Chapter 642 The Second Battle in the West
The Thunder didn't allow Lamb, who has a better offense, to start with Dewey, the second junior, because of the team's perimeter defense.Lamb's defense is relatively poor, and he needs the ball, and Dewey's second junior has already not enough possession of the ball.
Even Harden could only play as the sixth man back then, because there is only one basketball after all.
The game was broadcast live on CCTV5, and the commentators were Yang Jian and Yang Yi.
Ibaka and the White Bears prepare for a jump ball near the middle circle, and the game is about to start.
The atmosphere at the scene was very good. This game was a battle of focus, and many people followed it. On the Internet alone, there were a large number of fans watching the live broadcast, and some even watched the text live broadcast.
At the beginning of the jump ball, the White Bears jumped almost every time, 18 cards easily allocated the ball to Durant, and the Thunder won the first wave of offensive balls.
Yang Jian laughed and said, "Pau Gasol didn't jump the ball at all!"
Yang Yi is also happy: "You can't blame him. He knows that even if he shows his strength, he can't jump over Ibaka. Ibaka can jump from the free throw line and dunk. You are a European, how can you jump?" Beat him!"
Westbrook slowly dribbles over.
Durant cut out to catch the ball and Westbrook scored.
Durant VS the old prince!
Durant holds the ball, crossovers in a row, uses a large pull to pull the ball, and makes a jump shot with a sudden stop-almost hit!
When Durant first entered the league, he was very thin. At that time, it was said that he could not do a single 84kg bench press during the physical test.At that time, his offense mainly relied on jump shots after the screen. He was afraid of confrontation while holding the ball, and he was afraid that his opponent would lock him down.In the past two years, he has developed a continuous crossover with his crotch in advance, which can use his big strides to throw off opponents and score jump shots.
A group of big men fought hand-to-hand under the basket, and the Black Bear protected the backcourt rebound and handed it over to Conley to advance.
The Grizzlies attacked here, the Black Bears asked for the ball under the basket, and Conley scored the ball.
It was center Perkins who defended the Thunder against the Black Bears.
Perkins is less than 210cm tall, but has black flesh, and the black bear really looks like Twins.
Twins was fighting in the low position, and the two balls of black meat "slapped" sounded, making the photographers at the bottom line feel a little dizzy.
It's not easy for the Black Bear to beat Perkins.Perkins is a well-known meat shield in the league, standard floor flow, almost no offense, relying on defense.
It is rare for a black bear to squeeze into a low position, turn around halfway and then throw back - also not!
Westbrook flew to protect the backcourt rebound, and directly pushed back!
Westbrook suffered a serious injury in the first round of the playoffs last season, but after an offseason, he seemed to be fine, still flying and escaping, feeling that the injury made him evolve instead?
God knows what kind of physiological structure he is. It is estimated that those famous surgeons are very eager to dissect him and study it...
Westbrook hit the frontcourt one-stop, pushed Conley away, and forced a layup...
Xie Kai rushed over and cut the ball with a hand knife!
The ball hit Westbrook's foot, flew out of the baseline, and hit a big brother cameraman—囧...
The fans in the stands couldn't help laughing out loud.
Fortunately, nothing happened to the cameraman brother.Taking pictures behind the baseline, it is estimated that he has also been smashed or hit many times, and he has already trained his body of steel and iron. This level of attack does not cause much damage.
Westbrook reasoned to the referee that Xie kicked the ball for a foul. He was so excited that the referee almost gave him a T.
Yang Jian smiled and said, "Aren't Wei Shao and Xie Kai good friends? I saw them at BJ last time. They went to Quanjude to eat roast duck together."
Yang Yi explained: "Brothers are still clear about their accounts. We are all professional players, and each is his master. If you are laughing and joking on the court and thinking about friendship, you are not qualified as a team leader."
The Grizzlies attacked and Conley passed the ball to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai received the ball, facing rookie Robertson, and the White Bears pick and roll, the Thunder immediately switched defenses.
The Thunder's defensive strategy is to let Perkins guard the basket, and the pick-and-roll guards are all fast-moving 18-cards.In fact, it is not difficult to understand, let Perkins go to cover, his movement is too slow, even slower than the black bear, except for pinching the ball holder, otherwise he can't keep up with the opponent at all.
Xie Kai faced 18 cards, in-out followed by Crossover, using his speed to rush in, attracting the white bears who were attacking and then pointing to the basket!
White Bear made a hook with his hand—hit!
The Grizzlies scored first!
On the Thunder side, Westbrook rushed to the basket and fed Perkins a piece of cake, but the latter was too slow, and Xie Kai, who helped defend him, interfered with his shot—no!
The old prince accepted the rebound and handed it to Conley to advance.
Conley pushed forward and gave it to Xie Kai who moved without the ball, but the latter didn't have a jumper!
Durant closed the board, pushed forward by himself, broke through and was flanked, and made a mistake in splitting the ball...
Looking back, the Grizzlies also made a mistake, and they reciprocated!
Yang Jian said: "The two teams are playing too tightly, there are too many mistakes, and the offense is not going well!"
Yang Yi explained: "Both teams have good interior defense, and it's hard to get the ball in. The game has just started, and the hands are not hot yet, and it's normal for the offense to not go well."
Westbrook dribbles over and organizes an offense at the top of the arc.
Perkins came out to cover, Westbrook rushed inside with the ball and plunged into the bear's den, causing a foul by the White Bear!
Yang Yi sighed: "Wesbrook is really fierce! He dares to charge like that, no matter the size of the black and white bears?"
Westbrook walked to the free throw line, and amidst the interference of away fans, he made two free throws steadily!
The two sides battled to a 2:2 tie!
The Grizzlies attacked, Conley dribbled the ball and gave it to Xie Kai!
Xie opened the lob to the low-post White Bear, who used his height and weight to force Ibaka.
Ibaka's vertical jumping ability is excellent, and his wingspan is also long, but it is still difficult for him to top the big center in the low post.
White Bear's low-post skills are not as good as Black Bear's, but he has a body, and is tall, so he can be sure of misplaced power forwards!
The White Bears drew a foul on Ibaka.
The Grizzlies serve in the frontcourt, the old prince catches the ball and gives it to Xie Kai!
Xie Kai made a fake lob, which attracted Durant's attention, but he suddenly made a strong hand, and the ball instantly flew into the hands of the old prince in the left corner!
Big open!
The old prince made a steady 3-point shot-yes!
5:2, the Grizzlies lead!
The Grizzlies fans in the stands cheered excitedly, and the atmosphere immediately rose.
Yang Jian sighed: "Xie Kai's pass is really a thief, Durant was fooled!"
Yang Yi said solemnly: "Xie Kai's ability to control the ball has always been excellent, let alone many No. 2 positions, even among the No. 1 positions in the league, few are better than him."
Yang Jian said with a smile: "This evaluation is not low!"
Yang Yi curled his lips: "Let's seek truth from the facts!"
While talking, Durant scored in a difficult singles match against the old prince
5:4, the point difference was narrowed to 1 points.
Conley dribbled the ball and gave it to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai took the ball to the left, and suddenly a few hits were thrown to the low-post White Bear!
The White Bear relied on 18 cards and made a strong move at the basket!
