Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 1213 [The playoff scoring record is born]
The Lakers' attack only took 3 seconds, leaving the Thunder with 4 seconds to attack. Wei Shao quickly rushed to the frontcourt with the ball to shoot a three-pointer. His hurried shot was not in rhythm and the iron bounced out.
The Lakers led 50-27 in the first quarter. Guo Xu scored a terrifying 40 points, 1 assist and 1 steal. The Lakers only missed two shots in this quarter, both of which were Guo Xu's three-pointers.
Wei Shao was never defended in the mid-range and long range. He scored 15 points in a single quarter, making 6 of 13 shots and 3 of 8 three-pointers. He shot 46.2% from the field and 37.5% from three-point range.
If Wei Shao maintains this shooting rate throughout the series, Wei Mi, who does not watch the live broadcast of the game and only looks at the data, can boast that even though he lost, he will be proud of it. Both of his statistics are above the regular season average. His inability to win must be because his teammates are not strong enough.
As for the Thunder's inability to guard Guo Xu... it must be because of the incompetence of his teammates.
When the players came off the court, Durant, who scored only two points, showed a Hyogo Kita smile and high-fived Guo Xu in celebration. He's already enjoying himself. Now Thunder fans should know what kind of trash he is partnering with, right?
Why don’t I want to stay loyally? I don’t want to be guarded to death for the rest of my life!
Guo Xu came off the court to rest in the second quarter, and the Lakers sent in the dead five, Felton, Wade, Carter, Tucker, and Harrell.
Tyronn Lue arranged the lineup to intentionally leave weaknesses, and allowed the players to play as fast as they could, throw when they had the chance, and don't be afraid to attack the iron. On the defensive end, they have to protect rebounds, block passing routes, and defend Wei Shao alone.
On the Thunder side, Westbrook continues to play without rest, and the other four players are Alex Ablins, McDermott, Sabonis Jr., and Enes Kanter.
The small-ball lineup cannot prevent the Thunder's offense. Kanter is an inside man who is strong in offense and weak in defense. He relies on his height advantage to score consecutive points in singles against Tucker.
Sabonis inherited the shooting touch of his father, Arvydas Sabonis. If Harrell doesn't follow him out of the penalty area, he can make a mid-range shot after catching the ball. He and Wei Shao played pick-and-rolls and then cut and hit the basket. His height of 211cm also has an absolute advantage.
Tucker and Harrell followed the coach's instructions, and Kawhi focused on less passing routes. They would rather let him rush up and score than let the big man easily hit the basket. The effect was very obvious. Wei Shao played 17 minutes and scored 25 points, only sent 1 assist and grabbed 3 rebounds.
Wei Shao showed off his personal offensive power, scored 4 consecutive breakthrough goals, made two free throws, and led a 16-4 run with the ball.
Felton's defense against Wei Shao was not as effective as Guo Xu's random shots, and something magical happened.
The reason Wei Shao didn't play well in the first quarter was that he couldn't find a familiar rhythm, and Adams and Horford were inside to defend the penalty area. Now that his shooting percentage has improved, the Lakers' defense in the penalty area has become weaker.
In the regular season, Wei Shao's only hot spot for shooting was the basket. He hit 4 goals in 7 shots, with a shooting percentage of 57.6%. He was not accurate in other positions, with only 30.5% of close two-pointers in the low post, 43.5% of mid-range two-pointers, and 34.5% of large two-pointers.
To put it bluntly, this is a different kind of scoring champion. He is finished if the opponent defends the penalty area. Whether it's a layup or the most efficient foul shot, he has to try his best to hit the basket.
Before the game started, Tyronn Lue arranged a defensive strategy to prevent Wei Shao from getting a triple-double. It didn't matter how many shots he took and how many points he scored.
Wei Shao was playing very uncomfortable, and he was already anxious and wanted to scratch his head. This was a withdrawal reaction from his failure to achieve a triple-double in three consecutive games, and he simply couldn't get through the day.
The point difference was chased to only 11 points. Guo Xu, Horford, and Durant played together, and Tucker and Wade in the rotation continued to play. These two people don't suffer against big men and are the Lakers' panacea.
