Chapter 672: The Second Battle of the Finals
Yi Jianlian's on-site interview was reported after the game, but for Yi Jianlian is still a little "arrogant", the Thunder fans chose to shut up, of course, they don't think Yi Jianlian is right, but because the first game was lost, in terms of momentum, their side is now temporarily behind, in this case, they naturally can't say anything, but in their hearts, they are all holding their breath fiercely, they are all waiting for the Thunder team to play a streak of victories one day, they will definitely fight back, let Yi Jianlian know that their Oklahoma fans are not easy to mess with, and when the time comes, they will let Yi Jianlian know what is the dirtiest swear words in the world!
Damn it!
Why didn't you win?
Just a little bit!
Damn it!
As for now, they can only feel sorry for the Thunder team in their hearts, and they believe that if the game time can be a little more, the Thunder team will definitely be able to catch up with the score, because this team has found the rhythm of the finals in the back is something that everyone can see!
"Nice, we won the first race, so it's 100 percent that we will win the championship this year! It's finally time for New York to have a winning streak, damn it! I never dreamed that this would be the case today! ”
"We won! Hahaha, saying that this Thunder team is the 76ers of the year, these Thunder fans are still not convinced, now it's okay, the 76ers won one game that year, and now the Thunder team is afraid that it will be difficult to win a game! ”
"Yi is really amazing, this guy is actually the best basketball player on this planet, no, the best basketball player in this universe, if there are no aliens, I must say, bringing him to New York last year was really a very correct decision!"
The frustration of the Thunder fans is naturally the carnival of the New York team fans, and the fans of the New York Knicks are very excited about the Knicks winning the first game of the Finals, because in the history of the NBA Finals, 70% of the fans who won the first game won the final victory, with this probability, how could they not be excited?
They believe that this year's Grand Final winner will definitely be theirs, and after they get their first game win, it will all be decided!
……
"If we lose the first game, the whole series is over? Oh man, I suggest you make less jokes like this, because it's not funny at all, we're still fighting on the field, we're already full of fighting spirit, I don't think our fighting spirit is enough to change the outcome of the game, we're going to be one of the 30 percent, we'll see! ”
Before the start of the second game, Kevin Durant regained his confidence in front of the camera, and the remarks that he won the championship by winning the first game seemed to him to be absurd, and Kevin Durant bluntly said that their Thunder team would be one of those 30 percent!
"I'm sure we can do it!"
……
Kevin Durant showed full confidence in the interview before the start of the game, and in the game, he also showed a very good momentum from the beginning, he continued to run wild from the beginning, shooting 3 of 4, 2 of 2 free throws, and it took only 3 minutes to cut down 10 points!
And with his 10 points, the Thunder team led by 6 points 12-6 in the second game of the finals, still on the road!
"Kevin Durant was in great shape today!" Bill Wharton, who was in charge of commentating the game, sighed with emotion about Kevin Durant's ferocious scoring momentum in the game!
And Kevin Durant, who played so aggressively on the court, did not show any relaxation because of the team's scoring lead, his face was still calm, and he still expressed his own aggressiveness!
Obviously, he didn't let his guard down on the game just because the Thunder were ahead, and he still wanted to continue to open up the difference.
After losing in the first finals, he blamed himself and used a trumpet to spray with netizens on the Internet, all the rest of the time was observing the video of the game, and he reviewed all the situations he had in the first game to a certain extent, and after watching his performance in the first game, he only had one sentence for himself in the next game: no matter at any time, if you get the ball, don't hesitate, it is attack, because he is the soul of this team, On such a stage, if he is still grinding and chirping, thinking a lot, then how can he chase better, what he has to do now is to attack and attack, and only by constantly attacking can he maintain his aggressiveness in the following games and make the most contribution to the team!
In a word, all of this team, he resisted on his shoulders, it was his responsibility to lose, and he was the leader when he won!
"Huh!"
It's just that after the Thunder team got a 6-point difference, Yi Jianlian, who had been tepid before, also began to score, in fact, his score was not low, he had already scored 4 points, and he scored 4 points in 3 minutes, this efficiency is not low, and he only shot twice in total!
Scored 4 points in the middle twice, this is what Yi Jianlian did in the first three minutes!
Of course, because Kevin Durant's performance is so good, this makes this game so far, it feels like Yi Jianlian has not contributed!
But now, Kevin Durant is playing so fiercely, he has been helping his teammates find his state before, and Yi Jianlian, who is the first to assist and the second to attack, has to start the mode of attacking with all his might!
It was his first three-pointer of the game, and the ball crossed the perfect arc and fell into the basket!
Yi Jianlian's score came to 7 points!
"It seems that today's game will be a super show before the two small forwards!" Chris Webber watched Yi Jianlian also score 7 points, less than 4 minutes into the game, and then looked at Kevin Durant, who had already scored 10 points, he really felt that there was a possibility that two 50 plus points could be born in a game tonight.
Looking at Kevin Durant and Yi Jianlian, who are about the same height as him, but playing small forward at the No. 3 position, he also has to sigh with emotion, this era has really changed!
In his time, there was really no guy who was so tall and had such good projection skills and dribbling skills, but now, there are two such monsters in this era, and I have to say that from the perspective of fans, they are lucky!
