super heavy artillery

Chapter 420

The Thunder, who returned to the Chesapeake Energy Arena with a seven-game winning streak, defeated the Heat from afar.

In this game, Paul George and Robertson did not play.After all, the previous two games against the Raptors and Celtics were really exhausting.Donovan was more cautious and decided to let the two brothers rest.But they still won relatively easily.

The Heat have performed well this season.They are currently ranked fifth in the East, and hope to break into the top three.The return of Wade not only improved the depth of their lineup, but also strengthened their momentum a lot.After all, the Heat with the Flash is the master of the king in people's minds.But in this game, Wade did not play too well.He did have fuel in his fuel tank, but it was limited.Staying in the playoffs to lead these young people to a breakthrough can be regarded as good steel being used wisely.

For the Thunder, Westbrook and An Luo both scored 30+, and the former scored a triple-double for the fourth consecutive game.There is no doubt that this season will be another season for Westbrook averaging a triple-double.And most likely, he could get more.An Luo is still quite satisfactory, his scoring average is basically stable at 4 points per game.In this season, there are not many players who average more points per game than him.

Another wave of eight consecutive victories!Although the Thunder have long been determined to enter the playoffs, they have not stopped winning.And judging from the current situation, they are likely to break the best record in Thunder team history.Even counting the Seattle SuperSonics, the predecessor of the Thunder, they only need to win 65 wins.Now it seems that this record is not too difficult.

On March 3, after 25 days, the Thunder met the Blazers again.But this time, they returned to Oklahoma City from Portland.In the most familiar Chesapeake Energy arena, the Thunder vowed to find a way out of the opponent.

But as soon as the game started, Thunder was stunned by the opponent!In the first 4 minutes of the start, they only scored 2 points with Adams' free throw.Up to 10 shots in sports battles, but none of them were able to score.This also includes An Luo's two three-pointers.Under the leadership of McCollum, the Blazers, Harkless and Nurkic have made achievements.They played a very perfect start: 14:2.Almost as soon as they came up, they led the opponent by double digits.

Donovan had no choice but to call a timeout. The players were not in good condition, so they could only rely on the most stable cooperation to stabilize the situation.Therefore, after the timeout ended, the Thunder began to hit the basket.The pick-and-roll cooperation between Westbrook and Adams helped the Thunder score the first sports score of the game.

Next, An Luo continued to try.One minute before he was replaced, he finally found a chance to hit the first three-pointer of the game.He used Adams' screen to displace Nurkic.Use the tentative step + retreat step to open up the space, and then make a decisive shot.However, his three-pointer did not change the passive situation on the court.Lillard put his watch on midway through the first quarter and hit three straight 1-pointers to undo the Thunder's efforts.In the end, the Thunder entered the second quarter with a 12-point disadvantage.

From the beginning of the second quarter, the Thunder began a half-hour-long journey of chasing points.

Throughout the second and third quarters, both sides played very anxiously.The situation on the scene was also relatively stable. The Thunder were chasing back by one point and two points, and the Blazers were also trying their best to maintain their lead.However, after An Luo and Paul George each made a three-pointer in the next minute of the third quarter, the Thunder chased the point difference to only 1 point.Although Lillard hit a three-pointer at the last moment, the Thunder were only 1 points behind.

In the last quarter, the two sides set up their positions for the final decisive battle.

The first to charge was the lagging Thunder.Paul George scored consecutive jump shots to the inside.However, McCollum felt hot and scored 5 points from inside and outside, which basically redeemed Paul George's performance.Afterwards, An Luo and Lillard competed.The two were a bit at odds in this game.The cause was still in the second quarter. At that time, An Luo scored two three-pointers in a row, and then shook his shoulders at Lillard.Ever since Yu Curry made a three-pointer against Curry, An Luo felt that the opponent's shoulder shaking was very handsome.So, he subconsciously trembled twice.This flick is broken!When Lillard saw it, he was provoking me!Ever since, he turned his head and made a super long three-pointer.Although Lillard's shooting percentage is not top-notch, but such a difficult three-pointer is still really accurate!

After the ball was scored, Lillard stretched out his left hand to An Luo.Of course it wasn't fighting, but looking at the watch.

If An Luo has mind reading skills at this moment, he will definitely be able to hear Lillard's inner monologue: "How dare you mock me? When I pick up the watch, you will all die!"

When Lillard showed his watch, the scene suddenly boiled.Of course, not cheers, but waves of boos.

In the next round, Westbrook took the initiative to pass the ball to An Luo.He knew what kind of person An Luo was, and he didn't seem to care about anything, but he had to be strong in his heart.

After receiving the ball in front of the center line, An Luo rushed towards McCollum.Walking in from the right with the ball in his right hand, McCollum moved with him, tightly stuck in his breakthrough route.But after An Luo paused for a while, he accelerated again and walked forward to the right.This time, McCollum moved a lot.This is exactly the opportunity An Luo needs.When the opponent moved, he pulled the ball from his crotch to the left side, then pulled it up and shot it.

This is the second time that An Luo has fought against the opponent in a match.The result was the same as the previous fight with Curry, An Luo laughed at his opponent.Not only did he win the individual duel, An Luo also had the last laugh in the competition.

In this league, An Luo's three-pointers are too stable.No matter what the defensive intensity is, as long as he can make a shot, he can score.

In the final stage, Lillard and McCollum both broke out and once evened the score.But how can Westbrook let Lillard play tricks on his own territory!At the critical moment, he directly switched to the super turtle mode, and within 1 minute, he rushed to the basket and played strong, allowing the Thunder to maintain their advantage until the end of the game.

After the game, An Luo and Lillard hugged.By the way, put two harsh words.

"Boy, good luck! I hope you will have such good luck next time!"

"Then you have to work hard! Otherwise, you can only wait until next season! At that time, I will be even better."
