Chapter 590: Children of the Golden State

"The score has been beaten back. Whether facing the Warriors or other teams, I, the Pacers, can fall behind at the beginning, but in the third and fourth quarters, he can always get back this difficult game. Their tenacity is too strong." These words have appeared countless times in the playoffs, but I have to say that it will never be wrong if you have been said.

The Pacers were in trouble at the beginning of the three playoff games against the Warriors, but they all played back. Before that, they had 14 wins and 0 losses in the playoffs, but from the semi-finals, they were slightly behind in the first quarter and behind in the half-quarter. There were not many scenes like this, but they were beaten back by the Pacers every time.

Now even if the opponent becomes the Warriors, there is no change. After Lin Sen's crazy performance in the third quarter, the Pacers are now two points behind at 85:87. If it weren't for the three-pointer from the bottom corner of Gallinari received the pass from the empty corner in the last attack and did not hit, the Pacers would have continued to play with the Warriors with one point advantage.

The Warriors naturally don't want to repeat the same mistakes in the fourth quarter. They must hold the victory of this game firmly in their hands. A 0:3 behind is not a good thing. They became the background board for others to create history two years ago, but they have no idea to create history, which means they will have to bear unprecedented pressure and the most difficult schedule.

No one wants to play such a final. Although the 4:3 turnaround sounds great and creates history, they want to solve the game 4:0 earlier and then run on vacation easily.

"You guys, you hear it clearly. The 2015 championship doesn't satisfy us. Stephen, you have to fight for your FMVP. You have to get the lost in 2015. As for Kevin, don't forget why you came to the Warriors. Here, you won 10,000 Western Conference championships, which is also a failure."

At this time, Cole also began to instill chicken soup in his players brainlessly. He needed to use these things to let the players get their form back, especially their double MVP. Tonight, these two men were in a little bad form in the third quarter, and Durant, who had always performed extremely stably, was simply beaten off the court after two consecutive fouls in the third quarter.

These two points are said to be in the hearts of the two core teams. One of them won two regular season MVPs but not the finals MVP! The other only has regular season MVPs and no championships. Barkley has been ridiculed by O'Neal with a ring countless times on the commentary stage. Sometimes, whether or not there is this championship is a very important thing. For these historical superstars, championships do not represent everything, but if not, it represents many other meanings.

No matter what, Durant and Curry were aroused their desire to win and lose. They were originally the finals, and their desire to win and lose is already full.

Curry went on the court to continue to master the rhythm of the game. He did not play the Warriors' traditional fast attack rhythm, but began to suppress the rhythm and attack the position. The purpose was very simple. He could not play an advantage in speed. If the fast attack could not maintain the success rate, it would be easy to be played by the opponent. The Pacers' counterattack had obviously stronger impact on the basket.

The tactics of this positional battle did not come out. In the Pacers' defensive tactics, Iguodala and Green were able to relax with three-pointers quickly in the playoffs, while Curry was chased by Oladipo and Collison to defend.

Curry, who was half a step away from the three-point line, chose to take a step back at this position and retreated directly to a further position to start his Sun-Sky mode. He took a step back one meter away from the three-point line and passed through the net.

The score difference reached 5 points again, but the Warriors fans did not let go of their hearts. They were worried about Lin Sen's attack. As expected, Lin Sen's touch still continued to be hot at the beginning, but he was not as tough as he was at the beginning. Instead, he used the Warriors lineup to prevent him from continuing to turn upside down and shrink in the inside line to win the first ball in the fourth quarter at the middle distance. This is Lin Sen's normal scoring method, but because he suddenly became extremely tough in the third quarter, everyone forgot that he was originally a player who could kill at the middle distance.

Although this mid-range hit allowed the Pacers' score to further bite the score, there was no panic for the Warriors. Which three-pointer Curry's just now had proved that the unreasonable 16-year MVP game still existed.

Oladipo's close-fitting defense started after halftime. The extremely long three-pointer just now made Oladipo's head dizzy. Although the three-pointer was not his specialty, he also knew how difficult it was to take a quick move of one meter in the three-point line of the step back gift box. So Oladipo was really a little confused about such a scattered attack. There was no problem with him increasing his defensive intensity after this.

Durant came up to the outside of the three-point line and took a pick-and-roll. Even this pick-and-roll forced the Pacers to switch defenses in front and bypass the pick-and-roll? It doesn't exist. In such a situation where the three-pointer feels so full, going around the pick-and-roll in the back is basically to test the feel of the opponent's shooter. Naturally, the Pacers cannot do this.

Before Grant switched to Curry, Curry, who was probably hesitant to play against Linson, was more determined when facing Grant, an excellent outside defender, and changed direction and took a step back. After moving horizontally, he made a three-pointer with a little drifting feeling, and hit again. Just one minute in the fourth quarter, Curry hit the second three-pointer in the quarter.

"mvp!mvp!" The call rang out throughout the game. This mvp is not referring to the regular season mvp now. They look forward to Curry winning the finals mvp. Judging from the previous two games, Durant's data is better than Curry, but if you ask who is the most popular star among Warriors fans, there is no doubt that at least 80% of Warriors fans will vote for Curry.
