The NBA playoffs continued, with a focus game in the West, the first game of the semifinals, the Warriors away to challenge the Grizzlies, and finally they narrowly won 117-116 to take a 1-0 lead in the series. In the final moments, it was so exciting that Clay Thompson almost became a sinner.
In the end, with 3.6 seconds left, the Warriors were just one point ahead, but they didn't have the ball and the Grizzlies had the final touch. When the timeout comes back, all the Warriors have to do is defend at full strength and kill the opponent's chances of death. This last attack, the Grizzlies will definitely give to Ja Morant, just stare at him.
Sure enough, the ball was finally handed over to Morant, who took out the breakthrough basket that he was best at, almost the same as the one that killed the Timberwolves, but this time the ending was not so wonderful, and unfortunately he could not shoot. After the thrilling victory, the entire Warriors team celebrated happily, and the craziest of them must belong to Klay Thompson, why? For he has achieved the perfect redemption from a sinner to a hero.
Before the kill, the Warriors got two free throws and fell on Klay Thompson, who has always had a good free throw and a strong psychological quality, but this time he missed two free throws, which is really hard to imagine. Taking a lead of just one point means that the Warriors will hold the big knife of life and death and hand it over to the opponent. Fortunately, in the end, Klay Thompson relied on excellent defense to interfere with Morant, preventing him from shooting and avoiding becoming a sinner.
For the Grizzlies and Morant, it's a pity, but there's no way. This young team, especially the star Morant, has played very well this game, and there is no need to mind. From the series with the Timberwolves, it can be seen that the Grizzlies are very good at reversing, so the Warriors can't take it lightly, after all, they have only played one game.
