The best teammates in the NBA
Chapter 168
Chapter 168 Ruthless
When there are 2.3 seconds left in the game, the world of Slam Dunk will definitely give the audience a memory kill, and they will never stop until they play for 20 minutes. In the world of Heizi's basketball, the big guys can enter the zone together in 2.3 seconds , fight 300 rounds
In an NBA game, 2.3 seconds is enough for the Mavericks to complete a lore. When Li Ze hit the three-pointer before the end, the coach Brooks on the sidelines and the atmosphere on the bench were all crazy Congratulations, this script exceeded all expectations.
Coach Carlisle used the last timeout of the game, and the Mavericks still had a glimmer of life. Whether it was a two-pointer or a three-pointer, as long as the ball was thrown into the basket, tonight's victory still belonged to them.
The referee had already arrived at the technical stage at this time, and everyone was constantly watching the replay to see if they needed to return the watch. After all, the moment just now was too chaotic, and the court was in chaos, and the three-pointer suddenly hit in.
On the other side of the ocean, in the CCTV studio, host Yang Jian and guest Yang Yi also calmed down their excitement, and then said:
"I'm really sorry, I was too excited just now, the voice was a little louder, and there are 2.3 seconds left in the game, Li Ze is a quasi lore! The Mavericks still have a chance!"
"Yang Yi, do you think the Mavericks can seize the last 2.3 seconds? If the Mavericks lose this game at home, then there will be no suspense in this round of the series. No team can fall behind 0:3 Under the circumstances, with 4 wins in a row, the Thunder have already put one foot on the floor of the Western Conference Finals!"
After Yang Yi heard the words of the host Yang Jian, he immediately responded:
"Anything is possible! 2.3 seconds is enough time for the Mavericks to complete a beautiful sideline ball, and the Thunder are difficult to defend. The opponent who fouls will stand on the free throw line. Both two-pointers and three-pointers have to be defended. At this time, we must Hell, throw it in the Mavericks and bring it back to life!"
The spectators at the American Airlines Center arena are clasping their fists and praying for a miracle to happen to the Mavericks. The team owner Cuban under the basketball stand also stands up at this moment. In two seconds, the team will be determined. Fate, he couldn't sit still.
On the bench of the Mavericks, head coach Carlisle quickly drew the sideline tactics that had been prepared, and the assistant coach also reminded everyone to keep calm:
"Dampier, Haywood, you two screens for Dirk in the right paint at the same time, Butler, you're at the top of the key, pull Lee out of the three-point line, screen cuts guys, big screen Action, the referee will not call a foul, we have enough time to shoot!"
In the final stage, head coach Carlisle still chose to trust the veteran. He replaced Marion with Dampier again, and used two centers to cover Nowitzki. In the final stage, the Mavericks at home will definitely not be whistled by the referee. Foul, bold screen is right
As for the Thunder, Coach Brooks finally calmed down his excitement, and kept reminding his players loudly:
"Don't foul, guys! Russell, you interfere with the serve in front, Kevin, Green, Ibaka, keep an eye on your defender, Kayce, you have to pay attention to Butler's movement, prevent the opponent from suddenly cutting to the basket, Stay focused, we're only 2.3 seconds away from victory!"
Although the Mavericks only had a short timeout of 20 seconds, because the referee reviewed the situation on the court, the timeout was longer than expected, and the uniform team on the Thunder team had already begun to put pressure on the technical table , indicating that the referee has timed out!
All the Mavericks fans at the scene got up to watch the game, and everyone was looking forward to a miracle. At this time, the scene suddenly became a little quiet, and all the noisy voices almost disappeared.
Li Ze's thoughts at this moment are just to keep an eye on Caron Butler, who is facing up. At the final stage of the game, he has already played by instinct. Such a game with ups and downs really doesn't allow him to think too much.
"squeak"
The whistle sounded, and Kidd, who was standing on the sideline, took over the basketball from the referee. Turtle was right in front of him raising his hands, bouncing and jumping, trying to interfere with the serve, while the players at the other end of the court were already crowded together. It's a mess.
Dampier and Haywood played a role. Under the almost mobile pick-and-roll pull of the two, Nowitzki instantly got rid of the entanglement of Jeff Green and Ibaka.
When Nowitzki came to the left waist to receive Kidd's pass, Durant's defense also chased him, with a light touch, completely shaking the defense, and then quickly shot from the middle distance.
When the ball was in the air, the indicator light for the end game was already on. Everyone in the American Airlines Center Arena was staring at the basketball in the air. For the first time, Li Ze felt that two seconds were so long.
"Bang bang."
When the ball hit the back edge of the rim, it seemed to fall into the rim again, but in the end, the basketball still knocked out of the rim, and in the next second, two sounds erupted in the American Airlines Center arena.
"Ah!!" "Oh!!"
"Shot! No. Didn't score! There is no miracle! Nowitzki missed the shot. With Li Ze's quasi-lore, 116:115, the Thunder won Game 3 in the away game! The Western Conference finals are already beckoning to them! "
The host Yang Jian raised his volume again and loudly announced the result of the competition.
At this time, everyone in the Thunder team flocked to Li Ze again, the joy of victory welled up in their hearts, everyone hugged and screamed, and the audience on the scene let out a huge exclamation, and then began to curse:
"Fucker! That rebound fouled, shitty referee!"
"Shet! You stole Dallas' victory!"
"Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
On the sidelines, a 10-year-old blond boy hugged his father and cried directly. Everyone knows what it means to be behind 0:3. As for the miracle of winning 4 games in a row, it may only appear in a dream .
Li Ze wanted to pretend to be an X, but he was thrown down again by Guigui. This guy did not look at him at all. Li Ze, who fell on the ground, was a big man at this time. Although the joy of victory welled up in his heart, he still Silently spit out a slot in my heart:
"I just want to pretend to be X quietly, why is it so difficult."
The May Day holiday and the Western Conference semifinals brought more attention to the game between the Thunder and the Mavericks than ever before, and Li Ze's quasi-lore made all the fans in front of the TV shout loudly.
It's just that when everyone wanted to log in to the Hupu forum and give a good blow about Li Ze, they found that the webpage couldn't be opened at all. In desperation, the fans turned to Sina Weibo and wanted to leave a message under Li Ze's personal Weibo, but found that Same here
This situation lasted for more than 10 minutes before the fans logged in to Hupu again, but at this time everyone’s first reaction was to spray spam websites, and the server was crashed by a game. never seen it.
"Garbage tigers, it will be cold sooner or later! Such a wonderful game, your server crashed after the game, can you still let the fans watch the game well?"
"Hurry up and buy some servers, this experience is too bad, Li Zeniu X, the Thunder team won in a daze, this game really stunned me."
"Li Ze is really amazing! 34 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 turnover and 2 steals. Is this a rookie? This is a superstar. In the Western Conference semifinals, he shot the Mavericks. I can brag about this situation for the rest of my life!"
"I'm stupid, 19 of 13, including 7 of 5 three-pointers, 4 of 3 free throws, and the final lore, really kneeling for me! Li Zeniu X, Thunder champion!"
"Nowitzki is too miserable. This round of the series may be swept by the Thunder! The gentleman swept the Spurs in the first round, and then swept the Mavericks in the semifinals. Now the two teams must be tied. After the Mavericks, the players went straight away Went back to the locker room, didn't even shake hands."
"Next season will be interesting. The Western Conference playoffs will definitely be these teams. Maybe everyone will meet again. I'm already looking forward to it. Is the theme of the NBA's next season revenge?"
In the locker room of the visiting team after the game, everyone on the Thunder team was all smiling. They were about to enter the Western Conference Finals, and Durant was even more excited.
Agent Kleiman told him that if he can really reach the Western Conference finals, Nike's 10-year contract of 3 million US dollars will almost be stable, and the additional clauses will be easier, that is [-] million US dollars!When Durant thought of those beautiful green knives, he was excited to dance with the turtle.
Everyone in the Thunder team came over and gave Li Ze an excited high-five. After Coach Brooks came to the locker room, he saw everyone excited and said loudly with a smile:
"Guys, we will have a day off tomorrow, but everyone should arrange their own time well. There is still G4 to play the day after tomorrow. This is an incredible game. Let's enjoy the victory!"
