Westbrook then continued to play a strong individual offense, his hand was smooth in this game, continuous kills of the Kings' interior line, continuous blood-boiling heavy dunks, and at the same time, the goddess of luck also favored him in the first quarter, several unreasonable offenses were beaten by him, and Westbrook scored 14 points in the first quarter of the game!

However, Westbrook's ferocious performance did not discourage the Kings, and the Kings also responded, Tyreck's individual breakthrough was a flashpoint that the Thunder could not ignore, and Cousins' power on the interior began to show.

Cousins singled Perkins, and unless Cousins had a terrible hand, Cousins could score the ball by all means. Perkins is big, tonnage, and it is not false to meet the dead muscle stick under the basket, but Cousins is also an inside big man, and at the same time, he is more than a notch better than Perkins in terms of flexibility, and at the same time, he has solid low-post offensive skills and medium and long-range shooting range, and Perkins is completely controlled by Cousin.

Put Cousins to play Perkins alone, that is, there is a high probability of sending points, but the Thunder team can't easily remove Perkins, after all, the Thunder's interior Perkins is already reliable, Nick. Krisson and Nazr. Muhammad also can't deal with Cousins, and Perkins' inside meat shield can also block the breakthrough led by Tyrek to a certain extent. In such a situation, the help of interior defender Sergei Ibaka is needed, but it will give West, who is stable in the middle range, an opportunity to take advantage of it, which allows the Kings to maintain an advantage in the interior confrontation.

After the first quarter, the Thunder led the Kings by just one point at 29-28, which can be said to be even.

"Brian, judging from the first quarter, it should be a tough game for the team today...... The Kings are in good shape in this game, and the two cores are Terek. Evans & DeMarcus. Cousins got into the rhythm of the game early, and the rest of the players played well, and still didn't open up the score gap despite Russell's outburst......"

"That's a good point, Grant, but don't forget, the team still has Kevin! Kevin's desire to attack in the first session was not very strong, only three shots, and if Kevin had opened up, I think the game would have been a different situation......"

At the end of the intermission, the game was back in the game, and the Kings had Thomas Jr., Jimmy, Cosby, Farid, and Cousins on the court, and the Thunder had Reggie. Jackson, Harden, Durant, Nick. Collisson, Perkins.

Isaiah. Thomas is not much liked by coach Westafar because of his height, he is an 11-time rookie with Jimmy, but Jimmy has already secured the starting line with his own defense, and Thomas Jr. still has few opportunities.

However, at present, Thomas Jr.'s playing order has overwhelmed the veteran Udri who is also a point guard, Udri has declined rapidly this season, the offense can't shoot, the defense is a big colander, and it basically has no effect except for being able to control the rhythm of the next game, and it also accounts for about $7 million in salary space, and there is a good chance that Udri will be swept away after this season.

Although Thomas Jr. is equal to one less person on the court, but judging from the performance so far, Thomas Jr.'s offense still has a hand, good projection and dexterous dribbling give him the ability to become a master of chaos, although Coach Westfair does not use Thomas Jr. very much, but he also thinks that Thomas Jr. should be able to become a bench scorer.

Thomas Jr. is on the court, the offensive ability of the backcourt is guaranteed, and the defense depends on Jimmy to wipe his ass, and the Thunder's backcourt at this time, although Westbrook is resting, there is also Harden, the super sixth man, although his partner Jackson is more than brave and inexperienced as a rookie, but with Harden, the strength of the backcourt is far better than the Kings backcourt without Tyrek at this time.

However, the most threatening point on the Thunder court at this time is not Harden, as the courtside commentator Brian Brown. Davis said that it would be terrible for Durant to get into scoring mode, and with Harden's outside containment, Durant began to release in this quarter.

Durant continued to score points with unsolvable mid-range shots, and although Cosby, who was opposite him, was 2.06 meters tall, he was still one quarter shorter than Durant, which is exactly what Durant is terrible about, the height of the center, the position of the small forward, and the skill of the guard!

Usually when Cosby defends, although his defensive skills are average, it is reasonable to rely on his height, arm span and good defensive awareness, but when he encounters Durant, even his advantage has become a disadvantage. However, the Kings still gave Cosby plenty of opportunities in this game, after all, the Thunder still have Westbrook and Harden to defend, and Cosby's height at the No. 3 position is already superior, and no player of Durant's level can really stop him.

"Haha, Grant, you see I'm not wrong, Kevin is starting to exert his strength, Kevin's personal ability, no one in the Kings team can target him, and the previous game also relied on Jimmy. Butler and Cuarón. Butler's wheel defense accelerated Kevin's physical exertion to affect his shooting rate, in this game, because Durant did not have too many individual offenses in the first quarter, the Kings did not arrange tactics for Jimmy, who had the strongest defensive ability on the outside, to defend Durant, and now it is time to open up the point difference in a wave! ”

However, the situation on the court did not go as Davis expected, and the Kings' Cosby stepped up again at this time!

Cosby broke out once in the game against the Clippers at the beginning of the season, and his three-point shot made the Clippers taste pain, and in this game, Cosby, who was against Durant, tried the defensive end, but still couldn't stop Durant, and on the offensive end, Cosby also made the Thunder feel fear!

The back-to-back three-pointers made the Thunder complain, and although Durant frequently scored, Cosby was able to respond frequently.

Chase the three-point line and make a quick stop! Hit!

Thomas Jr. crosses, Cosby receives the ball and steps back to avoid the defense, three-point shot! Hit!

Shoot at Durant's defensive mid-range! Again!

Two consecutive three-point hits and a long-range two-point shot not only kept the score from pulling away, but also greatly boosted the team's morale!

Everyone watched the first goal calmly, and in the second and third times, Tyrek on the bench took the lead and shouted on the sidelines!

During this time, the Kings single-handedly resisted Durant with Cosby's performance!

Cosby on the field looked calm in the applause of his teammates, Cosby's talent is mediocre, he is destined to become a man of the year in the league, next season will also be the last year of his rookie contract, whether he can fight for a satisfactory contract is still unknown, but to be discreet, do his best on the court, and finally realize his value!
