Chapter 544: Thunder is ahead

After the timeout, Zhou Yang appeared first, and Curry continued to rest.

Before the last time, Zhou Yang put his arms around Butler's neck and whispered a few words.

The game continues.

The Warriors attacked, and the Thunder replaced Sephorosa, who surrounded Zhou Yang with Lamb off the bench.

Zhou Yang didn't hit hard, and gave Butler a look.

Butler immediately came over to block Lamb, and Zhou Yang took the opportunity to break through from the right side.

Just as both men were chasing Zhou Yang, Butler suddenly moved sideways near the left touchline.

Zhou Yang passed the ball from the back of his head and accurately sent the ball to Butler.

Butler makes a three-point shot!

This season, Butler's three-point shooting rate is mediocre, shooting only 31%, and he doesn't take many shots.

But this guy is hard, and in the crucial fourth quarter, his three-point shooting rate will improve quickly, which is also a strange thing!

According to statistics, Butler's three-point shooting rate in the first three quarters was only 27%, and in the fourth quarter, the shooting rate was 42%!

That's why Zhou Yang trusts him so much.

Swish!

Three-point hit.

After the goal, Butler also shook his fist excitedly and roared, and at the same time ran to Zhou Yang, and the two hugged each other.

He lived up to Zhou Yang's trust and thanked Zhou Yang for his trust.

Zhou Yang patted him on the shoulder vigorously and encouraged: "You could have done it, continue to perform!" ”

"I will...... I will! ”

In the next round, the Thunder attacked.

Wei Shao arcs the ball at the top.

With his character, he has to respond strongly and keep the Thunder ahead.

Wei Shao's fighting spirit will never be extinguished!

Collison stepped forward to block Thomas Jr., and Wei Shao hit near the baseline.

In fact, his rush to the bottom line is just a means, not an end, or to compress the Warriors' defense.

Just now, he used this trick to frequently tear apart the warriors' defenses.

Wei Shao's eyes searched for Lamb's figure.

Who knows, Lamb was clinging to Butler like kraft candy, and he couldn't get out of the empty seat at all.

Wei Shao was helpless, and when he saw that there was not much time left to attack, he hurriedly made a move!

Boom!

It's short.

Zhou Yang jumped high, protected the rebound, and made a long pass directly to Thomas Jr. near the middle line.

The little train kills the half court and scores a basket!

One offense and one defense, two rounds, the Warriors recovered 5 points!

The Thunder also lead by nine points.

Brooks didn't dare to slack off, and quickly called a timeout.

He's going to change to the main force.

9 points is not safe, and the main players need to come up and stabilize the point difference.

Thunder fans are thrilled, and they seem to see hope of victory!

It was more than 6 minutes in the fourth quarter and a 9-point lead, which was not easy.

During the timeout, Nelson Sr. also redeployed his troops and replaced most of the main force, leaving Butler behind.

In these games, Butler's stable output in the fourth quarter made Nelson Sr. feel very gratified.

At the beginning, Zhou Yang named Butler, but the old Nelson was not very satisfied, he wanted a big man inside.

But it turns out that the Warriors' small-ball tactics can continue to be popular across the league, and a forward line is needed.

Butler's tough performance on both the offensive and defensive ends has made the Warriors' bench no weaker than any team.

The Thunder changed to the strongest lineup: Ibaka, Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Sefrosa.

They gave up the meat shield center Perkins just to play fast with the Warriors and fight for explosiveness.

On the Warriors' side, Chandler, Zhou Yang, Curry, Butler, and Turkoglu are also a super lineup.

The most exciting game began immediately, and some Thunder fans stood up and stared nervously at the situation on the court.

Thunder offense.

Harden holds the ball at the top of the arc, Curry defends alone, and Durant and Westbrook pull away one by one.

Serge Ibaka suddenly stepped up and blocked Curry.

Harden took advantage of the situation and went to the restricted area.

Chandler fought and retreated, waiting for Harden in the restricted area.

Harden looked at Durant and Wei Shao and found that there was no one to defend in front of Durant.

Golden opportunity!

Harden immediately passed the ball.

Who knows, as soon as Durant caught the ball, Zhou Yang rushed over.

Durant's heart tightened and wanted to pull it out directly, but Zhou Yang stuck it tightly and stuck his lower plate to death.

This can be regarded as grasping Durant's soft underbelly.

A shooter and not afraid that you will interfere with him in the upper limbs.

You can't touch his arm anyway, whatever you want.

It's like Battier, even if you seal my eyes, I can shoot and get in!

Because top shooters don't rely on eyes, just by feelings!

What is the soft underbelly of the shooter?

It's his next plate.

If his legs are restricted, then the force will not be able to do as much as he wants, and the muscle memory will be destroyed!

Durant was very uncomfortable and couldn't pull it out directly, so in desperation, he had to get off the ball first and slowly retreat backwards, looking for an opportunity to break through.

What Zhou Yang hopes for is this effect, and he must not be allowed to pull it out.

So Zhou Yang continued to press up, clinging to the defense.

In order not to be cut off by Zhou Yang, Durant turned sideways to Zhou Yang and slowly dribbled.

This talent is really strong, Durant's position, no one can break the ball.

Zhou Yang was not in a hurry, so he wrapped his legs around Durant and stared at his shoulder.

Hands can deceive people, feet can deceive people, but shoulders can't deceive people!

If the offensive team wants to collect the ball, or make a dry jumper, the shoulder will definitely show a flaw.

Sure enough, just when there were 4 seconds left in the Thunder's offensive time, Durant started at his feet, his shoulders sank, and he made a move to break to the right.

If it's another defender, you must move quickly to block Durant's breakthrough route.

But when Zhou Yang saw Durant's shoulder, he knew he was going to shoot.

If you go to block the breakthrough route, you will be deceived!

So Zhou Yang did not go around the front, but accelerated and went around the back of Durant.

Durant's shooting move is very fluid, so as long as he makes the first step, he will naturally use it later.

He didn't even notice that Zhou Yang had run behind him.

At the moment when he quickly collected the ball and was about to pull it out directly, Zhou Yang took it with his right hand and bang!

directly pulled out the ball in Durant's hand.

Durant jumped up, but the ball was gone, and in shock, he turned his head in the air to see that Zhou Yang had already launched a counterattack.

None of the others reacted, and Zhou Yang went to the meeting single-handedly and killed half the game.

Wei Shao was the fastest to react to the thunder, kicked the ground violently, rushed out, and chased after Zhou Yang closely!

Zhou Yang felt the footsteps behind him, and he was not in a hurry.

Now is the chasing stage, he not only wants to score two points, but also wants a penalty 2+1!

Originally, Zhou Yang had a good impression of Wei Shao and didn't want to pit him.

But this is a critical moment in the fourth quarter, the court is like a battlefield, each is its own master, and it can't be taken care of so much.

Zhou Yang slowed down a little and scored inside the three-point line.

Wei Shao caught up with Zhou Yang and wanted to break the ball at first.

But he hit twice, but he didn't touch the ball, Zhou Yang was too good at protecting the ball.

In desperation, Wei Shao changed his mind, he accelerated again, squeezed to the front of Zhou Yang's side, and was ready to destroy it again when Zhou Yang made a layup.

That's what Zhou Yang was waiting for!

Some people died, but not completely......
