Vol 3 Chapter 281: 6 points for a single quarter


Donovan watched the players' reactions and nodded in satisfaction. On the field, you can't lose your calm at any time. Especially roles like Westbrook. If he loses his footing in the game, the Thunder's offensive system will be messed up.
By the third quarter, Westbrook, suffocating his stomach, began to show off his power.
As soon as he came up, he intercepted the ball passed by Moore to Rondo. In fact, Moore was really careless about this steal. Although Westbrook is a point guard, Moore is not a qualified striker. His height is only 191cm, the same as Westbrook. And his personal strength is obviously worse than Westbrook. After receiving the ball from his teammate, he tried to hit it in. But no chance was found. Westbrook went straight to grab, making Moore a little anxious. He saw Rondo and hurriedly passed the ball over.
Westbrook has quick eyes and quick hands, waved his long arms, and walked around to take the ball away. Then he rushed quickly towards the other side of the court. No one catches him! Westbrook dashed directly across the free throw line, then exerted force with his left leg, and the whole person flew directly and slammed the ball in.
Westbrook slammed the dunk and returned to his defensive position. Although more than half of the ill-fated breath came out, Westbrook didn't stop. This is reflected in the next defense.
Rondo is still organizing the offense from the outside. Westbrook did not post it. After giving in a big step back, he arched his waist and opened his hands. Staring at Rondo, he said, "Come! You can't jump in anyway!"
Rondo ignored him, but didn't make a three-pointer either. He actually has the least confidence in his three-pointers. If it weren't for real life, he wouldn't vote. Rondo stuck to Westbrook on one side of his body, staring at him and walking in. At this time, Davis also leaned in, he made a pick-and-roll against Westbrook, and then immediately went to the basket. Rondo's best choice at this time is to send the ball to the basket. Then waited for Davis to buckle in and receive an assist steadily.
But Westbrook is also a good player. His pick-and-roll cooperation with Adams can be regarded as the most stable and efficient tactic in the Thunder offensive system. So when Davis followed, Westbrook threw directly at Rondo. As soon as the ball left his hand, a black shadow flashed over. Rondo knew what was going on right away, but it was too late to react.
The basketball was slapped by Westbrook to Paul George on the right. After the latter received the ball, his right arm was thrown vigorously, and the basketball was sent to An Luo, who was already close to the center line. He was the first person to react. When Westbrook caught the ball, he started to back up. The tacit understanding of a season made him believe that his teammates would see him.
Facts have proved that An Luo's idea is correct. When he received the ball, he was just before the three-point line. No Pelicans players threatened him. In fact, he could rush in and deduct one. But An Luo did not. He pulled up directly and threw the ball. Such an opportunity, in this series, it is too difficult for An Luo to encounter it once. Moreover, now is the time to chase points, three points are better than two points!
"Huh~"
The goal is scored!
56:57
The Thunder are only one point behind.
An Luo is very happy! He slapped Paul George and Westbrook on the center line. He needs such an opportunity to be able to reflect his value in the game. Those Thunder fans who came from afar were also very happy. The third quarter they have been looking forward to is here! After two consecutive successful defensive counterattacks, they saw the Thunder in the regular season.
Holiday shook his head. He felt that he was negligent to make An Luo score so easily. Gentry kept him pestering An Luo, he thought he hadn't done it well. However, he will not let An Luo have such a chance next. It is a pity that Holiday's idea is not wrong, but the situation cannot be controlled by him.
An Luo's performance has just begun.
Davis scored a hook from the basket and temporarily stabilized the situation. But this only lasted 10 seconds.
In the next round, Paul George used Adams's screen to get rid of the defense from outside the three-point line and made a decisive three-pointer. But this shot missed! The basketball hit the rock in front of the basket and flew toward the free throw line. Holiday and An Luo are the closest. The former judged the basketball's drop point for the first time, then stepped over and jumped high, and the rebounding ball must be collected in the bag. But An Luo did not compete with him for this rebound. Because he saw Westbrook rushing over. He understands Westbrook's rebounding ability. Rather than rushing in to grab, it is better to retreat. If the opponent controls the ball, it is better to retreat calmly.
Holiday was indeed the first to contact basketball ~EbookFREE.me~ but he didn't control it. Westbrook flew into the air and slapped it. An Luo, who had retreated a step beyond the three-point line, stretched out his hand and caught the basketball. Without saying anything, just pull it up and vote!
Go in again!
59:59, the Thunder equalized the score!
In the next 9 minutes, An Luo was very active. He took Holiday around the three-point line and the baseline. Completely tireless. At first, Holiday was still able to hold An Luo tightly, but in the next few minutes, he was really tired. You know that in this quarter, he and An Luo have been on the court and have been running!
In those few minutes, An Luo got a lot of opportunities. He made four of five shots from beyond the arc! While helping the Thunder overtake the score, they also withstood the counterattacks from Davis and Milotic.
By the end of the third quarter, the Thunder had led the Pelicans by 13 points! The two most outstanding players in this quarter, Westbrook and An Luo, one surrendered 4 points, 4 steals and 6 assists, and the other scored 18 points!
That group of Oklahoma people was really excited. Such performance is what they have been expecting. They knew An Luo had that ability. You know, in the other Western Conference semifinals, Curry made 5 of 10 three-pointers from injury, which really caught the attention of the Thunder fans. They also have a "Curry"! And this season, in the field of three-pointers, Anlo is better than Curry.
Now An Luo finally hit it! The explosion of scoring ability with 6 3-pointers from 7 shots in a single quarter put the entire New Orleans Arena into silence. What is even more annoying is that this game seems to have returned to the rhythm of the first two games. Lead in the first half, overtaken in the second half, and then lost the game.
