The Thunder are actually pretty nascent.

For two consecutive years, some players were sent away through trades, and then a group of rookies were recruited through the draft. Among them, although the level of the undrafted pick Li Muhua was signed in, although the standard was very exciting, the shortcomings of poor physical strength and poor defensive confrontation were a headache. .

Westbrook is another core supported by the team. He has strong physical talent and good skills. Unfortunately, he has limited vision and focuses on collecting data.

In the Thunder's offense, only Durant is strong, and Green is the all-around fighter with endurance. If Krstic is counted, the Thunder does not have many players who really have a stable offense.

The offensive ability is good and bad, and they are not good at playing against strong defensive teams. This is the biggest drawback of the Thunder.

Before the season, many experts commented that the Thunder may have to maintain a belly, but it was not a mockery.

Li Muhua passed the ball, Harden hit the iron again, but his own offense didn't come through, and he hit the iron with a mid-range shot. In the remaining few minutes, the Thunder's offense was not good and felt cold.

The Thunder did not expand the score as expected.

At the end of the first half, the Thunder only led by 7 points.

After the players left the field, ESPN's beautiful reporter grabbed Brooks and asked about the Thunder's performance, while the players returned to the locker room.

The score is leading, but the Thunder players are not happy.

So uncomfortable.

Li Muhua covered his face with a towel. This game was hard to beat. It just felt very strange. I don't know what kind of magic old Nelson used. The Thunder players were under a lot of psychological pressure. The problem was Ford. The center is the home court of the Thunder.

Instead, they were affected by psychological warfare at home, which frustrated the home team players.

"How the hell did they do it?"

Westbrook asked angrily, but no one could answer.

At this time, Brooks came back, and when he saw the expressions of the players, he immediately understood what was going on.

After Brooks and Kalamanda have discussed, gather the players together.

"Guys, just smile, there's nothing wrong with this game!"

Yes, everyone knows that it is not difficult to win the Warriors, but it is difficult to say if this kind of psychological warfare continues.

Kalamanda rarely smiled on the sidelines. It is very rare. The man who is privately called the devil by the players actually smiled. It is very surprising. Although the players complained in their hearts, it is undeniable that Kalamanda is a good and dedicated coach. .

"The key to this game is morale. The Warriors' offense is very powerful, and they are also in the upper reaches of the league. The problem is that we are the same. Compared with this, the offensive ability is actually the same. It's just that when we score, the opponent We are also scoring, and we still can’t open the score gap. If it is still the same in the second half, then we must be the ones who lose in the end!”

After Kalamanda finished speaking, Brooks nodded and took over the conversation: "Yes, our offense itself is fine, but old Nelson gave us the illusion that we are about to lose or the offense cannot be beaten, but guys , Our recent record is very good, and we can say that we have the advantage against the Warriors, I really don’t know, what troubles you is the confidence to win? Or the idea of ​​self-deprecation?”

Li Muhua thought about it again, the coaches were really right.

"Fuck them to death, I won't be able to beat them anymore!"

"That's right. Originally, I wanted to call them a few fouls. I was afraid of making mistakes, so I could only scare them with my good three-pointers. If it weren't for the problem with my state today, I might have won the game long ago!"

"They are not our opponents at all!"

After listening to the other players, Durant stretched out his arms: "Guys, let them taste our strength. I don't want to play so uncomfortable. It's too embarrassing. The problem is that we have always been ahead!"

"Yeah, we have no reason to be so bothered!"

"It will make them look good!"

Li Muhua patted the excited Harden, and couldn't help sighing: "James, it's fine if others yell, but what are you yelling at, with your ability to throw a three-pointer, touch a few pieces and destroy them." Their rhythm is really stronger than anything else, as for the touch on the outside, let’s forget it for now, I think if you want to throw, then go back to the training ground and talk about it!”

This lesson made Harden feel as if he had eaten a poop, and his teammates laughed out loud. Seeing that the players' state had finally regained their spirits, Brooks nodded with satisfaction.

Bantering with each other can help brighten up the locker room.

Although Brooks is a head coach, he can play with the players.

The second half begins quickly.

The spectators at home were still very excited. The score was not drawn, which showed that there was still suspense between the two sides. The real highlight of this game was in the second half.

The Thunder suddenly changed their offensive style. Westbrook broke through directly after receiving the ball and caused a foul by Monta Ellis.

Yes, Westbrook played singles from the very beginning, and the ball was very fast. Monta Ellis had no idea that Westbrook would find a gap during the confrontation.

"Russell did a great job!"

Players on the home team's bench stood up and waved towels.

The on-site commentator was a little confused about the situation.

"I don't know what happened to the Thunder, it was just a normal foul, oh, it was Russell Westbrook's drive that caused Monta Ellis' foul, no matter where it was, it was a foul. What's there to cheer about, are these kids crazy?"

Westbrook is generally a gentleman in playing games and rarely commits fouls. In the eyes of Westbrook, Harden's behavior is very contemptible.

Of course, as a fashionista in the NBA, Westbrook has always had a special taste, wearing the most fancy clothes to disgust others.

Westbrook is very angry. He is famous in the league not because of his skills, but because of fashion. Therefore, Westbrook intends to prove himself, going further and further on the road of brushing, and never thought of turning back.

From the perspective of action, Westbrook's foul was very blunt, and his elbow was almost glued to Monta Ellis' face. If the referee hadn't blown it so fast, I'm afraid it would be an offensive foul in the next second.

This foul allowed the Thunder to get a free throw opportunity. Similarly, the rhythm of the game on both sides was out of order.

Looking back, Monta Ellis hit the iron in the mid-range shot, Westbrook grabbed the rebound, but did not launch a fast break, but slowly entered the frontcourt.

The Warriors' style of play is known for being fast. To disrupt the rhythm of the Warriors, you must first not be led by the Warriors.
