Chapter 735: [Harden grabs the ball and has no regrets]


The Thunder returned to home, playing worse in the third game, the collective shooting feeling of three less, only Durant shot more than 40%.
The Thunder overall made 4 of 18 3-pointers. Durant and Westbrook were 1 of 4 from the field. Harden was even worse. All 4 shots were lost. Substitute Dai Quinn Cook made two 3-pointers and scored 6 points.
With such an outside performance, the Thunder certainly couldn't break through the Clippers' defense, losing 83 to 101 and falling behind with a total score of 0 to 3.
On the Clippers side, Paul reduced his shots, 4 of 8 shots, 1 of 3 3-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, only 11 points and 13 assists; Griffin hit a low percentage, only 11 of 24 shots, 4 of 8 free throws , Got 26 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists.
Battier unexpectedly stood out, playing 38 minutes, 6 of 9 shots, 4 of 6 3-pointers, 2 of 1 free throws, and 17 points and 4 rebounds.
This Battier dared to attack in a misplaced position. The empty-cut layup caused Ibaka to foul. He faced Perkins twice and made a breakthrough. He made a one-stop shot and hit.
When the veteran is in good condition, there will be unexpected performance.
Before the start of the fourth game, news broke out for the Clippers. Some media said that Harden was dissatisfied with the ball and quarreled with his teammates in the locker room. It is likely to leave the Thunder in the summer.
According to the news, Harden was very disgusted with Westbrook, thinking that Wei Shao was too independent. He was unwilling to shoot only ten times per game, nor was he always willing to be a substitute, so he began to fight for the right to play in the playoffs. Shot. He has great strength and is eager to play the starter to maximize his strength!
Westbrook averaged 20.4 shots in the playoffs, Durant 19.1, Harden 10.7, 0.6 more shots than the regular season called Harden grab the ball? Too bad to bully Harden!
Some media are really afraid of chaos in the world, and open their eyes to talk nonsense. When Yang Rui was a white-collar worker on the website in the previous life, he has read a lot of news in this area, and his memory is fresh.
Not only Harden, in Yang Rui’s previous life, when Durant left the Thunder in 16 years, some news broke out. In fact, the relationship between Durant and Westbrook is not as harmonious as people think. Staying together is the most fundamental reason Durant chose to leave, not what people think of chasing the championship.
There are even more news stories. In fact, Durant had communicated with the management of the team in 2011, begging to trade Wei Shao out of the team, and he did not want to stay with Wei Shao to play. From then on until 16 years, Durant accumulated much grievance, he was not crazy...
In fact, Durant clarified several times in an interview not because Wei Shao left the Thunder, he just wanted to win the championship.
This kind of news came out that Harden didn't get more rights. He made 5 of 11 shots, 3 of 8 3-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, 19 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals.
Durant made 13 of 24 shots, 3 of 6 3-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, 32 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.
The two performed very well, but Westbrook lost the Thunder's good game. In the last quarter, he made 0 of 7 shots and scored two points with only free throws. He dared to take the ball if he could not make a shot and played a game that delighted his opponent.
He played 43 minutes, only 4 of 20 shots, 5 of 3 3-pointers, 11 of 13 free throws, 19 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. With such a 20% shooting rate, and a quarter of the team's shots, the Clippers are hard to lose.
In this series, Westbrook is very difficult to break through. He will be caught in the vicinity of the penalty area and can only face Paul. He made a strong vote under interference. This is not his strength.
Westbrook's playoffs in recent years have been a typical example of low shooting percentages and high turnovers.
In the 11-year playoffs, he averaged 39% field goal percentage and 4.6 turnovers. After three rounds this year, he averaged 42.4% field goal percentage and 4.3 turnovers. He also averaged only 5.8 assists per game, not in the league. A point guard's assist-to-turnover ratio is worse than him.
On the Clippers side, Curry, Paul, Griffin, and Korver scored 20+, six of them scored in double figures, defeated the Thunder 123 to 106, and swept to the finals.
After the game, the Thunder coach Brooks attributed the loss to the Clippers' lineup being too strong, and offensive and defensive.
In fact, Brooks would like to say that Fisher's defense is too bad, but in the end it was held back. At this time, it seems too unsatisfactory to blame the loss on the veteran of the bench, although this is true.
Because the Fisher organization was so poor, the Thunder couldn't make Wei Shao rest at all, otherwise it would be hard to drive the ball through halftime; Fisher performed worse at the 2nd position and could only find a confrontation as much as possible, which would not interfere with the shooting.
Korver only played 23 minutes today, 7 of 11 shots, 7 of 8 3-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and 23 points, no rebounds and no assists. Korver's style of play was to catch the ball and four of his three-pointers were against Fisher.
At this time, Brooks couldn't think of what he would do to the old fish, and what damage the old fish would bring to the Thunder.
In Yang Rui's previous life, who destroyed the Thunder that just reached the finals? This issue has been discussed for many years.
Some fans threw the pot to General Manager Presti, thinking he had caused Harden to run away to save money. But after the Thunder awarded Harden a four-year, 54-million-dollar contract and was rejected, Harden offered to want 58 million for four years, and his psychological price was not high.
The Thunder traded Harden to the Rockets. In the end, his contract amount was 80 million for 5 years. Harden cried when he got the news. He hopes to stay in the Thunder and play for the championship next season.
Some fans think that Harden actually wants to be a leader, and he does not want to stay in the Thunder's position to accept the youngest. Many people have forgotten that there was actually a figure looming in the news at that time.
Throughout the 2011-12 season, especially the playoffs, the rumors of Harden's fight for the ball have never disappeared. The most powerful news is that Harden was angered by Fisher in the dressing room~EbookFREE.me ~Fisher's role is very suspicious. He often appears as a tutor with three minors, but there is only one criticism, that is Harden.
What is ridiculous is that on the Lakers, Fisher dared not criticize Kobe, and even Love, Roal Deng and others never listened to him. To the Thunder, Fisher continued to destroy the atmosphere in the team, as if to become the locker room leader.
The general manager Presti from Spurs was extremely concerned about the atmosphere in the locker room, and finally sent Harden away, overwhelming the last straw of the camel, not the extra 4 million, but the so-called "harden" in the locker room Complain about the news of teammates in China, which was exposed because of Fisher.
Fisher is just a player who will please the boss. In his career, he has always survived by this rule. When it came to the Thunder, he chose Durant and Westbrook to suppress Harden. It was his remarks that made Presti wrong that Harden was about to become a tumor and eventually sent him away.
In Yang Rui’s previous life, during the time the Knicks coached, Fisher fully exposed his true face. He tried to continue to help the team. But coaching and player are two different things. Eventually, he and Anthony made troubles. Turned over and was personally dismissed by "Zen Master" Jackson. And because his character is recognized as inferior, he will not be the head coach in the future.
In this life, Fisher still let the Thunder break out of the infighting news. The Thunder did not enter the finals, and Harden will be sent off 90%. After the weak Thunder, he will no longer be able to reach the finals, and it is also a matter of time before Durant runs away without seeing the champion hope.
In fact, the biggest mistake of the Thunder management is that Fisher should not be signed in the middle of this year. Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
