“Finally, finally the Thunder took the lead in making substitution adjustments!
Good guy, the Thunder have a young and talented team sitting on the bench. It is a crime to let anyone sit on the bench.
Now there are two people sitting on the Thunder team, which is simply an endless journey!
Su Bei was substituted, and the others remained unchanged..."
The Lakers are experiencing the pain of an aging lineup. They don't have the luxury of the Thunder. Kobe continues to stay off the court, and his good skills have to be used on the edge.
However, Artest played for too long and had to be replaced to take a breather. Sessions, who was beaten in the first quarter, was replaced.
You asked Sir, did you make a mistake?
Sessions is of no use, so why not deliver it?
Jackson had no choice. He also wanted to be a good person and replace himself with competitive players.
But on the bench sat the 32-year-old veteran Troy Murphy, who was picked up, and Josh McRoberts, who was drafted in the second round in 2007 and had little ability.
By the way, there are also a few new players, Devin Banks, the second-round pick in 2010, and two second-round picks in 2011, one is Darius Morris, the other is Andrew Goodlock...
On this card, if you don’t play Sessions, the only one you can play, who will you play?
The Lakers' bench strength is only strong in terms of reputation, but the strength is really not enough.
Compared with the Thunder, it is really difficult!
Sefolosha, who won the All-Defensive Second Team, is young and strong, has no injuries or illnesses, but he didn't get a chance to play.
Together with Durant, Yin Baka and Perkins, a whole lineup that can touch the Western Conference floor is left to eat dust on the bench. I ask you, do you still have the magic?
Are there any laws?
On the field, the game continues.
Lakers offensive possession.
“The Thunder continued to shrink, and Blake lobbed the ball to Gasol and immediately set up a double attack.
The ball was distributed, but Blake did not shoot. He continued to lob the ball to Odom, who was also flanked...
There is no choice, Matt Barnes is left open, the Lakers have no attacking ability on the outside, and the shots are not considered alive, the Thunder will shrink and protect their biggest flaw, the basket, which makes sense... "
Bang-dang——!
Seeing no time, Blake attempted a three-point jumper.
As a result, the rebound missed the target.
If you try, you will die. Lu Xun’s words still make sense!
"The Thunder got the rebound and immediately rushed to counterattack. Seeing that Blake couldn't withstand it, he could only use a foul to interrupt the Thunder's counterattack...
In the positional battle, Westbrook continued to act recklessly when taking the ball. After being flanked, he immediately distributed the ball.
Harden continued to rush with the ball, passed Blake, and went all the way to the bottom. Then, he made a European step for a layup, carrying Gasol's body, and shot the basketball..."
Peng——!
Swish——!
After the basketball hit the board, he got into the basket.
Harden scored two points!
“The referee relented on this ball, and this ball could have been called 2+1!
Harden's talent is top-notch, but it's a pity that he didn't make a name for himself and didn't have a star whistle.
In the intensity of the playoffs, there is no whistle, which is normal..."
"Hey, the Lakers have also made adjustments. They put Kobe back on the court and replaced Blake. Now they are 13 points behind. It's really time to fight..."
Billups was guarding Kobe, Westbrook was pressing Sessions, and it was a problem for Kobe to catch the basketball!
Fighting for physical energy consumption, the Thunder have enough ammunition and are not afraid of consumption.
“The basketball was lobbed to Gasol, and then Sessions cut inside and started a pick-and-roll with Gasol.
Huh?
What the hell?
Harden suddenly flanked Gasol with Muhammad. Under the physical confrontation, Gasol showed his flaws. His physical fitness was a little bit unable to keep up, and he made mistakes.
The basketball was stolen by Harden, and he immediately rushed up with the ball to counterattack. He rushed to the frontcourt and saw that only the basket was left..."

Bang-dang——!
With an ordinary dunk, Harden integrated offense and defense and scored two points on the counterattack, widening the point difference between the two sides to 15 points.
"The Lakers are going to collapse, the talent gap is visible to the naked eye!
However, Billups and Kobe were on their shoulders, and Schenses couldn't even help Kobe with the ball.
The basketball is still in Gasol's hands.
OMG!
Gasol hit Muhammad with his back and turned for a layup. The opportunity came out, but he missed it.
Too soft. Gasol at this time shows that he is still the same weakling as he was in the Grizzlies era..."
In the 11/12 season, Gasol averaged 17.4 points, 10.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game in the regular season, playing the role of a new top four forward and looking like he could replace Webber.
However, in the playoffs, Gasol's statistics dropped to 12.5 points, 9.6 rebounds and 3.7 assists. There are still three good students, student cadres... no, they look like the new top four.
"It was the Thunder's counterattack again, and it was Harden again. He continued to break through with the ball, stepped down and dribbled continuously, and took a European step for a layup. Matt Barnes couldn't keep up with his steps, so he could only move hard and reach out to steal the ball.
Beep——!
When the whistle sounded, Harden's European step didn't stop, he completed a layup and scored.
pretty!
