There's a strong conversation between the Western conference teams today — warriors vs. Grizzlies. The game was full of twists and turns, with the Grizzlies gaining the upper hand in the first half, maintaining an eight-point lead into the second half. In the third quarter, the Storm suddenly changed, the Warriors played a wave of 17:2 climax, as Curry retreated into the net with three points, the Warriors officially reversed the score, playing a 39:28 attack wave in the single quarter.
In the fourth quarter, the two sides were almost back on the same starting line, with the Grizzlies taking the lead and widening the point difference to around 7 points. Although the Warriors fought back in the second half of the quarter, they still failed to complete the reversal, losing to the Grizzlies 108:116, losing in this battle between the west's giants and giving their opponents a 10-game winning streak.
The Warriors' side played best was Curry, who scored a triple-double of 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists on 8-of-21. The Grizzlies, on the other hand, were multi-point blossoming, with six players scoring in double figures, and Morant scored a game-high 29 points on 11-of-23 shooting, as well as 5 rebounds and 8 assists.
There was also a very interesting picture during the game, what is it?
Thompson was too focused on the fast attack and collided with the female referee
The scene came with more than 10 minutes left in the third quarter of the game, when the Warriors trailed by three points 56-59. After the Grizzlies missed the offense, the Warriors quickly pushed back, and Curry dribbled the ball through the frontcourt, ready to pass to Downside Rooney. Thompson, on the other hand, was ready to run to the right side of the three-point line to receive the ball in order to open up space.
Coincidentally, Tang Shen's forward route coincided with the line of the referee's referee, and the two people collided with each other and both fell to the ground. The teammates on the side were stunned, but fortunately neither of them was injured. After Thompson stood up, he greeted the female referee, and the scene was also very harmonious.
The vignette didn't affect the game, and it just so happened that the Grizzlies fouled the Warriors and the game also entered the dead-ball stage. However, this scene is really funny, and it can be selected as the O'Neal Five!
Tang Shen's return to state is gratifying, and the Warriors are expected to compete for the championship
Although this game was lost, Tang Shen's state was still very good. He played 19 minutes, 5-of-13, 14 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, 2 of 5 three-pointers, plus-minus was a team-high +17. Returning to two games, Tang Shen averaged 15.5 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game, shooting 39% from the field. The shooting state still needs to be revived, but the first game of the return has a burst performance of the next person dunk, which is enough to see Thompson's recovery.
After all, he suffered injuries that could lead to a devastating career, including a torn cruciate ligament in the knee and a torn Achilles tendon, and kobe Bryant was unable to recover from injuries like a torn Achilles tendon. I have to lament that the progress of modern medicine can minimize the impact of serious injuries on players, including Thompson and Durant, who can maintain the top level after returning from major injuries.
But more importantly, Thompson's physical state recovered, and he was not psychologically affected. Many players will appear to be afraid after suffering injuries, dare not make moves on the court, afraid of getting injured again, and obviously Thompson does not have this worry.
The official return of Tang Shen marks another solid step for the Warriors on the road to winning the championship. They've been fantastic this season, and while Curry may have been in the worst form of his career, the Warriors' overall strength is here, and they're still in the league's top four. After Green recovers from his injury, the trident that once won the championship will fit together again. I believe that when the time comes, the warriors will burst out of different strengths.
