Thunder offense.
Lu Yao broke through and passed the ball to Waiters on the right.
Waiters made a three-pointer, boom!
Ejected from the basket.
Green protected the rebound and passed a long pass to Iguodala.
The Warriors used five small lineups, and they were really fast.
Because Lu Yao broke through very deep, he could not return to defense in time. Although Ibaka tried hard to catch up, he was still a little slow.
Iguodala dunked on a fast break and scored two points.
In this case, the Warriors' lead will be reduced to 3 points.
The situation is not good!
The faces of Thunder fans changed, and they were no longer as excited as before.
In the fourth quarter, the Warriors began to exert their strength. Can the Thunder still withstand it?
Barkley unconsciously put himself on the Thunder's side, and said a little worriedly: "It seems that the Thunder will not be able to do without Dewey. The lineup is not deep enough."
O'Neal did not refute, and nodded: "Lu Yao has played at a very high level, but the Thunder are still far behind overall."
Ken Smith believes that the Warriors have a good chance of winning and said: "If Lu Yao can't perform exceptionally, the Warriors will definitely win today."
Ken Smith is a very stable person. Unlike Barkley and O'Neal, he likes to talk loudly and create programs for effect.
As long as he reaches a conclusion, it means that he is really confident.
Waiters was very upset and took the initiative to walk up to Lu Yao, apologize in a low voice, and put the blame on himself.
Lu Yao hugged Waiters' neck and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? Isn't this normal? Who can hit 100%!"
"Next time if you continue, I will pass the ball to you!"
Lu Yao's words warmed Waiters's heart. He nodded vigorously and cheered up again.
This is the role of a team leader. If he blames his teammates, it will make them more nervous.
Thunder offense.
Lu Yao held the ball at the top of the arc, and after attracting double-teams, he saw Waiters open.
He passed it to Waiters without hesitation.
The Warriors' defensive players were stunned. Waiters missed a shot just now. According to the unspoken rules of the court, he should not be given another shot next time.
Because he is not a core player and does not have the qualifications!
However, Lu Yao actually passed the ball to him again. This was not according to the routine!
Is a role player worthy of so many shots?
Waiters was also very moved. After catching the ball, his mentality was very stable, because he knew that even if he missed the shot, Lu Yao and his teammates would not blame him!
So Waiters took a calm three-point shot...
By the time the Warriors defender pounced, it was already too late.
Uh-huh!
Waiters' shooting was not bad to begin with, but now his mentality is calm and he can hit accurately!
Thunder fans cheered excitedly.
In fact, when Lu Yao passed the ball to him just now, some fans were already complaining.
They think Lu Yao should not pass to Waiters again, this guy is too tough!
However, Waiters slapped them in the face firmly, and this three-pointer made the two teams tie the score again!
And Lu Yao's work was not in vain, he got one more assist.
After Waiters scored, he beat his chest in excitement and roared. Then he was the first to rush towards Lu Yao, and the two celebrated by bumping chests.
He was very grateful to Lu Yao for the encouragement and trust he gave him.
Thunder fans are also convinced. It seems that Lu Yao's trust has been rewarded.
The Warriors players were confused by Lu Yao's style of play.
Cole folded his arms on the sidelines and frowned slightly. He stared at Lu Yao in a daze.
This rookie is indeed different, too mature.
If the Warriors lose to this rookie today, it will be really ridiculous!
Fortunately, it is now a draw, and there is a chance for both sides.
It depends on who can grasp it.
Kerr yelled at the Warriors players: "Give the ball to Curry! Everyone else needs to cover!"
When the Warriors reached a critical moment, Cole did not dare to pass and cut, and immediately handed the ball to Curry.
Curry held the ball past half-court, called for a screen, then stepped back and shot a super long three-pointer!
The Warriors no longer need any tactics, just throw them to the Splash Brothers.
Uh-huh!
How outrageous!
The Warriors took another three-point lead.
Lu Yao knows that although passing is important, at the critical moment of the fourth quarter, the team needs its star to step up!
Thunder offense.
This time Lu Yao did not hold the ball, but ran to the left sideline with his hands on his knees, as if he did not want to participate in the attack.
Waiters held the ball past halftime. Seeing Green and Iguodala guarding Lu Yao, he had no intention of asking for the ball and planned to break through on his own.
But Lu Yao suddenly raised his right hand and made a gesture, and Waiters understood immediately.
Waiters accelerated and headed towards the penalty area.
Because his breakthrough scoring ability is also good, the Warriors' defense is very tight, and Bogut blocks in front of him.
But Waiters did not force a breakthrough. He circled the penalty area and went out again.
At this moment, Ibaka ran towards Lu Yao.
Green and Iguodala hurriedly pressed Lu Yao close, but Ibaka took a position early and blocked Iguodala.
Lu Yao changed direction, threw Green away, and headed towards the baseline.
Curry also has a high golf quotient. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly went to the bottom line to intercept Lu Yao.
But Lu Yao was much taller than him. After Waiters passed the ball, Lu Yao took three steps to the basket.
Curry had no choice but to give up and watched helplessly as Lu Yao caught the ball, went to the basket and dunked, scoring two more points!
Lu Yao takes action!
Although it was not a three-pointer and the Thunder was still 1 point behind, Lu Yao responded strongly and the Thunder's morale was greatly boosted!
In the next few rounds, Curry basically took on the heavy responsibility of the Warriors' engine. Green no longer held the ball and concentrated on defense and screening.
As for the Thunder, Lu Yao switches freely between holding the ball and without the ball, and plays very smoothly.
Because the Warriors shot more three-pointers, the score has always been ahead, but the Thunder can always respond, so the point difference is not very big.
With 1 minute and 33 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the score reached 112:110, and the Warriors led by 2 points.
The situation is critical, and it's the Warriors' offensive round.
If the Warriors score again, the point difference will widen and time will become less and less.
The Thunder fans at the scene were no longer calm. Their faces showed panic expressions. Even some timid girls did not dare to look at it and covered their faces with their hands.
The Warriors attacked, and Curry once again advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.
Robertson pressed closely, but Green stepped forward and blocked Carrots.
Curry took the opportunity to open it up and wanted to throw a three-pointer.
But Lu Yao directed Waiters to quickly block Curry.
Curry rushed left and right, but with Lu Yao's defense, Curry could never find room to take action.
This is a natural height disadvantage, which makes Curry's shots very difficult.
But with Curry's height disadvantage, it is also amazing to be able to achieve such high achievements in another parallel world!
There were 7 seconds left in the attack time, and Curry saw Thompson out of the corner of his eye.
