Super Role Player

After the last quarter, the 76ers won the victory steadily, winning two consecutive games at home and leading 2:0.

After scoring 75 points in the first game, Anxi's statistics continued to explode in the second game. He scored 54 points in the game, as well as 7 rebounds and 9 assists, completely dominating the basketball court.

The obvious contrast is Stephen Curry.

In the first half, Stephen Curry faced Ismael Smith's defense. The pressure was not very high, so his shooting percentage was very high. He made 5 three-pointers in the half and scored 26 points. However, in the second half, he faced Anxi's defensive switch. , Stephen Curry's shooting percentage dropped sharply, making only 1 of 6 three-pointers in the second half, and only scored 7 points in the second half.

The whole game had 33 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. Stephen Curry's statistics were still good. However, in the third and fourth quarters when the Warriors collapsed, Stephen Curry only scored 7 points and 2 assists, and his performance was completely different. The Warriors' star player.

In this regard, commentator Charles Barkley said: "This is the gap between the Warriors and the 76ers. Anxi directly defeated Stephen Curry one-on-one. In the first half, Stephen Curry, who was efficient, had no ability to resist in front of Anxi. The Warriors Now it’s time for a second person to step up.”

The Warriors' second man should be Klay Thompson, but in this game, Klay Thompson's performance was even worse. He made 4 of 13 shots from the field and only scored 10 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist. On defense, Klay Thompson was sleepwalking throughout the game.

Draymond Green played well as a dual-core player on the outside, but no matter how good Draymond Green played, it was only 20 points and a defensive contribution, which was still not enough to withstand the firepower of Anxi alone.

After losing again in the second game, the major media in North America were no longer optimistic about the Warriors.

USA Today's report: "The Warriors are still too young. They lack experience. The outside combination of Stephen Curriga and Klay Thompson cannot stop Anxi's impact alone."

ESPN also said: "The 76ers are close to winning this championship. Anxi will complete his fourth consecutive championship and will also win his third consecutive FMVP. With such a start to his career, he will surpass Michael Jordan in the future. It’s not impossible anymore.”

Sports Illustrated interpreted the first two games of the finals from another angle: "Anxi averaged 64.5 points in the first two games. Compared with last year's finals, Anxi is stronger. Such explosive data has made Anxi stand behind Michael Before Jordan, he was only 26 years old and still had several years to reach his peak. It was not only possible to surpass Jordan, it was even inevitable."

The three major media outlets are crazy about the 76ers, but the 76ers' closed training before the game avoids such external disturbances.

For the third game in Oakland, the 76ers needed to play away from home. Brett Brown decided to stay the same in response to changes. This approach was right. The easy wins in the first two games made it unnecessary for the 76ers to make any changes.

On the Warriors' side, Steve Kerr was once again in trouble. He suffered a disastrous defeat in the first game and also lost a lot in the second game. Obviously, all the policies and strategies of the first two games were going to be overturned, but Steve Kerr didn't know what to do. How to make adjustments.

As a rookie coach, Steve Kerr's rookie coaching season before the Finals was perfect. He had the best regular season record in the Western Conference, defeated strong opponents in the playoffs, and made it all the way to the Finals. It can be said that he just missed winning the NBA Finals. In the finals, you can have a perfect rookie coaching season.

But Steve Kerr, who had never suffered many setbacks, suddenly encountered a big obstacle. Anxi stood in front of the Warriors and him, and it seemed that there was no way to solve it...

In the third game, Steve Kerr decided to maintain the same tactical strategy as in the second game and increased the flanking defense against Anxi. Obviously, although the first two games ended in defeat, Steve Kerr still did not want to Making too many changes because he really didn't have much else to do,

We can only use the tactics and strategies of the first two games and try again.

Oracle Arena in Oakland. Although they lost miserably in the first two games, Warriors fans still packed the Oracle Arena to a full capacity.

At the beginning of the game, Anxi was frantically suppressed by the Warriors. During regular time, he would always encounter double-team defense from his opponents. At some special moments, the Warriors even used three-person double-teams. Anxi sent out 5 assists in the first quarter. , the 76ers still stabilized the situation.

After the first quarter, the 76ers led the Warriors by 2 points, 26:24.

The Warriors started better and better, but unfortunately, the further they played, the less able they were to solve Anxi's problem.

In the second quarter, the 76ers' style of play changed, and Anxi began to frequently get the ball in the high post.

Last season, Anxi's high-post singles were his most threatening offensive skills. After a season, Anxi has added countless new offensive skills, but his high-post singles are still his most threatening offensive skills.

In the high post position, Anxi can play countless offensive methods. He can fade away and step back. He can turn around and break through, make pull-up jumpers, and even pass the ball... In short, in this position, Anxi can There are countless possibilities.

In the second quarter, Anxi frequently played high-posts, and the Warriors tried their best to contain them, but their defensive formation collapsed in the second quarter.

There is no way, Anxi's singles are too strong in this position, and he can create too many opportunities. Even passing the ball can lead to fatal scoring opportunities.

After the second quarter, the 76ers expanded their lead.

They continued to play like this in the second half, and the point difference continued to expand. The Warriors could not withstand the impact of Anxi alone.

As a result, the Warriors collapsed again in the second half. In the last 5 minutes of the third quarter, the 76ers shot 16:6 and another wave ended the game.

Anxi didn't play at all in the fourth quarter. After three consecutive high-intensity games, Brett Brown also wanted Anxi to rest more.

The 76ers have won 15 consecutive games and are only one game away from winning the championship.

As long as they win the next finals, the 76ers will set a record - a record of undefeated playoff victories. Brett Brown values ​​this record very much. He hopes to let Anxi rest well so that he can continue to win in the fourth game. , to create this record.

In the end, the 76ers won another away game.

After three big wins, the 76ers had an absolute advantage, 3:0! Got the match point!

It can be said that there is no suspense in the finals, only the question of whether the 76ers will win the game within a few games.

In the finals, no team can come back from being behind 0:3, not to mention that in the past three games, the Warriors have had no chance in every defeat. The gap between the two teams is too big. Maybe... the Warriors must It's all over the place...