"Oh oh!!"
When Li Ze returned to the hotel to rest, he finally recovered from his excitement. He saw hundreds of unread text messages on his phone, and scratched his head helplessly. It seemed that he had to spend a lot of time replying to messages before going to bed. .
After all the text messages were answered, it was almost early morning. Thinking that there would be no training tomorrow, Li Ze happily swiped Twitter for a while, watched the crazy praise of Oklahoma City fans, and then fell asleep contentedly. .
In the dream training space, after exhaling from the control panel, Li Ze immediately saw the prompt in the achievement room. As expected, a new badge was produced for tonight's game.
Achievement Badge [Key Shooter]: 1/50
Improve the ability to score key goals at critical moments.
Achievement badge [long-range fixed-point shooter]: 2/50
Expands the range in which players can effectively shoot in-place [-]-pointers.
After entering the achievement room, Li Ze immediately checked the two bronze badges. The bonus effect of [Key Shooter] is simple and rough, while [Long-range Fixed-point Shooter] is very practical. Appropriately adding some long-range shots will help him better Get out of the defense.
It's just that when he thought about the upgrade of the badge, Li Ze could only complain powerlessly:
"How to upgrade the badge in a three-quarter check-in game? After all, there may only be two or three critical moments in a season."
On May 5th, the media in America collectively praised the performance of Li Ze and LeBron James. In the semi-final match that ended last night, both of them played exceptionally well, and both led the team to victory. No need to go through the procedure, just start blowing!
In TNT's NBA 24-hour program, the scene of Li Zezhun's lore was repeatedly played. Last night, TNT's ace combination Kevin Harlan and Reggie Miller also served as commentators on the spot.
"Can you imagine the Dallas Mavericks going to be swept out by the Thunder? It's unbelievable. This game is really beyond our expectations. Guys, I think there is no suspense in this set of matchups."
After watching the replay, the host Ernie Johnson immediately said firmly to Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley beside him.
"This is really a crazy game. I think the head coaches of each team in the league will definitely not choose to fight against the Thunder after this game. Maybe we should pay more attention to three-pointers!"
After the game last night, Kenny Smith began to brag about Li Ze's performance, especially those 5 three-pointers, which were almost blown away by him.
"This game is really beyond our cognition. The Mavericks did not attack continuously in the low post, but shot more from the outside. Although Nowitzki scored 36 points again, he lost the game. I think Coach Carlisle's strategy is wrong, the Mavericks are playing too softly."
Charles Barkley still insists on his tough guy basketball theory. He always believes that the Mavericks should be crazy about the inside.
"Come on, man, you need to look at the Thunder's perimeter firepower, Lee scored 34 points, Durant also scored 28 points, plus Russell's 22 points, if the Mavericks don't respond in a row on the perimeter , The game may have ended long ago, and the Thunder really created a new style of play."
Host Ernie Johnson immediately refuted Barkley's point of view.
"OK! Let's talk about this issue later. There was another game last night. In G3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Cavaliers beat the Celtics 124:95 in the away game. LeBron James scored 22 of 14. To 38 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal and 1 turnover, we must also praise James for his performance!"
Kenny Smith once again brought the topic to the Eastern Conference semifinals, and James was also the hot spot last night!
"LeBron James showed his dominance. It is said that the North Shore Garden Arena was silent last night. After this game, the Cavaliers regained the initiative again. If they get to the battle of Tianwangshan, they will return to Cliff Lan, this is definitely good news for the Cavaliers!"
Charles Barkley immediately praised James, winning an away game is not an easy task.
"Guys, in the two games last night, who do you think Lee or James played better? Now many fans are discussing this issue. What do you want to say about this?"
Moderator Ernie Johnson once again raised a question of making things happen.
"Kayce is a rookie, it's not fair to compare him to LeBron James right now, but just for last night's game, I'd take Kayce, he helped the Thunder's game-winning Mavericks, and it almost completely changed the game. He was the superstar last night!"
Kenny Smith continued to unswervingly brag about Li Ze, he has almost evolved into Li Ze's brainless bragging.
"I will pick LeBron James. I don't disrespect Dallas, but the Celtics are obviously a stronger opponent. Facing the performance of the Big Three, LeBron James performed even better. Saved the Cavaliers!"
"But after watching the game, you know that the Celtics were slow in the first quarter and only scored 17 points. This is the reason for their loss. James is very good, but last night's game, the Celtics Losing is only their own fault."
The host Ernie Johnson couldn't help but smile when he saw Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith arguing again. He was very good at the effect of the program.
On this night, the East and West semifinals started again. In the Eastern semifinals, there was still no suspense in the matchup between the Magic and the Eagles. At 105:75, the Magic beat the Eagles by 30 points in an away game.
Al Horford was completely deflated against Warcraft Howard, and Joe Johnson's overall defense was completely misfired against the Magic. The Eagles scored a total of 33 points in the first half. Such a scoring ability is naturally impossible to win.
In the Western Conference semifinals, the Suns returned to the home court and pulled back a victory. Facing the Lakers' two-tower lineup, head coach Gentry directly turned the team's defense into a zone defense. Although Kobe Bryant scored 36 Points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists, but 5 turnovers, also shows that the Suns' defense has worked.
At 109:118, the united Suns defended their home court, still retaining the suspense of this round of the series.
And everyone on the Thunder team who was resting naturally also watched the game. The Suns' zone defense greatly inspired Coach Brooks and the coaching staff. After all, they have already stepped on the floor of the Western Conference Finals. Time to think about the next round of opponents.
"Kobe Bryant is still at his peak, facing the Suns' pincer defense, he played so efficiently."
Seeing Kobe's performance, Guigui couldn't help sighing, that kind of unreasonable shooting will definitely destroy the defender's psychology.
"But the Suns still won. Pau Gasol was great. Bynum was completely restrained. This guy usually brags that he is the No. [-] center in the Western Conference. Look at his shitty performance this time." , haha, I really want to mock him on Twitter!"
Durant has always been uncomfortable with the arrogant appearance of some Lakers players. He was very happy when the Suns won.
"Artest on the perimeter is the key. The Suns' zone defense also allowed the Lakers to get a lot of three-pointers. However, 32 of 9 shots and a 28% three-pointer percentage cannot support the Lakers. Winning, it's similar to our last game."
When Li Ze saw the technical statistics after the game, he immediately understood the Suns' defensive strategy. In the case of strictly guarding against Kobe, they reduced their defense on the flanks. Obviously, Coach Gentry made the right bet. Outside line, failed to give a response.
"Don't worry! Kayce, tomorrow night's game, I will hit the ball in response. We will completely kill the Mavericks from beyond the three-point line. Haha, we are about to enter the Western Conference finals!"
With a big score of 3:0, Jeff Green has let go of himself at this time, and there is no pressure at all. In the case of a big tailwind, Li Ze also believes that his teammates will fight harder and harder.
"Take a good rest, boys! Tomorrow night we will try our best to win the game. If we can end this round of the series early, we will have enough rest time. Just keep calm. We have completed the task of the road trip .”
Coach Brooks immediately reassured the players. Now the team's primary goal is to keep the main players healthy. The coaching staff don't want to see players suddenly injured before the Western Conference Finals.
"Don't worry, coach!"
"No problem, we'll sweep the Mavericks!"
"The Oklahoma City fans must love us, I can't wait to go home!"
On May 5th, G9, the semifinals of the Eastern and Western Conferences, is about to start. For all Oklahoma City fans, everyone has begun to fantasize about sweeping their opponents and entering the Western Conference Finals.
But the fans of the Mavericks felt extremely painful. G3 was lore and lost, and they may face a sweeping scene tonight. This made the fans a little depressed. They fell behind 0:3. More on this game tonight It's probably Honorable Mention.
Coach Carlisle simply comforted his players during the afternoon training. At this time, chicken soup for the soul is no longer working. Everyone has been in the league for many years. What does it mean to be behind 0:3? clear.
