Intermission.

Thunder locker room.

The break between the two halves is the perfect time for the team to make adjustments.

Especially in the playoffs, adjustment is very important.

Donovan analysed some of the team's problems in the first half.

'Fouls, coming to away games, we have to cut down on fouls. The referee will definitely be much tighter on our whistle, pay attention to your movements, don't give the referee a chance to find fault. ”

Ibaka was fouled three times in the first half.

As a result, he was unable to stay on the court in the second half of the second quarter.

That's a big deficit for the Thunder's defense.

"And our offense, we have to play more resolutely and play more inside. If you don't feel good, you can try to find a whistle. We were at home, and the combination of penetration and shooting was good. But tonight we were a little too reliant on feel. ”

Donovan's words are a bit like they're saying it to Durant.

In the first half, Durant had a poor shooting touch.

And he still takes a lot of shots even when his shooting is poor.

Isn't this going to be Kobe?

On the other side, the real Kobe Bryant played very efficiently tonight.

Rarely force your hand.

Donovan's criticism was heard.

Durant just nodded.

He muttered, "I see, I'm going to be more accurate in the second half." ”

Donovan wanted to say something more.

But the words still didn't come to his lips.

This is the NBA team.

Not a college NCAA.

In the NCAA, coaches are absolute authorities.

He told the players to play how they wanted.

The NBA is different, and the coach is the one who bears the blame.

Except for a few highly authoritative coaches.

Most coaches are babysitters for superstars.

Tactics are designed around superstars.

Let the role players play and support the superstars.

Durant is undoubtedly at the heart of the Thunder.

He has an incomparably strong strength.

But psychologically and temperamentally.

Durant, on the other hand, lacks the qualities to be the boss of the team.

In this regard, Russell Westbrook is more domineering.

But no matter what.

Donovan can't offend either of them.

A little bit of a word.

The tactics of the second half were laid out again.

The time of half-time is over.

And in the Lakers locker room.

The situation is actually much the same.

The two cores of the team.

Kobe Bryant, Wang Shuang, and Scott can't be offended.

But the difference is that Kobe Bryant and Wang Shuang are both leaders.

Have responsibility and dare to take responsibility in the competition.

At the same time, have the courage to sacrifice.

Kobe Bryant used to be a little more selfish.

Especially in 2004, in order to grab FMVP.

caused the Lakers to lose the championship.

This eventually led to the disintegration of F4.

Malone has no crown in his life.

O'Neill won another championship in the east.

In the next 10 years, Bryant went through a lot.

Finally really grow and stand up.

Now, Kobe Bryant is no longer selfish.

In the locker room, he took the initiative to give up the right to speak to Wang Shuang.

"We're going to get back to the feeling we had when we played the Warriors in the first round, we didn't have a lot of leads, but the opponent couldn't turn it over! Because we have a solid defence, an efficient attack, and the best pace of the game. It's our game, remember, it's our game! At Stamps, we're going to take victory into our own hands! ”

Compared to Kobe.

Wang Shuang is more outgoing.

He uses words to motivate his teammates.

For a veteran-dominated team.

It's not easy to motivate people.

But Wang Shuang can do it.

He doesn't give frequent and endless speeches.

It's about getting a stitch just right when you need it.

Chicken soup cannot be eaten as a meal.

But it's still quite warm to have a bowl once in a while.

The second half of the game began.

58:51, 7 points of difference.

The Thunder launched their first offense of the second half.

Serge Ibaka receives a pass from Willis at 45 degrees on the right side.

Three-point shot!

The score was instantly narrowed down to just 4 points.

Ibaka fouled too much in the second quarter and took a break off the court.

It's not a good thing.

He came up in good fitness after the second half.

The Lakers, for their part, chose to feed Randolph in the low post.

Randolph forced Ibaka with his back.

didn't shoot, and passed the ball to Kobe Bryant, who cut in the middle.

Bryant dries the basket with the ball.

Face the Thunder Pack.

A diagonal ball goes to Hibbert on the left.

Hibbert lightly hooked his hand and hit a two-point shot.

Hibbert at the start of the second half.

The ability to score has always been very strong.

With this ability, he can score seven or eight points per game.

Bryant also knew about Hibbert's ability.

So pass him the ball and let him score.

After all, if you fight for a while, the big iron bull will not be able to go down and rest.

A difference of six points.

But then Wang Shuang made a mistake on the defensive end.

Durant receives the ball in the high post.

Turn around and face the basket and shoot directly into the three-point!

Wang Shuang went to reach out and seal it.

As a result, it rubbed into Durant's body.

knocked Durant down.

The referee blew the whistle immediately.

Missed a three-point attempt, but fouled a free throw.

Wang Shuang immediately explained to the referee.

"I'm out of the way, I'm out of the way!"

The referee shook his head and said, "It's not a question of whether to dodge or not...... Fouled the king. ”

Wang Shuang understood now.

It's not a question of whether you can't dodge it.

It's the referee who wants to blow you for a foul.

It seems that the referee is thinking about controlling the field again.

In the first half, the Lakers made big defensive moves.

The scale of the referee is looser, and it is biased in favor of the Lakers.

But in the second half, the referee was about to turn around.

Through this foul, Wang Shuang was keenly aware of the change in the referee.

When he made free throws, he called everyone over and said, "Don't give too much intensity, the referee will find our fault." Speed up a bit, pick up the tempo, and don't let them catch up with the score. ”

Wang Shuang has a lot of say on the defensive end.

He's not the one who defends the best.

But he's smart and defensively minded.

And once you get to the basket, the ability to protect the basket is inexplicably strong.

