On April 2, the award for the best sixth man was also released, which is the second honor of this season.

Curry has spent a season and has finally finished his hard work. He has taken over the guns of his predecessors and became the third player in the Warriors to win this honor.

Among the 17 media people participating in the voting, three chose Curry in the first choice. In the end, Curry also beat the Mavericks' Jason Terry with a total of 613 points, Sadies Young of the 76ers and Glen Davis of the Celtics won the honor.

Some people believe that the competition for the best sixth man this year is lacking in goods and there are no good players. Previous strong competitors such as super scorers Crawford and Ginobili either performed poorly or had become the starter, which led to the general being drawn from the slapstick.

But no matter what, Curry became the sixth man and gained his efforts for the season.

"I'm really happy for him," said Old Nelson. "It's definitely what he deserves. Only I know what he has given. He's a great guy, Stephen Curry, I'm talking about him, and from my experience, this kid will eventually achieve extraordinary achievements in the future."

"This is indeed a recognition of his role for the team in recent years," Chamberlain attended Curry's awards conference and said at the meeting. "Stephen has the strength to start, he is already one of the best scorers in the league. I think any defender will not do much better than him at his age. Now he has rarely seen opponents in his position, but for the team's tactical needs, he has worked diligently and safely as a substitute. This kind of self-sacrifice is rare."

Curry played all 8 regular season games this season, including 15 starts, averaging 17.6 points, 67 assists, and B4 rebounds. His shooting percentage this season reached 6 three-point shooting percentage of 43.0, all of which were the highest in his career.

This season, Curry's efficiency value is 19.2, which reaches the critical value of All-Star players, and is also the highest among all substitutes in the league.

In addition, Curry has played double-double twice this season, scoring double-digit points in 6 games, and has scored more than 2 points in at least 14 games.

It is amazing that Curry has grown very rapidly in the past two seasons. When he first entered the league, he was worried that he could not adapt to the NHAR competitive strength due to physical reasons. However, now, he has not only adapted to the NHAR intensity, but also created higher intensity for opponents in the same position.

At the press conference, Curry talked about his college career and when he joined the Davidson College school team, his head coach even asserted that he couldn't play the NHA and talked about the 26th draft. Chamberlain agreed with him: "Go to the NHA and then sweep the NHA and let those guys say you can't play the NHAR spoon go and go and go and go and let those guys say you can't play the NHAR spoon."

What really made Curry praised was his selflessness. Popovich said of him: "He is the kind of player that the head coach wants especially. He is very strong and is fully qualified to start. But when he sees that the team has veterans who are also suitable for starting, he will not make the head coach embarrassed. He will take the initiative to propose to play as a substitute, and then do his best every minute of the game and dedicate his value. This is the most amazing thing."

Finally, Curry said: "I want to give this trophy to my fans. What really supports me in the fight is the belief my fans have given me. Every time I replace the game, I can hear the fans cheering. This is for them. If I really win this award, the night I win the award, I might leave the trophy on the scoreboard and let the fans know that it is for them. I want to express my gratitude to them."

In addition, Curry became the first player in NHA history to hold a press conference to receive the award at a away conference since the Best Sixth Man Awards. The Warriors set the awards to the conference room of the hotel where they stayed.

On the second day after Curry received the award, they were going to participate in the fourth playoffs.

Paul's mood looked terrible during the game, he was like a tired camel, and this game would be the last straw that broke him.

During the warm-up match, Paul did not play. He sat on the bench and looked at his teammates who were warming up on the court with some depression.

Although he failed to win the throne of assisting king this season, he is recognized as the well-deserved first point guard. However, in this year, superstars gather together and bosses join forces, and there is no future for fighting alone.

Paul finally felt the loneliness and despair of the young emperor James in the finals last season. Of course, his feelings were particularly clear, because at least the young emperor had Mo Williams, Valejo, O'Neal, Jamison and others to help him, and what about him? The best helper was David West, who also missed the playoffs due to injury.

The fans also noticed Paul's gaze. The fans who finally found their conscience raised the DIYR card in their hands, which read: Chris, this is not your fault, you have done it to the extreme here. New Orleans fans will always thank you for next season. Queen Bee will fly and find your teammates.

After the warm-up match, the national flag began to be raised. Paul stood at the front of the queue, looking at the rising national flag, and his mouth sang the national anthem silently, and blood began to boil.

This is my territory, I am the queen bee, maybe I will lose in the end, but I will not surrender to the Warriors, fight to the death, Paul thought silently in his heart, when the game started, the moment he stepped onto the court, he was so murderous intent that he was soaring to the sky when the game began

The Hornets' starting lineup is: Okafor, Asik, Peja, Paul, and Belineri.

The Warriors' starting lineup is: Chamberlain, Ibaka, Jackson, West, and Carter.

In the live broadcast room of TNT, Barkley said with emotion: "The gap between these two teams is all-round, not only the strength of the players, but also the ability of the head coach. Look, the Warriors have never changed the starting lineup in the playoffs, and the Hornets have changed the starting lineup three times in four games. What does this mean? It means they can't find a suitable starting lineup at all."

