Chapter 196 Another Big Victory
On the field, Su Yang dribbled with the ball and made a long pass from the center line to the right.
Gordon received the ball from the sideline, rushed to the right wing in two steps, feinted with one hand, and forced Sefolosha.
The movement was a little fierce, but Sefolosha really didn't block it, and Krstic and Green hurriedly surrounded and intercepted.
Seeing this situation, Su Yang stopped at the three-point line on the left, bowed and raised his hand to wait for the ball to be scored.
I once thought that Gordon didn't care about anything, and defended against the three of the Thunder back and forth, forcing a jump to put the basket.
boom!The basketball hits the board and falls.
Krstic caught the rebound, turned around and threw it to the left sideline, Westbrook caught the ball and ran wildly.
Su Yang originally wanted to rush in to grab the board, but seeing that he couldn't succeed, he quickly twisted his hips and turned around.
But Westbrook catapults off like a bow with a full string, and the starting speed is too fast to catch up.
In the blink of an eye, Su Yang raised his foot and moved sideways, not to intercept and steal, but to force a position, thereby slowing down Westbrook's sprint speed, and creating opportunities for his teammates to set up a formation, although it may not be useful.
The two met face to face in an instant, Su Yang was directly scratched and fell to the ground, and Westbrook continued to sprint forward.
The referee did not blow his whistle, and the arena was booed everywhere.
Su Yang crawled two steps forward with both hands and feet, stood up on the ground, and tried to continue to catch up.
At this time, Westbrook has rushed to the right waist of the frontcourt, facing Barnes and forced a layup.
Barnes didn't stand firmly on his feet, so he could only choose to dodge, but Jordan, who followed closely, kicked off the ground like a roc spreading its wings, raised his hand and patted the basketball flying out of Westbrook's hands, and finished with a bang. Pegboard hat.
Westbrook fell to the sidelines, the referee blew his whistle to punish the ball, and the audience booed again.
In the ESPN commentary seat, Brin said: "Su Yang restricted Westbrook to the extreme. In fact, he didn't have to stand up just now. After all, it was his teammates who made an impulsive layup and was hit by a fast break counterattack, but he still chose to delay. , and if it wasn't for his efforts just now, there would be no interference from Barnes and DeAndre's block."
Jackson said: "It shouldn't be a scrimmage this time. It was a very clear block."
While the two were talking, the scrum was set up.
The referee held the ball and stood in the middle of the free throw line. Westbrook and Jordan lined up on both sides, bending their knees at the same time.
Seeing the referee toss the ball lightly, Jordan immediately jumped off the ground and easily touched the ball first.
The basketball was forced to fly upside down, Su Yang trot picked it up in his hand, and slowly pushed forward.
Randolph mentioned that he received the ball from the left wing, then turned around and passed to the left corner. Gordon caught the ball and directly pressed his shoulder.
Sefolosha still couldn't complete the block, but the Thunder team shrank and closed, with a fast speed and a wide range.
Gordon had nowhere to go, he kicked off the ground hastily, and made a long pass towards the right sideline.
The basketball flew so fast and high that Barnes didn't even have time to take off to catch it, and flew out of bounds.
The referee whistled for a violation and the ball was transferred to the Thunder.
Seeing this situation, Su Yang followed Westbrook to the bottom line, thinking that Thunder would resolutely implement the strategy of blocking the middle lane.
Offensive and defensive transition, Westbrook catches the ball and advances.
Seeing that Krstic intends to enter the field as a cover, Su Yang decisively starts and retreats, running to the center line ahead of schedule.
Westbrook arrived with the ball in a blink of an eye, raised his hand and called for tactics.
Durant immediately started running from the left baseline, covered by Green, and rushed straight to the left wing.Barnes chased after him like a shadow, and even took a step ahead, cutting off the passing route abruptly. Westbrook turned his head helplessly and looked for his teammates again.
Seeing this, Green kicked on the ground and turned around suddenly, while raising his hands and shouting.
Westbrook heard the sling pass, Green caught the ball and hit it high, and took two steps to take off and put the basket.
The momentum is quite fierce, but it is quite difficult to defend against Jordan.
Snapped!The basketball falls in the air.
Gordon and Sefolosha made consecutive points at the basket, and Barnes succeeded by taking advantage of the chaos.
The Clippers launched a fast-break counterattack. Su Yang took the ball at the top of the arc and pretended to pass to Randolph on the left waist. In fact, he used the corner of his eye to pay attention to the running position on the left side. The moment Gordon circled out with the help of a screen, he shook his hand. It was a cross pass.
And Gordon took the ball and took off, steadily shot a wide open three-pointer, and hit the circle with a bang and hit the net.
The audience cheered and clapped their hands, Westbrook pushed forward with the ball in the backcourt, and Su Yang stepped forward to intercept it as usual.
The two entangled all the way, dragging and pushing, using various means, and reached the top of the frontcourt in a blink of an eye.
Kostic went up to the wall to make a horizontal screen, and Westbrook took the opportunity to shift to the right.
Su Yang stepped back and chose to bypass the human wall to intercept, but Wei Shao stopped suddenly and pulled back, diverted to the left.
After going back and forth, Su Yang had no time to re-position to intercept, but Westbrook bounced the ball with the ground, only one and a half body distance away from him, he kicked the ground without hesitation and took off, forming a 45-degree angle with the floor Angled and swooped.
