On April 10, Los Angeles welcomed a ferocious group of guests, the Thunder of Oklahoma City.

The Thunder are currently in second place in the West, above the Clippers, with a 2.5-game win gap between the two sides, and are in the same class.

Both teams are predominantly young, and both are known for their impact, but when it comes to impact on the offensive end, the Clippers are still slightly inferior.

The Thunder have the best outside offensive combination in the league, and that is the famous Thunder duo.

The two are like two sharp knives, see who stabs whom, all the outside defenders don't want to touch, even the Spurs, the Heat.

Of course, this is not an invulnerable team, their offensive advantage is also their disadvantage, if the hands are not felt in the attack, then their offensive threat will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, one of the major signs of the Thunder's game is that the double is less fierce, the odds of victory are imminent, and the double less is declining, and there is basically no play.

"I've been resting for so long, and I've finally come across a tough bone." Chen Lei in the locker room said with emotion after dressing up, this thunder is the strongest team he has encountered since joining the Clippers.

In the previous game, that is, the Rocket was a good opponent, but the Rocket's ranking was behind the Clippers, and this Thunder was the only opponent ranked above the Clippers, and Chen Lei inevitably had some expectations.

"Nonsense, still let you pick up small vegetables to nibble? You Chinese don't always say that there will be bread, there will be bread, and there will be bones. Davis poked Chen Lei in the armpit, "I said brother, last week's Western Rookie of the Week, your kid took the top spot again, and the number is better than that guy from the Eastern 76ers, what do you think?" ”

"Are you going to give me a microphone and then I'll give me another acceptance speech?" Chen Lei raised his eyebrows at Davis, "But that feeling should be good." ”

"You can do that, but you can't wear this," Davis said with a forced smile, but Fat Meat still shivered from laughing, "You should be dressed in Donald Duck's clothes, and the opening line is 'quack'." ”

"Damn, you dead fatty, who do you say is a duck?" Chen Lei put his arm around Davis.

"Fake, you stinky fat man, you are so rampant!" Davis unceremoniously began to fight back.

"......" Paul, Griffin, and others.

After some fun, the staff notified the players to start entering, and there were not a few fans present at this game, so the cheers were much warmer than before.

The Thunder, as one of the giants in the West, will be the main opponent of the Clippers in the playoffs, and this game will also be a warm-up before the playoffs, because it is common sense that the two teams can pass the first round and meet in the second round is very likely.

The Clippers fielded their normal starting lineup today, the strongest starting lineup they have seen in a long time.

Redick's return makes the starting No. 2 position finally no longer be put together casually, which is the real No. 2 attacker for the Clippers and the starting lineup that the Clippers have been running in for a long time.

Point guard Paul, scoring guard Redick, small forward Barnes, power forward Griffin, center Jordan Jr.

The Thunder's starting lineup, point guard Westbrook, scoring guard Seflosha, small forward Durant, power forward Ibaka, and center Perkins.

At the start of the game, all 10 players in the field were desperate to take out their opponents, and both sides regarded their opponents as fierce opponents in the playoffs and did not hold back.

The Thunder still took the lead in firing, and the Clippers' traditional interior line started to play, starting with Griffin.

And everyone sitting on the sidelines also started their, and of course they will also be gearing up to go up and fight their opponents later.

"Durant is so tall!" Looking at Durant on the court, Chen Lei sighed, is this product's height a small forward? It's not much different from myself.

"Nonsense, this is the United States, and to a star of their level, height doesn't mean anything" Collison pointed to Durant, "but this guy is indeed taller than a small forward, a few centimeters taller than Anthony and James." ”

Durant turned on the offensive mode in the game, and I have to say that the guy who ranked first in the regular season scoring list was not sorry for this honor, scoring 8 points in the first half of the game, ensuring that the Thunder took the lead.

At 5 minutes and 49 seconds in the first quarter, Westbrook, who suffered a breakthrough in Jordan Jr.'s defense, received the second foul of the game, and the two fouls in the first quarter were dangerous in themselves, let alone only half a quarter of the game.

"Davis, play!" Rivers replaces Jordan Jr. with Davis.

In Chen Lei's envy, Davis walked onto the court, and the sad thing happened more than ten seconds later, and Davis, who had no ball cover, received special care from the referee on the court to cover the foul!

"Now the referee's blowing penalty scale is really getting smaller and smaller" Chen Lei pointed to several referees in the field, "Davis's defense was not blown before, I don't know how this is done, it is getting stricter and stricter, and there is less fun of confrontation." ”

"Who's to say it's not, it's really hard to kick your hands when you foul at every turn." Little Jordan also sighed, didn't he just end the game because of a foul?

Collison rolled his eyes, "This kind of thing can be said by you two people who are as strong as bulldozers, how do I feel that this is a benefit?" ”

"Don't say that, many people who are not very good have used the new NBA rules to create free throw opportunities, haven't you noticed that there are a lot of 3+1s this year?" Little Jordan pouted, if Lao Tzu had the ability to score three points, he would definitely go to the three-point line to create a zào3+1 opportunity.

