Chapter 713 Lore, Battle Situation
The Thunder's defensive strategy is obvious, mainly defending against Qin Yang.
Kevin Durant faced Qin Yang at the critical moment, giving Qin Yang enough defensive pressure, but the Mavericks also expected this. PJ Tucker made a solid screen, and Qin Yang ran directly to get the ball.
It was Westbrook defending Qin Yang.
After Qin Yang took the ball, he stood still and his teammates quickly dispersed.
Four seconds!
Teammates scattered and moved one after another. Durant and others were pulled away. The shooting percentages of the role players around Qin Yang are not low this season. It may not be a good choice to let others go empty at this time.
Three seconds!
Qin Yang dribbled the ball, Westbrook didn't attack, but put a lot of pressure on Qin Yang with his body. In the last few seconds, the defense scale was too large, and the referee couldn't blow the whistle.
But at this moment, Qin Yang actually dribbled the ball behind his back.
The basketball swayed left and right behind Qin Yang.
At such a critical moment, Qin Yang's actions were too aggressive.
Westbrook didn't leave even an inch, tightly blocking Qin Yang.
Two seconds!
The basketball bounced out from the left side of Qin Yang, Qin Yang broke through to the left, and Westbrook followed up, but soon, Qin Yang pulled the ball back and broke through to the right again.Westbrook was prepared and followed up again.
But at this moment, Qin Yang took the ball and jumped.
One second!
It was too late for Westbrook, the center of gravity changed twice in a row, and he couldn't even jump.
Qin Yang stopped suddenly, and suddenly shot from outside the three-point line.
time up!
Qin Yang landed on the ground, his hands still in the shooting position.
Whoosh!
The basketball hits the net.The lore was successful.
The Mavericks players rushed into the court immediately and celebrated. Qin Yang and his teammates clapped hands and were also very happy.Coach Carlisle and others on the sidelines applauded.
This lore is really exciting.
Qin Yang controlled the time every second, and hit a three-pointer at the last moment, killing all hope.
Before this lore, many people were discussing Qin Yang's previous defense, but after this lore, all doubts disappeared.
The media rushed over and surrounded Qin Yang.
Qin Yang is not arrogant, he was very steady when he was interviewed:
"Our opponent is very strong, the whole game put a lot of pressure on us, that's why we fought until the last second, Kevin and Russell performed very well, he caused us a lot of trouble."
"Referee, no, there's nothing wrong with the referee. The number of fouls committed by our two teams is about the same."
Of course Qin Yang knew there was something wrong with the referee, but it would be foolish to criticize the referee at this time, because in terms of the fouls committed by the two teams, the Mavericks committed 24 fouls and the Thunder scored 19 fouls. The difference is not that big.Coupled with the fact that the Thunder often attack the inside, the Mavericks fouled a little more, which is completely understandable.
At least it looks like this from the data, it’s nothing to say.
However... in fact, the players know very well in their hearts, and many people who understand football can also see it.
At the post-match press conference, someone questioned Qin Yang's last defense, and Qin Yang's answer was also very mischievous:
"I don't think there is a problem with that defense. I know that if I defend Westbrook, we will have a better chance of winning, but I am afraid of fouling. If I foul at the last minute and I am sent off, it will be more difficult for us to win this game, so I would rather choose to let Russell break through."
"Anyway, at the end I have a chance to attack again, and that's the most important thing."
In the last few seconds, fear of fouling.
This is simply a blatant slap in the face.
But some fans released the highlights of Qin Yang's defense against Westbrook, only to find something wrong, because Qin Yang fouled three times in four matchups.
These three fouls were all very controversial, and they were all fouls at the body hair level.
If Qin Yang is a role player, if this is the regular season, this kind of whistleblowing is not very controversial, but in this game, the scale of confrontation between the two sides is very large, and it will be controversial if Qin Yang is whistled three times like this.
Even TNT experts took out the highlights of the two people's confrontation:
"In the past game, although Bruce Qin made a successful shot and the Thunder fell behind 0-2 at home, what shocked us was the referee of this game."
"Bruce Qin defended against Russell Westbrook four times, and made four fouls at the level of body hair. People can't help but wonder how the referee made the penalty. In the history of the NBA playoffs, there are very few problems with this continuous penalty scale. I think the league should pay attention to it."
If the Thunder win, this collection won't help.
A winner always has a point.Losers are cast aside.
But the Mavericks won, and there is a problem when such a collection is produced.
It turns out that the Mavericks won so incredible!
After the game, the Mavericks took Cuban's private plane back to Dallas. The next afternoon, the team had a simple recovery training, and Cuban called Qin Yang over.
"Don't worry, Bruce, there will be no problem with the league's penalty in the next game."
Cuban is very shrewd. When the team encounters this kind of unfair treatment, Cuban will use his own methods to fight for it. When the major media reports this matter, there may not be other factors behind it.
This is the United States, a very real problem.
The league official did not make any comments. When Adam Silva was interviewed, he simply responded: "There is nothing wrong with the referee's penalty. In the fierce game, there will inevitably be some small accidents, but the game as a whole is open and fair."
That's how things went.
The Mavericks led the Thunder by a big score of 2-0, which also caused quite a stir.
When the Los Angeles Sports News made this season's playoff prediction, the Mavericks ranked first in the probability of winning.
"Obviously, the Mavericks were underestimated this season. After Bruce returned from injury, he performed very well. What's even more incredible is that the Mavericks' teamwork and tacit understanding are very good. James Ennis and PJ Tucker, two new players who joined the team this season, have become important rotations for the team and played well in the playoffs."
"The overall strength of the Mavericks is still the top in the league. In the West, I am optimistic that the Mavericks will enter the finals. Their teammates are only the Cavaliers and Warriors."
Just two or three games into the second round, it was already obvious.
In the second round of the Western Conference, the Warriors have a great advantage.
After all, the Splash Brothers of the Blazers are fake. When they met the real Splash Brothers, they fell behind in all directions and were beaten. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson shot nearly [-] three-pointers per game, which made the Blazers want to die.
There is almost no suspense for the Warriors to advance.
The game in the East is similar.
In the game between the Cavaliers and the Eagles, the lead was 2-0, and unlike the Mavericks, the Cavaliers won without any suspense, and no one could stop James.
If this trend continues, it doesn't matter who the Eastern Heat or the Raptors enter the Eastern Conference Finals.Because the Cavaliers might win.
There is no suspense in the East, and James led the team to the finals again.
