Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

While the New York Knicks officially entered the finals, the Western Conference finals also reached the fifth game. At present, the Thunder's opponents with a big score of 3-1, as long as they win a game, then they can reach the finals!

This is the first time in their history, and it is also the first time that the Thunder's "Three Masters" have reached the finals!

For this team, their years of poor performance finally showed the results! After three years of drafting and two years of training, they finally returned to the stage of the finals!

For a rebuilding team that is in bad shape, such a speed can be called fast!

Just look at the Nets and the previous Knicks. It’s not easy to rebuild. Not every team is like the Los Angeles Lakers. It can go smoothly in every rebuilding phase. Complete the reconstruction by robbing people!

Speaking of the Lakers’ renewal, it’s really overbearing. In the beginning, they quickly completed the reconstruction by getting the "Sky Hook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. After that, the Lakers managed to complete a reconstruction. If it weren't for the "Magic", they The road to glory could have gone a little longer, but after that, they signed with O'Neal and completed the reconstruction again and directly won the 3 consecutive championships.

Then they got Pau Gasol from the Grizzlies, and the latter's addition allowed this team to win another championship!

Of course, Kobe, the team leader at the time, was traded with the Hornets!

But even so, their knotted superstars are really not less, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, O'Neal and Gasol, the "three" except that Gasol may not be so advanced in the final, the other two are all. At that time, the league ranked either the first or the top three. These two guys alone gave the Lakers more championships than one hand!

The results of this robbery are really rich enough!

The Thunder have also become a benchmark in the industry because of their drafts and training in the past few years, and they have also shown the right path for small city teams to succeed.

For the Thunder fans, there is only one thing they are thinking about now, and that is to quickly enter the finals and achieve a zero breakthrough for the Thunder to hit the finals!

They also believe that the Thunder will definitely be able to eliminate the Grizzlies in the next game!

"Our strength is much stronger than our opponents, so I believe we can definitely win. There is no doubt about this. I also believe that the Thunder will not let me down!"

"Finally we are about to enter the finals! I didn't expect that we actually made it to the finals. Maybe we could still win the championship!"

"The Grizzlies rely on the inside twin towers, but our inside is not weak, so I believe that we will easily eliminate the opponent in the fifth game! Then enter the finals and eliminate the Knicks!"

...

The Thunder fans are very confident. Of course, it's no wonder they are so confident. The fifth game is the Thunder's home court. The Grizzlies have not won the Thunder's home court yet!

Based on this alone, they also believe that the Thunder will definitely be able to eliminate the Grizzlies!

"You have won three victories. I don't know if you think you can win the final match for today's game?"

Kevin Durant was also asked about his determination to win today.

Facing the camera, Du Xiaoshuai didn't think much about it, and he said directly: "I believe we can do it. Because we have such strength, we will eliminate the Grizzlies. Although they are good opponents, they are good for us. Say, our goal is only one, and that is to hit the finals and get to the finals! Now that the opponent has appeared, what we have to do is to complete the current thing as soon as possible!"

Kevin Durant didn't say too much, but it was revealed between the lines, "My mind is no longer on the Grizzlies. I'm already thinking about how to beat the Knicks!"

Of course, it’s no wonder that Kevin Durant has such thoughts. After all, it’s the first time in his career that he has reached the finals. Everyone will be so excited, including Kevin Durant. He is the same. No one can understand the desire to enter the finals, because his goal has been to enter the finals twice in a row, and he has won two championships. If he does not enter the finals again, he will feel that he has been left behind!

For Kevin Durant, this is something he absolutely does not allow!

And now he can finally enter the finals. In his view, this is a solid step for him to pursue Yi Jianlian. This step can give him more confidence and make him full of catching up with Yi Jianlian. Motivation!

This is why he is so excited!

Because he can finally reach the final finals to prove himself like Yi Jianlian!

In short, he took another step this year, which is very important!

It is even more important than he took the regular season mvp or other things, because the height of the team's final standing can intuitively reflect the distance between him and Yi Jianlian!

If he can stand on the stage of the final finals, then he will feel that there is hope to catch up with Yi Jianlian!

On the contrary, if he can't make it to the finals, Yi Jianlian is likely to win three consecutive championships!

The same player who came out of the 07, this will undoubtedly cause a very big shake in his confidence, this is not the result he wants to see.

Anyway, in one sentence, he can enter the finals, that is the most exciting thing!

...

The day of the game came soon. The Oklahoma City Thunder hosted the Chesapeake Energy Center at home to the Memphis Grizzlies’ fifth challenge. This game is a game the Thunder desperately want to win. , But in the end relying on Mike Conley's outstanding performance of the Grizzlies, the Bears won this crucial battle with a score of 99:93, bringing the total score back to 3 to 2!

For the Thunder in this campaign, Kevin Durant scored a game-high 36 with 11 rebounds and 9 assists. It can be seen that he really wants to win! In addition, Sefolosa had an excellent performance on 9 shots and scored 19 points. This guy is just a blue-collar player. The performance can be said to exceed expectations. To put it directly, in the four Western Conference finals he has played, the highest score in the game was only 9 points. This game can score 19 points, which is completely beyond. The expected play, logically speaking, if such a surprise soldier did not appear in this game, it should be able to win, but the final result was lost!

Of course, the reason is also very simple. Except for these two guys, all the other players on the Thunder team are out of order!

