The Godfather of Basketball

Come back from the timeout and continue the Lakers offensive round.

After Nash dribbled to the frontcourt, he greeted Kobe's outside pick-and-roll, and then split the ball to Kobe.

Although the trick was changed, D'Antoni's thinking was still the same, and he handed the ball to Kobe in a different way.

After receiving the ball, Kobe saw that the Thunder were about to double-team, so he accelerated ahead of Westbrook. The two confronted and came to the free throw line.

"boom!"

The ball flew past Westbrook's fingertips, hit the backboard and bounced into the net.

A fairy ball.

The Lakers finally broke the scoring drought after the opening.

Kobe continued his excellent form in the last game. As long as he is given a chance, he can still score such difficult goals.

"It's okay! Keep our own rhythm!" Tang Tian walked to the sidelines, clapped his hands and encouraged the players on the field.

Different from the previous game, the Thunder has firmly grasped the initiative on the court after adjusting both offensive and defensive ends. Even if Kobe scored 43 points like in the last game, it would be difficult for the Lakers to take the game away , not to mention that Kobe is strangled to death now, and it is simply unrealistic to score another 43 points.

The Thunder continued to pick and roll without the ball. Westbrook faced Nash in a misplaced position and made a direct one-on-one breakthrough. Nash faced the rushing Turtle and had no power to parry at all. He could only choose to foul early.

The sideline ball was sent out, and when Durant misplaced Nash again, Kidd passed the ball with his hands.

The Lakers didn't dare to help defend this time. Durant's turn and fallback was completely undisturbed, and he steadily sent the ball into the basket.

D'Antoni was very tangled standing on the sidelines at this time.

On paper, the strength of the Lakers is no worse than that of the Thunder, but against the Thunder, he really didn't dare to use his style of bombardment, it was completely courting death.

That's why the Lakers are all trying to beat the tempo in the series. It worked because of Kobe's outstanding performance in the last game. Now after the Thunder adjusted, Kobe was choked to death, Nash was targeted, and the points were pulled away little by little. , This is completely slow death!

More than 6 minutes into the first quarter, the score on the field was 16 to 6. Although Kobe could hit a difficult goal every once in a while, the Thunder always firmly occupied the initiative on the field.

D'Antoni paced back and forth, and finally couldn't help it anymore. Taking advantage of the dead ball, he replaced Howard with Blake, resorting to his best bombardment tactics.

The tactics of double control, Nash advances to the frontcourt, before the Thunder team is completely settled, he directly breaks through the basket, and then passes the ball to Blake, Kobe uses Artest to pick and roll, and throws the ball regardless .

"Shua!"

Just throw it away.

In the Thunder's offense, Durant was almost lucky when he hit Nash with his back. The ball went in and bounced out.

Gasol grabbed the defensive rebound, the Lakers directly accelerated the counterattack, and Nash's emergency stop jumper in the frontcourt also made it.

After this substitution, the Lakers beat the Thunder 4-0.

D'Antoni nodded repeatedly on the sidelines at this time. This is his offensive tactic. He simplifies his tactics and competes with you for speed and rhythm.

Stevens asked Tang Tian if he wanted to pause, Tang Tian shook his head and called Harden directly.

Durant's back caused Nash's second personal foul, and Harden came on to replace Kidd.

At this time, the three masters were present at the same time.

The sideline ball was sent out, Harden misplaced and hit Nash, a change of direction accelerated the European step and went in, forcing Gasol to come over to help defend, he hit the ground and smashed the ball to the basket Ibaka, who took the ball and was A dunk.

The scene cheered loudly, and Harden also smiled and pointed at Ibaka while retreating.

This is Harden's biggest role in this Thunder team. He has both killing and passing ability, which is something neither Westbrook nor Kidd has.

Harden scored, and the Lakers couldn't fight back, so they could only push to the frontcourt to play positions.

However, compared with the previous few rounds, the Lakers' positional tactics are simpler, and Kobe will shoot when he blocks one.

"Shua!"

There is still a vote, Kobe Mamba is still strong.

The Thunder attacked the frontcourt, and Harden organized the frontcourt again. This time, the Lakers did not assist in the defense. Harden rushed to the free throw line and scored with a small throw.

20 to 10, the game lasted more than 8 minutes, and the Thunder still led by 10 points.

The Lakers continued to play fast, Kobe blocked the defense, and Blake got a three-pointer, but was interfered by Durant, who was helping to defend, and the ball went out of the basket.

Westbrook's fast break caused Nash's third personal defensive foul.

D'Antoni was forced to replace Nash with Jody Meeks.

Westbrook made two free throws, and the Thunder's lead came to 12 points.

At this time Tang Tian sat back on the bench from the sidelines.

The Thunder team won't suffer at all in such a back-and-forth fight. Not to mention anything else, just say that the current stable scoring points on the field, the Thunder team has too much advantage.

Kobe hit the basket with the ball and hit the free throw line with one hit and three hits. He made two free throws.

But looking back, Harden faced the old Blake and scored another European layup.

Gasol's catch and layup was missed by Ibaka, and Durant met Meeks' chasing three-pointer in the fast break.

After the first quarter, the score on the field was 42 to 22, and the Thunder had opened up the point difference to 20 points in a single quarter!

D'Antoni didn't want to die slowly, so he removed Howard and the Thunder to play fast break, but without Howard, the Lakers' defense was in vain.

30 in the first half and 40 in the third quarter. The Thunder's players were infinitely focused throughout the entire process. It really didn't give the Lakers a chance to counterattack.

After three quarters, the game entered garbage time.

118 to 83, the Thunder beat the Lakers by 35 points in their second home game, tying the series at 1-1.

The four players only played three quarters. Durant had 22 points and 4 rebounds, Westbrook had 16 points and 4 rebounds, Harden had 18 points and 7 assists, and Ibaka had 12 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks.

On the Lakers side, Kobe Bryant continued his excellent form, scoring 19 points on 7 of 13 shots, but was unable to help the team close the point difference.

A big victory reflects not only 1 point on the big score, but outright suppression, the system, the stars, and the deepest point for those who have watched the game is: Even if the Lakers are given another chance, they will not be defeated. No chance.

It was also at this time that those people realized that the black eights were just nonsense.

The Lakers won the first game, more like Iverson scored 48 points in the Finals in 2001 to win the game.

When the Thunder are really serious and trying their best, the Lakers have no chance to resist at any level, just like D'Antoni tried in the game, the only thing they can do is to choose a way to die.
