"Beat LA, beat LA, beat LA......" The players on both sides roared in unison as they entered the court, trying to put pressure on the Clippers with their own abilities.

Although he was away from home, although the opponent's cheers and roars were an attack on his own side, Chen Lei was really a little enthusiastic when he looked at such a overwhelming picture.

The Thunder have a must-win game, and they have no way back.

For the fans, this may also be the last time they will watch their team play this season, so naturally they can't sit quietly on the bench, so this kind of cheering in unison is expected to continue until the last second, as long as there is a body.

"It's the most enthusiastic away atmosphere I've ever had!" Chen Lei looked at the Thunder fans around him and sighed.

Crowds of people, waves of sound, if this is the shout of the home stadium, how wonderful it would be......

"Phew!" Chen Lei secretly took a sip, this is someone's last battle, so he doesn't want the team to have this kind of scene.

"Well, that's the unique beauty of the playoffs." Griffin licked his lips excitedly, winning this game will usher in the first Western Conference Finals of his career.

There are not a few people who have the same thoughts as Griffin, and some people even began to look forward to the finals and championships, in short, the 3:1 score made everyone full of confidence.

The Clippers starting lineup, point guard Paul, scoring guard Redick, small forward Chen Lei, power forward Griffin, center Jordan Jr.

The Thunder's starting lineup, point guard Westbrook, scoring guard Reggie. Jackson, small forward Durant. Power forward Serge Ibaka, center Perkins.

Chen Lei started again. Let the Clippers once again put on the tactics of focusing on the interior, and Brooks, who learned the Clippers' starting lineup, also made a special explanation. Avoid opening games dominated by the Clippers from the inside.

"Mission Activation: Ticket to the Western Final, Mission Content: Win the game, Mission Reward: 1/5 of the Key to Unlock, Key to Unlock, Key to Unlock for Locking Skills, Gather Five Keys to Unlock Lock Attributes."

"I cǎo......" Chen Lei stood up and was about to enter the court, and his right foot was stunned by him, the key to unlock? Gather five? How is this attribute the same as Dragon Ball?

"So powerful?" Chen Lei's body trembled slightly, his poor little speed attribute that had been locked had been locked for an unknown number of days.

But...... Gather five? It doesn't seem like an easy thing to do.

Who would have known when and what month the next such mission would be? And put it under the name of advancing to the Western Conference Finals. Obviously, the conditions for obtaining this unlock key activation are very harsh.

"Forget it, at least it's a hope, which shows that sooner or later my speed will still improve, whether it's next season or next season, I can afford to wait." Chen Lei pondered in his heart that he was still young and didn't need to worry about anything.

The jump ball at the beginning of the game, this time Ibaka slapped the ball to his own camp under the gaze of his hometown father, Wei Shao took the basketball and took the ball across the half court and threw a through pass to Jackson. The latter missed the shot, Ibaka grabbed the rebound and threw the ball into Wei Shao's hands again.

This time, Wei Shao was not in a hurry, but dangled outside the three-point line, bent over and slapped the ball on the ground quickly with both hands, and rushed over with a shake on the left side of Paul and an acceleration on the right.

Paul's reaction was fast, and the defense was also injected with 100% energy, and did not let Wei Shao rush past and follow closely in front of him.

Seeing this, Jackson decisively stepped forward and chose to block and dismantle. Wei Shao, who intercepted Paul and dribbled wildly at the same time, also rushed over.

The sword came out, Wei Shao was like a sharp long sword and went straight to the Clippers basket after being defenseless, and threw the ball to the basket. The orange orb tumbled and fell headlong into the basket.

At 2:0, the Thunder opened the first game.

Chen Lei picked up the ball and threw it to Paul. After the Clippers pushed through the halfcourt, Paul passed the ball back to Chen Lei again, the ball was not sticky, and he flicked the ball hard with both hands and threw the ball to Griffin, who was stuck in the middle.

After receiving the ball, he leaned back on Ibaka. Griffin's back was not strong, but Ibaka, who had hit him, took a half-step back.

Hit a step back again, Griffin stepped back, and threw the ball with a hook.

"Huh!" Basketball hits as well.

The Thunder countered with Durant's shot and missed the basket, and the rebound was taken by Jordan Jr. and thrown to Paul, who assisted Redick to hit a three-pointer.

In the opening game, the Thunder continued to dominate the double-bottom, while the Clippers were an all-out offensive approach rather than the interior as the Thunder thought.

The offensive pattern of pulling out open shots is the most common, but it is clearly more appropriate for the Clippers right now. Each point has its own killer feature, and even Jordan Jr. on the inside has frequent opportunities to bombard the basket on the inside.

They didn't take the lead again after the Thunder opened 2-0 over the Clippers, and the Clippers kept the advantage, ending the first quarter with the Thunder 25:33 Clippers, trailing the Clippers by eight points.

The atmosphere of the scene gradually quieted down, and the opponent led by so many points in the first quarter, making the Thunder more and more passive.

