Chapter 316: The Third Battle of the Western Finals (11)
With no one to defend him, Farmar had to face Curry alone.
Curry is taller than Farmar and has a weight advantage. The most important thing is that Curry's three-point threat is too great!
When Curry pauses dribbling and glances at the basket, Farmar has to be ready to jump to block the shot!
Zen Master said, Curry must not be allowed to shoot!
This is a dead order!
But if you want to completely block Curry's shot, you must stick to the defense. In that case, it will be too easy for Curry to break through!
Kobe used Laga Bell to make a difficult fadeaway mid-range shot.
Curry responded with a step-back three-pointer!
Kobe feinted and caused a foul on Laga Bell.
Curry passed Farmar and broke through to the inside for a layup and scored two points.
Kobe Bryant made a three-pointer.
Curry didn't take two steps before halftime and he hit a long three-pointer!
Kobe forced a layup and was fouled by Prince.
Curry broke through to the inside and hit a two-plus-one against Artest's defense!
…
Because the operating space is different and the defensive intensity is very different, Curry's scoring efficiency is much higher!
In 5 minutes, Curry scored 12 points, hit 2 three-pointers, a 2-plus-1, and a technical foul free throw!
In addition, Curry also assisted his teammates to hit 2 three-pointers!
In order to help defend Artest, he has already committed 4 fouls!
Kobe also scored 8 points, but he took more shots than Curry!
The score between the two teams became 94:73!
The Warriors lead by 21 points!
The Lakers are getting more and more hopeless!
In order to defend against the Warriors, the Lakers are making more and more moves.
Farmar began to press the defense from the backcourt, making it difficult for Curry to catch the ball.
But if Farmar does this, it will be easier for Curry to break through.
Soon, Curry once again broke into the paint. Artest came to help defend, and a hungry tiger rushed over.
It’s you boy!
So annoying!
Bullying that we don’t have a center forward?
I am!
The restricted area is my territory!
If you dare to come in, don’t even think about living... No, don’t even think about walking out standing!
Artest has a ferocious face and looks very scary.
But Curry was not afraid and rushed to the basket facing Artest.
Curry has a brave heart in his thin body!
I'm not afraid of Shaquille O'Neal, and Andrew Bynum can't stop me. What's an Artest?
As long as you can't beat me, I'm determined to get this basket!
Curry is not afraid, and Artest will not back down either!
It's you I'm messing with!
What happened just now was a loss to Lopez! How great would it be if I took you down!
For Artest, once he becomes anxious and ruthless, there is no need to hide it, nor can he pretend!
What I did was you!
With a "bang", Curry and Artest collided in the air.
Curry threw the ball the moment it fell.
The basketball hit the backboard and just bounced into the net bag!
At the same time, Artest's right hand was slapped down!
Now that you have taken action, be more ruthless!
Curry yelled "Ah" and fell straight to the ground.
The referee quickly blew the whistle!
The referee of this game is really busy!
Not only did people fall to the ground, but people were constantly injured.
Seeing that Curry was knocked to the ground by Artest again, Laga Bell immediately rushed up, waving his fists and trying to fight Artest!
Jordan, who was on the bench, suddenly stood up and wanted to beat Artest with Laga Bell.
Two assistant coaches quickly stepped forward and grabbed Jordan.
Deng Fang had already given instructions to pay attention to Xiao Qiaodan and others and never allow them to act rashly.
The sun was dimmed like this back then!
You can do anything if you lose badly, not to mention the Lakers have a tough guy like Artest!
Prince also grabbed Laga Belle.
The referee quickly separated everyone.
The team doctor came up to check Curry, and the referee went to the technical table to watch the replay.
Fortunately, Curry was prepared for the layup, and he collided face-to-face with Artest, and when he landed on the ground, he held it up with his hands.
However, Artest's slap was quite forceful. Not only did it hit Curry's head, it also hit Curry's eyes!
In just this moment, Curry's forehead had already swelled up into a big bump!
Curry's right eye is also red and looks very eye-catching.
The team doctor helped Curry to the sidelines and dealt with it briefly.
As long as there's nothing wrong with your legs, feet, and arms, that's fine!
The injury to my forehead is a bruise, it hurts a lot, and it doesn't affect my playing.
Eye injuries are a bit troublesome, but the impact is not big.
The audience at Staples Arena was of high quality. It was silent at first, but then they started to shout when they saw Curry's injury on the big screen, cheering for Curry together.
With his elegant playing style and very cute looks, a high-quality idol like Curry is liked by many people wherever he goes.
Even if it's an away game, even if it's the enemy!
This is personal charm!
Soon, the referee watched the replay and found out that Artest committed a first-level foul and Curry made two free throws.
Since Artest had just committed a first-level flagrant foul, he was going to be ejected.
A second level flagrant foul in a game will result in direct ejection.
If there are two first-level flagrant fouls in a game, the player will also be ejected.
We are all NBA players and have very good physical fitness. We will not be injured in ordinary collisions.
When an offensive player goes for a layup, he will usually be ready when he sees his opponent coming towards him. Even if he falls to the ground or is beaten, it will usually be no big deal.
Otherwise, someone would fall to the ground in every game, and someone would be awarded a flagrant foul after a few games. Wouldn’t it be true that someone would be injured all the time!
It’s not that easy to hurt your opponent!
Reggie Miller in the commentary box nodded when he saw the referee's decision and said: "Yes, Artest should be sent out! If he doesn't go out, someone will die!"
A Smith also sighed: "Artest should be ejected, but once he leaves, the Lakers will be even more dangerous!"
"If Artest is not expelled, the Lakers have little hope of winning!" Reggie Miller said: "They are already behind by almost 20 points! The third quarter is Curry time again. This is basically how I watched the game.
Got it!"
A Smith shook his head and said: "Oh, I also want to see a wonderful showdown. I thought it was Mars hitting the earth, but I didn't expect it was King Kong fighting an actress!"
…
The commentator was not optimistic about the Lakers, and the fans at Staples Center were not very interested.
Falling behind by a huge margin, falling behind by so much in the third quarter, and having the team's main players expelled again, no one has high hopes.
The game continues.
Curry wants to take a free throw first.
This is what he got for risking injury!
As expected, Curry made the free throw.
The injury on the forehead is not a big problem, although the redness of the eyes has some impact, it is still okay.
The most important thing is that Curry's basic free throw skills are excellent and can stand the test.
