Before Ja-Morant was injured, Jordan Poole's hand tugged at Morant's knee, and it became a hot topic of discussion for the past day. Was Morant maliciously harmed? This problem even alarmed the league officials, through multi-angle replay, the league will not impose additional penalties on Jordan Pooler.
Some people say that the league has returned Jordan Pooler's innocence, which is obviously inappropriate, in fact, Poole's action is a relatively normal basketball action, and Morant's injury by Poole is more like a misunderstanding. In addition to the Warriors' support for Poole, the Grizzlies players, including Jaren Jackson Jr. and Tyes Jones, believe that Poole is not a dirty player.
The reason why it is suspected that Poole injured Morant continues to ferment is largely due to too many accidents in this series.
Ja-Morant, grumbling about his injuries, said on social media that he had "crossed the line", but he later deleted it. This sentence is a satire on Cole, dillon Brooks' malicious foul on Gary Payton II, which caused him to be seriously injured, and cole said this about Dillon Brooks's behavior at the time.
But are jordan poole and Dillon Brooks' actions the same thing? Obviously, the series has been completely intense in the present moment, and there is no need to wait until any team is forced into a desperate situation, and the fight between the two sides is not limited to the field. The two sides are also fighting wits and courage, and things that change the course of the series may appear at any time.
So, it doesn't matter if It's Jordan Pooler who injured Morant, and muddying the water is certainly a favorable outcome for the Grizzlies.
Grizzlies coach Tyler Jenkins said he and the team believed Morant was injured by Jordan Poole — and earlier, Jenkins thought Jordan Poole didn't mean to do so. We don't know if Jenkins was pretentious or angry, but jenkins was the last person to want Morant's injury.
But in the eyes of the outside world, Jenkins and the Grizzlies are a bit overheated.
What did Charles Buckley say about it? He said: "Some people say he wants to hurt the child [referring to Morant], and I can't accept that view. I've been watching the games and every game we look to see if there are malicious fouls, first-level malicious fouls, second-level malicious fouls... I was kissed harder than that. ”
Barkley's ridicule is hilarious, but it is also very clear that he thinks about the matter, and Jordan Pooler's moment will not cause Morant to be injured. And sports expert Brian Sutterer has the same view, "... The force with which he pulled was not great, and from my point of view, it was not enough to cause a knee injury. ”
The confusion continues, but Warriors coach Kerr is already thinking about the next game, and he's not bothered by it. When interviewed by reporters, Cole was asked about the accident again, and he said directly: "I looked back at that round and there was nothing to comment on. ”
The Warriors' best hit back, of course, is in the game.
