Start without the ball

Chapter 33
In the first half of the second quarter, Westbrook hit the iron one after another. Fortunately, George stabilized the game after taking over the ball.

On the other side, Irving shot from inside and outside, and had already scored 21 points by the end of halftime.

The score between the two sides came to 51 to 49, with the Thunder trailing by 2 points.

After returning to the locker room, Donovan asked Westbrook not to shoot anymore, to increase his defensive strength, to launch a counterattack, and to focus on George on the offensive end. After George opened up the space, Westbrook waited for an opportunity to break through.

In the Tencent live broadcast room, the X Turtle Conference has been arranged.

"Brother Yuzi's gap made Tie Guilang disappear like this?"

"I feel sorry for my brother Yuzi."

"Westbrook has no basket after returning from injury. The previous zombies are quite accurate."

"Irving has already scored 21 points in the halftime. This is about to explode. Adams' pick-and-roll defense is too poor."

"The thunder is going to hang today."

After Donovan arranged the main points of the second half, the players took a rest.

Li Haoyu walked up to Noelle and said to him:

"I'm sorry, I mistook you for Grant in the previous rebound."

Noelle was puzzled at first, but after thinking for a while, he realized that he punched Li Haoyu in the chest with a smile, and said:

"I have long forgotten, it's okay, we are a team!"

Seeing that the matter had been discussed, Li Haoyu let go of a stone in his heart, but another matter made Li Haoyu frown.

Owen has already scored 21 points in the first half, and Li Haoyu only has 14 points so far, not to mention that Irving's playing time in the second half will far exceed his own.

Westbrook's physical condition is sufficient to limit Irving, but he will not defend with all his strength.

Li Haoyu also thought about applying to Donovan to defend Owen, trying to prevent Owen from receiving the ball. Although Owen has no physical advantage against him and cannot force the ball, Owen's speed is enough to drink a pot by himself.

What's more, if all the physical strength is used for defense, if you don't have the energy to attack, you still can't surpass Irving.

"There's a lot of pressure to score."

Li Haoyu sighed helplessly.

The rest time passed quickly, and the third quarter began.

The main lineups of both sides returned to the court. George's shooting touch on the Thunder's side has declined, and the defensive strength has not improved.

The Celtics took advantage of Adams' inability to defend against pick-and-rolls, and Tatum also began to play.

3分25秒时，比分来到77比68，雷霆落后9分。

Owen has scored 28 points.

Donovan requested a timeout.

Pulling Li Haoyu in front of him, he said: "I want you to let go and attack!"

Li Haoyu nodded, even if Donovan didn't say this sentence, he still wanted to fight.

Li Haoyu walked towards the technology table with his arms crossed.

Tencent commentary seat.

Ke Fan: "Thunder's offense has been unable to open up the situation in the third quarter. Can Li Haoyu save the situation?"

Su Qun: "Let's wait and see."

Thunder attack.

Li Haoyu fell 45 degrees to the right.

Schroder handed the ball to Patterson at the free throw line and ran to Li Haoyu to cover.

Li Haoyu was full of details, and ran to the free throw line next to Schroeder.

Smart, who was defending Li Haoyu, confronted Schroeder with all his strength at the moment he was blocked by Schroeder.

Schroeder couldn't stand the resistance, and his body shook a little.

Smart seized the moment and squeezed past.

This is also the reason why there are very few small players on the court to do screens. There is insufficient confrontation and the quality of screens is not good.

Although Smart was half a step slower, he was still able to keep up.

Li Haoyu also knew this. When passing the free throw line, he didn't catch the ball from Patterson. At this time, the ball might be destroyed by Smart.

With the help of Patterson's cover, Li Haoyu ran to the basket.

Smart saw that there was a screen ahead and chose to go around Patterson from the left.

Patterson loudly reminded Li Haoyu who couldn't see behind him:

"left!"

Li Haoyu braked instantly, changed direction and ran 30 degrees to the right.

Smart couldn't catch up, so he could only watch Li Haoyu receive the pass from Patterson at 30 degrees and make a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

The basketball passed through the heart cleanly, and Li Haoyu scored another three points.

77:71.

Except for Morris and Rochelle, who serve from the baseline, the Celtics all ran to the frontcourt.

The Thunder didn't all retreat.

Ferguson interferes with Morris' serve.

Li Haoyu and Schroeder watched Rozier, Morris looked forward, and the lob was at risk of being intercepted by Patterson on the center line and Noelle in the frontcourt.

Morris hesitated, not knowing where to send the ball.

"Drip~"

The Celtics violated the five-second serve and the Thunder won the ball.

"Great job!" Li Haoyu applauded his teammates for their concerted defense.

This kind of concerted defense makes Li Haoyu's blood boil, and he likes this feeling.

The berserk Li Haoyu remembered a line from Mailin Gunner Tristana.

"I want to shoot something!"

Thunder sideline.

With the help of a screen, Li Haoyu bounced from the free throw line to a position two steps beyond the left three-point line.

Ferguson passes the ball.

After Li Haoyu received the ball, he jumped up vigorously, his waist and abdomen exerted strength at the same time, and when he reached the highest point, the ball also pulled out his wrist.

After the shot, Li Haoyu didn't even look at it, he turned around and walked towards the backcourt arrogantly.

The audience was amazed at how Li Haoyu, who usually plays very reasonably, would do such a thing.

TNT commentary seats.

O'Neal: "What's he doing?"

Barkley: "Did he think he was Curry?"

"Shu~"

The crisp sound of the goal made the audience burst into shouts of mountains and tsunami!
77:74.

Li Haoyu played for 25 seconds, scored two three-pointers in a row, and instantly recovered the point difference to one possession.

The photographer captured the photo of Li Haoyu walking to the backcourt alone while everyone was watching the basketball flying in the air.

O'Neill: "Shit, how can Li Haoyu hit such a long three-pointer, I have never seen him appear in any area."

Barkley: "His desire to attack today is too strong."

Westbrook off the court was also stunned by Li Haoyu's ball.

"wtf, is this still our Lee?"

George: "Li Haoyu is too confident!"

Westbrook: "Did he steal my shooting bag? No wonder I can't make three-pointers now."

George: "...Your shot is reckless, look at his shot, it is elegant like an artist."

Westbrook: "I have always felt that my shooting is quite elegant!"

George: .
The Celtics attack, Tatum is still on the court, receiving the ball on the wing.

It failed to force Ferguson, and the layup was interfered.

Noelle takes the rebound.

Thunder attack.

After Li Haoyu gave Noelle a few words, he ran to the frontcourt and landed in the position where he just made a super long three-pointer.

Li Haoyu reached out to Schroeder for a basketball.

Facing Smart who was stepping on the three-point line to defend, Li Haoyu got up after lowering his center of gravity, looked up at the frame, and raised the basketball at the same time.

Smart was stunned by Li Haoyu's confident ultra-long three-pointer just now, and he must not let him take the ball again, so he rushed forward with all his strength.

Seeing Smart rushing, Li Haoyu immediately passed the ball to Schroeder at the top of the arc.

Cutting from the wing to the basket, Schroeder passed the ball when Li Haoyu reached one step inside the three-point line.

Li Haoyu received the ball, and Morris on the inside was firmly blocked by Noelle, which was explained by Li Haoyu before.

Facing the defenseless basket, Li Haoyu jumped up vigorously and smashed the ball into the basket.

"boom!"

77:76.

Li Haoyu scored 8 points in a row, so far, he has scored 22 points.
