-> -> Westbrook is really stuck in his heart.
An Luo remembered that when he was in the Staples locker room, he answered in front of the media. Although it was very plain, An Luo heard that he was actually very angry.
"Russell, kd said before that you are still brothers. Have you read those comments?"
"I talked about this when I was in Oklahoma City. I don’t know if you heard it! I said I won’t answer questions about Durant again. If you ask questions about basketball, I’d love to Answer. Otherwise, there is no need to ask again!"
"Do you pay special attention to the next game?"
"I play every game as the last one. Nothing special!"
This game is just a normal regular season for the Thunder. But for Westbrook, it has a different meaning. He wants to win the game for ten thousand reasons. Although it will be difficult!
When An Luo first came to Oracle Arena, he was still unknown in ncaa. At that time, he was still asking Curry. Now that I think about it, I'm really lucky that I haven't been driven out. Therefore, the impression left by this arena is still good.
But the old guys on the Thunder told An Luo that playing at Oracle is difficult. Not only is the opponent strong, those Golden State fans are very crazy. Even on the way to Oakland, Westbrook reminded An Luo not to be frightened by the atmosphere of Oracle.
He also felt that the other party was a bit exaggerated. Is there a more fearful home atmosphere in this world than Chesapeake Energy Arena! But when An Luo walked into Oracle, he realized that what his teammates said was not an exaggeration!
The fireworks display before the game ignited the enthusiasm of the whole arena. The golden yellow wave of the audience continued, and the shouts of the fans were almost torn apart, which made An Luo feel very depressed. "Old guys" like Westbrook and Adams are experienced. When entering and warming up, they all wear headphones to prevent the fans from being affected.
That was the first time An Luo felt the boos. But it is very interesting that in this stadium, it is not just the Thunder players like Anlo who are booed.
Durant is the first player to play for the home team. Although the Golden State fans are enthusiastic enough, the boos mixed with cheers are clearly audible.
The decision Durant made this summer caused him to be questioned and criticized, making him a villain in the eyes of fans all over the world, and even making him bet on his professional dignity. But this decision made him infinitely close to the nba championship trophy.
Whatever you get, you must lose something. He himself knows that in this season's games, boos will not be less. Just like in the opener, Durant was booed every time he touched the ball in the game. This is still in Vancouver, Canada, far away from the United States.
Of course, as far as Durant is concerned, he doesn't care about boos. He doesn't care much at Oracle Stadium. Anyway, in the past few years at the Oracle Stadium, which one is not booing!
After the warm-up was over, the coaches of both sides made some arrangements for the game, and the game began.
There are no special arrangements for the starting players on both sides. Donovan sent out a combination of Westbrook, Oladipo, Robertson, Sabonis and Adams. The Warriors are Curry, Durant, Thompson, Green four stars, with defensive champion Pachulia.
Westbrook and Durant, their faces were expressionless, and there was no communication.
Jump ball in the middle circle. Pachulia is not Adams's opponent, Oladipo received the basketball and handed it to Westbrook. The moment he received the ball, Oracle Stadium suddenly boosed.
brought the ball to the front court, Westbrook did not come by himself. Adams came up to cover and went down, received Westbrook's pass, and went straight to the basket. Pachulia stood in the circle with one foot, and then raised her hands to block Adams's rush. The latter lost the chance to score and passed the ball to Robertson who cut in.
After receiving the ball, Robertson directly faced the "Buddha" and made a gesture of worshipping Buddha. Then he squeezed his shoulder from the right side of Thompson and made a layup.
But he failed to get a blood! The Warriors' Green came up with a big hat and shot the basketball off.
Fortunately, Adams, who followed up, made up the ball.
Pachulia quickly kicked off the ball, Curry advanced with the ball, and then handed it to Green. The latter stood at the top of the arc with the ball, and the others ran without the ball together. For a time, the situation on the court changed rapidly.
Thunder defense can't keep up with the opponent's rhythm.
In fact, looking at the entire league, few can keep up with the tactical rhythm of the Warriors. Air cutting has always been one of the most important tactics of the Warriors. I have to say that the ability of this group of people to share the ball and grasp the timing is indeed strong.
However, with Durant joining, the Warriors also began to undergo some changes.
Green scored the ball to Durant, who faced Roberson and Sabonis and directly scored a three-pointer!
An Luo can feel the helplessness of his teammates on the sidelines. They have done a good defense, but that guy is too strong! With Durant's height and wingspan, every position he plays is misplaced. CIC, three-pointers and breakthroughs are all unfavorable. Wanting to score is really easy!
Thunder attacked again, Westbrook hit the basket, facing Green and Pachulia's flanking attack, he had to distribute the ball to Robertson on the outside. Facing the big open space, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Robertson hesitated for a while, and he threw the ball.
Warriors still know the Thunder well. So their defense tonight has shrunk a lot inside. This makes Westbrook very uncomfortable. He wants to jump in and make a basket, just like learning from the West. Outside lines can't help him much. Oladipo's three-pointer is slightly better, but Thompson is staring at it and it's not a big problem. As for the latter, it is not a big problem if it is completely empty!
"boom!"
This crisp iron strike tells everyone that no accident happened! But Adams is great. He leaped high and once again made up the basketball on Pachulia's head.
Inside, the Thunder still have an advantage.
Looking back, Green caught Durant's pass at the top of the arc and took a 3-pointer. This time he chose to do it himself!
"boom!"
Sabonis grabbed the rebound, Westbrook counterattacked with the ball.
The Thunder's counterattack was very fast. Westbrook took the lead. Taking advantage of the Warriors' unsteady footing, they accelerated the start and hit the basket. In the face of Thompson who came back on defense, he directly strengthened and scored the ball.
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded immediately. Thompson blocked the foul!
Two plus one!
The scene booed loudly! The Golden State people think Westbrook should be sentenced to an offensive foul. Thompson also found the referee the first time, but the opponent ignored him.
Westbrook glanced at Durant coldly, then stood on the free throw line.