Dirk Nowitzki has been doing shooting training silently. In this round of the series, he has given his all, but the lore missed in the last game still made him feel guilty, and he had obviously passed Defensive, but misses in the best position
Veteran Kidd simply did some restorative training. Of course, he knows that the overall situation of this round of the series has been decided. At the end of his career, he only wants to chase the championship. However, it seems that there are still many obstacles on the way to the championship. The west is really getting more and more volume.
Caron Butler looked depressed, and he couldn't get up in training. The NBA is actually very cruel. A poor performance in the playoffs will definitely affect the next contract. Obviously, in the matchup with Li Ze, Caron - butler devalued himself
This is the same as George Hill's treatment in the Spurs series. As long as he plays against Li Ze, there is basically no good fruit to eat. Caron Bart is already thinking about where he will go next season. , he knew very well in his heart that the Mavericks would most likely not keep him.
Time flies, American Airlines Center Arena, when the team is about to be eliminated, Dallas fans still choose to come to the scene to support the team. After all, it is a team that has experienced Black 8, and the fans are relatively strong.
It's just that compared to the atmosphere of the last game, the arena is much quieter. Although everyone is wearing white cheering T-shirts, they all know in their hearts that tonight is the battle of honor.
On the other side of the ocean, today is the day to resume work, which makes the game between the Thunder and the Mavericks much less interesting.
However, for many student parties, this did not affect them secretly watching the text live broadcast, and many who had no class in the morning even came to Sina Sports early. Today, it is possible to witness the Thunder team enter the Western Conference Finals!The game is a must watch!
Before the game, the host Ke Xiaofan and the guest Ma Jian reviewed the situation of the last game together, especially Li Ze’s quasi-lore, which was watched several times by everyone. Throw the topic:
"I don't mean to disrespect the Mavericks, but now we can also imagine the Thunder's opponents after entering the Western Conference Finals. Director Ma, which team do you think is more beneficial to the Thunder to advance, the Lakers or the Suns?"
"Of course it is the Suns. Although the Suns have Stoudemire on the inside, it is actually difficult to limit the performance of the Thunder's trio in terms of defense on the outside. Moreover, Steve Nash, Grant Schiller Er is already a veteran player, and now he has some problems with his physical fitness."
In fact, Ma Jian also hopes that the Suns can advance. After all, if they really want to meet the Lakers, it can be expected that Gasol will definitely not be restricted. In addition, Kobe Bryant and Ron - Artest completely restrained the Thunder in the lineup.
"Judging from the record of the regular season, the Thunder did not lose to the Lakers, but the gap in experience between the two sides cannot be made up. I also hope that the Suns can advance. Let's work harder at the next home court. In today's game, Ma Guidance, do you think the Thunder have completed the sweep?"
Host Ke Xiaofan once again brought the topic back to tonight's game.
"I think the Mavericks should try their best to win at home, and the players don't want to disappoint the fans, but there is another situation that may happen. The big score is 0:3 behind, and some players' state may plummet. Maybe the suspense will be lost at halftime."
"Thank you for the comments from Director Ma. The game is about to start. Judging from the starting rosters from the front, the two teams still maintain the rotation lineup of the previous game. Let's switch the screen to the front first!"
The thunder in the player tunnel is full of people. It can be clearly felt that the atmosphere in the American Airlines Center Arena is far worse than the previous game. The audience is no longer enthusiastic and shouting. Although the DJ on the scene is working hard to drive the atmosphere, the big score is behind , It still makes the fans a little bit unmotivated.
"Maybe we will advance tonight. We will sweep our opponents in the semifinals. This is a good achievement. In the Western Conference finals, the attention has risen to a new level. Maybe next season we will have more live broadcasts across the United States!"
Durant has always expected that he will receive more attention, and he is extremely excited when he thinks that he will stand on the stage of the Western Conference Finals soon.
"I will mobilize all my relatives and friends and let them all come to see my Western Conference Finals. I think I can boast about my experience this season, and my son will definitely be proud of me!"
Many players in the NBA will never have such an experience in their lifetime, and Jeff Green feels that he is already floating.
"Bro, you haven't even settled on a girlfriend, and you think of your son so soon? We are still young, and the championship is our goal. The Western Conference Finals are just the beginning. Believe me, this is just the beginning!"
Li Ze calmly pretended to be an X. Everyone in the Thunder team was speechless after hearing his words, but they were powerless to refute. After all, according to Li Ze's ability, there is nothing wrong with competing for the championship.
"Yes, we will definitely win the championship. We are the youngest team in the league. The future is definitely ours! Tonight I will sweep the Mavericks. I want to return to Oklahoma City to enjoy the victory. Have a baking party, Nina will definitely like it very much!"
The nervous tortoise didn't notice Li Ze's act of pretending to be X, and followed Li Ze's words to imagine the future. When everyone heard that there was another party in Oklahoma City, everyone immediately became energetic. Although the tortoise organized The activities are relatively plain, but the atmosphere is definitely not worth mentioning.
"Cool! Sweep the Mavericks! Go home and party!"
"Ow!!"
After all the players entered the field, the two sides conducted the final warm-up before the game. Li Ze keenly noticed that Caron Butler was no longer confronting him. It seemed that the opponent was indeed convinced by him.
During the warm-up phase, everyone on the Thunder team had a relaxed and happy expression on their faces, while everyone on the Mavericks team looked serious. The home game of honor is not easy to play. If they lose again, the Dallas fans Definitely have to fry the pan!
When the referee signaled the players from both sides to come to the center of the field, everyone simply greeted each other. Kostic and Dampier stood in the middle circle and prepared to jump the ball. The DJ on the scene began to lead everyone to cheer for the home team.
"Let" go Mavs! Let'go Mavs! Let'go Mavs! "
Despite the sound of cheering on the scene, Krstic performed exceptionally bravely, and easily moved the ball to the Thunder team. Turtle controlled the ball in front and back, immediately made an offensive gesture to his teammates, and then dribbled halfway field.
The Mavericks did not choose zone defense at the beginning. After all, in the last game, they were shot by the outside line of the Thunder. At this time, Li Ze was standing near the paint area on the baseline and noticed that the turtle and Kostic in the distance were fighting. After a pick-and-roll, start immediately.
Jeff Green made a screen for Li Ze at this time, successfully delaying the entanglement of Caron Butler. When Li Ze received the pass from the turtle, Krstic set a screen near the free throw line again, and the turtle The turtle moves to the left to make room
And two consecutive screens successfully allowed Li Ze to get a chance outside the three-point line. Noticing that the Mavericks' defense could not keep up in time, he did not hesitate to make an emergency stop jumper from outside the three-point line.
"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.
"shush"
The audience in the American Airlines Center arena immediately booed loudly, and it was Li Ze's damn three-pointer again!
"Li Ze's condition is very good! He hit a three-pointer in the opening game. The Mavericks' defense seems to be a little lax. They failed to squeeze through the screen quickly twice."
The host Ke Xiaofan was in a good mood when he saw Li Ze score a goal, and he was looking forward to the Thunder team quickly sweeping the Mavericks team.
The Mavericks sent out the baseline ball quickly. After Kidd dribbled half court, he quickly gave the ball to Dampier at the free throw line. Green's defense, after two hits, he immediately turned over and shot a jumper.
"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.
The Thunder's offensive rhythm is also fast. Durant used Kostic's cover to receive a pass from the tortoise at the elbow on the right side of the free throw line. Dribbles behind the left hand and quickly steps back for a jump shot.
"Shua" two-pointer hit easily.
Li Ze has been keenly aware that the Mavericks are much less aggressive on the defensive end. It seems that the game in G3 has hit them hard.
The Thunder's defense will not be slack, and the Thunder Warriors must be playing harder and harder. At this time, the Thunder simply defended a 23 zone defense. There was an open chance on the left.
Caron Butler ignored Li Ze's defense and made a quick shot from outside the three-point line.
"Bang" hit an iron with anger.
The long rebound fell into the hands of Li Ze. After receiving the rebound, he noticed that the turtle was about to go down. He immediately threw the ball vigorously and threw the ball directly to the frontcourt. Accelerate, take off quickly, and smash the tomahawk style with full power!
"Kang" converted dunks successfully.
Caron Butler was so depressed that he was dying. It was a good outside shooting opportunity, but he hit the iron again, especially when he saw Li Ze's curious expression, the anger in his heart was even stronger.
