Chapter 457
In the Thunder's home team locker room, the atmosphere was dull, as if they were already 30 points behind.They are full of despair.
"In the second half, try to give the ball to Russell to play!" Scott Brooks doesn't have many coaching methods. Except for the clean axes that have been cracked by the Clippers, he has no way to make the Thunder In the stalemate, it is nothing more than Kevin Durant's singles, Russell Westbrook's singles, in addition to this, Kevin Martin is added at most.
Kevin Durant raised his head and wanted to say something, but he still kept his mouth shut. His performance in the second quarter left him speechless. Now is the playoffs. Will let him try it unconditionally.
The Thunder changed back to the big lineup, but the Clippers did not return it. Brad Stevens still wants to try the strength of this small lineup. To be honest, for Jordan and Anthony David The strength of the two inside players in the inside defense makes all the other teams in the league very salivating, so this driver, the Clippers, has not tried many small lineups, and now leads the Thunder 2:0, and the small lineup is in a state of And so good, which makes him have to use this lineup.
It's just that in the second half, Russell Westbrook's impact was fully revealed at the beginning, and first of all came from Russell Westbrook's impact on the basket.
Still facing the offense launched by Chris Paul, use his impact to make Chris Paul's defense back again and again. Although Chris Paul is not tall, his strength is absolutely outstanding, otherwise In the case of extreme disadvantages in height and physical confrontation.No matter how good his defensive awareness is, no matter how many small moves he has, it is difficult to become an excellent defensive player.
But this time, he made up his mind to forcefully try to get stuck in this position, but was directly knocked away by Russell Westbrook at the moment of short contact, and Anthony Davis on the inside at this time Still standing on the other side, Serge Ibaka was firmly stuck behind him, while Anson was restrained by the outside line. More importantly, they didn't expect Chris Paul to be pushed away in one step. ?
In the next round, which point guard still attacked, Chris Paul was once again broken through from the left, and it can be seen that the knee injury still had a very obvious impact on Chris Paul's speed.
This time, An Sheng, as the fourth position, was indeed prepared, but he didn't take Russell Westbrook too seriously. The position where he took off the ball was relatively far from the basket. In addition, Chris · Paul's interference, his shot position should be very uncomfortable.
But just because of this underestimation, Russell Westbrook, a guy with a definitely buggy body, abruptly jumped more than ten centimeters in the air, and then completed the layup dangerously and dangerously.
Go-ahead, scoring four points in a row to help the Thunder complete the go-ahead.Especially the splendor of the second goal is definitely one of the top ten in the series. He is facing the two core defenses of the Clippers. Anson's defense must be familiar to Thunder fans and cannot be more familiar. Their core was beaten into silence after a game, and their faces were black and blue. It can be said that it was all due to that perverted defense.
This continuous attack made the Thunder fans very excited. They were cheering for their team loudly, and Russell Westbrook has become the new darling of the Thunder team at least today. , at least tonight, is the case.
Hearing the whole team chanting his name, Russell Westbrook was also very excited and ran to the sidelines to give the fans a high-five to celebrate. For example, Russell Westbrook is very unrestrained and passionate. He is the one who should be the boss of the Thunder when he is only talking about his personality. One aspect is better than Russell Westbrook.
It's just that he was targeted by Anson in this series, so now Russell Westbrook has become a more important person for the Thunder.But compared to this, Kevin Durant cares more about winning. He has long put aside the contention with Anson, and he also hugged Russell Westbrook to celebrate this time overtake.
Three possessions later, Russell Westbrook faced Anson's defense after the pick-and-roll. He directly ignored Kevin Durant, who had the opportunity to single Chris Paul, and directly against Anson's defense. Hit a super long three-pointer half a step away from the three-point line!
"Hey hey! Don't, don't shoot! Fuck! Good shot!"
The Thunder's home commentator on the side couldn't help but swear directly. When he saw Russell Westbrook's three-pointer just now, his heart was desperate. It's very simple. Russell Westbrook Sbrook's three-point shooting rate is not very good, and he has a bad problem of falling in love with his head. Although from these two games, this bad problem is more manifested in Kevin Durant, but after all Sal Westbrook has too many criminal records.
But he also seems to have forgotten that Russell Westbrook is a player who is more passionate and smoother, and his feeling and touch are also better, which is very similar to An Sheng.
Sometimes, An Sheng was able to shoot 9 of 7 three-pointers and 11 of 8 three-pointers in the Yichang game. Often the game was very intense, and An Sheng's obsession and attitude were completely different, but in some When he was leading by a big score, Anson's three-point shooting percentage was only 4 of 1 shots, 5 of 1 shots, and 6 of 2 shots.This is why his three-point shooting percentage can't reach the top stage of more than 40%.
But in this game, it was Russell Westbrook who descended from the gods. Under the cheers at home and the growing confidence, the entire Clippers had nothing to do with him, scoring 27 of 18 of 45 shots. After leading the Thunder to win this victory under such a difficult situation, even An Sheng shook his head helplessly at Brad Stevens, indicating that he had no choice at all.