This time 2+1, the Lakers can't escape.
Harden is too strong.
The Thunder put him on the bench during the regular season. This talent pool is simply too foul. What can you use to top it up..."
You can't stand it!
Seeing that there were not many drops in Gasol's body, Phil Jackson had no choice but to make a substitution and bring Bynum on.
At the same time, Artest, who had been out of breath for a few minutes, was replaced. It was time to fight.
At this time, in the 6th minute of the second game, Scott Brooks also made adjustments and replaced Durant and Yin Baka on the field.
At this time, the Thunder's lineup became Yin Baka, Collison, Durant, Harden and Westbrook.
Well, the game continued, Harden's free throw was not completed!
Faced with the problem of giving away points, Harden had no problem, and steadily made the free throws, and settled for 3 points.
The point difference between the two sides became 18 points!
Whether it's on the court, the score, or the lineup, the advantage lies with the Thunder.
"Kobe finally, finally got the basketball, and Harden was guarding him.
What the hell?
Kobe's triple threat came out with almost no adjustment. He raised his hand and shot a three-point pull-up jumper..."
Harden had no reaction after finishing, and was still waiting for Kobe to take a test step to test out his talent.
Unexpectedly, Kobe had no martial ethics and just pulled it up and shot. Even if Harden was not careless, with his physical talent, he still couldn't guard him. He could only bet that Kobe's three-point pistol had no bullets.
Swish——!
With the knife in his hand, Kobe's three-point pistol had bullets and accurately scored a three-pointer.
“Too hard!
Kobe, at critical moments, you have to look at Kobe's offensive expression.
This three-pointer came just in time!
If the shot is missed, it will be a fatal blow to the morale of the Lakers.
But that man was Kobe. He didn't let that 'if' appear. He showed the big heart of a superstar and used his three-pointer, which he was not good at, to open a hole.
The point difference has become 15 points. Next, it is time to test the Lakers' defense. With such a point difference behind, offensive firepower alone cannot fill this hole..."
"In the Thunder's offense, Westbrook continued to play music, and then acted as a reckless man, forcing Sessions, he broke in, and then shot, stopping the zombie to make a pull-up jumper...
Swish——!
Also hit!
Westbrook shows confidence!
Neither Sessions nor Blake can withstand his impact, no matter how they play, once the state comes out, they really can't stand it, and the point difference becomes 17 points. Let's see how the Lakers play..."
How else to fight?
I can only fight for three-pointers.
Kobe dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt, faced Harden's block, raised his hand and made an unreasonable three-point pull-up jumper...
Harden still can only listen to the gunshot!
Bang-dang——!
The basket was not used to Kobe. Kobe forced a three-point shot and missed.
"With Su Bei leaving, the Lakers couldn't find a reliable player who could shoot three-pointers, so they had to let Kobe Bryant shoot.
And three-point shooting is not what Kobe is good at. The next game will be dangerous for the Lakers..."
At this time, the Thunder's old habit broke out.
In the end, they were still too young and took a big lead. They thought the situation was settled and started making various waves.
Harden was in good condition, but was pulled out by Kobe one after another. He chose to return it, automatically brought the ball to the frontcourt, then pulled it up and shot...
Bang-dang——!
The rim wasn't used to Harden either. His three-point shot bounced out of the rim.
At this time, the younger version of Harden, without the beard, is not in a stable state and has the attributes of going crazy.
When the state comes, no matter how hard you vote, you will be there.
If there is no status, it is just a question to give points.
The third leader was so wild, Durant had just come back, got the basketball, and tried a three-pointer.
In their view, any three-pointer hit is a heartbreaking blow to the Lakers.
However, the rim still wasn't on the Thunder's side.
Bang-dang——!
Three-point shot, still missed!
"In the Lakers' offense, Kobe no longer bet on his own inability to make three-pointers and used the ball to explore Harden's talent.
He found a flaw, immediately dribbled the ball through, and then aimed at Harden, who was fighting and retreating, and made a pull-up two-point fadeaway jumper..."
Swish——!
With the knife in hand, Kobe made a steady two-pointer.
Use mid-range shots to test Harden's defense.
As a result, Harden still couldn't withstand this test.
As Kobe's offense opened up the situation, the Lakers' interior also had space to attack.
The basketball was passed to Bynum in the low post, then turned around, attacked the basket, and completed a two-handed slam dunk.
The two-point scoring continued, and the Lakers showed a strong point-chasing mode.
At this time, Jackson did not sleep anymore. With a wave of his hand, Gasol replaced the invisible Odom.
Then Gasol came on the court and immediately started a triangle offensive team. Sessions went inside without the ball and hit the Thunder's backdoor. Finally, he got two points.
Seeing the Lakers' offensive momentum, Durant faced Artest's defense in a triple-threat posture. He couldn't find any flaws and was pressed closely. He chose to go up, dribble the ball through, get out of the space, and raise his hand. A three-point pull-up jump shot...
