The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 30 Death Comes
The Bulls are in trouble.

Even if Rose is replaced, except for Rose scoring a "2+1" in the opening game, there is nothing to achieve.

The Thunder took the opportunity to score consecutively. After Vuitton connected, Rose was blocked by Li Pu for a layup. The Thunder counterattacked again. Harden assisted Green for a layup and chased the score to 87:86. There is only 1 point left.

More importantly, this is what the Thunder did without Durant.

Right now, Durant is already squatting on the sidelines and ready to play at any time. If Durant plays again, the situation of the Bulls will be even worse.

It was the Bulls' turn to attack again. Although Rose was expressionless, he was still a little more anxious.

He has not scored in two consecutive rounds. If he does not score in this round, he will probably be overtaken by the Thunder.

The Bulls have always been in the lead in this game, and if they are overtaken by the Thunder at the end of the game, it will be even more difficult for the Bulls to turn the score back.

This goal must be scored!

This time, Rose did not call a pick-and-roll, because the previous two pick-and-roll attacks were resolved by the Thunder.

Westbrook's single defense ability is still there, after all, the original template was called Tony Allen.

However, in a basketball game, after all, the offensive player holds the initiative.

Others opened up space for the two, and they saw all kinds of hand-to-hand combat. In the end, Rose successfully got rid of Westbrook and entered the penalty area through continuous changes of direction.

Seeing this, Li Pu hurriedly stepped forward to block it.

Rose once again made a change of direction without slowing down, passing Li Pu, and then Ibaka helped defend again!
It's over, isn't it?
Even if he is as strong as Rose, his mentality explodes due to the successive defenses.

Attracting three-point defense, it stands to reason that this is a good time to score the ball.

But Rose knew very well that with the help defense speed of Li Pu and Ibaka, if passed to them, the Thunder's supplementary defense would definitely be in place.

Instead of this, why not come by yourself!
Ever since, Rose actually sped up again in the already high-speed movement, forcibly passed Ibaka by a position, and then made a layup.

There was Ibaka in the front and Li Pu in the back. Under the attack of the two, Rose actually threw the ball up through the gap.

"not good!"

Li Pu sensed something was wrong, but his body had no time to react. He could only watch the basketball fly to the basket, hit the backboard, and bounce off the basket.

Then, the ball missed!

I have to say that Rose played this ball very imaginatively, but unfortunately the shot is still too reluctant, the angle is too small, and he has to avoid two shot-blockers. It is not easy to throw the ball.

If the ball is not scored, it is natural to grab a rebound.

At this time, Noah finally found an opportunity, followed up, grabbed a rebound in the air, and prepared to make a dunk.

"Can you succeed?"

Li Pu, who had already landed on the ground, kicked his legs on the ground, and unexpectedly arrived second, and pressed his hand on the basketball before Noah dunked.

Although Noah had two hands and Li Pu had one hand, after a lot of fighting in the air, the ball was actually defended by Li Pu.

The two fell, Noah fell heavily to the ground, and Li Pu stopped.

Westbrook successfully grabbed the basketball, and the Thunder's counterattack hit again.

In the fast break, Westbrook took the lead and rushed to the front. Facing the basket, he dunked with a tomahawk. 88:87, the Thunder finally completed the overtake!
After landing, Westbrook roared excitedly at the audience, and the audience responded with the most enthusiastic cheers.

When returning to defense, Westbrook came to Li Pu and stretched out his hand, "Most of the cheers are for you!"

Seeing Westbrook's serious expression, Li Pu pouted while being moved, "It should all be mine!"

Having said that, he still clapped Westbrook hard, "Snap!"

Although the score was overtaken by the Thunder, the Bulls still did not call a timeout.

It's not that Thibodeau has no brains, but that the Bulls' problem is offense. In this regard, even if he called a timeout, it is difficult to achieve good results. Second, if the timeout is not called at this time, Durant will not be able to play. The strength of the team also weakened by one point.

At this time, more than four minutes have passed in the fourth quarter, and the Bulls still only scored 2 points.

However, Rose didn't believe in evil, it was still him, he still entered the penalty area, and he was still facing several people's siege, this time finally the referee's whistle sounded.

Li Pu thug foul, Rose got two free throws.

Li Pu's foul was actually for Ibaka. After all, Ibaka had committed four fouls at this time. If he became five fouls, it would definitely have a great impact on the Thunder's defense.

Finally, Rose used two free throws to help the team regain the lead, but Durant had already returned to the court.

Because the combination of Ibaka and Li Pu performed very well tonight, Brooks asked Durant to replace Green.

After all, Green's playing time tonight is not short, almost the same as Durant.

It was the Thunder's turn to attack.

Without saying a word, Westbrook passed the ball to Durant who had just returned to the court.

Durant also really dared to shoot. Facing Luol Deng's defense, he changed direction continuously to catch mid-range jumpers and scored 2 points.

At 89:90, the Thunder took the lead again.

Then, the Bulls attacked, Gibson received the ball from Rose, but under the interference of Li Pu, he missed a shot, and the rebound was picked off by Li Pu and handed over to Durant.

Unlike Westbrook stepping on the Hot Wheels, Durant slowly brought the ball to the frontcourt, like an outing.

In this way, when Durant came to the frontcourt, everyone on the Bulls had retreated to the backcourt.

However, Durant was still not in a hurry, he came a step away from the three-point line, and directly chose to make a jumper.

Luol Deng never expected that Durant would shoot in this position. After all, the Thunder have not yet fallen into position!

At this time, if the shot is missed, the rebound must belong to the Bulls!
"Wait, Durant made a shot! The ball is in! With a sword to seal his throat, Durant hit a very crucial ultra-long three-pointer!"

For a moment, Wang Xing's entire dormitory and Jiu Lang's commentator were boiling, this ball was too murderous!

Just when Durant finished shooting, Li Pu just ran near the center line. Looking at Durant who was still holding his shooting hand high when he landed, a word came to Li Pu's mind, death has come!
This sentence is correct, Durant and Death are undoubtedly at this moment.

In the subsequent game, although it was still fierce, the point difference between the two teams was opened up a little bit. When the time entered the last minute, the point difference had been opened to more than 1 points.

It can be said that after Durant made that three-pointer, the Bulls' spirits disappeared together.

The final score was fixed at 106:95.

Throughout the fourth quarter, the Bulls scored 13 points.

Durant scored a game-high 30 points, Westbrook scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. In addition, Jeff Green also scored 18 points. After that, no one from the Thunder scored in double figures.

Harden had 8 points and 4 assists, and Ibaka had 6 points and 9 rebounds.

As for Li Pu, he scored 4 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks. It seems that the statistics are mediocre, but the plus-minus value is as high as +22, the highest in the team!
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that when Li Pu played, it was the turning point of the game.

On the other side, Ross scored 28 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, which is similar to Westbrook.

It's a pity that he is still no match for four fists with two fists, oh no, it should be ten fists tonight!

"We must win next time!" Rose shook hands with Westbrook after the game.

"It will be us to win!" Westbrook replied.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Rose stretched out his hand in front of Li Pu again, "I remember you! Rookie!"

"Are you sending us a victory to welcome me into the NBA?" After hearing the word "rookie", Li Pu instinctively replied.
