The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 268 It's Interesting

The Warriors sent the ball to the sideline, Curry immediately turned around and shot after receiving the ball, Li Pu saved it with all his strength, Curry swayed in the air to avoid Li Pu's block, but unfortunately missed!
At the same time, the referee's whistle blew, the entire arena was boiling, and the fans cheered wildly while shaking the cowbell.

Won, they won again!

Looking at his celebratory opponent, Curry shook his head with his braces on his hips.

At 98:96, the Kings rewritten the big score of the series to 2:0 at home.

Game 4 of the two-team series officially takes place on April 21.

The other players of the Kings in this game did not perform as well as the previous game, mainly because the Warriors increased their defense.

But doing so would undoubtedly weaken Li Pu's defense here, causing Li Pu to play extremely efficiently tonight.

So at the end of the first three quarters, the Kings led the Warriors by as much as 11 points.

However, in the fourth quarter, the Warriors suddenly felt the touch. Thompson, who made 8 of 0 three-pointers in the first three quarters, hit two 3-pointers in this quarter.

Plus a three-pointer from Curry, the Warriors once tied the score.

At the critical moment, it was Li Pu who directly used a "2+10" in the paint, which caused Green's sixth foul and allowed Green to graduate early.

Then he used two hooks to completely seal the victory.

In this campaign, Li Pu scored 32 points and 22 rebounds, and once again defended his reputation as an MVP candidate this season with a large double-double.

As a result, the voice of bragging that the Kings would be black-sixed by the Warriors before the game suddenly disappeared, and everyone was unanimously optimistic that the Kings could kill the Warriors 4:1, or even 4:0, and advance to the next round.

"The Warriors aren't that strong either!"

"That is, as long as there is no problem with our offense, they are not our opponents at all!"

In the locker room of the home team in the arena after the game, the players of the Kings were chatting and laughing.

Li Pu had just finished the interview and went to take a shower. He frowned when he heard what his teammates said.

He is not as optimistic as his teammates. In the eyes of others, Curry is just an All-Star, but Li Pu knows that he will be a historical star in the future.

But in this case, the team's consecutive victories made his teammates not listen to him no matter how much he emphasized the strength of the opponent.

Not to mention teammates, even members of the coaching staff, everyone had a smile on their faces, unable to hide their inner joy at all.

I'm afraid that the next trip to Auckland will not be so smooth!
Three days later, on April 4, the Kings came to Oakland, not far from Saskatchewan, ready to start the third game of the series.

Since the distance between Saskatchewan and Auckland is only 130 kilometers, many fans of Saskatchewan came to Oakland to buy tickets to cheer for the team.

In addition, in San Francisco, which is across the bridge from Oakland, there are many local Chinese who came to the scene to support Li Pu.

So, for a while, there were many fans cheering for Li Pu and the Kings at the Oracle Arena in Oakland.

However, tonight's game disappointed the fans who came to support Li Pu.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides played back and forth, but when the score came to 6:7, Curry began to show off.

He first assisted David Lee to hit a mid-range shot, and then hit three three-pointers in a row. One shot was more difficult than the other. Even Li Pu sealed his hand to his face, and he was still close!
Curry then fouled Giannis and made two free throws.

In just over two minutes, Curry scored 11 points in a row, beat the Kings 13:0, and directly stunned the Kings.

If it wasn't for Li Pu's mid-range jumper, the point difference would have been even wider!
Even so, the Warriors beat the Kings 17:39 after Curry scored 24 points in the first quarter, leading by 15 points in a single quarter.

After that, the Kings chased for three consecutive quarters. Unfortunately, except for Li Pu, the rest of the team played really poorly, and it was difficult to give Li Pu effective help.

Even the Warriors once pinched Li Pu and emptied the rest of the Kings, but even so, it was still difficult for others to score.

In this way, although Li Pu played 38 minutes and scored 33 points and 11 rebounds, even in the fourth quarter, he once narrowed the point difference to 8 points.

But at the most critical moment, it was Curry's three-pointer that interrupted the Kings' momentum of chasing points.

In the end, the Kings defeated the Warriors 97:118, and the Warriors tied the series to 2:1.

In this campaign, Curry made 14 of 7 three-pointers and scored 33 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, making him the best player in the game.

Seeing this scene, domestic fans even called out "abnormal quasi"!
On April 4, after another 27 days, the fourth game between the two teams was held again at the Oracle Arena.

If it is said that in the last game, the Kings thought that they were won by the Warriors because of their carelessness, then this time, the Kings made all preparations in advance.

From the beginning of the game, they tried their best to defend Curry, not only to defend Curry from scoring, but also to defend Curry from receiving the ball.

Even Li Pu and Giannis, when facing Curry, have to delay as much as possible to prevent Curry from breaking out.

It has to be said that in this game, the Kings' restrictions on Curry were very effective.

Curry played 45 minutes, but only made 16 of 6 shots and only scored a pitiful 14 points.

But even in this case, the king still lost.

Because they had calculated everything, but they didn't expect that the people who broke out in this game were not Curry, but Klay Thompson and David Lee.

Even Li Pu didn't expect this, after all, it's not the sixth game yet? Why did the G6 soup explode first?

With the Kings' defensive focus on Curry, both Thompson and David Lee got plenty of chances.

The two also seized these opportunities and scored 46 points together, which perfectly made up for the points that Curry lost here.

The library is gravitational and has achieved initial results!

Even so, the Kings still had a chance to equalize or even overtake the score until the end of the game.

But at the last moment, Li Pu's breakthrough collided with Green and was called an offensive foul, which completely lost the suspense of the game.

Although Li Pu thinks this is a wrong decision, it is a pity that there is no video challenge in this era, and the referee will never change the decision.

In the end, the Warriors scored 109:105 and tied the big score of the series to 2:2.

Sure enough, the Warriors are not so easy to play.

Originally, the Kings were tied 2:2 by the Warriors, which should have caused quite a stir, but no one cared about it except for the fans of the Kings and Warriors, because the 2:2 in the first round of this year's playoffs was too much. too much.

西部除了国王与勇士这组，其他三组也都是2:2平，东部除了热火4:0山猫，奇才3:1公牛，其他两轮系列赛同样是2:2平。

This year's playoffs are really interesting!
