At the beginning of the third quarter, both sides maintained a very high success rate, the Thunder did not concede a single shot, and although the Lakers missed a few times, Turner twice grabbed offensive rebounds to help the Lakers get a second offensive chance, and also forced the score to be tied in a state of deuce. Such a wonderful back-to-back offensive round made the audience watch heartily, but they didn't know which side's hot form on the offensive end would end first.

Wei Shao dribbled to the front court and gave it to Adams at the top of the arc, Robertson retreated from the other elbow area to receive the ball outside the three-point line, Durant and Wei Shao switched positions and received Robertson's pass at the top of the arc, borrowed Adams to cover the inside, and threw directly in front of the free throw line, Durant's throwing Hougist was also unattainable from the front, not to mention that he was also slowed down by Adams. Durant hit an easy shot and once again maintained the Thunder's all-out shooting percentage in the third quarter.

Durant smiled at Haugist, "I'm sorry, I got another chance to make a move!" ”

"Sure enough, you're showing off to me again! Shooting opportunities are everywhere in the Lakers, as long as they can run out of the open space, they can receive the ball, and those who have the ability to attack independently are even better, and every offensive round has a chance to control the ball. The only downside is that because your offensive involvement will be high, it will be much more tiring than playing 1 round and watching 5 rounds in the Thunder! Hougist began to show the Lakers' superiority, consciously or unconsciously, as if trying to recruit Durant.

"Hah! What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Are you soliciting me? Are you serious? Recruiting teammates less than halfway through the regular season? Still want to poach the main stars of next year's defending champions? Durant couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't you understand! And it's not that I'm recruiting the main stars of next year's defending champions, it's that the main stars of next year's defending champions are recruiting you! Hougist smiled back with confidence.

The two retreated to the Thunder half court together, the reeds went to the front court to give the ball to the wing Hoggist, Haugist passed to Turner at the top of the arc very casually, and then suddenly started to cut to the basket, Durant hurriedly retreated, but Hougist made a sharp stop and retreated to open space with Durantra, Turner hurriedly threw the ball to Hoggist, because Hougist himself threw the space, Adams hurriedly followed the ball to make up for the defense.

But Turner played the trick of Hougist's fake pass, he took a two-handed pass and threw the ball to the wing, but he didn't let go after swinging his arm, the ball was still in his hand, and seeing that he had deceived Adams, Turner dribbled inside and hit a jumper in front of the free throw line.

"Just like this, in the Lakers, people who have the ability to attack on their own have the right to dominate the ball!" Hoggist smiled at Durant.

When the Thunder came to the frontcourt, Wei Shao gave Adams at the top of the arc, Adams gave Robertson to the wing, and Robertson gave Durant who went around to the top of the arc to receive the ball.

Haugist saw that the Thunder continued to give Durant the ball to attack, and his heart was depressed, it seems that the Thunder team has seen through my psychological offensive, Wei Shao should not have so many eyes, it is estimated that Donovan is scheming, midfielder Durant's frustration was noticed by him, and he made the corresponding tactical arrangements in time.

Durant took advantage of Haugist's heart to think about the moment suddenly borrowed Ibaka to cover the breakthrough, although Haugist was thinking about things, but he could use two things, chasing behind him and destroying Durant's dribble, the ball was stabbed to the bottom line by Haugist, Durant hurriedly flew up and dialed the ball to Wei Shao, who slipped the bottom line and cut the air, Wei Shao received the ball and hit a rebound, and also caused a foul on Randle's beater who made up for the defense.

Durant lay on the ground and shouted excitedly: "And one, Mother......"

But before he finished speaking, Haugist forcibly picked him up from behind, Durant thought it was a teammate, but when he looked back, it was Haugist, Durant asked in surprise: "Why are you?" ”

"I saw that your teammates didn't come up to pull you up when you fell to the ground, so they pulled you up!" Hougist is only half a beat faster than Durant's teammates, but he wants to slander the rest of the Thunder team for not wanting to come up to pull Durant, which is really sinister, but Wei Shaogang played a wonderful performance, Durant is happy for his teammates, and he didn't pay attention to Hoggist's "slander".

After Wei Shaojia hit a free throw, the Thunder led to 3 points, Hougist received the ball at the top of the arc and prepared to attack by himself, Turner went to the three-point line to cover Hougist, Hoggist broke through on the side by covering, but Adams's supplementary defense was very timely, Hougist was blocked on the three-point line, Durant also chased behind him and reached out to interfere with Hoggist's dribble, Hougist suddenly began to play with his back to the frame, rubbed back and jumped up, Durant couldn't dodge and paid a foul, but Hoggist's shot was also a little inaccurate and failed to play 2+1.

