Chapter 195 Mentality
Kerr called a timeout, and he's under a lot of pressure right now.
With Durant joining this summer, their strength has been greatly improved.But what greeted them was ridicule and criticism from the entire league.It was originally a championship-level team, but without losing its strength, it also strengthened one of the league's strongest scorers.It's too ugly to eat!
If you want to gain respect, you can only rely on one victory after another to complete it.
But the beginning of the story is not good.In addition to beating the Trail Blazers in the game, whether it is the Suns or the Pelicans, the Warriors used a lot of effort to win the game.Let alone the big defeat to the Spurs in the first game!
This scene should be a big victory against the "broken" Thunder!But who knew, they fought so hard.More importantly, it may not be possible to win.
In the end, Cole handed the ball to Durant.After all, when Durant was attacking with the ball in this game, the Thunder had been in a passive state; moreover, Kerr felt that Durant should give the Warriors an explanation, after all, he was signed to prevent the team from opening up. Under the circumstances, give full play to personal strength and lead the team to victory.
Donovan also guessed Cole's arrangement.Handing the ball to Durant in the toughest of times is something he's been doing all year.He knows what Durant is capable of.
"Andre, Durant will leave it to you! You know how to influence his scoring."
He didn't stress to Robertson how to defend.Durant has almost no shortcomings on the technical level.But this guy has a serious flaw: when he has a bad shot, he likes to compete with himself.If you don't believe in evil and keep investing, the result is to keep hitting the iron.
In fact, this is a matter of mentality, and Robertson knows how to influence him.
Timeout back, the Warriors have the ball.
Curry drives the ball, Westbrook follows closely, as long as he focuses on defense, the effect is very good.After going full circle, there was no getting rid of Westbrook.So Curry handed the ball to Durant.
Robertson stuck it up immediately.He's a little shorter than Durant, but stronger.He hunched over and pressed Durant's lower body hard, making it uncomfortable for him to hold the ball.Then his left hand was quietly attached to the opponent's waist, affecting his exertion.The right hand is extended high to interfere with the opponent's possession and prevent him from passing the ball.
No one went up to double-team.The two historical-level shooters on the outside of the Warriors make it almost impossible for Durant to fall into double-team situations.Therefore, the burden on Robertson is very heavy.
Fortunately, he did a good job.
Durant was so uncomfortable that he reached out, trying to push Robertson away.But this action was taken advantage of by the opponent. Although the action of Robertson stumbling to the floor was slightly exaggerated, it still deceived the referee's eyes.
"Di!"
Offensive foul!
Durant was taken aback!What the hell is this Nima?He put his head in his hands, his face full of confusion!
The referee didn't listen to his explanation, and Robertson stood up under the "support" of Westbrook and ran to the front field.When passing by Durant's side, Robertson whispered something to him, and Durant's goatee was so angry that his goatee rose to the sky.
"Soft egg!"
Westbrook is not the only Thunder player who has opinions on Durant!
Thunder sideline ball, Westbrook dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line.Adams still came to the high position and gave him a pick and roll.But this time Westbrook didn't feed him the ball.Of course, he himself didn't go straight to the basket.
After Westbrook got rid of Curry and went inside, Adams moved to the left elbow and made a pick-and-roll for An Luo who was running over.He's big enough that Thompson simply can't squeeze his way through.
And Green has already chased Westbrook to the basket.An Luo broke out of the siege, and there was no one to defend him.
At this time, Westbrook has Pachulia in the front and Green in the back. It will definitely not work if he insists, maybe he will have to eat a cap!But he saw An Luo, so he made an emergency stop, faked a real pass, and sent the ball to An Luo.The latter shot as soon as he saved the ball, without any hesitation.
The basketball fell into the net bag accurately, and An Luo made another three-pointer!The Thunder tied the score.
After scoring the goal, An Luo looked very excited.While he retreated quickly, he had a passionate collision with Westbrook.In this game, he has scored 8 three-pointers!Many records have been broken.
Then, Durant faced Roberson again.Seeing Westbrook's excited look just now, he felt uncomfortable.Perhaps most people in this world, after breaking up, hope that their ex will not live so well!Moreover, what Robertson said just now had already ignited the anger in his heart.He must let these guys see how powerful he is!
He took the initiative to ask for the ball from beyond the three-point line.Green didn't want to give it to him, but because the others didn't have a good chance, he still passed the ball.Not many Warriors players welcome Durant so much.
After receiving the ball, Durant turned slightly and turned his back to Robertson.This time, he chose to hit back!
This is actually a very safe one-on-one offensive method, which is not easy to be intercepted and interfered with.But Robertson is stronger than him!He had to use all his strength to move.But when Robertson stopped suddenly, Durant staggered. Although he didn't fall down, the basketball in his hand was cut off by the opponent.
A perfect single defense.
Durant is too anxious, he wants to show it too much!Even if he was good enough tonight!
After being intercepted, he grabbed Robertson's jersey, and the latter struggled hard, and the two fell into a ball immediately.
The conflict finally happened, but the protagonists are not Durant and Westbrook.Fortunately, Robertson and Durant just put their foreheads together, spamming each other with trash talk.
An Luo, Curry and others hurriedly pulled the two apart, and they were playing basketball, but they couldn't fight.
The referees each play a rebound, and each has a technical foul.As the number of Warriors fouls has reached, Robertson stood on the free throw line.
After steadily scoring two free throws, the Thunder took the lead again!
Back, Green no longer gave the ball to Durant.After all, he has made two mistakes in a row.But as Curry missed a strong three-pointer against Westbrook, the initiative once again returned to the Thunder.
Still with the same cooperation, Westbrook used Adams' cover to enter the inside line, carried Green and scored the ball.The Thunder led by 4 points.Subsequently, Durant finally stopped entangled with Robertson.After trying unsuccessfully to shake Robertson away at the top of the arc, he passed the ball to Curry in the bottom corner, who caught the ball and shot, and finally hit!
121:120
The Thunder still lead by 1 point, and there are only 36 seconds left in the game!
However, the ball is still in the hands of the Thunder.Donovan finally called his last timeout, this ball must be scored!
