Vol 3 Chapter 488: Similar results

Throughout the third quarter, An Luo only rested for 2 minutes. Grant and Westbrook are in the same situation as him, except that Paul George rested for two more minutes. In this case, the Thunder fell behind the Warriors by 2 points at the end of this quarter.
The situation is already very unfavorable for the Thunder. It's okay if it's been deadlocked, but the Thunder have been suppressing the opponent in the first two quarters. The opposing team wiped out their advantage in one period, and even surpassed the score. This has a big impact on the morale of the team. Fortunately, players such as Donovan and Anlo have experienced many storms. Not so discouraged.
"Guys, the game has just begun. For OKC, for the championship, use our toughest defense and sharpest offense to beat them! We want to win in Oklahoma at Chesapeake Energy Arena Western Conference Championship."
Westbrook made a simple mobilization before the start of the fourth quarter. As the boss of the team, he must put on a posture. Of course, this Westbrook has always done very little. In the Thunder, whether it is the period of the Three Juniors, the Double Juniors, or the current Big Three, the most motivated person will always be Westbrook.
However, the warriors who fight at home are now in full swing. At home, they almost completely took the upper hand in the third quarter. At this moment, both Cole and Curry players are eager to step into the arena immediately and defeat the Thunder.
The last quarter of the game was very anxious.
After getting enough rest, Curry and others launched a fierce attack as soon as they came up. Curry was the first to make contributions. He took the ball to the left three-point line and rushed to the inside by covering the ball. His offensive ability with the ball is no worse than the ability to shoot three-pointers. Although the play is not as strong as Westbrook, the offensive efficiency is not low. He tossed around inside, very dexterous. A few changes and false moves shook Grant who had changed defense. Then lifted his right hand and made a small throw to score the ball.
After seeing Curry score easily, Durant is not far behind. In the next offensive round, he stood on the left three-point line and got stuck with Paul George, reaching for the ball. Upon seeing this, Curry passed the ball without saying a word. The latter catches the ball and hits Paul George directly with his back. Both are top players in this position, and direct dialogue is also a big highlight of this series.
Don't look at Durant's tall and thin, but his core strength is not small. He squeezed into Paul George and approached the basket step by step. Invariably, the other players did not go up to help, but instead came to open up space and let them play.
Coming to the basket, Durant showed his footsteps. Using his left foot as the axis, he turned left and swayed right, and after shaking Paul George out of the best defensive position with one fake after another, he took off and layup. Durant enjoys this score, especially for Paul George. As the Thunder's two third-position players, he naturally wants to beat the opponent. Whether it is the result of the game or a direct matchup, Durant wants to win. Although he has already left, but the feelings for the Thunder fans and Oklahoma city are very complicated, Durant still cares about their views of himself.
It was a beautiful 1v1, but in the end it was robbed by another player.
The moment Durant took the shot, Noel appeared behind him, and then slapped the ball down. But the Warriors still have the ball. Noel shot directly below, and the basketball fell directly into Durant's arms. Although he was a little surprised, out of instinct, he immediately took off again, wanting to complete the second attack. After all, there was no one in the basket. Such an opportunity cannot be missed!
There is nothing wrong with Durant's choice. There is really no Thunder player at the basket that can interfere with his offense. However, this does not mean that the Thunder are defensive. When Durant jumped to the basket again, Noel also jumped with the opponent. He almost copied the action just now and once again blocked Durant's layup.
At this time Durant's mind was a little confused! It's not a weird thing to be capped for a layup. In this league, who hasn't been capped yet! But being capped twice in a row is a bit embarrassing! In a panic, Durant collided with Rooney, picked the rebound out of bounds, and gave the ball to the Thunder.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Green's eyes widened, and he yelled at Durant. However, the latter seemed to be used to Green's behavior, shook his head, ran to the other side of the court, and prepared to defend.
The Thunder's defense is very tenacious. Noel has repeatedly blocked Durant's layups at the basket, which is a true portrayal of the Thunder's desperate defense. Not only that, Anlor and Paul George also caused great trouble for the Warriors on the offensive end. UU read www.uukanshu.com so that when Curry and Durant were almost violent, the two sides were entangled until the last moment.
With 25 seconds left in the game, Durant made a three-pointer to rewrite the score to 100:102.
The Warriors lead by 2 points!
The Thunder then made a perfect offense. Westbrook and Paul George played a pick-and-roll match on the left, attracting the Warriors' attention. As a result, the former passed the ball to An Luo who ran out of the open under the double cover of Grant and Noel. The latter did not live up to Westbrook's expectations and hit the ball directly in the right corner.
At 103:102, the Thunder took a key lead 4 seconds before the end of the game.
Cole took advantage of the short timeout to make arrangements quickly. His current pressure, falling can crush the mountain.
"Beep..."
The hurried whistle sounded in Oracle Arena, and the round that decided the game and even the whole series began.
Green served from the sideline and Iguodala replaced Rooney. After the whistle sounded, the Warriors players immediately ran. Donovan deployed a man-to-man tactic. There are too many end points for the Warriors to focus on which one.
At this time, the Warriors played a very beautiful tactic. Curry used Durant's screen to get rid of Westbrook's defense, and then at the free throw line, he passed through the gate-type double-screen formation formed by Thompson and Iguodala, and came to the top of the arc to be picked up on the right. To the basketball sent by Green, he took another step to the right and then pulled it up and threw the ball.
Basketball across the sky, everyone's heart raised their throats.
"Huh!"
With the red light on the edge of the backboard lit up, the basketball headed into the net bag.
