Breakthrough on the left!
Jump horizontally!Find Bradley on the outside line on the right!
Empty seat!
Flank firing!
Go in!
"This tactic is beautiful," David Wesley praised.
There was also applause at the scene, and they sat down slowly. Since seeing the Thunder coached by Presti, they only sat down when they scored goals.
Westbrook holds the ball to the top of the arc, holds the ball on the left,
Hand it over to Ibaka, the low post on the left!
Then turn around and dodge and throw at David West!
Bang Dang, iron!
Whiteside took the rebound and scored Paul George, who was on the right!
Paul George sprints with the ball!
By the time the top of the arc was reached, the Thunder's players had already settled down!
"This speed is really a bunch of monsters," Presti sighed silently. The physical talents of Thunder players can definitely be classified as the most abnormal!
Barkley said happily: "In this game, the Thunder players are very focused. With such a fast return to defense, the Hornets can't push the fast break. It's not easy to score.!"
Barkley just finished speaking,
Paul George shipped to the bottom corner on the right!
Jeremy Lin who jumped up and scored the ball on the left perimeter!
Jeremy Lin held the ball without any hesitation.
Just rush in!
Facing the mountains of Ibaka and Jordan,
Go straight to the layup!
"Haha, Presti's positional tactics are still excellent," David Wesley laughed.
Barkley looked helpless,
On the Thunder side, Westbrook handed the ball to Durant, and Durant entered the paint with Paul George on his back!
Lean on, turn over and lean back!
There are also!
Then the two teams entered the confrontation mode!
Paul George broke through and scored 2+1, Bradley hit a three-pointer again, and the Hornets took the lead!
Immediately afterwards, Westbrook and Durant stood up and scored 5 points from inside and outside. But tonight, Bradley, who had a burst of touch, scored 2 three-pointers in a row and returned the color. The Hornets continued to lead 17-10.
However, Westbrook also hit a three-pointer immediately after that. Jordan scored 6 points in the interior, and the Thunder, which was blooming inside and outside, chased the score to 23.
At the end of this quarter, Paul George, who made a good shot, made another three-pointer and made a counter-attack layup, helping the Hornets take the lead again.
But today's Thunder is very fighting spirit, Westbrook immediately hit 2+1 in return, substitute Harden also made a three-pointer, the Thunder once again overtook.
In the last 34 seconds, Hornets substitute Gordon scored 4 points in a row, helping the team end the first quarter with a 34-32 lead.
"The offensive efficiency of the two teams in the first quarter is too high!" Barkley exclaimed. Seeing such a wonderful game, Barkley temporarily put his unhappy emotions behind him!
"Yeah, it's really exciting." David Wesley stared at the field tightly, not wanting to miss every offensive round,
In the second quarter, the substitutes of the two teams started to attack during the rotation time. Gibson scored 4 points in a row, but Okafor of the Hornets immediately scored 4 points in the interior to retaliate, leading the score alternately.
After that, the Hornets found the outside touch again. Belinelli and Gordon hit three-pointers, leading the Hornets to a 10-2,
After establishing a 46-40 lead, Okafor continued to kill the inside line in the middle of the quarter, and scored 5 points with consecutive shots and penalties, helping the Kings maintain the lead.
The Thunder immediately called a timeout!
"How do I feel that the Thunder coach's tactics are suppressed?" David Wesley said.
"This is not being suppressed, this is being crushed, how can the Hornets have so many vacancies!" Barkley was speechless.
However, after the timeout, Harden then scored a wonderful 3+1, Westbrook made a steal and countered dunks, and the Thunder chased the score to 42-43.
However, as the Hornets changed their tactics and defended toughly, the Thunder suddenly lost their state and scored 4 points with only free throws in nearly 2 minutes;
反之戈登和贾森史密斯则频频反击砍分，率领黄蜂打出一波10-2重新拉开比分。此节最后10秒，戈登补篮强硬打成2+1，并在最后一攻抓住威少的失误反击压哨上篮得手，帮助黄蜂在半场结束以58-46领先12分。
"To be honest, if someone told me before the game that the Hornets would lead the Thunder by 12 points at halftime, I definitely wouldn't believe it," David Wesley said looking at the halftime score.
"If you bet like this with me, I will definitely pick it up again. It's really amazing. Presti can put everyone in the most suitable position and play their best potential." Barkley praised Presti uncharacteristically, but changed the subject: "It's just that Paul's deal is too bad!"
"Haha, I also think there is a problem with that deal, but I suddenly feel that the deal will bring about a qualitative change for the Hornets," David Wesley laughed.
"What a qualitative change, can Paul still be as good as him?" Barkley looked disbelieving.
Just back in the second half, Gordon scored 4 points with free throws. The Hornets continued to feel good. Although Westbrook then hit the penalty area and scored 4 points in a row, Gordon responded with a three-pointer. The Hornets maintained a double-digit lead 77-63.
The Thunder called timeout again!
After a timeout adjustment, Durant scored a three-pointer, but Bradley, who was in hot form in this campaign, immediately responded with a mid-range shot and completed a one-stop layup with steals. The Hornets once took a 1-point lead.
However, the Hornets, who were leading by a large score, made consecutive mistakes. Durant seized the opportunity to hit a three-pointer and completed a 2+1 counterattack. The Thunder narrowed the point difference to 73-83.
Presti had to pause!
Presti looked at the players and said very seriously: "Look around you, there are fans supporting you, everyone will make mistakes, but I don't want to see such low-level mistakes again!"
The players nodded in shame, and the game resumed!
Paul George relied on his personal ability to hit the penalty area frequently and scored 7 points alone, but Westbrook also scored in return. Durant scored a three-pointer and the Thunder were able to bite the score.In the last 2 minutes of this quarter, the Hornets hit the iron continuously and did not score in sports games, while Durant scored 4 points with penalty shots, helping the Thunder narrow the score to 90-97 after the third quarter.
In the final quarter, Whiteside made a tip-up, Bradley hit a three-pointer, and the Hornets regained a 102-point lead 92-10.
After that, the Thunder came on the bench for Livingston and Matthews, but this belongs to the Thunder's third lineup, but it performed miraculously and scored consecutively!
But Gordon immediately rushed to the inside and scored 4 points with penalty shots in return. The Hornets continued to control the situation on the court.
But the impact of the Thunder is still there after all. Westbrook and Durant took turns hitting the basket and scored 6 points, leading the team to narrow the point difference to only 5 points!
Presti immediately called timeout again!
关键时刻，保罗乔治再次站出来里突外投拿下4分，带领黄蜂打出一波6-0、重新以99-88取得两位数领先。
At the end of the game, the Thunder fell into a situation of relying on Westbrook and Durant to chase points in singles, while the Hornets frequently played tacit cooperation. Gordon hit a three-pointer, Whiteside scored 6 points from the inside, and the king, who was blooming inside and outside, maintained a lead of about 10 points!
In the end, the Thunder's superstar singles basketball fell to the Hornets' team basketball again!
