There are 3 minutes left in the first quarter, and for the Warriors, chasing 7 points in 3 minutes is more than enough.

After three-pointers became popular in the league, the score gaps that made people think were huge in the past seem to be worth mentioning at all.

In the past few years, when the Lakers and Celtics played the finals, the scores of the whole game were often more than 80 to 70. But now? You rarely see that in that game, both sides did not score a hundred.

Strong defense and difficult scoring are a portrayal of the game at that time.

At that rhythm, once a side falls seven or eight points behind, it will appear very passive.

But now, because the three-pointer has been completely developed, even if one side is more than ten points behind in the game, it is sometimes completely unfair.

After all, more than ten points can be recovered in just a few three-pointers.

Therefore, the 7-point gap is not worth mentioning for the Warriors. What's more, they are in the situation where they have the advantage in lineup.

After the suspension ended and the players from both sides returned, both teams rotated.

On the Warriors, they just replaced Curry with Barbosa, Spetz with Green Livingston, Thompson and Barnes, and the remaining two main players who ended up staying for a minute or two before they came back to replace them.

Take turns to rest, this is Cole's 7-man rotation strategy.

On the Grizzlies, the number of rotations is much higher than that of the Warriors.

Delavidova replaced Conley, Iguodala replaced Tony Allen, Carter replaced Link, and Gasol replaced Harris. Among the five starting points, only Jimmy Butler, the most arduous one, was left.

Cole is full of confidence. In his opinion, the most threatening point in the Grizzlies' second lineup is Gasol.

But no matter how powerful Gasol is, he can only dig in two minutes and two minutes in the three-second zone. Such an attack cannot curb the Warriors!

3 points are one more than 2 points, which is something that even elementary school students can calculate.

As for the outside lineup of the Grizzlies... Delavidova, Iguodala and Butler's three-pointers are not very reliable.

Only the only one old Carter is left with a clear head, but Cole doesn't think that an old man who is nearly 40 years old can play a big role in this game.

Cole thinks he is sure to take this lineup!

The game started over and everyone thought the Warriors were dominant. So the live camera also gave Link a close-up.

But Link in the camera was not anxious. He easily rested his head on his hands, with an expression of "waiting for a good show".

If it were someone else, Mike Bryn would definitely tease this guy for being overconfident.

But Link made such a look...Mike Bryn thought that the Warriors should be careful.

The Warriors scored the first offense after returning from the timeout, and things seemed to go very smoothly.

Thompson misplaced in front of Delavidova, stabbed forward tentatively, and then quickly retreated and jumped.

Delavidova swayed. He thought Thompson was going to break through, so he took two steps back. But just now he retreated, and Thompson directly retreated from the three-point line and jumped decisively.

In this way, the Australians' blockade was half a beat slower. And this half beat was more than enough for Thompson.

Three-pointers were hollowed into the net. From the beginning to now, the Warriors have not scored so comfortably.

Cole waved his fist excitedly, and he thought he had expected it right. Rotation time, the Warriors can change everything!

The fans' shouts came from the Oracle Arena. After a three-pointer, the score difference was only 4 points left.

Now, Warriors fans are eager to not just equalize the score, but to take the lead directly.

They believe that as long as the Grizzlies' strong attack in the first quarter can be stabilized, the rhythm will slowly return to the Warriors' rhythm.

Old Carter looked at the score on the big screen with a serious expression.

He said that he would hold the score difference for Link!

After the Grizzlies attacked, the Warriors focused their defense on Gasol and Butler.

Carter could clearly see that Thompson was a little absent-minded when defending himself. The guy was always thinking about how to help defend, but he was not thinking about how to prevent the player in front of him.

Gasol mentioned receiving the ball at a high position and then facing the frame with his back. Spetz and the rest of the Warriors became nervous in an instant. No one noticed that Carter had already used Iguodala's unball cover and sneaked to the right outside the three-point line.

Gasol pushed in and looked like he wanted to force Speitz.

Spetz can't withstand Gasol's impact. Not everyone is like Draymond Green, who can make a big splash with a small splash.

In an instant, the Warriors' defense line tightened nervously. Gasol then seized the opportunity and pushed the ball hard with one hand, and sent the ball to Carter, who was ambushing outside the three-point line.

Thompson stepped forward to block the block, but it can be seen that his blocking was not very active. Thompson was not very excited about Carter, who averaged only 5.8 points per game this season.

