Chapter 767 Clippers VS Thunder
The Celtics' game once again let everyone see their amazing talent.

A group of young people who dare to fight and fight hard, coupled with a head coach who does not follow the rules, this kind of cooperation is really surprising.

If you think back to the time when Qin Tao first joined, perhaps replaced by an experienced coach, the final result is still uncertain.

What's especially rare is that their current chemistry is very good.

A team with only one core and most of the rest are role players can achieve such results, which has fully demonstrated a problem. It is time for the NBA to change.

On top of the changes made by the Celtics, other teams naturally started to study it.

Some of them failed to enter the playoffs, or are in the playoffs, but the teams that need to change have already begun to consider their playing style and lineup structure for next season.

Because they saw the infinite possibilities of a small lineup from the Celtics.

But if they want to hit what the Celtics have now, they need a lot of data and stars to complete.

Without him!

Because the Celtics have such a "wonderful" Qin Tao.

If you want to find exactly the same players in the league, you may not have them, but if you want to find players with similar functions, you can find some.

Such and such.

Maybe after this year's offseason, the entire free market is bound to be hit by waves.

And the Celtics, who won the game away, don't have any pride at all.

This is the first game of their second-round series. Even if they can win the away game, it will greatly improve their self-confidence, but as long as there is any complacency, it is not good for others to beat them 4:1 .

after the game.

Many media have asked Stevens about the layout and ideas of this game.

This young marshal is also a wonderful person, he didn't show any tricks, and he didn't hide anything. He basically said exactly what Qin Tao told O'Neill before.

The media are quite satisfied with Stevens' explanation.

After all, the point that can make the biggest news in this game is the formation of the Celtics in this game.

If you say why didn't they go to the Pacers?
Then you have to ask whose home is here.

After the meeting after the match, Qin Tao and the others rushed back to the hotel without stopping.

They did not choose to rest, but gathered in the multimedia room, ordered some drinks and food, and waited for the start of the next game.

It's not just them alone on this day, but it's not like the first round of the series, where there will be at least three games to play in a day.

In view of the previous arrangement of the league on the schedule, the second round of the match is still played according to the meaning of rain and dew.

After the game between the Celtics and Pacers in the East, the Clippers and Thunder in the West will follow.

The performance of these two teams this season is obvious to all, and it really makes people see the strength of the Western Conference teams.

Especially the Thunder!

Under the leadership of Durant and Westbrook, they have really played some surprising games this season.

Although the performance in the first round after entering the playoffs was not satisfactory, as the second strong team in the Western Conference, they still cannot be underestimated, and the outside world has also given them great attention and support.

As for the Clippers, this team also made a lot of adjustments last summer.

First re-sign Chris Paul, which ensures that their existing lineup can be retained.

Although they did not play very well on the defensive end, it can be said that they did not play as expected by the outside world at all, but with their offense, people are still full of expectations.

This game is the first game of their second-round series, and because of their similar situation in the first round, no one can say that they have an advantage.

After all, they have played seven games, and the rest time is the same, so the actual fight is still fair!
But the Thunder may suffer a bit in the paint.

Even if "Sea King" Steven Adams has shown the potential to start, Ibaka is still a treasure, but when facing the combination of Jordan and Griffin, they will still be under tremendous pressure.

It's simply that they still have a pair of minors on the perimeter, and with a very high shooting rate, their work is much easier.

Simultaneously.

Because of the performance of the two teams in the regular season and their playing style, the game has received a lot of attention before it even started.

Especially the media from Los Angeles.

Even though they were deep in Oklahoma, they still seemed very restless.

As the protagonists of this game, the Clippers and Thunder players are making final preparations before the game.

As the core of the two teams, Paul and Durant began to cheer for the upcoming game.

Especially Chris Paul.

When he is an important high-level player in the players' union, his eloquence will really make some people feel ashamed.

And his encouragement is very useful, making the Clippers' locker room atmosphere high-spirited.

Doc Rivers really likes guys like that!

Because of people like them, his job will be very easy.

But as a coach, he still has to emphasize something.

For example, the team's defensive requirements.

If these guys can play [-]% of the set tasks, Doug Rivers can be said to be very satisfied.

But for such arrangements and tasks, he did not hold out much hope.

Because these guys are like natural offensive players, and they show a little bit of disdain for defense.

Simply they have Jordan on the inside and a stalwart like Matt Barnes on the outside, or they will really suffer a lot defensively with this set of starters.

As the protagonists of the challenge at home, Durant and Westbrook do not want to lose this game.

The two of them boosted morale in their own way, and Westbrook's hoarse shout quickly mobilized the atmosphere in the locker room.

moment.

When the arena staff came to remind them, the players of the two teams left the locker room one after another and finally entered the stadium.

The Thunder's ball market is not ranked high in the entire NBA. If they didn't have high-quality idols like Durant and Westbrook, the ball market might be even more bleak.

However, as a fan of a team that has reached the finals, the second round can still be said to be full.

Accompanied by their cheers, players from both sides entered the players' benches one after another.

warm up.

Appearance ceremony.

The Thunder deliberately incorporated some local characteristics into it, adding a strong local flavor to the already splendid appearance.

After the referee communicated with the technical station, the competition between them officially kicked off.
