The Thunder played well, but when they looked at the score, they did not get closer.

The main team will defend, and the defense of the bench is not bad, especially after Wang tomorrow replaced Tyson Chandler, the twin tower combination of Tyson Chandler + Marcin Gortat has caused great trouble to the Thunder's interior line.

The Thunder's momentum declined and soon became inferior.

"Lack of internal line, lack of internal line." Brooks desperately wants a first-class center on the inside at this time, even if it's just blue-collar enough, and he is really envious of the high-quality cover of the Kings.

Later, the Thunder did trade Perkins, and I don't know if it was because of the impact of the series meeting with the Kings.

At halftime, the Kings led the Thunder by 16 points, 57-41.

In the eyes of Thunder fans, the Thunder team is purely not smooth, and young players may not be comfortable playing the playoffs for the first time, and it is very normal for them to feel stiff.

"Bell Bell Bell ~"

The Thunder team is constantly playing iron.

Time passed halftime, and the nine-man rotation deployed by Wang tomorrow also proved from the side that the Kings are more confident than the Thunder.

Brooks had no way to crack the Kings' interior offensive tactics, and the Thunder's own perimeter did not explode, and the margin once stretched to more than 20 points.

In the end, most of the fourth quarter turned into garbage time, and Wang Mingming waved his hand and replaced all the players who had not yet played on the playoff list.

Get everyone in the playoff atmosphere to improve their adaptability.

At the end of the game, the Kings defeated the Thunder 108-89.

Six Kings scored in double figures, and the highest scorer was Artest with 19 points.

In addition, Chris Bosh had 18 points and Tyson Chandler had 18 points.......

The Thunder were even worse, the superstar who was given high hopes, the league's scoring leader Durant, scored only 13 points on 4-of-17 shooting, and Westbrook scored only 6 points on 2-of-10 shooting, and also had 5 turnovers.

The team's twin stars have only played like this, not to mention the performance of the others.

Losing has become a natural thing.

After the game, head coach Brooks understood the team's performance on the court.

"The vast majority of our players are in the playoffs for the first time, and to be honest, there are some problems on the court, but I believe these problems can be solved and avoided, and the series is still very long, enough for us to make adjustments, enough for the next games, to get better shape."

Durant talked about the Kings' defense.

"The Kings are underrated defensively, they have the most terrifying outside defensive combination in the league, Jason Kidd, Ron Artest, the Kings form a defensive gate, and their defense is very layered, and little by little it wears away our offensive sharpness."

Westbrook is still scrappy.

"We're not going to lose, we're going to win it back, it's not a big deal."

.......

Most people still think that Thunder is too young and pays tuition miserably.

But the Thunder still have shining points, such as the substitute Ibaka, the Congolese boy, played 19 minutes and contributed 3 blocks, one of which was a volleyball cap, putting DeRozan's layup cap to the audience.

The Kings inherited Wang Mingming's style, and as soon as the players were interviewed, the opponent was respectable, the opponent had great potential, and the sky was the limit.

"That's right, the Thunder are the best Young Guards I've ever seen, and it's rare to see such young people in history, who can have such fighting power, who are impactful and never admit defeat on the court. Today, they are proud of the Thunder, and tomorrow, the Thunder is proud of them. ”

........

The final game of the second day of the playoffs was the Mavericks vs. the Lakers.

As early as halfway through the game between the Thunder and the Kings, the two teams began to face each other, and after the Thunder and Kings played, the Lakers and Mavericks played the first quarter of the game.

The two teams have old grudges, the Mavericks are one of the top three in Texas, and the former Western overlord, now has a bit of a sense of decline.

The Lakers, after Kobe Bryant crossed the 30-year-old hurdle, ushered in a blowout development, and some young people in the team grew into first-class stars, which gave Kobe Bryant great help.

One of the most famous is the Twin Towers.

Al Horford and Andrew Bynum have grown into the most competitive interior combination in the league, especially Al Horford, a young man who can play inside and out, has outstanding rebounding ability, and has a good hand for the ball, which complements Kobe Bryant.

As a result, the Lakers have also achieved impressive results this season.

In the first game of the first round of the Western Conference, at home, the Lakers easily defeated the incoming Mavericks and won 101-87.

Kobe Bryant scored 27 points in the game, Al Horford had 21 points and 10 rebounds, and Andrew Bynum had 17 points and 14 rebounds.

Two days later, Sacramento, Arco Arena.

The Kings host the Thunder.

After a game of baptism, the Thunder team has matured a lot, at least at the beginning, the offense and the Kings are on par.

Among them, Durant has a hot hand and continues to pull out, and Artest is also very powerless against this kind of offensive trick that purely relies on his height and arm span.

This is already pure talent suppression.

In the 8th minute of the first quarter, after Westbrook broke through, he passed to Durant, who flew up and hit Tyson Chandler's head with a powerful slam dunk.

The skills are astonishing.

By this time, Durant had already scored 10 points and behaved like Michael Jordan.

Wang called a timeout tomorrow because of this, and simply replaced Artest, replaced Tyson Chandler, and played a small lineup with Bosh as the center and Kidd as the defender.

The Kings flanked a bunch of shooters, with a dynamic lineup and a wide offensive range.

If it is said that the king's team just now is a heavy tank, integrating attack and defense, then the king's team at this time is a light cavalry, with a fierce attack and an average defense.

Bosh feels that he is wide all around, and he is no longer confined to the interior attack, but starts from the three-point line, and plays his strengths, should shoot in the middle, and break through.

In the blink of an eye, the Thunder were caught off guard by the king's sudden change in pace.

Among them, Cosby and Nocioni hit three-pointers respectively, and Bosh's breakthrough and Kidd's conduction all made the Thunder's outside defense porous.

"Follow the people, not the ball!"

Brooks stood up, no longer able to sit calmly on the sidelines, raised his arms, and shouted loudly.

And Wang Mingming, at this time, was smiling, the white tactical board was put away, looking at the chaotic battle situation on the field, his heart was already settled.
