On the evening of April 18,

The first round of the NBA playoffs is over, and the following scenes have not happened, and the regular season record has actually reflected the strength of each team.

The top 4 in the East all won easily at home, and the Heat, which many people were optimistic about before the game, was completely suppressed by the Celtics Big Three, and the two sides had a hand-to-hand fight, and in the end, 76:85, the Celtics who were fighting at home had the last laugh.

Aside from the Lakers and Trail Blazers games, the West was a bit intense, with the Mavericks and Nuggets playing until three minutes left in the fourth quarter, when Jason Terry burst out to win hard.

The Suns suppressed the Nuggets, Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll made the Nuggets' defense miserable, and the combination of Boozer and Oku finally struggled to withstand the impact of Stoudemire, and the Suns successfully protected their home court.

The most surprising thing is that the Thunder, whose core players are all rookies, actually beat the Spurs at home in the first playoff game, and also scored a terrifying 121 points.

Amika's media almost dropped their jaws, this is the Spurs, the GDP combination is full of players, with Tim Duncan 12-of-20, 3-of-5 free throws, and an efficient 27 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, the Spurs were beaten to the point of being powerless.

Shortly after the game between the Thunder and the Spurs, TNT's program began to analyze the game that surprised everyone, and in addition to two basketball commentators, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley, Reggie Miller also came to the scene.

"28 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, 12-of-16 shooting, including 2-of-3 three-pointers, 2-of-2 free throws, 5 assists, only two turnovers, God! Are you sure Kayce is playing the playoffs? ”

After Charles Barkley read the data of Li Ze in his hand, he showed a surprised expression and shouted loudly.

"28 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 2 turnovers, 10 of 18 shots, 8 of 8 free throws, Kevin Durant played impeccable in this game in addition to 0 of 4 three-pointers!"

"Add to that Russell Westbrook's 22 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 turnovers, and the Thunder's trio scored 78 points, and their performance was really crazy, man, did you ever think of this happening before?"

Kenny Smith also looked at the data in his hand in surprise as well, and then threw the topic to Reggie Miller next to him.

"Actually, I wasn't too surprised by the Thunder's performance, I know Kayce, even though he's still young, he knows how to lead a team, how to make his teammates better, and he can execute all the coaches' tactical arrangements perfectly."

"What I didn't expect was the way the Spurs lost, Tim Duncan had six turnovers, Ginobili had five, statistically the Spurs had 18 turnovers compared to the Thunder only 11, and that was the key to the game."

Reggie Miller just took a brief look at the full-court highlights before the show, until he saw the stat sheet in his hand, and he was surprised to find that the Spurs' turnovers were so high...

"Our director team quickly edited the Spurs' outside projection for everyone, and we can take a brief look at it first, oh! God, back-to-back open three-pointers, the Spurs were 3-of-19. ”

Kenny Smith watched the edited footage of the game and began to complain about the Spurs' poor performance.

"Reggie, as a legendary shooter, what do you think of the Spurs' outside shooting like this?"

Reggie Miller heard Kenny Smith's inquiry, thought briefly for a moment, and then spoke:

"I think it has something to do with the pace of the game, the defensive pressure they faced, and I haven't looked at the game carefully, but statistically speaking, the Thunder's high shots also show that they are playing at a fast pace."

"It's understandable to feel the pressure on the defense, we're all players, and when you're defending with all your strength against the attacking players who are defending the opposing team, your outside shooting is going to be affected, your body, your muscles, the way you shoot."

Reggie Miller briefly explained what could happen to the Spurs.

"I kind of understand what you mean, you're saying that the Spurs are under too much defensive pressure to cause the outside line to be inaccurate, it's really unbelievable, their opponent is a completely rookie team!"

Kenny Smith agrees with Reggie Miller, otherwise he really can't explain why the Spurs' perimeter line is so iron.

