Vol 3 Chapter 494: Unpredictable

For those bystanders, the more anxious the game, the more exciting it often means, and it is also a game that most fans prefer. But for the players and coaches on both sides of the game, this is not a comfortable thing.
Anlow played 10 minutes in the third quarter, as did Westbrook and Paul George, who both only had a rest for more than 2 minutes. Donovan couldn't help it. At that time, replacing the substitute players in his hands was just digging holes for himself. Once discouraged, it may be even harder to play in the fourth quarter. In contrast to the Warriors, Durant alone can hold up the entire offensive end. Although Curry and Thompson were also on the court, they spent most of the second half of the game paddling. Their role is more to contain the Thunder's defense and give Durantla space. Compared to people like An Luo, it is much easier.
Donovan also noticed this, so at the beginning of the fourth quarter, he put on a lineup of almost pure substitute players. The only starting player to play is An Luo. Relatively speaking, he has more energy than Westbrook and Paul George. After all, it was the person who opened the hook, especially on the offensive end, An Luo consumed very little physical strength. This is also a slow-down strategy. An Luo's task is to try to stabilize the current situation and buy Westbrook and others some rest time. Wait until the second half, and then show off.
On the Warriors side, Green and Thompson brought Cook, Jerebko and Rooney on the stage. Compared to the Thunder, the Warriors' lineup is much stronger, with both offense and defense.
However, An Luo did a good job. He gave Westbrook and others a five-minute break. An Luo's performance is undoubtedly, basically he scored most of the points. But other players did not live up to Donovan's expectations. Kanter and Noel played at the same time, it was Noel's bold attempt. As a result, in these five minutes, the Thunder grabbed 10 more rebounds than the Warriors! Under this circumstance, Anluo got more mobile phone meetings and naturally got more points.
Of course, there are still drawbacks. When these two big men appeared on the court at the same time, the Thunder's offense began to lean towards positional warfare. It's hard to play that kind of quick rotations that cover each other's offense. What's more, facing the fast-paced offensive system of the Warriors, the inside players are exhausted on the defensive end, and their physical strength is very heavy. But fortunately, they only need to persist for a while.
When the game went to the 40th minute, the Warriors Durant and Curry returned to the game. This means that the Warriors are about to launch a total attack! Sure enough, Curry was radical when he came up. He first used the screen of his teammates to take a wide shot from the left three-point line and made a clean three-pointer. Then he used a long-range long pass to assist Durant in the counterattack to complete a one-handed buckle. All of a sudden the point difference was approached to only 2 points!
At this time, Westbrook and Paul George could no longer sit still. Of course, Donovan will not let them continue to rest on the sidelines. With a big wave of his hand, the last two Thunder starters who have not yet returned to the game returned to their positions.
Westbrook, who was given a relatively sufficient rest time, directly launched the charge. After he brought the ball to the top of the arc, a crossover swayed to Curry's right, his left leg slammed into force, and strode past the opponent. No one can stop Westbrook rushing up. Green was able to make up the defense in time, but Westbrook walked around in a European step, then picked with his right hand and easily scored the ball.
Now that the Warriors put their defensive power on Anlow and Paul George, then Westbrook must stand up and do something. It may not be able to relieve the pressure on Anluo and Paul George, but at least it can score.
Looking back, the Warriors' offense was also targeted by the Thunder. With the efforts of all the Thunder players, they have almost no chance to shoot outside the three-point line. Curry and Thompson have been running, but they have been unable to get rid of the strict defense of the Thunder players. Westbrook and Anlo have been following them, even if they were blocked by their teammates' screens, but there will still be other Thunder players to follow. Except for hard casting, there is no great opportunity. But when Curry tried two misses, he didn't make another shot like that.
At this time, everything fell on Durant again. His singles have repeatedly helped the Warriors tide over difficulties. In this crucial battle tonight, it has become a life-saving straw for the Warriors.
Durant himself is willing to do such a thing. He began to take over the Warriors' offense. Although his three-point shooting rate tonight is not ideal, his shooting from the three-point line is very accurate. Coupled with his dislocation of physical conditions, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is simply unmatched! Whether facing strikers like Paul George and Grant, or big insiders like Adams, he is comfortable. Durant rarely makes any particularly exciting moves in the game. Most of the time, he just shakes, plays twice, and then pulls up and shoots. But it can score!
Unexpectedly, the decisive stage of the Battle of Tianwanshan would become a duel between Westbrook and Durant. However, although these two people are playing very lively, but the players who decide the outcome of the game are different.
When the game entered the final minute and a half, Curry finally seized the opportunity to score a goal outside the three-point line. This ball directly helped the Warriors tie the score. Subsequently, Westbrook received the ball from the backcourt and advanced. Donovan sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and did not interfere with the players' offense.
Looking at Curry standing one meter away from him, Westbrook did not hesitate and chose to break through. He has scored 16 points in the fourth quarter and is very efficient. But the Warriors did not change their defensive strategy, still restricting Anlow and Paul George.
But Westbrook's layup this time has not been able to score. Green's defense is still very threatening. Although he did not directly cover the ball, he still defended it.
However, the rebound was followed by Adams and flew out of the crowd. As the basketball flew over, there was a mess on the court. In the end, basketball came to An Luo's hands. But he didn't grab it himself, but was slapped by Paul George. Fortunately, An Luo is ready to shoot at any time. After receiving the ball, without even thinking about it, Zhang Shou threw the ball out.
In such a fierce game, the opportunity is fleeting. Anluo will not miss it!