After Little Jordan finished speaking, several people turned their heads to look at Crawford at the same time, and when they saw everyone looking at him, Crawford glanced at him, and the three of them looked away.

"Holy, this guy broke Paul?" Chen Lei interrupted the two and pointed to the court, Westbrook rushed to the front first, like a lightning bolt, he arrived at the backcourt of the Clippers in a blink of an eye, got up and jumped up with one hand to split the dunk, and smashed the ball into the basket.

At 22:15, the Thunder beat the home team Clippers at the Staples Center and disrupted the formation.

The Clippers took a timeout, Rivers rubbed his head and sighed slightly, "Difficult opponent." ”

Encountering tough opponents is a test of the team's strength, especially in the early stages of the playoffs, and it would be best if you can find some of the team's hidden problems in this game.

Of course, the confrontation with a strong team is a thing that cannot be careless all the time, whether it is the player or himself, he must be in good spirits, and the slightest carelessness will be caught by the opponent.

"I have to say that the opponent's transition offense is better than ours, Westbrook and Durant are really fast." Rivers frowned, these two people are not easy to defend, at least in the current Clippers lineup, the speed of defense is not good, and the defense of speed is not good" Thunder double few, I have to say that this is the best outside attack combination! ”

"Straight to the point, listen to my lineup first!" Rivers flipped through the information compiled by the assistant, "The interior lineup remains the same, Griffin and Davis are still sitting on the inside, Barnes and Redick are coming down to rest, Collison is at the second position, Chen is at the third position, and the point guard is still Paul." If you have a chance to shoot with outside firepower, use your offensive cohesion to disrupt the opponent's position for me, Chen, especially you, don't keep your hand, shoot directly when it's time to shoot. The interior can properly impact the number five position, and the defense of the center position is a hole in their interior line, which you have to keep in mind. ”

The Thunder, who have two less, have a strong impact, and Rivers' response is to strengthen the team's offensive connectivity, with Paul, Collisson, Chen Lei and Griffin all having the ability to pass.

You can rush, we can pass, without fear.

When the player returned to the court, Paul held the ball on the outside and played a few tactical sign words at his teammates, Griffin pulled out the outside to block and dismantle, and Paul rushed to the side to divide Chen Lei in two steps.

Chen Lei held the ball on the right side of the middle distance and faced Durant with his back, Paul slipped from the bottom line to the basket after passing, Chen Lei pretended to push his back and hit his wrist and threw the ball to Paul who slipped to the bottom line, who rushed to the basket and hit a backhand layup.

"Yes, that's it." A smile hung on the corner of Rivers' mouth, looked at the few players in the field, and sat down on the bench with confidence.

Thunder's Westbrook single-handedly hung Ibaka, who missed the rebound and was taken by Davis and thrown to the Paul Clippers to counterattack, Paul hit the basket high and hit again!

"Give me the ball!" Durant beckoned for the ball, and Westbrook threw the ball to Durant after halftime.

Standing in the third position to defend is Griffin, and the two of the best among the young people have also been compared many times, and this time the two of them also played their own spirits.

Durant often relies on his high legs to break through opponents, but this time it will obviously not be so easy, facing Griffin's defense Durant failed to rush past him in several attempts, and simply stepped back to the three-point line and pulled out his shot.

The action is very beautiful, the shot is also very sharp, and the downward trajectory of basketball is also beautiful, but it is a pity that this ball is a little stronger, and the rebound is once again accepted by the big baby.

This time the Thunder were quick to defend back, and the Clippers lost the opportunity to quickly counterattack, and Paul began to suppress the tempo.

More than ten seconds later, Paul started to act, still breaking through to the basket, facing the shrinking Thunder defense Paul to split the ball Collison.

"Smack! Smack! Collison jumped into the air three times in a row to make a shot, Seflosha jumped high and reached out to block all of Collison's vision, this ball would never go in unless God helped.

The afterglow swept over Collison and found a fat white figure wandering on the outside, there are two of them on the Clippers of this size, but there is only one on the outside!

Collison threw the ball towards the white figure with a flip of his wrist, and Chen Lei, who was about to retreat to the backcourt, saw that Collison chose to pass the ball and was stunned for half a second, then grabbed the basketball, put the ball in his arms, and made a shooting action outside the three-point line.

"Humph!" Durant snorted coldly and greeted Chen Lei, they had seen the Clippers' recent game video before the game, and he also knew that this fat man had a magical three-point ability, and he couldn't let him shoot lightly.

Durant's speed was very fast, Chen Lei didn't plan to shoot by himself, but just raised it symbolically, seeing Durant rushing over and retreating, he opened the distance and threw the ball to Paul at the top of the arc on the right side of the penalty with both hands.

"Huh!" Paul struck again, like a civet, and moved to the three-second zone to send the ball into the basket.

Rivers' lineup change was very practical, and the Clippers' gradually widened margin was reduced to one point under Paul's three consecutive assaults, 22-21, only one point difference.