Durant hit all three free throws.

At 57:60, the difference was only 3 points.

The game became dangerous for the Lakers.

Then the Lakers made a mistake on offense.

The high double block dismantle, down the line.

Bryant's pass was jammed by Robertson.

The arms of the Thunder defenders are too long.

As a result, Hibbert, who went down, failed to catch the ball.

The ball is out of the line, the Thunder ball.

"The Lakers made a mistake! This is a terrible pass, a terrible block. To be honest, Hibbert was too slow, slow on his feet and slow on his hands. Once the game is deep and the rhythm of confrontation goes up, he will give it for nothing. He was in the East two years ago against the Heat, and now he doesn't know how it came to be. ”

Kenny Smith was rather speechless about Hibbert's performance.

The first two are not to be said in Russia.

High round round natural circle.

Returning to Los Angeles today can only be said to have played a little well.

But compared to the performance when the Pacers played the Heat.

It's really far from it.

You know, that's only been two or three years.

Hibbert was only 30 years old.

It's the golden age of a center forward.

He's really faltering on the field right now.

In front of the strong and dense Adams, he looked quite weak.

This mistake gave the Thunder a chance to equalize.

Westbrook gets the ball.

At this time, Wang Shuang once again ridiculed Durant: "Kevin, your chance has come, a chance to equalize." Do you dare to make a move? Can you enter? Do you want to give it a try? ”

Wang Shuang beeped at Durant.

Can Durant endure it?

Decisive to come out and ask for the ball.

Durant asks for the ball, can Westbrook not give it?

It may not have been given before, and it was on top.

That is, it is often said that Wei Shao prevented Durant.

No one else could stop Durant from making a move.

Only Wei Shao can, because he doesn't give the ball!

But this season Wei Shao has matured.

Durant asks for the ball, and he won't turn a blind eye.

Decisive pass to Durant.

Durant is 45 degrees on the right side, throwing off Wang Shuang's position.

Pull out the three-point shot again!

This king has learned the lesson just now.

Didn't stick too close.

Gave Durant space.

He had to gamble at this point.

Bet on Durant's bad hand.

Sure enough, the ball clattered and hit the basket.

Didn't go in!

Durant's face was solemn.

Wang Shuang laughed: "Give you a chance, you are useless!" ”

The Lakers fought back.

Kobe Bryant, who was holding the ball, didn't rub.

Straight to the basket in the middle, left-handed layup!

Jammed by Ibaka and missed.

But Randolph followed, and the basket was successful!

The reason why Randolph was able to grab the rebound in the front court was this ball.

It's because the Thunder players are focused on Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang was stuck by two people.

As a result, Randolph was empty.

Wang Shuang's frontcourt rebounding threat is too great.

However, the fat man Lan is also very good at grabbing.

At his peak, he was also a rebounder who averaged 4 frontcourt rebounds per game.

The Lakers scored two points and the margin was back to five.

The game seems to be getting into the Lakers' rhythm.

Ibaka hit another mid-range jumper.

He felt good shooting in the second half.

But Wang Shuang received a pass from Kobe Bryant on the left side.

Hit a three-pointer!

Without wearing the [God's Left Hand] prop.

Wang Shuang still hit a three-pointer.

His shooting touch is still good.

At 59:65, the difference came to 6 points.

Then, the two sides began to take turns striking iron.

The intensity of the Lakers' defense is not great.

Because the referee's whistle is tighter.

But the Thunder's offensive touch is not good.

Adams misses a hook under the basket.

The Lakers fought back, and Clarkson's layup didn't go in.

Wang Shuang's follow-up basket did not go in.

In turn, Durant rushed to the basket with the ball from the outside.

If you want to find a foul, use free throws to score.

As a result, Wang Shuangfang's defense was very good.

In the three-second zone, it is Wang Shuang's domain.

The Death Mask exudes terrifying energy.

Wang's block interfered with Durant's layup.

missed, Wang Shuang grabbed the backcourt rebound steadily.

However, the Lakers' offense has also fallen into a state of constipation.

Randolph singles Ibaka with the ball.

But it was very defended and had no chance.

Give Kobe Bryant, or Kobe Bryant will solve it.

Bryant sped up to shake off the defender.

Shot at the last second of 24 seconds.

Mid-range whistle hit!

You still have to watch Kobe Bryant when you're going to be strong.

On the other hand, what about the Thunder?

Durant is once again high and lasting.

He's a bit of a broken mentality now.

Wang Shuang's words kept echoing in his ears.

He had already begun to doubt himself.

Is he really not good, really not the Thunder Boss?

"Fuck you!"

Durant cursed in his heart.

Then hold the ball and change direction, accelerate and rush to the basket!

A basket toss, with Hibbert's interference, still doesn't go in!

"What is Kevin playing this ball? Is he going to shoot or go to the basket? Why not go in and look for confrontation and look for fouls? Scared of Hibbert? ”

Barkley was puzzled by Durant's hesitation when he made the shot.

He didn't look for the body to fight the layup.

There was no pull-up jump shot either.

Instead, choose a non-trivial toss......

The ball didn't go in, but the Thunder grabbed the rebound.

Durant just made a layup, and everyone rushed out of the bottom line.

None of them were on the field.

The frontcourt rebound was grabbed by Ibaka.

Given to Wei Shao in the middle lane.

Wei Shao didn't even think about it.

Catch the ball and rush to a step to stop and jump and shoot.

Hit two points!

Durant watched as Willis scored.

I don't think it's a good taste?

What's going on, they're teammates!

Yes, they are teammates.

But Durant is just a little unhappy.
