An Luo returned to play in the second half of the second quarter. Paul George and Westbrook took turns with the Warriors in a rotation, and Anlo was able to rest for a while. Otherwise, he should have played long ago.
Chesapeake Energy Arena fans saw Anlo and Paul George high-fiving from the sidelines, and there was a burst of enthusiastic cheers. This cheer is not only a compliment to Paul George, but also an expectation of An Luo.
"Man, leave it to you!"
"no problem!"
……
As soon as he came up, An Luo got the chance to shoot. He has been resting for ten minutes, and this is when he is full of energy. Anlo's active running on the court made the Warriors players miserable. Especially Thompson, who returned to the game five minutes earlier than Anno, now not only can't get off the court, but must also follow the opponent to run around the court. No way, only he can keep up with An Luo's rhythm. If you switch to other people to defend An Luo, the effect will be greatly reduced.
But now, Thompson's defensive effect is not very good. He was barely able to keep up with An Luo, and he was very passive. What's more, An Luo is not alone. Other Thunder players will give him a lot of help. Just like now, Kanter is in the first block near the baseline on the right elbow. Although he only blocked it and withdrew, it could not help An Luo completely get rid of Thompson's entanglement, but he still greatly restricted the opponent's speed. An Luo seized the opportunity to charge and came outside the three-point line. Westbrook's eyes were quick and he passed the ball immediately. An Luo didn't hesitate after receiving the ball and threw the ball directly.
This kind of action is too familiar to An Luo! Every night, the task Donovan gave him never changed. An Luo also knew very well that he was responsible for scoring. So his first reaction after receiving a pass from his teammate was to throw the ball. Of course, he will examine the degree, and it is very dangerous to make random moves.
"唰……"
Basketball hollow into the net! An Luo contributed points as soon as he came up. The Chesapeake Energy Stadium fans did not stingy with their applause. They applauded and shouted "Ann". The atmosphere was very warm. An Luo was also very excited. He stretched out his hands, made a three-point gesture, and then waved vigorously towards the auditorium.
However, An Luo can score, but he can't change the Thunder's defense. To be precise, he cannot change the overall defensive situation of the Thunder.
Looking back, Durant held the ball from beyond the three-point line and singled Patterson. The defense on the front line every day, especially the defense at the third position, is basically all on Paul George. Other people can't contribute much. Although Patterson's performance on the offensive end is always ineffective, but he can barely provide some help on the defensive end. However, Durant is an existence that even Paul George cannot restrict, let alone Patterson.
Durant faces the basket, his left foot does not move, and his right leg suddenly moves forward and right. However, his right foot just hit the floor and did not step out. Durant wanted to use this trick to get past Patterson, maybe it was too much that Patterson touched the way, and it didn't work. However, Durant did not give up this offense because of this. He turned directly, leaning against Patterson on the left half of his body, and pushing his entire body toward the basket against the opponent. Patterson did not head-on, he tried to remove the stool, but did not receive the expected effect. Durant had been prepared for a long time, and had always been stunned. After Patterson withdrew, he felt a huge force coming from Durant's body. He gritted his teeth and inhaled, stabilized the bottom plate, and pushed it up. The bodies of the two slammed together in an instant, and then they separated quickly. Durant took a step forward, then turned around and jumped, leaning back and shooting. Patterson hurriedly rushed over, jumped high, reaching out to block the opponent. It is a pity that he slapped Durant on the arm. Not only did he fail to prevent the opponent from shooting, but he also paid a foul, making it two plus one!
Watching the basketball he had thrown into the net bag, Durant made a fist with his right hand and shook it vigorously in the air. And shook his head at Patterson. Although there is no rubbish, but the meaning is self-evident.
Durant's actions caused dissatisfaction among all the Thunder fans present. Many people stood up and shouted at Durant, the boos in the arena shook the sky. But Durant didn't care about these things. He has experienced too much in the past two years, and he has long been used to it. Standing on the free throw line and shaking his shoulders, Durant steadily threw the ball in.
Throughout the second quarter, the Thunder were trying to get the lead in the score. Whether it is Westbrook or Paul George ~EbookFREE.me~ or Anlor who only played in the second half, they have all made their own contributions on the offensive end. But every time they saw hope, the Warriors were able to respond. Especially Durant, he took on more than half of the Warriors' offense alone, making key shots after boos in the Chesapeake Energy Arena. Help the Warriors always maintain a balance with the Thunder.
Just after Durant scored two plus one, An Luo launched another attack. He still used the screen of his teammate to get rid of Thompson's entanglement, and then took the ball from the three-point line. This ball is slightly different in that it is no longer Westbrook, but Kanter. Before that, Kanter didn't get to the basket after covering Westbrook, and pulled to the top of the arc to support. Westbrook rushed to the basket, fell into the encirclement of Green and Rooney, and could only pass the ball to Kanter. The latter caught the ball at the top of the arc and handed in hand to assist An Luo hit a three-pointer.
Before the Thunder could breathe a sigh of relief, the Warriors tied the score again. Although it wasn't Durant who stood up as the blocking stone this time, Durant made a great contribution to the offense this time. He continued to single Patterson, pushing all the way to the basket. Kanter couldn't stand it anymore and went straight up to double-team. Durant took the opportunity to throw the ball to the basket, Rooney flew into the sky and pressed the ball into the basket with both hands.
Both sides just like that, you come and I hit the last moment of this quarter. Westbrook's emergency stop jumper after the breakthrough gave the Warriors a chance to take the lead. At this time, the two sides tied for 58. But in the last attack, Thompson missed the opportunity under Anluo's interference. Ever since, the two sides can only end the first half with a balanced situation.
