In the first quarter, the battle between Lu Yao and Curry delighted the fans at the scene!
There is no sloppy duel, and every ball has a corresponding response. Perhaps this is the charm that the NBA brings to people.
In the CCTV live broadcast room, Yang Yi and Yu Jia were not stingy with their praises and exaggerated.
"Lu Yao and Curry were really hot tonight. Not only did they each score 15+ points in a single quarter, but they even had a 100% shooting rate. It was simply terrifying!"
"But, tonight, the MVP list is about to be announced. It happens that these two people are strong contenders for the top spot. We meet head-on today. How can we do it without using some strength?"
It was the break time, and the camera of the live broadcast room was directed towards the audience.
And two people appeared in the public eye.
They are Tim Duncan and Black Mamba Kobe Bryant. These two people happened to have no game tonight and came to the Energy Center to watch the Thunder against the Spurs.
At this moment, they were chatting and having fun. Duncan noticed their two faces appeared on the big screen and poked Kobe with a smile.
Kobe noticed the big screen, smiled and waved to the audience.
At the same time, soon, the introduction of the two people appeared on the big screen.
Soon, the broadcast camera turned elsewhere.
These two men won seven championship trophies and three MVP trophies in the 2000s!
The moment they appeared, they naturally aroused cheers from the audience.
And soon, the broadcast camera turned elsewhere.
Kobe and Duncan chatted again.
"Bryant, who do you think will win the MVP award tonight between Curry and Lu?"
Kobe smiled and then responded: "There is no doubt, Lu, I have watched many videos of his games, and what Lu has shown now is less than half of his true strength."
When Duncan heard this, he felt a little curious and said, "Really? When I faced him, I felt that he had indeed restrained himself a little, but I don't know how much."
"However, such a dominant rookie is still me more than ten years ago!"
Listening to Duncan's boast, Kobe laughed loudly and said, "You are right. For me, Lu Yao has become my strong rival, but this opportunity to compete was taken away by you first."
The two superstars who were once in the alliance are now chatting happily.
…
Soon, the second quarter started.
Since the Warriors' bench is generally stronger than the Thunder's bench, Donovan left Durant on the court to lead the team.
Durant's ability can still be trusted.
Although the Warriors still took a small lead, Durant led the Thunder to bite hard and did not let the score expand to 5 points or more. It was a stalemate for about half a quarter.
With 5 minutes left in the second quarter, the Warriors temporarily led the Thunder by 3 points, with the score at 43:46.
Cole handed over the first timeout of this quarter to give the players some breathing room, and at the same time replaced the starter who had rested for half a quarter.
At the same time, the Thunder replaced Durant, Lu Yao and Westbrook went into battle again, and Adams took Durant's place.
The combination of Lu Yao and Westbrook has a strong inside impact, so the two of them received special care from the Warriors as soon as they came on the court.
Facing the double team, Lu Yao didn't panic at all. He made a small reverse run, used his body advantage to directly push away Green and Iguodala, and ran towards the flank.
At this moment, Robertson, who was holding the ball, saw Lu Yao waving, and with quick eyes and quick hands, he passed the ball directly to Lu Yao.
Lu Yao caught the ball on the wing and faced Bogut's defense inside without panic at all, constantly testing Bogut with triple threats.
Lu Yao's height is even a little taller than Bogut, but in front of Lu Yao, Bogut looks like the bulky center being played.
Suddenly, Lu Yao turned around and passed Bogut directly. Bogut was left stunned on the spot, rushed into the paint, and jumped up from the bottom of the basket!
A slam dunk with exploding hands, slamming the ball directly into the basket.
This goal directly made the fans in the entire Energy Center excited. The fans raised their hands and shouted Lu Yao's name!
"Lu! Lu! Lu!"
Lu Yao's name resounds throughout the energy center, and tonight, he will definitely be the only focus.
The Warriors changed possession of the ball quickly. Green dealt the card from the bottom line and passed the ball directly to Thompson standing in the center line.
After Thompson received the ball, without thinking, he passed it directly to Curry who had already rushed to the three-point line.
After Curry received the ball, he raised the knife with his hand and hit a three-pointer into the net!
45:49! The Warriors lead by 4 points!
But here in the Thunder, they are also doing their part. The role of serving from the baseline has been replaced by Westbrook. From the looks of it, they are going to play a big game.
Looking at Lu Yao again, he had already rushed to the frontcourt and waved to Westbrook.
What you want to do is naturally self-evident.
The Warriors players reacted, and Iguodala rushed forward to help defend, but Westbrook didn't want to give him this opportunity.
Westbrook jumped on the spot a few times to get a feel for it, and then made a long pass from the quarterback directly from the bottom line of the backcourt to the frontcourt.
At first glance, the height seemed a bit high, and the audience felt a little chilled.
If this continues, Lu Yao will definitely not be able to catch it. After all, it is so high...
But the next second, they were stunned.
Lu Yao jumped high on the spot and stretched out his hand to stop the ball in the air.
This height is even comparable to James, Howard and others.
What was even more unexpected was that he actually stopped the ball!
This goal not only blinded the audience, but also Kobe Duncan in the audience, Cole Donovan on the sidelines, and even Kenny Smith and Barkley in the commentary box were silent.
"What? Jump so high."
Jinzhou Raven had paused at this moment, looking at Lu Yao who seemed to be flying, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
That's right, Lu Yao is flying like Superman now!
Lu Yao directly put the ball in his arms, glanced at the Warriors players who had stopped behind him, smiled slightly, and then rushed towards the basket.
Immediately, Lu Yao dunked the ball directly into the basket with one hand!
47:49, Lu Yao helped the Thunder get the score back to only two points.
In the commentary box, Kenny Smith, who had always been calm, now had his mouth wide open and his eyes widened, completely disbelieving the admiration in front of him.
"I wonder, what happened? Could it be that there is a monster out there? He can stop the ball at such a height. Now Lu Yao is really reaching for the stars and the moon. He is omnipotent!"
Buckley also swallowed and rubbed his eyes.
"It's too mysterious! Is this a height that humans can touch?"
