Under the leadership of Zhou Yang, the Warriors in the third quarter still achieved a slight advantage.

The third quarter played more than 6 minutes, and the score came to 78-71, with the Warriors leading.

Brooks called another timeout.

It didn't look like the difference was much, but Brooks had that feeling of despair in his heart.

As long as Durant and Wei Shao score a difficult goal, Zhou Yang will definitely return one.

This kind of dominance is so rare.

The fans of the Oracle Arena kept chanting Zhou Yang's name, their hero played with ease today, and the fans felt relieved as long as they saw Zhou Yang get the ball.

Who can not love such a leading star?

The Warriors made a substitution, with Thomas Jr. coming on for Curry again and Jimmy Butler for Turkoglou.

The Thunder also replaced Harden with Wei Shao.

After the timeout, the game resumed.

The Thunder attacked, and Harden assisted Ibaka as soon as he came up, and scored 2 points in the air.

Not to be outdone, in the next round, he burst into the restricted area and passed to the empty Tony Allen, who made a layup and returned the 2 points.

For the talented Thunder Sishao, it is difficult to win by defense, and the Thunder score too many points.

If you want to defeat this promising youth army, you must suppress them with more fierce firepower!

The Thunder attacked, Harden pretended to break through, but when he moved at the feet of Thomas Jr., he suddenly stepped back and made a three-point shot!

There is no way, Thomas Jr. is not as good as Harden in terms of experience or talent, and it is really difficult to defend.

Swish!

Harden hit a three-pointer.

The beard is truly terrifying, and if his willpower can rise to the top, he will be a superstar at the all-time level.

can rush, can throw, can pass, and have the ultimate singles ability.

The body is also grass tolerant!

Harden hit a three-pointer, and the Thunder bench was jubilant.

Although Harden is a substitute, his status on the team is very high, and he is completely the core treatment.

Durant also ran over to high-five him and roared, and the momentum of the Thunder team was about to rise again.

Zhou Yang wanted to return the favor, but this time he encountered a fierce bag.

Because Thomas Jr. still has a speed advantage in the face of Harden, Zhou Yang passed the ball to Thomas Jr. and asked him to play one.

Harden did have a headache in the face of Thomas Jr.

Scold!

Thomas Jr. sped up and went to the right, and Harden immediately moved sideways to block.

But Thomas Jr. suddenly stopped, then dribbled behind his back, and the whole person turned to the left.

This is the advantage of being small, the center of gravity is too low, and the change of direction is particularly fast!

Although Thomas Jr. can't prevent Harden, Harden really can't prevent Thomas Jr.'s breakthrough.

Thomas Jr. passed Harden, hit the restricted area, threw a shot, and scored two points!

The Warriors fans stood up and cheered again, they loved the little man so much.

In the next few rounds, the outside line formed by Zhou Yang and Thomas Jr. suppressed Harden, and Durant, under the defense of Tony Allen, did not score efficiently.

With 9:53 left in the third quarter, the score came to 83:79 and the Warriors led by four points.

Old Nelson called a timeout.

This is just the regular season, there is no need to let Zhou Yang stay on the court, now it's time to change to the bench lineup.

It is very difficult to win two consecutive championships, and the most important thing is to make the team stable and not have big fluctuations in the mentality of the players.

The reason why many championship-winning teams fail in the second year is that the mentality of the players fluctuates too much.

For example, tactical position, salary structure, or conflicts between teammates are all factors that hinder the defense of the title.

Of course, the gap between the NBA teams is not large, and unless there is a strong team that stands out, it will be difficult to defend the title.

Zhou Yang and Nelson Sr.'s goal is to shape a championship team into a dynasty team.

Warriors bench players came in, with Butler, Thomas Jr., Randolph, Turiaf and Livingston on the line.

There is not much difference in the strength of the substitute lineups between the two sides, so the difference between the points is still not wide.

At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two teams was 89:87, and the Warriors led by 2 points.

Entering the fourth quarter with a 2-point difference, the game is destined to be played to the last minute.

Although the score is very close, anyone who knows the ball can see that the Warriors are indeed the dominant side.

However, there are no absolutes in everything, and the scoring explosiveness of the Thunder Four is also amazing, and it is possible if a wave takes away the game.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhou Yang continued to rest off the court, and Curry replaced Thomas Jr. on the court.

As soon as Harden came up, he hit a step-back three-pointer again, leading the Thunder to overtake the score.

90:89！

The Thunder's morale is high, and there is a tendency for a wave to take away the game.

But Curry didn't agree!

Looking back, Curry dribbled past half court, and in the face of Harden, he also came back with a three-point step!

Swish!

Splash!

Rough!

Curry's three-pointer won a full house of applause, and the Warriors fans instantly erupted and cheered.

The Thunder bench worked hard, and Harden continued to work.

Harden dribbled, slowly passed the half, called a cover, Collison came up to block Curry, and Harden killed the restricted area.

The Warriors are in chaos on the inside.

Harden hit the restricted area, threw a throw, and scored two more points.

No way, he wasn't fast, but when he got to the restricted area, he looked left and right, making the Warriors players think he was going to pass the ball.

As a result, Harden made a throw, ending the fight.

It was a beautiful goal that made the Thunder bench cheer again.

Curry gritted his braces in his mouth and had an excited look on his face.

He and Harden have a good relationship in private, but on the court, they are competitive opponents, and no one is convinced!

Curry dribbled past half court, faced Harden, and broke to the right again.

Harden moved slowly, but he relied on his strength and good card to block Curry.

But Curry's sudden back-dribble, coupled with a stop, threw Harden off half of his body.

If it was Curry last season, this stop-and-go move would be very likely to be injured.

Because his ankles are indeed too glassy.

But after two seasons of training, his way of developing has changed, and his ankle is much tougher.

So it's easy and enjoyable to do!

After shaking Harden, Curry burst to the top of the box and also made a throw, hey!

Pretty!

Wonderful!

Curry and Harden are on the bar.

Zhou Yang was going crazy on the sidelines, waving his towel constantly, jumping and jumping, happier than he scored himself.

Harden touched his beard, also full of interest.

Thunder offense.

Harden held the ball, Curry defended alone, and Harden did not call cover, but slowly dribbled the ball and observed Curry's movements.

Scold!

Harden pretended to break to the right, but dribbled under his crotch and moved to the left.

If you change someone, you will definitely be thrown off.

But Curry is too familiar with Harden, and Curry is very flexible, and with a kick of his left foot, he actually followed again.
