Chapter 1325 Durant's defect, want to stage a counter-kill? NO!

But Durant's prestige will not last long.Because after the Lakers were dismantled by the opponent's personal ability to break down the BoxAnd1 defensive tactics, they suddenly changed defenses in the next round and directly adopted a high-post delay against Durant.Durant still wanted to rely on his personal ability to dribble the ball over, but hey, he only ran a few steps, and he was suddenly attacked by the Lakers when he got near the three-point line.Durant hurriedly took the ball, but Rondo of the Lakers saw through it and broke it immediately. The Lakers counterattacked.

Tang Qian attacked inside, causing Adams' fourth foul and making 2 of 2 from the free throw line.

Durant held the ball, and the Lakers delayed and then attacked instantly. The Lakers' defensive focus shifted from Westbrook to Durant. Durant stepped up and made a hit.This ball is really difficult, but it's a pity that Durant is tall and long, and he pulls out his hand dryly, which is an unreasonable offense at all.In terms of shooting space, Durant doesn't need anything.

He just has to pull hard.

This is a natural advantage.

But it doesn't matter, the Lakers are just exhausted with Durant, let's see who will collapse first.Tang Qian faced the basket and killed the basket step by step, Westbrook suddenly gave Durant a point, and Durant made a "big loop" and won a free throw opportunity.Made 2 of 2 from the free throw line.The score difference was biting to death, but the Lakers did not panic. They were waiting for the Thunder to have problems first and make mistakes first.

This is also the longest thing many teams do when they are in a stalemate with the Thunder.

The Thunder team couldn't hold their breath. In many cases, even in a good situation, he could be wiped out.

Sure enough, the same is true in this game. With the increase of turnovers, the Lakers gradually gained the upper hand, but they still almost want to beat their opponents.The Thunder team is probably used to opponents using mistakes to counterattack, so they are not flustered and are quite calm.In addition, Durant forced his life to continue, and missed several extremely difficult long-range shots.

This is the kind of ball that you can't defend, and it's either that you didn't defend well, or your opponent just got it.

After Durant was silent for 2 games, this game finally erupted a little. He held the Lakers back by himself, making it impossible to widen the score difference, and it kept criss-crossing.This is the power of a giant planet.Sure enough, simple and rude.In other words, the giant planet was originally a tactic.Larry Brown replaced Covington, replaced Ariza, and let Covington play the 3rd position.

The small forward is naturally Durant.

Larry Brown had only one request for Covington, to consume the opponent desperately, so that the opponent would no longer be miraculous in the fourth quarter.

因为杜兰特的体能一直不是很好，生涯基本上和防阵无缘就是例子。而且他季后赛掉链子很严重，倒不是心态问题。更多的时候，就是他体能不够用，累了而已。这样的例子太多了。比如2010年G1面对湖人队第四节7投2中，命中率28.6%。G2第四节6投2中，命中率33.3%。G5天王山命中率3成5。G6淘汰战下半场12投3中。次年对阵灰熊第G3第四节7投2中，28%的命中率。G2第四节3投0中。G6第四节4投0中。打小牛G2第四节6投2中，G4第四节8投2中。2012年总决赛也有第三场6投2中，西决打马刺第四节2投0中。而这已经是他在雷霆队最好的季后赛状态了。剩下的三年每一年命中率就是45%左右，作为高效打法的3号位，突然就和所谓铁匠科比这个2号位一样了。而不要忘了，杜兰特的单打比率比科比少了太多。原时空本赛季更别提了，打小牛队G2第四节10投2中，命中率20%。G3第四节4投1中命中率25%。G4第四节7投2中命中率28.6%。G5下半场11投4中。打马刺队也有第四节4投1中。西决更别说那些大量的第四节崩盘。G1第四节12投3中命中率25%。G2第四节3投1中。G4第四节4投1中。G5第四节10投3中。G6第四节7投1中命中率14.3%。最后的抢七战，全场杜兰特命中率52.6%看起来很完美，但是看看第四节呢，9投4中，命中率44.4%。等等，别急，最后5分钟变成了5投2中。然后最后的120秒，只剩下了3投1中。逐步下滑。

There are still several years of playoffs left unlisted.Look at Durant's fourth quarter of the playoffs, and you will know that his physical collapse is very serious.Basically every season in the playoffs, there are many games with extremely low shooting percentages in the fourth quarter.And at that time, isn't it the time when a team needs him most?So Larry Brown's tactical layout is very clear. Although he didn't play in the super unlimited defensive lineup, let Covington play the 3rd position.Give him a task, just entangle the opponent madly and consume the opponent.

Durant's physical fitness has always been a big problem.

When his physical fitness comes down, it will be a breeze for the Lakers to win.

Because the Lakers' defense is very strong, there are always defensive champions at the 3rd position, so the consumption of Durant has never been small.Especially after finally consuming Ariza as the starter, Durant suddenly found out when the opponent replaced him on the bench, wow, it turns out that the defender who came from the bench is a real defender.

too strong!His defense is much stronger than Ariza just now!Coupled with his height and wingspan, although Durant is still scoring, his efficiency is declining visible to the naked eye.Judging from the situation, he couldn't even make it to the fourth quarter, so he couldn't stand it anymore.

