Chapter 402 Unstoppable

Chapter 402 Unstoppable
It is indeed a strategy for the Thunder to go outside to restrict the Spurs inside.

It's a pity that this strategy is not popular now, and the alliance still prefers a combination of internal and external tactics.

Moreover, under the defense at the playoff level, especially at the conference finals level, any outside line will suffer a bit. difficult.

Therefore, even if the Thunder have 5 outside shots, it is not so easy to easily win the outside shots under the defense of the Spurs.

Therefore, the Spurs played inside and the Thunder played outside. The Thunder suffered a big loss!

Especially the two generals inside the Spurs, Duncan and Whiteside, one has weight and the other can fly. No matter which one it is, the Thunder's current inside configuration cannot prevent it.

You can't let Durant fight Whiteside in the air!Although Durant's jumping and arm length are also top-notch, Whiteside's physique is more suitable for air combat, and Durant is almost meaningless compared to him.

And Martin's defense against Duncan is a tragedy. Duncan swore that since he entered the league, this is the easiest defense he has encountered in the Western Conference Finals, without any pressure at all!
Duncan didn't even bother to do some basic moves. After taking the ball and leaning back, he could directly fly the reed-like Martin out.

At the beginning, Durant had the idea of ​​helping Martin defend, but after estimating the physical gap between himself and Duncan, Durant also gave up this idea.

After all, Durant knows that Duncan has a high IQ. If he dares to defend casually, Whiteside behind him will hang on the basket in the next second!

If Durant doesn't defend, Martin will be completely unlucky. Without Duncan's bullying, he has no temper at all. If Martin's crooked tricks on the offensive end can make three-pointers, Martin might not have any sense of presence today.

The inside line was completely suppressed by the Spurs, and the Thunder could only seek a breakthrough from the outside line. The five three-pointers are not just for bragging. If everyone can fully fire, it will be enough for the Spurs to drink a pot.

But the "Old Man" duo on the outside of the Spurs is quite experienced, and the two of them will basically not give their opponents a chance to shoot easily.

What's even more frightening is that these two old guys on the outside of the Spurs can also shoot three-pointers. When defending, the Thunder people have to prevent these two old guys from making cold shots.

Duncan's inside is turning upside down, and Durant and Westbrook are anxious to see it, so when they are attacking, Durant and Westbrook also frequently rush inside!
The Thunder's second young masters are betting everything now. After all, after Ibaka goes down, the Thunder's game is really in danger. If the two young masters can't cause damage inside, and then hit the Spurs' inside, then the next step will be It's going to be tough.

As for the insiders of the Spurs, except for Whiteside, Diaw and Duncan are the kind of old fritters, and the two of them will not foul casually, except that Whiteside is a bit of a dick and occasionally commits once or twice. , The Spurs basically have zero fouls inside.

The attack on the inside line is not smooth, and the outside line cannot be opened. The Thunder team really feels a little out of their wits now.

"Kevin, it's really troublesome."

Westbrook and Durant gritted their ears. There was nothing they could do. It was nearly halftime, and now the Spurs were firmly in control of the situation. The Thunder tried their best to catch up, but they still couldn't catch up.

It's like a drowning person who can clearly see the surface of the water when he looks up, but he still has no way to surface.

If it is fine in the short term, but in the long run, the drowning person will probably lose the desire to survive, and finally sink directly into the sea.

At the end of the half, the Thunder were almost 20 points behind the Spurs. Both the juniors had done their best. Durant scored 15+ in the first half, and Westbrook also scored 5+40. This is an excellent offensive point guard. According to the data of Weiwei, the two together scored almost [-] points!
This ability is considered very powerful in all duo groups.

Unfortunately, apart from the two of them, none of the Thunder combined scored 20 points.

On the other hand, the Spurs did not have more than 20+, but the team already had 5 scoring in double figures in the first half.

The Spurs are a pure team offense, all come together, collectively score, and collectively defend.

At halftime, both Westbrook and Durant complained to Coach Brooks.

"Coach, I really can't fight any more! I can't stand it if this continues!"

Westbrook is very helpless, there is really no way, he and Durant have tried their best, but they still can't stop the Spurs' massive attack.

"That's right, coach, I really can't stop it. The accuracy of the outside line cannot be guaranteed, and the inside line on the opposite side is too fierce!"

Durant now feels that his body is already bruised and purple. When he was fighting with Duncan and Whiteside just now, Durant had already tried his best. The two guys, Whiteside and Duncan, were physically Hard, let go of the fight again, desperately hit the inside line, Durant just used his thin body to fight these two guys hard.

In this way, there must be more physical confrontation, and Durant's style of play is not the kind of play that relies on muscles, so now it is very troublesome for Durant to force his physical play.

Westbrook is a little better than Durant. It is relatively easy for him to play Parker. Parker can't stop him. It is very easy for him to rush directly to layup or dunk.

But the problem is, even if Westbrook goes in, he can't do too much damage. The Spurs don't foul, so what can you do?

If it weren't for Whiteside who was really a little tender and was forced to make two fouls, Westbrook's impact tactics in the first half would have been shaved.

Coach Brooks was also sweating on his palms and back. There was really nothing he could do. This was the first time he had used this tactic, and he didn't know what effect it would have.

Judging from the current situation, this effect is not good, but Coach Brooks has nothing to do, there is no one in hand now! !

"Kevin, Russell, hold on, hang on for a while, and then Kendrick can go up."

Coach Brooks can only ask Durant and Westbrook to help. This is the biggest card in his hand. If neither of them can do anything, then Brooks has nothing to do.

Durant and Westbrook were very helpless, but they also knew that the coach could not be blamed for this, the coach had tried his best.

So when the third quarter started, the two felt even more pressure, thinking that the Spurs had replaced their outside line with Leonard, Qin Yan and Parker, and the defensive combination of Qin Yan and Leonard It is even top-notch!
Durant and Westbrook are like boats in a storm, already crumbling.

I can't stop it, I really can't stop it! ! !

 I'm in a hurry today. I'm too sleepy and tired at night. For the sake of quality, there is only one update. Everyone can read it and go to bed. Good night, fellow readers...