The Mavericks attacked again, and this time they stopped playing tricks. They honestly gave the ball to Nowitzki at the left elbow of the free throw line, and Marion cut away Durant's defense again.
This time, Nowitzki quickly released the ball with his left hand and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball. He noticed Krstic's help defense and immediately passed inside to Dampier. The latter caught the ball and put it under the basket successfully.
"Oh ah!"
The audience at the American Airlines Center Arena immediately cheered for the home team's goal, and the atmosphere finally recovered a bit.
Carlisle on the sidelines made a gesture to the players this time, indicating that this defensive round is to defend a zone defense. After the tortoise dribbled through halftime, he naturally discovered the defensive changes of the Mavericks. After making a gesture to Jeff Green , the latter immediately ran to the bottom corner on the right.
At the same time, Krstic moved in the direction of Li Ze. Caron Butler noticed the position of the Thunder players, and a bad premonition came again in his heart. Sure enough, after seeing Li Ze receiving the ball, Krstic came again. The position to the right of Li Ze.
At this time, Li Ze noticed that Caron Butler's defense quickly posted up, holding the ball in his right hand and pretending to run a pick-and-roll on the right, and noticed that Dampier's help defense also moved accordingly, suddenly dribbled the ball behind his back, and quickly in and out with his left hand , so that Caron Butler froze in place.
Then he accelerated with all his strength, and just one step past the three-point line, he immediately stopped and shot a jumper.
"唰" made a two-pointer and made a steady hit.
".shh"
The boos at the American Airlines Center arena have become exhausted. Such a scene is simply a nightmare for the fans. When the nightmare happened again in front of their eyes, all the fans and Caron Butler had the same thought in their hearts. idea:
"Tired. Hurry up and destroy it!"
However, in the next few minutes, Li Ze did not choose to take a lot of shots. In the case of the downwind ball, his first task was of course to mobilize his teammates. Quickly feed the cake.
Facing the Thunder's zone defense, after passing the ball continuously from the outside, Kidd shot a cold arrow at the top of the arc, hit a three-pointer steadily, and quickly sent the bottom line. In halftime, he easily got rid of Kidd with a simple change from front to back.
Accelerated straight to the inside, noticed Nowitzki's retraction defense, and quickly passed the ball to Jeff Green on the outside. The Mavericks' defense quickly rotated, while the Thunder continued to pass the ball on the outside.
When Li Ze received the ball on the left side of the three-point line, he exerted force with his feet, crossed and broke through Caron Butler's defense directly, Dampier had no choice but to help defend again, and saw Li Ze's left hand in progress With a flick of the wrist, he hit the ground and passed the ball accurately to find Krstic who was running down.
After catching the ball, Krstic was extremely tough. He rushed forward with two big strides, exerted all his strength, and made a powerful one-arm dunk!
"Kang" successfully ate the cake under the basket.
"The Thunder are blooming a little bit. The Mavericks still have to defend the zone. Man-to-man defense really can't limit Li Ze. If the game continues like this, the Thunder will definitely play better and better!"
Ma Jian saw that the Thunder's role players were also starting to play, and felt that the overall situation was settled. In this game, perhaps he could witness the Thunder's advancement to the Western Conference Finals.
Coach Brooks also seemed a little excited standing on the sidelines. In the new season, he brought a team that won 23 wins last season to the Western Conference Finals. I think the game is settled.
On the field, Li Ze was already enjoying the game, constantly dismembering the Mavericks' defense.
No matter who the defender in front of him is, no matter what kind of defense the opponent uses, he can accurately find the weakness of the opponent. This intuition fascinates him, and Li Ze feels as if he has entered the Zone.
Under Li Ze's constant control of the ball, the Thunder played a smooth offense, which completely drained the audience in the American Airlines Center arena. Is this really the playoffs?
当第1节比赛还剩2分12秒时，李泽被索夫洛萨换下，首节他轻松拿到了5分3篮板4助攻，而雷霆队此时也领先了5分。
Just as Li Ze sat on the bench, Ibaka quickly handed over the water bottle, Meno, the guardian of the drinking fountain, handed over the towel, and Byron in the atmosphere group gave the coat. The outstanding performance in the playoffs also made Li Ze change clothes. The status in the room has risen again, he is the golden thigh of the thunder team!
"Thanks, guys, maybe we are really going to advance in this game. The Mavericks' defensive willingness is obviously not as good as in previous games."
Li Ze simply took a sip of water, wiped his sweat and spoke easily.
"I hope the coach will let us experience the Western Conference semifinals. This is really cool! We are going to the Western Conference Finals!"
The big man Byron has always been a member of the team's atmosphere group. At this time, he really wants to play to feel the atmosphere of the Western Conference semifinals.
"Looking at the situation in the fourth quarter, I think we have a chance to play a wave and directly establish the victory. You can prepare in advance, come on!"
Byron was also a little excited when he heard Li Ze's words. If he could play, he would have more bragging rights in the future.
At the end of the first quarter, at 1:36, the away Thunder team led by 30 points. Coach Carlisle saw the situation on the field and felt that the general situation was over. In the second quarter, during the rotation stage, he directly gave up the treatment and put it on again. 6 defenders and Nowitzki's lineup.
The Thunder still have 5 strikers. When Li Ze saw the Mavericks' 4 guards, he immediately knew that Carlisle's head coach was a bit broken.
Jason Terry also let go of the round directly after he came on the field. He attacked for the first time in the second quarter and played a high pick-and-roll with Nowitzki at a distance from the three-point line. Pretend to break through with the ball, then pull back quickly, step back from outside the three-point line and make a jump shot.
"Bang" hit an iron with anger.
The Changlan cricket was picked up by Li Ze again, and the Mavericks retreated quickly. Li Ze slowly dribbled through the half court. Seeing the 4 small guards of the Mavericks, he felt a little speechless. Accelerate the breakthrough.
Kidd and Caron Butler quickly double-teamed one after the other. Li Ze noticed the opponent's defensive movement. Before the double-team was formed, a covert ground pass was sent directly to Iraq at the free throw line. Bacca, the latter catches the ball and makes a mid-range jumper.
"Shua" two-pointer hit steadily.
".shh"
The audience in the American Airlines Center arena no longer wanted to make false noises. The home team was completely beaten by the Thunder. There is no miracle!
Li Ze also realized the strategy of Carlisle's head coach. He didn't give himself a chance to make a move and let the Thunder's role players. Maybe this strategy worked well before, but tonight the Thunder's downwind warriors once again showed their strength!
Pick-and-roll shots, cuts to the basket, under Li Ze's tandem, Ibaka, Sefoloza, Jeff Green, and Collison can all score. There is no way to fight back, after all, the height gap is a bit big.
After playing for more than two minutes, the head coach Carlisle immediately requested a timeout. He was 10 points behind, and he had to get back the main force in advance.
In the rest of the second quarter, Li Ze still firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, frequently assisting Durant and Guigui to score.
Facing the Mavericks' man-to-man defense, Li Ze and Durant's partial 2-on-2 made Marion and Caron Butler feel depressed and unable to defend
At the end of halftime, at 70:58, the audience in the American Airlines Center Arena completely lost their enthusiasm at this time. Everyone even looked forward to the early end of the game. It was too painful!
During the half-time break, Li Ze couldn't help being a bit taken aback when he saw his technical statistics, 10 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, well, he suddenly had a bold idea
Looking at the smiling tortoise, Li Ze immediately handed the technical statistics sheet to the other party, and at the same time raised an eyebrow at the tortoise, and then everyone circulated it, and everyone laughed, indicating that we will take this job!
After the start of the second half, card forward Krstic took the lead to go online and helped Li Ze get enough rebounds. Then the brave Jeff Green hit another long shot from the outside. After that, Durant cut without the ball and successfully let Li Ze's Assists reached 9 times.
At this time, the members of the Mavericks team realized that it was a crime!You fucking got a triple-double in the Western Conference semifinals?
But at this time, it was too late to realize that Li Ze was facing the defense of Caron Butler, with his left hand in and out outside the three-point line, and quickly reflected the change of direction. As soon as he moved, Li Ze, who was on the move, threw the ball.
