The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Although the situation fell behind 0 to 2, although the team looked a little precarious, the enthusiasm of Oklahoma City fans remained undiminished.

Teams in this small city have a very solid fan base.

Pisacek Energy Arena was full of attendance, and the fans held up the KT boards of the Four Young Masters. The atmosphere on the scene was extremely strong.

When the Thunder team members came out, there was a burst of cheers at the scene.

And what made them even more excited was that Westbrook held Durant's arm with his left hand and Harden's shoulder with his right hand. The three came out talking and laughing!

Chapter 261 The X Factor (4/5)

Because no news has flowed out, the outside world does not know the specific reasons for the internal conflicts of the Thunder.

But seeing San Shao come out with his shoulders crossed like this now, it shows that the internal conflict has been resolved!

When Popovich saw this, although there was no change in his expression, he knew in his heart that this game would not be as easy as the previous two games.

The opening ceremony at the scene was overwhelming. When the Thunder made their debut, it felt like the roof of the entire Pisacek Energy Arena was about to be torn off.

It really feels like a return to the NCAA.

Brooks did not make adjustments in the starting lineup, and the Thunder are still in the regular lineup.

The game started quickly, and Durant ran without the ball and scored a goal at the beginning.

His performance like this is completely different from his appearance, and it seems that his mentality has been adjusted.

"This is Kevin Durant!"

Fans shouted from the sidelines.

The Spurs attacked the frontcourt, and it was not Durant who defended Tang Tian, ​​but Sefoloza.

After 0 to 2, the Thunder finally got the hang of it.

Green ran without the ball, but the effect was not as good as Tang Tian's, and he didn't dare to keep running without Tang Tian's stamina bar.

Seeing that the Spurs' offense was about to return in vain, Parker broke through to the basket and scored 2 points at the buzzer.

Tang Tian ran out and Durant became the focus of everyone's attention, but the most stable thing for the Spurs was "GDP".

Thunder team changes, they can cope with the same.

With Westbrook's frontcourt organization, Durant had no chance to be followed by Tang Tian, ​​and he didn't force him, but instead moved to create space.

Westbrook's drive to the basket caused Diaw's thugs.

In the two rounds of selection, Durant really came back, and even because he didn't have to defend Tang Tian, ​​he was that superstar with ease again.

More than 9 minutes into the first quarter, the score on the field was 21.

The two sides played evenly.

Both teams came on the bench one after another.

The Thunder is led by Harden, plus Fisher, Daequan Cook, Collison and Ibaka.

The Spurs are led by Ginobili, Mills, Leonard, Diaw and Splitter.

Ginobili's layup was directly blocked by Ibaka, and the ball went to Harden.

Harden directly accelerated to play a defensive counterattack.

He hadn't gained weight at this time, and his speed was really fast. He rushed to the frontcourt in one dragon, and directly leaned on Mills to score the ball.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

Harden's performance in the first two games was mediocre. Instead of pressing him to play time, Brooks let him lead the team alone in the transition period.

He is really a bit super-level this time.

Manu Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough in the frontcourt paid off.

Looking back, Harden broke through to attract double-teams and then gave the ball to Fisher on the outside.

Fisher also made an open three-pointer.

When the main lineups of the two sides were inseparable, Harden appeared as the X factor.

The two teams failed to make consecutive offenses, and Ginobili also missed a three-pointer with a step-back step in the frontcourt.

In the Thunder's final attack of this quarter, Harden singled out Manu Ginobili and made consecutive three-pointers.

Ginobili pounced to give enough interference.

Harden's shooting was obviously disturbed and he was forced to increase his recoil.

A shot almost at the buzzer.

"boom!"

The ball hit the backboard, but bounced and went into the net bag!

29 is better than 23!

Harden contributed 2 points and 6 assist in 1 minutes, leading the team to open the point difference to 6 points!

Back in the second quarter, Popovich replaced Tang Tian early, which was obviously aimed at Harden.

But Brooks continued to perform super-level over there, and then put Durant on the court.

The Spurs came up to attack first, Dior and Tang Tian called, Tang Tian used the pick-and-roll to catch the ball and hit a three-pointer.

