Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 785

The sixth game between the Warriors and the Suns was held on May 5.

The determination of the Suns, who have returned to the home court to fight their last battle, is amazing.

With this determination, in the first quarter, they beat the Warriors 26:13. It can be said that in the first quarter, the Warriors' offense was completely restricted. There is no more perfect start than this.

However, the reason why the Warriors only scored 13 points in the entire quarter was certainly related to the Suns' defense, but it was more due to problems with their own offense.

After experiencing the last overtime battle, in this game, the Suns paid great attention to rotating defense and strangled the Warriors' passes.

The Warriors, at the beginning of the game, did not pay attention to this issue, and the players never entered the state, making many unnecessary mistakes, which led to a series of counterattacks by the Suns, thus digging a big hole for themselves.

However, you can't expect the Warriors to perform like this throughout the game, and he will always recover.

Sure enough, starting from the second quarter, the Warriors' offense gradually became normalized, and their scoring gradually increased. At the same time, they also noticed the problems in passing and cutting, and reduced many unnecessary mistakes.

It's just that in this process, the Suns have always responded to the Warriors' scoring, so that the Warriors' scoring can't hit a wave of climax, it is always intermittent, the score is relatively anxious, and they can't make a wave of climax to chase points in a short period of time.

Therefore, at the end of halftime, the Suns still led the Warriors by 51 points with 41:10.

The turning point happened in the third quarter, and I don’t know what Nelson taught the Warriors during the halftime break. In short, after the start of the second half, the tactics were still the same, and the people were still the same, but the whole situation changed drastically.

Li Weisi, in particular, played very aggressively in this quarter, almost turning Hardaway into a husky, and Hardaway lost his temper completely.

Li Weisi, who only scored 11 points in the first half, scored 23 points in this quarter, almost completely breaking the Suns' defense by himself.

Driven by Li Weisi, the Warriors team also scored 40 points in this quarter, helping the team successfully overtake the score.

With 81:79, entered the fourth quarter with a 2-point advantage.

In the fourth quarter, the touch of both sides exploded. The two teams scored one goal after another.

The two teams drew from 83 to 110, and the point difference did not exceed 5 points during the period, until the last moment.

Due to the graduation of Persson's six offenses, the Suns could only use Danny Ainge at the decisive moment. However, what is unexpected is that it was this veteran who was on the verge of retirement who made a hit at the most critical moment. A priceless three-pointer.

As a substitute player for the Suns, Ainge performed very well tonight. He played 27 minutes, made 8 of 5 shots, 6 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 19 points.

At this moment, the value of veterans is reflected to the extreme, which really echoes the old saying that every family is like a treasure.

And with this three-pointer, the Suns led the Warriors by 114 points at 112:2 at the last moment.

At this time, with the last 2.3 seconds left before the end of the game, the Warriors called a timeout.

This time is not long, and it is not short. Although this time is not enough for the Warriors to execute tactics in an orderly manner, it can't stand that the Warriors have several good players who can make a fortune.

Therefore, the Suns didn't dare to be sloppy. After returning from the timeout, they carefully stared at the person in front of them, and didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

Regarding this sideline ball, Divac stood outside the sideline, and Rodman stood near the free throw line as the pivot. After the whistle sounded, the other three began to run tactics around Rodman.

The Suns also have a focus on the defensive arrangement of the three Warriors. Li Weisi's defense is the tightest, followed by Mullin, and Richmond is the last.

So almost at the same time as the whistle sounded, Richmond had a chance with a little run.

Just as Richmond beckoned, Marly noticed the problem and ran towards Richmond. While running, he raised his hands to prevent Divac from passing the ball at this time.

However, when Marley left, Li Weisi's defensive pressure suddenly decreased. With Angie keeping a close eye on Mullin, Li Weisi was left with Hardaway alone.

How could Li Weisi miss it? He who was walking in a straight line suddenly started to turn, and started running towards Divac one step away from the three-point line.

Divac also understood. Klein's defense couldn't interfere with Divac's line of sight at all. He tricked Klein with a fake move, and then passed the ball to Li Weisi.

After receiving the ball, Li Weisi did not make any adjustments, and directly chose to turn around and drift for three points.

At this time, Hardaway, who had been chasing after him, and Marley, who had come to his senses, both rushed towards Li Weisi, jumped high, and tried to block Li Weisi.

However, Li Weisi's quick shot turned their blocking into a whimsical one. The basketball first flew into the sky, and after a long flight, it fell steadily into the basket.

Lore!Li Weisi successfully completed this three-point lore!

Since Li Weisi took off one step away from the three-point line, the sideline referee indicated that it was a three-pointer almost at the same time as Li Weisi made the shot.

In fact, strictly speaking, this is not a lore, but a quasi-lore, because Li Weisi also left 0.4 seconds for the Suns. In theory, they still have a chance to win.

It's a pity that after seeing this scene, the Suns fans at the scene were already ashamed and completely lifeless. Obviously, no one has the confidence to create a miracle.

Facts have also proved that miracles are not so easy to create, not to mention that there is no "Old Fish" in the Suns at this time. Even if there is, "Old Fish" is not 0.4% sure that he can make the shot in [-] seconds.

In the end, Hardaway's shot completely missed the basket, and the time went to zero in a blink of an eye. The Suns lost to the Warriors at home by 114:155, by 1 point.

The Warriors also eliminated the Western powerhouse Suns with a total game of 4:2 and successfully advanced to the Western Conference Finals.

This game can be said to be a typical game belonging to Li Weisi.

When the Warriors were unable to start the situation, Li Weisi led the team to stabilize the situation, and then Li Weisi, relying on his strong offensive firepower, led the team to complete the overtake.

At the end of the game, it was Li Weisi who used a difficult three-pointer to seal the victory.

Li Weisi, who scored 46 points and 10 assists in the game, almost single-handedly defeated the Suns, causing the Suns, who were aiming to win the championship, to leave sadly, ending their championship road.