After receiving the ball from the basket, Krstic succeeded in dunking with both hands and scored 10 assists!
Li Ze achieved a triple-double and immediately gave thumbs up to his teammates. At this time, the point difference on the court had reached 16 points. In the following game, Li Ze was replaced by the head coach Brooks after scoring 4 points. The coaching staff asked Protect Li Ze.
14 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, and no turnovers. This is the data that Li Ze handed over in G4 of the Western Conference semifinals.
Coach Carlisle also slowly replaced the main players at this time. When Nowitzki left the field, the audience at the American Airlines Center Arena immediately gave the warmest applause to their superstar.
The Western Conference semifinals were swept out, which was an unacceptable result for Nowitzki. Sitting on the bench and directly covering his head with a towel, Nowitzki appeared extremely silent.
The water fountain guardians and the atmosphere team of the Thunder team are very happy, everyone can finally experience the Western Conference semifinals!
In the fourth quarter of the game, the substitute lineups of both sides played extremely hard, and the scene was very lively, but the audience in the American Airlines Center Arena had no intention of watching the game, and they only hoped that the game would end as soon as possible.
The game time ran out quickly, and in the end, at 118:104, the Thunder won Game 4 on the road and swept the Mavericks 4:0!
The humiliating sweep also allowed the Mavericks players to simply shake hands and then quickly walk back to the player channel, while everyone in the Thunder team began to celebrate loudly.
"Cool! We're in the Western Conference Finals!"
"I want to go back to Oklahoma City right away! The fans must be so happy!"
"We must hold more parties when we go back. This is really a fantastic season!"
Li Ze was also very happy at this time, and kept hugging and complimenting his teammates. Although he was a little sorry for Nowitzki, after all, there was only one winner, and he didn't want to be a loser. Thinking of his opponents in the Western Conference Finals, he was silent in his heart bless:
"Come on, the Suns."

(End of this chapter)
When there are 2.3 seconds left in the game, the world of Slam Dunk will definitely give the audience a memory kill, and they will never stop until they play for 20 minutes. In the world of Heizi's basketball, the big guys can enter the zone together in 2.3 seconds , fight 300 rounds
In an NBA game, 2.3 seconds is enough for the Mavericks to complete a lore. When Li Ze hit the three-pointer before the end, the coach Brooks on the sidelines and the atmosphere on the bench were all crazy Congratulations, this script exceeded all expectations.
Coach Carlisle used the last timeout of the game, and the Mavericks still had a glimmer of life. Whether it was a two-pointer or a three-pointer, as long as the ball was thrown into the basket, tonight's victory still belonged to them.
The referee had already arrived at the technical stage at this time, and everyone was constantly watching the replay to see if they needed to return the watch. After all, the moment just now was too chaotic, and the court was in chaos, and the three-pointer suddenly hit in.
On the other side of the ocean, in the CCTV studio, host Yang Jian and guest Yang Yi also calmed down their excitement, and then said:
"I'm really sorry, I was too excited just now, the voice was a little louder, and there are 2.3 seconds left in the game, Li Ze is a quasi lore! The Mavericks still have a chance!"
"Yang Yi, do you think the Mavericks can seize the last 2.3 seconds? If the Mavericks lose this game at home, then there will be no suspense in this round of the series. No team can fall behind 0:3 Under the circumstances, with 4 wins in a row, the Thunder have already put one foot on the floor of the Western Conference Finals!"
After Yang Yi heard the words of the host Yang Jian, he immediately responded:
"Anything is possible! 2.3 seconds is enough time for the Mavericks to complete a beautiful sideline ball, and the Thunder are difficult to defend. The opponent who fouls will stand on the free throw line. Both two-pointers and three-pointers have to be defended. At this time, we must Hell, throw it in the Mavericks and bring it back to life!"
The spectators at the American Airlines Center arena are clasping their fists and praying for a miracle to happen to the Mavericks. The team owner Cuban under the basketball stand also stands up at this moment. In two seconds, the team will be determined. Fate, he couldn't sit still.
On the bench of the Mavericks, head coach Carlisle quickly drew the sideline tactics that had been prepared, and the assistant coach also reminded everyone to keep calm:
"Dampier, Haywood, you two screens for Dirk in the right paint at the same time, Butler, you're at the top of the key, pull Lee out of the three-point line, screen cuts guys, big screen Action, the referee will not call a foul, we have enough time to shoot!"
In the final stage, head coach Carlisle still chose to trust the veteran. He replaced Marion with Dampier again, and used two centers to cover Nowitzki. In the final stage, the Mavericks at home will definitely not be whistled by the referee. Foul, bold screen is right
As for the Thunder, Coach Brooks finally calmed down his excitement, and kept reminding his players loudly:
"Don't foul, guys! Russell, you interfere with the serve in front, Kevin, Green, Ibaka, keep an eye on your defender, Kayce, you have to pay attention to Butler's movement, prevent the opponent from suddenly cutting to the basket, Stay focused, we're only 2.3 seconds away from victory!"
Although the Mavericks only had a short timeout of 20 seconds, because the referee reviewed the situation on the court, the timeout was longer than expected, and the uniform team on the Thunder team had already begun to put pressure on the technical table , indicating that the referee has timed out!
All the Mavericks fans at the scene got up to watch the game, and everyone was looking forward to a miracle. At this time, the scene suddenly became a little quiet, and all the noisy voices almost disappeared.
Li Ze's thoughts at this moment are just to keep an eye on Caron Butler, who is facing up. At the final stage of the game, he has already played by instinct. Such a game with ups and downs really doesn't allow him to think too much.
"squeak"
The whistle sounded, and Kidd, who was standing on the sideline, took over the basketball from the referee. Turtle was right in front of him raising his hands, bouncing and jumping, trying to interfere with the serve, while the players at the other end of the court were already crowded together. It's a mess.
Dampier and Haywood played a role. Under the almost mobile pick-and-roll pull of the two, Nowitzki instantly got rid of the entanglement of Jeff Green and Ibaka.
When Nowitzki came to the left waist to receive Kidd's pass, Durant's defense also chased him, with a light touch, completely shaking the defense, and then quickly shot from the middle distance.
When the ball was in the air, the indicator light for the end game was already on. Everyone in the American Airlines Center Arena was staring at the basketball in the air. For the first time, Li Ze felt that two seconds were so long.
"Bang bang."
When the ball hit the back edge of the rim, it seemed to fall into the rim again, but in the end, the basketball still knocked out of the rim, and in the next second, two sounds erupted in the American Airlines Center arena.
"Ah!!" "Oh!!"
"Shot! No. Didn't score! There is no miracle! Nowitzki missed the shot. With Li Ze's quasi-lore, 116:115, the Thunder won Game 3 in the away game! The Western Conference finals are already beckoning to them! "
The host Yang Jian raised his volume again and loudly announced the result of the competition.
At this time, everyone in the Thunder team flocked to Li Ze again, the joy of victory welled up in their hearts, everyone hugged and screamed, and the audience on the scene let out a huge exclamation, and then began to curse:
"Fucker! That rebound fouled, shitty referee!"
"Shet! You stole Dallas' victory!"
"Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
On the sidelines, a 10-year-old blond boy hugged his father and cried directly. Everyone knows what it means to be behind 0:3. As for the miracle of winning 4 games in a row, it may only appear in a dream .
Li Ze wanted to pretend to be an X, but he was thrown down again by Guigui. This guy did not look at him at all. Li Ze, who fell on the ground, was a big man at this time. Although the joy of victory welled up in his heart, he still Silently spit out a slot in my heart:
"I just want to pretend to be X quietly, why is it so difficult."
The May Day holiday and the Western Conference semifinals brought more attention to the game between the Thunder and the Mavericks than ever before, and Li Ze's quasi-lore made all the fans in front of the TV shout loudly.
It's just that when everyone wanted to log in to the Hupu forum and give a good blow about Li Ze, they found that the webpage couldn't be opened at all. In desperation, the fans turned to Sina Weibo and wanted to leave a message under Li Ze's personal Weibo, but found that Same here
This situation lasted for more than 10 minutes before the fans logged in to Hupu again, but at this time everyone’s first reaction was to spray spam websites, and the server was crashed by a game. never seen it.