After hitting both free throws, the Lakers still trailed by 1 point, but Durant's offenses were obviously high, receiving the ball and dribbling to the front court directly against Hoggist to hit a three-pointer, once again stretching the difference to 4 points. He looked at Haugist with a smug look in his eyes, "As long as I want to attack, I can have the ball at any time and score at any time!" ”

Hoggist didn't answer Durant, but he thought in his heart, toast and don't eat and drink, you are forcing me to kill! Horgist dribbled to the frontcourt, and he kept changing hands and dribbling to prepare to use the rhythm to force Durant, but when he pressed to the elbow area, he suddenly passed to Randle, and Randle faced Robertson, who was close to the defense, and shot directly, and Robertson was also unable to avoid being rubbed into a foul. Randle made both free throws in a frenzy, but the margin was still not equal.

Wei Shao dribbled to the frontcourt, Haugist suddenly increased the defensive pressure on Durant, the Thunder kept transmitting the ball in the frontcourt, but it couldn't pass to Durant's hands, and finally Ibaka held the ball at the top of the arc, Durant wanted to shake off Haugist by shaking and running back, but it shook to Ibaka, Ibaka passed the ball to the position where Durant pretended to go, but Durant ran to the opposite position after probing a step, and Ibaka's pass flew straight out of the sideline.

The Lakers opened the sideline, Haugist took the initiative to make a cover for him after sending the ball to the reeds, the reeds missed a three-point pull-up jumper by covering, Durant received the rebound and dribbled back, Hoggist was blocked by Adams' cover at the top of the arc, but he hurriedly stabbed Durant's ball again from behind, Durant also did the same, flew to save the ball and dialed the ball to Ibaka in the bottom corner, Ibaka Young hit a three-pointer, Durant himself got up from the floor and said to Haugist: " The difference seems to be back to 5 points! ”

Horgist dribbled to the front court with a cold face, deliberately selling a flaw, Durant was proud, he didn't think much about it, reached out and pounced to pull the ball, but Horgist suddenly turned on the spot to protect the ball, Durant didn't get the ball, but was knocked back to the backcourt. Such an obvious foul action, the referee can't blow it if he wants to.

The Lakers reopened the sideline ball, Horgist continued to force Durant, Durant was a little persistent and unbelieving, fell in a pit and wanted to get up immediately, and in the process of Horgist's breakthrough, Horgist saw Durant reach out and hurriedly changed to a dribble behind his back to change direction, and Durant hit Horgist's arm again.

The Thunder has already counted enough after this foul, and the Lakers will be able to make free throws next time. The Lakers drove the ball out, and Hoggist created another shot for the Reeds, and this time the Reeds hit the basket with an accurate layup shot from the cover.

The Thunder kicked the ball, dribbled to the front court by Durant, Durant tried to return Hoggist to a foul in the middle, but Haugist was very rational and did not make it easy, Durant cut through Haugist and got up from the paint area to attack the basket, Blake, who was defending Ibaka in the low post, shrank to the basket to make up for the defense, Durant flicked his wrist to divide the ball to the bottom corner, Ibaka received the ball and shot three points again, but this time he was not so lucky.

Although Ibaka missed three points, Wei Shao slipped from the bottom corner of the weak side to the basket to take the rebound first, Wei Shao dribbled out of the three-point line to reorganize the offense, saw that there was no passing opportunity and dribbled alone, and stopped the zombie jump shot in the elbow area, Wei Shao's shooting action was too stiff, and the ball collapsed out of the basket, but Adams burst out from the Lakers' surrounded by several defenders, and collected the rebound strongly, which also caused Blake's foul.

Shashewski had no choice but to replace Blake with Nance Jr., and after the Thunder kicked off, Wei Shao hit the reeds in the low post, and tried to step against the reeds a few times with his back, and suddenly turned around to break through the frame, and scored a rebound on the reeds, and the reeds chased behind to try to block Wei Shao, but he paid for another foul.

However, fortunately, although Wei Shao scored a free throw, Adams entered the line early and pitted a teammate, so the referee blew the penalty invalid, and the score difference remained at 5 points. Reed blocked the attack with Hoggist in the frontcourt, and after breaking through through the cover, he turned back and distributed the ball to Hoggist at the top of the arc, Hoggist dribbled the ball and rushed away according to Durant, Durant finally learned his lesson this time, and was afraid of committing a foul again, so he made way sideways and gave way to Hoggist.