"Rookies are also graded, and obviously all three of the Thunder's rookies are all-time, especially Kayce's performance, where he has moved himself up to another level on both ends of the floor, which really reminds me of Michael Jordan."

Charles Barkley has been convinced by Lee's performance...

"Maybe everyone underestimates this Thunder team, they can achieve 61 wins, which can already explain a lot of problems, in the playoffs, it is actually very difficult to happen on the following grams, through this game, I believe that many people will add the Thunder team to the championship ranks."

Reggie Miller is also happy for Li Ze, who is also Li Ze at Bole, and playing such a performance in the playoffs against the Spurs completely proves how correct his vision was at the beginning.

"Charles, you've been saying that you can't win a championship with a jumper, you've seen the Thunder play like this, you've seen Kayce punish the Spurs like crazy in the mid-range, do you still hold on to that?"

Kenny Smith turned over the old accounts again and teased his old partner next to him.

"Well, I'm going to stick to my point of view, the playoffs, it all starts with a win on the road, the Thunder only did their job well in Game 1, and I'm sure the Spurs will fight back, after all, they're a championship team."

Kenny Smith almost laughed out loud when he heard Charles Barkley's words, it has to be you!

"Okay, let's wait and see, and then we'll review the Lakers and Trail Blazers game..."

......

Unlike Amissa's peers, the media and critics of the Celestial Empire are actually more concerned about Li Ze's personal performance, after all, many players killed all sides in the regular season, but in the playoffs, they performed abnormally crotch-pulling.

It's just that when the game between the Thunder and the Spurs ended, all the worries and doubts completely disappeared, and there was only one thought in everyone's mind: Li Zeniu X!

The game just ended, in the CCTV studio, Director Zhang drank a big sip of water, he blew the game very happily, after the game, only to find that he was a little dry...

The host Yu Jia saw that Director Zhang beside him was ready, so he said:

"After this game, the first round of the playoffs has all ended, and the audience can also take a look at the score at the bottom of our screen, and there are no upsets in the east and west."

"Coach Zhang, the Thunder team scored 121 points, this is almost a crushing game, you can make a brief summary of this game first."

"I'll talk about the Spurs first, I personally feel that Popovich's starting lineup is up for debate, George Hill obviously can't play such a high-intensity game, and the starting lineup still has to use Parker, and again, the Spurs' outside line is too iron, and Duncan's 6 turnovers are all caused by pinching."

"Popovich has to reshuffle his starting lineup if he wants to win on the road, and the Thunder don't play traditional basketball, they just rely on their outside talent."

"But we also have to admit that the Thunder's tactics have played out, and they have done a very good job of controlling turnovers, and in the playoffs, they really have to play like this!"

"Li Ze and Durant are both covering out to catch the ball and throw, Durant still has some breakthroughs, and Li Ze relies more on back skills, to be honest, the Spurs really can't defend, whether it's Ginobili or Jefferson, the defense has tried their best, but they just can't prevent it."

"In the next game, if the Spurs' three-point shooting is still the same as this game, then I think the game will not be too suspenseful, the Thunder's trio is too talented, and Popovich is probably not ready for this situation."

The host Yu Jia also nodded secretly when he heard Director Zhang's words, this game has lost suspense almost in the first quarter, and the Thunder's joint defense is indeed very effective.

"Thank you Director Zhang for your comments, the G2 game is just three days away, and the audience can also look forward to the situation of the two teams playing each other in the future, and we will also select two lucky viewers to give away Li Ze's autographed jersey!"

"I'll shout to start, Zhang instructs you to stop, let's not shout too fast."

"Let's go! ......”“......”

"Ahem, Director Zhang, it's your turn!"

"Ahh Stop! ”

......

In the first playoffs, the Thunder team got off to a good start, and the entire uniform group was happy, but I never expected that the game would be so easy.

Coach Brooks announced directly after the game that tomorrow morning's video session was canceled, and it was enough to come to the team to participate in tactical training in the afternoon.

