The Thunder bench held their breath!
It seemed that a head-on confrontation was inevitable.
But there is something subtle in Lu Yao's roughness. Just when the two were about to collide, Lu Yao turned around after a gorgeous performance, blowing past Jordan like a strong wind.
"Ouch!"
Jordan was dodged and fell to the ground like a dog.
"Olajuwon-style dance steps, reappear at Staples Center." Yu Jia shouted excitedly.
After getting past the opponent's main inside players, no one can stop Lu Yao anymore.
He suddenly jumped in front of the free throw line and slammed the basketball into the basket with his long arms.
Lu Yao's jumping is not very powerful, but his wingspan means he can do whatever he wants!
"Lu, you are so handsome!" Durant couldn't help but start shouting!
"So beautiful!" Westbrook raised his arms for a moment.
The Thunder bench players and Billy Donovan all stood up at this moment.
Lu Yao's dunk was really a relief. He put out the fire for the arrogant Jordan tonight.
This is a great help to the team's morale.
"beep--"
The Clippers' coaching staff finally couldn't sit still. Although they still had the advantage of leading the score, Lu Yao was now almost amazing!
This Chinese kid was not in the playbook they arranged before the game. It was obvious that his outburst was something the entire Clippers team did not expect.
It is necessary to arrange some targeted tactics for Lu Yao!
Lu Yao moved his shoulders and walked towards the Thunder's bench. His hand was still hot.
"Lu, you really helped the team tonight!" Thunder head coach Billy Donovan praised Lu Yao happily.
"Yes, Lu! He was so strong tonight!" Durant also clapped his hands and applauded.
"Just now? It's just a warm-up, and they haven't even let me sweat yet!" Lu Yao said half-jokingly.
"Really? Lu! Then it's up to you!" Billy Donovan was very happy.
At such critical moments, he likes such confident players.
Billy Donovan was grinning from ear to ear.
He never expected that a player with a ten-day short contract would become the team's trump card.
Back in the game.
The Clippers began to pay attention to their defense against Lu Yao.
But this time, Lu Yao, as a tall center, still stood outside the three-point line and organized the ball.
Little Jordan was a little panicked.
What the hell? Lu Yao's dribbling changes direction as fast as the wind!
But before Jordan could adjust his position, Lu Yao hit a three-point shot with a huge arc!
Seeing that such a tall person could hit such a target with an anti-aircraft gun, Jordan felt chilled for a moment.
Then Lu Yao made another air-cut layup. His total score for this game has reached 16 points!
And the most terrifying thing is that his hit rate remained at 100%!
The morale of the Thunder team has increased, and finally the hands of "Reaper" Durant and Westbrook have also recovered.
There were three and a half minutes left in the fourth quarter.
125:129
The Thunder's lagging deficit was pulled back to only 4 points!
"Lu Yao is unstoppable now, won't the Clippers give him more strength?" Kenny Smith, the TNT commentator on the scene, began to criticize the Clippers' defensive strength.
The Clippers fans present were also on pins and needles at this moment, with thorns in their backs!
If Lu Yao, a young boy, just made a few three-pointers, it would be misleading, but now he is close to scoring 20 points.
Still don't get any restrictions!
The Thunder's bench was also very nervous. They felt the anxious atmosphere on the court close at hand.
"Come on, Lu! At the last moment, your touch must withstand it!" Adams sat on the bench, cheering Lu Yao from the bottom of his heart.
"Who is this kid? Why haven't you heard of it before?" Jordan turned to look at Chris Paul.
"I have no impression. He's probably not this year's rookie." Paul's answer was brief. He really couldn't figure out why a player he had never heard of became famous today.
The Clippers had the ball, Paul's eyes lowered, and he was ready for a life-or-death duel.
After quickly advancing to halftime, Paul once again used a screen to get rid of Westbrook's entanglement.
Before the Thunder could make adjustments, Paul made a direct throw.
This throw is very freehand, and there is no time for preparation.
The score difference returned to 6 points.
"Chris Paul!!!"
The Clippers home DJ, who had been silent for a long time, sounded again.
"Chris is really the point guard god! He is the savior of the Clippers at critical moments. No one has a bigger heart than Chris. He has a spirit of refusing to admit defeat!
This is unmatched by any other player
Thunder want a comeback? The biggest difficulty is...
Chris Paul would not agree! "
The on-site commentator Kenny Smith was very good at stirring up the atmosphere. His hysterical shouting made the audience excited.
But the next second, Lu Yao started it again!
A gust of wind blew toward the Clippers frontcourt.
"Danger!" Kenny Smith couldn't help but exclaimed.
He holds a basketball and runs at high speed like a Hummer.
"Lu Yao fought back. He has never missed a goal in this game!" Kenny Smith said with a trembling voice.
Jordan wanted to react, but it was too late.
Lu Yao rushed outside the three-point line and took the ball without stopping.
A basketball goes into the net like a bullet into the heart of the Staples Center court.
They didn't even have time to celebrate Paul's goal.
Point difference, 3 points!
There's only one ball left!
The entire Staples Center is now as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
During this period, they could almost only watch the score gap being swallowed up step by step, but they could do nothing!
Clippers, again requesting a timeout.
"You are the protagonist tonight!"
Durant was very excited. He excitedly jumped over and collided with Lu Yao in the air.
This was a short pause, and both sides made some adjustments before returning to the court again.
Last less than 1 minute.
Clippers ball.
The initiative now is still in the hands of the Clippers.
The breathing of the entire audience was in rhythm with the frequency of Chris Paul's batting.
Jordan firmly blocked Westbrook, and Paul found a good opportunity to drive straight in.
This time, it was another direct conversation with Lu Yao.
Paul didn't dare to be vague. After pretending to break through, he quickly blasted the ball back and shot the ball in the highest arc possible.
But at the moment when the basketball is released!
Snapped!
Lu Yao raised his arms high, but his fingers still touched the basketball.
The basketball was shot down alive!
"What's this?"
"The point guard god has been blocked?"
"Give up three steps of space and still get blocked... This guy is a beast!"
This block was so scary that Paul didn't even expect it.
Judging from his career experience, no one can complete such a large coverage defense.
Lu Yao's wingspan and movement speed are really rare.
Lu Yao picked up the basketball, looked up at the timer, and ran towards the court at high speed.
A three-point difference, 37 seconds!
The decisive battle begins!