Looking back, Harden was stared down by Tang Tian. He directly organized the attack and scored Durant's three-pointer to pay back.

Harden performed really well tonight, and the offensive organization caught them all with one hand!

Popovich hurriedly replaced Green.

Dior gave the ball from a high position to Splitter under the basket, but Splitter's shot was interfered by Ibaka and missed.

Harden took the ball and played a fast break, and made a tough shot against Green's defense, causing the latter to hit.

Popovich froze for a moment on the sidelines.

Now the Spurs are really in trouble.

Both Durant and Harden are in such a good state, so good that no one can play a limiting role except Tang Tian.

Green can't, and neither can Leonard.

Only one of the three flanks can be used, but there are two people on the opposite side.

And when Popovich just tried to make Tang Tian defend Harden and double-team Durant, Brooks continued to perform superbly and replaced Westbrook.

"You are the best coach, Brooks!"

Some fans shouted from the sidelines, and some die-hard fans were even more moved to tears.

The four young masters finally played the performance they wanted to see!

After three quarters, the score on the court was 90 to 81.

Although the performances of the four young players are very good, the Spurs are not bad.

In the fierce battle in the last quarter, except for Duncan who was resting, Popovich put all the other four main players up.

This is obviously the meaning of an early decisive battle.

Brooks over there is also straightforward, and the four young masters go into battle together.

One thing I have to admit is that Duncan and Ginobili of the Spurs are both too old, and they certainly can't compare with the four young players in terms of physical strength.

If the four are young, playing a full quarter is not a problem at all.

With Westbrook's organization, Harden came out to catch the ball and made a difficult three-pointer.

There are already fans at the scene raising their hands in gestures of God.

This is Harden's 23rd point of the game.

93 to 81, the Thunder once again opened the point difference to double digits.

"Defense! Defense!"

Pisacek Energy Arena cheered loudly.

The Thunder team is young, and the defensive intensity soars amid the cheers. The Spurs are about to be defended for 24 seconds.

Tang Tian showed his big heart at this time, catching the ball and making a three-pointer at the buzzer.

"Shh!"

Like a basin of cold water being poured on a fiery arena, the monstrous arrogance at the scene was obviously suppressed.

Popovich was applauding from the sidelines at this time.

This three-pointer is extremely critical for the Spurs.

Westbrook continued to organize the Thunder's offense. At this time, Harden cut in from the left to the right, went around Ibaka's pick-and-roll, and then shot a three-pointer against Dior's outside defense.

"Shh!"

Let's go!

"James~~Harden!!"

Accompanied by the shout of the host who elongated the tone, the scene once again boiled.

Harden's 27th point!

He was the absolute X factor tonight!

Tang Tian was followed by Harden in the frontcourt, and Dior received Parker's pass to the basket for an empty cut layup.

"boom!"

Ibaka chased from behind and nailed the big hat directly.

After Ibaka grabbed the defensive rebound, the Thunder played a fast break again.

Harden and Durant followed suit, making a fast break on the third line.

Westbrook flicks the ball to Harden, Harden catches the ball and shoots.

Ginobili chased the ball to block and hit Harden's hand directly.

Harden was disturbed and lost his balance, but after the ball was shot, he still scored!

3+1!

Harden has gone crazy!

Chapter 262 The 90-year-old Yquem wine (5/5)

After Harden scored, Westbrook went straight to his chest and Durant also roared at him.

15 points difference, plus penalty!

Harden's three three-pointers directly changed the entire situation on the court.

His three three-pointers also proved that he can not only play with the ball, play organization, but also play off the ball!

Popovich was forced to play Manu Ginobili and Duncan early.

But tonight Ginobili was obviously overwhelmed by Harden, and the Spurs failed to catch up in the end.

112 to 102, the Thunder finally defeated the Spurs at home, tying the series to 1-2.

Harden scored a game-high 30 points and 7 assists.

威斯布鲁克有17分11助攻6篮板，杜兰特也得到27分，伊巴卡10分11板5盖帽。

The four young masters all showed their own style.

And more importantly than winning is that they found a way to beat the Spurs!
