Vol 3 Chapter 292: The Western Conference begins

May 14, 2018, evening. The Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City is already crowded and lively. Everyone has been looking forward to the upcoming game. Whether it's Oklahoma City fans or Golden State fans from afar from Oakland, the mood is high.
Some warm-up performances are going on on the court. At this point, the players have completed their warm-up training and all returned to the locker room to make final preparations for the game. In addition to the 20,000 fans on the scene, there are countless people watching the game through TV and the Internet. Whether the Thunder or the Warriors can win the Western Conference Finals will largely determine the trend of this series.
No one can predict the situation of the game. These two teams are very strong, one is the best team in the West in recent years, and the other is the first in the regular season this season. Whether it's offense or defense, it's not the same.
"In contrast, I am more optimistic about the Thunder. After these two seasons, Westbrook has become a mature leader. Regardless of his offensive performance, his organizational skills have always been very good. Under his leadership Next, Paul George and Anlo have shown their greatest scoring ability. And their defense is my favorite point. They have many defensive players: Robertson, George, Ann, including Westbrook and Adams Both can contribute a lot of energy in defense. Their defense is tenacious and passionate. The reason why they were able to sweep the opponent in the first two rounds is very crucial in this regard."
The commentary of this game is still the famous three old brothers Barkley, O'Neal and Smith. Every crucial game is basically this combination. Barkley supports the Thunder, and he has shown affirmation of the Thunder in many games this season. Of course, O'Neal stood on the opposite side of him as always. He is more optimistic about the Warriors.
"You have to believe in the strength of a championship team. And it's a team that has scored consecutive championships. The Thunder have performed well this season, but there are still some problems with the depth of their lineup. Whether it is offense or defense, the Warriors are They are not worse than the Thunder. And they are more experienced and know how to play such a game. I think it is difficult for Ann to play a normal scoring ability under Clay’s defense. Paul George and Durant’s match It’s also difficult to get an advantage like the last round."
With the argument of the three people, the players came out! The Warriors players who played away games took the lead, and Curry, as the head of the Warriors, is still the finale. But in this area, he is not the Warriors player with the most reaction. No applause, neither is a boo.
When Durant left the factory, he once again booed all Oklahoma fans. In fact, this season Durant returned to the Chesapeake Energy Arena and received a lot better treatment. Time did dilute the grievances between the two. Of course it is more important. The Thunder did not degenerate because of Durant's departure, especially after Paul George joined, everyone has gradually forgotten Durant's good. Without love, naturally there would be no hatred. People are fickle!
But this time it was a little different. As the biggest obstacle for the Thunder to hit the championship, it is impossible for the Warriors' players to play easily in Oklahoma City. Durant, as the focus of contradictions, naturally bears the brunt.
No amount of booing can keep up with the cheers of the home fans. When Curry played as the last Warriors player, the spotlight hit the other side of the court. Westbrook took his teammates and rushed out directly. Although the Thunder's home court appearance ceremony lacks some sense of ceremony, it is the most passionate.
When the players passed through, they gathered together and had a series of complicated interactions. Those movements, An Luo has not learned for two years. Westbrook and others came to the court. He took the others in a circle, encouraging and cheering each other up.
"Guys! For okc! For ourselves! Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
At the same time, the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena rang out the "okc" as usual. All Oklahoma fans in blue T-shirts stood up. Every night, they cheer for their players like this.
An Luo stood on the court, feeling a little excited. Although for this round of competition, they have prepared enough! But he still couldn't calm down. The main thing he needs to do is to score. Do everything possible to score! This is difficult, the other party can't give him a relaxing meeting. He is likely to encounter the same situation as the previous round. But in the last round, Paul George could take over offensively, and this one was very difficult. So An Luo must play more actively, to find and create opportunities to score.
The referee came on stage and the starting players of both sides followed.
The Thunder continued their previous starting lineup. Westbrook, Anlow, Paul George, Robertson and Adams. After a season of tempering, the combination of these people is the most stable and the most efficient.
Basically nothing has changed on the Warriors side, Curry, Thompson, Durant, and Green are all there. It's just that Green is not playing the fourth position, but the fifth position ~EbookFREE.me~ The remaining position is filled by Iguodala.
This set of lineup is really beyond people's expectations! Of the five players, only Durant in the third position is more than two meters tall. Thompson, Green and Iguodala all have 1.98 meters. It seems that Cole gave up his height and chose a lineup that is smaller, faster in conversion, and faster in attack and defense.
Therefore, the jump ball has become a duel between Adams and Durant. Adams did not let go of this opportunity to "bully" his old teammate. He jumped up and easily transferred the ball to Westbrook. After the latter got the ball, he immediately accelerated across the center line. Adams screened a step within the left three-point line. The Warriors' retreat was a bit chaotic. Curry, who had followed Westbrook, was blocked by Adams, and he didn't go around. But Green did not change defenses. The two did not communicate well, and they ran into each other.
The front of Westbrook suddenly became empty. He hesitated for a moment and chose to shoot. Although he himself understands that his three-pointer is not good, this opportunity is really great!
After a quick dribble in place, Westbrook threw the ball. The orange-red ball made a beautiful arc over the Chesapeake Energy Arena, hollowing it into the net!
