After determining the premise of the outer double bag, it is necessary to see how to deploy troops. www.biquge.info It is obvious that Ye Feng can't escape, not to mention that the two are directly opposite each other in the game, McMillan can hardly imagine that there are other people in the team who can compete with Durant and not fall behind, the key is another person's choice.

Matthews certainly can't, and while he's now also an important player in the team's perimeter defense, McMillan needs him to continue to limit Westbrook, who did a good job of that for most of the first quarter. As for the inside, Ibaka has to defend, but Perkins can be ignored, even if you let Perkins occupy all the shots, it is estimated that it will not be able to defeat the Trail Blazers, let alone help the Thunder win the game.

Then the only option is one big and four small, Aldridge is on top of the number five position, one person carries the offense and defense of the inside, the defensive end is mainly aimed at Ibaka, and Perkins can let go. The fourth position McMillan is ready to add another small forward who is mainly defensive, and his choice is Dante Cunningham, although the three-point shot is still not so accurate, but the defensive ability is improving day by day, so he and Ye Feng are sandwiching Durant, and then taking care of the defense of Ibaka, there is no problem for him.

In the first two minutes of the second quarter, the two sides continued to play on the bench with a tacit understanding, but when Brooks replaced Durant and other starters on the court, McMillan also changed the main lineup. One big and four small made Brooks a little surprised, after all, the Trail Blazers didn't seem to use the current lineup on the court all season, but Brooks is still there, he believes that this is just a choice for the Trail Blazers to speed up the pace, and the Thunder are not afraid to play against the offense.

However, Brooks soon discovered that the big four sent by the Blazers were not meant to be used on the offensive end, but to do something on the defensive end. When Durant got the ball, Ye Feng and Cunningham pressed up as soon as possible, in addition, Miller blocked Sefolosha who wanted to go over to help, Matthews watched Westbrook, Aldridge wrestled with Ibaka outside the three-second zone, and Perkins was left alone under the basket a little overwhelmed.

Now the most unhappy thing in the audience is undoubtedly Durant, when he faced Ye Feng before, he still felt a little evenly matched, and he also appreciated Ye Feng's ability, but he didn't expect the other party to call his little brother to bag together in a high position in a blink of an eye, is there such shamelessness? Where is the spirit of the strong? Durant was saddened. However, if Ye Feng knew his thoughts, he would definitely only smile, and then ask him: "Can the spirit of a strong man eat?" How much is a pound? ”

Ye Feng understands very well that as long as you don't break the rules or deliberately play black hands or anything on the court, it's okay, and any other behavior must serve the final outcome of the game. He knew that he couldn't prevent Durant and tell the truth, so McMillan formulated a strategy of double packing, which was nothing wrong, and Ye Feng would not think that this was underestimating himself. Sometimes people don't take themselves too seriously, and don't take others too seriously.

Originally, there was a tie between Durant and Ye Feng, and Durant had a slight advantage by virtue of his height and arm span, but the two were actually about the same. After being stealed by Durant for the first time, Ye Feng increased his vigilance, making it difficult for Durant to defend himself, but he focused most of his energy on organizing the offense, which made the score in the first quarter still in single digits. Now with the addition of Cunningham, Durant is instantly at a disadvantage.

In fact, with his height, it is still very easy to pass the ball when he is caught in the bag, but the Trail Blazers have limited almost all the scoring points in the Thunder lineup, leaving Perkins as Durant's passing object, and he is almost spewing out a mouthful of old blood. Who is Perkins? Except for last season's average of 10.1 points per game, he has never averaged a double-double in points per game in his career.

What's more, even if Durant is willing to pass the ball to Perkins, Perkins can smoothly put the ball in the basket, but as long as he is not a fool, he can see his passing route, anyway, there is only one person who receives the ball, and it is not too simple to predict or anything. And when the passing route is limited to only one way, it will be followed by various steals and interferences, in other words, the Trail Blazers forced Durant to score only through individual ball-handling singles.

The combination of Ye Feng and Cunningham had a great impact on Durant, one of them strengthened the intensity of physical confrontation, and the other waited for an opportunity to steal or block, no matter how strong Durant was, he could not continue to maintain the shooting rate in the first quarter. He had the heart to find a teammate, but only Seflosha could get away from Miller Sr.'s defense and show up in the open space and throw in one or two innocuous three-pointers, which didn't help the Thunder at all.

On the offensive end, after the Trail Blazers picked up the pace, there were four people in the Thunder's starting lineup who could keep up with them, but Perkins became a weakness. In fact, he is an interior meat shield type player, whose main role is to carry it under the basket, and speed is not his strength, so as soon as the Trail Blazers speed up the pace of the game, Perkins becomes a burden to the entire Thunder team, and is often a four-on-five situation on the defensive end.

When the basket is empty, several Trail Blazers have seized the opportunity to break through to score inside, in fact, even if Perkins guards the basket, their scoring frenzy will not be interrupted, but now it is simpler. In addition, Durant's shooting percentage also dropped, and the Trail Blazers gradually pulled the score apart in the second quarter, forcing Brooks to move Harden up to replace Sefolosha in advance.

However, Harden's hand in this game was not very good, Miller was already old, and the restriction on Harden on the defensive end could be said to be unscrupulous, but it worked very well, and also caused a personal offensive foul by Harden. At the end of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers led by 8 points at 60-52, and although the difference was not large, they had the advantage on the court, and the most important thing was of course to limit Durant's play.

Because the Trail Blazers deliberately let Durant hold the ball and single, he took a total of 10 shots in the second quarter, but only hit 3 shots, scoring a total of 7 points, which is far from his 50% shooting rate in the first quarter. And it's clear that the rest of the Thunder's players aren't helping, and the Trail Blazers limit Durant, and therefore their entire team.