In the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, Durant began to hit the iron continuously, and his ball handling errors also increased.As for the Lakers, they have stepped up their offense on the inside and the low post, because no matter what, Tang Qian still faces less defensive pressure than Durant.Durant's defenders, whether it is Ariza or Covington, are real guys known for their defense. What about here?Although Adams has a tough and wild style of play, he is not as good as later this season. He can't reach the point of being a defensive champion.After Tang Qian increased the frequency of deliberately killing insiders, Adams was finally unable to escape the clutches of the clutches. With five criminals in hand, he could only be replaced temporarily.The Thunder had no big man to use, so they had to replace Kanter.

When defending the 5th position, the last guy in the league.

Billy Donovan also told Kanter in advance that he must defend with all his strength, regardless of offense, and count as many as he can block.However, Kanter still let him down. When Adams hit, Tang Qian singled Kanter like no one, and his scoring efficiency began to explode rapidly.Coupled with Durant's continuous strikes, the Thunder are about to lose.

The score difference was widened to 10 points again.

The Thunder paused, but the effect was not good. After the third quarter, the Lakers led by 13 points.Durant is already tired, and Covington's defensive consumption on him is much stronger than that of Ariza just now.Durant's physical fitness began to sound the siren of exhaustion.And now, the Thunder have also reached the edge of a cliff. If Durant falls, they will definitely be finished.The superstars can't play, and they don't dare to let the Lakers open as a whole. Failure has become an inevitable thing.

While Billy Donovan was still struggling, an even more unfortunate news appeared. Westbrook twisted his ankle when he broke through, and he felt uncomfortable on the spot.The Thunder team doctor came up to check and asked Westbrook to go back to the locker room, which means that it is best not to play this game.Upon hearing the news, the coaching staff of the Thunder team and all the fans in the audience were all wailing.

Brian Davis, the on-site commentator of the Chesapeake Energy Arena, even held his head and said: "It's unfortunate that we lost Russell. It's unfortunate that we lost a major player at such a critical time." , I think the goddess of victory is about to leave Oklahoma." Billy Donovan also had a gloomy face, not knowing what else to say.

Because of Westbrook's injury, the morale of the Thunder team has also been significantly affected. This game...is difficult to play.

Alas, I didn't expect it to end like this, I... can't be reconciled.

Just when the Lakers players thought the overall situation was settled, there was a sudden commotion in the Chesapeake Energy Arena. Listening carefully, it seemed to be bursts of cheers.It got bigger and bigger, and quickly spread throughout the arena.The Lakers players looked at the big screen above their heads and immediately understood the source of these people's cheers.It turned out that Russell Westbrook, who was supposed to enter the locker room, forcibly walked out, and then acted like I was going to continue playing.

For Americans, this scene is the drama of "the hero's return", and it has happened many times in history.Including "Reid Returns" that year.The "Yao Ming Returns" of the Rockets.When the Celtics and the Lakers played in the finals, "Pierce is back" and so on, this is something that can boost people's morale and spirit.

Westbrook is not pretending, he really gritted his teeth and wanted to continue.

This scene made the on-site commentator also refreshed, as if he had beaten chicken blood, he shouted loudly: "Russell is back! Russell is back! Judging by his appearance, he is going to continue playing! This This kind of spirit is worthy of admiration! It is worthy of winning the favor of the goddess of victory again! Everyone shout with me~ O~K~C~”

"O~K~C~"

"O~K~C~"

"O~K~C~"

A large number of Thunder fans began to shout, coupled with the uniform home T-shirts, the momentum was amazing, making the home team players feel that their blood was rising again, and making the visiting team players feel that the entire stadium seemed to be full of pressure all of a sudden.

Westbrook really lived up to expectations, he was ruthless as soon as he came up, and he scored two consecutive three-pointers from the top arc, and the score difference was narrowed all at once.Then he rushed over to destroy the Lakers' lob pass inside the ball, and then quickly passed the ball to the front. Andre Robertson, who had never had a sense of presence, quickly got off in time and caught the ball.

beep beep~
Score ~ ​​extra penalty ~ the Thunder will catch up with 9 points in an instant! ! !This made the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena cheer again! ! !
Larry Brown called a timeout. He wanted to go to the Super Unlimited defensive lineup and eliminate the opponent in one go.Don't let the opponent rise again.But at this time, a yellow figure turned his face and said: "Sir, they are not ahead of us now, right? According to our conditions in the locker room, you should not use your hole card now." Larry Brown wanted to say something, but Tang Qian directly preempted him and said, "Sir~ trust me~ trust us~"

"A mere 'return drama' can't shake anything, and we will still win this game."

"This round of the series will still end here at the Chesapeake Energy Arena."

PS: Still, continue~~~~~~~~
