Start coaching the Thunder, starting with Westbrook

Chapter 206 The Effect of Chicken Soup

Chapter 206 The Effect of Chicken Soup

It was impossible to make a shot. On the other side, the Spurs and the Grizzlies were tied 2:2 in four games, and they were about to go to the tiebreaker. The Thunder happily took a plane to Dallas, but they didn't expect to be slapped in the face at the beginning of the game.

Nuo Tianwang and Haitian center Samuel Dalembert made consecutive kills inside. The referee really blew it. In the first 3 minutes of the first quarter, the Thunder had committed three fouls on the inside, especially the young Gobert, who was taught a lesson by the seniors.

Li Sheng could only replace Perkins. As a result, the slow-footed Perkins was seized by Alice to make continuous breakthroughs. Ibaka's supplementary defense gave Nowitzki a chance on the other side.

Alice made two layups, another scored 2+1, Nowitzki hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner, and a Golden Rooster independent jumper hit the board. The Mavericks started 17:9.

Li Sheng also knows the situation from the sidelines, and now he can only take one step at a time, because he knows that the league does not want to have a sweep in the first round, and one more game will bring more income and more attention.

The league doesn't care if your team will get tired from playing one more game, or if players get injured after more accidents, and even some uncertainties brought about by this may actually increase the charm of sports (gaming) and sports (lottery).

Afterwards, the Thunder managed to stabilize the situation by relying on their strong strength, at least not allowing the score to be stretched too wide.

At halftime, the Thunder temporarily trailed by 47 points 56:9.

During the halftime break, Li Sheng was also trying to figure out the alliance's intentions. Do they want the Thunder to let go of this game and go back to the home court to advance, or do they want to delay another game?
After all, the structure of the First Super League can easily make games, especially playoff games with only one final winner, boring.

When the ending is doomed, except for the fans of each team, most people are not very good at paying attention to the process.

What they want is uncertainty, the unexpected, so that it can bring surprises.

It's as if no one thought last year that the Spurs would eventually reach the finals, win the championship, overturn the Heat of the Big Three, and prevent them from defending the title, but this is what the audience wants to see.

This is why everyone was very enthusiastic about the new season at the beginning of this season, but as the regular season progressed, the strength of the Thunder made many people feel that there was no suspense in the ending.

It's a pity that I can't figure it out by myself, and it is impossible for the league to come to him for hints. They will only instruct the referee, and it is even more impossible for the referee to tell him.

After looking around at the players, Li Sheng sighed secretly.

He knew that it would be better to conform to the league at this time, but he didn't want to see the players disappointed. After all, young people like to make faces on the opposite home court, especially when Cuban has been stubborn.

The alliance is indeed the big daddy, but I'm not afraid of it, I'm hanging it up, and it's a big deal to buy more things to use together.

Speaking of which, he hasn't used the previous record points yet, and entered the playoffs so smoothly that he forgot about it.

There is also the "Battle Flag" buff. The regular season was supposed to be over, but in the end, although they didn't break the record, they tied the record. The system also gave a "record" buff. The Thunder's smooth playoffs should also be due to this factor. Morale and state are maintained very well.

Even rookies get into the game quickly, which is impossible in normal times.

So Li Sheng made a decision in his heart, and immediately coughed to attract everyone's attention, and then said with a smile: "Guys, if we lose this game, we will go back to the home court to advance."

Durant and Westbrook frowned in confusion, wondering why the coach chose to say such morale-shattering words at this time.

Although what he said is true, because the penalty this time is not a black whistle, it is a double standard and a home whistle. For the Thunder, which has too many rookies, the tight whistle plays a big role.

Even Robertson had two fouls on his back. He is the rookie who can control fouls best--Ennis has the least fouls, but because his defense sometimes can't keep up, he doesn't even have a chance to foul.

However, everyone has developed the habit of listening to the coach's words in full. No one interrupts, and they all listen to him continue to speak. Sure enough, Li Sheng then sneered and said: "Of course the league wants to see this, because it wants to sell tickets. Maybe Mr. Bennett also thinks, who wouldn't like to make money?

"But if you can win, why lose, and if you can sweep, why give face? Did 'Mr. Cuban' give us face? The players on the opposite side are good people, and I know you have a good relationship with them, but this is a game, and one side always loses.

"Believe me, send them back to fish as soon as possible, maybe they will be grateful to you!"

"Hahaha……"

Cheerful laughter suddenly sounded in the locker room, which also convinced Li Sheng that the military spirit was available.

That being the case, of course the game will not be let go.

If you don't let me sweep, I will sweep, why is Lao Tzu rebellious?
The big deal is to add a "constant state" mode, which can be used directly to increase the team's offensive power. Anyway, it's only five points, and a game can't be wasted.

In fact, this state can last for three days, but it is just before the next game, so there is no way to say.

Li Sheng just thinks that the younger they are, the more they should be inspired, whether it is stimulating them by pressing their record in the regular season, or directly encouraging them now.

Judging from the effect, it is indeed very good, because although the Mavericks took the lead again in the second half, the Thunder held steady this time and did not lose the score.

The referees can't talk nonsense at this time. After all, they only need to ensure that the Mavericks can win, and it doesn't matter whether it is ten or one point.

As a result, there were twists and turns in the second half of the third quarter. First, Reggie made a steal and assisted Ennis with a two-handed dunk, and then Ibaka's flying cap prevented the Mavericks for 24 seconds.

Looking back, Lamb received a pass from Gobert and hit an open three-pointer, directly chasing the point difference to 3 points.

Just when the referee's whistle was about to sound, Harris used the cover to break through and hit a layup.

The Thunder also had an offense this time, and then the Mavericks' defense was blocked again, but the Thunder failed to make a fast break. Marion retreated quickly and directly intercepted Antetokounmpo's hasty pass.

On the sidelines, Li Sheng immediately signaled them to calm down. Although they wanted to play fast against the Mavericks, and this is the best way to win by flushing the old bulls out of their wits, but this speed must be in their own rhythm, not by themselves.

The Thunder served the ball in the frontcourt. After Reggie came out to catch the ball, Lamb and Ennis crossed positions. Antetokounmpo also came up for a pick-and-roll. When Reggie bypassed him, he noticed that both opponents were attracted. He immediately passed back to Antetokounmpo.

Lamb, who slipped in under the cover of the lower limit, took off directly and received a dunk in the air.

BANG!

"Beautiful! With the wonderful cooperation of the Thunder, the Mavericks' defensive attention was all attracted, and the basket was completely empty. The Thunder chased the score to only 1 point!"

This time Carlisle called a timeout. Li Sheng noticed that the referee seemed to be looking at him, but he didn't care.

If you have the ability, continue to blow it, and see if you blow it fast or we cut points and cut it fast.

The biggest advantage of the Thunder now is that they have more players who can score, and the Mavericks basically concentrate on those few. The Thunder have the defensive resources to hold down their offensive points, but the Mavericks can't defend their few ball-holding points at all.
