Chapter 420: Thunder Says No to Uncrowned Champion!
Ibaka is in a dilemma again, Thomas Jr.'s breakthrough is fast, and Harden really can't keep up.
Harden during the Thunder period was very strong and active defensively, and he was not yet eye-to-eye defense, but his weight was on the high side, and it was a little difficult to defend the small and fast guard.
And Ibaka has to target Zhou Yang again, which makes the Thunder's defense porous.
Zhou Yang is not always invisible, he will occasionally come out and do it.
The Thunder couldn't defend against the Warriors' offense, and the Warriors couldn't defend against the Thunder's offense, and the two sides continued to fight against each other.
Five minutes were played in the fourth quarter, and the score of the two teams came to 102-101, and the Thunder led by one point.
The score was so close that no one could predict the final outcome.
Maybe only Zhou Yang's fans are not worried at all, because at the critical moment, Zhou Yang will definitely stand up!
Nelson Sr. thought so too.
So he put his hands on his shoulders and looked indifferent.
And Brooks has a solemn face, in his heart, Zhou Yang is stronger than any player of the Thunder, including Durant.
Although he tried his best to open up the difference before the fourth quarter, Zhou Yang disagreed!
The two sides began to change to the main lineup and make a last-ditch fight.
The Thunder players also didn't want to drag it out to the end, so the offensive firepower was fierce.
Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, and Collison stayed on the court, which should be the Thunder's strongest offensive lineup.
On the Warriors' side, the mix is reasonable.
Yang Zhou, Curry, Chandler, Turkoglou and Tony Allen.
Balance between offense and defense.
The Thunder attacked, Wei Shao dribbled past half court, burst into the restricted area, and distributed the ball to Durant.
After Durant attracted the defense, he suddenly distributed the ball to Harden.
At this time, Harden's ability to hold the ball and not the ball is top-notch.
After receiving the ball, he took advantage of Curry's three-point shot before he pounced, and hit!
This is the butterfly effect, and the Splash Brothers brought basketball into the three-point era early, so other players have also strengthened their three-point shooting ability in the offseason.
Harden's three-point shooting is obviously more fierce than the Thunder in the parallel world.
The margin came to four points, and the Thunder took the lead.
Warriors offense.
Zhou Yang hit near the bottom line, faced Ibaka's help defense, and stuffed the ball to Chandler, wanting Chandler to bully Collison.
The boxing king's physicality is no problem crushing Collison, but his hand work for the layup is indeed a little rougher.
The basketball swung around the basket and fell out, and Ibaka protected the rebound.
Chandler angrily slapped his head.
Ibaka passed the ball to Wei Shao, who drove full speed and killed the half.
Zhou Yang quickly returned to the defense and chased after him.
Calm the turtle possessed again!
Wei Shao didn't go up, but passed the ball horizontally to Durant, who came up.
Death wields his scythe, and hey!
Three points again.
The Thunder have a seven-point lead.
The fans at the Devils' home stadium were so excited that the roof of the stadium was about to be lifted.
Nelson Sr. panicked a little and wanted to call a timeout.
But Zhou Yang waved his hand at him, and old Nelson understood.
Warriors offense.
Zhou Yang dribbled to near the left touchline, drew Ibaka over, and passed the ball to Turkoglu at a 45-degree angle.
Curry, covered by Tony Allen, ran towards the bottom corner.
Wei Shao hurriedly chased after him, but Curry made a sharp stop and returned to the sideline.
Turkoglu immediately passed the ball, and after Curry received the ball, he made a quick three-point shot!
Wei Shao pounced too hard, knocking Curry to the ground.
Swish!
At the same time as Curry fell, the basketball hollowed into the net.
Honk!
The referee's whistle blows, 3+1!
Zhou Yang ran over excitedly and helped Curry up.
It's nice to have a cylindrical Curry......
Wei Shao shook his head angrily, and he was also slapping his head, blaming himself for being too fierce.
Curry walked to the free-throw line and hit a free throw.
The margin was back to 3 points.
Thunder offense.
Zhou Yang deliberately blocked in front of Wei Shao, and at the same time commanded Tony Allen to defend Harden and Curry to defend Durant.
Wei Shao took a look, isn't this? Can Curry guard Durant?
So he didn't hesitate to pass the ball.
Who knows, at the moment when Durant received the ball, Tony Allen suddenly wrapped around the front and broke the ball!
This is the role of Zhou Yang's command just now.
Curry's defense of Durant is just a trap.
Wei Shao knew that he had been fooled, so he had to go after Tony Allen.
But Allen didn't give a chance at all, and passed directly to Curry on the other side.
Curry made a half-time feint to chase down the three-pointers.
Both Ibaka and Durant pounced for the big hat Curry.
But Curry took the ball back and passed it to Zhou Yang from between the two.
Zhou Yang still didn't shoot many three-pointers today, but this was a critical moment, and the difference between the two teams was only three points.
So he's not welcome, and he directly shoots out the three-point line!
My three-point sword, happy as a fairy!
Swish!
A strong equalizer!
The home fans were dumbfounded, and the 7-point advantage was wiped out in an instant......
This splash brother is really amazing!
The scoring explosion is terrifying!
Old Nelson paced leisurely, bowed his head and snickered, even though it had been almost three years since he got the Splash Brothers, he still often asked himself-
"How did we get the ...... of these two players?"
Brooks was desperate, seeing that the Thunder were about to pull away and victory was in sight, but the Splash Brothers were so magical.
It's not a one-dimensional basketball.
He didn't call a timeout, he had to resign himself to fate.
Now we can only hope that the four young thunderers can stand up bravely.
108 flat!
There are 4 minutes and 41 seconds left in the game time.
Harden dribbled past half court.
Curry stepped forward to keep an eye on Harden.
Harden didn't entangle with Curry, and directly called Durant to come over to block the pick-and-roll.
These two people block and dismantle, it's too incomprehensible.
Durant blocked Curry, and Harden immediately passed the ball to Durant, making him play big and small, bullying Curry.
Tony Allen hesitated for half a second before Durant made a move.
Swish!
Three points again.
There is no way, Harden is also very hot in the fourth quarter, two glasses of poisoned wine, can only choose one.
111:108!
Thunder fans breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that the stars who can compete with the Splash Brothers are already in the Thunder Formation!
Zhou Yang nodded slightly, the Grim Reaper is indeed a bull, no wonder in another parallel world, he can fight out of the West and against the Big Three of the Heat.
If it weren't for the lack of experience, the Thunder Dynasty could really look forward to it.
Warriors offense.
Just when the Thunder players' attention was on the outside defense, Zhou Yang suddenly hit the penalty area, faced Collisson, and flew up.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ibaka hurriedly stepped forward to help defend it, and with Collison, he and Collison four arms, sealing all the space for Zhou Yang's layup.
Just when the players on both sides thought that Zhou Yang would definitely pass the ball, Zhou Yang yelled, handed the ball to his left hand, and at the same time bent over, turned around, and shrunk into a ball.
This anti-heaven action greatly lengthened Zhou Yang's stay in the air.
After Collison and Ibaka landed, Zhou Yang's feet hadn't landed yet!
