Thunder fast break!
Westbrook handed the ball to Li Muhua, and Durant was already rushing to the frontcourt. At this time, Li Muhua's mind clearly showed a passing route, and he subconsciously threw the ball vigorously with his right hand.

The ball was like a precise guided missile, passing straight between Kidd and Terry, and flew to the basket.

Durant didn't have time to react, the moment he was stunned, the basketball was already in his hand, and he took off directly.

"Boom!"

Durant dunks and scored.

".This is a link pass!"

"Yes, it's definitely a top five goal across the court!"

"There are very few people in the league who can make such accurate calls. LI is amazing!"

The two commentators roared and slapped the table excitedly.

Coach Carlisle stood up abruptly from his seat, transfixed.

The Mavericks attacked, Terry received a pass from Kidd, faced Westbrook with an emergency stop for a jumper, Ibaka grabbed the rebound, the Thunder launched another fast break, Li Muhua threw a long pass again, Westbrook received the ball A layup was made.

Passing through the crowd to the basket, Li Muhua's pass stunned the audience.

The Thunder succeeded in a series of quick counterattacks, Kidd frowned, took the ball and slowly entered the frontcourt, signaling to slow down.

In the high pick-and-roll, Terry broke through with the ball and turned around for a jumper. Li Muhua was not polite, and slapped Terry directly on the arm.

The foul was so hard that Terry grinned in pain, missed two free throws, and lost his standard.

Li Muhua broke through with the ball at the top of the arc, Durant ran back after covering, Nowitzki and Marion double-teamed at the waist.

At this time, the basket in the frontcourt was empty, Li Muhua flicked it casually, and Green caught the ball and made a backhand layup.

In the past, Li Muhua's role was more to connect the teams. In terms of offense, he passed the ball to open teammates in time. Under the oppressive defense of the Mavericks, the Thunder couldn't pass the ball at all.

Since entering the playoffs, it is difficult to play the ultimate cooperation in the face of this level of defense.

It's not that Westbrook doesn't have the ability to pass the ball, it's just that when he passes to open players, most of them are a bit like throwing the blame. During the Thunder's fast break, Li Muhua made consecutive assists, but he was like a court commander.

No need to observe the player's running position, and pass the ball to the corner where the defensive player does not pay attention.

Nowitzki caught the ball from the outside and made a fadeaway jumper, hitting the iron directly.

The Thunder played very fast, basically launching a counterattack as soon as they grabbed the rebound. The Thunder's three young men had good running awareness in the quick counterattack. Li Muhua's pass surprised everyone.

In the first quarter alone, Li Muhua went 3-for-1 and scored 3 points and 8 assists. Basically, while the Thunder grabbed defensive rebounds, Li Muhua was able to convert fast-break opportunities into assists.

The Thunder led by 5 point.

Nowitzki's hand feeling is very bad. I don't know if he touched Terry's butt during the free throw and cheated the Mavericks.

At the end of the first quarter, Coach Carlisle looked serious.

When the main players kept drinking Gatorade, Carlisle squatted down and kept tapping the tactical board, but he didn't know what was going on in his mind.

"No, their counterattack speed is too fast, we can't defend at all!"

After taking a few breaths, Nowitzki shook his head.

Carlisle came back to his senses and remained silent without saying anything.

The Thunder only won over [-] games last season, and they used quick counterattacks the most in the games. In fact, the main reason was that they did not have corresponding offensive tactics. The scoring mainly depended on the good physical fitness of young players, and they ran to the death of other teams. .

The situation is different now. Under the defensive conditions of the playoffs, the Thunder can still play extremely fast offensive and defensive transitions, and the key to this is Li Muhua, who can pass the ball throughout the court.

The speed of offensive and defensive transitions is the most important thing in the league.

There are not many players who can pass this kind of ball. At the superstar level, I am afraid that there are only LeBron James and Wade, who are physically strong enough to play true love with older women, and who are like orangutans. It is not surprising that the audience is connected.

It's just Li Muhua. A role player also has this ability.

Coach Carlisle looked at Kidd dejectedly, sending half of the team to get Kidd would not be able to attack.

Anyway, he is also an All-Star point guard. Facing the slaps of rookie point guards, Ji Bugong still maintains a calm attitude. Can't we have a heart, and we also play fast counterattacks, at least we can't fall behind at home .

How to defend, I also want to know how to defend.

Coach Carlisle really has nothing to say.

Is it all piled up to the basket to prevent the opponent from grabbing defensive rebounds, that is no different from death.

The Mavericks have a strong secondary offensive ability, and they all have the ability to grab rebounds in the starting lineup, even Kidd is no exception, but the Thunder's little black hands are dirtier than these old fritters on the court.

When grabbing rebounds, there are still flirts, which is a bit unplayable.

Krstic is such a good boy, even the soft guy who wants to kill his opponent with a single shot. Since the playoffs, the Thunder have kept changing their starters, and this time they went directly to Ibaka.

Playing defense instead of offense, Carlisle wondered how Brooks's brains had turned.

The Thunder also paid attention to rebounding. Except for Li Muhua, there were nine people piled up on the basket, jumping frogs one by one.

In this case, the Thunder's jumping talent directly crushed the Mavericks.

In the second quarter, Li Muhua rested almost on the court.

At halftime, the Thunder extended their lead to 10 points.

Li Muhua scored 5 points, 12 assists and 2 rebounds.

The Thunder's locker room cheered.

Durant touched his singed chin and raised questions:
"LI, I've been wanting to say it just now. I feel that your passing is different from before, but I can't say why it's different. It's just that the feeling of catching the ball is very comfortable!"

"Yes, I also noticed it, especially when I ran to the frontcourt, the ball flew over as soon as I turned back. Really, I only saw such a pass once!"

Harden echoed from the side, recalling that layup in the frontcourt, it felt great.

"James, don't talk nonsense. Tell me what's going on with your defense. As long as you are facing Sean, you will step aside. Is he your father?"

"I think he's ugly. Don't you think he looks like Russell when he shrinks his neck?"

"."

Li Muhua did not participate in the bragging between his teammates, but sat quietly on the bench.

"Kevin is right. My passing is different from before. No matter how hard I pass, it doesn't seem to consume much energy. On the contrary, there are more passing routes in my mind than before. Could it be that I have broken the bottleneck? !" Li Muhua frowned and thought about the reason secretly, probably that's all.