Hoggist suddenly went to the basket and put away the half-squat to prepare to charge up and jump, Adams hurriedly jumped up to block but did not wait for Hoggist, it turned out that Hoggist used the breakthrough rhythm to stop the ball in the half-squat under the basket, just to shake up the defenders, and when Adams fell, Hoggist leaned out and jumped behind Adams, and scored two points on the rebound.

It seems that in the third quarter, Donovan wants to prove Durant's core position, basically every offense has to hand over the ball to Durant again, Durant borrowed cover from the wing to pass Haugist, and gave the ball to Westbrook who outflanked the weak wing, but the pass was too high, the ball grazed Wei Shao's fingertips and flew to change direction, Reed flew to save the ball, fished the ball back from out of bounds and threw it directly to the front court, Haugist saw the reed save the ball and moved quickly, after receiving the ball, the afterglow swept to Durant chasing behind him, and he pouted his ass and made a quick layup, Durant couldn't interfere from close quarters, and could only watch as Horgist scored an easy layup. Hoggist had scored 41 points on 16-of-21 shooting, narrowing the gap to one point again, while the Thunder's new three were also very efficient, with Durant scoring 18 points on 6-of-8 shooting, Willis scoring 23 points on 9-of-15 shooting, and Serge Ibaka scoring 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting. Hougist can be called Lu Bu's three heroes, although the total statistics are far inferior to the sum of the opponent's three generals, but under his leadership, the score can be tightly bitten.

Back in the end, Thunder Durant continued to attack with the ball, and Ibaka blocked Haugist on the three-point line at the top of the arc, and Durant singled out Nance Jr. by covering the ball, and easily hit a long two-point shot against Nance Jr. in the elbow area.

Hougist dribbled at the top of the arc, Turner and Nance Jr. fought hand-to-hand with Adams Ibaka under the basket, Horgist suddenly hung the inside, Turner and Nance Jr. felt very inexplicable, this kind of ball they are now in the confrontation is impossible to easily receive, but the reed got out of nowhere, received the ball in the air and went directly to the rebound to score two points for the Lakers again.

Wei Shao dribbled to the front court and gave the wing Durant, but he sank to the low post to play the ball back, Durant passed the ball in from the top of Haugist's head, Wei Shao dribbled back, turned over and hooked the ball to Roberson under the empty basket, Robertson leaned back and leaned on Randle to jump up on the rebound, dodged the block and hit 2 points.

Hoggist shook his head helplessly, in fact, the Lakers' defense is also in place, but the Thunder's shooting rate in this quarter is too high, no matter how you play, although you have played the organization and individual offense to the extreme, but it is only to ensure that you bite the point difference, and it is very difficult to go further. Coming to the front court, Horgist controlled the ball and waited for his teammates to run, Reed covered Nance Jr. to cover the empty cut basket, Horgist continued to hang in, Reed also wanted to go up to the rebound to avoid the block, but was pulled down from the air by Ibaka.

With 4:26 left in the third quarter, the Reeds had two free throws, and after the first free throw was made, the Lakers replaced Randle and Turner, Jeremy Lin and Yi Jianlian, and the Thunder also replaced Adams for Collison. Reed continued to hit the second free throw, but the Lakers still clung to the score.

However, Jeremy Lin made a mistake as soon as he came on the court, and his main defender Robertson sneaked into the penalty area and completed a powerful air connection dunk after receiving a pass from Wei Shao. Haugist decided to continue to create kills on the inside, at the top of the arc, Haugist stuffed the ball to Yi Jianlian to respond, he sank to a low position to ask for the ball, and after receiving the ball, he turned to the bottom line, and threw the ball around Durant to Yi Jianlian who went straight to the basket from the top of the arc.

Yi Jianlian received the ball strongly, Durant turned around and wanted to cut the ball, but he hit Yi Jianlian's arm and fouled again, which was Durant's fourth foul. Yi Jianlian got two free throws, and Hoggist's goal of making a kill was also achieved. Haugist thought that Donovan would let Durant go to rest, but after Yi Jianlian hit the first free throw, the Thunder did not make any substitution adjustments, so Haugist made up his mind to beat Durant in the next round, and strive to let him eat the fifth foul and "rest" for a while in the fourth quarter.
