Chapter 383 Personal Performance and Winning

In overtime, the Thunder got the chance to attack first. Just like at the beginning, they planned to change the rhythm, and Westbrook handed the ball to the inside.

Adams turned to hit the board, but was interfered by Draymond Green.

Zhang Xiaotian grabbed the rebound and counterattacked directly, but Durant quickly returned to the defense, but he couldn't keep up.

Zhang Xiaotian dribbled the ball to a place more than one step away from the three-point line, and suddenly pulled it up.

A three-pointer was hit, and the Thunder fans in the audience were silent. Why is this person more Curry than Curry.

During the Thunder's attack, Durant wanted to fight back, but his body couldn't keep up.

Durant hit the iron, Zhang Xiaotian grabbed the rebound again, and then launched a counterattack.

No way, when Zhang Xiaotian pulled up from outside the three-point line again, the Thunder soldiers were amazed in their hearts, but the goal was scored again.

There was a timeout at the beginning. Coach Donovan hesitated, and Westbrook hit another iron. Then Curry hit a three-pointer during the Warriors' offense, and the hearts of everyone in the Thunder went cold.

Then Durant and Westbrook both hit two points, but it was too late.

The Warriors firmly grasped the situation and won the first game of the Western Conference Finals at 121:112.

With 33 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, Zhang Xiaotian scored the highest score in the game, and the Warriors had the highest rebounds. Letting him take responsibility in the final quarter is definitely the right choice for the Warriors.

In the game, the confrontation between the two sides was very fierce.

When Zhang Xiaotian was asked by the reporter, his tone was understated, "Now, the time has come for you to be knocked down, but in the face of this predicament, you have to find a way to cheer up and make a strong response."

On the Thunder side, Westbrook said, "We are a little anxious, we always want to play a home run-like performance...but this will be a long series, and we still have a chance to reverse the score. Shows that inner toughness, and it's going to be fun."

Durant also agreed, "Our defense is actually good. We just missed some shots and played a little too fast. We need to be more calm and patient... As for the Warriors, they did better, and this Forced guys to make some tough shots as well."

Cole looked relaxed, "We played very hard on the defensive end, especially Zhang, he did everything I asked before the game, and the others did a good job... At the same time, we can also achieve the desired results on the offensive end. "

Zhang Xiaotian finally pretended: "This is just a very cheap home victory in the playoffs. Our goal is the championship. We still have many games to play. As far as this series is concerned, they still need to win three games." .”

Compared with the fierceness of the Western Conference Finals, in the first game between the Cavaliers and the Raptors, the Cavaliers won a lot easier.

The Cavaliers swept the first two rounds, and the Raptors struggled to pass after two tie-breaks. Lowry and others entered the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time.The Cavaliers rested for nine full days, while the Raptors only rested for one day.

The Cavaliers completely controlled the rhythm at the beginning of the game, and they gained an absolute advantage in the second quarter.

In the third quarter, the main force of the Cavaliers clocked out of get off work, and they also beat the Raptors by 31 points.

After the game, James pretended: "I don't think we have a big advantage. We go all out in the game. This is the key to winning. This is also my attitude in every game."

The next day was the second game, and the atmosphere in the Western Conference Finals was completely different.

Zhang Xiaotian's life is more self-disciplined than before, and he is in the best condition.

The result of the last game was good, but he can't slack off. A player of Durant's level will definitely make adjustments. Winning the Warriors in the first game actually added some luck.

On May 5th, Game 18 of the Western Conference Finals was still held in the Oakland Arena, and the fans cheered like a wave. The Warriors fans this season are happy, and they are especially eager for a perfect ending.

As soon as the game started, the Warriors made a three-pointer.

At home, Curry and Klay Thompson are better at conditioning.

The Thunder originally planned to be more prudent, but when the Warriors were directly firing at full power, the two young men didn't care about it and went all out.

Especially Durant, if he was still a little beaten in the first half of the previous game, Durant directly showed his strongest state this time.

So strong, even though Zhang Xiaotian looked back at the video during the break and thought about the details of defending Durant a lot, but it was completely different when he was actually on the court.

The more intense the physical confrontation, the better, but Durant is really a bug in terms of height.

Zhang Xiaotian is a master who is not afraid of hard work, and Durant is also enthusiastic when he is enthusiastic.

Anyway, he is not the core of the team, he is so self-willed, it is no problem to focus on defense.

In the first quarter, Durant's shooting rate was still a bit unstable, but after 2 minutes of rest, Durant completely adjusted to the killing mode.

Hitting Zhang Xiaotian on the head continuously, let people know what a top all-star is.

Every time Zhang Xiaotian sums up the problem of defense, as long as he reacts a little faster, as long as his judgment is more accurate, and as long as he jumps two centimeters higher, he can definitely interfere with the opponent.

Analyzing the habits of the opposing players, he was very proficient when he was playing amateur basketball. Now it is just that the opponent is a little stronger, but he is also stronger. As long as he is given a little more time, he can definitely do it.

Will it give him time? The answer is yes.

In this game, the Warriors not only have four All-Stars, but their bench team also performed very well.

On the Thunder's side, Durant performed brilliantly, but he was the only one.

Durant scored 16 points in the second quarter and 23 points in the half, completely suppressing Zhang Xiaotian.

However, the Thunder fell behind.

During the intermission, Cole was afraid that Zhang Xiaotian would not be able to figure it out, so he praised him for a good job.

In fact, Zhang Xiaotian didn't have time to be depressed at all. He was always thinking about how to strangle Durant to death, and he didn't even think about the situation that the final quarter would improve his strength.

Overcoming difficulties and defeating opponents is Zhang Xiaotian's philosophy.

Even if he is pressed and beaten, he will continue to challenge until he catches the opponent's weak link and recovers it.

It's just that I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly. Durant fought too hard in the first half, and it felt obviously wrong in the third quarter.

Before the Thunder could adjust, Curry exploded.

Curry is also a bit aggrieved by winning these days. First, he was injured and unable to play for several games, and then he was robbed of the limelight by Zhang Xiaotian. You must know that the Warriors are his team.

With 17 points in a single quarter, the Warriors extended their lead to 20 points under Curry's outburst.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhang Xiaotian rushed into the Thunder inside and dunked, and the last trace of depression was vented.

Then he caused Durant to make mistakes in defense. After Durant missed a three-pointer, the Thunder also lost confidence in winning the game.

Soon, the two sides replaced the bench lineup, and the Warriors once again defended the home court.