The Lakers immediately suppressed the Thunder's counterattack momentum. Guo Xu scored two three-pointers in a row under the cover of his teammates. The counterattack breakthrough caused Kanter to foul and make two free throws. starter
When Coach Donovan saw that it was not working, he quickly replaced Kanter and Sabonis, the best offensive insiders, to rest. Taj Gibson returned to the court, and the other player was Kyle Singler. The Thunder played a small ball strategy.
This summer, the Thunder management plans to trade Kanter, taking advantage of his good regular season statistics and trade value to send him away in an effort to get a star back. In the playoffs, Kanter's inside style of play is not good at helping the team win.
Donovan's idea is to better defend Guo Xu. Durant didn't attack today, and the Lakers can't attack inside. Being disadvantaged in the inside confrontation is not a weakness.
His idea was good, but he still couldn't defend himself when he counterattacked. When Wade is on the court, the Lakers have two fast break starting points. Wade can be responsible for dribbling the ball into the frontcourt and passing the ball to Guo Xu. Horford's first pass was also very accurate. Guo Xu ran out of position and made a long pass, sending two beautiful assists.
Guo Xu scored 21 points in 7 minutes in the second quarter, 61 points in the half, 1 assist, and no rebounds. This score set a player's half-time scoring record. Previously, Lakers legend Elgin Baylor's highest score in a single game in the playoffs was only 61 points.
Wei Shao also scored 36 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in the half, and seemed to be able to set a new personal single-game scoring record. However, the commentators basically list high-end statistics when discussing the game, which is to say that Hei Wei Shao is going to death.
Someone mentioned that the Thunder rarely win when Wei Shao scores high points. In the first ten high-scoring games of his career, the Thunder won three, one of which included Durant, who scored very efficiently.
In the third quarter, Lakers players continued to create opportunities for Guo Xu. Everyone saw Guo Xu's scoring routine clearly. He did not guard Wei Shao, but avoided Wei Shao and quickly counterattacked.
Wei Shao failed to make a layup when he broke through, and Guo Xu would have a chance when he counterattacked. It was difficult to double-team, and the big man couldn't keep up with his speed. The forwards could only foul to stop him from breaking through.
Guo Xu played the entire third quarter, making 6 of 10 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, and 10 of 10 free throws. He scored 24 points and scored 85 points in the three quarters with 1 assist and 2 steals.
However, the point difference has not widened yet. The Lakers only scored more in the first quarter. In the second two quarters, the whole team let off steam and the Thunder scored very efficiently.
The Lakers lead 112 to 98 by 14 points. In theory, this point difference can still be beaten. Of course, Guo Xu will continue to play.
In the last quarter, Guo Xu continued to let off steam, and Wei Shao scored 60 points. He didn't care how many points Guo Xu scored, he just tried every means to perform.
Zhang Lili said in disbelief: Guo Xu has never entered his own penalty area and has not defended. Even so, the Lakers are still ahead of the Thunder.
Yu Jia said: Wei Shao gave up rebounding in the second half because Guo Xu shot crazy from outside. If he didn't actively pursue defense in positional battles, Guo Xu might have made 30 three-pointers in a single game.
In the last quarter, Guo Xu hit the iron several times, and the Thunder narrowed the point difference to only 7 points. Then the Lakers began to defend well, and Guo Xu also began to get close to Wei Shao.
The Thunder's offense was immediately curbed. With Guo Xu behind him, Wei Shao couldn't speed up and had no advantage in the confrontation. Adams led four small players to protect the penalty area and let Thunder players take mid- and long-range shots.
The adjustment method that Wei Shao chose was to hit hard, relying on his height advantage to hit Guo Xu, and the iron could not stop clanking. The other Lakers players had no idea of double-teaming and insisted on man-to-man tactics to prevent Wei Shao from sending assists.
Guo Xu was still not guarded. Although the Thunder had double-teamed him without the ball, the twin towers of Adams and Horford would cover him. Guo Xu only needed to get rid of one person to break through and hit the basket.
His shot is very difficult, and he throws when there is a little gap. His movements look deformed and look like he is throwing blindly, but he can still score goals, but his hit rate is low.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
At 1 minute and 23 seconds, Guo Xu relied on a screen to escape from the three-point line two meters away. He hit a three-pointer before Thompson came up to defend and scored his 100th point of the game. The terrifying single-game scoring record in the playoffs was born...
