Chapter 696: A New High Score in a Single Game in the Playoffs
The Spurs' last attack, Duncan serves at the bottom line and gives Parker a push!
The old sports car pushed forward directly, but Conley stabbed the ball!
Xie Kai got the ball first after facial paralysis, and then led the ball forward!
Facial paralysis has no chance to foul for a while!
Xie Kai distributed the ball to the old prince on the other side!
The old prince attacked the empty opponent's basket and dunked the ball!
At this time, there are only 1.2 seconds left before the end of the game...
Almost everyone present did not expect that the script of the competition would be like this, and everyone had the words "confused" written on their faces.
The Spurs didn't expect that they would become like this.
At this time, the Grizzlies were already leading by 4 points with 97:93. Although the game has not ended, the suspense of victory or defeat has been completely lost.
The Spurs sent the ball, and the Demon Sword stopped shooting, and the whole game ended.
In the end, the Grizzlies defeated their opponents 97:93 at home, winning the first game of the Western Conference Finals.
At this time, Yu Jia, the host sitting in the CCTV studio, was still confused: "Teacher Xu, can you tell me what happened at the last moment of the competition? I almost couldn't understand it!"
Of course, Xu Jicheng knew that Yu Jia could not understand it, but the end of the game was somewhat unexpected and strange!
It was so coincidental that everything happened so coincidental. Because Conley poked the ball, the ball was just where Xie Kai could touch, and Chacha, the old prince did not come back in the frontcourt.
"This ball is a bit unconventional. The Grizzlies finally use defense to make the opponent come back in vain. This is the victory of the key ball and the victory of the defense!" Xu Jicheng said.
The streamers fell on the scene and the applause was thundering. The fans had the most say in this game.
Xie Kai played 43 minutes and 23 seconds in this game, making 15 of 32 shots, including 2 of 3 points and 14 of 16 free throws, scoring the highest 46 points, plus 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block.
In this game, Xie Kai was undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the team's victory. He set a new record for many personal records. 46 points was the single-game high in his NBA career playoffs (previously 44 points), and the number of free throws (16 times) also hit a new high (previously 11 times).
In addition to data, Xie Kai contributed a 2+1, a mid-range, a steal, and an assist in this game, and a perfect key ball performance, which made the team laugh to the end.
If anyone is the MVP of this game, there is no doubt that it is Xie Kai.
Post-match press conference.
When the reporter asked Xie Kai why the offensive desire was so strong in this game, Xie Kai smiled and said, "My offensive desire has always been very strong, hahaha..."
After the game, someone Diss Barkley - said Xie Kai could not perform well under the defense of the Spurs' wing, so come out and take two steps!
However, although the Grizzlies won, it still makes people worry. Many people think that Xie Kai scored 46 points and they only won 4 points. It can be seen that the Spurs have actually succeeded. They forced the Grizzlies to a dead end, and by the last moment of the game, they still have a chance to win.
Therefore, it is still early to assert that the Western Conquest has lost its suspense.
This game did make the Grizzlies sound the alarm. If Xie Kai hadn't gone wild, they would have probably explained this game.
Dave Joggel, the coach who just won the best coach of the year, was also very scared. The old thief Bobo was really amazing. The tactic of making Danny Green cut into 2+1 was really so sophisticated and out of the ordinary. He was indeed a little inflated before, thinking that he was already the best-selling coach in the league, but this game almost made him lose even his underwear. Fortunately, Xie Kai saved him.
Not only coach Dave Joggel was saved by Xie Kai, but also the actual situation where Danny Green scored 2+1 in the last moment and performed poorly in this game. If the game was finally won by his opponent, he would definitely be criticized after the game.
The Grizzlies and Spurs' second game in the Western Conference Finals will continue to play at the FedEx Stadium on May 22.
In this game, the Spurs, who lost the last game, did not change their team. They believed in their starting lineup and their strategy. They believed in Xie Kai's other 46 points in this game.
In this game, the Grizzlies, who escaped from the last game, no longer felt slow. The Black and White Bears established their advantage in the inside at the beginning and played Split early.
Split was beaten down, and Dior was beaten up by the black and white bears when he came up. The Grizzlies had obvious advantages.
Xie Kai performed steadily, not as many shots as he did in the last game. He turned into a top support, helping the crazy black and white bears and ravaging the opponent's inside line.
There is no suspense in the result of the game. The Grizzlies beat their opponents with double-digit home advantage, rewriting the series score to 2:0!
This game was like this process and result, which surprised many people. Everyone thought that the Spurs would have a chance and the game would be very anxious, but they didn't expect it to be like this.
This game is enough to show how powerful the Grizzlies with black and white bears + Xie Kai are. Their fault tolerance rate is too high. The East is not bright in the West, and the top defense in the league allows them to bite the score when they are in a bad state and wait for the return of their feel.
After this game, the Grizzlies' promotion probability given by ESPN has exceeded 80%. Of course, this probability is meaningless. It has a bit of a hindsight, but it can also reflect the promotion situation of both sides from the side.
Now the pressure is all on the Spurs, and if they want the series to continue, they must win the G3.
If you fall behind 0:3, then the Spurs will be the same as the Mavericks and the others.
On May 26, the West Finals G3, the AT&T Arena in San Antonio.
In this game, the Spurs changed their team! They brought Dior to the starter and let Split play as a substitute.
In this game, the Spurs showed their determination to win. They showed a strong sense of winning on both offense and defense.
The Grizzlies' black and white bears soon got off the court early due to fouls. In this way, the Spurs' inside line gained an advantage.
In this game, the Spurs also used a pinch attack on Xie Kai. Although not used throughout the game, they no longer allowed Danny Green and Leonard to defend him one-on-one.
The Spurs were always in the lead and eventually defeated the Grizzlies at home to tie the series to 2:1!
The victory of this game allowed the Spurs to keep the series suspense. This was a game they had to win, the Grizzlies could lose, and they had no way out.
Chapter completed!
