Chapter 343 Westbrook ([-])
At [-]:[-] p.m. local time on June [-]th in the United States, the fourth game of the NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder officially started at the Conseco Arena, home of the Pacers.
Since the team has fallen behind the Indiana Pacers by a big score of 1:2, the Oklahoma City Thunder launched a large-scale attack after the opening, trying to quickly take advantage of the game and lay a solid foundation for winning the game.After all, if the Oklahoma City Thunder cannot win this game, then they will continue to fall behind with a big score of 1:3. Lose the whole series.
However, perhaps because of the excessive pressure on their shoulders, the offense of the Oklahoma City Thunder players is not very smooth. If there is no Kevin Durant, then the team is likely to have a big score at the beginning of the game. behind the opponent.Fortunately, Kevin Durantry scored five points in a row, helping the Oklahoma City Thunder to bite the score 7:9.
"The reason why the Oklahoma City Thunder can bite the score at this time is entirely dependent on the outstanding performance of Kevin Durant alone. If other players on the team cannot provide more for Kevin Durant If it is supported by the firepower, it will not last long to rely on Kevin Durant alone!" said Reggie Miller, who served as a live commentator in the Conseco Arena.
"Russell Westbrook, as the second head of the Oklahoma City Thunder, has every responsibility to stand up at this time and make the contribution he should make for the team. However, Russell Westbrook It has been firmly restricted by the promise of the main point guard of the Indiana Pacers, and it has not scored a point so far!" Mark Jackson, the commentary partner sitting next to Reggie Miller, said immediately.
The corner of Xu Nuo raised his mouth slightly, held the ball and faced Russell Westbrook in front of him, suddenly accelerated to start a breakthrough, passed Russell Westbrook's defense in an instant like the wind, and reached Oklahoma The City Thunder scored their first point in the game by making a small throw in the paint against opposing center Kendrick Perkins.However, in addition to this, Xu Nuo has sent two assists in a row, and at the same time, Russell Westbrook has still not scored a point and has not shown any performance.
"Promise beat Russell Westbrook again!" exclaimed Reggie Miller. The underdog debate is almost never-ending, and now we can see that Commitment has a slight upper hand, both in terms of statistics and performance on the pitch!"
"Despite this, Russell Westbrook still has a strong strength. Although he is at a disadvantage now, I believe he will rise again soon!" Mark Jackson immediately retorted.
"But if you look at the stats, Russell Westbrook had three shots and none of them. In addition, Russell Westbrook didn't even send out a single assist. You are the best spectator in the game! Russell Westbrook is in such a poor state tonight, it is hard to perform well!" Facing the rebuttal of his commentator partner, Reggie Miller immediately put forward question.
Just as Mark Jackson was about to say something, the Oklahoma City Thunder had already played a quick counterattack on the court.Kevin Durant stopped for a jumper during the fast break, but the ball hit the neck of the basket and bounced high.
At this moment, Russell Westbrook suddenly started from Xu Nuo's side and rushed towards the basket at high speed.Promised to catch up, I had to watch Russell Westbrook jump high and dunk the ball into the basket with one hand between center Roy Hibbert and power forward David West!
"Russell Westbrook——" Mark Jackson yelled from the commentary booth, "Russell Westbrook jumped high and dunked the ball that Kevin Durant missed. Into the basket! Russell Westbrook’s feet almost reached Roy Hibbert’s waist when he jumped up, which shows how strong Russell Westbrook’s jumping ability and physical fitness are! Hope to pull Sal Westbrook can use this shot to get back on track and get the team back on track!"
On the sidelines, coach Larry Brown adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and stared sharply at Russell Westbrook on the court.
"Be careful, promise!" Coach Larry Brown said with a little worry in his heart.
And Russell Westbrook seemed to have a surge in fighting spirit because of the wonderful dunk just now, and he became more oppressive on the defensive end.Facing Russell Westbrook's defense, Xu Nuo decisively chose to break through with the ball, relying on continuous quick starts and stops to get rid of Russell Westbrook with difficulty.However, at the moment when Xu Nuo made a layup, Russell Westbrook suddenly jumped up high and slapped the ball that Xu Nuo threw away!
