NBA: Starting with James Harden

The Spurs were in a critical moment. At the critical moment, Parker stood up and scored by breaking through!!

Compared with Ginobili and Duncan, Parker did not play well in the previous games, and seemed to be affected by injuries!

But today he stood up.

Driven by Parker, Duncan and Ginobili regained their touch one after another, and the Spurs gradually narrowed the gap.

After three quarters, the score was 70 to 66, and the Mavericks had a certain advantage!!

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Mavericks fell into a scoring drought. Li Zhen was double-teamed and passed the ball to Nowitzki. Nowitzki's consecutive shots failed to hit, and the Spurs seized the opportunity to score!!

After Li Zhen finally got three free throws, Li Zhen began to miss frequently again!!

Under the Spurs' iron bucket formation, not only Li Zhen, but also Terry, Nowitzki and others had a bad touch!!

After playing for nearly 8 minutes, the Mavericks only scored 6 points.

Fortunately, the Spurs defended the Mavericks, and the Mavericks also defended the Spurs. The Spurs didn't have many offensive methods!!

The two sides entered a white-hot stage!!

With 1 minute and 22 seconds left in the game, Ginobili made another three-pointer, helping the Spurs lead 84 to 81.

Nowitzki's jump shot at the critical moment was interfered by Duncan. After Duncan got the rebound, he passed it to Parker, who made a layup!!

The Spurs led by 5 points.

Terry's subsequent three-pointer missed, and the Mavericks had no timeouts and had no choice but to foul!!

Li Zhen made a three-pointer with 10 seconds left in the game, but it was too late!!

The score of this game finally stayed at 84 to 89!

The Spurs won in Game 3, and the big score was rewritten to 1 to 2.

The Mavericks want to sweep?

Not that easy!!

Data of both sides: For the Spurs, Parker scored 24 points and 8 assists, Duncan scored 28 points, Ginobili scored 18 points, and Hill scored 12 points!!

For the Mavericks, Nowitzki scored 31 points and 11 rebounds, Jason Terry scored 17 points, Li Zhen scored 22 points and 8 assists, and Jason Kidd scored 7 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists.

Today, Nowitzki and Li Zhen's shooting percentages were low, both of them only had a shooting percentage of about 40%............

After the game, Li Zhen kept breathing heavily and wiping his sweat!

This was the first time he lost in the playoffs!

This feeling was not pleasant!!

Li Zhen, who had not felt any pressure from the playoffs, now felt a kind of oppression!

There was no relaxed atmosphere in the Mavericks, and everyone's face was solemn. Did they lose a lot in this game?

Not much, just a hair's breadth.

Li Zhen's key ball ability was not bad, but the opponent's key ball ability was not bad either, and they had the last laugh in the end.

Compared to the deathly silence on the Mavericks side, the Spurs finally laughed, and they all celebrated their victory excitedly.

It was not easy for them to win this game!!

This released the pressure on them who had been losing.

To be honest, Li Zhen was also in a low mood.

"Let's go, we have to go back." Nowitzki patted Li Zhen on the shoulder and advised:"Cheer up, losing a playoff game is nothing, just win the next one."

"If it were me, I would go back and take a comfortable bath, then lie on the big bed and get as much sleep as possible, rest my body, and prepare for the next game. This is a series, and losing is only a small part of it...."

Nowitzki was talking to Li Zhen in a rather long-winded way.

It was obvious that he was trying to comfort Li Zhen.

"Dirk, how does it feel to lose the finals?"Li Zhen suddenly looked up at Nowitzki and asked.

If losing a playoff game is so painful, then losing the finals must be heartbreaking.

Hearing Li Zhen's question, Nowitzki was stunned.

It hurts, Old Li!

How does it feel to lose the finals ?....

Nowitzki patted Li Zhen on the back of his head and said,"You'll know once you've experienced it yourself. It will be a time of growth."

Nowitzki's face was calm, but Li Zhen could see that losing the finals had become a regret in his heart.

"I don't want to experience that moment myself!" Li Zhen said firmly

"No one wants to lose, Li, so we have to try our best in every game. After losing, we have to learn how to grow."Nowitzki said in a low voice.

Growth!

Li Zhen followed Nowitzki back to the locker room thoughtfully.

"Tonight's game will be a blow to Li Zhen. This is the first time he has lost a playoff game in his career. I hope he will not be overwhelmed by the pressure and continue to perform as before."

"It’s not shameful to lose to GDP. The Spurs are hard to beat at home. Come on Li Zhen!"

"The entire team is responsible for today's loss. Everyone's touch was not good, and Carlisle used up all the timeouts too early."

"The score is 2-1. The next game is at the Spurs' home court. It is expected to be even more exciting. G4 is very important for both teams!"

Domestic fans did not feel much of a blow to Li Zhen's first playoff defeat. Instead, they were mostly encouraging.

Most of them still hope to see Li Zhen's success in the playoffs.

Li Zhen gave many of them a reason to continue watching the playoffs.

"After winning Game 3, the Spurs can breathe a sigh of relief. Their efforts saved them from the brink. The next game will be played here. By then, the Mavericks will probably be more prepared to challenge them. Let's wait and see the next game!" Kenny Smith said. This is the excitement of the playoffs.

This is a series, and the losing side has enough time to adjust and change the situation..........

After returning to the hotel, Li Zhen received a video call from Reba.

Reba first comforted Li Zhen, and then told Li Zhen that because of the increase in attention, she received more and more magazine shoots. Although it is not a first-rate magazine, she often appears on the cover of second- and third-rate magazines.

In addition to fashion magazines, Reba also received a role in a TV series.

《The heroine of"Anarhan"!

This is a modern folk drama, which is consistent with her identity and appearance.

Before going to college, Reba had basically never acted in a play. She was originally just a dancer, so she was very excited to receive this role.

Reba's comfort and enlightenment also made Li Zhen temporarily forget about the loss tonight.
