The Nets quickly formed a 3-on-2 situation in the frontcourt. After a while, Lin Ying received Bradley's pass, jumped into the air, and smashed the ball directly towards the basket through Curry!

Curry did not avoid it like he did in the All-Star Game, but stretched out his hand to meet it.

But the scene in front of me can be best described in four words: a mantis acting as a chariot.

A little brave, but also a little tragic!

"Bang!"

In the eyes of the fans, Lin Ying directly smashed the ball into the basket through Curry, and the huge impact directly knocked Curry over into the crowd of photographers under the basket.

The scene was agitated, and many viewers looked distressed.

When did the Warriors need Curry to serve as a background again and again, and then block the gun?

But compared to Curry's fall, what was more dazzling came from the following scene.

After James chased the ball to the backcourt, he glanced at Curry and did not pull him. He turned around and prepared to serve.

On the contrary, Lin Ying saw that Kuli didn't get up, so he reached out and gave him a hand.

Curry smiled bitterly after getting up, and then continued to attack.

At this time, not only Cole, but also several people in the commentary box, including many spectators in the audience, also noticed the changes in James.

But most people didn't know what was going on. Barkley and the others were just there complaining about James' performance.

"Disappointment", "Maybe this is the reason why he couldn't succeed", words like this are endless.

It was in this atmosphere that the Warriors began to gradually collapse.

Basketball games are not simple math problems. This sentence has been proven countless times and it still applies to this finals.

Which team is stronger, last year's 73-win Warriors or this season's Warriors?

The answer may be easier.

But which one is stronger, tonight's Warriors team or last year's Warriors team in the Finals?

This may be a question mark.

At halftime, the Nets led the Warriors by 15 points, 58-43.

This is also the largest point difference between the two teams since the finals.

It’s still unclear whether Green’s formula will ruin this Warriors team, but tonight’s game has already been ruined.

On the way back to the locker room after halftime, Curry turned his arm and took a look.

There was a large scratch on his relatively thick arm.

It was thrown out after being dunked by Lin Ying. There was no bleeding at that time and no treatment was given.

I was concentrating during the game, but now I feel burning pain after resting for a while.

"well enough?"

Thompson noticed this behind him and came over to ask with concern.

Curry forced a smile and nodded.

Compared with the scratch, what hurts him more now is his heart.

Hidden beneath his thin, even sometimes entertaining personality is a heart with a strong desire to win.

Not everyone can be questioned from the beginning and then develop into a superstar step by step after suffering an ankle injury that is almost devastating for a defender.

His success, in addition to his shooting talent, is inseparable from his hard work.

Last year's 73-win overall runner-up was actually the most uncomfortable thing for him. He thought he could bring more to the Bay Area.

This is why he kept his profile so low when recruiting James in the summer.

He just wants to win, and he will make any sacrifices to win.

Even if the coaching staff now arranges for him to play as a substitute, he is willing to do so if it can help the team win.

But now, even though he tried his best, he could not reverse the decline.

His current emotions are extremely complicated, partly because he has never been able to find his touch, and partly because of the conflict between Green and James.

He is confident that he can get his touch back in the second half, but the cracks caused by Green's formula can no longer be repaired.

And he knows Green's character very well, and he also knows James' personality.

It is unrealistic to persuade Green to apologize to James, and even if he reluctantly does so, it will not come from the heart.

As for James, when faced with the apology, he would most likely accept it verbally, and then hugged and said that we are still brothers, but we will still do what we should do on the field.

What could be more heartbreaking than facing such a situation and trying to make up for it, only to find that it is as irreparable as a broken mirror and can even cut one's fingers?

After the halftime break, the game between the two sides continued.

Neither team made any adjustments to their starting lineup, and the Warriors took the lead in the second half.

Curry made a splash as soon as he came up. He took the initiative to hold the ball and hit a quick three-pointer after picking and rolling with Green.

After hitting a three-pointer, Curry gave a rare roar. He was venting his anger and wanted to use this method to inspire his teammates.

This directly detonated Oracle Arena.

With a big score behind at halftime, Curry's three-pointer sent a very positive signal.

Moreover, the Warriors still have the "Brave Three Crazy". As long as Curry can get better, being 15 points behind at halftime is not a big deal for them.

But reality soon gave them a heavy blow.

Because on the Nets side, Durant immediately hit a three-point answerball from the outside!

The Geminis fought fiercely at the beginning, but after the half-time break, their physical fitness also recovered!

In the third quarter, Curry regained his touch, but could not withstand the firepower of the Gemini stars. This was a drama of "two fists are difficult to beat with four hands".

Moreover, the Nets are getting smoother and smoother, especially for Durant, who is good at shooting. The smooth shooting really depends on how he shoots.

You can throw the ball in at an angle, with one hand, or even with your body twisted.

There was an air of despair throughout Oracle Arena.

With two minutes left before the end of the third quarter, the Nets had already opened the point difference to more than 25 points.

There is no suspense in the game.

However, Lu only replaced Lin Ying to rest, while Durant remained on the court.

Durant has already scored 39 points, and with two more points he will get his first 40+ points in the Finals.

Lu is still very considerate in this regard.

On the Warriors side, Cole was the only main force that was not replaced. I don’t know if he was planning to call it quits after this quarter, or if he was treating this as a punishment.

Then it was against this background that an accident happened.
Chapter completed!
