The Thunder's offense was blocked, and Westbrook was once again deflated at Zhou Xuan's hands. He is improving, and every time he feels that he can clean up Zhou Xuan. But when it comes to fighting, it backfires. Watching Zhou Xuan play, Westbrook also realized that it is not possible to play basketball well with good physical fitness, whether it is overall or individual, you must find a good rhythm.

Zhou Xuan may be the player with the best sense of rhythm, because he is always thinking about what he should do.

Westbrook, on the other hand, often loses his sense of normalcy because of his rivals. He handed out two assists in the half today, still for Durant, this kind of assist is too simple, receiving the ball is dry.

The Warriors closed the gap at halftime. 46 to 51.

In the second half, Durant once again dominated the high block. Garcia also showed off his defensive move - the hand knife! I can't cover you on top, I can cut you underneath. Durant didn't have an easy time facing him.

With Garcia's example in front of them, others have also begun to pester Durant at the cost of physical strength. Durant is not without flaws, he is too tall, puts pressure on him, and is prone to mistakes with the ball.

Durant kept playing high cover with Kostic. The Warriors' defensive strategy in the second half was relatively successful. Randolph Jr. doesn't follow the out, he can both protect the box and fight for rebounds. Let the forward interfere with Durant's shot. Keeping the big man under the basket is a classic defensive principle in man-to-man defense.

Inside Margeti followed out and found a physical confrontation to compress Durant's offensive space. It is known that Durant has a high center of gravity, unlike those small guards who can toss and turn in small places, as long as he is not given room to start, his breakthrough power will immediately drop by half.

The third quarter was tied and Westbrook finally started scoring, relying on open cuts and counter-attacks behind off-ball covers.

In the fourth quarter, the Warriors were in a hurry, Randolph Jr. was fouled for six fouls at the end of the game with seven and a half minutes left, and Turyaf also had five fouls on his back.

Harden, Durant, and Westbrook are all players who are full of impact and good at making fouls, and the Warriors are not good at defending inside. Smart was forced to ask for a timeout.

Fortunately, the Thunder interior line is not good at strong offense, and the Warriors can barely block the opponent's offensive. With two minutes left in the game, Turyaf was also fouled, and Durant hit both free throws to put the Warriors up by eight points at 92-100.

Su Qun sighed: "This referee blew very biased, so far the Warriors have only won 17 free throws, and the Thunder have 39. Durant himself made 20 free throws, and Garcia now has five fouls. ”

Yang Jian said: "Although the home whistle is a situation that has always existed in the NBA, if the Thunder win by this today, I believe many people will be unconvinced." The Warriors had only three players available on the inside, and now only Blair remains. ”

Chinese fans posted on the Internet on Tieba, saying that the referee was too dark, and there were also those who suggested that the Warriors should trade to the inside as soon as possible. Wright and Randolph were unable to play for a short time, and now one is thin inside, the other can't attack, and the other is less than two meters tall and suffers too much.

Zhou Xuan has been heavily guarded, but he still scored 14 points, 5 rebounds and 13 assists, and Westbrook shot very low, with 16 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists, and 8 points from the free throw line. If it weren't for his extra undercover shooting, the Warriors might not have survived the last and had to surrender their guns.

Count the foul makers in the league. James and Wade were typical players who broke through the interior in the early days, and many times they were forced to break in and were held and fell, and the free throws were mostly reasonable. Similar players include Margeti and Ginobili in the early days. Kobe Bryant and Martin are extremely realistic shooting feints, relying on rhythm to cheat fouls, similar to Pierce. Howard, Jr., is a typical violent insider, forcing offense and making fouls.

What type does Durant belong to? How could he, as a big man shooter who mainly shoots, average 10 per game. 2 free throws? And his service shot rate of 90%, which means that Durant has 9 free throws per game alone. 2 points in the account. Free throws are undoubtedly the most consistent way for a consistent shooter to score. The league wants to praise Durant, and it's too obvious.

Today's referee is also a celebrity, the most awesome and most notorious "nerd killer" Crawford. The old man didn't know which tendon was wrong, and grabbed the Warriors player and blew for fouls.

Last week, when the Magic played the Nuggets, Crawford dominated the game, causing dissatisfaction among fans. He turned a blind eye to the Nuggets players fouling Magic center Howard, but only the slightest movement of Howard when he defended sounded the whistle. The most exaggerated thing is that at the end of the game, Anthony broke through with the ball, and the Magic team Nelson was completely outside the reasonable collision circle and stood motionless and was knocked away, Crawford actually blew a Nelson blocking foul, and the gesture when he blew the foul was definitely the crazy action that only people who twisted their hearts and ****. His expression was also very strange, and those who didn't know how to think that he saw Nelson's center of gravity was too low, and he bit Anthony's lifeline when he collided.

