Durant is very uncomfortable to defend, but he can't give up easily as an offensive strength for the Thunder.

Helpless, he had no choice but to take a step back and lean back!

This is too difficult, he was standing on the edge of the three-point line, this big step back, the height of the jump is not enough, and the shot is soft.

Boom!

The basketball smashed into the front of the basket and bounced out, and Chandler burst into a shout to protect the rebound.

Chandler made a long pass and flicked the ball straight to Tony Allen on the left.

Durant was depressed, he didn't expect Tony Allen to defend so well, so he rushed over and wanted to take revenge on Allen and give him a big hat.

But Tony Allen has a clear positioning for himself, in addition to defense, he is an empty basket, and he will not go to the opponent for a layup at all, not to mention that Durant with long hands and legs is on the opposite side.

So he made a cross and passed the ball to Thomas Jr.

Thomas Jr. was like a small motorcycle, suddenly drove into the restricted area, and scored two points on a layup.

Harden was in hot pursuit, but he didn't catch up.

One of the Thunder's offenses was destroyed like this, and it also made the Warriors fight back!

At 21:18, the Warriors took a three-point lead.

Brooks couldn't sit still, but just now there was an official timeout, and he couldn't call a timeout, so he could only roar on the sidelines to let the players attack more decisively!

Obviously, it was said to Durant.

Thunder offense.

Harden held the ball at the top of the arc and called Perkins over to cover.

After hitting the restricted area, the Warriors' attention was on the inside, and Harden suddenly stopped and made a jump shot.

That's what's so scary about Harden.

The sense of rhythm is so good.

You think he's going to fight on his own, and he gets it out.

You think he's going to pass it, but he votes for it himself!

The Thunder's ability to go from strength to strength in the West has a lot to do with Harden's role on the bench.

With 9:43 left in the first quarter, the score came to 28:25 and the Warriors led by three points.

Old Nelson replaced Zhou Yang and other main players with a full substitute lineup-

Jimmy Butler, Livingston, Turiaf, Randolph and Barbossa.

The Thunder also deployed troops, replaced the main force, and let Harden fight with a substitute.

Harden, Cook, Fisher, Collisson, Reggie Jackson.

In terms of book strength, it must be the Thunder who has a slight advantage.

But the Warriors have more Butler and Barbossa on the bench, and there are more variables.

The Thunder attacked, Harden assisted Cook again, made a three-point shot, and hit!

28 draws!

This is the third draw of the day.

The two youth armies fought inextricably and were evenly matched.

Back in the day, Livingston made it half and passed the ball to Butler.

At this time, Butler did not have the hard characteristics of a thief later, he was very young and a little nervous.

After receiving the ball, he shot in a hurry, and as a result, boom!

Deviated.

But he desperately grabbed the rebound, hit the rebound, and scored two points!

That's Jimmy Butler, never give up!

The Warriors fans at Oracle Arena were moved by Butler's hard work and applauded.

"These two rookies can do it this year, and they will perform as soon as they come up!"

"yes, I thought the rookies wouldn't be able to play when they came to the Warriors."

"The manager of the Warriors has a really good eye, praise one!"

"How did I hear that it was suggested by Second Brother Yang?"

"It's also possible, Second Brother Yang's eyes are too poisonous, and he really sees people accurately!"

……

In the past, the Warriors bench only had one offensive point for Livingston, and Turiaf was the response point, but now there is more Jimmy Butler, with mid-range and three points, which suddenly makes the Warriors bench stronger.

Although Harden played well on the offensive end with the Thunder off the bench, they couldn't guard the Warriors.

The scores on both sides alternately rose and were extremely intense.

At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two sides was 35:34, and the Warriors led by one point.

Nelson Sr., like the fans, was pleasantly surprised by the two rookies.

Although it is still only two pieces of jade, as long as it is polished for half a season, the bench will definitely shine.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Curry came on and replaced Barbosa.

With Curry, a historic shooter, the Warriors' bench lineup is even more terrifying, and the Thunder are a little overwhelmed.

Swish!

With Curry's 3-pointer from a 45-degree angle, the Warriors stretched the margin to six points.

45:39.

Brooks couldn't sit still, so he had to make another substitution, replacing Wei Shao and Harden going down to rest for a while.

After Wei Shao came up, the role was obvious, and on the offensive end, he moved forward bravely.

On the defensive end, he kept pestering Curry and disrupting Curry's shooting rhythm.

The two sides began to stalemate, and it was difficult to score.

The second quarter was 5:33, the score was 48:43, and the Warriors led by five points.

The old Nelson waved handsomely and replaced the full main lineup.

The decisive battle of the first half began.

The Thunder also replaced the full main force, and Durant and others appeared.

As soon as Durant came up, he took advantage of his teammates' cover, shot two points long, and hit!

But Zhou Yang was unceremonious, stepped back for three points at the top of the arc, and hit!

The margin is back to 6 points.

Durant was so depressed, he found that as soon as he scored, Zhou Yang would definitely return one, and he never missed in his impression.

In the next round, Wei Shao held the ball to the penalty area, attracted the defense, and wanted to pass the ball to Ibaka.

But Zhou Yang judged it in advance, snapped, and poked the ball off.

Turkoglu grabs the ball and launches a fast break.

Curry killed half the court from the other side, Turkoglu immediately passed, and Curry chased down the three-pointers!

Swish!

Three points and another hit!

The Warriors' lead instantly stretched to nine points.

Brooks panicked and hurriedly called a timeout.

For the Warriors, the points went up too quickly.

If you are not careful, you will pull it away to 15+, how can you play this game?

Zhou Yang and Curry stood on the sidelines, interacting with the audience, making the fans shout louder!

The Warriors' home court has become the league's most feared devil's home court.

The winning culture has been quietly formed!

The owners of the Warriors are smiling from ear to ear, and in the past two years, the market value of the Warriors has increased by more than 3 times.

Nelson Sr. knows that the Thunder's offense is strong, and he will definitely fight back in a while.

So he has been emphasizing that the defense must be strengthened.

"The Thunder want to play against us, but while we are attacking, we must do a good job defensively, because our goal is not the regular season, but the playoffs, the championship, the two championships!"

Old Nelson's chicken soup is fragrant and thick, and the Warriors players drink it with relish.

The timeout ended, and the Thunder attacked.

Sure enough, the Thunder's offense was more concise.

After Wei Shao broke through to the penalty area, he increased his means of attacking.

Don't look at Wei Shao's hands as hard as iron in the later stage, but in 11 years, Wei Shao's basket work was not bad.

Wei Shao fought 2 times in a row, which made Zhou Yang very annoyed.

After Zhou Yang returned a basket dunk, he ran to Tekoglu's side and whispered a few words.

The Thunder attacked, and Wei Shao continued to break through and hit the penalty area.
