Winning the third game of the series allowed the Warriors players to relax a little.
The fourth game will start in two days, and both teams will have a certain amount of rest and preparation time.
In order to make the play more realistic, Deng Fang asked Curry to rest in the hotel.
The sprain is not serious and you can play on the court, but you will still have some swelling and pain after playing.
This is the case with Curry!
Curry was a little unhappy.
I'm totally fine!
never mind!
However, Deng Fang did not give Curry a chance to defend himself and directly ordered Curry to rest for two days.
You still have to act when it’s time to act!
If someone discovers your abnormality, you will be in trouble!
Although the entire league now knows that they are good at traditional Chinese medicine, they are still limited to speeding up the recovery from injuries.
This still barely makes sense.
But if you say that you can cure diseases, no matter what the disease is, you can cure it instantly, then you are not human!
On April 24, the first round of the playoffs will begin.
First, the Magic won the Bobcats 90:86.
This is a defensive battle.
The winner was decided at the last moment of the game.
The Magic's best performer was Jameer Nelson, who scored 32 points on 21 shots, 3 assists, and 4 steals.
Except for Nelson, no one from either team could score more than 20 points!
At the last moment of the game, the Magic also replaced Howard and replaced him with Gortat.
There is no way, Howard is terrible at free throws. As long as he is on the court, his opponents will use foul tactics.
In this way, most of the series between the Magic and Bobcats became 3:0.
This is also the fourth 3:0 in this year’s playoffs!
The other three are the Suns and Mavericks, Celtics and Heat, and Warriors and Spurs.
In another game, the Bucks returned to their home court and unexpectedly defeated the Hawks 107:89.
Six players from the Bucks scored in double figures, while only Joe Johnson from the Hawks played normally.
After this, the score between the two teams was 2:1, with the Eagles taking the lead.
At the same time, another game in the Western Conference also started.
Playing at home, the Thunder were still fierce and easily defeated the Lakers 110:89.
In this way, the score between the two teams was 2:2!
The highest scorer of both teams was the Thunder's Durant, who only had 22 points.
Six Lakers scored in double figures, the highest being Gasol's 13 points.
The Thunder had five players score in double figures.
The Thunder still won on free throws.
The Lakers made 17 of 28 free throws, while the Thunder made 42 of 48 free throws!
Regardless of the total number of free throws or free throw shooting percentage, the Thunder are far higher than the Lakers!
In this alone, the Thunder scored 25 more points!
The ability of the Thunder's third young master to draw fouls is evident!
The home court advantage was fully utilized by the Thunder's three young men.
In addition, in another matchup in the Western Conference, the Suns, playing at home, unexpectedly lost to the Mavericks.
In this way, the two teams mostly fought to a score of 3:1, and the Mavericks avoided the fate of being swept.
The team on the edge of the cliff is still very competitive, and the Mavericks players are working very hard.
On April 25, there will be four more games.
The Cavaliers defeated the Bulls 121:98 on the road, and the score became 3:1.
Five Bulls players scored in double figures, but they could not stop James, who was extremely efficient.
James scored 37 points on only 17 shots, along with 12 rebounds and 11 assists, a huge triple-double.
I don’t know if he was stimulated by Curry, but James felt hot in this game. He took 9 three-pointers and hit 6 of them!
James had previously said that the Warriors would definitely not be able to beat the Spurs. As a result, the Warriors are now leading 3:0, while the Cavaliers are still fighting the Bulls.
Now that you have been slapped in the face, the only way to regain some face is to produce good-looking data.
The league's No. 1 player still has no rivals in the Eastern Conference!
In another game, the Heat, who were on the edge of the cliff, finally won a game at home, and the series score with the Celtics became 1:3, successfully avoiding being swept.
In another game in the Western Conference, the Jazz, who were leading 2:1, made another victory at home, defeating the Nuggets 117:106.
Melo Anthony played well and scored a game-high 39 points. Unfortunately, he was unable to defeat four players with two fists. Five Jazz players scored in double figures. Boozer even made 13 of 19 shots and scored 31 points.
After this game, the series score between the Jazz and the Nuggets became 3:1, and the Nuggets' life hung on a thread.
The last game is the game between the Warriors and the Spurs.
This is the fourth matchup between the two teams in this year's playoffs.
The Spurs are already trailing 0:3 by a big score, and their lives hang on a thread.
We are all NBA players, and no one wants to be swept out.
That would be too shameless!
Therefore, teams with their backs against a cliff and no way out will often burst out with extraordinary fighting spirit.
Whether it's a moment of rebirth or a struggle before death, no matter who it is, it's not easy to end the series.
Those who are stunned are afraid of those who are violent, and those who are violent are afraid of losing their lives. This is the truth.
Likewise, the league doesn't want the series to end early.
For every additional playoff game played, the league and teams earn millions more dollars!
After all, the NBA is a business league, and the purpose of everything is to make money.
It doesn't matter who wins or loses, as long as we play a few more games!
It is for this reason that referees often give special treatment to teams that are lagging behind by a big score.
The trailing team may or may not blow the whistle.
The leading team may or may not blow the whistle.
We are all NBA teams, and the gap is not that big to begin with. If the whistle goes wrong, the result may be very different.
Unless your strength far exceeds your opponent!
Of course, teams with a big lead will make mistakes themselves.
The most likely mistake you can make is to let your guard down.
Leading 3:0, no team in history has successfully come back, and there is no suspense in the series!
It's very easy to let down your guard with this mentality.
Of course, even if a mistake is made, even if the opponent is very motivated, and even if the referee is biased, the final result will not change.
Being able to win three games in a row, including away games, shows that the gap between the two teams is still a bit big.
As long as the players are nervous and the referee is not biased, victory will eventually come.
However, playing one more game increases the risk of injury to a player.
Not worth it if someone gets hurt!
Although Deng Fang can heal the injured team members, it will cost ability points!
In the playoffs, the use of ability points will be doubled!
Curry was injured in this game, and Deng Fang used up 40 ability points in just one treatment!
In the playoffs, even if your opponent is injured, you need to be treated, and it also costs energy points!
At the same time, it should not be too obvious for people to notice their abnormalities.
That's also a headache.
What's more, Deng Fang's salary will be deducted by US$100,000 if he loses a game!
This is the playoffs, and the salary is doubled compared to the regular season!
If Deng Fang wants to become the team owner, he must not only win a championship, but also compensate Cohan with US$500 million!
500 million!
Not 50 million!
So Deng Fang has always been very concerned about the money in his hands.
Even though he earned a lot, Deng Fang did not spend it randomly and saved everything.
For Deng Fang currently, the best way to make money is to win games.
So you can never lose a game that you can win!
If you can fight one less time, fight one less time!