With such a reward, everyone in the Thunder team is also very satisfied, the holiday is good, you can sleep until you wake up naturally...

Although Durant seemed very happy on the surface, after seeing the technical statistics, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he knew that his performance was still lost to Li Ze, and in the face of oppressive defense, his shooting percentage did drop.

But what Durant didn't understand was that in the face of Ginobili's strict defense, Li Ze was not affected much, and his performance was better than the regular season, which made him crazy in his heart:

"You must increase confrontational training in the offseason, do you want to practice your back-to-body skills?"

"What's wrong, Kevin? You look stunned, go out together in the evening to have a good time, just tomorrow morning holiday. ”

Jeff Green also played well in this game, scoring 14 points with ease, and grasped both open three-pointers, and after winning this game, he felt it was time to relax.

"Forget it, I'm going to do some shooting training tomorrow morning, and I don't feel like I'm playing very well in this game."

“？？？”

Jeff Green was speechless when he heard Durant's words, but he thought of Li Ze's play again, and immediately could only sigh that the world of geniuses is indeed incomprehensible...

"Russell, remember to come to my house tomorrow morning, Lefu and they are staying with me tonight, we can have a simple gathering tomorrow, the fans are so enthusiastic after the game, they haven't had time to communicate with everyone."

Li Ze was surrounded by the media in Russia after the game, coupled with the enthusiastic fans, it was really soft to sign the autograph.

"No problem, it just so happens that Bamot lost, we can comfort him well, by the way, Kayce, do you think I can get the MIP (Most Improved Player)?"

Turtle is still more eager for honor, and he really feels that he has improved a lot this season compared to last season.

"If I were a media reporter and a ball critic, I would definitely vote for you, don't worry, I think you have a good chance of winning this award."

Li Ze expressed his opinion, after all, because of his arrival, this season's turtle average 21.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game in the regular season, with a shooting rate of 42.3%, an increase of three percentage points from last season.

Although the three-point shooting rate is only 23.2%, a lot lower than last season's 27.1%, it doesn't matter, because the Thunder team has a good record, and the media reporters vote many times are also impressions, which still has an advantage.

"I wish I could win this award!"

On April 21st, G2 between the Thunder and Spurs is about to begin, and Popovich and his coaching staff have been discussing how to limit the Thunder for the past few days, but everyone has been discussing and discussing, and they have never found a good way.

"Greg, we should adjust the starting lineup and get Tony back in the starting lineup, we should let the GDP combination work hard at the beginning, as analyzed before, the Thunder insisted on stealing the start in the regular season, and we have to respond."

"Manu was very average after starting the last game, and we could probably have George and Toney in the backcourt and then put Manu on the court at the minute mark, George really didn't adapt to the intensity of the playoffs."

Popovich heard the coaching staff's suggestion, pondered for a moment, and then said in a firm tone:

"I'm still optimistic about George Hill, he will prove himself in the next games, for the young players, we have to encourage more, I will not change the starting line-up for this game, I believe Manu, he will adjust well, we will definitely feel better."

Several members of the coaching staff looked at each other, and they naturally knew that replacing George Hill at this time would be a blow to the young players, but this is a playoff game! Losing this game, they will fall behind the Thunder 0:2, in that case, they can only fight hard when they return to their home court...

"Okay, Greg, maybe you're right, but if we have a mediocre hand after the opening, we must make quick substitutions, the Thunder are definitely not an ordinary rookie team, Lee's control of the game is too good, once we fall behind to more than ten, we are completely passive."

When Popovich heard this, he also nodded to show that he understood that the head iron could not win the game, and he also understood that the Thunder team is a young team that rarely makes mistakes, and the opportunity cannot wait!

It's just that when he thought of Li Ze's performance in the last game, Popovich could only pray secretly in his heart:

"I hope that in this game, the opponent's hand will drop, and it would be good if Lee was a player for the Spurs."

The first playoff win made the fans in Russia even more enthusiastic, and an hour before the start of the game, there were many fans in blue cheering T-shirts around the Ford Center Arena.

