Chapter 126 Pit Me Again

As a result, Paul made a quick push to Belinelli at the top of the arc on the right,

Belinelli's heavy artillery fires! 9:0
Beep, David Blunt called timeout again!
Presti circled around, looking at the fans who were still standing, feeling a little distressed, these guys really thought they were still there.

"Why are you still throwing it like this? Did David Blunt pause just now to imitate Presti and call a timeout? But it was also a timeout for the first few seconds." Reggie Miller was a little speechless.

"Whether you believe it or not, anyway, I don't believe that David Blunt arranged it like this just now." Steve Kerr said with a smile.

After a few minutes, the timeout ends and the game continues!

Perhaps aware of the fact that the fans were still standing, Westbrook held the ball to the top of the arc to face Belinelli, and Jordan stepped forward to pick and roll!

Suddenly start to rush into the inside line!Little Jordan down!
Throw high in the air!

Jordan jumped up and dunked in the air! At 9:2, the fans at the scene finally sat down.

"WOW! The cooperation between Jordan and Westbrook is more tacit. If the Thunder play like this, the Hornets basically have no chance of winning." Reggie Miller said with a smile.

The Hornets attacked, and the ball was still handed over to Paul.

Teammates pulled away, Paul singled out Curry, crossed continuously to the right, made an emergency stop and made a jumper.This position is Paul's killer position. Curry was shaken half of his body and could only watch the ball score. 11:2.

Here Curry faces Paul with the ball, crossovers in a row, and accelerates to get in!

Paul followed Curry tightly!Did not shake off!

Presti nodded, and had to admit that Paul's defense is indeed very good.

Distribute Westbrook immediately!
Westbrook, who got the ball, didn't care about anything else, went straight to the inside, and relied on Okafor for a tough layup!
Beep!Okafor thug foul, 2+1
Snapped!Snapped!The fans at the scene began to applaud frantically. After being held back for several minutes, they finally found a chance to release.

Westbrook made a free throw 11:5
Paul continued to hold the ball to the top of the arc, did not call a screen, pulled away, and singled out Curry with the ball again. This time, Curry had experience and deliberately stuck on the left breakthrough route, forcing Paul to the right.

Paul easily passed Curry, Durant let go of George and rushed over, Curry chased again, and the two immediately double-teamed Paul.

Stop the ball!I can only vote!

Jump shot!After Durant's long arm interfered and missed, the ball was taken by Jordan!Pass it to Westbrook who is about to play,

Westbrook made a slight change of direction, easily passed Belinelli and entered the penalty area!
Attracted George's defense!

Throw the ball to the backboard!
Ibaka, who followed up, flew up to grab the ball and smashed it into the basket!
11:7
The fans at the scene were boiling, this kind of fast break dunk is so cool!
"After all, it is a championship team. Even if it suffers from the front, it can quickly adjust back. The Thunder will play their own rhythm. If the Hornets don't pause, they will be hit by a wave." Steve Kerr looked at Reggie Miller and said.

"Oh, obviously there is a best coach sitting in the seat, but he is coached by a European coach who has never coached an NBA team. It's really difficult to watch. I don't know if I can see Presti coaching in the future." Reggie Miller sighed.

"Haha, it's hard to say, Presti is not such a idle person, but after all, he is the boss, so you have to pay attention to your image," Reggie Miller laughed.

After Paul held the ball to the top of the arc, the Hornets called a timeout.

"David Blunt." Presti was speechless. This starting lineup is very similar to the Thunder. Even if they lose, they should play their own style. There is no tactic at all.

After a few minutes, the pause ends,
Paul continued to hold the ball to the top of the arc!David West stepped forward to cover!
Paul uses a screen to get inside!
Ibaka subconsciously double-teams in the past!
The ball was immediately distributed to David West who moved laterally!
The most comfortable position in the cast!
Go in!

Thunder is here too!

Curry uses Ibaka to go inside!

David West packs in!

The ball is given to the open Ibaka

Catch the ball and hit it!

"Wow, the same style of play, don't say that the Hornets lineup is really similar to the Thunder, although the Hornets are weaker in other positions except for the position of ball control and power forward," Steve Kerr said after seeing the two identical tactics.

Towards the end, Paul performed the final attack, pressing the time and directly hitting a three-pointer in the middle.

At the end of the first quarter, the Hornets lead the Thunder by 4 points!
In the second quarter, Williams sent a three-back combination of Jack, Marcus Banks, and Willie Green, with David Anderson and Keeson Smith inside.

And the Thunder is on the lineup, Harden, Matthews, Jeff Green, Gibson, Collison.

Presti looked at the Thunder's bench lineup, and sighed in his heart: "This is better than the starters of many teams. What kind of terrifying lineup did I form at the time?"

The Thunder's lineup fielded four three-pointers. Harden attacked with the ball in the middle, and Gibson and Collison covered on both sides to help Matthews and Jeff Green run along the three-point line to catch the ball and shoot.

Collison cuts to the basket after the screen, and Gibson waits for the pass to shoot.

The Hornets can be said to have nothing to do with this lineup, and they dare not double-team anyone, but they can't defend against 1-on-1 without double-teaming.

On the offensive end, the Hornets are also struggling.

Once the Thunder encountered a breakthrough, they decisively shrunk their formation. The Hornets outside Jack, Willie Green, and Marcus Banks were unable to open the situation. Inside Smith was resisted by Collison, while Anderson was stuck by Gibson.

The Hornets' outside threat is too small, and only Willie Green can see it from the bench. Banks' three-pointers are only 29.4%
Paul only rested for 2 minutes before returning to the court to bring a substitute, but he still couldn't lead the team to recover the score. When the Thunder came back from the starting lineup, the Hornets couldn't stand it anymore.

At the end of the second quarter, they were 17 points behind.

As soon as the third quarter started, the Thunder's offensive became more rapid. After 3 minutes, the lead had reached 23 points!
The big picture is set!

Presti looked at Williams next to him and was even speechless. Bradley, such a useful guard, had no chance to play. Whiteside watched helplessly as his own inside line was abused by Jordan and Ibaka.

Presti simply closed his eyes and stopped looking.

At this moment, the voice of the Thunder fans came from behind: "Presti sell your weak Hornets, there is no future, continue to come to the Thunder to win the championship."

"The Hornets are weak, even you can't win the championship, go back to the Thunder"

Presti opened his eyes, turned around and cast a contemptuous look: I'm too lazy to leave you, if there are system tasks, I won't beat you to death.

"Ding, whether it is a player or a coach, how can you be timid when facing your old club? Even if you lose, you must lose with dignity.

Ding, if you lose the game and the score difference is within 3 points, you will be rewarded with 100 Legendary Coins, otherwise you will be deducted 300 Legendary Coins,
Ding, if you beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, you will be rewarded with 300 legendary coins."

The sound of the system was so ear-piercing that Presti was stunned for a moment, "Bah! Bah! Bah!" Presti patted his mouth, why did his mouth have to be so "cheap" and why did he mention the system? Now it's all right, if you don't win, you have to win, but how can you win against the Thunder with a 23-point difference?
