Chapter 275: Three-line eruption

Bynum was very focused, even though he had just won the offensive ball on Anjie's head, which was the first time he had won a basketball on Anjie's head, but Bynum was not at all proud. The Zen master of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is right, even if the performance of this group of guys in the last game was very bad, they still can't be taken lightly.

Everyone has a bad time, and the Lakers have played a lot of bad games. But that doesn't mean a team won't be able to bounce back from now on, and the team that can reach the Western Conference semifinals is definitely the kind of team that can adjust.

The Lakers' first offense ended with Artest's mid-range shot. Durant defended the ball very well, but Artest almost shot against Durant's defense.

As soon as this goal was scored, the fans at the Staples Center were even more excited and confident. Only the Lakers players were breathing a sigh of relief, and thankfully God was on their side just now! They were more fortunate than happy.

After the Thunder's offensive round, Anjie's key position was not very positive, which greatly surprised Bynum's expectations. For two consecutive games, Anjie has been the absolute core of the Thunder on the court. But today, looking at the current formation, it seems that the tactics of the Thunder team have changed again.

Although An Jie is not active, his blocking and dismantling is very positive. As soon as Westbrook controlled the ball to the top of the three-point line, Anjie's wall was already "built".

Fischer is just a lot of experience, and when he encounters a high-quality block like Anjie, his defense will still be delayed. And this slight delay is enough for Westbrook, the fastest guy on the Thunder team, to find a gap.

In the last game, Westbrook would have carelessly jumped to the basket and then given Gasol a block.

But today, Westbrook's spirit is completely different. Take the breakthrough as an example, after seeing the opportunity, Westbrook kicked the ground with a powerful calf, like a loaded bullet, and "shot" into the Lakers' restricted area.

Gasol was tempted to stop him, but Westbrook was too fast, and after the two made physical contact, he found that Westbrook was not left behind.

During the regular season, Westbrook had more than once blocked opposing centers. Now with Gasol's layup, it's even more of a problem.

Westbrook's layup hit a high-arc high toss and dodged the Spaniard's long arm. The basketball knocks down the rebound and refracts into the net.

Although it was only the first goal of the Thunder team in the opening game, the Lakers players could clearly feel that this Thunder team was very different from the Thunder in the last game!

The more this happens, the more psychological pressure the Lakers will have. Fans hope that the Purple and Gold can get a match point in this game, but this has become an invisible psychological pressure for the Lakers playing at home.

The Lakers attacked for the second time, and when Kobe Bryant held the ball, Staples let out a huge cheer as always. However, Sephorosa's tenacious entanglement has struggled for top scorers like Kobe, and everyone has praised Sephorosa's defense, including the picky Charles Barkley.

"I don't remember the first time I complimented the Thunder players, really, they were amazing. Before joining the Thunder, the Swiss must not have made much impression on everyone. But now, he's a player that everyone knows!" Barkley doesn't see anyone who can defend Kobe Bryant so badly, even if it's just one round, but Sephorosa is great enough.

Sephorosa's aggressive defense surprised Kobe, and several times he thought he had cleaned up Sephorosa, who knew that this European outside line with braids and cut was once again in front of him.

In the past, European defenders were all technically good, but their defense and physicality were unimpressive. But Seflorosa is a complete anomaly, and he can survive in the NBA because of that crazy defense.

Sefrosa's defense looks crazy, but his mind is unusually calm. He can always judge the opponent's breakthrough route and clearly capture any moment of the opponent's slackness.

"!" Bryant yelled, forcing his shot before the 24-second offensive time was up. Yes, Sephorosa is such a guy, he is a guy who makes Kobe Bryant scold his mother by defense!

Sephorosa dragged the god of Staples into the water with the defense in the shadow, and as long as Kobe Bryant couldn't shoot, Sephorosa could move forward with peace of mind. Because he knows that with Angel and Morris here, they rarely lose backcourt rebounds.

Playing a series with the Lakers is already the most embarrassing rebounding game for the Thunder. But even so, the Lakers still have very few frontcourt rebounds per game.

Sure enough, the concerted position of Anjie and Morris left the Lakers Twin Towers with no chance, and Anjie saw the time and protected the rebound with just a slight jump.

An Jie grabbed rebounds, and he has always relied on not bounce. If that's the case, it would be impossible to kill An Jie to rank second in the rebounding list. Because in the NBA, Anjie's little bounce is too insignificant. But he relied on Divac's special training position skills to become the Thunder's rebounding guarantee.

After the first defensive failure, the Lakers shrunk down a bit this time. Artest, on the other hand, continues to pester Durant, the beast who has been doing a good job of defending in the Western Conference semifinals, causing the youngest scoring champion to plummet in points, which is something that cannot be seen on the court.