Playoff tickets are a sought-after commodity, and many fans came here early, expecting to meet some scalpers who resell tickets, but disappointingly, this phenomenon did not happen at all, and perhaps scalpers have chosen to go to the scene to watch the game...

There was still half an hour before the start of the game, but the Ford Center Arena was already crowded, and the scene turned into a blue sea again, and many fans also played slogans for Turtle to support him to win the MIP award.

Kevin Love felt the hot atmosphere of the scene and said loudly to Holiday and Darren Collison beside him:

"Do you think the Thunder will continue to win tonight? I always felt like the Spurs were going to fight back. ”

"Unless they can shoot three-pointers from the outside, I'm still bullish on the Thunder."

"The Spurs simply can't contain Kayce and Durant, and if Russell can keep up with the last game, I'm sure the Thunder will win."

Holiday and Darren Collison said loudly at the same time, a few people from UCLA have stayed here at Li Ze's side, these days, the three of them are obsessed with fishing again, and they are preparing to rent a cruise ship and try sea fishing.

At this time, in the Thunder locker room, Coach Brooks was simply telling the players:

"The Spurs are definitely going to bounce back from the outside, and this game is like the previous arrangement, we have to play more patiently, forget about the last game, and don't think about leading the opponent by a big score in the first quarter."

"Keep up our offensive rhythm on the offensive end, Kayce, you take control of the team, control the mistakes, and finally I remind you again, don't argue too much with the referee, it's my job, guys, try to protect our home stadium and go to San Antonio with a 2-0 scoreline!"

"Oh!"

On the other side of the ocean, in the Celestial Empire, in the CCTV studio, perhaps because Director Zhang almost blew Li Ze into the sky, the director team of this game also changed the commentary combination, and the host Yang Jian and guest Yang Yi were chatting about the situation of the last game at this time.

"The Thunder scored 121 points in the last game, which is very rare in the playoffs, make a prediction, Yang Yi, how many points do you think the Thunder can score in this game? Can it continue the hot feeling of the last game? ”

The situation between the two sides is almost over, and the host Yang Jian starts the final link and guesses the winner.

"121 points is still too exaggerated, I think if Li Ze and Durant play normally, the Thunder may still score 110 points, but if you really want to get this score, then this game, the Spurs will definitely lose."

In the last game, he almost slapped Yang Yi's face, and he also wrote an article before the game, deliberately emphasizing the strength and experience of the Spurs, but after the game, he was ridiculed by many netizens, and by the way, he sent a picture of a slap in the face...

"110 points, the Thunder win, we can expect your prediction to be accurate, I like the Thunder to win at home, but in this game, I think it will be difficult for them to score more than 100 points, and the Spurs will definitely strengthen their defense."

"The starting line-up ahead is also out, and Popovich hasn't changed the lineup, which is a bit beyond our imagination, and it seems that the coaching staff continues to trust George Hill."

"The Spurs continued their starting lineup from the previous game, with George Hill and Manu Ginobili on the defensive line, Richard Jefferson and Tim Duncan at the front, and Antonio McDyce at center."

"The Thunder's starting lineup remains the same, the game starts right away, and we'll return the picture to the front first."

In the opening ceremony of the Thunder team, when Li Ze appeared, the big screen in the center of the venue also updated Li Ze's wonderful shots, and the scene of Duncan was cut in, which made the audience start to shout again...

In the final warm-up before the game, Durant naturally noticed the Spurs' starters, and he was very surprised to find that Tony Parker continued to come off the bench.

"We all thought Parker was going to be back in the starting lineup, and the Spurs trusted that rookie so much?"

This is a little different from the arrangement made by the coaching staff before the game, and Durant couldn't help but whisper to Li Ze next to him.

"It's just a fake starter, trust me, up to six minutes, the Spurs will switch to Parker, pay attention to Jefferson's defensive moves, they will definitely press your right hand and put your left hand to break through."

