“Lakers attack!
Finally, Sessions dropped the ball and cut inside, using Gasol's screen to get rid of Westbrook.
Received a pass from Gasol, cut inside without the ball, hit the Thunder's backdoor, and scored two points..."
Swish——!
Perkins is a meat shield inside. He is too slow and too short. When faced with a fast defender like Sessions, it is really difficult to protect the basket.
4 to 2!
Looking back, Westbrook continued to name Sessions, broke through with the ball, and completed the copying work to the end!
After being flanked, he did not continue to distribute the ball to Perkins or Yin Baka, the old 6 inside players, but handed the damn basketball into the hands of Durant.
After all, Durant is the boss in this Thunder team, so how can he always be a walk-on?
"Durant held the ball in a one-on-one, three-threat test, and checked Artest's back a few times.
Durant stepped back, feinted a shot, and dribbled the ball to the right. Artest caught up with him and immediately changed direction and slapped the basketball back to the right.
One step from the free throw line, he suddenly stopped and pulled up, then raised his hand and shot a two-point pull-up jumper..."
Artest's strength is dominant, and his functional ability has declined seriously with age. It's like being on the street in the early morning. After being passed clean, you can only hear the sound of gunshots.
Swish——!
With the knife in his hand, Durant didn't lose his talent as a scoring champion. He picked off Artest, made a sudden stop, and easily scored two points.
4 to 4!
"The offensive firepower of both sides has gradually opened up the situation, and the hardness has been established. Next, it depends on the endurance of both sides?
The Lakers attacked, and Sessions passed the half court and passed the ball to Kobe.
After a few searches of Jiangsu Province, Kobe couldn't find a way to break through. Kobe immediately picked up the ball, flicked his hands in the air, and hoisted the basketball into the low post on the left. Bynum hit Yin Baka with his back, then turned around to meet the man. And up..."
Bang-dang——!
The basket was not used to Bynum, and the basketball bounced out of the basket.
"Yin Baka's defensive ability is not weak, and Bynum's strong attack is strong.
OMG!
The Lakers grabbed another offensive rebound. Gasol took the ball and had no chance. He immediately passed the ball to Artest who came in through an air cut. He took the ball and beat Durant, and then made a layup..."
Swish——!
Artest made a second follow-up shot and scored two points.
Durant couldn't stand Artest's reckless and pie-eating style.
They don't want to interfere with you, they just use their bodies like bulldozers.
Durant's strength is incomparable.
It's not surprising that he wasn't tough enough and fought hard with a bayonet, but was pushed to the end by Artet.
6 to 4!
Northern Jiangsu continued to play soy sauce on offense.
Anyway, Kobe is not in a hurry, and neither is he.
The Thunder attacked, and Westbrook continued to dribble past Sessions, attracting the defense, and passed the ball behind his back to Durant.
"Then the music was played, and then Artest was singled out. In the matchup just now, it was obvious that Durant had the advantage.
Still a triple threat, he steps forward, puts his feet back and lifts the ball. After mobilizing Artest to rush over to interfere, he immediately changes direction in front of his body, and then dribbles the ball inward to break through...
When Artest slid sideways to catch up, Durant changed direction, and then changed direction, immobilizing Artest's focus and feet, and accelerated to the right...
Hey, Kobe stood up, and as if he had predicted Durant's movements, he flashed to Durant's side, did everything he could, and easily completed the steal.
This is a beautiful defense. After Kobe got the ball, he immediately counterattacked..."
Su Bei followed closely, but it was a pity that Kobe was too strong and steady during the counterattack.
He rushed to the frontcourt, slowed down his pace, and glanced at Su Bei's distance and movements from time to time.
Su Bei didn't dare to make any moves at all, unless he wanted to send Kobe to play 2+1, otherwise he could only watch Kobe go to the basket and complete an easy dunk...
Bang-dang——!
Kobe stole the ball and scored two points in a counterattack.
8 to 4!
“In the game situation, the proactive Lakers have the upper hand now, while the Thunder still can’t compare to the Lakers in terms of tactical execution capabilities.
The only thing that can be targeted is to name Sessions and Westbrook's strong attack.
As soon as Durant finished his swing, he was replaced by Westbrook.
Hey, in addition to Gasol's help in defense, Kobe also rushed over and continued to steal Westbrook. He was too aggressive...
Snapped--!
Kobe was unlucky. Unexpectedly, Westbrook broke through and hit the gun..."
Beep——!
The referee called a foul on Kobe's thug.
Westbrook got two free throw opportunities, and Kobe danced on the tip of a knife defensively, but in the end he suffered a backlash.
Faced with the question of giving away points, Westbrook's shooting is still unreliable.
