?　　 After the first quarter of the game, the two sides are basically in a similar situation. With the explosion of Gasol, the Raptors chased the Thunder's wide range in the final stage.

　　 In the second quarter, the situation of the game did not change much. Neither the bench nor the main force, the Raptors or the Thunder, have played a one-sided offense.

　　 At the beginning, Nas only left Siakam on the field. After all, players like Gasol, Danny Green, and Lowry played almost the entire first quarter, and they were physically exhausted. Leonard got a lot of rest time in the first quarter. He basically played and ended at the same time as Paul George. Now that Paul George did not play, Nas did not let Leonard play. However, the better player is not Siakam. Ibaka and Van Fleet, inside and outside, carried the Raptors' offense. For the remaining two players, Powell is barely quite satisfactory, and McCaw basically has no sense of existence.

　　 On the Thunder side, Donovan put An Luo and Grant on the court. Basically, the Thunder's possession of the ball is concentrated in An Luo's hands. He does have a very good offense, but it has little effect on the overall situation of the game. Especially for shots from beyond the three-point line, Anlo scored a goal, and Van Vleet can always score.

　　 However, although it failed to achieve the goal Donovan intended, the final situation did not get worse. At least, the Thunder still maintained a five-point lead when the two main players returned to the field one after another. For the Thunder, which has always played a strong offense in the third quarter, such a situation is completely acceptable.

　　 Throughout the Thunder's performance throughout the season, the third quarter is undoubtedly their strongest stage. One-third of their games were won in the third quarter. Among them, the games that took the lead in the first half accounted for only a small part.

　　 The third quarter was a period of time when all teams that played against the Thunder were very afraid. Of course, for Thunder fans, as long as the second half of the game begins, all worries will disappear. The Thunder themselves are full of confidence. After all, to defeat the opponent in the third quarter, that is their familiar rhythm. Unfortunately, the Thunder did not perform well. They were caught off guard by the Raptors at the beginning of the third quarter.

　　 In the second half, the Thunder and Raptors are both the main players. After a break of more than twenty minutes, the players have re-stored enough energy, gearing up one by one, wanting to do a big game.

　　 The Raptors took the lead in attacking. Lowry brought the ball from the bottom line to the top of the arc, then stopped. He didn't rush to break through. The Thunder's defense line has been built, and blindly rushing in can easily leave himself in a situation of isolation and helplessness. Lori thought for a moment, then he dipped the ball to Gasol, who was standing under the basket, and then went straight into the left elbow from the free throw line. At this time, Danny Green, who was originally on the left, immediately took a step forward and made a pick and roll. Lori used this cover to escape Westbrook from the bottom corner. At the same time, Gasol under the basket tried a few times, still not sure to score the ball under Adams's defense, so he simply passed the ball back to Lowry. The space in the bottom corner is too small, and Danny Green alone can block a comfortable shot space for Lowry. Lowry shot immediately after receiving the ball, and his position had already been adjusted.

　　 "Huh!"

　　 The goal is scored! This is actually a very simple cooperation, as long as the three people involved in the attack have a tacit understanding between each other. Of course, it is more important to be able to invest.

　　 The score is further reduced, but the Thunder have the right to offense and they can respond.

　　 Looking back, Westbrook swung past Lowry from outside the three-point line, but instead of thrusting in, he took a step back to the left. After getting away from Lowry, he pulled up and threw the ball. Such a hasty offensive method surprised everyone! You know, in this season, Westbrook rarely shoots three-pointers. Especially when Anlo and Paul George are on the court, he rarely shoots outside the three-point line. It's not that he is not good at three-pointers. His three-pointer was okay, but it was too unstable. When the hand feels good, it's common to not say that you get hits and hits. But when the hand feels bad, he won't make any shots.

　　 Tonight, Westbrook feels bad.

　　 The basketball hit the edge of the hoop, bounced high, and was snatched by Gasol. Later, he raised his hands and threw the ball to Siakam outside the three-point line. The latter shot the ball forward and rushed towards the penalty area.

　　 Grant retreated quickly, and Paul George followed Siakam. But the latter did not panic. After steadily controlling the ball and rushing to the free throw line, his right arm was protecting the basketball, and his left arm was stretched forward to block Grant. Paul George also jumped up, he jumped very high, UUreading www.uukanshu.com, patted the basketball with his right hand.

"Snapped!"

　　 If Paul George shoots basketball, this is a perfect defense. Unfortunately, Siakam suddenly stretched his hand up and "sent" it directly to Paul George. At this time, it is impossible for Paul George to take his hand back. He can only use more energy to prevent the opponent from hitting two plus one.

　　 "Beep!"

　　 The whistle sounded, Siakam stepped to the free throw line, booed, and made two free throws.

　　 Then, Westbrook scored a layup by himself. But this time the scoring did not completely release the Thunder's offensive firepower. After the Raptors improved their defensive strength, it caused a lot of trouble to the Thunder. Of course, the Thunder's defense is equally tough. But the Raptors' offense has not been affected much. They can always score the ball, no matter how.

　　 For a game, as long as the difference in strength is not particularly large, the ups and downs are normal. What's more, when both sides are in a situation where they can win the championship as long as they win the game, everyone will do their best.

　　 One goes down and the other goes up, and the situation takes a turn for the worse. The Thunder's lead was quickly smoothed out by the opponent and overtaken. When Leonard made a super long three-pointer from the three-point line through Gasol's screen, the Thunder's trailing score broke through to double digits for the first time.

　　 Donovan finally called a timeout. At this time, he must interrupt the opponent's rhythm. But how to adjust the Thunder's offense is not an easy task.
