Chapter 158: Prevented!

Thunder head coach Scott. Brooks didn't call a timeout, the Thunder led by one point, and both teams had a full offensive opportunity each, and Coach Brooks chose to leave the offense to the star player on the court.

At the final decisive moment, the Thunder's on-court lineup is Westbrook, Harden, Durant, Ibaka, Perkins, which is the strongest lineup of the Thunder, and the Kings are Tyreck, Jimmy, Garcia, Farid, Cousins, the starting Cosby and West did not play, at this time it is the Thunder offense, Westaphal Coach needs a more mobile defense, although Cosby had a bright moment in this game, but at this time Coach Westfal still believes in Garcia, a veteran who has excellent defenseAt the same time, the Thunder will basically choose Westbrook, Harden, and Durant to end the offense, and Farid's vitality can also make him have a better defensive effect than West.

The Thunder served in the backcourt, Ibaka gave the ball to Westbrook, and in the face of the Kings' full-court man marking, Westbrook carefully held the ball and advanced to the front court with difficulty, at this time the Kings' opposition situation was like this, Tyrek defended Westbrook, Garcia defended Harden, Jimmy defended Durant, Fared defended Ibaka, and Cousins defended Perkins.

The Thunder now have a one-point lead, and the success rate is the success rate, and if this ball misses, the situation on the court will be turned upside down immediately.

At this time, the whole team of the Kings is also highly nervous, a goal is also crucial for them, if they can't prevent it, the opponent scores a two-point shot, then they still have a chance, but the pressure on the body will also be very heavy, if a three-pointer is scored, the Kings who are 4 points behind will fall into an extremely passive situation. However, once the Kings can defend this offense, the Kings, who are only one point behind after the transition between offense and defense, will have a variety of offensive options, and the Kings will also take the initiative on the court.

Westbrook controlled the ball in the front court, Durant ran from the baseline to the wing to ask for the ball, Westbrook glanced at Durant, and did not choose to pass to Durant, Durant waved at Westbrook, seeing that Westbrook ignored him, he had to spread his hands helplessly and start running again.

Westbrook has made up his mind that Westbrook intends to attack by himself, as the controller of the ball, he will not let go of the opportunity to end the game, Durant is in good shape today, but Westbrook's hand is not bad, he is confident enough to score this key goal!

Coach Brooks didn't call a timeout because the team was ahead at this point, he believed in the individual ability of the players on the court, and even if the ball didn't score, the Thunder would still have a back hand despite the difficulties.

Westbrook glanced at the timer, the time had passed 10 seconds, and at this time, his teammates also knew that Westbrook would choose to play by himself, and they opened up space for him, and Durant, who wanted to complete the offense by himself, also stood outside the three-point line.

Westbrook beckons Perkins to come up and cover for him, and Westbrook starts to cover around!

Tyrek is blocked by Perkins, Cousins switches to Westbrook!

The big defense made Cousins a little reluctant, Westbrook was too fast, but Cousins still tried his best to wave his arms sideways to defend Westbrook.

Westbrook still brushed Cousins with his footsteps and was about to break through the basket, but when Cousins and Tyrek switched defenses, the Kings had begun to shrink their defense, Jimmy returned to the interior from the outside, and Tyrek switched to Jimmy's position at the same time to target Harden on the outside, preventing Westbrook from breaking through the ball to Harden's outside shot.

Farid, who defended Ibaka, also moved to Westbrook, plus Cousins behind him and Jimmy, the Kings showed a three-man situation, Westbrook had no room to play the ball at this time, and there was little time left to attack, so he could only choose to attack by himself!

Face Farid, stretch your arms, and jump to the basket!

The body in the air against Farid, Farid is also afraid of fouls, the defensive action is not big, Westbrook pushed against Farid, and then changed hands in the air and threw a shot!

Jimmy leaps up from behind Westbrook!

Jimmy's fingertips rubbed against the ball in the air!

The pop-up box did not enter!!

As soon as Westbrook landed, he jumped up again to grab the rebound!

Farid and Cousins jump forward and back to compete for rebounds!

The three of them landed, Farid held the ball tightly in his arms, Tyrek, who was standing on the outside, hurriedly shouted for the referee to pause, and Coach Westphal on the sidelines and the Kings players on the court also shouted at the referee with excited expressions.

Westbrook, who didn't grab the rebound, sprinted to the referee with a look of resentment and signaled that Jimmy was interfering with the ball in defense, and several Thunder players also surrounded the referee and argued.

The referee ignored Westbrook's nonsense and signaled for the game to be timed and the Kings had the ball!

Everyone on the Kings immediately walked to the bench and gathered around Coach Westfair for their next offense, while Westbrook walked off the court with a curse and a wave of his arms......

"Alas, Russell's key offense didn't score! It's a bit bad for the team...... Grant, just that ball Jimmy. Does Butler interfere with the ball? ”

"Uh...... There shouldn't be ...... It's a pity that this goal didn't go in, the Kings did a good job of changing defense, I personally think this ball should be given to Kevin, Kevin has a very smooth hand today, Russell is still a little reluctant to play inside, and the results confirm this...... However, Russell is also in good form today, and there is no problem in choosing to attack on his own......"

"Anyway, now the team is going to face a test, but don't be too nervous, do a good job of defense, the Kings may not be able to play, and the last offense consumed 22 seconds, and now there are 30 seconds left before the end of the game, even if the Kings score, we will have a chance to put on a stunner!"

At this time, on the bench of the Kings team, Coach Westphale stood in the middle of the players, holding a tactical board, with a serious expression, and commanded very quickly: "Wait a while, Anthony and David will go up, Jimmy and Kenneth will go down, because even if we run out of 24 seconds of offensive time, the Thunder team can still attack once, so we don't pursue time consumption, just score it!" Tyrek, you control the rhythm, Anthony and Francisco are waiting for opportunities on the outside, and the Thunder will definitely stare at Tyrek and DeMarcus at the last moment, this ball is not designed with a specific finishing attacker, who has the opportunity to shoot, shoot decisively but not blindly! ”

When the timeout was over, Terec put his hand in front of everyone, and everyone reached out to put their hands together, "Grit your teeth!" Win the game! ”
