Wang Yi made a steal, allowing the Lakers to counterattack, thus widening the point difference to 7 points.
But looking back, the Warriors' Green also hit a first-level three-pointer, and the point difference narrowed to 4 points.
The two sides maintained a score difference of 4 to 6 points and played two more rounds.
The next time the Lakers attacked and Wang Yi and James played a pick-and-roll, the Warriors knew that Wang Yi was likely to pass to James, so they focused on guarding Wang Yi and James, but this time Wang Yi did not pass to James.
Or dribble directly to the basket and then take off.
His whole body was already outside the baseline, and he turned the ball back to Zhuang Shen in mid-air.
Zhuang Shen dunked easily.
The score difference came to 6 points again.
At this time the Warriors attacked again.
All Warriors players are still moving.
Wang Yi followed Curry to the right corner.
But while running, he kept watching the Warriors' line.
There was a gap between Green and Thompson was about to pass the ball to Green.
He immediately sprang out and ejected.
Instantly intercepted the ball in the air.
Riding Juechen, he charged forward.
But this time he didn't dunk directly.
Because James had followed him, he threw the ball toward the backboard.
After the ball bounced off the backboard, it was intercepted by James who followed up and ended the offense with a dunk.
This widened the point difference to 8 points.
And there are only the last 5 minutes left.
The Warriors coach quickly requested a timeout.
He glanced at Wang Yi with lingering fear.
This guy is really difficult to deal with.
Originally, when the Warriors and Lakers played against each other, the suspense would remain until the last moment.
As a result, this guy made two steals, which directly broke the balance.
If we don't deal with this guy, it will be difficult for the Warriors to win.
But how to deal with this guy?
It's impossible to defend alone, let alone double-teaming.
This is very difficult to do.
As an experienced veteran, Chase Green is also aware of the coach's troubles.
He smiled at coach Cole, showing his big white teeth - I don't know why I always feel that black people's teeth are very white. Is it because of the contrast between the skin on their faces?
"Coach, if you have any trouble, come to me. I will teach that guy a lesson."
Cole naturally knows what Green means?
Green is a dirty player. Although Cole, as his head coach, won't say it out loud, everyone in the Warriors knows it.
Now when Green said this, it was obvious that he was going to use dirty tricks against Wang Yi.
Cole pondered for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, but you must also pay attention to protecting yourself and don't move too much."
Cole said this not because he was afraid of hurting Wang Yi with too much movement.
But he was afraid that if he was called for a second-level flagrant foul, Green would be expelled.
Although some people have been advocating that friendship comes first and competition comes second.
But in the playoffs, especially in a game like the Western Conference Finals, if you really have no way to defeat your opponent, you can only use dirty moves.
This is just the Western Conference Finals.
If we reach the finals, many players will make even greater moves.
After all, it is already very difficult to reach the finals. Many players may be closest to the championship this time in their lives.
If you don't seize the opportunity to win this championship, you will never have another chance.
Naturally, they want to do whatever they can.
Trade an injury to your opponent for a championship.
I'm afraid at least half of the players will be willing, or even more.
After all, the championship is the lifelong pursuit of many players.
The timeout ends and players from both sides return to the field.
When the Warriors attacked, Wang Yi chased Curry.
When passing by Green, Green suddenly turned around.
It seemed that he was covering for Curry, but when Wang Yi was about to force his way past him, he suddenly raised his knee.
It pushed against Wang Yi's crotch.
In the previous three quarters, Green didn't move much, so Wang Yi was a little numb at this time.
However, when passing by Green, he still subconsciously took some defensive actions.
Feeling Green's leg coming up, Wang Yi quickly dodged to the side.
Green failed to reach Wang Yi's crotch.
But it hit the side of Wang Yi's thigh.
Wang Yi immediately fell to the ground and covered the side of his right leg.
Anyone with experience knows that pushing the side of the thigh like this will not hurt, but it will be very painful.
The referee did not take sides and quickly called Green a foul.
Green admitted generously and raised his right hand.
I just committed a foul.
At the same time, he looked down at Wang Yi with a ferocious expression on his face.
This is obviously a demonstration to Wang Yi.
You guys from the East should be restrained in front of me.
Since the referee only made a subconscious penalty, he did not see Green deliberately hitting Wang Yi's crotch.
So this foul was only called a common foul.
There was no replay on the big screen at the scene.
After the demonstration, Green turned around and walked away.
Wang Yi stood up and looked at Green's back.
There was no wave in his heart.
He had been waiting for Green to take action.
Since he had already taken the initiative, I naturally couldn't coddle him.
When the Lakers attack, Wang Yi and James play pick-and-roll.
When James reached the inside with the ball, Wang Yi followed.
James put his hand back and passed the ball.
When Green saw Wang Yi getting the ball and wanted to dunk it, it was a no-brainer and he pounced directly on him.
It wasn't that he was charging at anyone, but he was hitting Wang Yi head-on and face-first.
However, Wang Yi had already taken precautions.
His knees had already been bent, pushing against Green's abdomen.
You show me your head and face, and I show you your waist and belly.
We are each other.
At the same time, Wang Yi raised his left arm to protect his face.
Snap——
Green's hands slapped Wang Yi hard on the arm.
The crisp sound could be heard in the audience.
Wang Yi's right knee pressed against Green's abdomen.
The two of them hit the ground almost at the same moment.
Wang Yi covered his face and his chest heaved violently.
Although he had nothing to do, since both sides were attacking at the same time, whoever got up first would naturally lose.
At the same time, Green's lower abdomen was also hit hard by Wang Yi, which made him grin with pain.
His body was almost bent into a shrimp shape, and he was holding his lower abdomen and kept wailing and screaming on the field.
The referee blew the whistle immediately.
At the same time, it was determined that Green was fouled by the Warriors.
And after reviewing the video, it was added as a first-level flagrant foul.
When Green heard the referee's decision, he got up regardless of the pain.
"Did you make a mistake? Why did I commit the foul? Didn't you see how much pain I was feeling?"
The referee glanced up and down at the menacing Green standing in front of him.
Then he glanced at Wang Yi, who was still lying on the ground next to him, covering his face with his hands.
He shrugged.
The meaning is self-evident.
When you say you are in pain, you must at least look like you are in pain.
You stood by me so aggressively and asked me, how does this feel like pain?
Look at people, this is how a suffering person should behave.