"Garbage tigers, it will be cold sooner or later! Such a wonderful game, your server crashed after the game, can you still let the fans watch the game well?"
"Hurry up and buy some servers, this experience is too bad, Li Zeniu X, the Thunder team won in a daze, this game really stunned me."
"Li Ze is really amazing! 34 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 turnover and 2 steals. Is this a rookie? This is a superstar. In the Western Conference semifinals, he shot the Mavericks. I can brag about this situation for the rest of my life!"
"I'm stupid, 19 of 13, including 7 of 5 three-pointers, 4 of 3 free throws, and the final lore, really kneeling for me! Li Zeniu X, Thunder champion!"
"Nowitzki is too miserable. This round of the series may be swept by the Thunder! The gentleman swept the Spurs in the first round, and then swept the Mavericks in the semifinals. Now the two teams must be tied. After the Mavericks, the players went straight away Went back to the locker room, didn't even shake hands."
"Next season will be interesting. The Western Conference playoffs will definitely be these teams. Maybe everyone will meet again. I'm already looking forward to it. Is the theme of the NBA's next season revenge?"
In the locker room of the visiting team after the game, everyone on the Thunder team was all smiling. They were about to enter the Western Conference Finals, and Durant was even more excited.
Agent Kleiman told him that if he can really reach the Western Conference finals, Nike's 10-year contract of 3 million US dollars will almost be stable, and the additional clauses will be easier, that is [-] million US dollars!When Durant thought of those beautiful green knives, he was excited to dance with the turtle.
Everyone in the Thunder team came over and gave Li Ze an excited high-five. After Coach Brooks came to the locker room, he saw everyone excited and said loudly with a smile:
"Guys, we will have a day off tomorrow, but everyone should arrange their own time well. There is still G4 to play the day after tomorrow. This is an incredible game. Let's enjoy the victory!"
"Oh oh!!"
When Li Ze returned to the hotel to rest, he finally recovered from his excitement. He saw hundreds of unread text messages on his phone, and scratched his head helplessly. It seemed that he had to spend a lot of time replying to messages before going to bed. .
After all the text messages were answered, it was almost early morning. Thinking that there would be no training tomorrow, Li Ze happily swiped Twitter for a while, watched the crazy praise of Oklahoma City fans, and then fell asleep contentedly. .
In the dream training space, after exhaling from the control panel, Li Ze immediately saw the prompt in the achievement room. As expected, a new badge was produced for tonight's game.
Achievement Badge [Key Shooter]: 1/50
Improve the ability to score key goals at critical moments.
Achievement badge [long-range fixed-point shooter]: 2/50
Expands the range in which players can effectively shoot in-place [-]-pointers.
After entering the achievement room, Li Ze immediately checked the two bronze badges. The bonus effect of [Key Shooter] is simple and rough, while [Long-range Fixed-point Shooter] is very practical. Appropriately adding some long-range shots will help him better Get out of the defense.
It's just that when he thought about the upgrade of the badge, Li Ze could only complain powerlessly:
"How to upgrade the badge in a three-quarter check-in game? After all, there may only be two or three critical moments in a season."
On May 5th, the media in America collectively praised the performance of Li Ze and LeBron James. In the semi-final match that ended last night, both of them played exceptionally well, and both led the team to victory. No need to go through the procedure, just start blowing!
In TNT's NBA 24-hour program, the scene of Li Zezhun's lore was repeatedly played. Last night, TNT's ace combination Kevin Harlan and Reggie Miller also served as commentators on the spot.
"Can you imagine the Dallas Mavericks going to be swept out by the Thunder? It's unbelievable. This game is really beyond our expectations. Guys, I think there is no suspense in this set of matchups."
After watching the replay, the host Ernie Johnson immediately said firmly to Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley beside him.
"This is really a crazy game. I think the head coaches of each team in the league will definitely not choose to fight against the Thunder after this game. Maybe we should pay more attention to three-pointers!"
After the game last night, Kenny Smith began to brag about Li Ze's performance, especially those 5 three-pointers, which were almost blown away by him.
"This game is really beyond our cognition. The Mavericks did not attack continuously in the low post, but shot more from the outside. Although Nowitzki scored 36 points again, he lost the game. I think Coach Carlisle's strategy is wrong, the Mavericks are playing too softly."
Charles Barkley still insists on his tough guy basketball theory. He always believes that the Mavericks should be crazy about the inside.
"Come on, man, you need to look at the Thunder's perimeter firepower, Lee scored 34 points, Durant also scored 28 points, plus Russell's 22 points, if the Mavericks don't respond in a row on the perimeter , The game may have ended long ago, and the Thunder really created a new style of play."
Host Ernie Johnson immediately refuted Barkley's point of view.
"OK! Let's talk about this issue later. There was another game last night. In G3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Cavaliers beat the Celtics 124:95 in the away game. LeBron James scored 22 of 14. To 38 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal and 1 turnover, we must also praise James for his performance!"
Kenny Smith once again brought the topic to the Eastern Conference semifinals, and James was also the hot spot last night!
"LeBron James showed his dominance. It is said that the North Shore Garden Arena was silent last night. After this game, the Cavaliers regained the initiative again. If they get to the battle of Tianwangshan, they will return to Cliff Lan, this is definitely good news for the Cavaliers!"
Charles Barkley immediately praised James, winning an away game is not an easy task.
"Guys, in the two games last night, who do you think Lee or James played better? Now many fans are discussing this issue. What do you want to say about this?"
Moderator Ernie Johnson once again raised a question of making things happen.
"Kayce is a rookie, it's not fair to compare him to LeBron James right now, but just for last night's game, I'd take Kayce, he helped the Thunder's game-winning Mavericks, and it almost completely changed the game. He was the superstar last night!"
Kenny Smith continued to unswervingly brag about Li Ze, he has almost evolved into Li Ze's brainless bragging.
"I will pick LeBron James. I don't disrespect Dallas, but the Celtics are obviously a stronger opponent. Facing the performance of the Big Three, LeBron James performed even better. Saved the Cavaliers!"
"But after watching the game, you know that the Celtics were slow in the first quarter and only scored 17 points. This is the reason for their loss. James is very good, but last night's game, the Celtics Losing is only their own fault."
The host Ernie Johnson couldn't help but smile when he saw Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith arguing again. He was very good at the effect of the program.
On this night, the East and West semifinals started again. In the Eastern semifinals, there was still no suspense in the matchup between the Magic and the Eagles. At 105:75, the Magic beat the Eagles by 30 points in an away game.
Al Horford was completely deflated against Warcraft Howard, and Joe Johnson's overall defense was completely misfired against the Magic. The Eagles scored a total of 33 points in the first half. Such a scoring ability is naturally impossible to win.
In the Western Conference semifinals, the Suns returned to the home court and pulled back a victory. Facing the Lakers' two-tower lineup, head coach Gentry directly turned the team's defense into a zone defense. Although Kobe Bryant scored 36 Points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists, but 5 turnovers, also shows that the Suns' defense has worked.
At 109:118, the united Suns defended their home court, still retaining the suspense of this round of the series.
And everyone on the Thunder team who was resting naturally also watched the game. The Suns' zone defense greatly inspired Coach Brooks and the coaching staff. After all, they have already stepped on the floor of the Western Conference Finals. Time to think about the next round of opponents.
"Kobe Bryant is still at his peak, facing the Suns' pincer defense, he played so efficiently."
Seeing Kobe's performance, Guigui couldn't help sighing, that kind of unreasonable shooting will definitely destroy the defender's psychology.
"But the Suns still won. Pau Gasol was great. Bynum was completely restrained. This guy usually brags that he is the No. [-] center in the Western Conference. Look at his shitty performance this time." , haha, I really want to mock him on Twitter!"
Durant has always been uncomfortable with the arrogant appearance of some Lakers players. He was very happy when the Suns won.
"Artest on the perimeter is the key. The Suns' zone defense also allowed the Lakers to get a lot of three-pointers. However, 32 of 9 shots and a 28% three-pointer percentage cannot support the Lakers. Winning, it's similar to our last game."