Bang-dang——!
The first free throw was taken and the iron was sent.
Swish——!
The second free throw was made, 1 of 2, and 1 point was scored.
8 to 5!
After switching offense and defense, Kobe, who got the basketball, finally took action against Su Bei.
After the three threats took a step, dribbled the ball through, and then played from behind, Su Bei could only make use of their tricks.
"Shaking his shoulders, turning around, raising the ball and flicking it, he wanted to point Su Bei to start, but he was seen through. Su Bei was too familiar with Kobe and did not jump up. Instead, he occupied Kobe's offensive space.
Seeing that Su Bei was not fooled, Kobe took advantage of the difference in rhythm to get up from the ball, raise his hand and shoot a huge fadeaway jumper..."
Su Bei predicted Kobe's movements. After all, he was not caught by Kobe's fake moves. Instead, he pushed Kobe into the corner step by step. Kobe only had two options left: passing the ball and forcing a shot.
When Kobe forcibly pulled it up, Su Bei jumped up at the same time, and the five fingers of his right hand covered the basketball in Kobe's hand.
"Kobe went back to avoid the block. His ability to stay in the air was too strong. He waited for Su Bei to fall before he threw the basketball..."
Bang-dang——!
Kobe was not used to the basket, and he forced his hand backwards. Under Su Bei's extreme defense, he missed the ball.
"Kobe's offense is on fire again.
What the hell?
Sessions grabbed an offensive rebound and turned around for a layup.
Snapped--!
Perkins rewarded him with a big pot and threw the basketball away.
Durant got the basketball and immediately rushed up with the ball to counterattack.
Su Bei accelerated back to the frontcourt and dropped to the left corner. Durant broke through to the end without moving forward, and threw the basketball to the left corner of the triangle. Su Bei caught the ball, got it empty, raised it, and raised his hand. Just a three-point jump shot..."
Kobe defended very actively, but it was a pity that he was still three meters away from Su Bei. No matter how active he defended, he still had to hear the gunshot.
Swish——!
"Yes!
Su Bei's three-pointer was accurately hit!
Connected with Durant and scored a three-pointer in the counterattack.
A very nice goal. Su Bei had no presence on the court just now, but as soon as he had a chance to score, he hit a fatal three-pointer with a cold arrow, giving the Lakers' defense a huge headache..."
8 to 7!
The Thunder can't defend, and the Lakers can't even try to defend.
The two sides fought very anxiously, and no one could do anything to their opponent.
…
Bang-dang——!
Sessions missed his jumper.
Gasol grabbed the basketball in the frontcourt, and then distributed the ball. Artes received the ball and made a three-point jump shot...
Bang-dang——!
Still missed.
"The Lakers still haven't been able to open up their outside firepower."
…
"Bangdang——!
What the hell?
Westbrook suddenly showed off a three-pointer and pulled out his hand, and then, nothing happened, and he missed the ball.
Fighting like this is like a brainless idiot!
Tonight, Westbrook lacked the hardness of the previous night.
He just hangs around outside and shoots nothing! "
…
In an offense where rookies peck each other.
With the advantage of rebounding and inside, the Lakers were able to score a second shot, gaining a 100 million point advantage.
After the first quarter, the score was 22 to 21. The Lakers turned away and took a 1-point lead.
Durant made 2 of 2 shots and Su Bei made 2 of 3. The efficiency seemed to be very high, but there were not many opportunities.
Westbrook made 2 of 7 shots, coupled with the performances of Perkins, 1 of 4, and Yin Baka, a pair of inside players, the Thunder fell behind, which was not unfair at all.
Kobe made 2 of 7 shots and 0 of 1 three-pointers. His efficiency was also not high, but he was better because he made 2 of 2 free throws. Coupled with Bynum's 3 of 6 shots and 4 of 4 free throws, the little KO combination combined to create a bang. It is reasonable to score 16 points and take the lead.
…
In the second quarter, rotation battle.
The Thunder continued to play a rich game, sending in Scott Brooks, Muhammad, Collison, Su Bei, Harden, and Billups.
For the Lakers, Gasol, Odom, Artest, Matt Barnes, Blake.
Just looking at reputation, the Lakers lineup is equally impressive.
"The Lakers had the ball, Blake lobbed the ball to Gasol, and then cut inside to the basket, taking away Billups' defense. Then, Matt Barnes continued to cut inside, using Gasol's Screening and passing, completing the drive to the basket..."
Swish——!
Barnes scored two points.
The score was 24 to 21, and the point difference widened to 3 points.
"With the blessing of the triangle offensive team's tactical system, the Lakers' role players have a good offensive space.
