The moment Danny Green fell to the ground, Clay scored and the referee's whistle sounded at the same time.
"The ball goes in and there's a penalty!"
The referee's gesture was unmistakable, and the Warriors quickly added two points on the scoreboard!
Clay looked calm and looked down at Danny Green, who was convulsing. Then he looked back at Deng Fang on the sidelines and smiled.
Deng Fang nodded towards Clay, then looked at Danny Green on the ground expressionlessly, snorted coldly in his nose, and cursed secretly in his heart: "Boy, you are here too? You deserve it!"
Deng Fang has never had a good impression of Danny Green!
Danny Green is a standard 3D player, with accurate three-pointers and strong defense. Players like this are very marketable in today's NBA.
It's okay to be strong defensively, but you can't hurt people!
Historically, Klay's two injuries in this round of the Finals were all due to Danny Green!
The first time Clay was injured was in the second game. When he shot from outside the left three-point line, Danny Green rushed to block the shot. Clay landed unsteadily and strained his thigh.
There was no obvious physical contact between Clay and Danny Green when he shot this time, but when he turned around, Clay kept complaining to the referee, saying that Green touched his head behind him.
Because of this injury, Klay missed the third game and the Warriors also lost a game.
Although there is no guarantee that the Warriors will win if Klay is not injured, it is good that the Warriors have a high probability of winning if Klay is not injured, right?
What's more, Klay's injury will increase his teammates' playing time, and his condition will drop a lot!
Historically, in this game, Klay was injured when Danny Green blocked a shot from behind during a fast break and left the game, and was ultimately reimbursed for the season!
Historically, Danny Green's block did not take Klay's injury risk into consideration at all. It was completely indifferent. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is rubbish!
If Danny Green hadn't injured Klay earlier, the Warriors would probably have taken a big lead!
Historically, if Danny Green's block had not caused Klay's injury, the Warriors would have won this series with a high probability!
This trash must be taught a lesson!
When Danny Green flew to block the shot, he completely ignored the risk of Clay getting injured, so he didn't expect Clay to stop at all!
There's no one in front of you. It's so cool to dunk an empty basket. Why did you stop?
Did you know I would pounce?
Did you know I would attack so fiercely?
Danny Green's thinking is very simple: I don't care if you are injured or not, I just want to foul you hard and not give you a chance to score!
Even if I ask you to shoot free throws, it won't make you feel better!
But why don't you play your cards according to the routine?
Why am I the one who got hurt?!
Danny Green did not hold back any strength and rushed forward with all his strength. Clay was well prepared and listened to Deng Fang's words. He did not estimate Danny Green's risk of injury at all and got up the moment Danny Green touched him.
The basket directly knocked Danny Green away!
If it weren't for Deng Fang's instructions, with Clay's character, he would most likely have stopped and grabbed Danny Green and made a protective move to prevent Danny Green from being injured.
But Deng Fang warned Clay in advance and told him not to stop. The Warriors were now lagging behind by a big score, and the score in this game was also very close, so Clay didn't take Danny Green into consideration at all!
Especially after seeing Danny Green rushing towards him like a mad dog, Clay showed no mercy!
Deserve it!
If you don't care if I'm injured or not, then I won't care if you live or die!
Danny Green was knocked away by Clay, and his head just hit the floor. The huge impact made him lose consciousness, twitching non-stop, and howling in pain on the ground!
Klay scored two points, and the score became 85:80. The Warriors led by 5 points and had an extra penalty opportunity.
The referee blew the whistle, and the Raptors team doctor immediately ran up to check on Danny Green.
In less than a minute, the stretcher was brought up.
It was obvious that Danny Green had lost consciousness and would definitely not be able to fight.
Deng Fang stood on the sidelines with an indifferent expression.
At this moment, the system's voice sounded in my mind: According to the rules, you must also cure Danny Green's injury.
"What?" Deng Fang shouted in his heart: "This trash deserves it?! Why?"
