Lin Yi's shooting rate will also be recovered, this is just a matter of time, when the Spurs players have found their touch and have the shooting rate, then today's game is really over, and the Thunder are still on the edge of the tail of the playoffs.

Although the eighth place in the playoffs for several years is the Memphis Grizzlies, the Thunder also need to work hard for the playoff rankings, they don't want to face the Spurs, this is also reasonable, if the eighth, it is to play the Spurs, I can only hope that tomorrow's Memphis Grizzlies lose the game, honestly in the eighth position.

Otherwise, it's them, because their results are just one game off, if the Memphis Grizzlies win the game tomorrow, the Thunder won't necessarily be seventh, if they can get today's win, then there will be no problem, the Memphis Grizzlies win tomorrow, it doesn't matter.

"Durant, do you still need to give you the ball in the next game?, are you ready to face that guy's defense?, although his defense, you can break through, but you can't resist his interference, otherwise your shooting percentage would not be like this", Westbrook asked.

Durant shook his head lightly and said: "I don't know this yet, try not to give me the ball in the first two minutes, I want to understand that guy's defense, how many of you will find a way to score?, I'll find a feeling, you're right, you can break through, but there is no way to grasp the shooting percentage, this situation is really very annoying."

"Okay!, you're ready, just tell me, I'll give you the ball then!, we'll have to play hard-headed today, otherwise, we may need to face the Spurs in the playoffs, and then we won't have to play in the playoffs, there are two old guys sitting there, and their experience can let us finish the game", Westbrook nodded and said.

Durant didn't speak, everything Westbrook said, he understood very well, as long as it was against the Spurs in the playoffs, the Thunder didn't have no power to fight back at all, it still didn't matter much in the regular season, if you can't beat the Spurs, you can play other teams, and the results are also guaranteed.

But the playoffs are different, they have to play seven games against the Spurs, and they feel scared to think about it, let alone play seriously?, except for the Memphis Grizzlies, no one likes to face the Spurs.

The referee looked at the time, and when the pause in the first quarter ended, the two sides returned to the game again and continued to start the second quarter of the game.

Lin Yi stood near the three-point line and waited, Lin Yi's position is normally Tony Parker's position, but Durant's style of play is a little strange, he is a player on the left, so his position is either the middle or a little to the left.

Lin Yi can only defend according to his offensive habits, so he also stands in Tony Parker's position, which is also related to Westbrook's habits, both of them have the same problem, and they never like to stand in the middle and start attacking, as long as they are fans who are familiar with Westbrook, they all know that his offensive starting point is basically a little on the right, not in the middle of the point guards.

Lin Yi stood there and waited, he was ready, as long as Durant started to attack, he would start to defend, otherwise, Durant didn't make any moves, he just stood there and watched, because if there were too many moves, Durant could find opportunities, so Lin Yi could only do this in order to ensure the quality of defense.

Although this can ensure the quality of defense, there are still some problems in comparison, because when Durant makes an offensive move, you can't react at the first time, and you can only know when Durant does the previous action.

If you encounter a fast player, when you don't react, he has already rushed past your defense, of course, although Durant's speed is fast, but not very fast, Lin Yi can still guarantee that he can react.

Fortunately, Lin is facing Durant, if it is Iverson, then there is no way, as we all know, Iverson is very scary at the moment of starting speed, and why there will be some new regulations in the league to limit Iverson, so that he can rush up unscrupulously, this game will not need to be played, Iverson also has super scoring ability, with his speed, the opponent who comes and goes does not need to play at all.

After a while, Durant appeared in front of Lin Yi, he followed Westbrook, as soon as the two people came, the Spurs players began to be on guard, one is the guy who controls the ball, and the other is the scorer of the Thunder, the second quarter of the game, whether you can play well is to see if you can limit the two of them, if there is no way to limit it, then there is no need to play, the second quarter of the game can only look at the shooting percentage.

Harden, who has a 100% shooting rate, doesn't pay attention to it, because he is just a player chasing points, not under special circumstances, his ball possession is very small, and it has no effect on hitting percentage, so he can only look for opportunities by himself, once Westbrook is restricted, then Harden will have no ball, and opportunities will have no effect on the good.

As soon as Westbrook came over, he found that the Spurs' players, when defending him, looked different, Tony Parker was the same, George Hill was the same, Westbrook didn't understand, why did George Hill stare at himself?, his defensive player should be Harden, right?

Popovich's defensive plan has always been bizarre, so many times, the opposing coach's coach may not be able to see the problem, let alone the players, so Westbrook can only think about it for a while, thinking that George Hill should be a player who assists in defense.

His goal is still Harden, as long as he does his own thing, he shouldn't come over, it's impossible to let Harden go, Durant has just made it clear that he won't ask for the ball in the first two minutes, that is to say, the ball needs to be divided between the four of them, and Harden, who has a shooting percentage, is of course the first choice.

Westbrook can't wait for the Spurs players to let go of Harden, so that the ball can easily get into his hands, of course, it is impossible for the Spurs to know that there is a matter between them, so the old man's request is to limit Westbrook and Durant, and the other players will also let go as much as possible.

But the old man didn't make it clear which player he needed to let go, which meant that he hoped that the players would see clearly for themselves, who needed to let go of the defense and who couldn't let go of the defense, so the players could only let the players experience it themselves.