Center Serge Ibaka only contributed 11 points and 5 rebounds. James Harden, who had performed very well in the first four games, only scored 6 points for his poor performance, and 4 of them were obtained through free throws. Except for 4 free throws, he never scored any more goals!

Speaking of, the team's best sixth man award of the season was finally awarded to James Harden, but this performance is obviously not enough to convince the public, because the sixth man of the team should be in the team substitution phase. For the entire team played a substantive help, instead of reluctantly scored 6 points like James Harden, this kind of sluggish performance also directly harmed the entire team.

It can also be seen from the game!

As soon as the first quarter came up, the two sides played their respective strengths. The Thunder continued to look for long-range firing opportunities through the pick and roll. The Grizzlies continued to use their inside advantage to get into low-post melee. On a hit, the Grey Thunder entered the second quarter with a 23:21 lead.

After the end of the first quarter, the Thunder entered the break time with a lead of 2 points!

It was also at this time, in the opinion of many Thunder fans, that the Thunder could win this game, because in the four games, the Thunder had the advantage during the substitution rotation!

So when the Thunder led by two points into the second quarter, in the eyes of many Thunder fans, this was a sign that the Thunder were going to win. As a result, Harden made consecutive mistakes, which made the Thunder repeatedly useless on the offensive end. In return, even the Grizzlies seized the opportunity to score waves after another. James Harden had no effect during this period of time!

Kevin Durant played during that time and did not bring any changes to this team, they have been suppressed by the Grizzlies! Until the middle of the second quarter, the Thunder hit 4 consecutive three-pointers under the leadership of Kevin Durant to lead the score, but at this time, Westbrook repeatedly fouled!

He is another reason the Thunder lost!

Westbrook left the game with six fouls in this game. He was completely messing around the court like a headless fly during the regular time of the Thunder, and even got into the horns. It was also during this time that the Grizzlies were young. Under the leadership of Gasol, he launched a counterattack, hitting an 8:2 puppet in the last 1 minute and 40 seconds of this quarter, setting the halftime score at 54:51!

The Grizzlies surpassed the score in the first half, something that the Thunder fans did not expect!

Marc Gasol, a defensive player, scored 9 points in this quarter and made a total of 4 fouls for the Thunder. His inside line in the Thunder can be said to be overwhelming and completely reproduced when they played with the Spurs. The style coming out!

However, even if it is halftime behind, the Thunder fans are still not worried, after all, they are behind by 3 points! They believe that the Thunder at home can't always keep up with the second quarter of the first half, playing chaotically!

Yes, they really didn't expect Westbrook to hit six offenders in this game. This guy is so **** at a critical moment is indeed something that everyone did not expect!

They all believe that Kevin Durant will play a very eye-catching performance in the second half, and then help the team to enter the finals smoothly!

While all American fans are paying attention to Yi Jianlian, the Thunder fans are also witnessing the growth of Kevin Durant. They watched Durant officially grow from a talent with unlimited potential to a super scorer!

While Kevin Durant was growing up, fans also saw his wonderful operations to save the team time and time again!

And Kevin Durant did not disappoint everyone!

In the second half, the two sides changed sides to fight again. Kevin Durant showed great power in the third quarter and scored 15 points with sudden shots. In this league, it is not easy for any player to score in double digits in a single quarter. !

But there are a few players, even if they do it, no one will be surprised. For example, Yi Jianlian and Kevin Durant. Now in the opinion of many experts, as long as he enters the scoring mode, the only thing that can stop him is His own touch, and Westbrook!

Westbrook:? ? ?

However, the point difference did not widen as the fans imagined. The Grizzlies relied on the advantages of the inside twin towers to support and keep the score at a balance. But at this time, the Grizzlies also exposed a big The problem is that hand-to-hand combat makes their physical energy drain very quickly. With the physical exhaustion, their free throw percentage has begun to drop sharply. The main attacker of the Thunder is Kevin Durant. Whether he is tired or not, let him Standing on the free throw line, it is no different from sending points, but also relying on the free throw line gap, Kevin Durant successfully helped the team to overtake the score, the Grizzlies fell behind with a score of 69:74 into the fourth quarter .

The five-point difference is not small, and it is really not big, at least for the Grizzlies, this does not constitute any impact.

In the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies’ two perimeter lines, Tony Allen and Mike Conley, took turns firing. Tony Allen also found a sight in this game. He was even better at attacking than Sefolosa, but these two The guys played a very good offensive performance at such a critical time, which also made this game extremely fierce!

It is also because the Grizzlies also have the x factor~www.readwn.com~ The final result is that the Grizzlies won!

But even so, the Thunder are still in a stalemate with the Grizzlies under Durant's leadership.

But with 1:58 left in the game, Mike Conley hit the key three-pointer!

Yes, there is a very big reason why the Grizzlies can win this game. In addition to their strong inside line, their outside line, especially the outside core of the team, Mike Conley, played well, contributing 26 points and 10 rebounds. A quasi triple-double with 9 assists, and also hit a number of key shots like this three-pointer.

After hitting this three-pointer, Kevin Durant forced a missed three-pointer, shifting the victory of the game to the Grizzlies. At this time, Mike Conley, who controlled the offensive time to the last few seconds, hit the shot again. The score was stretched to 94:90!

With the Grizzlies leading, the Thunder with little time left were forced to take foul tactics, but they made one of two shots. Conley and Randolph made three of four free throws. The game was meaningless. Venturant missed a three-pointer at the buzzer, and the score was fixed at 99:93. The Grizzlies pulled back a city and tied the big score to 3-2!
