Chapter 211 Victory, mission rewards, our world!(1/7)
Author: Linhe Xianyuweng
No one expected the tiebreaker of the Western Conference Finals to be so exciting!
Before the game, the Thunder, who thought they would be sure to win, were dismantled offensively and defensively by Coach D during the game.
In the end, the Thunder had been falling behind since the start of the game, and with 18 seconds left in the final game, the Thunder even trailed by 5 points!
Just when the whole world was shouting that Coach D was great.
The Thunder duo, the two most amazing duos in the NBA in recent seasons, have shown their greatest unpredictability!
Durant paid tribute to Mai Zi’s incredible lying-down 3+1!
Westbrook's incredible offensive rebound from behind Antetokounmpo!
Finally, Durant’s perfect off-the-ball three-pointer was a perfect match!
The last 18 seconds of regular time in this game made the entire basketball world scream.
The plot of this game, this 18-second plot, made countless people scream with their throats broken!
Especially the last 18 seconds are comparable to the last 35 seconds of the Lakers and Spurs Game 7!
In the final 35 seconds of the tiebreaker between the Lakers and Spurs, Maizi and Yao Ming scored 13 points together, 13 points in 35 seconds!
In these 18 seconds, the Thunder scored 7 points.
To be precise, Durant was 14 seconds and 7 minutes!
Whether it was the previous Lakers moment or the Durant moment in this game, it was a miraculous moment when God suddenly shined.
It's just different.
God was on the Lakers' side last time.
This time, God is on Thunder’s side!
This is very reasonable.
This reflects God's fairness.
It's just that this kind of fairness has broken the hearts of countless Lakers fans in front of the TV and shattered the dreams of countless Chinese fans.
Leading by 5 points in the last 18 seconds!
What a beautiful picture, what a huge advantage!
They never dreamed that in the end they would become the backdrop for miracles like the Spurs and Knicks did before!
If the Thunder successfully defeat the Lakers and advance to the Finals in this game, then tonight's 'Thunder Moment' will definitely go down in history like the previous Miller Moments and Lakers Moments!
Turning the impossible into possible is the charm of competitive sports!
Therefore, only Lakers fans and Chinese fans are heartbroken at this time, while other fans are going crazy for such a moment.
They were all shocked that the two young men from the Thunder shined in the end and snatched the victory away from Coach D and the Lakers.
They were all shocked by Coach D's coaching career. For the first time in their lives, their smiles froze, and their eyes showed shock and disbelief.
In the past 18 seconds, there were really too many shocks and too many firsts!
After all, even Coach D was shocked, let alone others.
The Thunder duo is really the most incredible combination in the entire NBA. They are really different from the Rockets' "Lantern" combination. Under the smiles of coaches Yao and D, the Lantern combination is heading towards despair step by step and has no ability to escape.
As for the Thunder's two young men, Durant and Westbrook, they were in the big net woven by Coach D, and under Yao's desperate hands, they tore the net from the inside and kicked away the big hand!
In the end, they also rewrote their own destiny!
Even O'Neal, Kenny Smith and Barkley looked at the statistics of Westbrook and Durant in the fourth quarter and shouted incredulously.
This crazy fourth quarter of this game.
Westbrook made 5 of 12 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, scored 14 points, had 3 assists, 4 offensive rebounds and 0 turnovers, causing Yao Ming to commit 2 fouls, causing Roy's final injury, and finally grabbed the most critical shot.
An offensive rebound. In the fourth quarter, Westbrook was attacking for most of the time, and Durant took a rest.
Although Westbrook has made 12 of 28 shots and 1 of 7 three-pointers in this game so far, his shooting percentage is extremely low, but Westbrook is terrifyingly calm in this game.
So far, Durant has made 12 of 27 and 6 of 13 three-pointers. In the final fourth quarter, Durant made 5 of 5, 3 of 3 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 17 shots in a single quarter.
points, the craziest of which was the 7 points in the last 14 seconds.
Durant and Westbrook scored 31 of the Thunder's 34 points in the fourth quarter!
Such terrifying firepower!
Only such terrifying firepower can stop Yao Ming, who scored 20 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in the fourth quarter!
Even beat Yao Ming and Coach D!
Players from the Lakers and Thunder have already taken the court.
At this time, Yao was still looking at Durant and Westbrook on the court in disbelief.
It can be seen how shocked the Thunder and Yao were in the fourth quarter of this game!
"Coach D hasn't given up yet, but all of us know that this game is over for the Lakers!"
"Yao cannot play, and even Yao may be injured now. Garry Vitti has been massaging Yao's ankle. His 2+1 that caused Westbrook to foul at the last moment seemed to have a slight sprain."
For a big center, even a slight sprained foot may cause big problems.
There is absolutely no way Coach D will let Yao play again in this game.
And Roy was injured again.
Artest and Ebanks, who performed well in this game, also had explosive physical strength at this time.
The two of them guarded these two beasts, Durant and Westbrook, for a whole game!
Durant and Westbrook also don't have much physical strength right now.
but!
Such an atmosphere!
So excited!
Many times, you can create a lot of unnecessary physical strength out of nothing!
In fact, after the players from both sides took the field, Westbrook was beating his chest crazily and screaming crazily, without any sign of exhaustion of his physical strength.
At such a critical moment, to be able to do such a waste of energy, you tell me, Westbrook's energy is exhausted?
What a joke!
"This guy is just like the young Kobe and Jordan, he is a monster!"
O'Neal is still in a state of shock.
He announced before that Yao had won and the Lakers had won.
Victory was snatched away by those two monsters from Thunder!
Overtime.
There are no substitutions for the players on both sides of the court on the Thunder team. They are still Adams, Durant, Carter, Westbrook and Reggie Jackson.
As for the Lakers, the lineup has changed drastically, with Oden, Antetokounmpo, Covington, Reggie Miller and McAway.
Seeing the Lakers' lineup and the black crown headband on Oden's head, the Lakers fans in front of the TV are now even more desperate.
"Coach D didn't go with Ebanks, Artest, or O'Neal. He ultimately chose to believe in the team's rookie players!"
"Actually, Coach D had no choice. Artest defended Durant at the end of the fourth quarter and was obviously unable to keep up with Durant. He even rolled and crawled without stopping Durant from running without the ball to catch and shoot.
As for O'Neal Jr., during Oden's break in the fourth quarter, he partnered with Yao and played almost the entire fourth quarter.
As for Ebanks, he was one of the Lakers' most tired players in this game. During regular time, Ebanks played 40 minutes, almost either guarding Durant or Westbrook."
"However, even so, it is still incredible that Coach D dared to use three rookie players at the last moment in such a crucial overtime game!"
Yes.
This is true!
Isn’t Carter of the Thunder tired?
Do you, Ken Brooks, dare to let Carter come down to rest?
Carter's tying three-pointer at the end of the fourth quarter was deformed. In the end, it didn't look like it was a shot, it looked like it was a smash!
Of course, this also resulted in Westbrook being able to beat Antetokounmpo to grab this offensive rebound.
Overtime started and the two sides jumped the ball again.
A jump ball in overtime is much more important than a jump ball in regular time.
It doesn't really matter whether you win or lose during the regular time jump ball. Anyway, the winning side will have two first attacks in four quarters, and the losing side will also have two first attacks. The winning side will have one more opportunity to take the lead.
But overtime.
There is no second, third or fourth quarter!
