Chapter 887: [Half a catty 2, peak matchup]

The Eastern Conference Finals also ended with a total score of 4-1. The Wizards eliminated the Raptors and advanced to the Finals for two consecutive years.
Durant's strength is not really blown out. Otto Burt, DeMarre Carroll and DeRozan, the three big swingers of the Raptors, can't limit his offense by single defense, they can only be included.
In order to balance the ball, Durant did not shoot a lot, but the hit rate and efficiency were very high. He can play both ball and no ball, so that Wall and Thompson can also play a role, is the first core of the Wizards.
After joining the Wizards, Durant averaged 33.4 minutes per game during the regular season, only 16.5 shots, a good combination of sudden points and shots, averaging 25.4 points, 8.3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.6 blocks, shooting rate as high as 53.7%, three-pointers The rate is also 39.2%, and the free throw percentage is 87%.
At this point, he is unlikely to win the scoring title, but he can better help the team win, with an efficiency value of 27.7. Westbrook, second only to the triple-double, ranks second in the league and is also one of the regular season MVP contenders.
The media exaggerated Durant's leadership temperament, while playing selflessly, Westbrook unfortunately lay down the gun.
People began to believe that Durant left the Thunder is inevitable, Westbrook has strength, but is too independent, always want to be in the limelight, be the boss. Durant was exhausted both physically and mentally in Thunder, and he had long lost his mind, but it was just a question of where to go. The Wizards' tactical system, overall strength and atmosphere all meet his requirements, but this choice once made him a target, even if he went to his hometown team.
The discussion on the Internet was more intense, and it was mostly Westbrook who delayed Durant. Last summer, a group of James Mi "wei Du Zhan", now, a group of Du Mi hope idols get the regular season MVP, began to "Turtle Operation".
Anyway, Wei Shao's rotten playoffs are obvious to everyone. Don't say that Durant and Wei Shao are brothers. Wei Shao has never regarded Durant as a brother. It is in his favor to leave, otherwise how could he get the field? All three pairs?
There was no Durant last season, and the Wizards fought six games with the Clippers. The Wizards added a superstar this season. In the fourth place, they traded in a three-point Markieff Morris. In the middle of the season, the Wizards also signed point guard Brandon Jennings with a minimum salary. The overall strength is better than last season. Much stronger.
So far in his career, Jennings has played for the Raptors, Bucks, Pistons, Magic, Knicks and other teams. The rookie season was smooth and smooth, and he has been wandering since then.
This is caused by his style of play. He likes to fight chaotically. After two injuries, his condition also declined significantly. This season, he played 58 games for the Knicks, averaging 25 minutes per game, can get 8.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 4.9 assists, but it is an excellent substitute.
The lineup of the two sides is competing, half a catty, and the media is actively speculating, saying that this is the closest final in the last ten years.
Yang Rui did not dare to despise his opponent, discuss tactics with the coaching staff, and lead the team to train seriously. The Wizards really have the strength to threaten the Clippers.
Durant and Thompson are both draft players. On the Clippers side, Curry, Danny Green, Raven, and Booker are also drafters. The two sides build teams in a similar way. The Wizards invited Thibodeau to be a "Jerry coach."
The ESPN team of experts analyzed the finals and concluded that the win rate was 46, and the Clippers still dominated. Players are similar in strength, the Clippers' biggest advantage is the head coach, Thibodeau has never won Yang Rui in the playoffs.
In the first game, the well-prepared Clippers made a good start at home and won the Wizards 18 points. Yang Rui really suppressed Thibodeau in tactical arrangements.
Relying on the combination of inside and outside, Curry scored 35 points and 10 assists in the first game and finished with 15 points and 8 assists.
Compared to the guard matchup, the small forward's matchup result is even more surprising.
Brother Alphabet played 37 minutes, 11 of 19 shots, 7 of 5 free throws, scored 27 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists; Durant was in poor condition, 6 of 18 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 13 of 13 free throws, cut He scored 26 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.
Durant lost, and his overall shooting percentage was only 33.3%. Most of his free throws were not caused by breakthroughs, but turned around and swung his arms around. This trick tricked the two brothers of Alphabet and Covington.
After the game, Brother Alphabet won unanimous praise from the major media, everyone is optimistic about his future, he has also been very good on the defensive end, and can defend all the swing stars in the league.
However, the letter brother and Durant are still slightly inferior. In the second game, he was defended by Durant on the offensive end, only 6 of 16 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, 17 points and 7 rebounds, without assists.
Durant made adjustments in accordance with the coaching arrangements, instead of playing mainly without the ball, he didn't hold the ball and played the letter brother at any time, and he also gave Wall a cover at any time to help his teammates play.
Durant reduced his shots, played 38 minutes, made 10 of 17 shots, 5 of 8 3-pointers, 8 of 8 free throws, scored 33 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.
Thompson made 8 of 16 shots, 5 of 10 3-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws to get 23 points; Wall made 6 of 11 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws to get 18 points and 11 assists.
The three Wizards of the Wizards demonstrated their power together, leading the team to win 114 to 108 away, with a total score of 1:1.
Returning to the Wizards home, Durant continued to play in the MVP class in the third game, 13 of 22 shots, 4 of 8 3-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, 33 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks.
This time, the letter brother was completely suppressed, only 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists.
Durantela's move from the periphery to cover Wall is not good defense. The letter brother can't ignore the defender's breakthrough. After all, Wall is one of the fastest players in the league. If the defense is changed, Durant can catch the ball in the periphery. Against the guard jumper.
The Wizards blossomed more, Wall and Thompson also scored 20+. The team scored 6 double figures, winning 132 to 118, with a total score of 2 to 1.
The Wizards are not so accurate every day. One day later, the Clippers won 116 to 105 under Curry ~EbookFREE.me~ equalized.
Curry made 7 three-pointers, scored 37 points and 6 assists, and defended Wall with only 13 points. He is in the peak period and is not so easy to beat.
The Clippers returned to the home court and won the Battle of the Heavenly King Mountain. The two sides played very fiercely. Only after overtime did they win or lose. Lavin hit a three-point quasi-killer in 2.8 seconds. After that, Thompson took the ball and forced a three-pointer. Facing Lavin's interference, he lost the buzzer.
Curry attracted a double-pointer at a critical moment, and Lavin showed his big heart. He felt very good throughout the season. He was also the team's best sixth man in the playoffs, so Yang Rui sent in the key attack. He played, useless Huang Ama Tie Lin lost outside the finals this year.
However, the better the performance, the harder it is for Lavin to renew the contract. The new agreement has a high luxury tax. Even if there is money, Yang Rui does not want to pay it, because there are potential newcomers who can replace Lavin.
In the sixth game, the Clippers felt an obvious home whistle. The Wizards played harder on the defensive end. They won 118 to 113 at home and the two sides entered the tie-break.
There is not much controversial punishment in this game, but the ball can be blown or not, the referee judged to be in favor of the Wizards, Silva hopes that both sides enter the tie-break.
Durant continued to play a central role, making 10 of 18 shots, 4 of 7 3-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, scoring 31 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists.
On the side of the Clippers, center Jokic broke a triple-double of 25 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists, but at the last moment, Yang Rui chose to reuse Whiteside. Jokic had poor defense and his playing time should be controlled at 30 Within minutes, this is his weakness and he must improve to become a star.
The two sides returned to the same starting line, and fans around the world began to pay attention to this peak matchup.
