Chapter 684 Moved to Toronto
If someone says Leonard is a superstar now, I am afraid there will be few people who object.With his performance at the critical moment of the last quarter of the game, he deserved it.
The stable performance on the offensive end has allowed the Raptors to maintain the lead in the score.The block at the last moment, like a knife, pierced the Thunder's heart, directly killing the last suspense of the game.
The final score was fixed at 111:108, with the home team at the back and the visiting team at the front.The Raptors struggled to grab a win in Oklahoma.They improved their discomfort in entering the finals in the second game and showed an excellent competitive state.The state of the Raptors has recovered, and even the entire series has become exciting.Everyone finally saw a match that belonged to the finals level.
After the game, the Raptors players flocked to Leonard in unison.Without a doubt, he is a hero in Toronto.At least this night, he saved the Raptors.He himself was very excited, and that feeling was not much worse than when he beat the 76ers in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The atmosphere on Lei Ting's side was very low.An Luo kept shaking his head, walking towards the locker room belonging to the home team with a desolate expression on his face.He could have been the star of the night and he had the absolute confidence to make that shot.In fact, if he spotted Leonard, feinted him out of the way, it would be enough time for him to take off and shoot again.But all the things that happened are without if!Now the fact is that his shot was blocked by Leonard and the Thunder lost the game.Although it is not a shame to be blocked by a best defensive player, An Luo is still difficult to accept.
"I can make that ball. I have full confidence in myself! I have made many shots like that." An Luo's emotions quickly recovered.However, when he faced the reporter, he was still brooding.
"Kawhi is a very good player. Offensively he is like a machine, he can maintain a very consistent state all night. Defensively creates a huge pressure on us. Tonight, he is Toronto's Hero. His block prevented us from taking the game to overtime. Once in overtime, the game was back to square one. We had enough confidence to make the final victory...”
Although he praised Leonard to the sky, An Luo was actually very unconvinced in his heart.He can't wait to start the third game now, he wants to fully release his energy on the offensive end, and he wants a hearty victory.In these two games, Donovan's arrangement and the Raptors' targeting made him unhappy.
"It was a tough game. We all played our best. We limited each other with a strong defense to good effect. Of course, they were the same. His performance changed the trend of the game, he is an amazing guy." As the boss of the team, Westbrook behaved relatively decently when facing reporters.Like An Luo, he praised Leonard.However, after he finished boasting, he changed his tone: "We had many opportunities to establish the victory, but our mistakes at critical moments led to their victory. If I made those two free throws, everything would be different."
"Ann's performance in this game was impeccable. He made a lot of key shots. When we were in a disadvantaged situation, he was always our biggest support. No one can guarantee that we can kill the opponent every time. We Could have done better and played off of An's offense at other times in the game."
As a head coach, Donovan is satisfied with the performance of his players in this game.He did not deny everyone's efforts because of the failure of the last shot.
"We played a great game. There was nothing wrong with the players, Russell, Paul, Ann, and Steven, Jeremy, etc., they all did what they were supposed to do. Of course, We made some mistakes. But that's part of the game. We enjoy the game and accept the result. The next game, we will perform better. The feeling of winning in Toronto is familiar to us. "
It can be seen that Thunderclap is not too upset about the loss of this game.After all, this is the finals, both sides are the strongest teams in their respective divisions, and whoever wins or loses will not appear abrupt.The same goes for the Raptors. They didn't get elated and carried away because they won a victory in the away game.Keeping a clear mind and a humble attitude at all times is the temperament that a king's teacher should have.
"They are the defending champions, and their lineup is very strong. It is a lucky thing to be able to win away. Of course, our players are good enough and worked hard enough tonight. The next game will be very difficult. We Their opponents will not become mediocre because of the move to Toronto. It is very likely that they will play better in Toronto." The team is full of confidence.
"Of course, the road to the championship will never be smooth sailing. From the first round of the playoffs, we have faced various difficulties, but we have always been the final winners. In the following games, we Also confident to be a winner."
A series of confrontations will often continue to any venue.The strong fighting spirit can be felt from the words of the head coaches of both sides.Leading the team to this point, no one will feel that they are inferior to others.
In addition to the players and coaches of both sides, the confrontation between the fans is much more exciting.The Internet is a place prone to disputes, not to mention that there are so many things that can become the focus of controversy in these two games.This kind of debate will continue for a long time, even if the series is finally decided, the debate on the Internet will have no results.
However, the Thunder generals, who were the focus of controversy, did not speak out after the post-match press conference.On this current Thunder team, there are no chatterboxes.If there is anything unconvinced, just find it on the field.This is all influenced by Westbrook. After all, he is a contradictory body. There are endless debates surrounding him, and he has always been too lazy to answer.
An Luo also learned this way of dealing with the world.His last shot has become the key to people's criticism and criticism.But he didn't care, he just concentrated on preparing for the next game in Toronto.He doesn't need to argue much, his actual actions will shut those people up.
