Chapter 447

In the Western Conference Finals, they did not escape the battle between the first and second places. The Clippers and the Thunder, two teams with 60 wins in the regular season, met in the Western Conference Finals. The Thunder have 3 more days of rest, which is the benefit of ending the series early.

The Clippers were comfortable in Game [-] at the Staples Center, while the Thunder came non-stop after qualifying for the Western Conference Finals at the ATT Center in San Antonio. In Los Angeles, they didn't even go back to Oklahoma. They only had two days off in between. It's not like they just returned to that city and are about to leave.

So at the start of the game, the Thunder couldn't find their shot at the Staples Center. They were so tired that even Iron Man Russell Westbrook took a 2-minute break in the first quarter, and Kevin Durant, the main hero who won the Spurs, was extremely inaccurate.

His physical strength has always been one of his biggest problems. Last year against Biao Ansheng, several times at the last minute of the game, his shooting obviously had problems.And now, this problem appeared at the very beginning.

He met his old opponent, An Sheng, and he wanted to prove himself with goals. Throughout the regular season, the media were discussing what would happen when the Clippers and the Heat faced each other in the finals. No chance of taking the Heat, but no one is talking about the Thunder, no one.

This is a big damage to the confident Kevin Durant. He doesn't care about the comments on the Internet like many top players. On the contrary, he cares a lot. He felt very unhappy not participating in such a discussion, and he had to prove himself in this game.

It is precisely this that makes it difficult for him to play now. Facing An Sheng's defense, he has no way to complete the breakthrough without physical strength. In fact, it may be a better choice to give the ball to Russell Westbrook at the beginning , and in the previous games, the Thunder did this, but now it is Kevin Durant, who is eager to prove himself, and he committed the old problem of his teammates, eager for quick success.

An Sheng's defensive jump shot at the top of the arc was easily interfered with. His slender arms did not have much strength. It was difficult for him to complete such a difficult shot against An Sheng's defense. It was just halfway through the first quarter At the time, a clean air ball was sent out directly!

There were boos everywhere, and the Los Angeles fans at the Staples Center would not let go of any such opportunity. As their most feared opponent, Anson threw an air ball under the defense of Anson, which instantly made them all firmly in their hearts. Put it back firmly in your belly.

The fans were very excited, but An Sheng, who was defending Kevin Durant, had no idea what was going on. He just watched the score lead but didn't use any skills, and he wasn't too tight on the defense. Kevin Durant, the discussion between him and Brad Stevens is to give priority to preventing breakthroughs. In the mid-range position, Kevin Durant's lethality is far greater than his three-pointers, so Anson It would be appropriate to give a little chance first to see how Kevin Durant feels.

An Sheng originally thought that if the ball was not counted, it should be out of the frame at most. He never thought that his defense without the slightest sense of oppression would make Kevin Durant throw an air ball.

"No, Kevin's physical strength has not recovered at all. In the last moment of the sixth game, in order to prevent the Spurs' counterattack, he played almost the entire game!" Scott Brooks shook his head, and he was very concerned about the situation on the field. thorough.

Russell Westbrook, who has better physical strength, ran back and forth in the first quarter and didn't get many opportunities. Kevin Durant also only surrendered 6 of 2 shots and scored 6 points.

The Clippers' ability to win 73 wins is not a good man or woman. Seeing Kevin Durant's performance, Brad Stevens accurately issued a signal to the court, focusing on Kevin Durant. Take advantage of your illness and kill you. This old Chinese saying is perfectly applied to the current Clippers' tactics.

Chris Paul clearly felt the opinion of Brad Stevens. He directly gave the ball to Anson. It is very big, this is the advantage of height and long legs, but An Sheng made two consecutive changes of direction during the march, which made Kevin Durant suffer.

Originally lacking in physical strength, he has already made consecutive mistakes on the offensive end, coupled with An Sheng's skillful change of direction twice, his center of gravity has been completely confused, and the last shamgod pulls the ball again Going to the right became the last straw that crushed Kevin Durant's poor defense. This guy whose center of gravity was too high because of his height above 210cm was directly thrown to the ground after several consecutive center of gravity changes , and then easily rushed inside and gave Jordan an alley-oop dunk.

This time, the boos rang out, and there were so many cheers mixed in. Of course, these cheers were for An Sheng. The 1VS1 sway between the aces was simply too exciting. It's a pity Yes, this is Kevin Durant. His defense has always been bad. If it were LeBron James, it is estimated that the roof of the Staples Center might be directly lifted by the cheers of the fans.

After falling down this time, the Clippers' offense was fully opened, and the Thunder's defense also collapsed at this time. Serge Ibaka, the shot-blocking king, is indeed very strong in defense, but he is not strong enough to be alone Even An Sheng couldn't change his fate against the sky.

第一节，他们就不可避免地以17：31落后了14分之多。而雷霆的17分更多的是依靠着塞尔吉·伊巴卡时灵时不灵的几个钟头再加上萨波·索夫洛萨两个神仙球的三分维持住的，不然可能在第一节的时候就输掉了20分以上。

Kevin Durant angrily threw the towel on the floor when he was off the court. He was more angry with his own performance and angry with his lack of physical strength. In this first quarter, he once again Completely suppressed by An Sheng, An Sheng has scored as many as 12 points on his head, and also has 3 assists.
