Chapter 577 How happy it is to win the championship, how uncomfortable it is now
On November 2018, 11, the Oklahoma City Thunder challenged the Sacramento Kings away.This is the second meeting between the two sides this season. The last time, the Thunder scored 19 points at home and won the game.During that time, it was the time when An Luo became popular all over the league.Later, people gradually got used to An Luo who was 140+, and everything returned to calm again.
In this game, Westbrook, who missed five games due to injury, finally returned!In fact, Westbrook was available against the Knicks a few days ago.Of course, this is the answer given by the team doctor, and Donovan doesn't think so.He has always been cautious about the health of players.
Prior to this, the Thunder repelled the Suns at home and swept away the downturn in Dallas.Then, they beat the New York Knicks by 25 points, and then moved to Phoenix to easily win their third meeting with the Suns this season.The momentum is like a rainbow!
The current Thunder, if they want to attract the attention of the league, they have to lose!Winning has become a matter of course.No matter which team their opponent is, the media and fans treat it equally.
However, this fight against the king was extremely difficult.
The Thunder were in a sluggish state at the beginning.Both of An Luo's shots failed.A three-pointer, a back hit Hilder turned over a jumper.Westbrook and Paul George also hit iron frequently.The hoop at Golden One Center refused to open its arms to the Oklahoma outsiders.The king is just the opposite.Shumpert and Belica hit three-pointers one after another as soon as they came up.Lead the king to play a wave of 10:0 attack.After 2 minutes of the game, the Thunder scored for the first time by Westbrook.
The Thunder's downturn continued until the end of the second quarter.They entered the third quarter with a 56:69 disadvantage.
Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of this quarter, but the performance of the Thunder did not make people's eyes shine.Of course, compared to the first two quarters, the Thunder played very well.Several core players have stood up, especially Westbrook.After holding back for five games, he has been very active in this game.In this quarter, the Thunder completed the overtake.But it's not how well they played, it's how bad the Kings played.Mistakes, iron strikes, unnecessary fouls... They only scored 13 points, while the Thunder scored 27 points.
In the last quarter, the two sides finally played the game that people expected.The two sides have been entangled until the last moment to decide the winner.After Westbrook broke through and made a layup, he chased the score to 110:111 again.At this time, there are 18 seconds left in the game.Fox was so hot-headed that he even played a fast break instead of choosing to waste time.Adams chased after him and gave Fox a top hat. Paul George grabbed the ball, then threw it to An Luo with his right hand.After the latter received the ball, he rushed from the center line to the three-point line in two steps, hitting a fatal three-pointer against Hilde!
In the last 2.2 seconds, the Kings played a perfect three-pointer tactic.Hilde hit the ball over An Luo's head in the same way.However, when he was celebrating wildly, the referee played back the video repeatedly, and finally confirmed that Hilde shot after the end of normal time, and declared the ball invalid.Just half a second later, Hield became the hero of Sacramento!
After the thrilling victory, An Luo gave the other party a big hug, and said, "Dude, I told you a long time ago that your shooting speed is too slow! Now do you believe it?"
After leaving Sacramento, the Thunder and his party transferred to Oakland.Compared with the game against the Kings, the Thunder VS Warriors are naturally more exciting.However, the two teams can be regarded as sympathetic.The Thunder's Westbrook has just returned, and the Warriors directly lost Curry and Green.The Thunder lost Westbrook and won consecutive victories all the way; while the Warriors have lost three games in a row.They have lost five of their last seven games.Although Durant and Thompson have tried their best in their previous lives, they can't lead the Warriors out of the predicament.
If you want to ask the person who is under the most pressure now, it is not James who is gradually leading the Lakers out of the quagmire, nor is it Harden who is getting more and more crazy, and it is not Kerr who is always "I know everything".Instead, Durant.
The Warriors can live without Durant, but not without Curry and Green.
Before Durant came, the Warriors were already the championship!
Westbrook>>Durant
……
It seems that the whole world is standing opposite Durant.Everyone is accusing him, and everyone looks down on his proud pursuit.The championship is like a curse!When he was in the Thunder, he was a well-deserved superstar.Whether it is data or the team's record, few have done better than him.But people blamed him for not getting a championship.After winning the championship, people said that he did not lead the team to win it by himself.Durant felt that he was too wronged, but no one knew, anyway he did nothing wrong!
In this game, the Thunder suppressed the Warriors on both offense and defense.
On the offensive end, without Curry and Green, the Warriors can't play a super transition offense.What's even more uncomfortable is that without Curry's containment, Durant played under the double-team of Paul George and Robertson throughout the game.Even though he is the best indiscriminate singles superstar in this league, he is still greatly disturbed by the lack of offensive space.Thompson was stalked and defended by An Luo. Although he could score, none of them were easy.As for the others, you can't count on it!
On the defensive end, the Warriors put even less pressure on the Thunder.Without Green, the Warriors' defensive system basically collapsed.No one can switch to any position and cause great disruption to opponents like him.Blood and tenacity were brought back to the locker room by Green.
In the end, the Thunder maintained their advantage from the beginning of the game to the end of the game.They beat the Warriors by a score of 121:90 at the Oracle Arena. While they won five consecutive victories, they gave their opponents four consecutive losses.
本场比赛,杜兰特和汤普森双双砍下25分,前者还抢下了15个篮板。但是,与雷霆三巨头比起来,也略显寒酸。威斯布鲁克15分12篮板16助攻3抢断的大号三双,安洛36分2篮板2助攻1抢断,保罗乔治25分8篮板3助攻3抢断。值得一提的是,雷霆这边还有一个20分11篮板的亚当斯!
After the game, Westbrook took the initiative to hug Durant, which became the warmest scene of the night.The grievances between the two, in the rush of time, finally went in the best direction.