“Keep playing music, keep surfing!
The Thunder's normal operation is to like all kinds of waves when they are ahead.
Bang-dang——!
The basket didn't get used to him, and he still missed the shot..."
Looking back, Bynum received Kobe's pass in the low post and hit Yin Baka with his back, attracting Durant's defense. Then, without any head heat, he went up, distributed the ball, and assisted Artest who came in through the air to complete the pass. Driving to the rim for a layup.
Peng, shua——!
"Fine!
The Lakers' offense found its sense, with full firepower and everyone's strength, it was hard for the Thunder to parry. An 11-4 surge instantly reduced the point difference to 11 points and stopped the game..."
Scott Brook praised the players without saying anything bad.
After all, it is their style to fight blindly.
It doesn't matter if you can't win this time.
Calling a timeout just interrupted the Lakers' state.
At the end of the timeout, Harden and Collison were replaced, and Su Bei and Perkins came on.
"After the game came back, Westbrook broke through with the ball, but the Lakers predicted it in advance. Artest pounced to double attack, and Su Bei was left empty.
Westbrook did not pass the ball, but chose to go up to the man, and faced the intensive defense and forced it..."
Bang-dang——!
There was no suspense, Westbrook's shot missed.
Harden passed by, followed by Durant, who all went undercover.
When you get on the bus, you have to take him, the second brother, with you. Westbrook also has to be undercover for a while to balance it.
"The Thunder's offense suddenly misfired, and then it was the Lakers' opportunity to narrow the score.
The basketball was in Kobe's hands, and Su Bei watched the defense and directly implemented the snake release tactic when faced with three threats.
Kobe did not shoot a three-pointer, but dribbled the ball to break through. After being blocked by Su Bei, he immediately turned around and slapped his butt. Then, he shook his shoulders, turned around, and raised his hand to shoot a two-point fadeaway jumper..."
Su Bei defended to the extreme and reached out to cover Kobe's eyes. However, facing Kobe's picturesque shooting attack mode, he was not much better than Harden and could only continue to listen to the gunshots.
Bang-dang——!
"The iron is strong, Kobe's shooting rhythm is very good, but it's a pity that there is a little bit of luck, and the basketball slips out of the basket.
The Thunder's timeout still had a miraculous effect..."
In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, without any further delay, and passed the ball to Durant.
"It's another close-to-body confrontation, and Durant, who is only good at facing the basket, is in poor three-point shooting form and has no space to break through. He is completely unable to beat Artest, who was once the best defensive player.
The basketball returned to Westbrook's hands, but he continued to forcefully break through Sessions. This was the Lakers' flaw and the Lakers' problem with points.
Kobe helped defend and continued to flank Westbrook.
Huh?
Westbrook continued to press hard, broke through to the end, and pulled the ball for a layup... No, he pulled the pole in the air, attracted the defense, and then distributed the basketball.
In the three-point corner on the right, Su Bei was empty. He caught the ball, raised it, took a look, raised his hand and took a three-point jumper..."
Kobe jumped out, it was already too late!
If you can care about Westbrook, you can't care about Su Bei's three-pointer from the bottom corner.
This is a flaw in the joint defense attack. It would be the same no matter who it is, they can only hear the sound of gunshots.
Swish——!
"Yes!
The Thunder's three-pointer finally came to fruition!
As soon as Su Bei returned to the court, he used a precise three-pointer to give the Lakers' defense a head-on blow.
This three points is not very insulting, but it is extremely harmful!
Westbrook and Su Bei will continue to be two bottles of poison in front of the Lakers. No matter how you choose, the word "death" is always there..."
The score difference became 14 points!
Morale is something you can't touch or see clearly!
With Su Bei's three-pointer, the Lakers' defense had an unsolvable flaw.
The Lakers offense is in a hurry!
Sessions was impatient to play the triangle offensive tactic. He chose to break through with the ball, and then stopped and shot a two-point jumper...
Bang-dang——!
The basketball shot missed.
And this is just the beginning.
Subsequently, Bynum also tried a mid-range shot, but also missed.
Although he shot and grabbed the ball himself, he got back the lost points with a second touch-up.
But the Lakers' offensive momentum suddenly disappeared, and their state was completely weak.
All that's left is scratching outside, and the sound of iron hitting my ears.
The Thunder continued to score points with Westbrook's breakthrough and foul shooting, and Durant's breakthrough and layup.
Buzz—!
At the end of the second quarter, the Thunder beat the Lakers with a score of 31 to 23.
At the end of the first half, the score was 64 to 46. The Thunder entered the locker room to rest with an 18-point lead.
In the second quarter of the game, Westbrook and Su Bei became the most beautiful guys on the court. They made 3 of 5 shots each, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 8 points and 3 assists, 3 of 4 shots each, and 2 of 3 three-pointers. , also scored 8 points.
One inside and one outside, one sudden shot and one shot, complementing each other, making the Lakers' defense lose sight of the other, making it impossible to defend.
