The thunder vs. the Rockets is the second game of the Western Conference semifinals. The day before, the warriors lost their home advantage at Oracle stadium.

It's no surprise that the Nuggets have won some games. But winning the first game is something most people didn't expect. In the game, the Nuggets are in fantastic shape! As soon as they came up, they broke out with great fighting power. Basketball in the conduction of Jokic, accurate to find out of the vantage point of the Nuggets in the hands of players. And then it becomes a score. For this type of center player, many teams are difficult to deal with. This has to sigh about Malone's coaching ability! His team from No.1 to No.4 are all players who can run and shoot suddenly. They play around the ball control center, Jokic.

The warrior waiting for work with ease sounded an alarm for the thunder. A lot of things have two sides. The longer you rest, the more you will be able to reserve your physical strength and prepare for the match. This is very important for the game. But if you keep playing, the players will be in better shape. That's what happened to the Nuggets. They didn't make it until Game 6. After a three-day rest, the game against the warriors began.

The warriors didn't win the game. They've been trying to get the score close. Curry and Thompson are in poor form. They put together 17 3-pointer shots, but only hit 3 of them! Durant played well, playing 39 minutes, contributing 35 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. But it's hard to stand on one's own. Only a few players can decide the outcome of the game by themselves. There is no doubt about Durant's ability, but obviously, he is not at the top level.

The result of this game, let Donovan alert. Compared with the Nuggets, their opponents are always playing and should be in better shape. On the contrary, thunder has not played for nearly ten days. This means that there is a great possibility that they will repeat the mistakes of warriors.

As a result, Donovan took his players to the Chesapeake energy arena half a day ahead of schedule for pre match training. In fact, thunder has been doing the same thing for two days. Donovan is trying to train the players so that they don't lose their form for a long time after the game starts.

For a moment, the whole thunder was a little nervous. Of course, it's not a bad thing. There's a little bit of urgency before the big game, which makes the players more cautious.

On April 28, at 8:00 p.m., the match between thunder and rockets began. During the warm-up before the game, the players from both sides exchanged greetings very friendly. Although it is an opponent, there is no grudge between the two teams. The relationship between the players is good, especially the relationship between harden and Oklahoma City Thunder, which did not turn against the original management problems. Harden and Westbrook, the leading stars of the two teams, have a very harmonious relationship. When it comes to the off-season, the two will meet for training together. In fact, in this league, most players have a good relationship. Even if they fight to death on the court, it will not affect their personal relations.

"Di..."

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

The starting lineups of both sides were the same as in the first round. Chris Paul, harden, Gordon, Tucker and Capella are on the rocket side, while wesbrook, ANLO, Paul George, grant and Adams are on the thunder side.

Capella is even better in the jump ball. He slapped the basketball to Chris Paul, now in the backcourt. The latter catch the ball, while the thunder back defense is not timely, directly accelerated to the forbidden area. Although grant in the first time to chase the past, but did not be able to prevent the other side to complete this attack. Chris Paul takes off from the basket, his right hand passing Grant's block in the air. Then he changed the ball to his left hand and made a beautiful layup.

Looking at Paul, who was much shorter than himself, ANLO couldn't help shaking his head. This stagnant ability and waist abdominal strength, where is like a 30-year-old veteran. Chris Paul used to be a flying ball player! Although after the big injury gradually transformation, played the floor flow basketball, but does not mean that he only can shoot.

This goal, should be counted on the head of Westbrook. He did not appear in his defensive position for the first time after Paul received the ball, giving the opponent a chance to rush.

In the last few seasons, he will certainly find the court himself. But now Westbrook, there is no impulse. He pushed the ball to the top of the arc and was expressionless in the face of Chris Paul's rambling rubbish. Adams mentioned the top of the arc, gave Westbrook a very high quality pick and roll, and put Chris Paul firmly behind him. Sudden to the interior line of Westbrook, facing the change of defense over Capella, a change of direction will be thrown behind it. However, even after passing Capella, his shooting space is not good. After all, Capella is a big player, close behind, it is easy to cover those who dare to attack their own basket players. But Westbrook didn't want to do it himself! He took the ball with him, the defensive attention of the Rockets, rushed into the penalty area, then threw the ball out of the three-point line with his right arm. At this time, anluogang just got the vacancy at the top of the arc under the double cover of grant and Adams.

In the thunder's attack, whether holding the ball or not, they are constantly moving. Opportunities come out under the constant running and mutual cover.After receiving the ball, ANLO did not hesitate. He had seen Tucker coming towards him. Bend your legs, take off, take off. ANLO's shooting is not the most standard, but it looks very eye-catching. Decisive, quick and clean.

Back in time, Chris Paul helped Capella with a smash dunk, and Westbrook did the same with grant to make a more powerful dunk. Then, Paul got rid of the defense by the cover, took a shot out of the three-point line, assisted Tucker and scored another goal; Westbrook made a hand-in-hand pass with ANLO at the top of the arc, blocking the space for the latter with his body

Wesbrook and Chris Paul, two of the league's rare dual defenders who focus on organizing and passing, have been targeting bise since the beginning. The contest between the control and the guard is silent. Traditional point guards, in particular, are always trying to find the best teammates on the field. But the play of these two people, from a large extent, can affect the trend of the whole series.
