On May 2, in the NBA Playoffs Western Conference Semifinals G1, the Warriors narrowly defeated the Grizzlies by one point and led 1-0 in the series. In this game, Dream Green was expelled in the second quarter, and the final moments staged a divine plot, Morant led the team to the lead, Clay hit a key three-pointer to reverse the score, and Curry's block was also important. But what I didn't expect was that with a 1-point lead, Klay lost both free throws and the Grizzlies had a chance to kill. In the final moments, Morant's layup did not score, and he was unable to replicate the scene of the first round of the Timberwolves, so that the Warriors won on the road and beat the Grizzlies by one point.
After the game, Warriors coach Kerr talked about the poor feeling of the game in an interview, only Klay, who scored 15 points on 6-of-19 shooting, hit a key three-pointer, but lost two important free throws, but fortunately Morant lost the kill. Kerr said: "Clay felt chagrin for missing free throws, but you can always make up for it with excellent defense and he did it today. ”
The Warriors won the G1, leading the Grizzlies 1-0 by a large margin, it is worth mentioning that in the 7-game 4-win series, the Warriors' series to win G1 has passed 12 consecutive times, the 4th longest in NBA history, the 2nd longest at this stage, and the Lakers won the series after winning G1 24 consecutive times.
After the game, Dream Green, who had already washed up, greeted the winning teammate in the players' tunnel. Among them, Dream Green and Poole high-fived, hugged and greeted Clay, and Clay said something as he walked.
When they arrived at Curry, Dream Green greeted Curry, the two embraced, and Curry yelled, "You told me, you told me!" "The team struggled to win and the players were thrilled.
The Warriors are on the road, but there are still a lot of supporting fans outside their home stadium, the Chase Center, and the game is played on the big screen outside the scene, and when they see Morant's defeat, the Warriors fans cheer. Everybody is celebrating victory, it's not easy,
Now that the Warriors, who have won their first game, have regained home-court advantage in the series, the likelihood of promotion is greatly improved if they can win in G2. Of course, it can be seen from the game that the Warriors have encountered great resistance, and they still have a lot of trouble if they want to advance. Also look forward to the performance of both G2.