The overall strength of the Thunder team is stronger than that of the Warriors, but there is a limit to the strength and is not much stronger, just like the Warriors are inclined to the Curry-based projection combination, the biggest reliance of this team is the double few.

This kind of scoring style is naturally amazing, but it also shows that if this kind of offense is limited and there is no strong point in other positions, it will be painful, and this was the case in the first quarter of the Thunder, who felt the pain of a bad feeling in the second half.

"Whew......" Coach Brooks exhaled, looked at the technical statistics of the first quarter, and said, "We're going to change it in the second quarter, and the tactics we rehearsed this morning should also be put to use." ”

Everyone looked at Ibaka, who raised his head and clenched his fists.

Brooks has already targeted, and since you all think we only have double less, then we will surprise you from somewhere else.

Although Ibaka is a defensive stalwort, his offensive ability has to be underestimated.

He's an underrated attacker, and while he doesn't have the ability to attack in the low post, he's still good enough to keep his chest up when he gets an opportunity.

(Thousands of fans shouted in unison: Do you stand up?) ）

In the second quarter, Durant rested and Wei Shao led the team, and at the beginning, Wei Shao rushed to the basket and circled the Clippers' interior line, disrupting the Clippers' interior lineup, and then threw the ball straight at Ibaka. In the face of Granger's defense, Ibaka received the ball and rushed forward to the basket to throw the ball.

"Huh!" The basketball is firmly in the pocket.

Without the slightest drag, Ibaka's basketball is prone to surprises in the offense of his own time. Simply catch the ball and shoot.

The Clippers are led by Paul, who is destined to get no more rest in this game. Because the Thunder won't give the Clippers a breather and will attack like crazy all the time, even the lead Rivers has to let Paul press the lineup.

After halftime, Paul threw the ball into Granger's hands, and Granger, who got a hint of space, did not shoot directly, but went around to the basket and chose a safer layup.

Unfortunately, his layup didn't work, and the basketball went around the basket twice and eventually fell outside the basket.

"Bastard!" Granger looked depressedly at the rebound that Ibaka had taken, slightly annoyed.

If you put it aside, you can throw this kind of ball into the basket by throwing it yourself.

The Thunder quickly counterattacked, and Wei Shao continued to frantically impact the basket and pass the ball to Ibaka.

"Huh!" Still didn't drag the mud and water, and after receiving the ball, he looked for an opportunity to shoot directly, and the basketball went into the pocket again.

"Ibaka again?" Rivers looked at the big black man in the field with some confusion. He wouldn't believe Ibaka would be the Thunder's offensive arrow.

But Westbrook's two offenses gave the ball to Ibaka, which had to make Rivers wonder, did the Thunder change their strategy in this final game?

"Interesting." Rivers already believed seventy or eighty percent, but he didn't expect Brooks to be quite bold.

Sacrificing Westbrook's physique and the right to fire allowed Ibaka to start from the inside, but although this idea is good, the offense and defense are so consuming this big man, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Ibaka used his own hands to bring eight points to the Thunder, hitting 3 of 5 shots and 2 free throws, helping the Thunder rewrite the score to 35:39 at 4:32 in the second quarter, and the difference between the two sides was only 4 points.

Ibaka did the job perfectly on the offensive end. But the effort on the offensive end was destined to take a lot of physical drain, and Ibaka, who didn't rest for a few minutes, was already exhausted midway through the second quarter.

"Here's your chance!" The reason why Rivers didn't restrict Ibaka before was to wait for this moment, and when Ibaka was off the court, he threw Chen Lei and Griffin into the middle of the court with a big wave.

Double big front?

No, the exact name should be two swords. Both of them can use their own attacks to disrupt the opponent's interior line, and two sharp swords that are unsheathed and overflowing with cold light.

Rivers smiled slightly, "Without Ibaka's Thunder inside, it's just a yellowed old piece of paper." One poke, and it's broken! ”

The madness that belonged to the Clippers in the middle of the second quarter finally played out. Both Chen Lei and Griffin incarnated as peerless killing gods, killing the Thunder team's defense again and again.

Even if Brooks put Ibaka back three minutes later, he couldn't stop the Clippers. It should be said that it is impossible to stop Chen Lei and Griffin's offensive footsteps.

Thunder 49:62 Clippers, the Clippers relied on the madness of the second half of the second quarter to firmly grasp the advantage in their own hands.

The 13-point difference in the half allowed the Clippers to rest comfortably, and of course threw a heavy burden to the Thunder and the 20,000 fans who watched the game.

The Thunder fans have all been silent, they can't believe that the pre-game counterattack expectations have become so much, and they can't believe that today's Clippers are so scary, those two insiders, too crazy.

Griffin had 15 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists in the first half, and Chen Lei had 16 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Relentless inside line crushing.

"Is this going to be the end of this game?" A Thunder fan mourned.

"No, the point difference is not big, I believe in them, I believe in Durant!" Another fan shook his head.

'That's right, in the second half we were able to pull back our advantage. Another fan nodded heavily.

"! Be your uncle's bullshit dream! A yellow-skinned fan beside a few people scolded in his heart.
