The Warriors are 3-1 ahead, leaving the Grizzlies with little chance! G4 is a backwater battle for the Grizzlies, and both from the player's psychological level and the current situation, the Grizzlies must win. If the Grizzlies take the Warriors, then the big score is 2-2 draw, what is the concept? It's definitely better than this side of the Grizzlies, because the Battle of King's Mountain is going back to Memphis' home stadium, and the Warriors are not easy to win. Without Morant, the Grizzlies led the Warriors by 47 minutes from the beginning to the end, and in the last minute, the Grizzlies were overtaken by the Warriors, and the big score also changed from a theoretical 2-2 to a 1-3 trail for the Grizzlies.
For the Grizzlies, it is now a lifeline, whether G5's Morant can come back is not easy to say, and the Warriors have now gained the momentum advantage, it is very promising to take down the Grizzlies. Even if the Grizzlies win the Warriors at home, then G6 will return to the Warriors' home court, and no matter how you look at the Grizzlies, it is not easy to play. The Warriors' 3-1 lead also means that one foot will step into the West Finals, and this season's playoff Warriors are the only team to lead 3-1. In terms of advantage, the Warriors are the biggest, which also means that the Warriors may be the first team to reach the division finals.
Whether or not it can be scored in the West Finals is not easy for the Warriors to achieve a 3-1 lead in the second round of the playoffs this season. Last season, the Warriors lost consecutive play-offs with "two lives", and after the game Curry was not very upset, but said a "big word" at the time: "No team wants to meet us next season!" "It's hard to believe that this is a player who didn't make the playoffs say it, and no one at that time thought the Warriors would be unstoppable next season, but the truth is that the Warriors of the first half of the season really didn't want to meet because it was too strong!
And before the season starts, ESPN has two season predictions for the Warriors, one is that the Warriors will make the playoffs as sixth in the West, which is the best result. The second is that the Warriors will enter the playoffs through the situation of playing playoffs, but the overall judgment is that the Warriors will rebound this season but the rebound will be small, and will not become the team that affects the league structure. Most people's eyes are still on the Lakers, Nets, Bucks, Suns and other teams, but in fact, the Warriors have indeed played an excellent dominance this season.
So now the test for the Warriors is bigger, winning the Nuggets is actually the Warriors have exceeded the original season predictions, and now that the big score is 3-1 ahead of the Grizzlies, it is difficult to say how far the Warriors can go. It seems that the Grizzlies may lose to the Warriors, and once the Warriors play the Western Conference Finals, it increases the possibilities of the future, at least the Warriors can have the impulse to win the championship. For the Warriors now, a Western Conference final seems to be no way to become the goal of the team, and winning the championship this season can be regarded as a real "face-punching" success, after all, the Warriors are also a small dark horse team this season.