A mentally balanced, normal-minded, and level-headed referee will not act like a clown. Replays also showed that Nelson was wronged, but in the end, Crawford did not reverse the decision, and the Magic lost the game in the final moments.

Zhou Xuan has also heard of this guy for a long time, but he doesn't know why the NBA has repeatedly allowed this bald head like a clown to ignore the efforts of the players again and again, and dominate the results of the game himself? It is important to know that Crawford has made very low-level mistakes not once, twice, but countless times, and there are too many players who want to slap him to death with a brick.

Crawford has so many surprising feats.

In the first quarter of Game 2 of the 2003 Western Conference Finals, he gave the then Mavericks head coach Nelson Sr. two technical fouls. Afterwards, Stern was very unhappy about the incident, and called Crawford to New York for a meeting. Crawford whistled four technical fouls in 10 minutes, which led directly to Mavericks head coach Don Bush. Nelson was ejected. And Nelson was penalized simply for not sitting on the bench. Crawford then moved the Mavericks' then-assistant coach, former Lakers and former Chinese national team coach Del? Harris ejected from the game, allowing the Mavericks to play without a coach.

In 2007, the league began implementing zero-tolerance rules, and in a game between the Spurs and Mavericks, Crawford ejected Duncan for insulting himself because he was sitting on the bench laughing. After the incident, NBA executives investigated the matter and decided to suspend Crawford indefinitely, and Crawford missed the 2007 playoffs and Finals. Stern's assessment of Crawford was that he "lost the judgment he should have as an NBA referee." This is a nice statement, and the major media commented that "his neuropathy has finally attacked." ”

In Game 4 of the 2008 Western Conference Finals, the Lakers visited the Spurs. In the final moments of the game, Lakers player Fisher vs. Spurs player Brent? Barry's shooting hitter fouls. If Crawford blew the whistle at that time, then Barry would have killed the Lakers with free throws, but Crawford, as the referee closest to the incident at the time, chose to ignore it, and in the end, the Lakers relied on Crawford's help to eliminate the Spurs 4-1. Afterwards, the NBA also apologized for the incident.

In the sixth game of the 2008 finals, the Celtics swept the Los Angeles Lakers 131:92 at home, in this game, the Lakers played completely unenergetic, almost no breakthrough, 18 mistakes in a single game, the whole team 100% sleepwalking, and the Celtics offense is sharp, and the offensive and defensive ends of the Lakers are complete, but the strange thing is that the Lakers in this situation, the number of free throws in the whole court is still more than the Celtics!

In short, Crawford's is an out-and-out bastard.

On the sidelines, Azubuk, who committed four crimes, scolded: "Is that dead bald head sick? Blow a foul at the first touch! Why didn't this guy die? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, the score hasn't opened up yet, we have a chance to win." Ellis said coldly. In fact, he was the one who wanted to kill Crawford the most, and he was judged to have hit the ball with the ball on two controversial air cuts in the third quarter, and now he has seven turnovers.

Smart drew a few times on the tactical board and said: "Yes, we can win, they are not good at strong offense inside, we can withstand it, De Juan (Blair), Corey (Margetty) must resist people, protect the rebound, and then try to play fast, Francisco (Garcia), Gerrard (Green), you can shoot three points when you have a chance, Zhou passes." ”

At the critical moment, Green also replaced Ellis, although he has not been satisfactory in the past two years, but when he entered the league, in the NBA's major rookie websites, Gerrard? Green's comments are almost always simple and straightforward. "He's the future McGrady!"

Regardless of height, weight, or even that slightly languid look, Green is just like McGrady. In fact, Green does have some fate with Maddy, a high school student born in Houston who grew up watching the Rockets play. Maddie's moves, every move, and every move have long been deeply imprinted in Green's heart. He is most similar to Maddie in a pull-up jumper that is not easily blocked. That's when the Warriors need him to steal points.

Finally, another team is willing to trust me, and if it weren't for Zhou Xuan, I might have gone to play in the Euroleague by now. Green took a deep breath, nothing but excitement in his heart. He is a simple-minded person, the coach arranges the tactics, he plays according to this, it doesn't matter if he throws in or not, and there is no psychological pressure.

A person like him, if he arranges unlimited shots and pick-and-roll offenses, maybe he can really average 20+ per game, his style is similar to the Nuggets' JR Smith, a convulsive, and he is in good shape today.

Thunder Brooks coaches arranged interior players Kostic and Ibaka to block and dismantle, Durant and Westbrook broke through, and Harden replaced Sephorosa. At this time, the Lakers must have forced the Warriors to vomit blood on the inside, but Brooks knows the situation of his players, Kostic can't hit the opponent to score inside, and Ibaka shoots from a close distance and is also blue-collar. The low step is about the same as not, and you can only attack the outside.

Victory or defeat depends on the outside.
