Chapter 427 Perfect ending
In the last game, Westbrook still failed to achieve an average triple-double.Still, he's close.In the closing game, Westbrook had to grab 15 rebounds to accomplish that feat.You must know that grabbing 15 rebounds in a single game is not an easy task.Even those big inside rebounders are not easy.Not to mention Westbrook is a guard.However, Westbrook played very hard in this game.Especially at the basket, he worked harder.Thunder's first rebound was grabbed by him, and then grabbed the offensive rebound.
As difficult as it was, he made it through the third quarter.In the field of averaging a triple-double this season, Westbrook has become the No. 1 in history.However, because he focuses on rebounding, he basically doesn't participate too much in the offense.Even so, the Thunder continued to widen the gap.Brewer hit a 97-pointer before the end of the third quarter.With this goal, the Thunder ended the first half with 67:30. With a [-]-point difference, there is basically no suspense in this game.
In the last quarter of the game, the Grizzlies still had Dillon Brooks as the main attacker and finished the game with the Thunder.As the host of the Thunder, Westbrook only played for a few minutes with a bunch of substitute players.After all, it's his home court, so it's not good to not play the main players for a whole quarter.Most people watch the game, but there are still many fans who come to watch the game live because of these players.What's more, the alliance's ban still needs to be taken into account for a while.Otherwise, in Donovan's mind, the game would be abandoned.Even the few important rotation players will not play.
But this last section is not as boring as imagined.Westbrook, who got what he wanted, started to attack.With the Grizzlies' weak defense, his breakthrough was extremely easy.Kobe Simmons is still far behind, and although Westbrook didn't put his mind on defense before, he still didn't perform particularly well.
The best shot came with 8 minutes left in the game.Kobe Simmons of the Grizzlies passed the ball to his teammate, then used the screen to cut back to the basket and catch the ball for a layup.But the ball was slapped by Grant, who switched defenses.Westbrook has quick eyes and quick hands, picked up the basketball and ran towards his frontcourt.The speed was so fast that even McClemo, who was originally in front of him, was thrown far away by his acceleration.In this case, Westbrook didn't hesitate at all.He rushed directly over the three-point line, threw the ball to the backboard at the free throw line, and then exerted force with his legs, and he jumped up suddenly.
"Boom!"
Westbrook, who was flying in the air, raised his right arm and pressed the ball into the basket.His dunks have always been simple, but very powerful.It feels very explosive.
After dunking, Westbrook bent his arms inward, with a ruthless expression, and took a few steps to the edge of the auditorium with a bully step.The atmosphere in the Chesapeake Energy Arena rose immediately.No one doesn't love Westbrook's dunks, especially in this arena.Over the years, the only thing that hasn't changed is Westbrook's dunk!
Westbrook's show isn't over yet.Looking back, Kobe Simmons advanced with the ball, and Westbrook, who followed closely, put him under great pressure.In previous games, he has never felt such a pressing defense.For a while, Kobe Simmons couldn't react.But Westbrook is a master of steals. He saw the opponent's hesitation, and then directly posted it to give the opponent a physical confrontation.Kobe Simmons stepped back quickly, but in a hurry, Westbrook stabbed the ball directly from behind.
However, Kobe Simmons tried his best to save and fell into a ball with Westbrook.But Ferguson on the side moved faster. He grabbed the ball before the Grizzlies' Brooks, slapped his right arm, and launched an attack with the ball.But Ferguson is not Westbrook. Although he controlled the ball, he was also entangled by Brooks.However, it did not affect this attack.Westbrook got up and saw that the referee didn't respond, so he quickly rushed beyond the three-point line.Ferguson's pass came soon after, and Westbrook immediately turned into An Luo, and it was a three-pointer when he pulled it up.
"Shh!"
The ball went in!Westbrook clapped his hands at An Luo, very excited.
After this ball, Westbrook's scoring has reached double digits.Moreover, the Thunder's leading score once again exceeded 30 points.Subsequently, Westbrook was replaced by Donovan.It really doesn't make sense to wait any longer.
When Westbrook left the court, there was another loud cheer in the arena.In the end, the Thunder easily defeated the Grizzlies from afar in this game.Got the 68th win of the season.
At the press conference after the game, Donovan attended with Westbrook, Paul George and An Luo.After all, it is the final battle of the regular season, and the reporters and media are very much looking forward to getting some information about the playoffs from them.Westbrook, who just averaged a triple-double for the second time, naturally became the focus of this press conference.
"Russell, what you've accomplished tonight is unbelievable. The past two seasons have changed a lot for you. Now, how do you feel?"
"It's crazy! It's unbelievable. Of course, it's an honor. I never thought I'd do something like this. Like I said before, I've always been competitive on the court. Thank God! And of course my teammates and the management of the team, so that I can always focus on the game."
"You only need to get 15 rebounds tonight to pass Oscar Robertson and claim the triple-double title. There are a lot of people who have different opinions about your performance in this game. How do you see it yourself? of?"
"If I can do it, why don't I do it? That's the motto I live by. I'll always live by it. It gives me strength. The competitive instinct makes me give my best on the court, that's who I am. something to try to do."
"Now that the regular season is over, regardless of personal data and record, what chance do you think you have of winning the championship?"
"I think we're doing well now. We've been doing well all season! No one has done better than us in the previous few months. This last month, I don't think there will be! For that , we have been preparing for it all the time!"
