Chapter 258 Perfect, Unexpected
The game was just as everyone had guessed, at least in the first quarter. For the core of these two teams, the two three-pointers that made the audience boil just now were just their appetizers dish, the next two people pushed the atmosphere of this game to a higher position.
After the two three-pointers, the two sides watched the opponent's explosive point more closely. Double-teaming and assist defense simply appeared on the faces of the two of them. In order to prevent them, both sides did everything possible. .
The offensive firepower of the two teams is shared by their players, but under the fiery touch of the two of them, the feeling of their teammates seems to be deprived.
The open three-pointer after Chris Paul's single block was missed!
Russell Westbrook's breakthrough layup was interfered by Jordan Jr.!
Blake Griffin's magical mid-range shot during training these days is also a miss!He shook his head without making a shot, not very satisfied with his shot.
After 6:6, the two sides did not score for 5 consecutive rounds. In that round just now, Kevin Durant had already run out of a very good position. Anson failed to keep up at the first time, but Russell Westbrook did not choose to pass the ball, but a one-on-one to end. This time he chose a long shot, but Chris Paul's defense did not lose his position.
Kevin Durant frowned, didn't say anything, but ran back by himself.
The Clippers played more reasonably than the Thunder. Chris Paul felt good in the first two games, and he is also a guard with good shooting ability. Otherwise, how could his height of 183cm be in the third season of his career Just play the data of 20+10.
But when he came to Oklahoma City, he seemed to be sealed. In the last game, training, and this game, his shots were not very ideal, so he was not in a hurry to make a shot.
Instead, it was given to Jason Richardson. In a game, he was the only outside shooter in the entire Clippers who still maintained a normal level of outside shooting.
Of course, the Thunder also understood this. Jason Richardson, who had just received the ball, was immediately targeted. He did not force a shot, but directly completed the transfer of the ball immediately.
Anson caught the ball at the top of the arc, stepped past Kevin Durant after the three-threat, and then hit a mid-range shot.
The Clippers completed a key overtake, and the Thunder's offense pushed to the other side.Kevin Durant has a much harder time catching the ball than when Anson did.
"Pass the ball, Russell, don't you give the ball to Kevin? His fiery touch has to wait until it completely cools down." Charles Barkley on the commentary saw Russell Westbrook because He has been in the hands for seven or eight seconds and has not been transferred to Kevin Durant. He is aggressive and has excellent breakthrough ability, but his style of playing too sticky to the ball also has great damage to the team.
In the last 5 seconds, running, catching the ball, dribbling away from An Sheng's defense and then shooting directly, the ball scored, and the score came to 8:8, even though it was only a few seconds, even if the best defense stood in front of him Player An Sheng, but he couldn't stop the scoring champion when he was overwhelmed.
At 27:22, after the first quarter, the Clippers took a slight lead with Jason Richardson's shooting. Anson made 7 of 6 shots and scored 27 of 16 points, while Kevin Du Rand was even more exaggerated. He scored 22 of the Thunder's 19 points in the first quarter and hit 9 of 7 shots against Anson's defense.
It seems that there is a little coincidence. The three top small forwards in the league seem to be planning to break out in the semifinals of this division. An Sheng and Kevin Durant's mutual explosion in the first quarter has already been seen tonight. The offensive touch of both players is very good, but unfortunately, only one of these two can win today's victory.
"I don't think it's a sad thing not to see LeBron's performance, because if I go to Indiana tonight, then I may miss a better game." Shaquille O'Neal doesn't dislike Oklahoma as a small city at all, and doesn't miss his former teammates LeBron James and Dwyane Wade at all.
Although both of them are very good tonight, but he is on the first team every year. How can An Sheng and Kevin Durant score so well against each other now? Without a top-level supporting role, naturally it is not so capable Highlight the greatness of the protagonist.
In the second quarter, the two small forwards who gave the fans a magical performance in the first quarter took a break at the beginning and gave the stage to others.
Compared with the performance just now, the performance of the two teams in the second quarter was not as hot as it was at the beginning, and it didn't make the Thunder fans feel like they wanted to stand up and roar.
Especially the Thunder, which was already a little behind, did not perform as well as they imagined without Kevin Durant on the court. James Harden's playing did not perfectly replace Kevin Durant As a result, he did not achieve the excellent field control ability like Chris Paul, and the Thunder team, which was already behind, fell behind even more in the first few minutes of the second quarter.
"Scott should think of a way to get Kevin up quickly. Russell should also strengthen his long-range shots this offseason. Facing this Clippers team, his biggest reliance is that sharp breakthrough. It's completely gone."
"In the last round against the Nuggets, he averaged 25.3 points per game. We are still talking about the rise of a top guard. In this round of the series, he dropped directly to 18.7 points and his shooting percentage dropped to about 40%."
The score was slowly stretched to about 10 points. For such two strong teams, the 10-point difference is already a relatively large gap for them, and this gap made Stutt Brooks a little bit sitting down. Can't stop.
When he directly wanted to replace Kevin Durant, an accident happened on the court. Chris Paul accidentally stepped on James Harden's foot during a breakthrough and fell directly to the ground.
This scene directly made the Clippers off the court panic. Chris Paul, the team commander, wanted to continue fighting but didn't stand up all of a sudden. This moment made Del Negro suddenly My heart is shaking, this is not the regular season, but the playoffs that must be competed in every game!
