Chapter 485: Thunder Three Less
McGee's rebound helped the team not let the lead be narrowed further.
It can be said that McGee did a pretty good job, but considering that he had conceded several rebounds in a row before, it was normal for this rebound to be able to win.
"Han, I succeeded, grab the board with one hand in the air!"
After the game, McGee was very excited, and he didn't expect that he could really do it with one hand.
"Well done!"
Han Miao also patted McGee on the back to express encouragement, after all, this time, they successfully limited the Thunder and did not let them score 30 points in a single quarter.
Well...... Although it was a shame to be scored 28 points, it was still acceptable considering Durant's presence.
"The defense has to continue to persevere, Durant will definitely come back in the second quarter, Andre is the main defense, Gordon is responsible for the help defense?"
Stevens is not at ease with Durant, so he still plays a two-man defense strategy, and two-man defense is the foundation.
"Coach, will I play on the inside?"
Yao Ming asked for battle, he rested for more than 3 minutes, and his physical strength recovered a lot.
"Well, okay, then Yao plays, Han comes down to rest, Sean controls the ball, Javier plays big, if Kevin breaks into the inside, Javier you use your arm to give him a few hard shots!"
If Yao Ming goes back, because the speed will definitely slow down, so in order to deal with the more flexible Thunder, McGee still has to be there, and he can help the team make up for the defense at any time.
Indeed, McGee is tall and has long arms, as well as movement speed, in the case of Yao Ming, the Optimus Prime on the inside, McGee's existence, the combination of the two people's defense, is enough to make the 76ers' restricted area become like an iron bucket!
It's this lineup that has almost the offensive ability, Hayward Iguodala and Livingston form a high outside line, and the defensive end will be more powerful than the offensive end!
On the Thunder's side, Durant came back, the inside line was replaced by White Ade and Krisson, Ibaka went down to rest, and Harden and Wei Shao were in the backcourt.
It seems that in order to recover the point difference, Coach Brooks also made a big move in the second quarter and released all three trump cards.
The Thunder possessed the ball, Westbrook controlled the ball, and Durant waved at him from afar.
Westbrook passes, after all, Durant is the big brother, and it can't be said otherwise.
Hayward stuck to Durant for the first time, and although Iguodala looked at Harden, he has been paying attention to Durant's movements and can be caught up at any time!
After Durant got the ball, he first leaned on Hayward with his back, because of the height problem, after Hayward was short enough to resist Durant, the head gap seemed even bigger!
Durant just leaned in slightly, and then directly turned over and jumped!
Hayward jumped up and reached out for the first time to block it! However, the height gap was too big, and the ball just sealed Durant's face, and it didn't touch the ball at all.
Iguodala on the other side didn't expect Durant to turn around so crisply, so he didn't have time to make up for it.
"Huh~"
Scored easily, Durant turned the score into 30:36!
The Thunder are still 6 points behind!
"Bag clip! The bag clamp is a little tighter! ”
Han Miao was off the field, put her hands in a trumpet shape to her mouth, and shouted at the field!
"Give me the ball."
Yao Ming is relatively calm, it doesn't matter, it's normal for Durant to throw it, and it's just two points.
For the current Thunder's inner line, Yao Ming is the kind that can't be stopped, so he entered the inner line, and two people from the Thunder's side suddenly came up to resist Yao Ming!
Livingston passed the ball to Yao Ming, probably not very accustomed to Yao Ming's method of receiving the ball, the ball he passed was not very good, and after Yao Ming got the ball, he was already caught by the two people on the Thunder inside.
"Hmm......"
This is indeed a little troublesome, because he was clamped, Yao Ming was not very good at exerting his strength for a while, so he planned to let Livingston reorganize after passing this ball!
However, after Yao Ming passed the ball, he noticed that something was wrong, and a figure had already crept over, and before Livingston could catch the ball, this person reached out and intercepted the ball with his big hand.
Durant! He broke the ball and it worked!
"It's not good, back defense, back defense!"
Yao Ming saw that the ball was broken, and hurriedly asked everyone to retreat.
After Durant broke the ball, he passed to Harden who was running at the front for the first time!
In terms of fast breaking, the Thunder are still very good.
Iguodala retreated quickly, and Harden was soon caught up as well!
However, Harden's fast attack is also very fast, and the moment Iguodala retreats, Harden has completed the three-step action!
Let Harden complete three steps, Iguodala has no choice, he was leaned on for a layup, not to mention, and was fouled!
“2+1”!
"James! James! James! ”
The fans at Ford Center are happy, this is their Super Sixth Man! It's to play "2+1"!
"It's okay Andre, this kid seems to follow the path of Manu, and this European step and foul is very Manu-like."
Yao Ming comforted Iguodala, what a powerful existence Ginobili is, this Harden actually has the feeling of being on par with Ginobili.
Iguodala didn't speak anymore, and Ginobili didn't have no defense, so he naturally knew how terrible Ginobili was.
And Harden made a foul just now, Iguodala deeply understands, he obviously tried very hard to avoid physical contact, but in the end he still did not dodge.
Therefore, Iguodala has recognized Harden's strength in his heart.
Scoring steadily, Harden helped the team turn the score into 33:36! Only three points away!
"Attack!"
Livingston got the ball and served the ball quickly, and after only 3 points away, Livingston was also a little anxious.
The mistake just now, although Yao Ming didn't notice Durant's actions when he passed, it was true that Livingston didn't react just now.
"Not good! Sean can't do this ball! ”
Han Miao shouted, Livingston is too anxious, he can't fight fast at this time!
"Smack!"
Sure enough, the route of the pass was intercepted, and it was Westbrook who was responsible for the interception!
"Hey!"
After the break, Westbrook could have made his own shot, but instead of doing so, he made a pass and threw the ball into the hands of Durant from beyond the three-point line!
This time, Iguodala and Hayward both defended in place, but Durant's move this time was to step back!
Step-back three-pointer! Durant, this is a master of the arts, bold!
"Leaning back?"
Hayward and Iguodala were both stupid, originally thinking that this time they should be able to prevent it, but they actually used a backward shot!
With a three-pointer from a back, combined with Durant's height and arm length, Hayward and Iguodala can only be useless this time.
"Huh~"
Three points scored! Durant, chase the score!
Brooks waved his hand off the court to celebrate, that's it, this is the combat power that the Thunder Three Youths should have!
"Sean, give me the ball later."
When Livingston was still blaming himself, Yao Ming came over and patted him on the shoulder to express comfort, and, from Yao Ming's tone, Livingston heard only infinite fighting spirit.
Is this a preparation, one-on-three?
