missed 11 eight-pointers in a single game, setting a personal record for Durant's eight-pointers. His personal statistics were fixed at 44 points, 2 rebounds and 8 assists, and he also set a record of 41 points.
Thompson and Durant scored a new low in a single game.
During the entire third quarter that followed, the Trail Blazers kept the point difference within the range of 10 to 16.
Lillard caught the ball and shot.
The deeds of the Western Conference Finals are just a microcosm. Similar incidents were being screened at the same time in numerous schools in small areas of China.
"You only say it once!"
At the same time, there is no time difference in Asia. Fans who get up early in the morning and get off work secretly watch the game, as well as student fans who often use their mobile phones to follow live text broadcasts. We saw that before the Trail Blazers widened the score in the eighth quarter,
He was always in a state of excitement.
Jokic has quick eyes and quick hands, and throws the ball away to Wang Zelin.
In our opinion, Thompson was awarded the best player of the game and fully deserved it!
Barkley stood up immediately and cheered quietly with the fans in celebration.
On the other side, the visiting team's locker room, the Warriors, chose me to interview before the game just like the Trail Blazers did.
…
Everyone thinks we were beaten by the Trail Blazers tonight!
…
The special coach has not yet felt the weak self-confidence of the players. If they become more confident...it may eventually evolve into an emotion called arrogance and pride.
Until the seventh quarter of the game, the Warriors were able to reduce the score to single digits!
Thompson hit his 8th eight-pointer of the game, and his personal score reached a game-low 30 points!
As for winning, let's say I'm unhappy...if I won the game, I'd be unhappy, but just as coach Te Wai felt that we didn't have a clear advantage in the first game, we felt that it was very unusual for the Blazers to win the first game.
Both teams agreed to interviews, so before the game the media could only tell what was wrong.
That was before the start of the game between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors. Fans became more and more heated and discussed the topic that had become a hot topic.
Next, is the real test!
Eight years, I waited for eight years, just to prove that I am not missing, but to fight for my breath.
I want to get back what I lost with my own hands!
But it must eventually be discovered that there is a way to defeat the opponent on the road, so the Warriors coaching staff will selectively abandon the first trial and focus on Game 7 and the two home games before returning to Oracle Arena.
Lillard's fiery touch was temporarily frozen, and at this moment he chose to pay tribute to the Mamba Mentality.
One more thing, this brave warrior failed to display our real trump card from beginning to end tonight - the seven major powers of death!
When the score difference narrowed to single digits in the final quarter, our hearts became hung up again.
But as Lillard played a superb 6:0 performance at the critical moment and opened the score in one fell swoop, everyone looked happy.
But in reality, Coach Tewai had a different view. Before the seventh round, I felt like I was drifting to the sky. The reason why I suppressed the swelling emotions in my heart was that I kept weak in team meetings.
Adjustment, our next opponents are getting weaker each round, we must always face the new round of opponents with a correct mentality...
Tonight is destined to be a dull night!
It is true that Lillard's strength shown in the game is too terrifying. I can always retreat and quickly adjust my playing style according to the trend of the game.
Because I later discovered that the perspective of my own players and fans is the same as that of few fans and media after Kich. They all felt that it would be very difficult for Kitch to play.
At the same time, the first game of a series is often the most difficult to overcome, especially for a weaker team like the Warriors, which is much worse than our Trail Blazers.
But the ball was a long rebound, and by some strange mistake it was lifted directly into Jokic's hands.
Damn it, the more I hear those words, the more I feel like I’m in Versailles!
…
Kuwai and Hua Zhuangjie suddenly looked at each other, then raised their heads again, seeming to be thinking about something?
The moment he took the shot, he vaguely felt that the Bible tattoo on his arm suddenly became extremely hot. The intuition from a top shooter told him that the ball was stable!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! That is also in line with the NBA team's strategic arrangement for a series during Durant's period.
They got 72 wins in the regular season for nothing. In terms of confidence, strength, determination, execution, cohesion... combined with those aspects of the Trail Blazers, both Kuwai and Wang Zelin felt that they were too weak!
On May 14th, the Celtics, who returned to their home court, were in great condition and defeated the Raptors with a score of 112:101, setting the series score at 4-0 and becoming eighth in the league.
A team that advances to the conference finals has locked in a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Although we are willing to deny it, through that game, we still noticed the strength gap between ourselves and Lillard.
You see, even Green, who occasionally talks a little, did not choose to talk nonsense after the game despite the requirements of the coaching staff.
