Chapter 709 Hot game, out of season

After James Ennis hit a three-pointer, the Thunder began to panic.

The Thunder attacked, Kevin Durant wanted the ball, and directly singled Rudy Gay. The Mavericks' strongest outside defense is still Rudy Gay, because the latter has the best physical fitness.

Durant took the ball and made a feint, but Rudy Gay didn't take the fake move.

Immediately afterwards, Durant made another feint, and then directly pulled the ball to the right to break through. Rudy Gay followed closely, blocking Durant's breakthrough route.

With his back on his back, Durant suddenly turned around and shot a jumper.

Mid-range turnaround jumper.

Whoosh!

The basketball hits steadily.

Rudy Gay couldn't keep up with this jumper, a step slower, and with Durant's height and wingspan, the shot was almost undisturbed.

The Thunder scored.

The Mavericks attack.

After Qin Yang dribbled the ball for halftime, he changed tactics.Rudy Gay made a screen, Qin Yang pulled the ball and ran out, Kevin Durant came to change defense, James Ennis screened again, Westbrook also came to change defense.

At this time, the Thunder's defense instantly became chaotic.

Qin Yang passed to Rudy Gay who cut the ball.

Rudy Gay made a quick layup.

Ibaka fouled and Rudy Gay missed a goal, but the Mavericks played a wonderful match.2 of 1 free throws.

The Thunder attack.

Westbrook finally passed the ball this time. Ibaka got the ball in the low post and was defended very tightly by Nurkic. Nurkic's confrontation is much stronger than Jokic, and he is very good at defending Ibaka.

Ibaka gave it a push, and forced a mid-range shot to be interfered.

The basketball bounced out of the basket, Adams got stuck inside, and made a direct tip-up.

But at this moment, after Gobert took a few steps back, he angrily pushed Adams up, and the two pushed and shoved, almost fighting.

From the very beginning of the game, it was extremely hot.

Qin Yang didn't see the situation just now, because he was watched by Kevin Durant, but Gobert's situation was obviously overshadowed, otherwise he wouldn't be so angry.

Qin Yang also went up to help his teammates and accused Adams.

The referee quickly separated the two teams, and one person gave a common foul.

The game continues.

Qin Yang ran to the referee and complained: "Sir, Adams attacked someone inside. It was a malicious foul. My teammates were treated unfairly."

The referee glanced at Qin Yang, nodded, and signaled Qin Yang to go back.

Qin Yang didn't make trouble either.

It is superstars like Qin Yang and James who dare to put pressure on the referee on the court. If they are replaced by others, they may be directly expelled from the field.

That's the power of a superstar.

Qin Yang took the ball, and Nurkic screened again. After the screen, Qin Yang attacked the inside line viciously, but when he was close to the inside line, he threw the ball high up, and Gobert jumped forward and dunked.

Fantastic pass-and-cut coordination.

Qin Yang deliberately fed the ball to Gobert. After Gobert dunked, he waved his arms and made Adams take a look.

The Thunder attack.

Kevin Durant took the ball, broke through to the middle distance and lobbed it to Adams. Adams directly attacked the basket and swung his elbow away.

Although the ball went in with a bump, the whistle sounded.

The goal was invalid and Adams made an offensive foul.

The Thunder refused to accept it, but the three referees watched the replay and confirmed the penalty. Before the attack, Adams used an elbow vaguely, and after pushing Gobert away, he swung his elbow again for a close-range shot.

Undoubtedly a foul.

Inside offense, you can rely on your body and strength, but you can't rely on your elbows. This is a foul without any suspense.

The ball was given to the Mavericks.

Qin Yang attacked this time Qin Yang passed to Rudy Gay, Rudy Gay broke through to the middle distance and passed to James Ennis, Ennis passed to Nurkic without hesitation.

Nurkic made an easy mid-range shot.

Beside, Qin Yang attracted the defense of two people.

Before you know it, Nurkic is vacant.

The cooperation of the Mavericks is on display.

This is the reason why the Mavericks started with James Ennis. James Ennis handles the ball very well among outside 3D players. It doesn’t necessarily mean that he has more assists or how sharp his breakthrough is, but his defense is better. He can move the ball and play very steadily.

This kind of player is easy to play and cooperate.

The game continues.

The Thunder's trailing score rapidly expanded. Qin Yang made two three-pointers and made 2 of 1 from the outside.

At 9 minutes into the first quarter, Qin Yang was replaced, as was Nurkic.

Nowitzki and Livingston played, the Mavericks' offense is still very strong.

Nowitzki is getting older, and his frame protection and defense are not as good as Nurkic, but his shooting ability is still top-notch. He ran to catch the ball as soon as he came up, and hit a mid-range hit against Robertson's defense.

Livingston played Westbrook with a back-up single, and made 3 of 2 jumpers when he turned over. Westbrook was a little confused when he hit directly.

At the end of the first quarter, the Mavericks led by 11 points.

When the first quarter ended, Durant was very depressed, feeling that the team was about to lose again.

In this game, Westbrook showed everyone the spirit of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles who is not afraid of death.Anyway, there is a tortoise shell, so it doesn't matter how you rush.

Westbrook rushed to the basket without fear of death again and again, and the spirit of forcibly scoring inspired everyone.

The Thunder's home court was full of cheers.

However... Westbrook made 20 of 5 shots in the game, and his shooting percentage was touching. At the same time, there were three fouls and five turnovers. Qin Yang almost sent him a pennant: Dallas Good Youth, Best Sixth Man.

First game, easy win.

This round of the series is not a big surprise.

The Mavericks are holding on.

Nowitzki was very low-key in the post-match interview: "Every game in the playoffs is difficult to play. Any mistakes or carelessness may ruin the team's victory, so we will not take it lightly. In the next game, we will still play every offense and defense well."

Kevin Durant panicked when he heard this.

Durant did not call Qin Yang after the game.

Westbrook also kept a low profile a lot, no longer talking about leading the team to victory, nor saying that he will definitely win this round of the series, because from the perspective of the game, the gap between the two teams is a bit big.

It's not a good thing if the game gap is too large, because it will affect the enjoyment of the game.

In the history of the NBA, there has never been such a playoff game, and there are so many tiebreakers this year, which also caused the ratings this year to be much higher than previous years, and the income was much higher than previous years.

In the first round, there were two tiebreakers and two strong sixes.

In the second round, it seems that there will be a tiebreaker again. The Mavericks' game is very out of date!
