On the court, Durant came on to replace Green.
Westbrook dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, used Kostic to cover, and forced a breakthrough on the left.

Ibaka ran up to the wall to cover again, Westbrook tirelessly started again, and still rushed.
This time, Randolph, who was responsible for intercepting the free throw line, was slower than Jordan and obviously couldn't keep up.
The Clippers hurriedly surrounded and intercepted, Westbrook bit the bullet and rushed to the basket, but he didn't dare to force a layup. Instead, he jumped up and jumped out of bounds, turning his body like a twist, and passed the ball with difficulty. Krstic with two players stuck.
Krstic was completely unprepared and hurried to catch the basketball, unable to grasp it steadily.
On the verge of a turnover, Krstic threw the ball straight to the right wing, where Durant was standing.
Barnes returned to the defense in a hurry, and Durant took the ball and jumped up and shot a three-pointer at an extremely fast speed.
bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.
The Thunder chased 37 to 53 and continued to maintain the situation.
"Come on, come on, I have a hunch, this is the beginning of Durant's explosion!" Thomas said excitedly, "Actually, from the beginning of the second quarter, I found that Durant deliberately increased the speed of his shots to avoid being interfered by his body. .”
"It seems that he has gradually adapted now? Looking forward to a soaring point battle!" Miller said.
...
On the court, Su Yang waited for the ball from the bottom line.
Westbrook approached with a stern face, as if he wanted to eat people, and it was obvious that he wanted to defend the whole audience.
"It's useless for you to lock me up." Su Yang said with a smile, "For someone as powerful as me, there are five more..."
Westbrook didn't answer, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit and anger, and the pressure was on the verge of breaking out.
Su Yang chuckled, and waved directly to cover, and Jordan immediately ran over and erected a wall to block Westbrook.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Yang started to sprint, got rid of Westbrook and went straight to the center line in the blink of an eye. He didn't think it was necessary to fight, even if it would make others feel too cowardly. After all, he was far ahead now, and he couldn't give the Thunder a chance to easily chase points.
While thinking about it, Su Yang reached the top of the arc, launched a pick-and-roll, and went right to the paint.
The three of the Thunder shrank and intercepted. Su Yang led them around the baseline, raised his hand and passed the ball to Jordan who followed him, and then went straight to the left corner, setting up a wall to block Sefoloza, while Gordon Take the opportunity to run to the left.
Jordan threw the ball over at the same time. Gordon caught the ball and flew high to Westbrook who was changing defense. He rushed to the elbow area with two steps, stopped and jumped suddenly, ignoring the yelling Ibaka, and raised his hand. Remember to hit the basket and hit the shot.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 55 to 37.
Offensive and defensive transition, Durant ran across the center line with the ball, made an emergency stop and made a long pass to the left sideline.
Westbrook takes the ball and dribbles two steps forward, finds Ibaka at a 45-degree position as a cover, gets rid of Su Yang and walks to the sideline to break through.

Suddenly, Su Yang stopped, turned around and rushed to the top of the arc, and escaped with the help of Gordon's cover.
Barnes immediately passed the ball, and Gordon followed from the paint and returned to the left wing.
The originally very crowded paint area suddenly became extremely empty, and Su Yang caught the ball and held it high. Westbrook, who wanted to fly to block the block, took a sharp step and entered the paint area again, like a sharp knife piercing the Thunder's heart.
Krstic and Durant shrunk to intercept, Su Yang threw the ball above the basket, and Jordan received a dunk in the air.
"The Thunder team's defensive strategy has almost collapsed. They don't know how to defend Su Yang, and they don't understand the Clippers' tactical moves. They almost don't have that kind of planned rotation, and they all rely on their personal ability to forcibly defend." Miller said. ,
"I think it's because Harden and Ibaka started the game that they didn't use the most familiar rotation plan, and Su Yang seized the opportunity to score more than ten points in a row, and finally fell into chaos." Thomas said.
On the court, Westbrook hit Su Yang with his back on the right elbow.
The two seem to have reached a tacit understanding, Su Yang didn't try to press, but just firmly established his heels and forced the top.
And Westbrook didn't shake, he just lowered his center of gravity and chiseled hard until the five seconds of his back came.
Westbrook yanked the ball forward and turned around, while Su Yang took the initiative to retreat to prevent the breakthrough.

Su Yang didn't push himself too hard, he stopped immediately with the thought of 'I scored enough points, it should be the turn of my teammates to perform', raised his hand and made a pass behind the back, and Randolph caught the ball at 45 degrees on the left , Confidently rushing to shoot a three-pointer.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 60 to 41.
With 2 minutes and 32 seconds left before halftime, many spectators chanted 'we won'.
The central big screen shot was shown to Thunder coach Brooks, and I saw him pretending to be calm.
In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook ran to the top of the arc with the ball, patted on the spot and waited.
Durant has been running from the bottom corner for decades, using Ibaka's cover to go around the 45-degree three-point line on the right, raising his hand to receive the pass from Westbrook, turning around and dribbling the ball under the box for two steps, and the elbow District hit Barnes with his back.

Meanwhile, Barnes slid into the right elbow, covered by Randolph, and went straight to the right corner.
The Thunder's defense can't find the center of gravity at all!
Su Yang saw the timing, raised his hand and hit the ground vigorously to pass the ball.
Jordan received the ball and started a three-step layup. Facing Durant, he shrunk and intercepted, and raised his hand to pass the ball to the right corner.
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Barnes took the ball and took off, facing Durant back with a three-pointer.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 63 to 43.
The cheers in the arena went straight to the ceiling, followed by the sound of the whistle, and the official advertising time came.
Thomas shook his head and said: "Compared with Barnes, I am more worried about Randolph making a three-pointer, and it is in an unforced situation, which means that he has ensured that he can win. I can't imagine how the Thunder will achieve a big comeback... "
"The trend of the series is basically predictable, and it is very likely that the gentleman will sweep 4-1..."