The referee blew the whistle, but the Warriors still took the ball. West passed the ball Chamberlain and started the attack from the inside.

Both teams put defense first, but the game is still exciting.

After the opening, Chamberlain entered the pace very quickly. After getting the ball at the critical position at the basket, he played his own singles, then quickly turned around and jumped to shoot, and won the first ball of the opening game.

On the Hornets, Paul seemed to be playing hard, but he changed his tactics, not passing the ball to his teammates, but coming to Shanyu by himself.

Barkley said: "This is Chris making a silent accusation. Anyway, this is the last game. He wants to do it himself because they are all losing. Why not let him score? Hornets, Hornets, Hornets."

However, Paul may be a little anxious. He failed to hit three consecutive shots. After nearly 4 minutes of this quarter, he scored for the first time in the middle distance.

After making this mid-range shot, Paul seemed to click the shooting button all at once, and his touch immediately became hot. After that, he hit it one after another, and it was uncontrollable.

Not only did he shoot, Paul also kept passing the ball to organize his teammates. With 6 minutes and 15 seconds left in this quarter, he assisted Okafor in front of Chamberlain and dunked. Then he stealed again, and Carter had to make a foul. After he came back, he immediately assisted Peja to score a jump shot from a close range.

After Paul made a backhand layup, the Hornets made a strong start and led 19.

The Warriors were stunned by Paul. West and Carter adapted to Paul's style of playing in the team. When he suddenly began to take action on his own, he was not well prepared and scored repeatedly.

Under Paul's leadership, the Hornets not only attacked with all their strength, but also performed well on the defensive end. Okafor blocked Jackson's layup, and Chamberlain's pass was intercepted by Paul. They were suppressed by the Hornets, resulting in a defeat in the first quarter.

After the first quarter, the Warriors fell behind B points by 1422.

Old Nelson did not yell. He is now full of confidence, believing that the players can adjust their form and regain control of the rhythm of the game.

Sure enough, Chamberlain began to exert force at the beginning of the second quarter. He scored points with free throws and free throws. Curry came on as the best sixth man. As the sixth man, he made a three-pointer as soon as he appeared. The Warriors scored 6 points in a row. Then Chamberlain blocked Paul's layup. The Warriors counterattacked and Curry made a dunk with West, so the Warriors played a B0 offensive climax and equalized the score with 222.

After that, the Warriors began to widen the gap. With 6 minutes and 43 seconds left in the quarter, West launched a fast break. The Hornets were unable to defend well and were in a one-on-three dilemma in the frontcourt. West missed a layup, but he grabbed the offensive rebound and directly made up the ball in the air with one hand.

Then, the Hornets' house was raining all night. After Ariza jumped, she fell to the ground with her calf and fell to the ground. Blair opposite was startled and thought he was a fake fall, so she opened her arms and shouted to the referee: "I didn't touch him. I'm still 180 feet away from him."

The referee also thought that Ariza was a fake fall, but when he stepped forward, he saw that Ariza had a painful face and had cramps in his calf.

In this way, the Hornets, which were already short of soldiers, lost one general.

After the game, Paul talked about this scene and smiled bitterly: "At that time, I learned that Ariza had a cramp in her calf and was likely to miss this game. My heart was broken. I don't understand what I did wrong. God actually punished me like this."

While Ariza was away, the Warriors launched a fierce attack.

Although Ariza has average offensive ability, his defense is worthy of praise. With him, at least the Hornets' wings are as stable as Mount Tai.

In this way, Ariza had a chance to play, Jamison, who appeared on the court, let his offensive firepower be released, and he scored consecutive jump shots. Halfway through the quarter, the Warriors led by 9 points with 372B.

Paul seemed to suddenly wake up. Seeing his teammates in despair, he called for a timeout and then started yelling off the court: "Do you want to give you a mirror? Look at how you look now, are we already surrounded by zombies? Are we dead? All of them cheer me up, and the game is still going on. This is our home brothers, this is our team, where we strive, don't do this, don't let those who love us suffer."

"I will charge myself later. If you have men in it, then follow me and charge with me."

Paul said that he would do it, and then he began to show his power on the court. There were 6 minutes and 3 seconds left in the quarter. He started to accelerate before he passed the midfield and quickly broke through to the basket. Chamberlain at the basket had only time to pull him, but failed to stop him. Paul jumped up and ended the attack with a dunk.

This was Paul's first dunk in this playoffs, and the sudden move was a dunk in front of Chamberlain.

Three seconds later, Paul turned backwards from outside the three-point line and quickly cut into the basket again. He scored with a single hand ball and hit Jamison, and the score also caused the latter's foul.

After two consecutive "three-pointers", the Hornets chased 6 points in a row, and Peja also used his peak shooting skills with Paul's motivation. He made consecutive moves from the outside in the cold storage, and made two three-pointers in this quarter. He scored the last three-pointer in the quarter. The Hornets ended the first half incredibly with 464.