"Because the Raptors are the opponent of the Warriors, according to the principle of fairness, if the opponent is injured, if it affects the strength comparison between the two teams, you have to heal him." The system replied: "Danny Green is one of the main players of the Raptors.
First, if he has to miss the season this time, it will have a big impact on the Raptors, so you have to treat him well."
"Is there a time limit?"
"Before the next game starts."
"Oh, this is barely acceptable." Deng Fang snorted.
If a Warriors player was injured, Deng Fang would definitely treat the injury as soon as possible, and it would only take 5 minutes at most. But now that a Raptors player is injured, the time requirement is relaxed a bit.
There was not much time left in the game, and the opponent was injured. Deng Fang could not go over too abruptly to treat the patient, so as not to expose the existence of the system, so the system's request was considered reasonable.
Of course, even if there are no system requirements, Deng Fang does not want to ignore it, because he wants to prove one point: if Clay is not injured, the Raptors will not be able to defeat the Warriors even if all members play!
Deng Fang just wants trash like Danny Green to suffer more!
Danny Green was carried off and the game continued.
This scene is almost completely opposite to history: In history, Klay was injured, endured severe pain and came back to shoot two free throws, and then returned to the locker room and was ended for the season.
Historically, this game was also due to Klay's reimbursement. The Raptors began to double-team Curry unscrupulously from behind, not giving him a chance to take action!
Although Iguodala performed bravely, he was ultimately not a threat enough. Without Clay, both offense and defense struggled, and he ultimately lost.
Now it's different. Klay is not injured, Danny Green is injured and has left the game. The Warriors are also leading by 5 points. The Warriors generals definitely have a psychological advantage.
The game continued, Clay made a free throw first, the score became 86:80, the Warriors led by 6 points.
When the game resumed, the Warriors clearly had the upper hand.
Without Danny Green, the Raptors are missing a general on the defensive end, and their three-point threat on the offensive end is also much smaller.
Siakam's three-point shot is not stable. Danny Green is better than Siakam when he needs to open up space.
Of course, there is no one in the Raptors who is more ruthless and more daring than Danny Green!
But these are all small things, the most important thing is that Clay stayed on the court!
You know, that's Klay Thompson!
You know, this is the sixth game of the series!
Klay Thompson in Game 6 is a god!
Do the Raptors dare to let Klay go?
Do the Raptors dare to double-team Curry?
Not double-teaming Klay would count on Nurse to have the guts!
Without the unbridled double-teaming, Curry has more room to play.
A breakthrough layup, a pull-up three-pointer, and then covering an open space for Clay. Clay threw in another three-pointer, and the point difference quickly widened to more than double digits!
Although Leonard is brave and Van Jordan is strong defensively, hard power is the most important after all!
When the defenses of the two teams are similar, and both teams mainly use small lineups, whoever's three-pointers are more accurate and whose shots are more unreasonable will have the upper hand.
With the Splash Brothers on the court, Green's role is also positive!
Without Clay on the court, Green's role would be negative!
The difference between the outside and the inside is huge here!
With more than 2 minutes left in the game, with Clay hitting a floating three-pointer, the point difference came to 16 points.
The game officially declared that it had lost its suspense.
In the end, the Warriors won Game 6 121:106, and the series score became 3:3.
Klay hit 8 three-pointers in a single game and scored 48 points, a game-high.
Curry hit 6 three-pointers, scored 33 points, 10 assists, and 8 rebounds.
With the blessing of the Splash Brothers, Draymond Green is even more powerful, scoring 18 points, 19 rebounds, and 18 assists in a single game!
For the Raptors, Leonard, Siakam, Lowry and VanVleet scored 22 points, 26 points, 26 points, and 22 points respectively. Ibaka also scored 15 points. Basically everyone joined forces.
But again, the playoffs are all about stars, especially when it comes to the finals. In the end, it still depends on whose star quality is higher and whose chemical reaction is better!
In the era of three-part kings, no one can be more powerful than the Splash Brothers!
No team in the small ball era has a better understanding than the Warriors!
