Chapter 266: Sweep to Win the Championship!

No one expected that the Thunder, who returned to their home court, would become so vulnerable.

That's Oklahoma City, that's the Energy Arena, that's the league's famous high-decibel arena, that's the most terrifying devil's home stadium of the season!

It is said that the Philadelphia 76ers arrived in Oklahoma City on the night they were harassed by the Thunder's die-hard fans and couldn't sleep; It is said that the Thunder gave the 76ers 3.5 points before the start of the game, and it is said that before the start of the game, the Thunder team had a special course in assault training and had done all the homework to break down the 76ers' defense!

In short, there are countless versions of the 76ers who will fold here before the game, and the game is not over yet, and countless people have dropped their jaws.

The final bell rang as the 76ers beat the Thunder by 25 points, 118-93

What home factors, what momentum bonuses, it didn't have time to emerge and was crushed by the 76ers.

People finally realized that there was a real and visible gap between the two teams that were both Young Guards. is not just Tang Wenlong's superstar aura, but the overall strength gap between the two teams - from the most basic tactical execution to the most fundamental lineup configuration.

Countless experts sighed, the Thunder trend has gone, and the probability of the 76ers winning the championship is as high as 99.9%.

In the first and second games, the ratings of the finals still had a gratifying breakthrough, and after the third game, the ratings of the finals fell in vain, if it were not for Tang Wenlong's identity as a Chinese, with the full support of hundreds of millions of Chinese fans, the ratings of the second half of the third game are likely to hit a new low in the finals in recent years.

Stern, the president of the league, was also speechless, and it was the first time he had seen the ratings of the division finals higher than those of the finals in his many years at the helm of the league. Fortunately. The league has earned enough this shrinking season. The reopened Chinese market. Even the Asian market continues to bring benefits to the league, and from the perspective of the NBA's globalization strategy, Tang Wenlong has simply contributed to it.

"Crush it, just crush it, I really didn't expect the gap between the two teams to be so big." Stern was looking forward to seeing new faces in the Finals, such as the Thunder and the 76ers that emerged this year are very much in line with his requirements, but he never expected that the Thunder, who lost two formations first, would be so overwhelmed that the third game was directly beaten to collapse.

If the Thunder were standing on the edge of a cliff before Game 3. Now that the third game is over, the thunder has already fallen off the cliff, but it has grabbed a vine hanging from the cliff, which is still the thinnest and thinnest one, and it may break at any time.

The 76ers recuperated and prepared for the battle, and after two days, their spirit and spirit were restored to their best state.

At this time, the fans of the Thunder have disappeared from the Internet, the team is 0-3 behind, and it is already a blessing not to be swept. Who would dare to talk about the championship? You know, there has never been a team in history who has come back from 3-0 down to turn the series back. It was 1-3 down and turned over, and there have only been 8 times in history.

The most recent was in '06, when the Suns beat the Lakers 4-3 after trailing the Lakers 3-1 to advance to the second round. In that round of the series, the most impressive scene was Kobe Bryant's 0.2-second defeat of the Suns in the fourth game, which has now appeared in Kobe's personal career highlights many times.

Looking back in '03, the Magic, who were in eighth place at that time, led the Pistons in the top spot in the East 3-1, almost creating a Black Eight miracle. Maddie also uttered the classic celebrity quote: "I'm already thinking about the next round opponent." Unexpectedly, the Detroit people were tough and didn't say anything, beating the Magic in a row and stealing seven to win the final victory. It was also the beginning of Maddy's first-round curse, and he suffered two first-round tie-break losses with the Rockets.

All in all, in the NBA, anything is possible, even if it is only by relying on the weak vine to survive, who can be sure that he will not climb the cliff along this thin and thin vine?

Tang Wenlong was happy in his heart, but he always reminded himself that he must not be careless.

On the evening of the 19th, the two teams began the fourth game.

The Thunder canceled the pre-game morale-boosting ceremony, and no one was in the mood to do these virtual things to strengthen their hearts. The 76ers are still the familiar old team, Tang Wenlong did the opening stretch, and after moving the joints and muscles of his body, he took the stage to compete.

The Energy Arena is still full, but the cheering is not as majestic as it was at the beginning of the last game.

In the opening jump ball, Gasol also beat his national teammate Ibaka to achieve the victory. In this way, after four games between the two people, the jump ball turned out to be five or five.

The 76ers still focus on several very classic tactics such as pillars, zippers, hammers, and crossing, relying on Gasol Jr.'s strong cover, either giving Tang Wenlong a misplaced offensive opportunity, or feeding the ball to David West's hands. The former is able to score consistently if he is misplaced, and the latter is as steady as a dog with a mid-range jumper.

The Thunder are not as complicated as the 76ers, one move to block and dismantle, one move to cover without the ball, and the ball is either not in the hands of Westbrook or definitely in the hands of Durant. Very pure and simple two-less tactics, if Harden plays, he will put Durantra at the No. 4 position, leaving an interior player, usually Ibaka, who focuses on conversion offense and three-point small-ball tactics.

Small-ball tactics in the finals? Many head coaches who watched the game in front of the TV laughed, and Brooks was forced to fight to the death. But what he should understand is that no team in the league's previous history has relied on small-ball tactics to win the championship, and even very few have even appeared on the finals stage, at most it is a condiment in the team's tactical system, not the main course.

And it turned out that the small ball didn't work on the 76ers' side, and as soon as Durant, who weighed so little, was pushed to the No. 4 position, Collins made tactical instructions directly on the sidelines and began to let the 76ers attack the interior. Whether it is the low post of Gasol Jr. and David West, or the strong bursts of Tang Wenlong, Iguodala, and Lowry in turn, Durant can't withstand it at all.

couldn't protect the basket, and unfortunately he was fouled twice in the first quarter, and he became shrinking in the subsequent games.

After barely a quarter of the time, Brooks got soaked in the back, and quickly put Durant down to protect it first, and replaced it with veteran Collison on top of it.

Tang Wenlong on the court smiled contemptuously, Durant, how can the rabble of the Thunder fight?

At the end of the first quarter, the 76ers led the Thunder by 8 points 28-20, and what is more troublesome is that in addition to Durant, Perkins also committed two fouls on the inside, the fourth game of life and death, the two main forces actually got into foul trouble funny, Durant can still control it in the following games, what about Perkins who needs to protect the frame? How else to fight hand-to-hand with macho men like Gasol Jr. and David West?

The Thunder stubbornly resisted to the end, and in the middle of the third quarter, they once played a wave of 12-2 small high-tide to chase the score to only 5 points. But then Tang Wenlong assisted Iguodala to hit a key three-pointer, and the wave of counteroffensive momentum that the Thunder had finally built up collapsed in an instant, and its combat effectiveness dropped by three layers.

In the end, the 76ers beat the Thunder by just 10 points, 110-100.

It was unexpectedly swept the Thunder in the finals and won the league's championship! (To be continued.) )
