super heavy artillery

Chapter 394

Under James' initiative, the Thunder's leading advantage was slowly eroded.By the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers overtook the score with 29:28.

An Luo didn't show too much double-eyed performance in this section.Compared with the previous two games, he did have fewer chances.After all, in the first two games, the Thunder had the ball in his hands alone, and he could play however he wanted.

Paul George has yet to find his offensive form.He made 5 of 1 shots in the first quarter, giving the Cavaliers a chance to overtake the score.Of course, this problem cannot be attributed to Paul George alone.After all, that's the way Donovan's setup works.Westbrook fared slightly better.However, the number of times he shot is relatively much less.

In the second quarter, Donovan still let Paul George go first.In fact, An Luo's effect may be better.However, Paul George's ability to break through and cause damage is much stronger.The combination of An Luo and Westbrook will have a better effect.What's more, Paul George also needs more opportunities to find his status.

Adams joined Paul George on the court, with Felton, Ferguson and Huestis coming off the bench.

As soon as he came up, Hood of the Cavaliers made a three-pointer from the outside.The quality of Nance Jr.'s handoffs and screens is quite high, and Hood's shots are also very accurate.Judging from this situation, the Cavaliers players continued their fiery touch in the first quarter.

Looking back, Felton took the ball and handed it to Paul George from outside the left three-point line.The latter tried it, and Jeff Green was tight so he didn't come by himself, and the slam passed to his teammate at the right elbow.After receiving the ball, Huestis hit Korver with his back, hit it twice, turned around, and gave the ball to Felton, who was in a better position at the top of the arc.

This time the Thunder played very patiently.That's exactly what Donovan wanted to see.Whether it is the starting lineup or the substitute lineup, he hopes to see the players play according to the tactics they have arranged.Pass the ball more, run more, find the one with the best chance, and score.

After Felton received the ball, Zhang Shou scored a three-pointer.

Next, the two sides entered a state of mutual explosion.The offensive efficiency of the players is very high, and the scores on the court are rising alternately.Of course, this is due to the poor defense of both sides, and everyone only cares about offense.

第二节比赛还剩6分42秒的时候，场上的比分变成了42:41。雷霆在第二节的5分钟里，重新将比分扳了回来。当然了，他们也仅仅只领先了1分。

Westbrook, An Luo and Grant played, and the main players such as James on the Cavaliers also appeared.

As soon as he came up, Westbrook made an empty catch for Grant from beyond the three-point line.But James turned around, and under the cover of George Hill, he directly accelerated and changed his direction to pass Westbrook, who had switched defenses, and then made a layup with a low hand.

Playing hard at the basket, but outside the three-point line, An Luo became a thriving player.He first passed the continuous screen of his teammates, received the ball from Westbrook in the right corner, and scored a goal before the Cavaliers came over.Then he passed JR Smith one meter away from the three-point line and made a three-pointer.

Under the impenetrable defense of the Thunder, the Cavaliers lost their fiery touch at the beginning.They tried several times but were unable to score.In desperation, he could only fight inside.

Fortunately, their finishing efficiency at the basket was not bad, and they didn't let the Thunder stretch the score out of control.

However, at the end of the first half, the Cavaliers still trailed by 55 points 62:7.

During the intermission, both sides made very targeted arrangements.The Cavaliers must strengthen their rebound protection.In the first half, Adams dominated the basket alone, and with Westbrook, the Cavaliers have already lost 11 rebounds.The second is that they must target the Thunder's perimeter.An important reason for being caught off guard by the Thunder in the second half of the second quarter was the explosion of An Luo and others on the outside.

The Thunder is just the opposite.There is no problem with their outside defense, but there are really not many ways to face James' impact inside.Moreover, the Cavaliers' outside shooting ability is not bad, and the Thunder don't dare to shrink the defense line to the inside.This problem has existed for a while, and the solution to the problem is Robertson!

Of course, this game is hopeless.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, and the Cavaliers attacked first.

George Hill advanced with the ball and dribbled all the way to the right corner. There was no way to get rid of Westbrook's entanglement, so he could only pass the ball to JR Smith in the right elbow.The latter was almost brought down by An Luo before he could catch the ball.After staggering and stabilizing the ball, it was no longer possible to end the attack.The ball can only be passed to Osman on the left outside.After the latter received the ball, he swung past Paul George in a change of direction, and then rushed in.Before Adams came over to help defend, he stopped and made a jump shot.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!

Even Paul George couldn't help shaking his head.

Careless!He never thought that Osman would play so resolutely.

Westbrook then responded immediately.However, this time he didn't rush to the basket to score.After a body changed direction and swayed away from George Hill, he pulled it up and shot.The action still looked stiff as always, but the ball fell steadily into the net bag.

The two sides came and went, and there was a stalemate for a few minutes.

With 5 minutes left before the end of the third quarter, James suddenly switched modes.He took the ball in and out and scored 14 points in a row. If it weren't for An Luo and Paul George's three three-pointers, this situation would really be unstable.

After three quarters, the two sides tied at 85.Once again back to a starting line.

During the break, Donovan kept frowning.The Cavaliers they met before sounded like a lot of star players, but their fighting power was really not strong.Just a few weeks ago, the Cavaliers seemed to have lost themselves.The entire team was lifeless, played without defense, and couldn't find its own rhythm in offense, like a pool of stagnant water.

But the strength shown by the Cavaliers tonight is simply too strong.After a big change a few days ago, the Cavaliers seem to have been reborn, re-displaying the mighty momentum of the western team.

Before this, the Thunder had never lost to those so-called powerful players.But tonight's game was very difficult.You know, the players of the Thunder did not perform badly.Westbrook, An Luo, Paul George and Adams all scored 20 points, but they only drew a tie.

This game is really hard to play!
