The NBA is a commercial league in the final analysis, in order to be able to win the future of the new star, the league will obviously take sides in the playoffs, thus creating greater attention and gimmicks, the Western Conference Semifinals Warriors and Grizzlies series can clearly see this, the first game of dream green's second-degree malicious foul, and the last moment the referee directly ignored the Grizzlies out of bounds, forced the two sides to compete for the ball, to Morant to create a chance to kill, let many fans sigh that Curry has now become the cow lady in the eyes of the league, And Morant is the little sweet that everyone loves, but fortunately, the Golden State Warriors are competitive enough to narrowly beat the opponent in the case of 5 to 8, and won the opening of the series! But the referee's blowing penalty directly caused public anger, after the game, many NBA celebrities and active players have expressed their views on supporting the Warriors, but in the second game, the Grizzlies still have no fear of the care of the referee, the game just began, even the two members of the Warriors were injured, and they also maintained a long lead in the game, although under the leadership of Curry, the Warriors once saw the hope of winning, but the undercover performance of Klay Thompson in the last quarter allowed them to lose to the Grizzlies 106-101 , series big score 1-1 draw!
The referee let it go, and the Grizzlies had no fear
In competitive sports, the referee double standard is the most disgusting thing for fans, from the warriors and the Grizzlies first game can be clearly seen, the league in favor of the rising Grizzlies, which also makes the Grizzlies in the field become fearless, the game just started shortly after, Dillon Brooks in the pursuit of Little Peton, directly an elbow hit Payton's head, causing it to lose its balance and fall heavily on the field, and then also left the court early injury, this behavior directly made Kerr and Klay Thompson express dissatisfaction, Many fans even said that Dillon Brooks was no longer playing, such an action was simply killing people, and in the face of such a bad behavior, the referee could only expel Dillon Brooks from the game.
However, the Grizzlies did not restrain their movements, And when Tilman was fighting with Dream Green, he elbowed Green again, so that he had to return to the locker room for treatment, and after Dream Chase returned to the game, he could clearly see the stitch treatment marks in his eyes.
In addition to the two very bad fouls in the opening game, the Grizzlies' defensive action throughout the game was very large, and during the game, Poole complained to the referee many times that he was fouled by the opponent, but did not get a response from the referee, which is why they were in a difficult situation for a long time throughout the game.
Clay is undercover, and Curry is alone
Under the Grizzlies' aggressive unlimited change of defense, the Warriors' several major scoring points, completely unable to find the feel of the shooting on the outside, as the league's top three-point team, the Warriors shot 38 three-pointers in the whole game, only hit 7 goals, shooting only 18.4%, Wiggins 7-point shooting 1, Poole also inaccurate only 6 shots 1 performance, and the high hopes of Klay Thompson 12 of 2, the last moment not only three-point shots three-pointers, but also a low-level mistake of walking, Buried the hope of the team's victory!
As the greatest three-point shooter in NBA history, Curry also couldn't find a three-point feeling in this game for a long time, only 3 shots from outside the three-point line in the whole game, and under the strict defense of the Grizzlies, Meng Shen alone contributed 27 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, but he could not move the teammates who collectively pulled their crotches.
After losing the game, the Warriors regained home field advantage, hoping that Peyton Jr.'s injury is not a big problem, after all, his ability to tear on the defensive end is very important for the Warriors, and it is expected that he can return to the court as soon as possible to help the team impact the championship!
