Like last season, the Thunder ended their first month on a winning streak.At the same time, the Thunder also firmly sit at the top of the Western Conference with their six-game winning streak.
The performance of the Thunder's three core players has also performed quite well during this period of time.
After averaging a triple-double last season, Westbrook seems to like it.After six games, he averaged 18.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 12 assists per game. Looking at it like this, it is likely to be another triple-double season.
The Thunder's most stable scoring point, without Oladipo's competition, has more opportunities.In these six games, he was able to average 25.5 points, 1.5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2.8 steals per game.Ranked No.11 in the league in scoring and second in the league in steals.
用奥拉迪波和小萨博尼斯交易过来的保罗·乔治虽然低迷了一场,但是整体还是相当出色的。场均24分5.5篮板4.8助攻1.2盖帽3抢断。攻防两端都表现得非常的强势。
In addition to the lack of thickness of the bench, this Thunder currently has a top three presence in the league on both offense and defense.In terms of three-pointers, An Luo averaged 4.5 three-pointers per game, Paul George 3.2, and Westbrook 1.5.With an average of nearly 110 points per game, no team can withstand the offense of such a team.
Even more terrifying is their defense!The Thunder accounted for 2 players with more than 3 steals per game, and 7 players with more than one steal!The defense line composed of Robertson, Paul George, and An Luo, whoever comes will take off his skin.Such a group of excellent single-defense players were integrated into Donovan's infinite switch defense tactics, which kept their average conceded points below 95 points per game.
The Thunder, both offensive and defensive, has been hailed as the biggest opponent of the Warriors defending this season.The threat is even higher than that of knights!This means that if the Thunder can pull down the Warriors in the playoffs, then their chances of winning the championship are quite high.
Entering November, the Thunder is still unstoppable.
In the first game against the Bucks, they were very easy."Antetokounmpo" turned out this season. As the most improved player last season, he has grown into one of the most dazzling players in the league this season.He has a super long wingspan, can be inside and out, and has indeed caused trouble for many teams.But the trouble with the Bucks is that apart from him, there are no good support points.And today they lost the general Monroe, which made "Brother Antetokounmpo" cut off his arm.The Thunder strictly prevented "Antetokounmpo" from letting him go to the basket easily, and achieved good results.
Then they returned to Oklahoma, ushered in the challenge of the Celtics.
This season the Celtics are lucky, but also very unfortunate.As last year's Western Conference Finals team, they won the championship sign.After the trade with the 76ers, the extremely talented Tatum was selected with the No. [-] pick.Then Irving was traded for Thomas Jr., and Hayward was acquired from the Jazz.It can be seen from this operation that they are not satisfied with only entering the Western Conference Finals.As a veteran giant, the championship is what they pursue.
But the sky failed.The Celtics lost general Gordon Hayward in the opener and then lost two games in a row.Owen, who has high hopes, does not seem to have the ability to lead the team like Thomas Jr.Although a wave of seven consecutive victories boosted morale, but this game encountered the Thunder, they fought hard for four quarters, and finally lost with regret.
The Thunder's strong firepower made the Celtics unable to defend.Most of all, Irving and Horford played well enough, but they still failed to successfully reverse.
Then, they beat the Trail Blazers strongly in Portland.Under the tandem of Westbrook's 18 assists, Paul George's 33 points and An Luo's 30 points overshadowed Lillard.Although he scored a game-high 36 points, Director Li seemed to have forgotten to bring his watch in this game!
Then, the Thunder beat the Kings away.What's funny is that after the entire first quarter, the King's starting five didn't score a single point.
At this point, the Thunder had won ten consecutive victories!It's the league's longest winning streak and the only team so far without a loss.
But then, they ran into trouble in Denver.
When they came to the plateau, Thunder played very hard.Paul George was in good form after the start, scoring 7 points in a row and leading the team to a 7:2.In less than 4 minutes of this quarter, he has already scored 10 points, but Westbrook is in a mediocre state, even being blocked for dunks.However, driven by Pickled Pepper and An Luo, the Thunder still had a slight advantage at 53:52 after two quarters.
The two teams still played inextricably in the second half, and drew several times in the third quarter.With 1 minute and 07 seconds left in this section, Patterson made a three-pointer and the Thunder took a 75:71 lead.But Barton made two breakthrough layups in a row, and the two sides entered the final quarter with 75:75.Westbrook still failed to regain his form in the last quarter, and his teammates' shooting percentage also dropped. The Thunder played more and more difficultly, and fell behind 86:91 at one point.
Donovan quickly paused. Instead of telling the players how to improve their offense, he emphasized how to defend the opponent.He put his hope of scoring on An Luo.
After some points, the Thunder increased their defensive strength.Under such a defense, the Nuggets' offense also began to have problems.At this time, An Luo started to score.He has been that consistent scoring point.So is this game.After hitting two consecutive three-pointers, he used his containment effect to attract offers and then assisted Westbrook to score a layup.After a wave of 8:0, the Thunder regained the advantage.
In the last few minutes, the Thunder did not give the opponent another chance.After the ball was concentrated in An Luo's hands, coupled with Paul George's restraint, Westbrook's air cut played a huge role.In the end, the Thunder defeated the Nuggets with difficulty.Extended his winning streak to eleven games.And, after leaving Denver and returning to Oklahoma City, the Thunder extended that number to [-] games at home.Break the original longest winning streak record in one fell swoop!
120:103战胜洛杉矶快船、118:98战胜达拉斯小牛、100:79战胜芝加哥公牛,连续三场赢了58分!这些球队甚至都没有给雷霆带来一丁点儿麻烦。
In the past half a month, the Thunder has become the team that people pay the most attention to.Of course, the point of focus is a little bit biased, almost everyone wants to see who can end their winning streak.It is a pity that during this period of time, Thunderclap has not encountered a particularly strong opponent.
But next, they will challenge the Spurs away.As the sufferer of last season, the Thunder naturally held their breath.
