Rewriting the series score to 1-1, Morant showed off his superstarity, and the Pelicans must have regretted their actions in the 1919 draft. Compared to Zion's injury stop at every turn, his career has only played 85 games so far, Morant has proved his talent with his performance on the field, as well as his upper limit, in addition to physical fitness, Morant's projection development ability should be more malleable than Westbrook, today's game, Morant three-pointers 12 shots 5, the past two games three-pointers total 23 of 9, although the shooting rate is not very high, but Morant can throw such a three-point performance, for his type of impact guard, A lot of progress has been made.
Of course, the most different thing about Morant and Zion is not talent, but toughness in the game, seeing today's Morant confrontation, you must praise Morant for being really tough!
In addition to playing hard, Morant's ability to resist blows and resist injuries is also very hard. There are still more than 20 seconds left in the third quarter of the game, the Warriors' offensive round has a melee, Curry's breakthrough layup did not hit, Standing under the basket to compete for rebounds, Facing the Warriors' first evil man rushing to grab the rebound, the evil man fell to the ground, Morant himself was also hit, at this moment Morant has covered his eyes.
Although before the end of the third quarter, Morant got an empty opportunity at the three-point line, helplessly in front of the Warriors' bad guys, Morant did not choose to shoot, but gave the ball to teammates, but the teammates still very dependent on Morant, and finally gave the ball to Morant, and finally Morant had to press the whistle in front of him, after which Morant walked to the locker room, while saying: "I can't see." ”
Yes, Morant was blinded and couldn't see things, so he couldn't participate in the Grizzlies' last offense, but unfortunately his teammates didn't realize the problem and wasted a good offensive ball.
Morant, who can't see things, or returned to the field in the final quarter, you say he is hard or not? He actually dominated the game in the final quarter, scoring 18 points and taking the last 15 points of the Grizzlies, successfully leading the Grizzlies to equalize the series.
In an interview after the game, Morant admitted that his eyes were punched and it was still difficult to see. As for his dominant performance of 18 points in the last quarter, Morant is even more domineering: fortunately, my other eye is not a problem.
Hard it! The last quarter 18 points I only rely on one eye, Morant with such performance and response, to the Warriors issued a challenge, the series 1-1 draw, who can advance to the Western Conference Finals is not certain, because Morant does not say that the Warriors' defense is dirty, this round of the series down, I am afraid that there are few players who are not colored, Morant, Dream and Little Payton are injured, the only pity is Little Payton, Dillon is indeed worthy of criticism, but this is the playoffs, do not forget Leonard's story.
