On April 22, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs were in full swing, and the white-hot ratings of the duels in various groups were also rising. This round of playoffs is really very reasonable from the current point of view. Whether it is the above and the bottom or all kinds of grudges and oddities, it is enough for the fans to look forward to.
Today's away Warriors face their old rival, the Denver Nuggets, who passed the Nuggets, then known as the Athletics, in the first year of the Warriors' reign. In the blink of an eye, the golden iron triangle of Curry, Thompson and Green is still in the Warriors, but the Nuggets are no longer the team of the year.
However, although it has long been a mistake, when it comes to its home field after 0:2, as the MVP of last season's MVP, it is natural that he does not want the Warriors to spread wild on their own turf. Today's first quarter of the game both sides entered the state early, the Warriors side continued the arrangement of the last game, still the young Poole instead of Curry to start the game.
Today's Poole is also highly anticipated, to know that after the last game of bravery, many people have taken him as the third brother of the Waterfall Brothers, although not as fierce as Kevin Durant, but as a competent little brother, from the first two playoff games, his performance is absolutely amazing enough.
In the first quarter of the game, he also lived up to expectations, leading the team to play a momentum at the Home Ofegolets, the three-point line outside the three-point line is still hot today, under his infection, Thompson also brought his own shooting bag at the beginning, the Warriors played a good offense in the first quarter, bombed out 34 points, but Teacher Yo was not willing to show weakness, leading the Nuggets to play 32 points, only 2 points behind.
But the Nuggets did not expect that today's Warriors feel too hot, the second quarter of the game the Warriors did not weaken the attack in the slightest, Curry and Payton II on the bench are also a variety of three-shot cannons, wave after wave of offensive waves once to drown the Nuggets, fortunately today Gordon, Rivers and Barton performance than the last rebound, otherwise it is difficult to resist such a ferocious attack alone. The three-pointers of Barton and Rivers also once clashed with the Warriors, and the game was also very exciting, which made the fans look at it with great excitement.
At the end of the half, both teams played well, of course, the Warriors played better, after halftime they scored 69 points, and the Nuggets, although they did well and scored 59 points, still entered the second half of the game with a gap of 10 points.
In the face of this 2-figure point difference, or 0:2, the Home Nuggets know that there is no way back, the third quarter will be their last chance, sure enough, the third quarter began, the Nuggets immediately upgraded the defense again, at this time the Warriors were subject to physical strength and substitute play, the shooting rate was finally down, and the Nuggets seized the opportunity to counterattack immediately play a counterattack wave, in the third quarter was once chased into a draw, the Warriors although a little panicked, but relying on Thompson and other veterans to sit in the position is not chaotic, Tang Shen hit the fourth three-pointer in this quarter and directly surpassed Ray Allen to become the third in history. At the end of the third quarter, the Warriors were beaten 17-30 by the Nuggets, but instead trailed by three points into the final final game!
In the fourth quarter, the two teams played mars and hit the earth, and both the Warriors and the Nuggets were determined to win this game with 12 points. One is 3:0 and the other is 1:2, and the importance of winning or losing this game to this round of competition can be imagined. The two sides were biting minute by point, and with less than seven minutes left, the Warriors led by three points at 102:99. The two teams fought hand-to-hand like this, and neither of them gave up all kinds of grasping misplaced and making free throws on the body, but the balance of the final victory was still biased in favor of the Warriors, and they won the game with difficulty by relying on this wave of scoring!
