Chapter 486: James Harden (3/4!) )

Looking back, Durant is still in a low position.

Battier switched to Durant at this time.

Durant turned and threw his back back, and Battier, who was experienced, jumped early, and his trademark blindfolded defense directly blocked Durant's view.

In addition to not being able to prevent Kobe, Battier can make most of the league's scorers clear.

"Bang!"

Although the man is tall and has long arms, he is cold and out of sight, and Durant's shot is still out.

But at this moment, Perkins stuck Yao Ming, and Ibaka pressed Carter to grab the offensive rebound, and then scored directly with the basket.

Although the old Carter can still jump, it is also very difficult to meet a big forward who is stronger than himself.

When the Cavaliers went to the frontcourt, it was still Paul and Yao Ming's blocking, and the Thunder's defense also changed, Westbrook went to make up for Yao Ming, and Sofrosa used his speed to help defend Paul under the basket.

Paul threw the ball and passed it to Carter on the outside, who received the ball and made a three-point shot.

"Bang!"

The ball hit the rebound and bounced into the basket, and Carter's three-pointer also scored.

Battier, Carter, and Green all have a stable three-point shot, and the Cavaliers' lineup is full of space, and the Thunder can't solve it all at once.

On the one hand, the talent is overflowing, and on the other hand, the space is full, and no one can limit the other party well for a while.

In the first quarter, the main forces of both sides played almost the whole game.

The score was 36-31, and the Thunder held a five-point lead.

In the second quarter, both sides gave the main team time to rest, and they both switched to a full bench lineup.

On the Cavaliers' side, Jeremy Lin and Butler on the outside, Hill and Artest on the front, and Whiteside at center.

On the Thunder's side, Fisher and James Harden on the perimeter, Antoine Jamison and Nick Collison on the front, and Nazr Mohammed at center.

The Cavaliers' offense, Jeremy Lin dribbled to the frontcourt and organized the offense directly.

Hill and Butler went out with a cover and an empty basket, respectively.

Jeremy Lin flicked the ball to Hill, who shot from mid-range.

"Huh!"

The ball goes into the net.

The Cavaliers' bench lineup, like the starters, already has a mature tactical system.

Fisher dribbled to the frontcourt and handed the ball directly to Harden.

Although the position on the court is that of shooting guard, Harden is the playmaker of the Thunder's bench lineup.

Jamison pulled to the high post to block and pick-and-roll, and Harden took the ball and went straight to the basket.

He's fast.

Hill's reaction was not slow, and he went straight up.

"Bang!"

However, Harden was still very strong, and he directly knocked away Hill and threw a shot at Whiteside.

"Bang!"

The ball went over Whiteside's fingertips and straight into the board.

The ball bounces and falls into the net.

Harden's shot went in.

On the Cavaliers' offense, Jeremy Lin took the initiative to find Hill's pick-and-roll, using his speed to shake off Jamison and insert it into the basket.

At this time, Collison used his excellent movement speed to take a position under the basket, and his hands were high.

Jeremy Lin's layup was disrupted and missed, and Muhammad used his experience to jam Whiteside for a defensive rebound.

The Thunder played a counter-attack, and Harden dribbled from the backcourt to the frontcourt, shook off Hill and Butler in succession, and rushed to the frontcourt for a layup that caused Jeremy Lin's pull foul.

With both free throws, Harden scored all of the Thunder's points in the second quarter.

The Cavaliers' offense, Hill's high post playmaking, Artest's cut-and-go layup.

Mohammed's block interfered and Artest's shot slipped out of the basket.

Collison added a defensive rebound.

Jeremy Lin shouted at this time to retreat, and the Cavaliers didn't give the Thunder another chance to play a fast break.

Harden dribbles straight to the frontcourt.

"Bag clip! Watch out for the bag clip! Casey got up and shouted at the team.

Pick-and-roll for Harden and Jamison.

Hill and Butler went straight to Harden, who was holding the ball.

Harden gives the ball to Jamison at the top of the arc.

"Bang!"

Jamison's three-point shot missed.

After rejecting Tang Tian to join the Thunder last summer, Jamison took on the role of backup forward for the Cavaliers, but because of the presence of Durant and Ibaka, he did not play much playing time, and his statistics declined significantly, and his form was also affected.

The Cavaliers' offense, Jeremy Lin and Hill's cooperation cut to the basket, and this time his decisiveness caused a foul on Mohammed's beater.

Hit both free throws.

The difference in points on the field is still 5 points.

“OKC! OKC! ”

The fans began to cheer for the home team under the guidance of the DJ.

Harden broke through with the ball in the frontcourt, and the Cavaliers also wrapped it.

Instead of continuing to lunge in this time, Harden dribbled back to the three-point line and called for a second pick-and-roll.

This time Collison came out to block the dismantle.

Collison isn't as tall as Jamison, but he's wider than Jamison, which blocks the way and leaves some space.

Harden stepped straight to the shot from beyond the three-point line.

Artest squeezed past Collison in the next second, jumping up the block.

Harden was knocked over and the referee blew the whistle.

"Huh!"

And at this moment, the ball goes straight into the net!

It's a 3+1!

"James~~ Harden!!"

In the shouts of the live DJ who stretched out the volume, the cheers of the fans exploded directly.

Harden was also excited, and after getting up, he beat his chest and yelled twice at the audience.

Harden hit a free throw, and he scored seven straight points in the second quarter to help the Thunder stretch the deficit to nine points.

A very dangerous point difference.

Tang Tian was thoughtful at this time.

The Harden on the scene is far inferior to the "bearded" Harden in the Rockets period, but his offensive skills seem to have been polished, and what he lacks is only experience and stability.

The Cavaliers are not easy to play on this bench.

Harden hit a free throw, and the Thunder hit a small 8-4 surge.

The Cavaliers' offense didn't score, and Harden turned around and took advantage of the containment to give the ball to Collison, who also scored a cut-in shot under the basket.

At 46-35, the Thunder's lead came to 11 points.

Tang Tian stretched out his hand and called a timeout again.

After the timeout, Tang Tian replaced all the main players except Yao Ming, and Vallejo also came on to replace Whiteside.

The Thunder's bench offense is ferocious, so let the game enter the main rotation time early.

Paul's playmaking in the frontcourt, waiting for his teammates to open up space, beckoning Vallejo's block.

The Thunder wanted to clamp Paul, but Vallejo's body was very thick and directly blocked Fisher, Paul faced Collison with an acceleration and scored directly with a low hand layup.

Harden's dribble breakthrough in the frontcourt met the bag again, pulled out to the three-point line and then shot back for three points, but this time Battier switched defenses much faster than Artest, and a trademark blindfold directly blocked Harden's shooting vision.

"Bang!"

Harden missed a three-pointer, Vallejo picked up a defensive rebound, turned to Carter, and the Cavaliers played a fast break.

Paul receives the ball in the front court and changes direction to get past Harden and scores.

After a 4-0 run, the Cavaliers narrowed the deficit to seven points.

Brooks couldn't sit still, so he turned around and called all the main forces up.

Tang Tian's adjustment forced him to change.

Harden caused Carter's blocking foul, and the game went to dead ball, and the Thunder also replaced all the main players on the court.