Li Ze was afraid that Durant would forget the pre-game deployment, so he reminded him in a whisper.

"Don't worry, I've been practicing my left hand for a season, and this kind of defense won't be difficult for me!"

When the referee signaled the players from both sides to come to the center of the court, Li Ze noticed that the players of the Spurs all looked serious, and completely lost the relaxed expressions of the previous game, and knew that the opponent would definitely strengthen the confrontation in this game.

"At the start of the game, Duncan easily jumped to the ball for the Spurs, George Hill quickly dribbled across the half court and immediately passed the ball to Ginobili, and Duncan was already starting to play low!"

Host Yang Jian faintly felt that the Spurs seemed to have accelerated the pace of attack.

Everyone on the Thunder team naturally noticed that Duncan received the ball in the low post, but unlike the previous game, Durant did not immediately take the bag, and it was Jeff Green who was alone in the single defense after the opening.

In the face of such a defense, Duncan made two shots, went deep into the paint area, tilted his body, and threw his right hand with ease.

"Hmmm...", two points from the basket.

"Shhh

“OKC！ OKC！ OKC！ ”

The crowd at Ford Center booed Duncan and then cheered on the home team's offense, led by the live DJ.

The Thunder quickly sent out a baseline ball, and the turtle dribbled across the halfcourt, and immediately handed the ball to Li Ze outside the left three-point line, and at the same time, using Jeff Green's cover in the left elbow area of the free throw line, he suddenly ran back and cut to the bottom line.

Li Ze's pass was also just right, accurately finding the turtle, so that the latter could go to the basket after receiving the ball.

"Huh..."The sneak attack under the basket succeeded.

"Whew!!"

In the first offensive round, the Thunder scored easily, and everyone began to cheer for the turtle's goal.

"George Hill has obvious problems defensively, Westbrook simply reversed and actually shook off the defense, this is the playoffs, and the defense has to come up with some aggression to see if Popovich will make any substitutions for a while."

Yang Yi couldn't help but complain when he saw George Hill's performance like this.

The Spurs' offense, Duncan and Antonio made a cross cover on the baseline, and immediately came to the elbow area to receive the ball, George Hill wanted to go over and play a hand-to-hand hand, but he couldn't get rid of the tortoise's entanglement, and ran away in desperation.

At this time, Ginobili quickly moved to the upper line, and when he approached Duncan, he exerted force at his feet, a simple reverse run, and temporarily got rid of Li Ze's entanglement, and after Ginobili received Duncan's pass, he accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand.

The Thunder's defense contracted instantly, and Ginobili did not force the offense, and after breaking to the baseline, he threw the ball to Jefferson in the bottom corner, who received the ball and did not hesitate to shoot a jumper from outside the three-point line.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

"Oh!!"

Seeing the Spurs hit a three-pointer so early, the Russian City fans were shocked and exclaimed in unison, this is not a good phenomenon!

"Jefferson scored his first three-pointer for the Spurs in the opening game! Let's see if they can get their groove back in this game. ”

After the host Yang Jian saw the Spurs score a three-pointer, he also instantly raised his voice.

Li Ze immediately made a gesture to his teammates, indicating that the ball was his problem, and Ginobili's first move was indeed very fast, and he was just rushed by the opponent...

The Thunder attacked, and Durant blocked the area near Kostic's cover, got rid of Jefferson, who was dragged by the belt, and after receiving the pass from the turtle, he dribbled with his left hand and immediately made a jump shot.

"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.

"Ahh

“

Defense！ Defense！ Defense！ ”

"Sir, you'll have to get them to pay attention to their defensive moves, Jefferson obviously pulled my player this round!"

With the atmosphere at Ford Center so hot, Coach Brooks had to complain loudly to the linesman that he had to put pressure on the referees, otherwise the Spurs' defensive moves would definitely get louder.

