Chapter 516 Not Enough
The opening two three-pointers ignited the passion of Quicken Loans Arena.And in the next few minutes, the Cavaliers continued this momentum and directly stunned the Thunder.
After JR's three-pointer hit, the Thunder launched another attack.In fact, they are not afraid of each other scoring.Westbrook and Adams started a wonderful pick-and-roll offense at the top of the key.The quality of Adams' cover is very high!George Hill had to go around and chase Westbrook, and at the same time, TT had switched defenses a step earlier.However, this is exactly what Westbrook wants to see.He continued to walk in, and when he got to the basket, he threw the ball over the basket.Adams, who came down, took off directly and dunked the ball easily.
Looks fine!Thunder can still score.However, An Luo could feel that the Cavaliers' defense was indeed much more active and stronger than in the previous two games.He's still running around.JR who followed him was inseparable, and the opponent was always stuck between him and Westbrook holding the ball, preventing him from catching the ball.
Looking back, it was JR who made a contribution on the offensive end.The Thunder's defense made the Cavaliers' offense a lot troubled, but they couldn't hold back the opponent's explosion. JR caught the ball inside the free throw line, went straight to the basket, swayed left and right, and hooked the ball into the basket against Paul George.
In the opening few minutes, JR's state is very good.It seems that he has returned to the Quicken Loans Arena he is familiar with, and he has become the familiar guard with a knife again.
Next, under JR's defense again, An Luo's three-pointer hit the front of the basket.After the rebound was grabbed by TT, the Cavaliers launched a counterattack.Love also missed the mid-range, but TT grabbed the rebound again.This time he didn't pass the ball, and after a feint that wobbled Adams up, he slammed the ball in through the crowd.
10：4，骑士在前2分钟里的表现，让人们看到了那一支1：3逆转勇士的总冠军球队的影子。
Next, Westbrook's layup after the breakthrough continued to be rejected by the basket.The Cavaliers got the chance to continue to open the score.But Thunder didn't panic.Their retreat was very quick, and their positions were not messed up.James catches the ball from outside the three-point line and hits it in.But he failed to get rid of Paul George's defense.In the end, he could only pass the ball to TT under the basket.He actually wanted to continue looking for JR, but An Luo didn't give the opponent a chance to catch the ball.However, TT did not disappoint him. After a change of footsteps at the basket, he found a chance and scored the ball with a rebound.
12:4, from the beginning of the game to the present, the Thunder only scored in one sports game.It has to be said that their condition is really not good.Of course, the Cavaliers' defense is also a very important factor.The way they took it was double-teaming!Constantly double-team Thunder players with the ball.Robertson once again became a breakthrough for the Thunder's offensive end.Most of the time, he was directly emptied by the Cavaliers.
In the next one and a half minutes, neither side was able to score.The sound of iron strikes echoed over the Quicken Loans Arena. The leading Cavaliers were more urgent than the lagging Thunder.They know very well that if they can't use the current momentum to widen the score enough, it will be very difficult for them to win after the Thunder find their own form.
But it was the Thunder that broke the deadlock.Under the cover of Paul George, Westbrook broke through and passed the ball to An Luo at a 45-degree angle on the left.Although An Luo wasn't vacant at this time, he waved his hand and JR posted it.Seeing the situation, An Luo directly stepped out from the left side, exerted his right arm very covertly, and then squeezed through.After getting rid of the defense, An Luo flew up after two steps, holding the basketball with his left hand, and with a flick of his right hand, he threw the ball into the basket.
Before he could be happy, James staged a very explosive dunk.
James still received the ball from outside the three-point line on the right. Facing Paul George, he did not observe the situation on the field for a while like the previous few times. Instead, he lowered his shoulders and lowered his body, and rushed directly from the opponent's side past.Paul George reacted very quickly, and he followed up almost instantly.Chasing the big hat is also his forte.But before he chased him out, he was firmly blocked by Love from the free throw line.
After getting rid of Paul George, James found himself driving to the rim with nothing but Adams at the rim.He will not miss such an opportunity.Ever since, his left foot began to exert strength.After two steps, the whole person rose into the air.With the ball in his right hand and his right arm outstretched, he was like a roc, skimming the paint and pressing the ball into the basket over Adams' head.
With a bang, the backboard began to shake.
After the dunk, James raised his head to the sky and screamed, and then showed off the muscles in his arms.
14:6, the Cavaliers have maintained their lead.And after this dunk, their momentum has risen again.In the next 3 minutes, a wave of 11:7 attacks was played, which opened the point difference to double digits in one fell swoop.At this time, Donovan finally couldn't sit still, and he called a timeout.
"Guys, what about our defense? What about our offense?" Donovan asked sharply: "You guys don't look like you want to win. Don't you think you can't play without Oklahoma?"
In many cases, what the head coach has to do is to let the players know what they should do on the court.This point may be much more important than tactics!
After a series of questioning, Donovan suppressed his anger and told his players what to do next.He expressed it very bluntly, An Luo must score, and then everyone defended desperately.
The effect of drinking it right away is not bad.In the closing minutes of the quarter, the Thunder finally played their game.Although they still couldn't completely restrain the Cavaliers, their offense was played out.Especially An Luo, when Paul George was resting, he almost shouldered all the Thunder's outside offense.However, he delivered a satisfactory answer sheet with 4 of 2 three-pointers.
When the first quarter ended, the Thunder's tenacious two-point chase made it 30:35.Although they are already 5 points behind, such a gap is too small for the Thunder.Everyone understands that the game for the Cavaliers is still very difficult.Although they performed well in the first quarter, they have already played the strongest combat effectiveness of their lineup.But the advantages they have gained are far from enough to make them breathe a sigh of relief.
