Chapter 471 Unreasonable

The player with the strongest scoring ability in active service in the league undoubtedly has a place in Kevin Durant. With his unsolvable performance, the Thunder established a 15-point lead at the end of the half.

Xu Tian turned the stage and saw the players walking through the tunnel and going back to the locker room to rest.

Alice's appetite has increased recently, and she is more likely to feel sleepy. Just now, she was discussing the Cavaliers and Pacers series with Xu Tian, ​​and fell asleep again in an instant.

The air conditioner was turned on in the living room. Xu Tian was afraid that Alice would catch a cold, so he woke her up and asked her to go back to the bedroom to rest.

Alice is not suitable for staying up late, so she said good night to Xu Tiandao without any reluctance, and went back to the bedroom first.

Xu Tian went to the corner of the living room and took out a small dumbbell to exercise his upper body strength while watching the game.He has watched Jordan's breakthrough highlights. Every time Jordan breaks into the penalty area, even if he collides with the opponent's center in the air, it is the defensive player who is knocked back, and Jordan can maintain his balance and complete the follow-up layup.This made him realize more clearly how important power is.

Kobe was unable to play, but he was not idle, watching the video of the first game of the series repeatedly, looking for what Xu Tian and George did not do well.He focused on Xu Tian's handling of double-teaming, and realized that Xu Tian was almost perfect, but his teammates did not give enough support, but the playoffs relied on stars, and Xu Tian did not lead the team to win, so all the mistakes can only be made by him bear.

George's lack of ability to attack and handle the ball was clearly revealed in the first game of the series, which made Kobe a little worried.Although he does not have the offensive ability of the peak period, he can still be a great threat as a player who holds the ball or handles the ball, and can help Xu Tian relieve his defensive pressure.George's performance in the first game like this will make the Spurs double-team Xu Tian more resolutely, which is not a good sign.

McGee and the Lakers signed a one-year contract with a minimum salary. After this season, he will seek the next contract. Therefore, he must work harder than others to strive to increase his worth through performance.As the saying goes, people make money and birds die for food. Only money can most stimulate players' self-motivation.

The skyhook kept entering McGee's muscle memory through countless repetitions, allowing him to gradually master this offensive technique.Although it is not as incomprehensible as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, it can also be a means of scoring at certain moments.

After the start of the second half between the Warriors and the Thunder, Xu Tian sat back on the sofa and continued to watch the second half of the game.

The Thunder came to Oklahoma after going through twists and turns, so the fans here love this team deeply. The cheers at home are extremely enthusiastic, and occasionally they can suppress the sound of the commentary through the PA equipment.This is a great encouragement, which can greatly affect the game situation.

The Warriors players played in this environment and endured unexpected pressure. They have never found the state of ease in the regular season, and have been under pressure.At the end of the third quarter, the difference between the two sides expanded to 18 points.

There is a rumor in the market that only Westbrook can guard Durant. This is a joke, but it really happened at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Billy Donovan's tactical system is more inclined to Westbrook holding the ball, so that he has the final say on what offensive tactics to play.Due to the relatively large point difference, Westbrook was eager to kill the suspense of the game directly. He didn't pass it to Durant in a few minutes and chose to break through with the ball.

The Warriors can't limit Durant, but there are ways to limit Westbrook.

The three of Draymond Green, Bogut and Harrison Barnes assisted in the defense, blocked Westbrook abruptly, and successfully relied on the defense to launch a wave of defensive counterattacks.

Curry and Klay Thompson are the top three shooters in the league. Once they are raised, they will be extremely terrifying.Due to Westbrook's restlessness, Curry made consecutive hits, and the 18-point difference was quickly exhausted.

Durant took off his braces a few times out of anger. After all, he missed the friendship and didn't spout the swear words.It's just that the frustration can no longer be suppressed, and it gradually floods into my heart.

The Warriors would not give up this opportunity, contributed consecutive three-point bombing, and tied the score with more than 6 minutes left in the game.During this period, Westbrook made 6 of 0 shots and made two turnovers.

Billy Donovan, feeling the same frustration, called a timeout and orchestrated the plays he had prepared.The core is still Westbrook, and Durant still plays off the ball.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr focused his offense on the Splash Brothers, allowing them to attack wantonly without worrying about the consequences of losing rebounds and being hit back.On the defensive side, Durant is double-teamed and Westbrook, who is not efficient, is used to attack.

The Warriors' defense worked, sinking an over-the-top Westbrook, and then playing a detrimental play.

Billy Donovan stood on the sidelines and made several tactical gestures, all of which were ignored by Westbrook.In this state, the Warriors gradually established a 10-point lead.

Xu Tian didn't expect such a change in the game, and couldn't help frowning. He originally thought that the Thunder would lead 3-1, but he didn't expect to be reversed by the opponent just like the Pacers.

Kevin McHale had the courage to refrigerate Harden, but Billy Donovan didn't dare to let Westbrook off the court to rest. He could only stand on the sidelines blankly, not knowing how to adjust.

Durant's original expression of confidence gradually disappeared, replaced by loss, which also affected his performance on both ends of the offense and defense.

The Thunder is a team that relies on the performance of both players. Once the performance of the two players drops, the entire team will be affected.The offensive and defensive ends were completely lost, and there was a collapse in the final stage.

Xu Tian originally thought that he could see the tactical systems of the two teams, but what he didn't expect to see was the transition from leading to collapsing. He was a bit lacking in interest, but he continued to watch to see what special system the Warriors had.

Draymond Green plays with the ball on offense, while Curry and Klay Thompson run without the ball.

Bogut's arc top screen helped Klay Thompson block a huge offensive space.

Draymond Green passed the ball directly, and Klay Thompson seized the opportunity to shoot and widen the point difference.

Durant finally received a pass from Westbrook, dribbled the ball with his right hand past Draymond Green, hit the penalty area in a straight line, and completed a violent dunk through Bogut's defense!

The Thunder's home court is full of enthusiasm, and there is no sound celebrating Durant's dunk at this time.They didn't expect such a big lead to be ruined in a short time, and they couldn't accept it for a while.

Although the Thunder formed a short-term counterattack, it did not succeed after all. In the end, the Warriors beat the Oklahoma City Thunder with a score of 112-99, bringing the series back to 2-2.

Xu Tian looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already very late, so he didn't watch the post-match interview, just turned off the TV, went back to the bedroom to rest, and recharged his energy for the second game against the Spurs tomorrow night.
