Chapter 808 Christmas Decisive Battle

Westbrook's performance tonight was completely overwhelmed by Curry on the opposite side.

In the opening game, Westbrook also relied on his body and momentum to overwhelm Curry, but soon Curry taught him to be a man with his precise three-pointers.

The times are indeed different. If it were placed more than a decade ago, Westbrook's breakthrough style of play would be very popular in the league.

At that time, even the fans learned from their favorite stars, pulling the rod and changing hands.

Although the person will fall to the ground as soon as the lever is pulled, and the ball will disappear as soon as the hand is changed, I still enjoy it.

The reason is that at that time, the standard for judging an outside superstar mainly depended on his outside breakthrough ability.

Now the standard has changed, the first thing to look at is your three-point shooting ability.

In this regard, Westbrook's shooting is indeed too unstable, and the three-pointer cannot be compared with Curry, Durant, Li Liang and others.

So it's normal to feel depressed.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Westbrook reappeared, and Li Liang went off to rest for a while.

As soon as Westbrook came up, he rushed to the basket with the ball and gave the ball to Kanter. Kanter made a layup and caused a foul by his opponent and went to the free throw line.

Two free throws were made, 81:89, and the Thunder led by 8 points.

Then, Curry made an empty cut to the basket, but under the tight defense of the Thunder, he failed to make a layup after receiving a pass from Varejao.

Durant got the ball and launched a counterattack.

One thing that is very scary about the Thunder is that they have three counterattack engines.

Li Liang, Durant, and Westbrook can all be used as instigators for counterattacks, and each of them needs at least two people to stop them.

But you don't have that many people, and you may have to add referees to barely count.

But Durant's fast break choices were not good.

He passed to Waiters on the left. Waiters caught the ball and didn't shoot. Instead, he feinted and shot in.

Li Liang was anxious when he saw this choice, you go in and kill, don't you see how fast the warriors retreat?

There are already people inside, if you kill in there again, don't you jump into the pit?

It's better to try to shoot one from the outside. The Warriors are so crowded inside that I can still rush up to grab an offensive rebound or something.

As a result, Waiters went inside, failed to make a shot, and fell into the Warriors' crowd.

People go in, the ball is gone.

The Warriors made mistakes after such intensive defense tonight is really quite powerful.

Lei Ting, who is so stubborn, has already made many mistakes.

This is also the difference between the Warriors' defense and the Thunder.

The Thunder is a long-handed spider with a large coverage area, high strength, and strong high-altitude defense capabilities.

But the Warriors are fast-moving, a few steals masters don't attack you in the next three lanes, and directly steal the ball and push back.

In the counterattack, Curry advanced with the ball, and a very, very wonderful pass through the crotch hit the ground, passed through Durant's crotch, and gave it to Barnes.

It was originally a must-go goal, but Barnes' layup with both hands was interfered by Singler who followed behind, and he didn't make it!

Barnes himself couldn't believe it when he landed.

Li Liang followed up to accept the ball and praised Singler.

This guy really has something. He frightened Barnes, and actually scared Barnes.

Li Liang held the ball and pushed back. Needless to say, the Warriors still pressed up with three people.

The left corner of Waiters was completely vacated, and Li Liang made a large oblique pass to Waiters.

Waiters catches and throws the ball and misses...

Li Liang is going to scold Gan Liliang again, why can't he fill in all the vacancies?

In fact, in the fourth quarter, as the intensity of the game increases and physical strength declines, the shooting percentage will drop.

Only Li Liang, who is so concerned, will be more accurate when it comes to critical moments.

The two sides fought for another two or three rounds, and the inside line was turned on their backs, with all kinds of fouls.

But it just didn't score.

The Warriors didn't care about Li Liang, but they just attacked Li Liang.

Then it was Green one-on-one to Durant, and the rest of the people loved it.

The Thunder finally relied on Kanter to hit a hook at the basket and scored two points.

On the Warriors side, Varejao cheated for another foul at the basket and made two free throws.

Kerr replaced Curry with nine minutes left in the fourth quarter.

On Thunder's side, Donovan also asked Li Liang to rest, and both of them were preparing for the final battle.

83:91, still a gap of 8 points.