When Duncan received the ball in the low post again, the Thunder still did not choose to pinch the defense, and were scored 2 points again, and when it came to the offense, Li Ze was strictly defended by Ginobili.

When Li Ze and Jeff Green were doing cross screens on the baseline, Ginobili deftly bypassed the screen, and at the same time, kept sliding and one hand was always on Li Ze's body.

However, Li Ze's body was strong, he exerted force under his feet, and quickly moved to the waist position, holding Ginobili with one hand, leaning back, and opening his hand to ask for the ball with the other hand.

After receiving the pass from the turtle, he put the ball in his right hand, dribbled a step into the paint area, quickly closed the ball and pretended to shoot, and the realistic feints instantly flew Ginobili, and Li Ze instantly took his left foot as the axis, turned dexterously, and shot a mid-distance jumper.

The two-pointer hit the ball steadily.

"What a ball! Li Ze must have studied Michael Jordan's technical moves, and this goal was so beautiful that it completely shook off Ginobili's defense! ”

After Yang Yi saw Li Ze hit the shot, he immediately started blowing without going through the procedure.

Coach Brooks on the sidelines frowned slightly, he naturally discovered the strategy of the Spurs, unlike the previous game, the opponent strengthened the defense on the off-ball end, and did not let Li Ze and Durant easily reach their offensive positions.

"It's just that the Spurs should consume more of this kind of defense, right?"

After the official timeout of the game in the first quarter, the Spurs brought on Tony Parker, DeJuan Blair, George Hill and Antonio, and Popovich increased the rotation of personnel.

Li Ze soon discovered that the Spurs began to use fouls to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Thunder, and it was obvious that Blair was on the court with a mission.

When Durant was about to receive the ball, Blair directly exerted his force and pushed Durant to a stumbling moment, and the referee's whistle sounded:

"Squeak...""Shhhh

"It's not a basketball move at all, does he think he's playing rugby! This should be a first-degree malicious foul! ”

Coach Brooks was very unhappy with the decision, and the referee would not change it because of his complaint, it was still a normal foul, and the Thunder served on the sideline.

For the rest of the game, the whistle blew frequently, but the Spurs' strategy still worked, and by the end of the first quarter, at 24:24, the two sides were tied, and the Thunder lost their offensive rhythm somewhat.

At the break, Coach Brooks looked at his players and said encouragingly:

"We played really well, guys, be patient, as we expected before the game, it was going to be a tug-of-war, but we will definitely win this game in the end!"

"Sovlosa, Ibaka, Collison must protect the rebounding ball when they come on the court, Kayce, you take control of the team's offense, Green, and continue to shoot when there is an opening."

When Li Ze heard Coach Brooks's arrangement, he knew that this was a temporary adjustment, and he played directly to the No. 1 position, and the Thunder team lined up a five-forward lineup, and the players on the court were all more than two meters tall.

"Don't worry, coach, I'll leave the game to me!"

At this time, he has to show his confidence, Li Ze faintly feels that Jeff Green has a super ghost phenomenon this time, and this lineup in the second quarter is to let him let go, and others play on the defensive end...

Coach Popovich no longer believes in George Hill at this time, and in the second quarter of the rotation, Parker, Ginobili, Jefferson, Matt Bonner, and Antonio played, and he still trusted the veterans more.

It's just that seeing who the Thunder's rotation lineup is, Popovich also faintly feels bad in his heart...

“OKC！ OKC！ OKC！ ”

The crowd at Ford Center Arena began to cheer on the home team again, and although the first quarter was a little dull, the team played very well overall.

The baseline ball was issued, and Li Ze, who hit the No. 1 position, quickly dribbled the ball across the half, noticed that Ginobili's defense immediately followed, and immediately made a tactical gesture, and Ibaka quickly lifted up.

Li Ze faced Ginobili's defense, changed direction in front of his left hand, and pretended to break through on the right side, Ginobili was very tight on the defense, trying to squeeze through the cover, but Li Ze's right hand suddenly turned around and shook off the opponent at once.