When Li Ze saw the technical statistics after the game, he immediately understood the Suns' defensive strategy. In the case of strictly guarding against Kobe, they reduced their defense on the flanks. Obviously, Coach Gentry made the right bet. Outside line, failed to give a response.
"Don't worry! Kayce, tomorrow night's game, I will hit the ball in response. We will completely kill the Mavericks from beyond the three-point line. Haha, we are about to enter the Western Conference finals!"
With a big score of 3:0, Jeff Green has let go of himself at this time, and there is no pressure at all. In the case of a big tailwind, Li Ze also believes that his teammates will fight harder and harder.
"Take a good rest, boys! Tomorrow night we will try our best to win the game. If we can end this round of the series early, we will have enough rest time. Just keep calm. We have completed the task of the road trip .”
Coach Brooks immediately reassured the players. Now the team's primary goal is to keep the main players healthy. The coaching staff don't want to see players suddenly injured before the Western Conference Finals.
"Don't worry, coach!"
"No problem, we'll sweep the Mavericks!"
"The Oklahoma City fans must love us, I can't wait to go home!"
On May 5th, G9, the semifinals of the Eastern and Western Conferences, is about to start. For all Oklahoma City fans, everyone has begun to fantasize about sweeping their opponents and entering the Western Conference Finals.
But the fans of the Mavericks felt extremely painful. G3 was lore and lost, and they may face a sweeping scene tonight. This made the fans a little depressed. They fell behind 0:3. More on this game tonight It's probably Honorable Mention.
Coach Carlisle simply comforted his players during the afternoon training. At this time, chicken soup for the soul is no longer working. Everyone has been in the league for many years. What does it mean to be behind 0:3? clear.
Dirk Nowitzki has been doing shooting training silently. In this round of the series, he has given his all, but the lore missed in the last game still made him feel guilty, and he had obviously passed Defensive, but misses in the best position
Veteran Kidd simply did some restorative training. Of course, he knows that the overall situation of this round of the series has been decided. At the end of his career, he only wants to chase the championship. However, it seems that there are still many obstacles on the way to the championship. The west is really getting more and more volume.
Caron Butler looked depressed, and he couldn't get up in training. The NBA is actually very cruel. A poor performance in the playoffs will definitely affect the next contract. Obviously, in the matchup with Li Ze, Caron - butler devalued himself
This is the same as George Hill's treatment in the Spurs series. As long as he plays against Li Ze, there is basically no good fruit to eat. Caron Bart is already thinking about where he will go next season. , he knew very well in his heart that the Mavericks would most likely not keep him.
Time flies, American Airlines Center Arena, when the team is about to be eliminated, Dallas fans still choose to come to the scene to support the team. After all, it is a team that has experienced Black 8, and the fans are relatively strong.
It's just that compared to the atmosphere of the last game, the arena is much quieter. Although everyone is wearing white cheering T-shirts, they all know in their hearts that tonight is the battle of honor.
On the other side of the ocean, today is the day to resume work, which makes the game between the Thunder and the Mavericks much less interesting.
However, for many student parties, this did not affect them secretly watching the text live broadcast, and many who had no class in the morning even came to Sina Sports early. Today, it is possible to witness the Thunder team enter the Western Conference Finals!The game is a must watch!
Before the game, the host Ke Xiaofan and the guest Ma Jian reviewed the situation of the last game together, especially Li Ze’s quasi-lore, which was watched several times by everyone. Throw the topic:
"I don't mean to disrespect the Mavericks, but now we can also imagine the Thunder's opponents after entering the Western Conference Finals. Director Ma, which team do you think is more beneficial to the Thunder to advance, the Lakers or the Suns?"
"Of course it is the Suns. Although the Suns have Stoudemire on the inside, it is actually difficult to limit the performance of the Thunder's trio in terms of defense on the outside. Moreover, Steve Nash, Grant Schiller Er is already a veteran player, and now he has some problems with his physical fitness."
In fact, Ma Jian also hopes that the Suns can advance. After all, if they really want to meet the Lakers, it can be expected that Gasol will definitely not be restricted. In addition, Kobe Bryant and Ron - Artest completely restrained the Thunder in the lineup.
"Judging from the record of the regular season, the Thunder did not lose to the Lakers, but the gap in experience between the two sides cannot be made up. I also hope that the Suns can advance. Let's work harder at the next home court. In today's game, Ma Guidance, do you think the Thunder have completed the sweep?"
Host Ke Xiaofan once again brought the topic back to tonight's game.
"I think the Mavericks should try their best to win at home, and the players don't want to disappoint the fans, but there is another situation that may happen. The big score is 0:3 behind, and some players' state may plummet. Maybe the suspense will be lost at halftime."
"Thank you for the comments from Director Ma. The game is about to start. Judging from the starting rosters from the front, the two teams still maintain the rotation lineup of the previous game. Let's switch the screen to the front first!"
The thunder in the player tunnel is full of people. It can be clearly felt that the atmosphere in the American Airlines Center Arena is far worse than the previous game. The audience is no longer enthusiastic and shouting. Although the DJ on the scene is working hard to drive the atmosphere, the big score is behind , It still makes the fans a little bit unmotivated.
"Maybe we will advance tonight. We will sweep our opponents in the semifinals. This is a good achievement. In the Western Conference finals, the attention has risen to a new level. Maybe next season we will have more live broadcasts across the United States!"
Durant has always expected that he will receive more attention, and he is extremely excited when he thinks that he will stand on the stage of the Western Conference Finals soon.
"I will mobilize all my relatives and friends and let them all come to see my Western Conference Finals. I think I can boast about my experience this season, and my son will definitely be proud of me!"
Many players in the NBA will never have such an experience in their lifetime, and Jeff Green feels that he is already floating.
"Bro, you haven't even settled on a girlfriend, and you think of your son so soon? We are still young, and the championship is our goal. The Western Conference Finals are just the beginning. Believe me, this is just the beginning!"
Li Ze calmly pretended to be an X. Everyone in the Thunder team was speechless after hearing his words, but they were powerless to refute. After all, according to Li Ze's ability, there is nothing wrong with competing for the championship.
"Yes, we will definitely win the championship. We are the youngest team in the league. The future is definitely ours! Tonight I will sweep the Mavericks. I want to return to Oklahoma City to enjoy the victory. Have a baking party, Nina will definitely like it very much!"
The nervous tortoise didn't notice Li Ze's act of pretending to be X, and followed Li Ze's words to imagine the future. When everyone heard that there was another party in Oklahoma City, everyone immediately became energetic. Although the tortoise organized The activities are relatively plain, but the atmosphere is definitely not worth mentioning.
"Cool! Sweep the Mavericks! Go home and party!"
"Ow!!"
After all the players entered the field, the two sides conducted the final warm-up before the game. Li Ze keenly noticed that Caron Butler was no longer confronting him. It seemed that the opponent was indeed convinced by him.
During the warm-up phase, everyone on the Thunder team had a relaxed and happy expression on their faces, while everyone on the Mavericks team looked serious. The home game of honor is not easy to play. If they lose again, the Dallas fans Definitely have to fry the pan!
When the referee signaled the players from both sides to come to the center of the field, everyone simply greeted each other. Kostic and Dampier stood in the middle circle and prepared to jump the ball. The DJ on the scene began to lead everyone to cheer for the home team.
"Let" go Mavs! Let'go Mavs! Let'go Mavs! "
Despite the sound of cheering on the scene, Krstic performed exceptionally bravely, and easily moved the ball to the Thunder team. Turtle controlled the ball in front and back, immediately made an offensive gesture to his teammates, and then dribbled halfway field.
The Mavericks did not choose zone defense at the beginning. After all, in the last game, they were shot by the outside line of the Thunder. At this time, Li Ze was standing near the paint area on the baseline and noticed that the turtle and Kostic in the distance were fighting. After a pick-and-roll, start immediately.
Jeff Green made a screen for Li Ze at this time, successfully delaying the entanglement of Caron Butler. When Li Ze received the pass from the turtle, Krstic set a screen near the free throw line again, and the turtle The turtle moves to the left to make room
And two consecutive screens successfully allowed Li Ze to get a chance outside the three-point line. Noticing that the Mavericks' defense could not keep up in time, he did not hesitate to make an emergency stop jumper from outside the three-point line.
