On May 10, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA playoffs continued, and the Warriors and the Grizzlies began to play. In the end, the Warriors beat the Grizzlies 101-98 to win the first team to win the division semifinals. In the other 3 groups of division semi-finals, the big score is equal to 2-2, and the battle of Tennozan will be brutal!
In this battle, the Warriors won not easily at all. In the first 47 minutes of the game, the Warriors did not get the lead, and at most they only tied the score. It wasn't until the final 46 seconds of the game that Curry stood on the free throw line and hit two free throws, and the Warriors finally overtook the score. Since then, the Warriors have taken the initiative, and the Grizzlies have lost the game in pain. Now, the Warriors' Series leads the Grizzlies 3-1 and has one foot in the Western Conference Finals to see if the Warriors can end the series at G5!
However, there was a penalty in this game that caused a hot discussion. With 25.9 seconds left in the game, Bane tried to grab a rebound but pushed Curry, who was pushed straight out of the court. The referee awarded Bain a foul, and Curry once again stood on the free throw line and hit all two free throws to extend the lead to three points. The penalty directly affects the trend of the game, and the famous SKIP posted a question about Curry's fake fall, is this really the case?
Now that the case has finally been solved, the slow-motion camera restores the truth, and Curry does not fake it. Curry had already taken his position in advance and jumped up to compete for a rebound, but Bane pushed from behind, which also made Curry lose his balance in the air. Perhaps, some fans will think that Curry's fall is a bit exaggerated, after all, Bane did not work very hard? One thing to say is that this is actually a kind of self-protection for Curry, after all, he can't see the situation behind him, and if he falls off the field, he can avoid stepping on the feet of the rear player (Bain) when he lands.
It can be seen that the referee awarded Bain for pushing someone to foul, which is a very fair decision. After all, no matter how big Curry fell, Bane pushed Curry's back with both hands, which is indeed an indisputable fact. It can only be said that the Grizzlies players are too anxious, after all, they are a whole game ahead, but they were overtaken by the Warriors in the last minute, and the mentality of the Grizzlies players has also changed. Bane wanted to compete for this key rebound, and in a hurry, he pushed Curry from behind, and Curry also got 2 free throw opportunities to help the Warriors consolidate their lead!
In this campaign, Curry did not start well, but Curry found his form in the second half of the game and became the Warriors' winning hero. In this game, Curry had 32 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal, and hit 4 three-pointers. That also allowed Curry to hit more than 500 three-pointers in his playoff career, becoming the only star in NBA history to unlock that achievement.
Today, the Warriors lead the Grizzlies 3-1 in the Series. According to the schedule, the Warriors and Grizzlies series G5 will be played on May 12. Whether the Warriors can end the series with a single blow will also become the biggest attraction!