At this time, Matt Bonner's defense quickly caught up, seeing Li Ze lower his body center of gravity, holding the ball in his left hand and wanting to break through, he couldn't help but take a step back first, but this was obviously a wrong defensive choice, Li Ze instantly pulled back from his crotch, and then jumped outside the three-point line.

"Huh..."Three-point shot hollow net.

Li Ze shook off Ginobili's defense, hey, shot? Three-pointer, score!! This goal can be scored! ”

Host Yang Jian almost said directly that this was not a good shooting option, but the ball went in...

"Hah!! Yes!! ”

The Russian fans at the scene erupted in a huge exclamation, juggling three-pointers, terrifying body coordination, completely shaking off the two defenders, and everyone screamed excitedly.

Seeing Li Ze's booth hand, he quickly returned with a calm face, and the atmosphere of the home field was ignited again, and under the leadership of the live DJ, everyone began to shout loudly:

“Defense！！ Defense！！ Defense！！ ”

The Spurs attacked, Tony Parker immediately sensed that something was wrong, and the Thunder's defensive aggression improved too much.

Li Ze and Soflosa were staring at Parker and Ginobili, Collison naturally followed Bonner to stand outside the three-point line, Ibaka was responsible for helping to defend inside, the Spurs continued to pass the ball on the outside, and Jefferson received the ball and crossed steps to break through Jeff Green's defense.

Seeing the huge space on the inside, Jefferson continued to accelerate with the ball in his left hand, wanting to make a one-arm dunk, but as soon as he took off, Ibaka instantly showed his terrifying defensive talent and directly flipped Jefferson's hat to the ground.

After controlling the ball, a pass to Li Ze, quickly launched a conversion attack, and Matt Bonner, who was standing at the top of the arc outside the three-point line, made the first defense, noticing that Li Ze began to slow down outside the three-point line, and had to quickly defend it.

Li Ze, who was outside the three-point line, naturally noticed Bonner's defense, and after slowing down, he was in the right hand

and

out, feign a breakthrough, dribble twice quickly on the spot with the right hand, change the rhythm, and then pull back instantly.

Matt Bonner thought that Li Ze was going to shoot another three points, and immediately moved his center of gravity forward, but Li Ze changed direction under his left crotch and pretended to break through again, and Matt Bonner quickly took a big step back.

When he saw Li Ze's sudden dribble behind his back and retreated to jump and throw, he subconsciously pounced forward, but as a result, he was mixed with garlic under his feet and fell directly to the ground...

"Huh..."Three-point shot hollow net.

"Li Ze slowed down, hey? Voted?! Three-pointer, still scored?! Incredible goal. ”

"This goal is still in?!"

Because Li Ze's series of movements were too fast, the host Yang Jian and guest Yang Yi didn't have time to explain, just saw Matt Bonner being shaken to the ground, and then the two shouted goals...

When the audience at the Ford Center Arena saw Li Ze raise his hands and signal the scene to get high, everyone shouted excitedly, this ball was simply on display! Everyone began to shake the white handkerchiefs in their hands, and the scene seemed to be a sea of blue and white.

"Ahh Whew!! ”

Li Ze, who let go of the wheel, burst out with terrifying projection ability through the blessing of the [Hot Zone Hunter] + [Ankle Terminator] + [Rhythm Shooter] + [Circus Three Points] badge, such a three-point shot does not make any sense at all...

Coach Popovich yelled from the sidelines, signaling his players to step back quickly and not let a big man like Matt Bonner defend Lee.

When the Spurs attacked again, the continuous breakthrough points still couldn't get rid of the Thunder's defense, Tony Parker suddenly changed direction in front of his body, got rid of Li Ze, accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand, and turned quickly in the middle of the journey, wanting to make a signature low-handed layup.

But this offense was still interfered with by Ibaka, and he knocked out the basket directly, and Ibaka took advantage of the situation to protect the backcourt rebound, and at this time the Spurs 5 people had quickly retreated.

