On June 1, 2019, on this children's day, the NBA's final showdown began at the Chesapeake energy arena.

Before the match, the fans who were watching the finals had a very heated debate. Compared with last year, the biggest difference in this year's finals is the strength difference between the two sides.

Last year, although James played the most powerful season, with the Cavaliers all the way to the finals, but no one will think that they can give the thunder how much trouble. The same is true of the fact that the thunder almost bloodlessly brought the championship back to Oklahoma.

However, this year's Raptors are very strong. They even won the championship level of 76 men and bucks, and the bigger the better, momentum. On the contrary, thunder's combat effectiveness has declined. Although the basic combat strength is quite intact, the thunder defense is no longer as dominant as it was last year due to the loss of Robertson. Can limit the attack of raptors, is the key issue of thunder defending the championship.

Before the finals, Donovan was worried. He was surprised by the Raptors' performance in the Eastern Conference finals. After all, they were not particularly good in the Eastern Conference semi-finals. And the bucks are much better than the 76ers. Thunder played with the bucks and 76ers twice in the regular season. They could feel that although the comprehensive ability of the Raptors has increased a lot after strengthening, the Bucks led by adeto Kunbo should be more powerful and explosive.

Raptors can beat the Bucks, which shows the importance of defense in the playoffs. This is the main reason why many Raptors fans like raptors. However, in the first finals of both sides, the performance of raptors was very ordinary. Especially the defensive side, can not suppress thunder strong attack.

Although it is the first time to play the finals, the Raptors did not adapt to the performance. After all, Leonard, green, and ibacaco are all people who have played in the finals, especially the first two, who have won the championship in the Spurs. Other players, such as Lori and Pau Gasol, are not absent from the playoffs all year round. They are no stranger to such scenes.

There are many factors that affect the outcome of the game. It is more difficult to fight away from home. We must be strong enough.

Nash understood that. So in the first quarter, he put forward a positive offensive formation. Unfortunately, he wanted to play something, but by the home team thunder very tough defense.

This can be seen from the performance of Leonard, the core of the team. In the first quarter, Leonard didn't make a particularly eye-catching performance. Although he has always been a very simple player, but his scoring ability is the league's top level. Paul George's defense made Leonard not play hard.

Another key player, Lori, was not very good on the offensive side. In this case, Pau Gasol and seacam became the Raptors' two arrow characters.

ANLO scored the first goal of the game. He didn't get a chance outside the three-point line. But through his own run without the ball, under the cover of his teammates, he got rid of Denny green and cut the ball into the basket.

Then Leonard threw the Raptors' first goal in the finals against Paul George in the right elbow. Unfortunately, the ball was thrown out of the basket under the interference of Paul George. In return, Paul George responded in the same way. Perhaps because he didn't feel good about his hand, Leonard reduced his shot and began to break into the basket to create injuries.

Seacam became the Raptors' first goal in the finals. He caught the ball with Grant on his left side against the baseline, turned over and hit the bull's eye. After that, Anluo won the basketball again. Raptors seem to be particularly concerned about ANLO's three-point goal, and Denny Green has been clinging to him, opening his hands and interfering. Even ANLO can score on the inside, but Denny green just won't give him a chance to shoot a three-point shot.

Of course, that doesn't limit ANLO's score. His mobility has been greatly developed with the addition of thunder. Although the external line out of the mobile phone will not be much, but in the internal line opportunity or grasp.

Besides anlow, Westbrook was the second point. Paul George was able to limit Leonard, but he was also limited by the other side. As a result, thunder all attacks are concentrated on the inside line, the outside line basically has nothing to do.

In fact, the situation of raptors is similar. Lori, Denny green and Leonard all felt bad. As a result, the area within the free throw line became the most intense place for both sides to fight. Gasol and kasolm's attack.

In the first quarter, the two sides were 23:28. Thunder opened the gap to 5 points with Anluo's last-minute pressure whistle three-point ball.

Compared with the previous competition, the scores of both sides are not high. However, this is not caused by the defense of both sides. No matter thunder or raptors, defense is not particularly good.

Away combat, not only to have a stable and efficient attack, but also to have a strong defense. Only in this way can we fight out the momentum and have the opportunity to retreat. Raptors, obviously not.In the second section, some changes have taken place in the situation of both sides. Raptors strengthened their attack, especially the three-point goal. After Pau Gasol pulled to the outside line, he made two three-point shots in a row. With his height advantage, no one can limit thunder. Whether Adams or Noel, defensive attention is still on the basket. No one expected that Pau Gasol would suddenly go out of the three-point line.

In fact, after nearly two years of transformation, many traditional types of interior players have begun to transform. They have developed their own long-range shot ability, no longer always stick to the basket. In this inside type player, the Bucks' Lopez is the most typical. His three-point ability is superior to most outside players in the league. What's more, his defensive ability under the basket has not regressed! Now it seems that Pau Gasol has completed this transformation.

However, thunder responded quickly. ANLO, who has been running without the ball, has been trying to find opportunities, and the rest of the Oklahoma City players are creating opportunities for him. Although the Raptors have not relaxed their defense, but in this case, the thunder or slowly recovered their offensive state.

When Angelo and Paul George began to hit the three-point goal, the game began to be dominated by the thunder.
