When Curry was interviewed, he was also full of praise for the Thunder.

If it were any other player, it might be polite, but Curry is a real person, and he really thinks that the Thunder players are really strong.

"I'm very good friends with Harden, the atmosphere of the Thunder team is very good, they shoot accurately, they defend very hard, and I think the Western Conference finals will be very exciting!"

The Splash Brothers praised the Thunder, but when the reporter interviewed the Thunder team, Si Shao was not so polite.

This is also normal, after all, the Warriors were last year's champions, and the Thunder, as a challenger, must show a tough attitude as a challenger.

Durant said to the media: "The Warriors' offense has been thoroughly studied by us, and we will solve the Warriors in five games and reach the Finals!"

Wei Shao said: "We will strengthen our attack in the game, the Warriors can't guard us, and this year's championship must be ours!"

Harden is very tactful, and his personality is not very strong.

"Yes, I have a good relationship with Zhou Yang and Curry, and we often hang out together in private, but now it's the Western Finals, I won't show mercy, and I will definitely defeat the Warriors!"

Three days later, the much-anticipated Western Finals began.

Eight p.m., Golden State Oracle Arena.

Warriors and Thunder's Western Conference Showdown, G1.

The Thunder's starting lineup is Durant, Westbrook, Ibaka, Perkins, Sefrosa.

The Warriors' starting five are Yang Zhou, Curry, Chandler, Turkoglu and Tony Allen.

Jumping the ball in the middle circle, Chandler grabbed the first wave of possession.

Because in the regular season, the Thunder put a lot of pressure on the Warriors, so as soon as the game started, the Warriors launched a wild attack.

Zhou Yang rarely swept the team's first three shots!

As soon as the game opened, the Warriors took the lead 5:2, and Zhou Yang made 2 of 3 shots and scored 5 points.

On the Thunder side, they relied on a breakthrough layup by Wei Shao to score 2 points.

Durant actually made 0 of 2 shots.

This was a big disappointment for many Thunder fans.

The fans of Oracle Arena were overjoyed, and they wanted to see Zhou Yang output at full strength.

Zhou Yang's early shot also boosted the confidence of the Warriors players.

That's what a superstar does, the more important the game, the more he should step up and win it in his own way.

Thunder head coach Brooks has done a lot of preparation for this series.

But at the beginning, he was still suppressed by Zhou Yang's momentum.

He didn't call a timeout, just stood on the sidelines, standing quietly, he thought that Durant would definitely fight Zhou Yang until the last moment.

Sure enough, Durant has also grown this season, stepping up his breakaway after missing his first two shots.

Durant's change of direction is simply too scary, and the amplitude is extremely large.

And the quality of the cover that his teammates gave him was higher.

Zhou Yang defended twice, but was blocked by Perkins and Ibaka.

Durant took the opportunity to hit the basket and dunked.

Several superstars in the league are very entertaining with dunks.

Needless to say, James, a representative of violent aesthetics, although he did not win the championship in the slam dunk contest, the tomahawk slam dunk in actual combat is also at the historical level.

The other is Zhou Yang.

He beat James in the dunk contest and won the championship, which shows that his dunk is quite explosive in terms of skill and strength.

In addition, there are violent guards like Wei Shao, Rose, and Wade, which are also very ornamental.

However, if you want to say Zhou Yang's favorite dunk, it is Durant!

Durant's long hands and feet like a big spider make his dunk look very relaxed, which is a beauty that other players say they don't have.

After Durant's dunk, Zhou Yang wanted to return the favor.

But Sephorosa really fought hard, Swiss Army

Before the competition, the knife studied Zhou Yang very thoroughly.

So he also thought about it, and would rather let Zhou Yang shoot and score than let him burst under the basket and dunk.

This aroused Zhou Yang's fighting spirit.

He hit the edge of the box, faced Seferosa, and suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the bottom line on the left.

Sephorosa moved quickly to block Zhou Yang's breakthrough route.

Who knows, Zhou Yang used the gyroscope to turn, and the whole person quickly turned in the opposite direction.

This gyro spin is different from the sports car Parker.

In terms of speed, it may be that Parker is faster, but Zhou Yang's gyroscope has a better sense of rhythm, which is very sudden.

Sephorosa's entire center of gravity had already hit the bottom line, but Zhou Yang's turn made him completely unable to react.

After turning to the middle lane, Zhou Yang kicked with his left foot, poof!

Fly.

At this time, Ibaka also came to help defend him, jumped high, stretched out his long arms, and wanted to destroy Zhou Yang's violent buckle!

But Zhou Yang actually collected the ball in the air, and then had a confrontation with Ibaka!

Bang!

Ibakano's big body was knocked away!

And Zhou Yang's body is still rising.

This core strength is truly breathtaking.

Bumped into Ibaka, Zhou Yang stretched out his right hand again and poured the ball into the basket!

Bang!

The Oracle Arena instantly erupted with a deafening roar, which was too domineering!

Especially when the big screen above was repeatedly played from all angles, the audience could see clearly that Zhou Yang had done so many actions in the air!

Many fans on the forum have a high evaluation of Jordan's aerial work, that is: the old hooligan hesitates in the air.

And Zhou Yang's violent buckle just now is similar to Jordan!

This goal will undoubtedly be the top 10 goals of the year!

Durant, as an opponent, although his face was expressionless, was already shocked in his heart.

In the next few rounds, Durant's touch recovered, and the Warriors, under the leadership of Zhou Yang, occupied a slight lead.

The first quarter played more than 5 minutes, and the score of the two teams was 13:12, and the Warriors led.

Enter the official timeout.

Zhou Yang and his teammates high-fived one by one and walked to the sidelines.

"Coach, replace me and rest for a while, and I'll play again at the end of the first quarter."

Zhou Yang suddenly sent a request to Old Nelson.

Old Nelson was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Zhou Yang has his own ideas and rhythms, and old Nelson usually listens to him.

Zhou Yang would use unexpected playing time to throw the opponent's defense into chaos.

Once, old Nelson jokingly said, "Zhou Yang, I heard that there is a very famous Art of War in Huaxia, have you read that book?"

Zhou Yang replied with a smile: "I haven't seen Sun Tzu's Art of War, but every stage of our Chinese history is full of strategy, and it still has an impact on me."

Old Nelson nodded enviously and said self-deprecatingly, "Better than us, haha, we are only a few hundred years old."

Zhou Yang shook his head and said, "It's nothing, you are also very strong, in terms of basketball, you are the number one in the world, you don't need to be modest!"
