Chapter 604: There is no danger

It's getting harder and harder for Durant to catch the ball.

Zhou Yang and the Warriors players adopted a variety of defensive strategies around the front and wrapping up.

To put it bluntly, it was someone else who beat me to death, and I admit it!

It's just not to let Durant touch the ball comfortably.

This strategy made the Thunder's offense almost come to a standstill.

Although Wei Shao also shouldered the heavy responsibility and kept breaking through, his projection ability was insufficient, so he could only rush to the basket.

But the Warriors had boxing champion Chandler guarding the basket, and they couldn't kill it at all, and they were all capped.

The Thunder not only did not catch up with the score, but the score difference was widened again.

After more than six minutes in the third quarter, the score of the two teams came to 77:56, and the Warriors led by 21 points.

This is the Western Conference Finals, and it is the home court of the Thunder, no one expected that the Warriors would be spent in the third quarter!

Thunder head coach Brooks was standing on the sidelines with a blue face, his eyes on fire.

If it weren't for the assistant coach reminding him, he would have forgotten to call a timeout.

The Thunder called a timeout, and the player walked to the sideline with his head down, looking dejected.

Durant was even more dazed, he couldn't figure out how he could return to his home court and be beaten so badly......

"What are you all doing? The Warriors have increased their defensive intensity, and you can't stand it? This is the Western Conference Final, not the regular season! ”

Brooks yelled at the player.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that the Thunder players were not not working hard or slacking off, but that the Warriors' defensive intensity was too great.

But as a coach, you have to try to motivate your players because it's the third game.

Even if you lose, prepare for the rest of the series.

The Thunder players all bowed their heads, and they were also helpless.

Brooks made a substitution, and Harden was back on the pitch.

In addition to Durant, Harden's projection is the strongest, and Wei Shao's projection is really unstable and can only rely on breakthrough offense.

After the timeout, the game resumed.

With Harden on the court, the Warriors are less frantic with Durant.

With Harden in place, he can punish opponents when Durant is trapped.

The Warriors were also prepared, and after Harden came up, Curry defended Harden and forced him to break through.

Harden did evolve, and in the face of Curry's ferocious defense, he scored strongly by stepping back for three-pointers.

After the break, Harden can also easily eat cake and score by throwing or assisting Ibaka.

The two sides began to stalemate, and the score difference was always around 20 points.

Although the effect was obvious after Harden came up, the Warriors were also scoring, so the situation was still not in favor of the Thunder.

Game time is getting less and less, and if you can't limit the Warriors' offense, then the Thunder won't be able to score even if they can't score.

So the Thunder players started to mess up on the defensive end.

When Ibaka was defending Zhou Yang and Curry, he used a dark move.

Curry tripped over Ibaka and rolled on the ground in pain, and Nelson Sr. quickly replaced Curry.

Fortunately, Curry was very flexible and fell to the ground in time to unload, and there was no major problem.

But in the subsequent game, Zhou Yang was pushed in mid-air by Ibaka.

The referees didn't get used to Ibaka this time, blowing him a second-degree malice, and the Warriors made two free throws and one technical foul.

Ibaka let it go, and he did it just to get Zhou Yang injured.

This action was indeed very dangerous, and Zhou Yang fell heavily to the ground.

However, no one could have imagined that Zhou Yang would not be harmed at all if he was systematically protected.

Although the fall was really painful, Zhou Yang lay on the ground for a while and stood up slowly.

The other players of the Thunder stood next to them, although they were silent, but they were also looking forward to it, hoping that Zhou Yang would not play today.

Of course, most of the players are not so bad, they don't want Zhou Yang to be reimbursed for the season, but they just want to win today's game too much.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yang stood up again, and Ibaka's eyes were about to pop out.

Is that okay?

Zhou Yang moved his arms and legs and slowly walked in front of Ibaka.

The referee thought that Zhou Yang was going to make a move, so he hurriedly came over and blocked the two of them, so that Zhou Yang was calm and calm.

Zhou Yang smiled and said to Ibaka: "You are too gentle, haven't you eaten?" Try it hard next time! ”

How ugly and ugly Ibaka's face is, it's really a loss and a loss.

Zhou Yang first hit a technical free throw, and then hit two more free throws.

The score difference is getting bigger and bigger.

Since Zhou Yang is fine, the game is basically over.

In the next game, Zhou Yang continued to be alive and active on the court, omnipotent.

Ibaka saw it and knew that the day was over.

Zhou Yang not only did not go to rest, but played the third quarter full.

At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two teams was 94:67, and the game was completely spent.

Curry rested down for a while, and nothing happened, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Curry came out with a bench.

The Thunder struggled for a few minutes, and when they looked at the point difference, it was still 20+.

Brooks had no choice but to raise the white flag and announce his surrender.

After all, this is a series, save your stamina first, and strive to win the opponent in the next game.

Nelson Sr. saw that the Thunder replaced all the core players and replaced them with water cooler players, so he waved his hand and also changed to a full bench lineup.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Thunder by a big score on the first away road, rewriting the big score to 2:1!

After the victory, the media and fans were shocked.

Who would have thought that the Warriors, who played so hard in the Western Conference G1, would actually abuse the Thunder after coming to the away game.

This bleaked the Thunder's prospects for advancement.

What Warriors fans are most concerned about is Zhou Yang and Curry's bodies.

After all, Ibaka's movements are too big, and both of them look scary when they fall.

The Warriors team doctor was very responsible, and immediately after the game, he took the two to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.

The results of the examination put everyone at ease, and the two were very healthy and had nothing to do.

When the Warriors officially announced the news, all the Warriors fans cheered.

Only some Thunder fans are not happy in their hearts.

Two days later, the G4 of the Western Finals began.

In this game, the whole Thunder team exploded.

Even Wei Shao can do anything.

In the first quarter, Durant scored 13 points, and Wei Shao scored 15 points, which was simply jaw-dropping.

Wei Shao made 3 of 3 three-pointers and was unstoppable.

Today's game is destined to belong to Wei Shao.

The Warriors players all smiled wryly, no way.

All kinds of substitutions to defend against the lack of power are useless.

Originally, he was strong when he broke through, and his strategy to defend him was to prevent breakthroughs and not shoots.

But his projection today was too accurate, so he couldn't defend it.

Wei Shao is also very excited today, relying on his own efforts to drive the passion of the Thunder players and fans.

The power of the Devils' home court is on display, and the Warriors players are playing more and more awkwardly.

At the end of the first quarter, the Thunder led by 8 points.

Although in the second quarter of the game, the bench chased a few points, but Wei Shao and Harden, after Durant came on the court, once again dominated the game.

By halftime, the Thunder had a 14-point lead.
