Congolese Sergi. Ibaka blocked Nowitzki's inevitable layup, and after the Thunder attacked, "Old Fish" Fischer's jumper was interfered with by Dirk from the defense and missed.

The two teams played two rounds in a row, however, this was already the norm at the end of the third quarter. The originally wonderful game suddenly became boring because of the absence of Yiyang and Durant. Nowitzki, who is no longer young, is difficult to compete with Ibaka, and the Thunder, who have lost Harden and Westbrook, also responded with a "civilian lineup".

Scoring on both sides suddenly came to a standstill, and fans watching the game in front of the TV were drowsy. Presti, the general manager of the Thunder team in the luxury box, didn't know how many glasses of red wine he had drunk, and he couldn't believe that the game at this time and the half that had just ended were played by the same two teams.

"After losing the two superstars, Yi and Durant, the game became quite dull. But it is worth mentioning that in Nowitzki and Darren. At Collisson's insistence, the Mavericks gradually narrowed the gap a little. They were 17 points behind at half-time, but now they are just nine points away from equalizing the score. I guess that's an outcome that all Thunder fans don't want to see. Because when Yiyang returns to the court in the fourth quarter, the 9-point difference will definitely be filled quickly! ”

"You can't say the same about Charles, the reason why the Thunder are weak on offense now is because KD, the three-time scoring champion, is not there. The fourth quarter will be back, and so will Kevin. At that time, it is not certain whether the score will be pulled away or narrowed, and in the first half, Durant went all out, but the difference widened to 17 points. Next to Barkley, O'Neal was still in opposition. The 9-point difference is indeed not big, but who can beat who can beat Yiyang and Durant is much more complicated than the 9-point difference.

While the commentators were arguing about this, an electronic beep sounded. At the end of the third quarter, the Thunder maintained the lead, and the Mavericks narrowed the gap. At this time, the TV cameras were all aimed at Yiyang and Durant. The performance of these two guys in the last quarter of the game will directly affect the final outcome!

"You've done a great job, at least the Thunder guys didn't pull the gap apart again! But don't take it lightly, the hard part is yet to come. When the players were all off the pitch, Carlisle clapped his hands. Also, you play at the beginning of the fourth quarter, I want you to hold on for a whole quarter, no problem, right!? ”

Hearing the news that he was about to play a whole section, Yiyang was not surprised. If it weren't for this, Carlisle wouldn't have replaced himself early to rest.

So, after Nowitzki, the Mavericks made an "OK" gesture and nodded slightly. Yiyang still didn't say a word, but he gave the team enough confidence.

"Kevin, don't hide in the fourth quarter of the game, bring out your strongest firepower! Remember, you have unlimited firing rights! I allow you to shoot anywhere, anytime! As long as you can bring victory, I don't care what you do! "On the other side, Coach Brooks also played his strongest trump card.

Durant, who has rested for a while, is already ready to move, look at Russell, this time, we refuse to fail!

The short intermission period seemed to the fans to be very long. Everyone knows that Yiyang and Durant are destined to play a hot performance like Mars hitting the Earth in the next 12 minutes. Durant wants to keep his home court, while Yiyang wants to continue the team's good momentum. It's a war without a draw, and both the MVP and the three-time scoring champion have to come up with the real thing to kill each other.

As the players walked onto the court, the referee motioned for the Thunder to kick off from the baseline. There was a burst of laughter from fans in the stands at the Chesapeake Energy Arena as the Mavericks overused Nowitzki and Collison in the third quarter, forcing Carlisle to rotate at the start of the fourth quarter. Looking at the Mavericks' lineup on the court at this time, the Thunder fans almost didn't laugh off their big teeth.

Once glamorous, but now almost forgotten. Jay who played decently in his rookie season and didn't have many highlights. Claude. Yi Jianlian, who only played 41 games in the regular season and averaged only 5.2 points per game, and Troy Murphy, who you don't even think he has retired.

