Vol 3 Chapter 509: Grim Killer

Compared with the boring game of the previous game, the second game was much more exciting.
Whether it is the overall offensive and defensive rhythm of the two teams, or the confrontation between players, there are back and forth. From the score point of view, although the Thunder once led by double digits, they were soon chased by the Raptors. The rest of the game has been very anxious until the second half of the last quarter, finally there are two waves of relatively large offensive waves.
Whether it's the Raptors or the Thunder, they tacitly let the main players rest on the sidelines in the first half of the final quarter. This game was very intense and the players were also heavily loaded. Everyone knows that the final battle will be more difficult. Therefore, the players are seizing the time to recover their strength.
The Raptors were the first to charge on the offensive end, and Leonard made a three-pointer with a cold face. Lowry's state has not changed much, but he reduced his shots in this game and focused on organization and defense. In this way, the offensive end is basically concentrated in Leonard's hands.
The Thunder improved the defensive ability of their lineup to the extreme during this period. Under Donovan's unlimited defense tactics, the Thunder players are constantly changing with the Raptors. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for players like Gasol to provide stable help to Leonard, and all the pressure is concentrated on him.
Leonard showed his excellent offensive ability. From his first three-pointer after the timeout, the Thunder have not been able to restrain him.
Looking back, the Thunder began to attack. The basketball was passed to Paul George by Westbrook, who tried it, but without being able to ask Leonard to entangle him, he passed the ball back to Westbrook again.
After receiving the ball again, Westbrook squeezed Lowry directly from the right, and then accelerated to the basket. His first step was too sharp. It was like a flash of lightning passing by Lowry. The latter chose to give up after chasing for a while. After losing the best defensive position, he was able to create very little interference for Westbrook.
However, Gasol made up his defense. At the same time, Adams was also near the bottom line by Lorica. Regardless of the huge disparity between the two people, Lowry is not at a loss in strength, otherwise he would not be dubbed the nickname "Little Steel Cannon" by the fans.
Westbrook is not afraid of Gasol's defense at the bottom of the basket, but he is still quite cautious. He sticked it up, held the ball in his right hand, stretched out from the opponent's arm to the basket, and threw it up. The basketball hit the backboard and fell into the net bag.
As if returning to the first quarter of the game, Westbrook and Leonard met. But then, Westbrook failed to keep up.
Lowry took the ball around the three-point line and passed it to Siakam on the right elbow. The latter shot the ball, but hit the edge of the basket. Leonard rushed to the basket to grab an offensive rebound, and shook Grant from the basket to hit the ball into the basket.
This ball is very strong. You know, at that time, Gasol and Adams were both inside the basket. Leonard was already very rare to grab a rebound, and it was even rarer to score the ball in such a crowded environment. Leonard not only scored goals, but also caused Grant's foul. In the basket, once being shaken by the opponent, he will become very passive.
After standing on the free throw line to take the ball, the Raptors once again took the lead. It is very important to take the lead at this time. After all, there is not much time for the game. A slight lead may become the key to determining the outcome of the game. Donovan understands this truth. He stands on the sidelines and loudly reminds his players what to pay attention to.
The atmosphere in the arena suddenly became tense.
Westbrook advanced to the three-point line with the ball, observing the position of his teammates on the court. An Luo is still running non-stop, Danny Green is close behind, and he has no good chances. Paul George was waiting for an opportunity on the right, and Leonard was entangled with him like the whole game. Westbrook beckoned to Adams, who knew it, and Limala went to the top of the arc and made him a pick and roll. Under the cover of Adams, Westbrook easily broke through the Raptors' defense and rushed to the basket. In fact, whenever Westbrook makes a breakthrough with the ball, the Raptors' defense is not particularly tight. In Naas's view, letting Westbrook score is a more acceptable thing for him. So, they stared at Anlow and Paul George from start to finish.
Westbrook, who burst in, bypassed Gasol with a European step, then swiped the ball to complete the layup. Such a layup is very easy for him. However, this time he was not able to score. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com The basketball spins around the hoop, but still falls out.
After little Gasol grabbed the rebound, he immediately handed it to Lowry. The latter shot the ball forward and rushed towards his own basket. Siakam and Leonard followed this year. Of course, Paul George, Anlow, Grant and others also entered the defensive position in the first time.
Lowry took advantage of the Thunder's unsteady foothold and rushed directly to the basket, but under Westbrook's defense, he chose to hand the ball to Leonard behind him. Paul George watched the opponent break through the basket, stepping back in small steps. But Leonard just flicked a shot, and strode out his right foot harder on the ground, and the whole person withdrew back beyond the three-point line with that force. By the time Paul George reacted, Leonard had pulled up and threw the ball.
"Huh..."
In order to avoid Paul George's blocking, the shot and arc of this ball is very high. But this did not affect the final result. The basketball flew across the court and plunged into the net bag.
Leonard, who made this goal, could not see the slightest excitement. Of course, this guy will always have that indifferent face. However, Nas, who was on the sidelines, was very excited. He clenched a fist with his right hand and shook it vigorously, then clapped at the Raptors on the court. He is very satisfied with the performance of his players in this minute or so.
Donovan couldn't sit still, he called a timeout. After Leonard made a three-pointer, he felt a little uneasy. A super star has a great influence on the game. They can even change the result of the entire game by themselves. There is no doubt that Leonard is already a player of this level. His performance in the Eastern Conference finals has conquered everyone.
