Chapter 801 Successful Egg Chasing

After the first quarter, the score on the court was 35-25.

Bogut's appearance did have some effect on the Warriors' position defense, but it was very limited.

The Pelicans' defensive counterattack was fast, which greatly weakened Bogut's role.

In this quarter alone, the Pelicans scored as many as 18 fast break points, which is more than in the past two games combined.

There are gains and losses. Jokic stands on the three-point line most of the time when attacking, so that he can retreat and defend in place. Bogut obviously cannot do this.

At the beginning of the second quarter, both teams started with four substitutes.

For the Warriors, Green leads the team, plus Barbosa, Livingston, Iguodala and Speights.

The Pelicans are led by Davis, plus Dinwiddie, Stephenson, Bojan and McGee.

Bojan used McGee's pick-and-roll to catch Davis' pass and hit a three-pointer.

Although Ariza has not played in the starting lineup since his return, his stable shooting has made him the most reliable scoring point on the Pelicans' bench.

Looking back, Speights hit back with a high jumper and a signature mid-range shot.

The Pelicans' bench is excellent, and the Warriors' bench is not weak either.

Dinwiddie's breakthrough layup was missed by Speights, but Davis followed up and grabbed the offensive rebound and dunked directly.

After Bogut was put into the starting lineup, the Warriors' ability to protect the frame naturally became weaker.

Green turned around and shot a three-pointer from the top of the arc to retaliate, but unfortunately it hit the frame due to interference from Davis.

He was very happy in this series, but his touch from beyond the three-point line was not good.

McGee grabbed a defensive rebound, and the Warriors' offense once again came to nothing.

Cole shouted anxiously from the sidelines.

This substitute has not played two minutes at this stage, and the point difference on the field has been stretched to 15 points.

This is going to be a 0 to 3 rhythm!

When it was 0-1, he could still talk and laugh.

At 0-2, he still pretended to be calm.

But 0 to 3, sorry, he is Cole, not a god.

Davis caught the ball in the low post and beat Green, then turned around and met Green's long arm.

Green is really at a disadvantage defending Davis.

Cole helplessly shook his head and raised his forehead. This game was really beyond his ability as a coach to change.

At 17 minutes, the fans in the Bay Area, who had been in a lively atmosphere at the start of the game, were now unprecedentedly quiet, and the Oracle Arena turned from lava to iceberg.

I was really beaten and lost my temper.

Not to mention the fans, the Warriors' bench was also silent.

Both Curry and Thompson had expressionless faces. It was obvious that the situation in front of them was much different from what they imagined.

When they reversed the Thunder, they were still thinking about winning the Pelicans to defend the championship.

It all looks slim now.

The Warriors' offense, the attack time was almost up, and Green held the ball at the top of the arc for a long time without passing the ball.

The Pelicans are playing better and smoother, and the quality of the defensive end is also constantly improving.

Seeing that there was not much offensive time left, Green chose to break through Davis with the ball.

Davis has no problem guarding Green alone. He retreats and defends, always maintaining a defensive position, and preparing to take a big risk on Green.

To say that Tang Tian is the best player so far, then the second best player is Davis.

The saddest thing about being eliminated by the Warriors last year was Davis. Just like being eliminated by the Grizzlies before, he was holding back his energy to fight back.

He has done the same in the past two games.

Since Green beat him hard, he knocked Green back to reality, allowing the latter to wake up from the dream of eliminating the Pelicans 4-2.

Green couldn't squeeze away from Davis, so he either got caught, stopped the ball or walked.

Just when it seemed that no matter what choice he made, the last kick of his breakthrough suddenly and inadvertently landed in front of Davis' legs, and then he lifted up directly.

Davis took action to block the shot, and his hand blocked the ball in Green's hand.

But the next second his expression suddenly became extremely painful, and he fell from the air to the floor, covering his crotch with both hands.

It turned out that Green raised his left foot directly when he took off and kicked Davis directly in the crotch!

During the regular season, Davis was kicked in the crotch by Green, but he avoided it and only suffered an ankle sprain.

But this time he was focused on blocking the shot and didn't notice Green's feet at all!

And he never imagined that Green would attack in this way!

This really escaped the first day of the new year but not the fifth day of the new year. It is impossible to prevent it.

Stephenson was the first to rush over and push Green directly, causing players on both sides to fight directly.

Stevens called the team doctor and asked the latter to come on quickly. He then calmly stopped the players who were about to rush onto the court, including Tang Tian and Ci Shiping.

Pachulia was beaten by Tang Tian before and shocked the alliance. Now Tang Tian is on the court, which is why Green dared to do such a dirty trick.

The conflict on the field was separated by the referee.

Stephenson returned to the bench and kept cursing. Obviously he was very unhappy with Green's actions.

But Tang Tian's focus was on Davis at the moment.

After being helped to the sidelines by the team doctor, Davis stood for a while and finally signaled that he wanted to go back to the locker room.

The balls are the most vulnerable part of a man. Being kicked by such a strong ball, and the opponent is an NBA player, it is already considered a tough ball if it is not kicked out or knocked unconscious.

Green directly eliminated Davis.

The on-site technical desk was reviewing the video, and Green also kept explaining to the referee on the sidelines that it was unintentional.

The referee finally gave the penalty, and Green and Stephenson each received a technical foul.

Stevens remained calm, but Brown rushed to the referee's bench emotionally to protest, but this did not change the penalty.

This is the final penalty.

Green was replaced by Thompson to rest, and the Pelicans also played Jokic in advance.

In the few minutes of the transition period between the benches, Thompson scored consecutively on long-range shots, helping the Warriors narrow the point difference to 12 points.

Davis's injury has had an obvious impact on the Pelicans.

Green's kick was worth a technical foul in exchange for Davis.

After the substitute transition period was over, the main players from both sides were replaced one after another.

Green also came on as a substitute.

Tang Tian took a special look at Green before going on the field.

When Green was explaining to the referee on the technical stage, he was standing not far away and heard clearly.

It wasn't intentional, it was just an unconscious movement after losing balance. He would never maliciously target opposing players...

These explanations sounded to him just like what Stephenson said before the game. They were all farts, and the kind that Green himself would not believe.

He was too lazy to have a verbal spat with Green before, but that didn't mean he would sit back and ignore this behavior.

Punched Kenyon Martin, knocked out Pachulia, elbowed Green, he has always been the kind of person who must avenge his revenge.

It's not intentional, right?

Then wait.
