On May 10, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs, the Golden State Warriors hosted the Memphis Grizzlies. At the end of the second quarter of the game, the Warriors shot a three-point shot, the audience could not help but stand up and applaud, and even a female fan had to cry, why were they so excited?
Because it was the Warriors' first three-point shot of the game, can you imagine? A team known for its three-pointers actually played almost half-time before shooting the first goal from the outside was incredible. Before the shot, the Warriors tried a total of 15 three-point shots, all of which hit the iron, and the basket was like a cap.
The first 15 shots, the distribution is like this: Klay Thompson has the most shots, a total of 5 shots, did not score. This was followed by Stephen Curry, who failed to score on 4 shots. The two made a combined nine shots, in line with their position on the team, but two historic three-point shooters, 0-of-9, are not in line with the norm. In addition, the upstart Jordan Pooler did not hit 2 shots, Wiggins shot 2 shots 0, and Damien Lee also had a shot, also missing. Only Otto Potter Jr. broke the embarrassment of 0.
With about 3 minutes left in the second quarter, Klay Thompson split the ball to Porter Jr. at the top of the arc, who made a decisive shot and finally hit it. As soon as the ball was scored, the audience immediately boiled, and the director also hurried to give the picture to the fans, wanting to see their reactions, as a result, it was difficult to hide their excitement, they all stood up and cheered and applauded, and even the female fan on the right below was about to cry, which showed how difficult it was.
At the end of the half, the Warriors weren't in good shape, scoring just 38 points in two quarters. Fortunately, the Grizzlies didn't score many points either, leading by only three points at 41-38 and still on the same starting line. The Warriors are so inaccurate in their three-point range and still not much behind, is it possible to console themselves and build an advantage once they find their feel? See.