"Beep—" Joe Crawford, the referee on duty, immediately blew the whistle in his mouth, and then pointed to Russell Westbrook.
"Actually blowing Russell's interference ball?" Mark Jackson in the commentary said in surprise after seeing Joe Crawford making a gesture.
And Russell Westbrook looked innocent, and couldn't believe that a wonderful block of his own would turn into a goaltend.Although the big screen at the scene played the replay of the moment when Russell Westbrook blocked the block over and over again, the referee Joe Crawford still maintained his original penalty.Russell Westbrook shook his head somewhat resignedly, stepping back into the Oklahoma City Thunder's half.After the Indiana Pacers scored this time, the point difference between the two teams returned to four points.
"Russell Westbrook's supplementary dunk just now can be said to not be the beginning of his explosion, but from this moment on, Russell Westbrook will definitely explode!" Coach Larry Brown folded his arms around his chest Before, I kept thinking back and forth in my mind, "We must come up with an effective countermeasure in advance, otherwise, it will be very difficult to stop Russell Westbrook with the power of promise alone!"
On the offensive end, Kevin Durant once again reached out to Russell Westbrook for the ball, but instead of passing the ball, Russell Westbrook chose to attack with the ball himself.Russell Westbrook continuously dribbled the ball under the crotch in an attempt to confuse Xu Nuo's defensive direction, but Xu Nuo was unmoved at all, and Russell Westbrook had to forcefully break through with the ball.Xu Nuo wanted to make a steal, but was blocked by Russell Westbrook with his arm. Immediately afterwards, Russell Westbrook quickly rushed into the Indiana Pacers paint area!
"Replenish defense!" Xu Nuo shouted loudly.
But just as center Roy Hibbert took a step laterally, Russell Westbrook jumped high and tried to dunk.In a hurry, Roy Hibbert had to raise his arms to block Russell Westbrook's attack.Still, Russell Westbrook single-handedly dunked the ball over Roy Hibbert!Immediately, all the players on the Oklahoma City Thunder bench jumped up.
"Facing the tallest Roy Hibbert in the team, Russell Westbrook can complete a one-handed dunk, and his jumping ability is really strong!" Xu Nuo thought in his heart.
"After that successful dunk, Russell Westbrook has scored four points in a row!" Mark Jackson said in admiration, "Russell Westbrook has indeed recovered his form and started to recover gradually. .With the help of Russell Westbrook, the Oklahoma City Thunder will definitely get back on track!"
"But we are still the one holding the lead so far!" Xu Nuo said to himself, took the ball from DeMar DeRozan, dribbled the ball forward.Russell Westbrook's defense is still extremely oppressive. This time he promised not to break through with the ball, and directly passed the ball to the team's top scorer Danny Granger.Danny Granger singled out Kevin Durant one-on-one with the ball, but Danny Granger's breakthrough layup missed the basket under Kevin Durant's interference.
"After two consecutive big explosions, Danny Granger seems a little tired. But now the game has just begun!" Reggie Miller said with a frown.
After Danny Granger missed a layup, Russell Westbrook directly controlled the ball and immediately dribbled the ball upfield at high speed.Despite promising a quick return, Russell Westbrook assisted Kevin Durant on his heels for a dunk. At 13:13, the two teams returned to the same starting line!
Coach Larry Brown stood up and called for a long timeout.
"It's really time to make a change!" Coach Larry Brown whispered to himself.
Xu Nuo looked serious and quickly returned to the team's bench.At this time, Xu Nuo had already noticed the sign that Russell Westbrook wanted to explode, and he couldn't help but feel more vigilant.
"No matter what you say, the opponent is Russell Westbrook!" Xu Nuo said to himself in his heart, "It is impossible for a player like Westbrook to be in poor form throughout the game. Now the game It's just started, and there are still nearly four 10 minutes of the game to come, in these four 10 minutes of the game, we must not let our guard down at all times!"
