"The game is over! It's over!"
After the first quarter, everyone had such an idea in their hearts.Under the Thunder's attack, the Cavaliers had no room to fight back!
A few minutes later, the fighting resumed.Donovan is still the most regular employer, with Paul George and Robertson playing with three substitute players.They want to get enough rest time for Westbrook and An Luo.Of course, the Cavaliers are similar.Tyronn Lue still has a way of time management.He rested James when Paul George was on the floor, avoiding tangling with him on the defensive end.When Paul George rests, he will play again.Brewer gave him far less trouble.
However, without James on the court, the Cavaliers really can't do it.Even if both sides are in rotation, they are not opponents.Nance Jr. and Jeff Green, who performed well on the bench in the last game, are no longer miraculous, and their performances are very average.In contrast, the few players on the Thunder's side seemed to have been slapped with chicken blood!Felton is better, especially Kanter and Grant, who were compared with each other in the last game, which made them very upset.This time, finally caught the opportunity, finally let out a sigh of relief!
As soon as the second quarter started, the enthusiasm shown by the Thunder was not at all like a team with 14 points of experience, but as if it was behind by more than ten points.
The Cavaliers attacked first, and George Hill advanced with the ball.When James is not on the court, his burden is even heavier.He must organize the team's offense well, and more often he needs to score by himself.Of course, he is fully capable of this.
After receiving the basketball from his teammates again at the top of the arc, George Hill observed it, and then beckoned.Nance Jr. understood, and immediately ran out to set him a pick-and-roll.George Hill used the screen to get rid of the defense and rushed to the inside and went to the basket.Kanter has always lacked some heat when defending the pick-and-roll.However, this time he was surprising. He switched almost immediately, occupying a favorable defensive position.
George Hill was almost unable to complete this attack by himself.After Kanter fell down, the defensive area is still very large.But Felton couldn't stop Nance Jr.!After the latter finished the pick-and-roll, he went down immediately. George Hill saw the situation and threw the ball up, feeding Nance Jr. with a very beautiful empty catch.
The pass was passed on beautifully, but there were problems in the subsequent link.Although Felton has no way to restrict Nance Jr., it doesn't mean that the Thunder has no one else to do this.When Kanter was taken away by the opponent, Grant withdrew to the penalty area immediately.He jumped up directly facing Nance Jr., raised his hands, and pressed down on the basketball caught by Nance Jr.It's like a blocking action in a volleyball game.
At the same time, Nance Jr. is also pressing the ball hard into the basket.The two collided in the air, and neither of them backed down.However, two hands are still stronger than one hand.Grant slapped the basketball with both hands, and immediately pressed the ball down.
Nance Jr. stretched out his hands toward the referee in protest, thinking Grant had fouled him.But it doesn't help!The referee didn't have time to talk to him at all.Because everyone's attention is on the other side of the field.
After the lob fed by George Hill was pressed by Grant, Paul George quickly snatched the ball into his hands.Then go straight to the other side of the center line.Jeff Green followed closely behind Paul George, followed by Brewer, George Hill and others.Unlike Westbrook, Paul George will find a way to score the ball instead of looking for the teammate with the best opportunity in the first place.He was half a body ahead of Jeff Green. When the two rushed to the free throw line, Paul George suddenly changed direction. He turned a corner, stepped out to the front right, and then took two steps. The left side of the body is against Jeff Green, and the right hand holds the basketball and pulls it up from the right side, hitting the ball into the basket.
"Di~"
As Paul George's body flew diagonally, the referee's whistle sounded.Jeff Green not only failed to prevent the opponent's layup this time, but also caught a foul.
The Cavaliers were dissatisfied with the referee's penalty.Both the players and the head coach Tyronn Lue were very puzzled and even a little angry.Especially Nance Jr. and Jeff Green, they think the referee has let the Thunder off!Turned a blind eye to the Thunder's foul, but killed them.
Of course, if the protests are effective, every game in the NBA will become a bargain market.
A few minutes later, the main players of both sides returned to the field again.At this time, the Thunder still leads the opponent by 17 points!Tyronn Lue put all his hopes on James.Although the situation in the game was very difficult, the situation they encountered in the last game was not much more optimistic than tonight!There will be opportunities as long as you don't give up.
An Luo has been waiting for this moment for a long time.He doesn't like the feeling of watching his teammates win the game from the sidelines.So after playing, he was very active.
Westbrook also felt his partner's emotions, and he directly gave up his plan to hit the basket.After the next screen to shake off George Hill's defense, he directly passed the ball.Adams stopped by the basket as usual, and Paul George rushed into the inside with the rhythm of the two.At this time, only An Luo and Robertson were still outside.After the two covered each other, Robertson helped An Luo get a good position.It was under such circumstances that Westbrook's pass came into An Luo's hands.After the latter catches the ball, he pulls up and shoots.He didn't worry about the interference that Le Fu brought over would bring him.
"Shh!"
The basketball hit the net, and the Thunder once again opened the point difference to 20 points.
Next, Thunder's aura was even more incredible!Especially on the offensive end, they are fully fired, and they will never give up until they open the point difference to the point of absolute reassurance.Obviously, 20 points is not safe!
The fans in the Chesapeake Energy Arena are as energetic as their own players.After An Luo or other Thunder players hit a goal, they will immediately burst into the most intense and neat shouts.
The Cavaliers suddenly felt that maybe it would be better for him to lose directly in the last game!In such an atmosphere, even without a little booing, they were under enormous pressure.Even James has been greatly affected.He's literally racing the entire city right now!
