Chapter 453: Passing the First Round

Yang Di showed the deterrence of the "big gate" in the restricted area, and in the game with the Clippers, except for the third game, he sent a lot of blocks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the previous four games, Yang Di averaged 29 points, 15 rebounds and 4.75 blocks per game, and although the scoring was not the highest among the players who participated in the playoffs, the rebounds and blocks were the first in the league.

The pundits have changed the limelight again, and they all believe that the Warriors can settle the battle at home and beat the Clippers to advance to the second round.

And this is Yang Di's third season, but Yang Di has learned how to win, many stars in the league have been very confused in the first few years of their careers, although they have played super data because of their strength, but they always lose to others overall.

In the face of money and victory, Yang Di seems to have achieved a balance between it, not to mention that his own salary is not high, after this season, Yang Di only has two years left on his contract, and by the end of his contract, he is only 24 years old, and the Warriors will definitely try to renew his contract with the maximum salary.

On May 1, the Oakland Arena, the Warriors and Clippers G5 went to war.

The Chinese fans who pay the most attention to the Warriors are the ones who have not made it to the playoffs, and Yang Di has become the object of attention of all Chinese fans, whether they like Yang Di or not.

On this day, there are more than a dozen Chinese media in Oakland, and the Warriors are officially open to this part of the Chinese media, after all, the more the Warriors are promoted in China, the more they can achieve a larger share of the market, and the value of the entire team can be improved.

Nowadays, most of the teams in the NBA are losing money, and the few teams that can make money include the Rockets and the Warriors.

Yu Jia, the host of China's largest CCTV5 station, came to the scene, behind which was the Warriors who were preparing for training.

"Before the game, the Clippers sent out a ruin announcement, Elton Brand, Corey Margetty, Kassel and many other Clippers players vowed to bring the game back to Los Angeles, so what was this game like? Will the Warriors win with the same devastating momentum as they did in the last game? Let's wait and see......"

The camera switched to the court, Yang Di, who was wearing a training uniform, was practicing his jump shot, and he kept hitting the ball in the middle distance, and the rhythm, feel and shooting rate all made Dunleavy, the head coach of the Clippers who was silently observing him from the sidelines, tremble.

The game begins.

At the beginning, the Clippers on the edge of the cliff burst into a strong fighting spirit, Elton Brand received the ball and forced Yang Di, tilted his body and threw his hand, scored a goal head-on, and took the lead for the Clippers with great momentum.

Yang Di slapped the ball hatefully, he didn't like anyone to score a goal on his head, not even a rebound.

Then, the Clippers made consecutive shots from the outside, and Cassel and Rademanovic hit three-pointers in quick succession.

Yang Di turned around and hit a jumper, and the defensive end fanned Kassel who pounced on the layup, and the Warriors regained momentum, and the Warriors led the Clippers by 2 points 16-14 at the halfway point of the two teams.

This score is on the high side, because the tempo of both sides is on the faster side.

The Warriors' positional offense is a little more disciplined, and under Byron Davis's combing, the Warriors have to do a better job of passing the ball.

Youngdy helped Dunleavy cover without the ball, and Dunleavy hit the Warriors' first three-pointer of the game, and the Warriors led by exactly three points at 30-27 at the end of the first quarter.

The benches began to play each other, with rookies like Monta Ellis and Danny Granger quickly maturing and reducing their turnover rates in front of a group of veteran ballwards from the Clippers.

The more experienced Clippers came off the bench to score non-stop, and as Livingston hit a mid-range jumper, the Clippers overtook the Warriors.

The Clippers requested a timeout.

Montgomery said to the bench: "Guys, you guys did a very good job, the defensive end can still limit the Clippers bench, what we have to do is to strengthen the cutting and cutting cooperation, run, the advantage on the offensive end is speed, we can't give up our strengths to avoid mistakes, be brave!" ”

Monta Ellis was the first to realize, and the player who served as a backup point guard knew that his responsibility was not only to dribble the ball through the half, but also to break through the offense and organize his teammates, whether it was Livingston, Cassell and Mobley, he should be able to break through.

So Ellis, who returned to the court, immediately forced Livingston to win the game, the Clippers didn't expect Ellis to come in so quickly, and the interior defense was not timely, and Ellis made a lightning layup, and the Warriors recovered the point difference.

The scores were scorching, with Youngdy returning to the court ahead of Byron Davis, grabbing a frontcourt rebound and then passing back to Danny Granger from the outside, who hit a three-pointer.

"This is the role of Yang Di!"

Cai Nan, who was the first dogleg, took the microphone and yelled: "Yang Di is too strong, as soon as he returned to the court, the Clippers' interior line was pinned, not only grabbed the frontcourt rebound, but also assisted his teammates to hit three points, which was a major blow to the morale of the Clippers." ”

Yang Di was in particularly good shape, grabbing consecutive frontcourt rebounds in this quarter, and the Warriors quickly opened the score, but fortunately, Radmanovic had a convulsion today and scored three consecutive points to help the Clippers recover the score, otherwise the second quarter might have been spent.

At halftime, the Warriors led the Clippers by six points, 58-52.

The score difference is not large, but the Clippers are always in a state of chasing points, and their morale is exhausted.

It is probably the so-called one drum, then decline, and three exhaustion.

In the third quarter, the reinvigorated Clippers launched a counterattack, Margeti broke through to Tyson Chandler and completed a slam dunk in front of the two-meter 16-meter center, igniting all Clippers fans.

This was probably the time when the Clippers' morale was at its highest.

The Warriors chose to attack in the low post, Yang Di turned around in the low post and Bland scored, the speed was scary, Chris Carman couldn't catch it, and Yang Di hung the basket to complete the heavy dunk under the basket.

An "answer ball" for a dunk!

The fans raised their arms as if they had seen the birth of a new king of the stadium.

Brand and Carman looked at each other, helpless.

But overall, the Clippers had a strong comeback in the quarter, scoring more than the Warriors, 83-81, with the Warriors only leading by two points.

The Clippers have run out of momentum, and the Warriors have continued to attack after the start of the final quarter, and the score difference has widened to nearly ten points, and Yang Di grabbed the 20th rebound of the game, and grabbed nearly half of the rebounds of the Clippers alone.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Clippers 110-101.

Streamers flew and applause thundered to celebrate the Golden State Warriors' entry into the Western Conference semifinals.

Yang Di was named the MVP of the game, grabbed 23 rebounds, scored 18 points, and handed out four blocks to play dominant.
