On May 10, Beijing time, the G3 battle between the NBA playoff focus of the Grizzlies and the Warriors won with Curry's consecutive free throws in the last quarter, and the Warriors reversed 101-98 to lead the Grizzlies 3-1. And in the last moment, Curry also used words and deeds to lead Poole to show the demeanor of a core player.
The Grizzlies lacked home coach Morant, the Warriors did not have coach Kerr, the G4 battle Warriors and the Grizzlies did not start to play to their familiar rhythm, the Warriors' three-point shots became extremely outrageous, and it was only in the last 3 minutes of the second quarter that Porter shot the team's first three-pointer, after the Warriors shot 0 of 15 from the team, including 0 of 9 for the Splash Brothers, and 2 for 0 for Tea Gour. The two teams that both played badly were like rookies pecking at each other, and the Grizzlies led 41-38 at halftime, yes, it was a half-game score, no Morant, but the Grizzlies brought some good conversion opportunities with tough defense, Kyle Anderson's performance was one of the better, and the Warriors Curry's three-point shot before halftime was his 500th three-pointer on the playoff stage and the first player in NBA history to achieve this achievement.
The Grizzlies' defensive intensity dropped at one point in the opening of the third quarter, and the Warriors chased down only 2 points after Curry scored three points, but Jenkins adjusted the tactics again through a timeout, the Grizzlies continued to play the inside advantage to rush, And Jalan Jackson and Adams' inside towers were full of deterrence, and the Grizzlies led by 12 points at the beginning of the fourth quarter. But after playing the fourth quarter, the Warriors have more scoring points, Curry, Klay Thompson, Wiggins all have key points, the point difference is chased to 1 point, and then equalized, the collision between Green and Jalan Jackson at the critical moment was blown a defensive foul, the challenge did not succeed, but the Grizzlies failed to seize the opportunity.
In the final minute, Curry punished the opponent with experience, first the Grizzlies blindly shot a three-pointer, Curry used the breakthrough to create a foul to take the lead, and then stuck in the rebound position to create another foul on the opponent.3. Curry hit seven of his eight free throw lines in the final quarter, especially when he was trailing 92-93 with six consecutive free throws to rewrite the game. In the end, the Warriors won 101-98 and led the Grizzlies 3-1.
Interestingly, after mastering the victory, Curry also deliberately communicated with Poole, and as a recognized successor, Curry's words and deeds to teach Pooler "make-up lessons" are indeed very touching.
