Vol 3 Chapter 38: 3 guards


  
 
 
  -> ->   The entire second quarter became An Luo's performance time.
   This is the case during the game. If a player on the team feels good, they will always play for the opponent. So whether it's Christon or Westbrook, they are paying attention to Anlu's position, and then pass the ball to him.
   He made 17 shots in the 12 minutes he played in the second quarter! Refresh the highest number of shots in a single quarter. If it is the first time to watch the Thunder game, no one would think that Westbrook is the star. An Luo is!
   Fortunately, An Luo did not disappoint everyone's trust. Of these 17 shots, he was 5 of 11 from beyond the arc and 3 of 6 from the mid-range. The score of 21 points in a single quarter is only 2 points less than the highest score of his career in a single quarter. If one more three-pointer is scored, the record will be set.
   can only say that it is a pity!
   Except for An Luo, the performance of the Thunder's other people is very average. In addition, the Pacers' performance was not bad, so at halftime, the Thunder only led the opponent by 5 points.
   During the intermission, An Luo's performance caused a sensation on the Internet. After a downturn for half a month, An Luo finally played an exciting game. His precise three-pointer was once again shown in front of countless fans.
   Half time, less than 15 minutes, 27 points! It is enough to prove that he is still the best rookie this year. Looking at the entire NBA league, An Luo is a very good scorer.
   It is foreseeable that An Luo will refresh his scoring record tonight. And under his offensive momentum, 40+ is not impossible!
   Thanks to An Luo's performance, the head star Westbrook finally relaxed. He also played only 15 minutes in the first half. He made 7 of 12 shots and scored 15 points. Plus 12 assists and 7 rebounds. Of his 12 assists, 5 of them were passed to An Luo. It can be seen that their tacit understanding is quite sufficient.
   Although the Thunder did not lead much, the atmosphere in their locker room was very good. An Luo's return gave everyone a sigh of relief. Although the Thunder's current record is not bad, the losses in those games are indeed a pity. Except for the Pistons game, there are great chances to win the other games.
   Fully Thunder, not afraid of any opponents.
   Donovan analyzed the situation in the first half for everyone, and then arranged the tactics and lineup for the third quarter. He repeatedly emphasized the protection of rebounds and the aggressiveness of defense. In the second quarter, when the offense was so smooth, the score was not opened, but these two points were not done well.
   To win the game safely, offense is only one aspect. Defense is equally important.
   So, at Donovan's request in the second half. The Thunder will disperse part of their energy to the defensive end.
   The effect is very good!
   Oladipo and Sabonis brought a lot of substitutes in the third quarter and started the second half match.
   Pacers Turner launched his first offense in the second half. He went straight down after the pick-and-roll, and then received a basketball from Brooks at a step within the free throw line. Very good opportunity! It's a pity that the head is not good enough, and a good opportunity was wasted.
   Grant grabbed the rebound. Oladipo rushed to the front court. Chasing long shots beyond the three-point line, no! The ball could have been rushed in, and it was easy to hit it by himself or assisting teammates.
   He is a little impatient! Due to An Luo's outbreak, his playing time today has declined. The sense of crisis that had been hidden for a long time suddenly came to mind.
   In fact, Oladipo performed well in the first two games. In two consecutive victories, he scored 29 and 26 points respectively. Partnering with Westbrook has a little bit of a double shot in the backcourt.
   Donovan didn't solve the problem of Anro and Oladipo. These two positions are both talented and good players, and each has its own characteristics, able to cope with different game conditions. But in a team, they mutually restrict the opponent's development. This is not a good thing for young players.
   What a trouble of happiness! It would be nice if one could be placed in the third position. Unfortunately, depending on the physical conditions of these two people, either of them will be screened at the small forward position.
   You came and I played half a quarter, and the score was still 5 points.
   Donovan called a timeout and simply drew two tactics. Then he waved his hand and went up and down. Westbrook, Anlow, Adams, and Robertson played, replacing Christon, Kanter, Sabonis and Singler. He left Oladipo on the court. The three guards all go into battle, which is interesting!
   Robertson was pushed to the fourth position. He was put in this position by Donovan in the Western Conference Finals last season and played very well. As for the third position, An Luo topped it. Who said he was the tallest of the three guards! Fortunately, the Pacers' starting third position, Glenn Robinson, is not high, less than 2 meters.
   The timeout ends and the game continues.
   Westbrook advances with the ball, Anlo and Oladipo line up on both sides. However, An Luo is still a bit uncomfortable. His position has always been near the three-point line, but now he is closer to the rebound.
   Thunder is actually the same thing~EbookFREE.me~ Adams pulled out the pick and roll, and Westbrook rushed in. Come on your own if you have a chance, and divide the ball if you don't have a chance. But with Anluo and Oladipo on the field, the space inside has become very large. After all, no one will put these two guys out. Although Oladipo is not as perverted as Anluo, he still has a hit rate of about 35%.
   Westbrook, who has not been specially taken care of, has a relatively high offensive efficiency when there is enough space.
   The Pacers couldn't resist the Thunder's attack at all. They can only do their best to resist and then strengthen their offense. In order to be able to bite the score through the attack.
   That's what they did in the third quarter. But time has changed, and these guys on the Thunder field are no worse than their offense in terms of defense.
   The ball passed to Robinson, An Luo directly posted it, stuck in the opponent's breakthrough route. A pair of long arms stretched out and wrapped around each other. Robinson tried several times, but to no avail.
   can't break through, and there is no chance to shoot, Robinson must pass the ball. But his passing is really a bit poor, and he needs to turn his head to find teammates.
   At the moment he turned his head, An Luo slapped the basketball out. Oladipo from beyond the three-point line dashed out, picked up the basketball and dashed across the center line. Westbrook followed closely and Oladipo threw the ball up after the cross-country free throw line. Westbrook took off and dunked the ball into the basket.
   From the cooperation between the three guards, it ignited the city of Oklahoma in an instant.
