Chapter 335 Double Twenty
As the on-duty referee Joe Crawford blew his whistle, the players of the two teams returned to the court to prepare for the final quarter of the game.In the Oklahoma City Thunder team, the two core players of the team, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, can be seen impressively.
"I didn't expect Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook to remain on the court without being replaced for a rest." OJ Mayo said to the promises around him.
"It's actually expected." Xu Nuo shook his head slightly and said, "Now that the game has come to the last quarter, and the Oklahoma City Thunder is still nine points behind us, if I were Coach Scott Brooks , I will definitely send Kevin Durant and the two of them on the field. Because if we don’t do this, we will quickly expand the point difference in a short period of time and completely seal the victory!”
OJ Mayo nodded, "But if Kevin Durant and the others don't get rest, there will definitely be problems with their physical strength!" OJ Mayo continued.
"We can definitely attack and defend against this point." Xu Nuo said with a slight smile.
The referee Joe Crawford blew his whistle again, promising to take the ball from small forward Rudy Fernandez and start organizing the team's offense.
In fact, it was precisely because Coach Larry Brown left the promise on the court that Coach Scott Brooks dared not replace Russell Westbrook.As a backup point guard, Derek Fisher has rich experience in the game, but his defense is really poor, and there are no other point guards in the team who are worthy of great positions. Coach Scott Brooks has to Rely more on Russell Westbrook to deal with commitments.
——Faced with the promise of scoring [-] points and [-] assists in just the first three quarters, no one dared to relax their vigilance.
Inside power forward Tyler Hansbrough barely got into position with his back against Serge Ibaka near the edge of the lane, reached out to Xu for the ball, and Xu immediately passed it over.At the same time, Rudy Fernandez, who was originally outside the three-point line at the bottom corner, and OJ Mayo, who was outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle, ran a crossover with each other, and OJ Mayo came outside the three-point line at the bottom line .Thabo Sefolosha wanted to go after OJ Mayo, but was blocked by Rudy Fernandez, Taylor Hansbrough in the middle position immediately passed the ball to OJ Mayo who was already in the open .
"Fix it!" point guard Russell Westbrook yelled, pointing at OJ Mayo.
However, Kevin Durant had just started to defend against OJ Mayo. OJ Mayo suddenly flicked his arm, and the ball immediately spanned the entire court, and arrived at Xu Nuo who was on the other side of the court with great accuracy!
At this time, Xu Nuo was also in the open space, and there was no Oklahoma City Thunder player defending two meters away.Russell Westbrook, who was in charge of marking Xu Nuo, rushed towards Xu Nuo in a hurry, but Xu Nuo, who was standing outside the three-point line, had already raised the ball in his hand high.
"Oops! You can't let this kid shoot a three-pointer!" Russell Westbrook said in his heart.
Seeing that Russell Westbrook was already rushing towards him, Xu Nuo used a shooting fake to feint, after shaking Russell Westbrook away, he dribbled a step sideways, and made another long-range shot!Since Xu Nuo stepped on the three-point line with both feet when shooting, the ball can only be counted as two points. At 81:70, the visiting Indiana Pacers had a double-digit lead over the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Russell Westbrook, who was beside Xu Nuo, looked at Xu Nuo's shot and shook his head helplessly.
"You like to jump too much!" Xu Nuo turned around and said to Russell Westbrook with a smile, "Every time you see your opponent is going to shoot, you always like to jump up too early to block the opponent."
"I know," Russell Westbrook's mouth moved slightly, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, "Thank you for your words, but I think I should be very clear about how I should defend."
Xu Nuo smiled, didn't say anything, went straight back to the Indiana Pacers' half court, bent down and prepared to defend.
As the core player of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Kevin Durant is naturally the team's arrow on the offensive end, not to mention that the current lineup of the Oklahoma City Thunder on the field is mainly substitute players. The team can only rely on Kevin Durant on the offensive end.Kevin Durant takes the ball off Russell Westbrook and faces Rudy Fernandez with it.
"Although Rudy has repeatedly performed amazingly on the offensive end, it is still a bit difficult for him to defend Kevin Durant." Xu Nuo thought to himself.
