At the beginning of the death entanglement, Curry followed me to slam dunk

Chapter 171 Du Zhe retires from injury
At the beginning of the second quarter, because Maggette was injured and could not play, Du Zhelian was deprived of the few minutes of rest time left in this game.

He must stay on the court to lead the team's second unit.

However, the person marking him in this quarter was replaced by Tony Allen, which allowed Du Zhe to play a little easier.

Although Tony Allen has always been known for his strong defensive ability, facing Du Zhe who surpassed him in all aspects, Tony Allen was completely unable to stop him.

Whether he's shooting in the face from outside the three-point line, or rushing inside to finish the offense with a dunk, Du Zhe can eat Tony Allen alive with his completely overwhelming physical fitness.

As for Tony Allen's defensive skills, in the eyes of Du Zhe, an accomplished defensive master, they are all leftovers and do not pose a threat at all.

However, the Celtics did not have high demands on Tony Allen. He was just a part of the Celtics Tian Ji's horse racing tactics.

After the second quarter, the score between the two pairs reached 41:44, with the Celtics leading by three points and having a small advantage.

杜哲打满整个上半场，他15投7中外加罚球2罚2中，砍下19分3板3断1助。

Maggette's absence has caused his number of shots to increase again.

It's better when Curry and Ellis are on the court at the same time. The two of them can help share the offensive pressure to some extent.

In the first half of the second quarter, when he led the team's bench lineup, the Warriors' on-court tactics basically turned into one person doing four things, all directed at Du Zhe.

Fortunately, Du Zhe's efficiency was pretty good, which kept the Warriors from collapsing.

But despite this, the Warriors still fell behind in two consecutive quarters. If they continue like this, although they will not be defeated, they will probably only die slowly.

Of course, this is just other people's thoughts. For Du Zhe, he still has a few hole cards in his hand that he has not used.

At least until the third quarter, he can still use his stealer gloves, and it's hard to say who will win by then.

But things didn't develop as smoothly as he imagined.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Du Zhe received a pass from his teammate, threw away Ray Allen, and prepared to cut into the basket and dunk.

Everything went smoothly during the take-off and dunk, but an accident happened when he landed.

When he landed, his foot accidentally stepped on the foot of Perkins under the basket.

If it were normal times, Du Zhe could completely avoid it.

But after days of high-intensity competition, his body was exhausted to the extreme, and his body's reaction speed was not as fast as before.

"Wow!!"

Du Zhe's ankle hurt and he couldn't help shouting.

Then his 120 kilogram body fell heavily to the ground.

Almost at the same time, Nelson and several players on the Warriors' bench immediately bounced up.

"Oops! Du Zhe won't be injured!" This was the common thought of everyone on the Warriors at this moment.

Du Zhe is the pillar of strength and the anchor of the Warriors. If there are three advantages and two disadvantages, they don't have to play in the finals.

Lying on the ground, Du Zhe hugged his ankle, his face full of pain.

He had been mentally prepared for the arrival of this day.

If the earthen pot is always broken, the general will inevitably die before the battle. As a professional player, it is bound to happen sooner or later.

It's just that he didn't expect that his first injury would come at such an untimely time.

Injured in the finals, this is really killing people.

Du Zhe tried to stand up, but the sharp pain in his right foot was so piercing that he had to give up the idea.

Several Warriors players on the court rushed over and helped Du Zhe off the court.

The Warriors fans saw this scene, and their hearts were half cold.

Seeing Du Zhe being helped off the field, he knew that his injury must be serious.

If he misses several games because of this, it can be said that the Warriors will be directly sentenced to death.

The Chinese fans in front of the screen felt more sad in their hearts.

Dayao, as the former No. 1 basketball player in China, was reimbursed and has not recovered yet.

Finally, another Du Zhe emerged, but unfortunately he was injured again in the finals.

Is the luck of Chinese basketball so bad?

Almost all Hua Guo fans who saw this scene came up with this idea unwillingly.

Just as Huaguo and Warriors fans fell into despair, a flash of joy flashed in the hearts of Celtics fans.

Although they may not have shown it on the surface, they were still very happy to see Du Zhe leave the field.

After all, this means that the probability of the team winning the championship will be greatly increased. Although the Celtics rank first in the league in the number of championships, the more championships, the better.

After Du Zhe was helped off the field, he was quickly sent back to the locker room, and the medical staff who had been on standby also hurried over to perform preliminary treatment on his injury.

Soon someone brought an ice pack and applied ice to Du Zhe's ankle.

The waves of coldness hit him, which relieved Du Zhe's pain a lot and also made his mind clearer.

Although it is currently impossible to determine the extent of his injury, judging from the current situation, he may not be able to play in this and the next game.

This is not what Du Zhe wants to see. After all, without him, it is impossible for the Warriors to compete against the mighty Celtics.

Even if he can make a comeback in Game 5, the Warriors will most likely fall behind 1:3 at that time, and it will be difficult to come back.

When he thought of this, Du Zhe couldn't help but feel depressed. After all, the championship was right in front of him, so it would be a pity to let it go.

The medical staff on the side worked hard for a long time, fixed Du Zhe's injured leg, then stood up and said: "Du, you can't play again in this game. We have to wait for an MRI after the game to discuss the specific situation."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then, doctor!" Du Zhe suddenly thought of something.

However, his calm attitude impressed several team doctors.

If this situation were to happen to other players, it would be perfectly normal for them to be frustrated, desperate, or just throwing things around.

But Du Zhe was still unhurried, and he didn't see any emotional fluctuations at all. This kind of mentality is enough for many NBA players to learn for a lifetime.

What's even more frightening is that this young man is only in his early 20s. How can he have such a mature state of mind?
Several medical staff couldn't figure it out.

After such a toss, ten minutes passed quickly, and the third quarter of the game was about to end.

However, the situation on the field was no longer so eye-catching at this time. After Du Zhe left the field, the Celtics played steadily and beat the Warriors by 8 points in a single quarter.

The current score on the court is 72:61, and the Celtics already have an [-]-point lead.

In the eyes of the vast majority of fans, this victory is already in the pocket of the Celtics.

More fans focused on the discussion about Du Zhe's injury.
