Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 546
The tenacity of the Blazers is beyond everyone's imagination. After beating the Warriors in the third game, in the fourth game just one day later, on the same venue, the Blazers defeated the Warriors again with 108:105. The score was tied at 2:2.

Although there was no lore goal in this game, it also hit the last goal. At the last moment, Drexler once again showed his star qualities. Facing Richmond's tight defense, he hit a key goal, and then followed Li Weisi The three-point tie failed, which made it difficult for the Blazers to win.

As for the Blazers being able to equalize the big score in the series, it was a bit beyond everyone's expectations. After all, just a few days ago, when the Warriors led 2:0, people thought whether the Blazers would be swept away , no one thought that this round of the series would actually have to fight Tianwangshan.

Therefore, after this game, many people have lowered their expectations for the Warriors. The original favorites for the championship suddenly couldn't even make it to the top three.

Some people fished in troubled waters and directly started discussing whether Li Weisi was overrated?Without strong teammates, Li Weisi was targeted in the playoffs and could not lead the team to win the championship at all.

In fact, a voice similar to this has never stopped since Li Weisi entered the alliance, but because Li Weisi's performance was so good, the group of sunspots couldn't speak, and they were uncomfortable.

Now, with this round of the series, they finally have a place to use their talents. However, these people are a minority after all, and they can't play any role other than scolding.

But sometimes, these people are like flies. Although they won't kill you, they will make you sick. Li Weisi was disgusted at this time.

In fact, Li Weisi has always cared about the outside world's evaluation of himself. In his opinion, this is also a way to know himself. However, sometimes when he hears bad remarks, he thinks: It's just a group of people who don't understand The fat man of the ball is not qualified to judge me at all!

Therefore, in fact, Li Weisi has always been very nervous about criticism, and it is precisely this kind of mentality that after seeing an interview about criticism on TV, one can imagine the resentment in his heart.

With such a mood, Li Weisi set foot on the field of the fifth game.

For this battle of Tianwangshan, the whole Blazers team was very excited, because even they didn't expect that they could play to this level.

After returning to the same starting line, they also saw the hope of winning this round of the series. Therefore, before the start of the game, the morale of the whole team was high.

It has to be said that their ideas are good, but this is just their wishful thinking. If they want to win this game, it depends on whether Li Weisi agrees or not!
Sure enough, after the game started, the Blazers suffered a blow.

Returning to the Warriors at home, the defense seems to have reached a new level.

The reason why the Blazers were able to win the first two games was not only the correct defensive strategy, but also a very important point, that is, the Blazers' team's shooting rate was the same as that of the opener, and someone could hit the key ball every time.

And tonight, when the Blazers faced the Warriors, the magical touch was gone, and the Warriors' tight defense made them feel suffocated, especially the team leader Drexler, who felt extremely difficult at this time.

In fact, it's not that the Warriors' defense has improved, but that the Blazers' offense has a problem.

After Drexler received the ball from Porter, he rushed into the penalty area. However, after entering the penalty area, he found that there were no open spaces for his teammates around him. In the end, he decided to come by himself, against Lewis' defense, and forced a shot. With the interference of the long arm, the basketball bounced out of the basket.

After the rebound was accepted by Rodman, it was handed over to Li Weisi immediately, and Li Weisi quickly counterattacked. This kind of fast break, the Warriors have played several times tonight.

During the counterattack, Li Weisi quickly found Richmond and made a layup. As soon as the goal was scored, the score had reached 14:4, and Adelman finally decided to call a timeout.

As to whether to call a timeout, Adelman was indeed hesitant, because he always attributed the Blazers' offensive abnormality to the players' bad touch. It's just too bad.

For such a critical Tianwangshan, the team players have been unable to enter the state for a long time. Adelman is very anxious, but there is nothing he can do.

Whether it is a player's status problem or a tactical problem, neither one timeout can solve it. Of course, two timeouts will not work!
Therefore, when the timeout ended and the game resumed, the Blazers' offense did not change much.

And the bad state in the offense will also affect the defense. Therefore, unlike the Blazers' troubles, the Warriors played smoothly.

Especially Li Weisi, who was suffocated before the game, this game is full of firepower, accurate and scary.

Seeing this situation, Nelson knew that it was time for Li Weisi, and this kind of opportunity was rare, so he hurriedly disrupted the rotation order so that Li Weisi's rhythm would not be interrupted.

Li Weisi naturally lived up to Nelson's expectations. In a single quarter, he made 8 of 7 shots and 4 of 4 three-pointers. He scored 24 points, which was higher than that of the Blazers.

You know, in the first quarter, the Blazers scored a total of 16 points, so after the first quarter, the Blazers trailed the Warriors by 14 points at 35:21.

This is playing Tianwang Mountain?I'm afraid they didn't play like this in the preseason, did they?

Facing the big hole of 21 points dug in the first quarter, the Blazers have only two choices, either give up resistance, or catch up.

For the Blazers who want to win the game, they naturally choose the latter.

In the second quarter, the Blazers' touch began to recover, and their shooting percentage gradually returned to normal, except for Drexler, who still didn't score in this quarter.

In this way, the Blazers scored 24 points in the second quarter, allowing the Warriors to continue to expand the point difference to 61 points with 38:23.

In the second half, the Blazers' state finally gradually recovered, and even in the fourth quarter, they set off a wave of counterattacks, narrowing the point difference to 15 points at one point.

It's a pity that it was too late for the Blazers to recover. Li Weisi firmly controlled the rhythm of the field, reduced the number of rounds, and hit the success rate. In the end, he pinned the Blazers tightly and couldn't move.

The Blazers, who were powerless to resist, could only choose to give up in the face of running out of time. With more than 2 minutes left before the end of the game, they replaced the main players and declared their surrender.

In this way, the Warriors defeated the Trail Blazers 112:97 at home. The battle of Tianwangshan, which was thought to be the Comet War, ended in such a dramatic way.

Compared with Li Weisi, who was in a brave state tonight and scored 48 points and 8 assists, the Blazers star Drexler made 10 of 1 shots and only scored 4 points. It is foreseeable that Drexler will be sprayed after the game. how miserable.

Without the noisy people, Li Weisi would obviously be much more comfortable.
