Chapter 509

In fact, before the start of the first game of the finals, the Cavaliers still had the momentum to defeat the Thunder and win the championship.After all, they went all the way to the finals without being favored by most people.And their old enemy, the Golden State Warriors, has also been eliminated by the Thunder early.But when they lost this game, the momentum almost dissipated.They have tried their best to win, especially James, but the result is sad.

Although all the Cavaliers are saying that losing a game does not affect them much, they can win it back.But there are not many people who are really optimistic about them.Judging from the performance of the second game, the Cavaliers did, as most people expected, plummet.

On June 6, the second game of the Finals between the Thunder and the Cavaliers started as scheduled at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

This game is definitely a must-win for the Thunder.As long as they successfully win the first two games, according to the current situation of both sides, they will be almost invincible.For the Cavaliers, this game is even more important!If they want to retain some hope of hitting the championship, they must grab a victory in Oklahoma.

Many people approached this game with anticipation.After all, both sides have the motivation to win, and the game should naturally be very exciting.There is nothing wrong with thinking this way, but in fact, except for the Thunder fans, everyone else is very disappointed.

In this game, the starting lineups of both sides have not changed much.

As soon as he came up, Adams played a very beautiful match with Westbrook.In the jump ball, Adams did not take the lead. TT slapped the ball to George Hill, but the latter failed to grab Westbrook.Westbrook, who controlled the ball, immediately ran towards his basket.The Cavaliers' defense was quite quick, and they all returned to their defensive area in the first time.But Adams followed, keeping Westbrook's George Hill out of the three-point line on the top left of the key.Westbrook used this cover to accelerate directly to the free throw line. TT rushed to Westbrook at the first time. Although George Hill stared at Adams, when the latter rushed up, he had nothing to do.Westbrook didn't even look back to see if Adams was following. After he rushed to the basket, he tossed the ball up and off the court.Adams, who rose up, easily received the ball and pressed it into the basket with one hand.

Then, George Hill advanced with the ball.It can be seen that in this game, the Cavaliers did increase George Hill's holding time.But holding the ball for a long time is also prone to problems.At the left three-point line, Westbrook was directly in front of him, but Hill didn't pass the ball out immediately.This gave An Luo, who was in the bottom corner from the side, an idea!He rushed over and formed a double-team with Westbrook on George Hill.

It was the first time George Hill was double-teamed in the series.This kind of defense has always been treated by James before.This made him a little flustered.When people panic, their actions can't keep up with their own thinking.An Luo, who has quick eyesight and quick hands, would miss such an opportunity, reach out from the right side, and cut the ball off.

George Hill was not reconciled to being intercepted by the opponent and fought back like this.He tried his best to keep up with An Luo, with his hands wide open, hindering the opponent's progress.However, although Hill's defense is good, he is only one person after all!An Luo rushed directly to the basket, and then passed the ball behind Westbrook.After the latter received the ball, he exerted force under his feet, and his whole body jumped up as if he was stepping on the air.Then, Westbrook opened his right hand and slammed the ball into the basket.

Boom!

After landing on the floor and standing firmly, Westbrook clenched his fists and yelled at the home fans, then walked to the home court and slapped An Luo hard with the domineering steps that belonged to the turtles.

4:0, the Thunder made a perfect start.

All of a sudden, Thunder's momentum rose!It was originally his home court, and he succeeded in consecutive dunks at the beginning.The entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was jubilant.The uniform shouts of "OKC!" were about to tear the arena apart.

It can be seen in just two rounds that the Cavaliers are no match for the Thunder in full swing.Whether it is the defensive end or the offensive end, they are more active and more focused.

Next, JR began to shoot in from the left side of the three-point line.But An Luo's defense is not vegetarian. JR tried several times, but failed to find the right opportunity.In the end, he could only throw the ball to Love in the left corner.After the latter received the ball, time was running out, so he could only force a shot.

"boom!"

Nothing unexpected happened, and Love is not a player who is good at three-pointers.Coupled with the hasty shot again, blacksmithing could not be more normal.

The rebound was grabbed by Adams and handed over to Westbrook, who directly launched a counterattack.It may be that the consecutive offensive misses gave the Cavaliers players a sense of urgency.This time, their defense became more aggressive.

After Westbrook used his speed and breakthrough to take away the Cavaliers' defense, he stuffed the ball to Paul George who followed up.The latter went straight to the basket after receiving the ball, and was about to dunk.At this time TT appeared in the restricted area.He came in following Paul George, and waited until Paul George made a shot before jumping up high and slapping him down.

"Di!"

The basketball that Paul George dialed was indeed photographed by TT, but the referee's whistle also sounded!

Look at that gesture, it's a TT thug foul!After some fruitless appeals, Paul George finally stood at the free throw line.His free throws have always been accurate, and this time was no exception. After making two free throws, the score was rewritten to 6:0.

Although the defense was called a foul this time, it was worth it.The Cavaliers then assisted Love by George Hill to hit a ball in the right elbow.It changed the embarrassing situation of not scoring for nearly 2 minutes after the start of the game.

But in general, the Cavaliers were still overwhelmed by the Thunder in terms of momentum.Although in the next period of time, the two sides came and went, and the game looked very anxious, but the Thunder did not allow the Cavaliers to narrow the difference between the two sides.This situation continued until the end of the first quarter, and the Thunder finally entered the second quarter with a 6-point lead.