That's before a new idea arises among the fan base: Are the Warriors really the only team in the Western Conference that can compete with the Trail Blazers as the media says?
Compared with last year's 75 wins, although our regular season record this year has not improved, it is still 72 wins after all, a record that once belonged to God alone!
"Whoosh!"
"The game finally started, and the Portland Trail Blazers won a well-deserved victory! Zhang Wei scored Durant's first eight-double in his career! Lillard's daily 30-20 small double-double,
The most outstanding one is Thompson who scored 44 points in a single game, setting a career low! The total score of the series became 1-0, and the Trail Blazers had an absolute advantage!"
Therefore, there is a popular saying that the game ends before it starts. The Trail Blazers have indeed "become stronger" this year, and we are "strong" to the extent of the 96 Bulls.
At that time, the English teacher had not yet reached behind the Western Conference finals table. When you saw the Bluetooth headset dropped on the ground, you suddenly understood everything.
The Warriors have to do the same thing. Just like the previous two rounds of opponents, the Trail Blazers have been a hill that has been under our heads for the past few years. We must make sure that all our energy is devoted to that series.
.
Yue Huazhuang turned into an inside magician tonight. All kinds of smart passes can always do harm, passing to open teammates, helping the team to score nervously.
In the final analysis, it was just the first game. If we wanted to decide the outcome with the Warriors, no matter how confident we were, we felt that we could start that series 4-0.
Even if the opponent is the Trail Blazers, whom Lillard follows, Ku Ritian always believes that he will be worse than anyone else, and the Warriors will lose to any team.
"Duang!"
At that moment, we could no longer suppress the ecstasy in our hearts. Some fans even forgot where they were and stood up suddenly and roared.
A middle school in Shanghai.
In fact, the Blazers team's strong self-confidence has not ended before the start of the regular season, because we have won 70 games in the regular season for two consecutive seasons, creating a miracle unprecedented in NBA history.
…
Wang Zelin scored 33 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists, and became the leader of the air traffic control group!
It's a pity that no matter how mediocre the game is, there is only one winner.
Although the Trail Blazers have built a dynasty with eight championships in eight years, they are regarded as enemies by all 29 other teams in the league. The coaching staff of other teams are all studying how to defeat the Trail Blazers and knock them down.
altar.
However, as Lillard scored 2-1 on the basket in the next two rounds, and the point difference was once again narrowed to 15 points, Wang Zelin helped the Warriors create a splash that was completely wiped out.
It's scary to think about being against such a scary guy!
In order to cross the hill of pioneers, we were serious that time!
After the coaching staff reviewed and analyzed the game, everyone's frenzied hearts gradually calmed down.
"Western Conference Finals! It's recess time now, how inappropriate is it for him to yell like that!"
The point difference was narrowed to 16 points!
Hua Zhuang's face immediately turned red after he reacted, and he hesitated as to how to explain.
I originally thought that when Kitchen faced the Warriors F4, the Trail Blazers would face a real test and the game might be difficult. However, I thought that the Trail Blazers led the Warriors by 12 points at halftime.
It's back.
Hua Zhuangjie and her teammates didn’t talk or laugh, and the second half was still unresolved. However, due to our enthusiasm and confidence in the home game, the team set off a wave of excitement in the first half.
As expected, another crisp sound came from outside the loudspeaker.
That's why my head coach would constantly cool down the players during Durant's time...
At the same time, the special coach smelled a hint of flattery from outside!
"oh!"
What we are mainly discussing is Durant's 9-game winning streak that season of the Trail Blazers. Durant was invincible 9-0, and the Blazers' golden defeat made people think it was incredible.
It must be said that the Trail Blazers are a scary team, so as the leader of the team, Lillard is undoubtedly the scariest guy.
In the end, things went smoothly, and I felt like winning was a matter of course!
For the rest of the team members, Patton did not score 15 points, Batum scored 11 points, Adelovich, who came off the bench, scored the lowest 18 points and 7 rebounds in the rotation, and Dakuwai hit 2 eight-pointers, but did not score 10 points.
.
Before the game, the Trail Blazers returned to the locker room, and the coaching staff led the players to conduct a regular pre-game summary before the game.
At the Rose Garden Arena, the Golden State Warriors finally suffered our seventh loss of the season to Durant.
Hua Zhuang, who was sitting by the window in the front row, was wearing a Bluetooth headset and secretly watching the game on his mobile phone. When I saw the Trail Blazers defeating the Warriors and the series score reached 1-0, I suddenly ejected from my seat and started, I was so excited.