Westbrook is back on the court.

The Thunder are a bit dangerous, and the core of the Warriors is on the field.

However, Westbrook's first ball on the court was passed to Durant.

Durant hit Green with his back at the top of the arc, and he made a golden rooster independent fadeaway jumper and made a steady hit!

83:93, the point difference came to 10 points.

Then, Iguodala missed a three-pointer from the outside.

The Thunder counterattacked, Westbrook rushed forward with the ball, and the horns seemed to be about to stop for a jumper, but when he was in the air, he suddenly passed the ball to Kanter who was down, and Kanter made a layup that caused Bogut's foul!

The disadvantage of Bogut's slow speed is once again magnified.

Kanter made two free throws, and the point difference came to 12 points, with 8 minutes left before the end of the fourth quarter.

The Thunder still showed strong strength in the second half.

The Big Three took turns to play and lead the team to play. You hit me with a hammer, and the Warriors who played the number one in the league were a little out of breath.

Of course, it's the Warriors. If it were another team, they would have surrendered by now.

While the Warriors were far from surrendering, Curry was still sitting off the court waiting for CD.

Kerr managed Curry's minutes well tonight, keeping him in good shape.

In the absence of Curry, the Warriors played a team offense, using Thompson as the engine of the offense.

With continuous coverage from the outside, the Thunder chased Clay with two men, and Clay passed the ball to Livingston.

Livingston dribbled inside, played Robertson with a back single, hit a fadeaway jumper, and caused Robertson's thug foul.

Livingston fulfilled his championship dream in the Clippers, and reached a new peak in his career in the Warriors.

His mid-range jumper is practiced very well, and he has the style of Sam Cassell back then.

Seemingly unremarkable, but the ball is deadly. He often suddenly hits the middle distance during the fast break and counterattack, which is hard to defend.

The additional penalty was also hit, 86:95, and the difference between the two sides came to 9 points.

On the Thunder's side, Durant once again caught the ball from the outside and threw a three-pointer.

The ball spun around the basket, and finally fell out. The fans at the scene were extremely regretful.

Durant was still a little anxious. The opportunity for this ball was good, but he failed to make a shot.

The Warriors played steadily, and Green received the ball in a low post to support, and then passed the ball to Thompson on the other side.

Thompson took a tentative step after catching the ball and took a step in. He stopped and hit a jumper again.

The point difference is approaching again.

The Thunder still relied on Durant to attract a double-team, and then distributed the ball to Robertson, who was open in the left corner.

The Warriors completely emptied their defense against Robertson. Robertson lived up to expectations and missed a three-pointer.

Li Liang stomped his feet as he watched, not entering such a large space.

Fortunately, Kanter grabbed an offensive rebound at the basket and made a tip-up.

On the Warriors side, Klay Thompson missed a three-pointer from the outside, but Barnes also grabbed a rebound.

Pass back to Green, who is passing the ball to Iguodala at the basket.

Iguodala makes a clever pass behind and then to Barnes.

This time Barnes dunked with both hands under the basket steadily.

90:97, the Warriors' offense is still very tacit and superb.

In the case of falling behind, he played calmly.

Cole also suppressed his mentality and continued to let Curry rest.

Li Liang didn't go, and Curry wasn't in a hurry.

Without Curry, the Warriors may not have been as sharp offensively, but they have displayed elite defense on the defensive end.

Thompson defended Westbrook one-on-one and directly blocked the shot.

Green was in the middle again, facing Adams' dunk rushing towards him after catching the ball, and directly face to face with a big cap!

This ball is a very nice cap.

Moreover, Adams stepped on the line and went out of bounds in the end, and it was still the Warriors' possession of the ball.

Of course, the Thunder's defense was also very fierce, blocking the Warriors' quick counterattacks consecutively and maintaining the point difference.

Both sides are waiting, waiting for their strongest players to come on the field and play out the final minutes of the fourth season.

After a chaotic battle, the scores of the two sides remained unchanged, still 90:97.

Green got together with Westbrook while defending, and the two sides scrambled for the ball.

The game entered a timeout period.

Li Liang took off his sports jacket. He knew that the final decisive moment of the Christmas battle was coming.