Seeing that there was no chance to switch offense, Li Ze signaled his teammates to slow down, slowly dribble through the halfcourt, and make an offensive gesture for everyone, and at the same time signaled Sofrosa to come to the right side outside the three-point line to receive the ball.

Ibaka came to the free throw line near the elbow area at this time, and immediately moved a step up at the moment when Li Ze passed the ball to Soflosa, Li Ze suddenly ran back, with the help of Ibaka's cover, got rid of Ginobili's defense, and Tony Parker quickly followed up at this time.

There was no chance at the first time, Soflosalik passed the ball to Ibaka at the top of the arc, at this time Li Ze quickly popped out along the baseline, and Jeff Green and Collison also took advantage of the situation to make a cover for Li Ze to block the defense.

When Li Ze came to 45 degrees outside the three-point line, he received a pass from Ibaka, there was no one in front of him, and he quickly jumped and shot.

"Huh...", the three-pointer went in again.

Coach Brooks on the sidelines saw Li Ze shoot a three-pointer again, and he also held his head with both hands, showing an expression of disbelief, and Turtle Turtle and Durant led the atmosphere team on the bench to throw towels wildly...

"Ahh

The Thunder led by 9 points in an instant, and the fans in the Russian City had already begun to shout wildly, and such a gorgeous individual offensive performance completely ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.

"Squeak..."

Less than three minutes into the opening of the second quarter, Popovich quickly asked for a timeout, what a strange way of playing, which made him think of the regular season when he met the Thunder, but tonight is the playoffs, Li Ze's choice of shot, in his opinion, is all unreasonable...

During the pause, in the CCTV studio, the host Yang Jian and the guest Yang Yi also calmed down their mood, they really haven't seen this meeting...

"This is the playoffs, this is the stage of superstars! These three three-pointers instantly gave the Thunder team a 9-point lead, and the momentum of the game returned to the Thunder's side! ”

Always Yang Jian nodded in agreement after hearing Yang Yi's words, and then said:

"The game is won or lost, sometimes in a matter of minutes, and let's see how the Spurs respond next."

The Spurs, who came back from the pause, did not adjust the lineup, after all, Duncan still needs to rest for another two or three minutes, and Popovich does not believe that Li Ze can continue to shoot like this, but in the playoffs, many times, it may be the role players who decide the trend of the game.

In the rest of the game, Ibaka showed his talent at both ends of the pitch!

In the second half, when Jeff Ge Lin fell into a superghost state, Brooks head coach directly replaced Ibaka on the court, and the improvement in cover quality also freed Durant's offense.

And Ibaka's excellent defensive ability also allowed the turtles to play a quick transition offense many times, and the Thunder once again mastered the rhythm of the game.

By the time there were 3 minutes and 42 seconds left in the third quarter, the Thunder had already led by 14 points, and the Spurs in the fourth quarter had only struggled for more than 4 minutes before Coach Popovich replaced the main team, and he was about to start thinking about the tactical arrangement of the home game...

At 96:110, the Thunder once again defended their home court, and Li Ze still scored 26 points, 6 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 turnovers efficiently in this game, but the biggest contributor to the victory was Ibaka.

Ibaka played 38 minutes, shooting 5-of-5 from the field, finishing with 10 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks, and was impeccable on both ends of the floor.

After the game, Li Ze saw that Ibaka was still stunned on the bench, and immediately stepped forward to pat the opponent's shoulder and shouted:

"Serge, go and receive the cheers of the fans in the city! You're the hero of this game! ”

Turtle and Durant also led their teammates to start coaxing, and the audience at Ford Center Arena saw the Thunder everyone raising Ibaka's hands and immediately cheered:

"Oooooooooo!!oo

While enjoying the victory of this game, Li Ze also silently thought in his heart:

"The playoffs, starting with an away win, San Antonio, I'm coming!"
