Live Bar, June 2-today’s NBA Finals, Nuggets beat the Heat 104-93 at home, leading the series 1-0. After the game, Gordon was interviewed by the reporter.
The reporter asked, “you have completed the defensive mission against Downs, Durant, James and Butler in this playoff. People may talk about it for 50 years. Will you review it?”
Gordon replied, “No, not yet. When I was 79 or 90 years old, I would definitely sit in a rocking chair and talk to my children about the moment when I used to defend these guys. This is only part of the competition. I am doing what the team needs me to do. As I said, defense is the effort of the whole team. A complete defense requires five people.”
In this battle, Gordon scored 7 in 10, 0 in 1 in 3, 2 in 2 in free throws, and got 16 points, 6 plates, 1 in 1 in 1.
