When the Warriors called for a timeout, there were less than five minutes left in the first quarter.
Facts have proved that although the five minors are the Warriors' trump card, they cannot effectively kill the 76ers.
Because the 76ers' inside advantage is large enough, Cousins' threat to rebounds and the pressure on Green put the Warriors at risk of being crushed before using their speed to kill him.
Therefore, the insiders do not say that they have an advantage over the 76ers, at least they cannot become a disadvantage.
Ever since, they replaced Wall to rest, Curry became the master on the court, and then let Gasol return to the game to compete against Cousins.
In the first round in exchange for Gasol, Curry dribbled the ball and singled out Wei Xia.
His speed was not as fast as before, and the speed of his movements was a little slower, but the sense of rhythm was still there.
Wei Xia is rare, a defender who doesn't eat much dribbling rhythm.
But Curry's shooting threat is too great!
When Curry received the ball like a jazz dance and pretended to be about to shoot a three-pointer, Wei Xia couldn't help but take off.
No one can remain indifferent after seeing Curry's shooting tendency.
He is such a dangerous attacker.
Wei Xia jumped up. Although he was shaken, he roughly blocked Curry's shooting sight.
He had to lower his heart and wait for Wei Xia's body to jump away from him to make a time difference.
Due to his embarrassing position, his shooting method is basically out of touch with his own rhythm. This shot depends entirely on his touch.
He jumped inside the three-point line, the arc of the ball was far less supple than his usual, but the ball was still flying in the direction he expected, spinning - whoosh!
18 is better than 12
6 points is like the bottom line of the Warriors. No matter how the 76ers struggle, they must ensure a lead of at least 6 points.
For this, they can stimulate their potential as much as possible on the offensive end.
On the defensive end, they fought hand-to-hand with the 76ers.
Tonight's referee was clearly on the Warriors' side.
Nick Butchert is still the same, he doesn't blow the home whistle, but he usually doesn't blow the away whistle either.
Suddenly using two standards to treat the game shows that he encountered some pressure from outside the court.
The Warriors represent a new era of basketball and the biggest achievement since Adam Silver took over the league.
He hopes to be able to build a team that can cause a sensation according to his own ideas, like David Stern.
Just like Hukai in the 80s and the Bulls in the 90s.
The Warriors did it, with 74 victories, but no one expected that they would fall behind 2-3 in the playoffs.
If they lose to the 76ers, it is equivalent to declaring that the first phase of the alliance's god-making plan has failed.
In any case, the Warriors defeating the 76ers and becoming the new king is the result that the league most wants to see.
The change in the referee's attitude is one of the evidences.
All kinds of conditions were not good for the 76ers. They dragged a 6-point difference, and in the 10th minute of the first quarter, Wei Xia went to the basket with the ball and caused a foul by the opponent.
A rare free throw opportunity, not to be wasted.
That was the 76ers' best chance to score in one minute.
Wei Xia adjusted his focus and made two free throws.
17 is better than 22
The difference between the two sides was 5 points. After more than ten seconds, the 76ers replaced Wei Xia.
In the past ten minutes of playing, Wei Xia scored 8 points, which has exceeded half of the team's total points.
If it weren't for his injury, Wright might have let him continue playing.
Now he is injured. If the injury worsens, it will affect the future of the 76ers. Therefore, if there is a chance, he must be allowed to rest.
Wei Xia walked off the field, the pain in his left leg was like an ambush, and as soon as his body relaxed, he rushed out, reminding him that the real test was far from coming.
Before the opening of the second quarter, Wright went to the sidelines to receive an on-site interview with Seg.
Sager articulated the question fans are most concerned about: "How is Wish's shoulder injury?"
"I know everyone is worried about Wish. According to the second examination at the local hospital in Philadelphia, Wish's shoulder is actually fine. Please rest assured."
The game has already started, there is no need to set off smoke bombs.
Otherwise, in order to win the game, let the players with dislocated shoulders work hard on the court, this hat is enough for him.
"So, Wish is healthy?" Sager asked unexpectedly.
"No!" Wright denied. "No player is healthy. Wish is not healthy. He has injuries all over his body."
You can't make people think that you don't care about the physical condition of the players and only care about the game, and you can't make people think that Wei Xia is normal. If you don't play well, it's your own fault.
Being a coach is not easy.
Wright bypassed Sager with ambiguous answers.
By the end of the first quarter, the Warriors were 28 to 21, leading the 76ers by 7 points.
In the second quarter, the 76ers let Cousins also come down to rest.
Leading the team on the court are Rondo, Holiday, Hayward, Robertson and Faried.
