Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

Chapter 660: Advance to the finals

"Kevin Durant made another three-pointer!"

"This guy is really crazy. He can score a three-point goal so easily, but not once or twice. This is the third time he has hit such an unreasonable goal!"

"What the **** did this guy grow up with?"

Kenny Smith expressed infinite emotion when Kevin Durant made a silent three-pointer.

Now the difference is back to 5 points!

And the game time is more than two minutes, it is clear that this game still has to be played!

Kevin Durant saved the team from the edge of the cliff through his own unreasonable play.

"Don't worry, just hit us! We are still ahead, don't forget this sentence!" Hollins constantly communicated with the Grizzlies players from the sidelines. He hoped everyone could calm down. After all, they are now in the lead.

It was Mike Conley who was in control of the ball and went to the frontcourt, but at this time there were shouts of "defense", and monstrous shouts filled the entire scene, and among these "defense" shouts, people on the court There have also been some changes in the expressions of the Grizzlies players, especially after the players of the entire Thunder team suddenly increased their defenses, they suddenly lost their strategy on the offensive end.

"The Grizzlies' offensive formation has not been in place for a long time. Mike Conley couldn't find Zach Randolph and handed the ball to Oj Mayo. Mayo directly broke through for a layup... missed!"

"Scramble for rebounds!"

"Ibaka protected the rebound!"

"Wow!"

The cheers on the scene merged with the voice of the commentator, which made the Grizzlies, who had just failed the offense, return to defense much slower than usual.

Westbrook seized the opportunity and dribbled into it!

"!"

A loud noise!

Westbrook completes dunks!

"Wow ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

At this time, the whole scene was completely upset.

The point difference returned to 3 points, and there were 2 minutes left in the game.

The whole suspense of the game has returned.

"It's still 3 points. The Grizzlies actually played pretty well during this period. It's just that Kevin Durant's sudden explosion was something they didn't expect. However, I have to say that in the NBA, sometimes With such uncertainty, the Grizzlies must call a timeout, otherwise, their morale may have a big problem!"

In just over a minute, the 10-point difference turned into a 3-point difference. This is a huge blow to a team, even a team that is not susceptible to external interference like the Grizzlies. Of!

In Kenny Smith's view, the Grizzlies must call a timeout!

"Beep!"

And he didn't guess wrong, it was just a few seconds, just as Mike Conley dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Hollins called a timeout.

"Nice!"

When Westbrook and Kevin Durant walked off the court, they ran into a passionate collision. This collision also caused the cheers on the scene to form a sound wave, which was wrapped in sound waves one after another. Everyone on the Grizzlies is like a small wooden boat in the storm, looking like it might be overturned at any time.

Of course, this is also normal. Any team suddenly catches up to 7 points in a row at a critical moment in a key game, and everyone will be a little flustered.

Including the Grizzlies.

"I say again, we are the leader, so we don’t have to worry. Let’s be steady, and we can maintain the leading difference to the end! So, don’t be nervous, hit our own, you know, keep going, In 3 minutes, all the glory will belong to you!"

Hollins did not deploy any offensive tactics, what he has been emphasizing is the mentality.

"I said before the game started. For the Grizzlies, offense has always been their weakness. They usually rely on their super defensive abilities to interfere with their opponents, so that they can't find the feeling on the offensive end!"

"However, one thing I have to say is that it is precisely because the Grizzlies are eye-catching on the defensive end that sometimes their offensive performance is not so satisfactory and irrelevant. After all, they are on the defensive end. They can do a good job, and they have won many games like this. However, there is a saying that the Grizzlies’ offensive strategy is very simple. The second offense will be full of variables. This is obvious, and it is also the real reason why the Thunder's forcing defense at the critical moment has been effective. The offensive end of this team is still too simple!"

Kenny Smith also explained the reason why the Grizzlies did not make a hit in the offense just now. For teams like the Grizzlies, it is impossible for them to have too many psychological changes in the face of a forced defense. , They will only change in that respect when the tactics cannot be used!

Also in that round, this team exposed their weaknesses, they are not a team that can only attack!

"So, don't let Zach Randolph take the ball, you must be optimistic about this guy, as long as this guy can be optimistic, then the Grizzlies offense will not have much improvement!"

Brooks also discovered this situation. After reading the pre-game notes, he immediately decided to continue this defensive method!

"Beep!"

The buzzer sounded, the timeout ended again, and the game restarted. In the last 2 minutes, there was still 3 points left. When the Thunder players and Grizzlies players returned to the court, both sides brought a decisive decision!

The Thunder is still focused on defensive defense on the defensive end. The Grizzlies players are still not very comfortable. They want to pass the ball to Zachrandorf, but they can’t pass the ball to the latter’s hands. Inside.

"The Thunder has pinched the Grizzlies' lifeline on the offensive end, which is extremely unfavorable for the Grizzlies!"

Kenny Smith looked at the Grizzlies players who were unable to get the ball to Randolph on the court, and he actually had a conclusion in his mind about this game.

It's just that Mike Conley, who has not given the ball to the inside after several passes, suddenly pulled up a jumper from the outside. Westbrook, who defended him, has been intercepting him and not letting him pass, so he gave a lot of space. The player was still looking for a player to catch the ball a second ago. At this moment, he suddenly jumped up and shot. It was because Westbrook's reflex nerves were very low and developed, and he was also half a beat slower.

"Huh!"

The ball fell into the basket in a daze.

Mike Conley made a shot.

The point difference returned to 6 points!

yes!

Pretty!

On the Grizzlies bench at the scene, a group of people jumped straight up.

"Defensive defense, the game is not over yet!"

Mike Conley didn't change his expression at all after scoring a goal. He just looked at Westbrook, who was holding the ball in the Thunder, and commanded his teammates to stand quickly!