"Shua" three-pointer hollow into the net.
"shush"
The audience in the American Airlines Center arena immediately booed loudly, and it was Li Ze's damn three-pointer again!
"Li Ze's condition is very good! He hit a three-pointer in the opening game. The Mavericks' defense seems to be a little lax. They failed to squeeze through the screen quickly twice."
The host Ke Xiaofan was in a good mood when he saw Li Ze score a goal, and he was looking forward to the Thunder team quickly sweeping the Mavericks team.
The Mavericks sent out the baseline ball quickly. After Kidd dribbled half court, he quickly gave the ball to Dampier at the free throw line. Green's defense, after two hits, he immediately turned over and shot a jumper.
"唰" made a steady hit in the middle distance.
The Thunder's offensive rhythm is also fast. Durant used Kostic's cover to receive a pass from the tortoise at the elbow on the right side of the free throw line. Dribbles behind the left hand and quickly steps back for a jump shot.
"Shua" two-pointer hit easily.
Li Ze has been keenly aware that the Mavericks are much less aggressive on the defensive end. It seems that the game in G3 has hit them hard.
The Thunder's defense will not be slack, and the Thunder Warriors must be playing harder and harder. At this time, the Thunder simply defended a 23 zone defense. There was an open chance on the left.
Caron Butler ignored Li Ze's defense and made a quick shot from outside the three-point line.
"Bang" hit an iron with anger.
The long rebound fell into the hands of Li Ze. After receiving the rebound, he noticed that the turtle was about to go down. He immediately threw the ball vigorously and threw the ball directly to the frontcourt. Accelerate, take off quickly, and smash the tomahawk style with full power!
"Kang" converted dunks successfully.
Caron Butler was so depressed that he was dying. It was a good outside shooting opportunity, but he hit the iron again, especially when he saw Li Ze's curious expression, the anger in his heart was even stronger.
The Mavericks attacked again, and this time they stopped playing tricks. They honestly gave the ball to Nowitzki at the left elbow of the free throw line, and Marion cut away Durant's defense again.
This time, Nowitzki quickly released the ball with his left hand and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball. He noticed Krstic's help defense and immediately passed inside to Dampier. The latter caught the ball and put it under the basket successfully.
"Oh ah!"
The audience at the American Airlines Center Arena immediately cheered for the home team's goal, and the atmosphere finally recovered a bit.
Carlisle on the sidelines made a gesture to the players this time, indicating that this defensive round is to defend a zone defense. After the tortoise dribbled through halftime, he naturally discovered the defensive changes of the Mavericks. After making a gesture to Jeff Green , the latter immediately ran to the bottom corner on the right.
At the same time, Krstic moved in the direction of Li Ze. Caron Butler noticed the position of the Thunder players, and a bad premonition came again in his heart. Sure enough, after seeing Li Ze receiving the ball, Krstic came again. The position to the right of Li Ze.
At this time, Li Ze noticed that Caron Butler's defense quickly posted up, holding the ball in his right hand and pretending to run a pick-and-roll on the right, and noticed that Dampier's help defense also moved accordingly, suddenly dribbled the ball behind his back, and quickly in and out with his left hand , so that Caron Butler froze in place.
Then he accelerated with all his strength, and just one step past the three-point line, he immediately stopped and shot a jumper.
"唰" made a two-pointer and made a steady hit.
".shh"
The boos at the American Airlines Center arena have become exhausted. Such a scene is simply a nightmare for the fans. When the nightmare happened again in front of their eyes, all the fans and Caron Butler had the same thought in their hearts. idea:
"Tired. Hurry up and destroy it!"
However, in the next few minutes, Li Ze did not choose to take a lot of shots. In the case of the downwind ball, his first task was of course to mobilize his teammates. Quickly feed the cake.
Facing the Thunder's zone defense, after passing the ball continuously from the outside, Kidd shot a cold arrow at the top of the arc, hit a three-pointer steadily, and quickly sent the bottom line. In halftime, he easily got rid of Kidd with a simple change from front to back.
Accelerated straight to the inside, noticed Nowitzki's retraction defense, and quickly passed the ball to Jeff Green on the outside. The Mavericks' defense quickly rotated, while the Thunder continued to pass the ball on the outside.
When Li Ze received the ball on the left side of the three-point line, he exerted force with his feet, crossed and broke through Caron Butler's defense directly, Dampier had no choice but to help defend again, and saw Li Ze's left hand in progress With a flick of the wrist, he hit the ground and passed the ball accurately to find Krstic who was running down.

"Kang" successfully ate the cake under the basket.
"The Thunder are blooming a little bit. The Mavericks still have to defend the zone. Man-to-man defense really can't limit Li Ze. If the game continues like this, the Thunder will definitely play better and better!"
Ma Jian saw that the Thunder's role players were also starting to play, and felt that the overall situation was settled. In this game, perhaps he could witness the Thunder's advancement to the Western Conference Finals.
Coach Brooks also seemed a little excited standing on the sidelines. In the new season, he brought a team that won 23 wins last season to the Western Conference Finals. I think the game is settled.
On the field, Li Ze was already enjoying the game, constantly dismembering the Mavericks' defense.
No matter who the defender in front of him is, no matter what kind of defense the opponent uses, he can accurately find the weakness of the opponent. This intuition fascinates him, and Li Ze feels as if he has entered the Zone.

The outstanding performance in the playoffs also made Li Ze change clothes. The status in the room has risen again, he is the golden thigh of the thunder team!
"Thanks, guys, maybe we are really going to advance in this game. The Mavericks' defensive willingness is obviously not as good as in previous games."
Li Ze simply took a sip of water, wiped his sweat and spoke easily.
"I hope the coach will let us experience the Western Conference semifinals. This is really cool! We are going to the Western Conference Finals!"
The big man Byron has always been a member of the team's atmosphere group. At this time, he really wants to play to feel the atmosphere of the Western Conference semifinals.
"Looking at the situation in the fourth quarter, I think we have a chance to play a wave and directly establish the victory. You can prepare in advance, come on!"
Byron was also a little excited when he heard Li Ze's words. If he could play, he would have more bragging rights in the future.

In the second quarter, during the rotation stage, he directly gave up the treatment and put it on again. 6 defenders and Nowitzki's lineup.

Jason Terry also let go of the round directly after he came on the field. He attacked for the first time in the second quarter and played a high pick-and-roll with Nowitzki at a distance from the three-point line.

"Bang" hit an iron with anger.
The Changlan cricket was picked up by Li Ze again, and the Mavericks retreated quickly. Li Ze slowly dribbled through the half court. Seeing the 4 small guards of the Mavericks, he felt a little speechless. Accelerate the breakthrough.

"Shua" two-pointer hit steadily.
".shh"
The audience in the American Airlines Center arena no longer wanted to make false noises. The home team was completely beaten by the Thunder. There is no miracle!
Li Ze also realized the strategy of Carlisle's head coach. He didn't give himself a chance to make a move and let the Thunder's role players. Maybe this strategy worked well before, but tonight the Thunder's downwind warriors once again showed their strength!
Pick-and-roll shots, cuts to the basket, under Li Ze's tandem, Ibaka, Sefoloza, Jeff Green, and Collison can all score. There is no way to fight back, after all, the height gap is a bit big.
After playing for more than two minutes, the head coach Carlisle immediately requested a timeout. He was 10 points behind, and he had to get back the main force in advance.
In the rest of the second quarter, Li Ze still firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, frequently assisting Durant and Guigui to score.
Facing the Mavericks' man-to-man defense, Li Ze and Durant's partial 2-on-2 made Marion and Caron Butler feel depressed and unable to defend

After receiving the ball from the basket, Krstic succeeded in dunking with both hands and scored 10 assists!

Coach Carlisle also slowly replaced the main players at this time. When Nowitzki left the field, the audience at the American Airlines Center Arena immediately gave the warmest applause to their superstar.
The Western Conference semifinals were swept out, which was an unacceptable result for Nowitzki. Sitting on the bench and directly covering his head with a towel, Nowitzki appeared extremely silent.
The water fountain guardians and the atmosphere team of the Thunder team are very happy, everyone can finally experience the Western Conference semifinals!
