615. Overtaken

Billy Donovan doesn't have as many players as D'Antoni to use, and if he continues to be in such a stalemate, he won't have to play against the Thunder.

If the Thunder want to win, they must find opportunities to play an advantage in the main section, otherwise there is no way to play on the bench!

The Thunder's offensive routines have been almost used, and if you want to win at this time, you can only start from defense.

The Thunder players also understood this, and after Westbrook scored a three-pointer, he began to go around Liu Ren, the Lakers' first possession point in the previous rounds, and did not let Liu Ren receive the ball.

Antetokounmpo fed the ball to Clarkson.

Clarkson took the ball and ran quickly, Antetokounmpo blocked Liu Ren, Clarkson immediately passed to Liu Ren who ran out, Liu Ren threw the ball directly to Monroe on the inside without stopping, and Monroe hit another mid-range shot.

Both sides are constantly scoring, and the game is starting to burn again, but the Thunder is shooting three points, the Lakers are two points, and the Thunder are both less, but they are slowly narrowing the score, and by the end of the first half, the Lakers have a small lead of the Thunder by 4 points at 61-57.

D'Antoni has no pressure at all, this Kobe, Green, and Whiteside are not on, and they are still leading by 4 points, and the Thunder side has almost played the first half, the advantage is too obvious, and at halftime he talked about attacking well in the second half, and let the players communicate on their own.

Soon the second half of the game began, and the Lakers attacked first.

The Lakers sent a combination of LaVine, Kobe, Liu Ren, Antetokounmpo, and Green to take them out in the third quarter of the Thunder's rotation.

But, unexpectedly, Coach Donovan continued to send Westbrook and Durant on the court, and the Thunder sent Westbrook, Andre Robertson, Durant, Ibaka, Adams, and they switched to the strongest lineup.

This is really unexpected, both have been playing almost the first half, and continue to start in the third quarter?

LaVine dribbled in, and Green and Antetokounmpo immediately stood on both wings, covering Liu Ren and Kobe, who ran up from the baseline.

The Lakers disrupted the opponent's defense through continuous fast running, Liu Ren ran to the edge of the three-second zone to catch the ball, attracting two Thunder players to defend, Liu Ren saw this and passed the ball to Antetokounmpo behind Adams, and Antetokounmpo scored with both hands.

Westbrook again possessed the ball and handed it to Durant.

Ibaka ran over to make a cover for Durant, who suddenly hit a three-point shot after a pick-and-roll.

Durant started to go berserk, the Lakers came over and couldn't shoot, Durant grabbed the rebound himself and went down quickly, and directly chased down the three-point shot.

Then the Lakers' offense missed again, and Durant hit another three-pointer.

Three three-pointers in a row! Durant's frenzy came really suddenly.

This is Durant, the four-time scoring champion who sees scoring as nothing!

65-61, Durant suddenly broke out, and the Thunder caught up with the score and even surpassed the Lakers by 4 points!

The Lakers were a little anxious, LaVine took the ball and quickly broke through along the sideline, turned back and passed the ball to Green, who was standing in the high post.

Green has a mid-range, the Thunder pounced to defend, Green gave the ball to Liu Ren who ran back and cut into the Thunder basket, not to mention, no one in the Thunder team dared to stop Liu Ren, Liu Ren has left a psychological shadow on Ibaka and Adams in the past two years, Liu Ren directly hit the basket and easily dunked.

The Thunder attacked, and LaVine and Green quickly went up to Westbrook's frantic bag.

Westbrook faced the defense of two people, and still didn't pass the ball, just now Durant scored three in a row, the fans were cheering and MVP, Westbrook was not satisfied all of a sudden, he thought he was no worse than Durant, and he had to do what Durant could do!

Westbrook used his body to lean on LaVine's lateral dribble, and then suddenly accelerated, causing the two Lakers players to take a step back.

Taking this opportunity, Westbrook made a mid-range pullup jump shot......

Again! The Westbrook middle distance was really amazing today.

The Lakers attacked, and Liu Ren held the ball.

Liu Ren singles! Everybody pulls away.

Durant faced Liu Ren alone, feeling panicked, he defended Liu Ren, it was really enough.

But only Durant came to defend Liu Ren, Andre Roberson was going to run with Kobe, Durant didn't have so much physical strength to run with Kobe, so Durant could only defend Liu Ren, if Westbrook was allowed to defend, Durant chose to die.

Liu Ren slammed forward, striding forward.

Durant subconsciously retreated, and Adams on the inside was subconsciously ready to rush up to block or foul, and when the two of them made moves at the same time, Liu Ren suddenly stopped and threw a mid-distance directly.

Liu Ren's mid-distance is one of his strengths, but now it seems to be cold! Feel that this thing is contagious, and the Lakers missed shots several times in a row! Didn't go in this time!

missed the shot, Liu Ren shook his head depressedly, it seems that his hand feeling is very average today, and he can't rely on long-range shots to solve the problem, and then he can only think of a way from the breakthrough and low-post singles.

Liu Ren ran back depressedly, and at this time the Thunder grabbed the rebound and advanced quickly again.

Westbrook holds the ball, Adams makes a cover outside the three-point line, and Westbrook uses the same style of play as Durant, borrowing and blocking a sudden three-point shot!

Entered! Westbrook also scored three points!

Today's Thunder Double Less feels really good!

Lakers offense.

Liu Ren accelerated to break through, Durant was knocked away by Liu Ren at once, and Liu Ren once again hit the inside line and ignored everything and dunked the ball into the basket.

And not only the ball went in! A foul on Adams was also made.

The ball is in, and the penalty will be added!

Today's free throws were not bad, and Liu Ren's 2+1 free throws were not wasted.

Westbrook pushed in, and Liu Ren pounced on Westbrook again with LaVine.

Because Liu Ren has fast hands, fast movements, and good bounces, it is basically impossible for Westbrook to upload from Liu Ren's head to his teammates on the inside.

Westbrook made a strong breakthrough to the left, and he didn't care if he could break in at all, he was completely running to attract the bag, and the Lakers had to wrap it up, and the Lakers' defense was all attracted to Westbrook's side, and then he was responsible for being optimistic about Durant, so Andre Roberson was empty, and Westbrook made a long pass to Andre Roberson outside the 45-degree angle three-point line on the right.

Andre Roberson took the ball just in the open space, and he took advantage of this completely empty opportunity.

"Huh!"

The Thunder scored another three-pointer.

Westbrook's ability to control the ball, his mental quality, his passing ability, his rebounding ability, all kinds of abilities...... It's simply breathtaking.

Against Westbrook, any team that wants to press him will have a good chance of being counter-attacked.

But it doesn't wrap up...... Wait for Westbrook to score.