"Rick. What is Carlisle doing!? "It's not just the Thunder fans, but even Barkley is furious when he sees the lineup the Mavericks field.

"It seems that Rick. Coach Carlisle raised the white flag in advance, and even if he was present, it was difficult for the four teammates around him to be driven. To put it bluntly, the four of them aren't even playoff-caliber players. Does Carlisle still expect the myth of the best match between Yi and Mayo to be recreated? "This time, O'Neal's pace is surprisingly consistent with Barkley's, and no one can understand the lineup sent by Carlisle!

However, Cardinal, who had retired from the home at this time, giggled at the TV. The Dallas Mavericks never use people who can't be trusted! If you ask Bosh, he will surely tell you that he has not forgotten the horrors of being dominated by Cardinal back then. Wasn't Cardinal also a fringe player on the bench at that time? Push back a few years, isn't Yiyang wearing the Mavericks' jersey back then also considered a stupid substitution? Carlisle, this guy, never uses people indiscriminately!

Seeing that the Mavericks' on-court lineup is so "easy to bully", the Thunder team is naturally full of confidence. This group of guys is so confident that they dare to let Perkins, a center with almost no offensive ability, scold the inside.

Although Yi Jianlian and Murphy are not interior monsters, when Perkins jumps and the Mavericks' two interior players come up at the same time, the strong Perkins still feels very difficult.

In the air, Perkins forced the ball to the basket. However, when the referee did not blow the whistle, this time Hu Da's attack naturally failed to hit.

"While Murphy and Yi weren't great defensively, Perkins' shot choices were too rash." Barkley shook his head, the Thunder were wasting their chances.

Although the offense failed, the Thunder players were not worried. We can't score, can we score with a bunch of ridiculous Mavericks?

In everyone's eyes, the only threat to the Mavericks is Yiyang! As long as you look at the death of Yiyang, it is even if you see the Mavericks' offense to death.

Therefore, when Yiyang broke through with the ball, people could see that the Thunder seemed to shrink back towards Yiyang. Yiyang seemed to be a soldier carrying a bag of explosives, bravely rushing into the encirclement of the place.

Just when everyone thought that Yiyang was going to die, the No. 1 guard jumped up and threw the ball outside the three-point line. Outside the three-point line, Troy. Murphy and Yi Jianlian, the two inside lines, are waiting for the ball! A lineup with two inside lines pulled outside the three-point line, I have to admit that Carlisle's tactical arrangement is really bold!

The basketball passed to Murphy, and the white man shot unhurriedly, looking very soft to the touch.

The Thunder players stared up at the basketball blankly, all waiting to fight back. However, it was this almost forgotten Murphy who hit a crucial three-pointer in the playoffs!

"Three-point hit! Troy. Murphy! When he received the basketball, there were no defenders within two meters of him! The Thunder chose to block Yi, while Carlisle chose to bet on the play of these role players! Barkley wanted to scold Murphy when he saw the shot, but when the ball went in, the guy immediately changed his tune. Sure enough, no matter how bad an impression you made before, as long as you can score goals, you can earn respect!

The Thunder didn't expect them to be at Troy. Players like Murphy were deflated, but what they didn't expect was that Durant's three-point shooting was actually in the middle of Jay. Claude stumbled out of the frame under the interference of his life.

Jay. Although Claude has average talent, he is really positive in his play. When Durant jumps out of his hand, Crowder is like a lion pounced on his prey. He is fierce, bloodthirsty, and desperate, even if he wants to take Durant down entirely, he will not hesitate to do so!

Under this ferocious defense, Durant messed up the shooting rhythm. Ibaka and Perkins wanted to show off their rebounding ability in front of Yi Jianlian and Murphy. It would be better if you could jump straight to the spot after grabbing the rebound.

But it's a pity that Murphy and Yi Jianlian did their best to jam the Thunder's interior combination. rebound, then handed over to Yiyang to receive.