I don’t know how deep the water inside is, but Barnes has grasped it. With the Thunder’s defensive system, it really can’t withstand it..."
What do you use to top it?
To be honest, the Thunder's defense is not championship-level.
It is only through his overflowing talent and powerful offensive talent that he can reach the championship level.
"The Thunder offense, when Du Shao and Westbrook are away, the basketball is in Harden's hands.
He faced off against Artest.
Continuously stepping down and dribbling, he jumped in...no, jumped out again, and then made a pull-up three-point jumper..."
Artest obviously couldn't keep up with Harden's rhythm, so he could only bet that Harden's three-point pistol had no bullets.
Bang-dang——!
Harden's offensive skills with the ball are very good, but unfortunately, the basket is not used to him.
The three-point shot missed.
"The Lakers attacked, Blake brought the ball to the frontcourt, lobbed the ball to Gasol, and then cut inside.
What the hell?
After Gasol covered Blake, he acted like everyone else, faked a fax, hit Collison with his back, turned and completed the layup...
Swish——!
pretty!
Gasol played the ball very well.
Collison was overplayed, and his height was at a disadvantage. Gasol, who was in declining condition, couldn't hold up..."
The score was 26 to 21, and the point difference became 5 points.
Off the court, Scott Brooks was unfazed.
The Lakers attack hard, but their durability depends on the performance of the Thunder.
Billups dribbled the ball to the top of the arc and immediately turned over Harden's card.
"Still dribbling the ball to break through... No, Harden withdrew again, outside the three-point line, and continued to try three-point pull-up jumpers..."
Artest still can't keep up.
Logically speaking, if Harden breaks through with the ball, he has already lost it, and Harden has already reached the bottom.
Then, in the end, it's impossible to end up, Harden likes to play outside.
Bang-dang——!
still none!
Harden's three-pointer, without a microwave, still missed.
"Colison got the offensive rebound!
Immediately distribute the ball to Su Bei, catch the ball, raise his hand to shoot a three-point jumper, and... no, the basketball flew out of the basket, which was a hundred million points away from luck.
Su Bei also did it.
His three points were also sent.
Tonight, the Thunder failed to harden up either inside or outside, and they only struggled on the outside..."
Bang-dang——!
Blake's three-pointer also missed.
The offenses of both sides still didn't make much progress.
However, unknowingly, the rhythm of the game became a big open and close.
Harden rushed to the frontcourt and continued to try a three-point shot, but still missed.
If you try it, you will die. Lu Xun's words are still very reliable.
Harden's three-pointers are so good and he likes to shoot, you are becoming a veteran.
However, Harden is still Harden after all. Although he has no good three-point touch, he is still an unparalleled scoring trick.
Asking is a mistake!
"Harden continued to dribble the ball and broke through, instead of making another pull-up, he chose to European step to dribble the ball for a layup.
Beep——!
Seeing that Artest couldn't keep up, he could only use fouls to destroy it.
Harden got to the free throw line and made two free throws. "
…
"Then he played music, then he dribbled the ball to kill, and Harden beat Artest.
Once again, Artest got a chance to take a foul shot from Artest's body. "
…
After hitting four consecutive free throws, Artest was replaced by Sessions.
The Lakers don't have as many players as the Thunder. Even though they know that Sessions is also a cheat, they still have to let him play.
After all, no matter how bad his strength is, he is still better than others and younger than the core players.
Then, Harden broke into a sieve again.
"The Lakers' basket is going to be penetrated, so they can only shrink back and surround Harden.
Harden didn't wave. After reaching the end, he didn't shoot. He swung the basketball to the left three-point corner from the basket. Su Bei was empty again, raised his hand and continued to shoot a three-point jumper..."
Swish——!
There is no three-point shot that cannot be hit. If not, then try the second time!
Su Bei's scoring account continues to be opened.
The Thunder also relied on Harden's breakthrough foul-making skills and breakthrough points to assist Subei's three-pointers from the outside, gradually smoothing the difference between the two sides.
Five minutes later, Westbrook and Du Shao were back on the court.
The Wang Zha combination took the ball and continued to attack the Lakers' basket.
At this time, Phil Jackson replaced Kobe and Bynum, and it was impossible to slow down the rhythm of the game again.
When the Thunder unleashed their talents, the gap between the two sides began to widen visibly.
Durant broke through with the ball and went straight to Huanglong. He made a layup in the penalty area and scored two points.
…
Westbrook charged forward, and the paint area exploded with a brutal one-handed dunk. With a clang, he scored powerfully.
…
In the second quarter, the Thunder went all out and beat the Lakers with a score of 29-25.
At the end of the first half, the score was 50 to 47. The Thunder entered the locker room to rest with a 3-point lead.
…
