Chapter 361: Lack of helpers? Ask for help from the sidelines!

After the start of G1 of the finals, the game was not as everyone expected - the bulls, who were waiting for work, suppressed the tired thunder as soon as they came up, and then marched forward.

In fact, the Bulls may have taken a break because they hadn't played for more than a week and relied on in-team training games to maintain their condition.

In the first half of the first quarter, the Bulls took seven shots from the outside, and only Doane and Curry each hit a three-pointer.

George, who was originally able to shoot 2.6 three-pointers per game, now missed 2 three-pointers as soon as he came up.

Fortunately, the Thunder players have indeed just finished the tiebreaker, and their physical condition has not fully recovered, and their performance is also very bad.

The Bulls relied on the front line as the king, defended toughly, played steadily, practiced with the game, and slowly found their feelings in the second quarter of the game.

Butler, who came off the bench, even relied on switching offense and making fouls to score 10 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, helping the Bulls quickly pull away the difference.

And Doon also relied on the low post to attack the Thunder's inside line, scoring 9 points in a single quarter, and 17 points at the end of the first half.

45-55, relying on a strong offensive in the second quarter, the Bulls finally entered the second half with a 10-point lead.

The game soon entered the third quarter, and the Bulls had just started to stretch the difference to 18 points, and the game was unexpected.

However, the accident did not happen on the Bulls' side, but Wei Shao, one of the two core players of the Thunder, was too tired to play and had leg cramps, and had to return to the player tunnel to check.

The Thunder players were already playing very tired, and now that this kind of thing has happened, they are naturally not in much of the mood to play.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 64-86, and the Bulls had built a 22-point lead.

In this case, Thunder head coach Scott Brooks was also very simple, took the initiative to abandon his son and admit defeat, and sent an all-bench lineup at the beginning of the fourth quarter and chose to give up the game.

Seeing this, Bulls head coach Scott Skels did not fall into the trap, but also replaced the bench, and even Harden, who was still hidden, got playing time.

In other words, both sides are pure bench lineups, and the Bulls play much stronger.

In the end, the Bulls ravaged the Thunder with a huge advantage of 36 points.

Because G1 won the finals so easily, Dune, who clocked in the third quarter, could only speak formulaically in an interview after the game, and then prayed a little for Wei Shao, hoping that Wei Shao would not have any major problems.

Otherwise, in the future, if there is a little black man who hacks him, he may take the opportunity to spread rumors that Doon needs his teammates to win the championship.

Perhaps it was Doon's prayer that played a small role.

The day after the end of G1 in the finals, the Thunder team revealed to the public in advance that after a comprehensive physical examination, Wei Shao's hamstring did not have structural damage.

For Wei Shao himself, there are some uncomfortable symptoms such as sore hamstrings temporarily, but it does not affect exercise.

This means that Wei Shao is not unable to continue to participate in the next competitions.

Of course, for the sake of Wei Shao's health and career, the Thunder temporarily put Wei Shao on the daily watch list.

Whether Wei Shao can play successfully in the next finals G2 depends on the follow-up physical examination report and Wei Shao's own wishes.

The news of Wei Shao's foot cramps passed quickly, and the time came to June 9 in a blink of an eye, and it was still the United Center, and the finals G2 started again.

Perhaps the impact of the hamstrings is still there, and Willis didn't get a minute of playing time in tonight's game.

After all, the Thunder lacks a leading player, and it is also a powerful player with explosive athleticism and full of fighting spirit.

Even if Wei Shao's scoring efficiency is not high, he does have a full score in other aspects, and as a point guard, he can connect the team and help his interior teammates score better.

Now that Wei Shao is gone, no one in the Thunder can control the ball, and the problem of organization has been exposed all of a sudden.

Durant, as the big leader of the team, still has some responsibilities, Durant was behind in the first two quarters, and when the score was about to be pulled away, he relied on a stand-up stick to bite the score.

However, Durant is not good at organization, and he doesn't know how to lead the team to win, and now he can only ensure his own scoring efficiency.

And the other role players are like headless flies, and they don't know how to play all of a sudden.

Durant was in a hurry, scoring 41 points in the game, but it still didn't help.

In the end, the Thunder lost to the Bulls by 14 points, and thus achieved two consecutive defeats on the road.

After playing Finals G2, Durant, who was interviewed after the game, was obviously a little frustrated.

Usually hearing reporters ask some sharp questions, Durant will spray back mercilessly, sometimes he can't think of any words for a while, and he will be angry after going back, and then silently open one trumpet after another, and find some venues in private.

But this time, Durant just shook his head in frustration, or stopped talking, and then remained silent.

Obviously, Wei Shao's injury and the team's unfavorable record have hit Durant no small.

But after returning to the hotel, Durant did not sit back as everyone imagined.

"Hey, Kobe, I need your help.

My team is in trouble, I can't use my skills to lead my team to win.

And, I want to know how to defeat that guy from Doon!

He was like a mountain in front of me, and I tried to conquer him, but I could not get over him.

Kobe, do you have any good advice? ”

Durant asked management for his phone back, and then called Kobe, who was recovering from an injury at home due to a torn Achilles tendon.

Although Durant's idol is Maddy, Maddie does not have a championship and cannot give Durant the help he wants.

Kobe Bryant is different, even if he is not all the boss champions, but the championship ring is worn on a whole hand, which also makes Durant envious.

Once upon a time, when Durant couldn't sleep at three or four in the morning, he called Kobe Bryant to ask for advice on offensive skills.

Kobe Bryant gave a good answer, and even said that Durant is welcome to continue to come to him for advice in the future.

This time, Durant is really out of line, but he really wants to win and win the championship, so he will reveal his ambitions and secrets to Kobe.

However, Kobe's next answer was still unexpected by Durant.

"I'm sorry KD, I'm just like you, we have the same experience and thoughts.

I can only tell you how to get stronger, but I can't beat Doon in the finals just yet.

I don't have that experience, so I can't help you.

I can only encourage you that you are younger and more gifted than me.

I think you have what it takes to defeat Doon!

As long as you believe in it, as long as you do everything on the court, your heart will respond to you, basketball does not lie! ”

After Kobe Bryant replied seriously, Durant realized that this time he was really a little sick and rushed to the hospital.

Even though Kobe Bryant has the same number of championship rings as Doon, Kobe still loses badly in terms of game statistics against Doon.

In a way, Bryant is Doon's number one underdog.

And he, Durant, is very likely to follow in Kobe's footsteps and lose to Doane in the Finals again and again.

"Am I going to be like Kobe?

It won't be until the Bulls rebuild that I have a chance to win my championship and be the leader of the league for a year or two?

No, Kobe Bryant also said that I am more talented than him, and I have the possibility ...... defeat Doon" (end of chapter)
