Chapter 215.

The opponents in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs are all released.

The first round was all sweeps or gentlemen's sweeps, and the results were quick.

The No. [-] Rockets in the West played against the only Pelicans in the second round.

Warriors and Thunder are rivals.

Westbrook and Durant met in the playoffs for the first time since their split.

The day came so fast!
In the Eastern Conference, only Digiman and the Heat were able to decide the outcome. Digiman successfully rebuilt and defeated the Heat 4:1 to enter the second round.

The Eastern powerhouses, including the Raptors, Celtics and Cavaliers, have not yet completed the series.

The West took the lead in opening the second round of the series.

On April 4, the Warriors ushered in a challenge from the Thunder at home.

The Warriors rank second in the West in the regular season and have home court advantage in the second round. For the same reason, if the No. [-] and No. [-] in the West meet in the Western Conference Finals, No. [-] in the West will have home court advantage.

The regular-season standings determine where home-court advantage goes in all postseason games.

The finals are also a record decision for the two teams.

So even if it is a paddling team, the regular season must also maintain a high ranking, otherwise the playoffs will not be particularly easy to play.

Entering the playoffs, the Warriors stopped paddling, showing the strength of the defending champion.

In the game against the Spurs, none scored less than 110 points. The offense of the Tsunami Brothers, especially Durant's super high efficiency, made it very easy for the Warriors to win every game.

Perhaps no team can easily beat the serious Warriors at present.

Even the Thunder, which can draw [-]-[-] with the Warriors in the regular season.

Westbrook saw that Durant was still obviously emotionally fluctuating, and he still wanted to play the Warriors in the way of winning the regular season, which obviously didn't work.

Westbrook will flank Durant whenever he gets the chance, which is not a pre-determined tactic.

Facing the Warriors who also have three offensive strengths, and have played against the Thunder from the board alone, and their role players are stronger than the Thunder, Donovan couldn't think of a better defensive strategy, so he could only use the conventional man-to-man and infinite switching defenses.

It is a good idea to respond to all changes with the same, but there is no way out of the way.

So Westbrook's behavior can't be said to have destroyed the system, but it is certain to give up the vacancy.

And Westbrook is marking Curry, who has no less firepower than Durant. This style of play is undoubtedly setting himself on fire.

If the efficiency of the regular season can still be obtained, if you use offense to play offense, you may be able to have a high score, and the fans like to see the result very much.

But the opponent has strengthened both offensive and defensive aspects, and the Thunder has no way to continue to strengthen the offensive firepower, and is beaten helplessly.

Among them, a wave of 26:41 was played in the second quarter.

No matter how much willpower you have, no matter how much you have the desire to win, facing such an invincible opponent, no matter how hard you try, there is little hope.

If you fight hard from the beginning, maybe the only point of victory may still appear, and after halftime, there is only despair.

Without bloodshed, the Warriors easily won G1.

The personal efficiency is not high, and he has not successfully organized his teammates. Westbrook himself restricted himself to death, and even made the team a pit.

Of course, Westbrook is not the only one who is pitted.

George mainly defended Durant. Under severe physical exertion, the offense was also very broken. He scored 19 points and 5 rebounds on 17 of 6 shots.

Li Cha was stuck by Thompson, he would rather foul than be attacked by Li Cha, and he didn't get more possessions. Li Cha only made 10 of 5 shots and scored 15 points and 2 rebounds.

At 101:123, the Thunder finally lost by 22 points, which disappointed the fans.

Originally, I had imagined the Dewey war where Mars hit the earth, but neither the Big Three nor the Tsunami Brothers' offensive drama was staged.

I only saw a game that resembled ravages.

It's no wonder that the Thunder, the Warriors are in full swing at this time, Durant deliberately cut his salary in order to stay, and there are players on the team's bench who can get other teams to start.

If it hadn't been cut off by James in 16, the Warriors would have completed three consecutive championships and created a new dynasty.

Therefore, the goal of the Warriors this year is not just to defend the title, but to accumulate strength for the three consecutive championships and the establishment of a dynasty next year.

The Cavaliers' Owen James has been disassembled. The Big Three, like the Thunder, lack the support of role players, so there is nothing to fear.

The only threat is the Rockets. If they can pass the Western Conference finals, the Warriors can basically defend their title.

If Westbrook knew that he was underestimated in this way, he would probably blow up the basketball directly.

On April 4, G30 continued at Oracle Arena in San Francisco.

The Thunder learned from it, especially Donovan, who has seriously managed the team. First of all, Westbrook's reasonable requirements for playing the ball will definitely not be reduced, but he still hopes that Westbrook can create more opportunities for his teammates.

