Chapter 92: Lakers vs Thunder (4)

As soon as Durant came on the court, he immediately made a three-pointer under Odom's defense to stabilize the situation, and then used the running position and the cover of his teammates to run to the open position to throw a two-pointer, and the rhythm of scoring five points in a row immediately made the Lakers nervous.

Here, Kobe Bryant was not to be outdone, and received a pass from Wang Meng and leaned back to score two points. Gasol also relied on Ibaka to turn and hook to score, and today Gasol finally played a little bit of the strength that an All-Star power forward should have, and with this hook, he has already won the 10th point of today's game.

Compared with the Thunder's side of Durant's outstanding, the Lakers' side is obviously more clever, at halftime, Durant has scored 23 points, but even so, the Thunder 48:56 is 8 points behind the Lakers. As another star in the Thunder duo, Westbrook's performance disappointed many, he scored a total of four points on 2-of-5 shooting at halftime, and although he had two assists, there were also two turnovers, which can be described as a very poor performance. And Wang Meng, who was opposite him, scored 7 points, although it was not high, but he had already got 6 assists and two steals, and it can be said that his performance overwhelmed Westbrook in an all-round way.

Perhaps found his embarrassment, Westbrook immediately came on the court at the beginning of the third quarter to show his very strong offensive ability, hitting all three one-step pull-up jump shots outside the free throw line in a row, scoring six points in a row, although Westbrook's mid-range shooting is very unreliable, but sometimes it is very accurate, and no one can do anything.

Because of the long play in the second quarter, Phil didn't want to replace him now, and even now that Westbrook started to have a convulsion, Phil still sat on the bench as if he didn't see it.

Westbrook's fourth mid-range shot finally missed, but the Lakers didn't grab the rebound, and Odom was looking up to grab the rebound, and Ibaka fell from the sky and dunked the missed basketball into the basket with one hand.

From the start of the game to now, the Thunder tied the score for the first time.

Of course, tying the score does not mean that you can overtake, and Kobe Bryant immediately eased the situation with a three-point pull.

It was Westbrook again, relying on speed and power to force a basket inside, and although the basketball didn't go in, it caused Odom's foul.

One of the two free throws, the Lakers replaced Odom and the dragon set center (eh, I forgot what the name was) for Gasol, and also replaced Bydam.

The Lakers' interior twin towers are on the court again, and the Thunder are also replaced by Durant.

Durant felt hot in this game, the score of this game was 40, Gasol was in a strong position to beat Ibaka and accidentally let a block cover, Durant immediately rushed into the Lakers with the ball, and used his long arms to easily avoid Kobe's steal layup score. Durant is tall and has long arms, and he has a very obvious advantage in playing inside, and if it weren't for his lack of physical confrontation ability, he could have become a very scary inside.

The score was tied again. Although the Lakers twin towers are very strong with Kobe, the vitality of the Thunder twin stars makes the Lakers unable to pull away for a while.

Westbrook drew another foul, and Phil finally replaced Wang Meng.

As soon as Wang Meng came on the court, the audience immediately cheered, and in the eyes of Lakers fans, Wang Meng has become another symbol of the Lakers in addition to Kobe. Now people outside are talking about the Los Angeles double-tyranny, which is talking about two players in Los Angeles who are very strong in dunking, one is the Clippers' white monster Griffin, and the other is the Lakers' Wang Meng, which shows how popular Wang Meng is now.

According to Wang Meng's agent Rob, now his phone is about to burst, and all of them are businessmen who want to sign a cooperative advertising contract with Wang Meng, but Rob thinks that if Wang Meng can win the NBA championship, it will be more valuable, so there is no big move.

It's a bit far-fetched, Wang Meng returned to the court, Westbrook immediately looked at Wang Meng with blazing eyes, after the attack just now, Westbrook's momentum has come out, he really wants to teach Wang Meng a lesson, this first-year rookie makes him very unhappy, although he has just gotten rid of the rookie name.

Steadily throwing the basketball into the frame, Westbrook scored his 13th point, he looked back at Wang Meng defiantly, and retreated to the halfcourt.

Wang Meng smiled, he was not Phil Jackson studying Buddhism and Zen, and he was indifferent to anything. Since Westbrook provoked him, he had to teach him a lesson, which was one of Wang Meng's principles of doing things, and he would never suffer a loss.

In the half, Wang Meng saw Westbrook standing there with all his strength, staring at him, and it seemed that he was obsessed with Wang Meng's two steals of him.

"Do you think I'm a sudden, or a vote?" Wang Meng's smile was very cheap.

Westbrook ignored Wang Meng, who would be stupid enough to answer such a question, two hundred and five.

Seeing that Westbrook didn't answer, Wang Meng didn't ask again, his expression was solemn, the rhythm of dribbling suddenly stagnated, and he jumped and shot violently.

Westbrook was prepared, and immediately jumped up and tried his best to extend his arms, wanting to give Wang Meng a big hot pot.

"I'm waiting for you right here." Seeing Westbrook jump, Wang Meng suddenly showed a sly smile, and his hands stopped immediately at the moment of shooting, and then aimed at Westbrook's arm and crashed into it.

"Not good!" Westbrook's heart jumped, and he subconsciously wanted to retract his arm, but it was too late, and the sharp whistle sounded immediately, this is the home court of the Lakers, although it is not so exaggerated as blowing the home whistle, but the whistle of a clear foul will definitely be blown.

Wang Meng easily cheated three free throws at the three-point line.

Wang Meng's free throws have always been powerful, and he didn't waste one of the three free throws, and all of them were thrown.

On the next ball, Westbrook wanted to get Wang Meng back, but Harden asked for the ball. "Russell, now is not the time to be vindictive, this is the playoffs, competitive is not for here, no matter how you play, winning is the key."

Westbrook was stunned and understood what Harden meant, although he was still angry, but he chose to be patient, after all, everyone wants to win, and how many people in the league don't yearn for the O'Brien Cup, which can only be issued once a year?

Although Harden is also a 22-year-old teenager, it can be seen from his beard that he is much more mature than Westbrook, and his ability may not be as good as Westbrook or Durant, but whether it is psychological quality or overall view, he is better than either Westbrook and Durant, which is one of the reasons why the Thunder value this beard.