The ensuing defense validated Promise's point, as Kevin Durant swayed Rudy Fernandez away with a simple drive fake, driving for a layup and causing Indiana Pacers backup center Ronnie Defensive foul by Turiaf.The Oklahoma City Thunder got within [-] points after Kevin Durant made a solid extra free throw.
"As expected..." Xu Nuo shook his head and sighed.
On the next play, Promise used power forward Tyler Hansbrough's pick-and-roll screen to break away from Russell Westbrook's defense and enter the Oklahoma City Thunder's defense, followed by an assist for Rudy Fernandez. A two-handed dunk helped Rudy Fernandez return a kick from Kevin Durant.
"No. 16 assists!" Live commentator Jeff Van Gundy sighed.
Indeed, after assisting Rudy Fernandez for a dunk, Xu Nuo has already got his No. 16 assists in this game and got the "Double Sixteen" data.
In the current Indiana Pacers team on the court, only one player is promised to be a starter, and the offense of the two inside players Tyler Hansbrough and Ronnie Turiaf cannot be regarded as superior. Under such circumstances, the Indiana Pacers rely more on the promised passing organization on the offensive end.After more than three minutes in the fourth quarter, Xu Nuo had already scored as many as [-] assists!
"Sixteen points, plus [-] assists! This is the data Xu promised at this time!" The live commentator Jeff Van Gundy said loudly, "You must know that there are still more than eight minutes before the end of the game. Promising to get the double [-] data is as easy as pie!"
At this time, the buzzer sounded in the Chesapeake Energy Arena, and the Indiana Pacers began to make substitution adjustments. The team's top scorer Danny Granger and the main center Roy Hibbert returned to the court at the same time .After Danny Granger returned to the court, he caused far more damage to Kevin Durant's impact than Rudy Fernandez.In terms of personal data, Kevin Durant scored 23 points, but at this time Danny Granger had already scored 29 points, overwhelming Kevin Durant in terms of data.
Danny Granger first patted Xu Nuo on the shoulder after he entered the field.
"You played really well!" Danny Granger said to Xu Nuo with a smile.
Xu Nuo smiled slightly, but didn't say anything.However, in the following games, Xu Nuo quickly assisted Danny Granger in succession, and helped Danny Granger to continuously attack Kevin Durant's defense while getting No.20 assists , And helped the team continue to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder by nearly ten points.
Seeing the time go by, there is not much time left in the game, but his team is still nearly ten points behind the opponent, Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant can't help but see fire in his eyes.Kevin Durant continued to use his personal ability to single out his opponents on the offensive end, made consecutive fouls, and stood at the free throw line and made four consecutive free throws. At 82:91, with four minutes and 33 seconds left in the game, Kevin Durant put the Oklahoma City Thunder within ten points.
Even so, it is even more difficult for the Oklahoma City Thunder to win this game.
To catch up, coach Scott Brooks sent in sixth man James Harden, while Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook remained on the court. The "Three Young Thunder" gathered on the court and led the team to catch up with the score.
"It seems that Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook will play the full [-] minutes of the fourth quarter." Xu Nuo thought in his heart.
At this time, Danny Granger missed a mid-range shot, and Xu Nuo immediately started, accelerated, and made a tip-up over the heads of many players from the two teams under the basket.With [-] points and [-] assists, Xu Nuo is only one step away from the double [-] data!
And the other Indiana Pacers players on the court naturally knew Xu Nuo's data at this time in their hearts, and they all deliberately handed the ball to Xu Nuo.After receiving a return pass from power forward David West, Xu Nuo made a long three-pointer from the outside and scored his No.20 point in the game!
21 points!Plus twenty assists!
Double [-] data!
At the same time, after promising to hit this long three-pointer from the outside, the Indiana Pacers, who have already led the Oklahoma City Thunder by 1 points, have completely sealed the victory.After that, Kevin Durant and other "Three Young Thunder" continued to play for less than 28 minute before being replaced by coach Scott Brooks.Although Kevin Durant scored [-] points and seven rebounds in the game, it failed to bring the team a victory.
When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, the away Indiana Pacers defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder at home with a score of 102:93, tying the finals series to 1: 1 flat.In this game, the team's top scorer Danny Granger scored 37 points, and as the team's main point guard, Xu Nuo scored 22 points and 21 assists in the "double twenty" data. Undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the team's victory!
