Pause. Westbrook and Durant played pick and roll. Tang Wenlong and Iguodala took turns defending Iguodala and Durant Tang Wenlong defending Westbrook.

"What’s the difference between this block and no block?" Westbrook spoke out in his heart about the outside defense of the 76ers. He has never played such an uncomfortable game. Even if Iguodala is a person, even if Tang Wenlong is Lori, he is also very fierce in defense. He is not afraid of physical confrontation, not to mention cooperative defense. If he gets a score faster, he may make a mistake and make himself timid.
I made a bold move, swayed casually for two times, and then dribbled to the right in a big way.
Tang Wenlong stepped back and made a small jump, then he easily looked at Westbrook and saw that Tang Wenlong had pulled a little distance, and then he simply took a jumper in a high position!
"whoosh!"
When Tang Wenlong finished judging, the take-off interfered with the long arm holding the cover high as if it could cover all Westbrook’s shots.
Westbrook couldn’t help but raise the radian in a panic.
The basketball hit the front of the basket and flicked a rebound. Gasol took off and collected the rebound.
I didn’t expect the thunder to pause and still not score. The audience couldn’t shout come on. This situation is too bad for the thunder. It has already taken root in the tactical level, but it doesn’t even feel.
On the contrary, Gasol’s basket caused Perkins to foul after the 76ers attacked Tang Wenlong’s dunk this time.
Two free throws and one penalty, 76 ers lead Thunder by 7 points 9-2.
In this round, Thunder finally broke the goal drought. Westbrook broke through the road and scored a goal for Bacai Baka. David West hit a near-excellent defense and the distance was 9-4.
The fans cheered again.
The fans are always the most enthusiastic. Even if the home team plays like a box of chocolates, they will still give their hands and encouragement as soon as they see a goal or something beneficial to the home team.
Then the 76 ers missed Durant’s shot, causing Tang Wenlong’s thugs to foul and take the free throw line to punish two goals. Thunder chased the score to 9-6.
David West hit 11-6.
Durant gave the ball to Sa Flosa, who made his second shot in the first quarter and hit an 11-9 three-pointer
In this way, the pressure bureau will slowly find its state after resisting the pressure. The difference between the two teams is in a steady trend and almost tied recently.
Chapter two hundred and sixty-four Thunder dilemma
Harden’s condition is surprisingly poor, especially after entering the finals.
It is reasonable to say that the defensive center of gravity of the 76ers is mostly in Durant, and the other part is in Westbrook. Harden’s defensive pressure should be relatively small, but after entering the finals, there is no super sixth man style when playing Spurs.
After the abolition of this sharp knife, the overall strength of the Thunder will drop instantly. If the Thunder is not perfect as far as the array is concerned.
The biggest problem of Thunder is that there is no low-post attack in positional warfare, just like the 76 ers last year. One line has two blue-collar workers, one is embarrassed by feeding the ball, and the other is at best able to put a basket, grab a second rebound at most and then play a board at close range. In terms of Westbrook or Durant, they are all that kind of face-box attack madman. There is no strength in low-post attack.
Of course, Thunder is a modernist team, and it can be in the top five of the league without relying on low posts.
More than the whole atmosphere of the league, there are more and more breakthroughs in basket attack and three-pointer distance, and the team gradually withdraws from the tactical core position.
Unfortunately, Westbrook and Durant are second to none in the top line protection ability of the 76ers’ perimeter defense league. They had expected Harden to sleepwalk all the time in the first two games. Even today, Harden didn’t end up with the enemy at all.
In the first quarter, there were two mistakes in three shots in five minutes, and I was repeatedly given away by Tang Wenlong. My eyes were wide and round. What people think is the basket?
The 76ers led again, 31 to 23, ending the first quarter.
Tang Wenlong breathed a sigh of relief and soaked his black jersey with sweat. "This thunder home is really hot. Is it broken?"
"Who knows? Maybe it’s a thunder tactic." Iguodala maliciously thought that the energy arena was so hot today that it was like a big steamer.
"It’s normal that more than 20,000 people breathe and discharge carbon dioxide at the scene of Gaojia when the temperature in Oklahoma comes today." Whiteside explained it to Thunder, which sounds quite reasonable.
Tang Wenlong gave him a surprised look and raised his eyebrows. "Hassan, you still pay attention to the weather. How can the young man be like an old man?"
"Note how the weather is an old man. My base will take a look at the weather forecast every day when I get up." Whiteside no, he thinks it’s just that he loves life.
"All right," Tang Wenlong rolled his eyes.
Fortunately, a worker handed clean white towels at this time. Tang Wenlong Ma took it and wiped his slippery neck and cheeks. He really wanted to take a cold bath at this time.
The heat is mutual, because the players on both sides are constantly sweating on the floor, and the floor of the stadium has become a little slippery in some places.
The horses of both teams in the stadium were troubled. First, Louis broke through and slid directly to the basketball and gave it to "old fish" Schell. Then he stayed on the scene to lead the team to play the game. When Westbrook broke through, he and Butler physically confronted each other and slid to the floor like a gourd. The basketball rolled off the ground and Ibaka flew to grab the ball and slipped off the sideline directly.
Coincidentally, it just slipped into the bench and sat in front of Tang Wenlong like a gift from a courtier.
Tang Wenlong blinked, clamped her mouth and couldn’t laugh.
Ibaka blushed before his teammates came to help him, and immediately got up from the ground in embarrassment and returned the ball to the 76 ers.