But in the same way, Durant's off-ball running also made Artest very embarrassed. Today, coupled with Anjie's off-ball blocking, it will be very difficult for Artest to keep up with Durant.

Especially after the Lakers shrunk their defensive lineup, there are even fewer people who can help Artest defend. As long as Durant gets a little space, then he can make a fatal blow!

Durant has run a few routes, but still can't get Artest out of it.

"It's tough!" Sephorosa is a top perimeter defender, so why not Artest?, but Van Gundy drew more than one or two tactics for Durant, and finally after a double block with Anjie and Morris, Durant got a fleeting shot!

For a scoring champion-caliber player, this kind of momentary opportunity is enough! As soon as Durant's ball was shot, Artest sealed it. In this case, Artest has done the best he can, but Durant's shot this time is still very calm.

"Brush!" The crisp sound of the Nets tumbling sounded in everyone's ears, Durant hit a three-point shot, and Artest was defeated for the first time with Durant.

It's clear that Artest needs to help defend, and he needs the help of his teammates to be able to contain Durant. But if that happens, Westbrook's breakthrough will work again.

Phil Jackson gestured from the sidelines to signal the Lakers' defensive strategy to continue to change. It's not hard to limit Durant and Westbrook at the same time!

The third time, Westbrook unhurriedly possessed the ball towards the Lakers halfcourt. Even the defending champions are waiting for the battle, and so far in the game, they have not successfully defended once!

Westbrook tried to break through, only to find that his defender had become Kobe Bryant.

Westbrook, an Angelenoman, naturally knows how good Kobe's defense is, and this is only covered up by Black Mamba's more perverted offense. Westbrook tried to get past Kobe Bryant with Anjie's block, but failed to do so twice.

You can't hang yourself from a tree, Westbrook understands the old Chinese saying. Since you can't make a mistake on Kobe's head, help others score!

He stiffened up to Kobe's defensive breakthrough, which would make it difficult for the offensive side to get a shot, but there was still a gap in passing.

With Westbrook's breakaway, the Lakers' roster shrank again. But the Lakers are not afraid, they are ready enough!

Sure enough, Westbrook had just stepped into the three-second zone when he suddenly split the ball out. Westbrook's passing target is unbiased, and it happens to be Durant!

Durant spread his long arms and big hands and kept the basketball firmly under his hands. At the same time, Artest and Gasol are both moving towards Durant's side.

Seeing this, Durant immediately made a decision, and he just received the ball less than a second before he lifted the ball and jumped.

"You're the wrong boy!" Artest immediately blocked up, and Gasol jumped up behind him. Surrounded by the two, Durant looked like he had no chance.

But before Durant jumped to the top, the Thunder's No. 35 made a move. But looking at the trajectory of basketball, it doesn't seem to be a shot, it's a pass!

Morris received the basketball, Gasol went to the outside to block Durant, and Morris was missed.

Although this guy doesn't shoot well, it's impossible for him to have a big open space at close range for him to shoot.

Seeing this, Bynum had no choice but to leave Anjie behind and raise his hands to make up for Morris.

Morris just made a fake throw and gave Anjie the final chance to finish the attack with a ground-hitting pass.

Fischer "The Old Fish" Fischer judged Morris's intentions and was going to intercept the ball halfway through. Unexpectedly, his pace could no longer keep up with the speed of this pass, and Fischer seemed to have his fingertips on the basketball, but he still couldn't prevent the ball from falling into Anjie's hands.

When Anjie received the ball, he was faced with an unguarded basket. This distance is a little far away to dunk, which will give Bynum a chance to make up for the defense, and it is a little too close to shoot and it is difficult to grasp the strength. So An Jie simply jumped lightly and scored the ball with a throw!

"Ho ho, beautiful offense! What else can I say, the Thunder's offense went through the hands of four people, and each one of them received the ball smoothly and beautifully. In the end, An Jie's throwing was also perfect. Seriously, is there anything Ann can't do? The center should know, he will!"

After An Jie scored, the Zen master suddenly stood up from the bench. It is true that Durant and Westbrook are powerful, and the Lakers still have a plan to deal with it, but when the Thunder three are all able to play a role......

Phil Jackson swallowed, hoping that the performance of these three boys was just a flash in the pan. If the defenders, forwards, and center forwards all three lines break out, then even the defending champions will play very tricky.

This is Staples in Los Angeles, and the Zen master can only hope that nothing bad will happen here......

An Jie's expression was still calm after the goal, and this was just the beginning of the next series of fierce attacks!