Of course, from the opponent's point of view, this is a pity!
Chris Webber would love to play these two guys on the field!
"Huh!"
After Yi Jianlian scored, Kevin Durant, who had been scoring before, showed no signs of feeling cold at this time, and he directly completed the score.
Widening the margin back to 5 points!
Not just intentionally or unintentionally, in short, after Kevin Durant scored, Yi Jianlian also immediately passed the ball, holding the ball outside the three-point line and began to observe the Thunder's defensive lineup.
As Chris Webber predicted, the two monsters of this era are ready to split each other!
Kevin Durant took a step forward, and Ibaka behind him was ready to make up the defense, since there was someone to make up the defense, then Kevin Durant was going to force Yi Jianlian to break through!
In this way, Yi Jianlian can fall into their trap!
Willing to cooperate with teammates, this is also the biggest difference between Kevin Durant in the second game and the first game, in the previous game he has been thinking about and always wanting to do is to go to Yi Jianlian heads-up, and even want to complete the score in front of Yi Jianlian one-on-one.
It's just that now he doesn't think about this aspect of things anymore, he only thinks about scoring on the offensive end now, and the defense on the defensive end, as for how to score goals, whether it is a goal that he relies on his own strength to complete, whether it is a defense that he completes alone, he doesn't think about it anymore!
Obviously, the current Kevin Durant has let go of everything he compares with Yi Jianlian, what he wants to do now is to help the team win, except for this, he no longer thinks about any other distractions!
Since relying on teammates can better limit Yi Jianlian, why wouldn't he?
Yi Jianlian faced Kevin Durant's defense, he didn't hesitate, and plunged directly into the Thunder's defensive formation, he naturally saw the supplementary defense that Ibaka was preparing, but for him, such supplementary defense is nothing, he has a way to deal with it!
At the same time that Kevin Durant gave way to the position, Yi Jianlian accelerated directly, he rushed next to Kevin Durant, and Ibaka also pounced in time at this time.
Yi Jianlian had known that this guy had run in front of him, but Yi Jianlian didn't wait for Ibaka to run in front of him before making a move, he directly made a move to break through to the right side.
Ibaka watched him go to the right side, and quickly moved to the right, but when he was about to block in front of Yi Jianlian, Yi Jianlian suddenly changed direction and moved to the left, and at the same time, the ball in his right hand was also given to his left hand from behind.
Yi Jianlian took the last step with strength, jumped high, glided in the air, and went directly to the basket.
“!”
Ibaka's speed of defense was still quite fast, but at the same time as he jumped, Yi Jianlian had already slashed the ball into the basket.
When the ball entered the basket, the whole scene resounded with a huge cheer!
"Wow, how the hell is this action, Yi this ball will definitely become today's top five balls!" Drexler has a nickname called Glider, but now he is watching Yi Jianlian make this action, but he feels that this action should belong to Yi Jianlian!
The gliding stretch, as well as the lightness of the whole movement, if this ball goes to participate in this year's slam dunk contest, it will definitely be a 50-point dunk, not to mention that when he completed this dunk, he also completed the breakthrough of Kevin Durant and Ibaka, which added to the difficulty of this ball!
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
The whole scene also sounded shouts for Yi Jianlian, and these shouts made the atmosphere of the venue that was a little dull just now become hot at this moment!
And this atmosphere also makes the players on the court of the New York Knicks more combative at this moment!
Yi Jianlian saw everything in his eyes and began to defend with satisfaction, which is why he chose to complete a similar dunk, because only such a dunk can make the whole arena warm.
It's not that he didn't notice how quiet the audience was when Kevin Durant kept scoring, and he didn't fail to notice how jealous his teammates were about Kevin Durant's state before he completed this offense!
And now, after he completed this attack, it's all gone! Now the entire New York Knicks are alive again!
"Now the New York Knicks are going to start chasing points, and if the Thunder can't hold this time, then they will become very passive!"
In Bill Walton's opinion, the New York Knicks will have the upper hand in the coming period, and if the Thunder want to hold on to the advantage during this time, they will have to pay enough attention!
"Yi is really amazing!" In the end, he couldn't help but sigh Yi Jianlian, his dunk just now made people can't help but want to recall, it's too domineering!
And the rest of the game was just as Bill Walton expected, the New York Knicks found their offensive form, and the whole offense began to become fluid, Dragic, Petrus and David West all scored their first goals of the game.
While they continued to score, the situation on the whole court began to change fundamentally, although Kevin Durant was still scoring, but he could not guarantee a super high shooting rate as at the beginning, which also made him appear a lot of iron in the future, and as he struggled to support himself, the entire Thunder team also changed from leading by 5 points to falling behind by 3 points!
At the end of the first quarter, the New York Knicks led 34-31.
"I'm not worried that we are behind the score, after all, we are going to enter the game more slowly than the Thunder, but we adjusted our state well in the back, which allowed us to quickly play a wave of scoring that belongs to us, and with this wave of scoring, we also completed the reversal of the Thunder, the whole thing is as simple as that!"
"That's how we play!"
In an intermission interview, D'Antoni described taking the lead at the end of the first quarter as "this is how we played"! He didn't panic about falling behind in the middle of the race, which he thought was a possibility, and the end result proved that they solved the problem well!
