The Thunder's counterattack was staged in the second half of the second quarter.

In the first half, Paul George led the substitute players and the Cavaliers' rotation to a close match. In fact, one of the knights has a deep relationship with the Thunder. Back then, the Celtics got Ray Allen from the Seattle Supersonics, and Jeff Green was an important bargaining chip they sent out. In those two years, Jeff Green and Durant have always been the hope of the entire team. The first three Thunders were not Durant, Westbrook and Harden, but Durant, Jeff Green and Westbrook.

Now Durant is away from Oakland, and Jeff Green has joined the Cavaliers. Of the three youngsters, Westbrook was the only one left to guard Oklahoma City.

In this arena that once regarded himself as hope, Jeff Green ushered in an explosion. In the first half of the second quarter, he became James on the Cavaliers bench. Three points, breakthrough, omnipotence. There are a lot of steals and blocks. But Paul George did not perform well in this period of time. He is very tired! After all, only 2 minutes of rest in the first quarter. And most of the time it was against James. Both energy and physical strength are exhausted. Under such circumstances, not only did the Thunder fail to bring back their own disadvantages, but the Cavaliers made the points worse.

With 7 minutes left in the game, Donovan finally couldn't help it! He directly waved his hand and replaced all his main players on the field. It was this time that the timely substitution allowed the Thunder to avoid the embarrassing situation of the opponent continuing to expand the score.

After coming up, An Luo took the lead in attacking. After receiving a pass from Westbrook at the top of the arc, he patted the ball to the right forty-five degrees. JR is inseparable from him, keeping a distance that threatens his shooting. An Luo was not in a hurry. After conducting back and forth with Robertson in the elbow area twice, he suddenly accelerated and changed to the left to break through. JR followed closely, but An Luo kept getting stuck in front of him.

Seeing An Luo was about to make a layup, TT came to help defend. He leaped forward with teeth and claws, relying on his greatness, forcing An Luo to pass the ball to Adams. However, after he passed the ball, he did not stay in place waiting for Adams' shot. Instead, he rushed to the basket in the original direction, then suddenly turned, flung TT and JR from the bottom line to the right bottom corner.

Adams was unable to throw the ball because of Love! However, he saw An Luo slipping to the bottom corner. So after a fake layup, Adams passed the ball to An Luo. After the latter receives the ball, he has to shoot! Hill, who had made up the defense, flew over directly, but was passed by An Luo's fake action and rushed directly to the audience!

After avoiding George Hill, An Luo shot again! He jumped slightly in place, pulling his body straight. Then he dialed out the basketball in his hand.

"Huh!"

The goal is scored! A very patient attack. After the Thunder conducted many times, they found An Luo in the best position. And finally he will throw the ball in.

This ball didn't seem to arouse much alertness to Teren Lue. After all, in a game, it's normal to shoot a three-pointer. However, after a few minutes, they changed Teren Lue's view.

Following Anlo's three-pointer, Brewer and Westbrook both succeeded inside. Brewer still has some offensive lethality. When Paul George rested, it didn't make the Thunder's offense much lower. He was outside the three-point line and suddenly shot a cold arrow. When James retired, he was caught by Brewer accidentally! An open hand is a three-pointer. Reduce the difference again! Westbrook is more ornamental. He started directly from outside the three-point line and passed George Hill with his best Sam Gold. Then a European step bypassed the TT that came up from the basket and made a layup.

However, in these few rounds, the Cavaliers responded. James' breakthrough and Love's mid-range are huge obstacles to the Thunder's equalization.

Ever since, Donovan called a timeout. He specially arranged the team's defense.

"Guys, we need to change defenses, fill defenses, and defend more quickly. They can keep scoring, which means that our defense is not doing well. To win the championship, we must do defense. Best!" Donovan first emphasized the importance of defense, and then he began to make specific arrangements: "Andre, for James' breakthrough, we must..."

After returning to the game, Anluo got another chance. Under the continuous cover of Adams and Brewer, he crossed the court from the right corner and got a shot at the left corner. Westbrook can always find An Luo's position, especially if it is empty! This time, it is no exception ~lightnovelpub.net~ After An Luo received the ball, he threw the ball before Claude could jump it.

"boom!"

Still a little hasty! The ball was not scored. James grabbed the rebound, and he immediately started a counterattack. However, the Thunder's defense was quite timely. After losing the opportunity to play quickly, James suppressed the rhythm of the offense. He handed the ball to JR from outside the three-point line, and after receiving the ball, he walked in with his back against An Luo.

An Luo sticks to JR, and the force from the opponent is great, but he can handle it. One, two, and in the third, An Luo suddenly withdrew back. JR is also a clever man. He chose to pass the ball to his teammates when his body was unstable due to excessive force. It is a pity that the quality of the ball passed is not good. After being spotted by An Luo, a carp flew forward. Although he fell to the floor, he slapped the basketball in the direction of Westbrook. After receiving the ball, the latter rushed to the other side of the court.

He is fast! In addition, it happened suddenly, and no one in the Cavaliers could catch him! Westbrook rushed directly into the free throw line. After two steps, he flew up, raised the basketball with his right hand, and slammed it into the hoop.

53:52, with less than 3 minutes left in the game, the Thunder overtook the score. Westbrook took a step that his six relatives did not recognize, and high-five An Luo in the middle circle.

An Luo's steals were quick and fast; Westbrook's dunks were heavy. The two gave a wonderful defensive counterattack for the fans of the Chesapeake Energy Arena. As the Thunder improved on the defensive end, the Cavaliers began to feel discomfort. Even James, the offensive efficiency began to decline. The Thunder's counterattack in the second half of the quarter caused the balance of victory to start tilting toward itself.
