To be honest, Yuzu has always believed that Paul's biggest opponents in her career are two, one is Delong and the other is referee Foster. When facing Delon, Paul is really uncomfortable to win or lose, Delong is not the top point guard, but just give birth to Paul, but Paul also has a loss and a win against Delon, not too tragic, but against referee Foster, just one word: miserable! Before this game and the Pelicans' playoffs did not start, Paul's record against referee Foster was 0-13, a game not to win, it is very confusing, Foster is not a tianke CP3?
Okay, G2 is on. As soon as the game began, Booker was incomparable, scoring 31 points in the first half for 17 minutes. Seeing that the sun is going to pull the point difference apart, today the ball has nothing to say, Booker is so brave, Paul should win. But an accident occurred, and Booker left the field injured. It's hard to explain, well played, Booker left! Then there was no more, and the third quarter of the Pelicans blasted a 34-22 attack wave, and the sun was suddenly discouraged. And the Pelicans' firepower in the second half was obviously higher than in the first half, and the half-time ball scored 69 points.
Finally, as soon as the match ended, Paul 0-14 Foster. It's hard to understand how Paul couldn't get past Foster. And after this playoff game, the Suns are now passive, and it should not be said that Booker is injured now. Booker is the team's number one scorer, and the G2 Suns looked like they could get through, but the uncertainty of his injury was greater. Although It seems that Booker's injury is not so serious, but the Pelicans won a home win for no reason, followed by two consecutive away games, the pressure on the Suns is greater.
And this game lost in the sun itself is a bit drifty, the first half of Booker's brave play pelicans can not stop, the sun has no strength, after all, has been ahead, pelicans attack is simple but also simple to enter. When Booker was injured, the Pelicans began to gain momentum, and at this time the sun began to rush to the intensity again, but it could not be stopped, and the Pelicans frantically chased the points in the second half. The sun in the last quarter originally wanted to rely on the stability of the previous to win, but did not expect the pelicans to be more fierce in the last quarter, Ingram scored 28 points in the second half, single-handedly locked the game to win, the sun wanted to win the game too late.
So, the sun is not stable yet. The first major hidden danger in the playoffs has emerged, that is, the injury of the core players. This thing cannot be avoided 100%, and it is a problem when it appears. Although the overall strength of the Sun is higher than that of the Pelicans, if Booker cannot play this point, the impact on the Sun is still very large. It is said that the playoffs start from winning the away game, and at present, the Pelicans are already one position ahead of the Suns, and then back at the Pelicans' home court, the Suns have to win an away victory, and this time the pressure is on Paul's body.
