Chapter 236 Renewal Issues
After watching the game between the Grizzlies and the Lakers, Presti began to wait for the game between the Thunder and the Kings!
Presti knew that the final team with the Hornets in the Western Conference Finals would be the Thunder!Therefore, he also wanted to see what changes the Thunder had undergone under the leadership of Brooks.

The series between the Thunder and the Kings has come to 3:0!As long as the king loses this game today, he will go home!Of course, Ranadive and Anjali have asked tactical questions more than once, how to deal with the Thunder, but Presti can only help, because even if he brings the king, he is definitely not the opponent of the Thunder!
The game started soon, and Cousins ​​dunked consecutively at the basket at the beginning of the first quarter to help the Lakers take the lead!

The Thunder relied on Westbrook and Durant to score in the paint to respond!The king took the initiative with a better start, and Cousins ​​then scored a three-pointer to help the Kings play a 13-6 offensive to get a 7-point lead!
Durant's three-pointer at the end helped the Thunder catch up to the score, but DeRozan responded with a mid-range shot. In the final duel, the King relied on a steady offensive to resist the Thunder's counterattack. DeRozan scored 5 points at the last moment, and the Kings led the Thunder 31-25 to end the first quarter!
Although the Kings took the lead in the first quarter, Presti knew that when he entered the rotation lineup, the Thunder would rule the world!
Sure enough, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Thunder's bench lineup took the lead!

Harden and Gibson scored one after another, while Westbrook and Ibaka scored three points from the outside!The Thunder broke the opening wave of 12-1 offensive and quickly reversed the situation!
At this time, the king replaced Isaiah Thomas after a timeout, "The strongest 175!"

"You really dare to go up," Presti said silently. There was nothing wrong with Thomas Jr.'s offense, but his defense was simply "thousands of people!"

Thomas Jr.'s three-pointer helped the Kings stop the bleeding, but their overall offense and defense were completely defeated!
In the final stage, the Thunder once again showed strong firepower. Westbrook hit two three-pointers and a 2+1!Thomas Jr. was completely crushed against Westbrook!

The Thunder sent another 13-6 offensive at the end to continue to expand their lead!
Cousins ​​hit a key three-pointer at the end, but the Thunder was still unreasonable. Ibaka quickly responded with a three-pointer to keep the lead. After halftime, the Thunder led the Kings 53-43 to end the first half!
At the beginning of the second half, the Thunder completely took over the game in this quarter. Durant scored a three-pointer shortly after the start, and Westbrook also rushed to the basket and made a strong hit!Ibaka also hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner!And the King only had DeRozan hit a mid-range shot!The Thunder started with a 7-2 spurt and continued to expand their lead!

The Kings relied on Cousins' paint scoring and DeRozan's mid-range shooting to stop the bleeding!

But the Thunder went on the offensive again after resisting the King's few balls!
Wu Durant scored consecutive points unstoppably!Ibaka soared three-pointers from the outside, and Westbrook even made frequent layups inside!And Jordan Jr. also made a pass inside Westbrook's inside pass, and the Thunder sent another wave of 19-7 offensive to open the score!

With Wu Durant hitting the board again, the Thunder extended their lead to 20 points.Cousins' three-pointer and Evans' free throw at the end helped the Lakers stop the bleeding slightly.After three quarters, the Thunder led 100-81 by 19 points!
In the last 12 minutes of competition, the king obviously did not give up. After all, if they lose this game, they will go home completely!
Cousins, who was in a stable state, took the lead in hitting a three-pointer for the Kings, and DeRozan scored 4 points relying on free throws and jumpers. The Kings caught up with the score with an excellent start!
Although the Thunder does not have the overall advantage, they can also fight back!After all, there are counterattack monsters like Westbrook!

Westbrook's dunks and free throws at the beginning kept the Thunder ahead!And Durant's mid-range shots are also hits frequently!Harden even scored 5 points with penalty shots!
In this wave of attack, the king finally found the feeling. DeRozan continued his state and scored 6 points. Francisco Garcia also scored 5 points as a surprise player. With a wave of 15-4 offensive, the king chased the point difference to 10 points and saw hope!
However, in the face of the Lakers' fierce counterattack, the Thunder relied on Westbrook and Durant's performance of scoring 8 points in a row to stabilize the situation!
Afterwards, although the Kings still struggled to catch up, the point difference was too large, and the Thunder did not give their opponent another chance!
In the end, the Thunder defeated the Kings 110-97 to win the game!In the series between the Thunder and the Kings, the Thunder swept the Kings 4:0 and advanced!
In this way, two teams in the West have already advanced!
Not long after the Thunder game ended, Presti's phone rang!

Presti saw that it was Harden calling!

As soon as he answered, he immediately heard Harden's laughter: "Coach, we advanced 4:0! Haha"

"I watched the live broadcast! Congratulations," Presti congratulated.

"Coach, who do you think our next opponent will be? The Spurs or the Clippers?" Harden asked curiously.

"Spurs!" Presti affirmed.

"Haha, I also think it's the Spurs, that guy Gibson must tell me about the Clippers!" Harden responded.

"By the way, what do you think about your contract?" Presti suddenly thought of a key question and asked immediately.

"Not yet, but I...I want to get more money!" Harden said shyly.

"Haha, why are you still coy, you deserve it!" Presti laughed, and then said: "It's about how much, I'll talk to you!"

At this time, Presti was already thinking about the past life, and the detonator in the previous life traded Harden away after the end of this season!And this transaction has become a joke for everyone to laugh at the detonator!
Harden thought for a while and said, "I want to get a four-year contract of 4 million yuan!"

"Is that really the case?" Presti secretly thought, it seems that some things are the same in the past life and the present life!

Presti smiled and said, "Okay, leave it to me!"

"Thank you coach`!" Harden immediately thanked.

Presti, who put down the phone, suddenly thought that his own Curry seemed to have not signed the contract yet!Thinking of this, Presti immediately called Curry!

As soon as he answered, Curry said in surprise: "The coach is resting now, you decide it yourself! You won't let me go to training again!"

"No..." Presti said helplessly, it seems that he has complaints about himself!
"Haha, it's fine if you don't! What's the matter with the coach?" Curry laughed.

"Here's the money for you. Have you thought about the contract for next year?" Presti asked with a smile.

"How much do you give me, coach?" Curry said after being silent for a while, because he suddenly discovered that Presti was his coach, his boss, or his agent... What else can I say?
"How much do you want?" Presti decided to tease Curry!
"Well, you decide, you pulled me out of the abyss, I'm willing to give as much as you want!" Curry said with a smile.

"Maximum salary," Presti said slowly.

Curry was silent, and said for a long time: "Thank you!"