The game is not over, and he hasn't come to the time to celebrate, he remembered a sentence during the entire timeout, as long as it lasts 3 minutes, they will be able to create miracles!

So, no matter what, let it go!

Westbrook took the ball to the frontcourt, and because of his temperament he wanted to pay it back. After all, Mike Conley just made a three-pointer in front of him. If he didn't return it, it would be a shame. It's just that he hasn't decided how to counterattack before he gets to the frontcourt, so Kevin Durant walks around and asks for the ball directly.

Westbrook hesitated, and finally decided to give the ball to the latter.

As Kevin Durant took the ball, the entire Grizzlies' defensive formation began to change, targeting his range.

But Kevin Durant did not hesitate at all. A drastic change of direction directly threw Afflalo away in front of him, and then rushed into the interior. The basket turned around to avoid the interference of Xiaojia, and the basket was half-cut. The ball is in!

"Huh!"

The point difference returned to 4 points.

And Kevin Durant only took less than 3 seconds to score a goal this time, and the game time was still 1 minute and 40 seconds.

"This game is really good!" Barkley became excited.

"The whole audience is pressing!"

Brooks also really went sideways, and directly asked for the ball to press the ball. Mike Conley even suffered a double-team, and he was even more clumsy. He couldn't catch the ball. He went around for a lap. In the end, it was Oj Mayo who got the ball. When Oj Mayo took the ball forward, it was directly destroyed by Westbrook.

"Ball!"

When Westbrook got the ball, Kevin Durant called out again, and the Turtle did not hesitate to hand the ball to the latter. Kevin Durant went directly to the Grizzlies basket like a Mercedes-Benz ostrich. .

There are 2 points left!

"Continue to double-team!"

Brooks shouted again.

In his shout, the entire team once again forced the Grizzlies out of error, and the Thunder once again counterattacked the ball!

Tied...

"The Grizzlies can't help it. They can't temporarily adjust their weakness!" Kenny Smith watched the Grizzlies encounter double-teaming mistakes on the offensive end, knowing that the Grizzlies' general situation is gone!

"!"

"Huh!"

And everything did not exceed what he expected. Then the Thunder completely dominated the offensive end, and the Grizzlies only shot a few shots and all ended. The Grizzlies offensive end was completely locked!

"Beep!"

With the whistle, the Thunder finally won the game!

"There is not much to complain about, we have been playing very smoothly, but we just can't beat those guys."

The helplessness of the "Black Bear" Zach Randolph who completed the redemption of the Grizzlies is also the most objective interpretation of the game. The Grizzlies played hard in this game. Mike Conley, Marc Gasol, The four Grizzlies players of Zach Randolph and Rudy Gay have played to the extreme in the game, but their desperate struggles failed to defeat the youthful Thunder.

In fact, in the second half, Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol’s decisive shots after the opening made the fans feel their desire to win, and Gasol even had it in the third quarter of the game. With 11 points and 5 rebounds in a single quarter, he looked so unstoppable. At that moment, almost all the commentators who watched the game believed that the Grizzlies would complete a shocking counterattack, even the biggest reversal of the season! And in the first half with plenty of energy, they did control the entire court on both offense and defense.

It’s just a pity. In the last four minutes, their shooting percentage dropped from 52% in the first half to 46% in the third quarter. Their scoring efficiency declined in one quarter. It was only because the Thunder’s shooting percentage was lower that the Grizzlies took the lead. After the start of the fourth quarter, their shooting percentage dropped to 40%. In the last 4 points, it even dropped to 33.3%. Except for the first two shots, the next four shots failed to hit the basket!

And when the Grizzlies couldn't make the basket, the Thunder's opportunity came, especially Durant's hand feeling at the time can no longer be described as fiery!

This is also the reason, even though the Grizzlies entered the final 4 minutes and 30 seconds of the final quarter with a 10-point advantage!

But their own poor scoring efficiency could not stop the Thunder at that time.

The only thing worth mentioning is that Zach Randolph got 25+14+2 data in this game. This is the first time he has sent "25+14+2" data in the playoffs. It's just very Unfortunately, his performance in this game did not bring victory to this team.

And he had a chance to seal the victory, but at the last moment he missed a key CIC. It is estimated that it will become his biggest regret, because this is likely to be when he is closest to the finals floor!

The Thunder defeated the Grizzlies at home, won Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals and advanced to the Finals. After the game, when talking about the upcoming finals, several big-name broadcast guests on tnt TV agreed that the Thunder will bring huge trouble to the New York Knicks!

"I think the Thunder will win!" Steve Kerr said. "This is a very talented team. They have improved beyond imagination. I think they are ready to win the championship."

"The original ones may not be as strong as they are now, but they are definitely stronger than the original ones. They should thank the Grizzlies because it was the Grizzlies that inspired their real combat power~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ These guys have made further progress in terms of experience and mentality. These will be important magic weapons for them when facing the New York Knicks!"

Barkley and O'Neal, who originally thought that the Grizzlies will reach the finals, also had to express their admiration for the Thunder. They thought this young team allowed them to see infinite possibilities. This team is really awesome!

"They have crossed this threshold, and they have become very difficult to beat." Barkley said. Reggie Miller's statement is even more exaggerated, "Their team atmosphere is very good, I hope the entire Americans will like this team."

Of course, it was Durant who left the deepest impression on the celebrities. Before this round of duel, several broadcast guests were almost unanimously optimistic about the Grizzlies, but they did not think that they had made a mistake. Cole’s statement represented everyone’s point of view. A player like Rand who is only 23 years old can do such a great thing. His performance in the entire series, especially in the final 4:30 of today, is too bad."

"Finals, here we are!"

In the center of the venue, Kevin Durant, who held up the Western Conference Finals trophy, said silently in his heart!