He thought that just by scaring Carter, he would be enough to lose all the old guy's sight.

However, facing Thompson who raised his hand to him, Carter didn't even blink.

He stared at the basket, staring at the orange iron ring and the slightly swaying nets.

With a 17-year career, he was called one of the four major points guards, but he never played in the finals...

Carter was unwilling to give up, he didn't want his career to end like this.

When he was young, he failed to lead the team alone to touch honor.

But now, he is fighting side by side with the league's greatest star. He hopes to challenge his destiny again with a completely different role and identity!

And this time, he firmly believed that he could defeat his destiny!

Old Carter freezes in the air for a second, and then takes action calmly.

His shooting was as smooth as ten years ago. People only remembered his flying frame blasting performance, but always ignored the fact that he was a three-pointer killer.

The basketball goes over Thompson's palm and has a high arc. Carter's shooting has always been very high, because such a shot is easier to get hollow into the net!

"Vince Carter made a shot, and he seemed to want to give Thompson a goal, but..."

Before Mike Bryn could say the second half of the sentence, the basketball went straight to the net and entered the net!

Vince Carter made a three-pointer, and he made Thompson's slackness come at a price!

Mike Brin wanted to say, "But it's not easy for Carter to score goals in front of young people now." Fortunately, he didn't say it. Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing.

After scoring the goal, Carter pointed to Link on the bench and then hit his chest a few times.

Link stood up excitedly and raised his right arm, and responded with three fingers.

Mike Brin smiled, yes, a veteran like Carter may not be able to perform well in the regular season.

But in the playoffs, in such a critical battle.

You can never underestimate the combat effectiveness of such a person!

The difference between scores changed back to 7 points. Cole felt that he was about to climb the cliff when he was kicked down by the Grizzlies.

But even so, most Warriors players and fans on the scene still did not take Carter seriously.

Carter did make a good shot just now, but he couldn't resist the Warriors' counterattack alone.

The Warriors made their second attack, this time, Livingston attempted to break through Carter and go to the basket to score.

Although Livingston has experienced major injuries, his athletic ability is still better than the elderly Carter.

Seeing this, Spets pulled Gasol outside the three-point line. As long as Livingston could break through Carter, he could easily score a goal at the basket!

Livingston did it, and he successfully shook Carter away with a quick change of direction and rushed to the basket.

But Carter quickly chased back, sticking around Livingston throughout the whole process, between him and the basket.

So Livingston broke through to the basket and suddenly stopped suddenly, then raised the basketball, trying to use this fake shot to shake Carter away.

However, Carter stepped on the wooden floor as if the soles of his feet were rooted! Livingston swayed, but he did not jump. When Livingston really took the second move, Carter jumped up in time and followed him!

"Bang!"

Livingston's layup was blocked by Carter, and the Warriors' offense seemed to be in a dead end again.

"With a beautiful block, Carter can't jump high, but he can still complete the defense with his excellent judgment. Livingston's best not to use these bad ideas in front of Carter. These little tricks are left to Carter's play back then!"

While speaking, the Grizzlies' counterattack had already been pushed up.

As soon as Delavidova dribbled outside the three-point line, she heard Carter raise his hand and shout at him.

The Australian did not hesitate and immediately distributed the ball to Carter who cut in from the side.

Carter's sudden acceleration caught Thompson off guard. By the time he wanted to stop it, Carter had already received the basketball and rushed into the basket.

Seeing Carter breaking through the momentum, Link couldn't help but stand up. Could that guy be...

Thompson followed Carter, only seeing Carter break into the penalty area and push his legs and raise the basketball with his arms, and his whole body rises towards the basket.

Carter gritted his teeth and watched the basket get closer and closer to him, he felt that his body became much lighter in an instant.

Well, it's been a long time, I haven't breathed the air above...

"boom!"

Carter dunked his hands, and the basket couldn't help but sink a few centimeters under his pull!

The old flying man, who is nearly 40 years old, is still gliding over the league!

Let go, land, the basket creaked.

Carter glared at Thompson fiercely, then turned to retreat.

Cole on the sidelines was shocked. He didn't expect Carter to perform a good scene of cutting into the dunk. Thompson was also shocked. He couldn't believe that he was facing an old player who was nearly 40 years old.

His fighting spirit, his level and his desire for victory are no less than any young player on the court!

After Carter returned to his half, he opened his arms and waited for the Warriors to attack again.
Chapter completed!