G1 only had 3 assists, which should not appear in the game data of an All-Star point guard at all.

Westbrook is not a player who disobeys orders, it's just that he just defeated the Jazz in G1, coupled with his eagerness to express himself, Westbrook failed to control himself.

The G2 Thunder increased the team's organization, allowing Samsung to have enough ball possession and shots by transferring the ball from the outside.

In the last game, Li Cha took too few shots, and he was the team's most stable scoring point. This must be admitted.

In G2, Li Cha got more chances and brought more points to the team, but the Warriors' home court is not so easy to beat.

With the overwhelming pressure from the fans, coupled with the already excellent Warriors players, and... a little help from other off-courts, the Thunder came back home for the second time.

But at least this time it played a good game.

威斯布鲁克拿到20分8篮板11助攻的准三双数据,乔治也有22分6篮板,李茶拿到25分2助攻,三人和海啸兄弟相比没有差多少。

The Tsunami Brothers scored 73 points together, which is only 6 points more.

But the gap between role players is a bit big.

102:109, the Thunder at least played what they should have.

Back in Oklahoma, it's already May.

The temperature began to rise, and people began to be more restless. It is such an enjoyable thing to watch a wonderful basketball game and sweat all over the body at this time.

But Thunder fans did not enjoy such a refreshing feeling.

G3 started on May 5, and the East finally finished the first round of the series. The Raptors, Cavaliers, and Celtics all broke through the first round without any risk.

The Cavaliers and Pacers even reached the tiebreaker, which was never expected.

The Pacers are just Oladipo who can be regarded as an All-Star alone. The topic of James' death has begun to spread wildly. The opponent is the second round of the Eastern Conference champion.

The Celtics' second round against the digital people was almost overwhelmingly supportive.

Obviously, the second-round matchup between the Raptors and the Cavaliers is more attractive to fans, and the G3 between the Thunder and the Warriors has no longer received media attention.

The Thunder who returned to the home court did not succeed in pulling back a victory, and the result was similar to that of G2.

0:3, the Thunder is already standing on the edge of the cliff.

The Warriors hold 4 match points, and it is almost impossible to reverse the game. The media estimates that the probability of promotion is 99%.

The fans have also given up hope to achieve higher goals in this year's playoffs.

But the success of the team's team building can still put hope in the next year.

Westbrook is not reconciled to failing like this.

Asked Donovan to bring the teammates together, and Westbrook gave a speech.

The purpose of the speech is to invite everyone to work hard. You can win the Warriors in the regular season, but be swept in the playoffs. This will leave a bad impression on yourself, and you may even be habitually afraid of your opponents in the playoffs in the future.

To face up to the existence of the opponent, it is powerful but not invincible; to face up to the existence of oneself, there will be opportunities in hard work.

Westbrook's heartfelt speech inspired the whole team. Even if the whole world is not optimistic about the Thunder, they must win a victory in the hands of the Warriors, at least one.

Come one game at a time.

On May 5th, the Thunder finally found themselves in G4, fighting desperately, never letting go of rebounds or floor balls, defending tirelessly, switching defenses indefinitely, and attacking with enthusiasm.

The substitute played the strength of the starter, and the starter played the state of a star.

The Warriors did not respond to the Thunder's attack, and the Warriors chose to avoid it in the face of the Thunder's last stand.

In order to defend the title and to be the strongest opponent in the next round, the Warriors gave up G4.

Sweeping will only cause more hatred between the two teams. Save your strength to avoid injury and deal with the next opponent. The Warriors' calculations are very loud and their planning is very good.

Just less blood.

There was a bit of a storm among the fans.

But this storm has not expanded, because the duel between the Raptors and the Cavaliers is moving in an incredible direction.

The Cavaliers, who thought they would be swept by the Raptors, have now beaten the Raptors 2:0. You know, the first two games were the Raptors' home games.

The Raptors not only lost their home court advantage, but also completely lost the initiative.

At this time, the Thunder and Warriors' G5 returned to the Warriors' home court.

The Warriors still hold 3 match points, but the probability of promotion has dropped to 78%. The abandonment of G4 tactics made some media think that the Warriors may be discouraged by this and cannot regain the feeling of winning.

It's a pity that the Warriors have been releasing water all year, and they can also find a way to win in the water, and they cannot fulfill their wishes.

It is inevitable for the Thunder players who got vented in G4 to come to the away game to decline.

Even if they want to fight again, they are powerless. They have lost their most brave state, and the Thunder can't stop the Warriors from advancing with 100% energy.

4:1, the Warriors won the second round of the series and entered the Western Conference Finals.

The opponent is the Rockets who also defeated the Pelicans 4:1.