There is really no threat of blocking shots, it just forces Westbrook to speed up his shots, and his posture is not so coordinated.
when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.
Su Yang grabbed the rebound, turned around and ran forward, and the three of Thunder moved together with him.
In just over two seconds, the four of them reached the top of the frontcourt one after another, and the three of Thunder spontaneously formed an encircling formation.
Su Yang was completely unafraid, and deliberately walked around the waist, like a sharp arrow piercing Thunder's basket.
This move was beyond the expectation of the Thunder players, Krstic and Green hurried to the basket to intercept.
Su Yang raised his hand and threw the ball to the left sideline. Gordon caught the ball and made a quick two-point shot.
Boom!After hitting the circle and entering the net, the Clippers played a wave of 7-0.
There were waves of cheers in the arena, and Su Yang walked towards Westbrook silently, like a machine executing a program.
Wei Shao was not polite and called for cover in advance, so Su Yang had to back away.
Fortunately, Krstic was not in place in time, and the Thunder tactics did not run.
When Westbrook reached the top of the arc with the ball, a full seven seconds had passed before Durant began to run.
It was still the previous set of baselines that used cover to go around, and Jordan decisively participated in the pincer attack, but this time, after Durant received the ball, he seemed to be prepared, and he took advantage of the situation and hit the ball sideways through the gap between the people, while Kostic Just disassemble the station.
Jordan was unable to return to the defense, and Barnes rushed forward, but unfortunately, due to his limited height, he could not interfere with Krstic.
Fortunately, the basketball hit the basket and fell. Randolph picked it up and threw it to Su Yang. The Clippers launched a counterattack.
The large forces of both sides quickly moved to the frontcourt. Gordon set up a wall at 45 degrees to the left to cover, and Su Yang went straight to the bottom corner.
He was going to break through, but he saw that apart from Westbrook and Sefolosha trying to double-team him, even Krstic was moving in parallel, as if he wanted to block the breakthrough route, completely ignoring the runner who was making an air cut. The next little Jordan.
"They've broken down defensively..."
Thinking of this, Su Yang raised his hand and threw the ball to the basket. Jordan jumped high and dunked in the air.
There were three waves of cheers in the arena, and the Clippers played a 9-0 offensive climax, extending their lead to 17 points.
The entire Thunder team was visibly flustered. Coach Brooks got up and clapped his hands and did not ask for a timeout.
The on-site announcer was keenly aware of this, and immediately took the lead in shouting, and the audience shouted for defense in unison.
Westbrook took the ball from the bottom line, hurriedly raised his left hand and called for a tactical move, walking side by side with Kostic.
With such protection, going up close to interfere is nothing, so Su Yang wisely chose to turn around and run away.
Surprisingly, Westbrook took the ball to the top of the arc, voluntarily gave up the high screen, and went to the right to make a strong breakthrough.
With such a choice, Su Yang completed the interception effortlessly, and Westbrook had to turn around and throw the ball to the top of the arc.
Green catches the ball and raises it high, and fails to deceive Randolph with a fake shot, and turns to the left to start.At the same time, Durant used Sefolosha to cover and rushed from the bottom corner to the 45-degree three-point line. The two met head-to-head and cooperated hand in hand.
Barnes squeezed through the wall to catch up, but Durant dribbled the ball and kicked off the ground to take off.
boom!The basketball hits the board and falls, which is considered non-stick.
Jordan picked up the basketball, Su Yang stepped forward to receive it, and the Clippers launched a fast-break counterattack.
He brought the ball to the top of the arc in [-] seconds. Seeing the Thunder surrounding the paint, he immediately started to rush in.
As he expected, the Thunder team hastily retracted their attack and resolutely implemented the strategy of blocking the middle lane.
Considering that Gordon suffered a loss before, Su Yang jumped up first and made a long pass to the right.This time the pass was accurate and moderate in strength. Barnes easily caught the ball and held it high. Facing Green, he swooped and threw the ball straight to the basket.
Randolph received the ball and was unguarded, Krstic rushed to make up the defense, and the basketball flew into Jordan's hands again.
There was only a bang, the basketball blasted into the net, and the Clippers played an 11-0 offensive climax.
Leading to 19 points, the Thunder requested a timeout, and cheers burst from the Staples Center.
In the ESPN commentary seat, Breen shook his head slightly: "In the middle of the Thunder's first quarter, Durant scored consecutively, but failed to complete the overtake. At the end of the second quarter, Westbrook scored consecutively, but failed to complete the overtake.
At present, they are on the verge of falling behind by 20 points. Will there be a situation where someone will score consecutively? "
Jackson also shook his head: "It's very difficult, very difficult. Their momentum has been severely damaged. The toughest Westbrook also chooses to play conservatively, unless Durant can suddenly explode and hit the top three-pointers like before..."
Between discussions, the timeout ends and the game continues.
The Thunder did not make personnel adjustments, but only increased the number of shots Westbrook made. However, under the defense of Su Yang, they made 5 of 1 shots in total.The Clippers played steadily, hitting 31 to 16 in a single quarter, and established a 23-point lead in one fell swoop.
The fourth quarter turned into garbage time, the main players of the two teams did not appear, and the Clippers had a greater advantage in the substitute matchup.