According to the Warriors' algorithm, the 76ers' current lineup is a standard set of five minors.
There is no seven-footer to support the penalty area, and it depends on the athletic ability of the wing to fill the gap.
The offensive problem that should have arisen did not appear immediately.
Hayward, who had performed poorly in the previous five finals, stood up when the 76ers needed him most.
Three-pointers from the outside line stabilize the morale of the army.
The low back hit actually narrowed the point difference to 3 points.
If it weren't for Thompson's ruthlessness and follow-up three-pointer to bring the point difference back to 6 points, the rhythm of the game would be in the hands of the 76ers.
The two sides fought hard for two and a half minutes. Hayward, as the core of the offense at this stage, broke through the block with the ball.
He supported the 76ers' offense for two and a half minutes alone.
Now blocked, the Warriors' counterattack was as fierce as a fire.
Wall's speed with the ball has already surpassed other people on the court, and the dunks in the frontcourt are more like closing the game.
33 is better than 25
With an 8-point advantage, a double-digit lead is imminent.
Wright could no longer let Hayward play alone. He called Wecha, who had rested for nearly 5 minutes, and replaced Holiday, who had played for 15 consecutive minutes.
"Will the return of Wish change the situation on the field?"
Every time Wei Xia took a step, his left leg was connected to the pain-sensing nerve, as if a person with a huge energy for getting up was suddenly awakened.
It expresses its anger to Wei Xia by conveying pain.
Wei Xia walked into the field expressionlessly and said to Rondo: "Pass me the ball."
Upon hearing what he said, Rondo knew that Wei Xia wanted to play singles.
But can he move now?
After halftime, Rondo crossed the ball to Wei Xia on the outside.
Wesha is facing Thompson, who is the Warriors' best offensive player tonight.
Game6 is just the penultimate game of the series for others, but for him, it's like pulling the alarm.
Since the start, he seems to be another level of offensive player.
As long as the opportunity comes to him, he raises his hand and makes a shot.
He scares Sixers fans.
Seeing him take the ball, a bunch of children covered their eyes and prayed for God's blessing.
"I can't let a dislocated person score easily under my hands!" Thompson made a defensive posture, and then said to Wei Xia.
Wei Xia dribbled the ball with his left hand, and said: "In order for you to better accept failure, I will call a pick and roll, throw off your defense, and then shoot a three-pointer, just like Stephen!"
Thompson didn't have a chance to answer, and Faried's pick-and-roll stalked him.
Wei Xia passed the pick-and-roll and dribbled the ball with his left hand to the left of the three-point line. Before Green could pounce forward, he collected the ball and shot it as fast as a buzzer.
The basketball flies high.
What awaits the Warriors is not the sound of iron strikes, but the sound of a basketball hitting a hollow shot.
28 is better than 33
Thompson's surprise hadn't disappeared, but he felt someone next to him.
It feels like a woman snuggling up to him at night, but snuggling on the court is destined to be impossible for him to enjoy like a bed partner.
With Curry not on the court, Wei Xia put his defensive focus on Thompson, and he must limit this man's performance.
"If you think you can prevent me, just come!" Thompson said confidently.
His self-confidence seems to be very high.
Wei Xia's defense against others does not rely on self-confidence.
He relies on his footsteps and persistence. As long as he can keep up with his footsteps, he will have enough physical fitness.
If it takes all your strength to keep up with someone, stick to it.
To put it bluntly, defending Curry and Thompson is an endurance challenge for him.
Thompson can run more and has more tactical screens. His catch and shoot accounted for 90% of the offense, and preventing his catch equals preventing his offense.
Thompson couldn't imagine what kind of pain Wei Xia was enduring in chasing him.
All he knew was that he was haunted by demons and that his teammates had trouble putting the ball in his hands.
Wall barely broke through the offense and hit the iron with a throw.
The 76ers, without a seven-footer, tasted the bitter fruit that the Warriors once tasted.
Drummond swiped offensive rebounds as he wished, swiped three in a row, and ended the offensive round with 2+1 after hitting the back.
Fortunately, Drummond's free throws were not stable enough.
Missed the shot and the rebound was protected by the 76ers.
The good times didn't last long, and Wei Xia heard the whistle behind him just after halftime.
Green, who stayed in the frontcourt to harass Rondo, somehow forced out Rondo's elbow.
That scene happened in front of the referee's eyes, and Green only needed a little acting skills to cheat the foul.
He did it, and Rondo was called an offensive foul. It was like a leaky house and it rained overnight. The 76ers are falling into a comprehensive decline.
