Start without the ball

Chapter 317 Angry Westbrook
After Li Haoyu returned to the bench, Ferguson asked: "Why did you pass the ball to me suddenly, I almost missed it."

Felton: "Is there something wrong with that guy? I find it strange to see his behavior on the court."

Li Haoyu nodded solemnly: "That bug wants to step on it."

Grant said indignantly: "If you can't beat them, you hurt others. These guys are too shameless!"

Schroeder: "Fortunately, you're fine. If you hurt others, you'll end up hurting yourself. That guy deserves to be hurt!"

Donovan: "Lee, you take a break first, others pay attention, if the Raptors continue to send players who have never played, they must be more careful."

Westbrook said viciously: "They are insulting basketball, labor and management will never end with them."

After the timeout, the main lineups of both sides returned to the court. On the Thunder side, Li Haoyu was still resting off the court, and Siakam in the Raptors was also taking the opportunity to breathe.

Leonard executed a technical foul free throw and made a steady hit amidst the shouts of MVP, 37 to 29.

The Thunder attacked, and Westbrook dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, motioning for everyone to pull away.

He has long regarded Li Haoyu as his affectionate brother, and the Raptors actually tried to hurt this rising star of the future, which made Westbrook extremely unhappy.

Looking at Lowry in front of him with fierce eyes, Westbrook dribbled the ball with his left hand and kicked the ground with all his strength. The bulging muscles of his legs burst out with terrifying power, like Li Xuan's arrow, straight to the inside.

Lowry tried to slide to follow up the defense, but his speed couldn't cope with the full-speed impact of the Thunder Turtle, and he was thrown away after one step.

Gasol on the left returned to the inside to try to block, but Westbrook was already blindsided, and he only had the orange basket in his eyes.

Standing up, the right hand holding the ball stretched back with all its strength, like a giant crescent moon bow ready to go, roaring, the Thunder Turtle smashed the ball into the frame with the momentum of smashing Huashan.

boom!
After landing, Westbrook roared to vent his emotions, 39 to 29, Westbrook expanded the score to 10 points!
The Raptors attacked, Lowry came to the frontcourt, saw Leonard asking for the ball in the low post on the right, and decisively lobbed the ball.

The team fell behind, and now Leonard must step forward to stabilize the situation. This is his value as a superstar.

After receiving the ball and fighting hard, George took a step back, feeling that there was space, Leonard turned to the line, his strong waist and abdomen stabilized his figure, and he moved his wrist to shoot.

bang-shua~
The basketball hit the back and fell straight into the net, 39 to 31, and Leonard stabilized the point difference at 8 points.

Westbrook took the basketball and dribbled it across the center line. George was defended by Leonard.

Due to fear of Westbrook's speed, Lowry took a big step away and broke through the main defense.

The Turtle picked up speed again and went straight to the right. Lowry had enough reaction time to move forward to block it.

At the moment when he was about to hit Lowry, Westbrook pushed the ball to his left hand and continued to move towards the penalty area.

Ibaka stepped forward to defend, Westbrook had only one voice in his mind, going forward!

Started on the left side, set up his right hand to prevent Ibaka from completing the block, and made a layup with his left hand.

The basketball came out of the frame, he rushed too fast, and didn't grasp the strength of his fingertips.

The Raptors attacked, Lowry advanced with the ball, and encountered Westbrook's full resistance on the center line.

Westbrook was annoyed by not hitting a layup in the last round, and he wanted to make redemption on the defensive end.

Lowry turned around and dribbled the ball, using his solid back against Westbrook, waiting for his teammates to respond.

At this moment, Westbrook circled to the right, ready to steal the basketball in Lowry's hands.

Although the Raptors guard has been criticized for being invisible in the playoffs, his ability to defeat many guards in the East and reach the All-Star stage is enough to show his ability. The aggressive Westbrook gave up a huge gap on the left.

Lowry turned around quickly, not only dodged Westbrook's press, but also threw off the defense!
The Raptors guard accelerated and rushed to the inside. George, who was 45 degrees to the left, stepped forward to defend, trying to delay Lowry and buy time for Westbrook to chase back.

Lowry has no habit of sticking to the ball, and decisively passed the ball to Leonard in the open space.

The Raptors forward jumped up and shot in the most mechanical way.

shuh~
The basketball went into the net hollow, 39 to 34, Leonard narrowed the point difference to 5 points.

There were bursts of cheers in the Scotiabank Arena, and the star Leonard stepped forward to rekindle the hope of winning for the home fans.

Ke Fan: "Westbrook is not calm, this time the defense is too aggressive."

Yang Yi: "The dunk on Gasol made his blood boil. Westbrook probably forgot where the pass button and brake button are. George can't take advantage of Leonard. He is the only stable ball holding point. It shouldn't be so reckless."

Barrage.

"Brother Turtle, please calm down, okay X20"

"Westbrook is on the top again, he is too impulsive."

"Westbrook's greatest enemy is how to manage his emotions."

Donovan on the sidelines frowned. He knew what was going to happen to Westbrook, so he quickly motioned for George to ask for the ball.

Coming to the frontcourt, George landed two steps away at 45 degrees to the right, making a gesture for the ball.

Turtle wanted to do his best to score for the team in this attack, but George, who hadn't attacked for a long time, was asking for the ball. After several struggles, he still passed the ball to his teammates.

After getting the ball, the Thunder forward slowly approached Leonard at 45 degrees with his crotch continuously.

The Raptors forward suddenly stepped forward and pressed high pressure. George, who was dribbling the ball under his crotch, kept retreating to protect the basketball. He was looking for Leonard's defensive flaws and waited for an opportunity to complete a breakthrough.

The Raptors forward saw George retreat and continued to move forward until he was next to George.

The Thunder forward had no choice but to block the defense sideways and dribble with his right hand to protect the ball.

Leonard continued to exert confrontation, George was a little unstable, the Raptors forward saw the timing, made a decisive move, and slapped the ball to the frontcourt.

Accelerating at full speed, picking up the basketball, the frontcourt was empty, Leonard dunked with one arm and scored 2 points.

39 to 36, the Raptors are only 3 points behind!

The fans kept shouting loudly, the Raptors are on the move!

Donovan called a timeout.

O'Neill: "Lee established a 9-point advantage for the team. In a blink of an eye, Kawhi almost tied the score."

Barkley said bluntly: "Russell played too aggressively. As a strong point of holding the ball, he should handle the ball more calmly. Today he is a bit too emotional."

Miller: "Lee is so important to the Thunder, not only because of his scoring ability, but also because he is the only player who can calm Russell down."

Pierce: "Donovan has shortened the time he and Russell share the floor in order to play an advantage in the transition period.

In the past, Lee played at the end of the first quarter at most, and he would appear with the main lineup in the second quarter, but today, he played the first transition period, and he was still recovering when the main team first came on the field. "

O'Neill: "You can't have both, Donovan has to make a good decision on how to arrange Lee's playing time."

　I would like to say sorry to everyone, I have been too busy at work recently, and I come home late every day, please forgive me.