Yiyang holds the ball, needless to say, directly stepped on the "accelerator" to the bottom!

The fans seemed to hear a "whoosh", and the supercar from the mysterious Orient hit the basket and easily made a layup.

Yiyang didn't dunk because he knew he had to conserve as much energy as possible now. Playing the full 12 minutes of the fourth quarter was no easy feat.

The Thunder, who led by 17 points at halftime, now have a four-point lead in their hands. From 17 to 4 points, Thunder fans didn't react to what was happening.

Yiyang's ability to bring the team to survive against adversity has really reached the level of MVP!

The Thunder fought back again, and Durant still had the last shot executed by Durant, who had unlimited fire.

Jay. No matter how positive Crowder is, there is also a difference of ten Marion between him and Durant. This time, Durant's realistic fake shot directly shook Crowder away. Rookies are always rookies, and it's easy to get shaken.

Durán made a decisive breakthrough after picking up Crowder, took a step and raised his long arms to start killing under the basket.

Yi Jianlian actively made up for Durant, Durant did not hesitate, how could he stop him with just one Yi Jianlian!

So, the two bumped into each other solidly. Yi Jianlian's body is already very strong among Asian players, but he still can't withstand such a "thin" Durant.

"Ahh Yi Jianlian deliberately screamed and fell directly to the ground. The basketball went into the net, and Durant signaled to the referee that this is a two-plus-one!

The referee blew the whistle, and the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena erupted in cheers. But a second later, the audience fell silent. The referee pointed to the technical table and gestured for the Thunder to attack and foul!

"Offensive foul! Hahaha, Yi Jianlian has made meritorious contributions! The players we thought were the least useful, but they all showed their worth! ”

Yi Jianlian bravely made a foul, which naturally won him the cheers of his teammates. Yiyang and Murphy reached out and pulled the highest-level player in the Chinese team system. Who said he was in the NBA and didn't help the team at all?

Offense fouls, and the Mavericks get the ball. Yiyang advanced again, and if this attack was successful, the Thunder's advantage would be almost exhausted.

With the lesson of the last time, this time, the Thunder deliberately followed Murphy and Yi Jianlian closely, preventing these two interior players from getting three-point opportunities.

The Thunder inner line was emptied, which was simply a hotbed for Yiyang to break through.

Reggie. Jackson? This guy is completely a master who sits and waits for his teammates behind him to make up for the defense. Yiyang didn't even change direction, just a change of rhythm with an emergency stop. Jackson wiped beside him.

Durant came to make up for the defense, and the offensive foul just now made KD hold back his anger.

Yiyang didn't seem to have any intention of escaping, his eyes were fixed on the basket, and he was about to take three steps to attack!

Just as Yiyang took the first step, his gaze fell on Jie, who was standing in the bottom corner at this time. Claude. Durant's eyes became frightened, and he hurried back to defense. Claude is a projection player. Giving him an open shot is no different from giving him three points! Yiyang, this guy, is so cunning! But this time, your breakthrough goal will not be successful!

If there is someone in this alliance who can dissect Yiyang's eyes, then he is no different from being able to predict the future. Is there anyone in this world who can predict the future? I can't say, but this is definitely not Durant.

Yiyang looked at Claude, this is just a feint!

When Durant retreated to the defense, Yiyang's passing action still did not appear! Under Durant's frightened eyes, Yiyang was able to pass past him who was hesitant.

A beautiful three-step layup, the fans didn't see anything good. But Durant was deceived by Yiyang's eye feints.

The basketball fell into the net, and the difference was only 2 points. Scott. Brooks called a halt to the game, and the Mavericks' "ridiculous" lineup made the young coach unable to laugh at all.

What about Durant? He looked at Yiyang with a confused expression, and then at Jie. Claude. The point difference, just 2 points left?

"My name is Durant, and I'm panicking right now."

After seeing Durant's expression, Chinese fans ridiculed it on the Internet.
