Start without the ball

Chapter 286

Originally, Li Haoyu was stuck between Clay and the baseline. After seeing Grant complete the steal, he put Thompson behind his back and received the basketball hoisted by his teammates.

Li Haoyu dribbled the ball to the inside, Rooney entered to protect the basket, Li Haoyu passed the ball to the middle.

After Grant passed the ball, he didn't stop for a long time. He went straight to the Warriors' penalty area, took over the basketball from Li Haoyu, and soared into the air.

Rooney tried to defend, but it was too late and he couldn't reach the flying Grant.

boom!
Grant dunked successfully, 0 to 4.
After the opening, the thunder is unstoppable!The Oklahoma City team kept bombing the Warriors' rim.

Rooney backed out of the baseline again, saw the Splash Brothers in the Thunder's perimeter defense, and passed the ball to Green.

The Warriors power forward dribbled the ball for half court and came to the top of the arc to organize an attack. He glanced at Westbrook next to Curry, thinking that if you can escape the cover of one person, then try two!
Raising their hands to indicate the tactics, the Warriors understood. Iguodala and Rooney ran to the right 45 degrees together. They wanted to reasonably prevent Westbrook from chasing Curry.

The two formed a siege, and Curry ran to the right corner. Westbrook did not have Li Haoyu's dexterous steps, but he had an enviable physical talent.

Before the two completely blocked themselves, Westbrook jumped hard to the right, avoiding the pincer attack, and then caught up with Curry again relying on his terrifying explosive power.

"Damn!"

The encirclement of the two failed to prevent Westbrook from defending Curry, and Clay on the other side also had difficulty getting the ball under Li Haoyu's defense.

For a while, the Warriors' offense stagnated. In the last round, Green's singles didn't work. He passed the ball to Iguodala on the right, hoping that he could come forward and do something for the team.

Since Iguodala came to the Warriors, his offense with the ball has weakened. Facing the defense of the steal king Paul George, he is extra careful. Time keeps passing. In the end, Iguodala still failed to get rid of the defense. In a hurry, he forcibly retreated and shot.

boom!
Adams took the rebound, and he looked back, Westbrook had passed the center line, and hit his teammate hard with the ball in his right hand.

After getting the ball, Westbrook accelerated with all his strength, and the only target was the basket in front of him. Curry tried to chase, but everything was futile in the face of absolute speed!

He could only look at the back of No. 0 and sigh.

boom!
With a one-armed tomahawk, Westbrook ravaged the Warriors' basket to his heart's content.

The Pisacek Energy Center is boiling!They saw the defending champion pale under the team's strict defense, and the fighting spirit shown by Westbrook today made their blood boil!

As the Thunder started to rise, Cole couldn't sit still and asked for a timeout. He also felt ashamed of the amazing oppressive force displayed by the Thunder team.

Tengxing commentary seat.

Ke Fan: "Thunder's momentum is unstoppable!!! Tonight's Thunder team is in a hot state, and you can see his desire for victory from everyone!"

Yang Yi: "A horse rides into the joint venture, a horse rides like a thousand, you are an April day in the world! Today Westbrook tried his best to achieve the ultimate. On the defensive end, he contained the Warriors' core arrow Stephen Curry. On the offensive end, he is still That unstoppable blue lightning in Oklahoma City, Westbrook like this is the best Westbrook!"

Barrage.

"Brother Turtle!!! You have finally awakened!!"

"It should have been like this long ago, why bother, of course, it's not too late to wake up now!"

"Today, when Westbrook is not chasing for rebounds, Adams gets the rebounds, and Westbrook can go down quickly and hit a sharp counterattack with his extraordinary speed. He really wants to win."

Back on the bench, Donovan had a smile on his face: "Well done, Russell, you did a great job, I know you can do it all!"

Westbrook still didn't say a word, he went back to the bench and sat down and covered his cheeks with a towel.

Today, in anger, with an infinite desire for victory, he stimulated all the potential in his heart, because he is not fighting alone!
"Thank you, my dear friend, let us rush all the way to the final victory."

Warriors bench, Kerr used his loudest voice to encourage the players: "Cheer up, you are the super team that won three championships in four years!

Be sure to pay attention to running off the ball more, remember that we are a unit, they may beat one of us, but they cannot beat the Golden State Warriors united! "

Curry wiped off his sweat with a towel. Westbrook put him under tremendous pressure in this game.

In the first game, Westbrook was just ravaging Curry in the low post. At that time, he could still fight back on the offensive end.

Today, Westbrook is like a hungry wolf in the snowfield who has been hungry for a long time, and he never let go after biting his prey.

After the timeout, players from both sides stepped onto the battlefield, and the shouts of OKC went straight to the sky.

Green took over the basketball in the backcourt and dribbled it to the frontcourt. He could only play a simple match with Iguodala Rooney. And Curry was frozen by Li Haoyu and teamed up.

Cole's timeout had no effect. Under such a fierce defense, his outside core was frozen, and the team's unsolvable ball-handling attacker could only sit on the bench and watch the game at this time.

The game got bigger and bigger. At 2 minutes and 30 seconds into the first quarter, the two sides battled for 13 to 27 points, and the Thunder led by as much as 14 points!
The big lead gave Donovan the capital to replace Li Haoyu. In the transition period, the Huaguo defender appeared again.

No one in the Warriors could deal with his offense. Li Haoyu scored consecutively. At the end of the first quarter, the battle between the two sides was 16-36, and the Thunder led by 20 points!
In this game, the Warriors have lost all momentum, and the Thunder has completely suppressed the defending champion in terms of momentum. The offense is endless, and the defense is like an impregnable wall.

The Warriors could also count on their MVP Stephen Curry when Klay Thompson was frozen by Li Haoyu in the first two games.

But today, Westbrook stepped forward and personally blocked the absolute core of the Warriors. This Warriors completely lost the three-pointers they depended on for survival.

最终比分81比112，雷霆主场大胜卫冕冠军31分，将系列赛的大比分改写为2比1！

In this game, Westbrook played the most brilliantly. He scored 32 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, and 3 steals. Although the data is not as dazzling as the usual triple-double, everyone who has watched the game Everyone knows what he did for the team tonight.

The defensive end blocked Curry, and all 4 rebounds were offensive rebounds.

After removing the shackles of the triple-double, Westbrook's shooting rate exceeded 65%. This is the most efficient Thunder point guard since the playoffs!
It is not only Westbrook who performed far better than before, but also Paul George. In the first two games, he was gradually lost in Iguodala's defense, but after two days of careful research and watching dozens of hours of video playback , he figured out the opponent's defensive habits. In this game, he scored 48 points with a 31% shooting rate!
