After a two-day break, the Thunder and the Lakers' game continued to play in Oklahoma City. This is also the second home game of the Thunder Series. For them, if they continue to lose, they will lose the series. All the initiative in the game is also the same for the Lakers. If they fail to win the game, the home advantage they struggle to grab will be lost again.

This is an aspirational game for both sides.

Three games are still playing on the same day, but almost everyone has set their sights on this group duel.

In the locker room before the game, Tang Tian was also making the final mobilization to his team members.

"Tonight is a special night, because for us, it is a game of winning or going home, as most of you have experienced in the NCAA, we want to go further and we must win This game!

I'm not alarmist.

Don't think that this team made it to the finals last year, and this year will definitely be able to reach the finals. There is no connection between them. Every year is a new challenge. If we don't put out our best, then we may lose. Here, lose in the first round.

This is really not alarmist.

Two years ago, the Spurs fell in the first round like this. Seven years ago, the Mavericks fell in the first round like this. They, like us, are first in the division and are the teams that set the goal to the championship.

So forget our record, forget everything in the past, and put all your attention into the game in front of you.

Barkley is right. We are a young team and we have to be aggressive in order to win the series.

Well, let's get on top of it!

tonight!

In this arena!

Use all your power!

Just go for it!

Defeat your opponent! "

The members of the Thunder team were already **** in their eyes, Westbrook and Bezmore couldn't help yelling.

Like Buckley said, the Thunder's players are young, but because of their youth, such chicken soup has an explosive effect on them.

The atmosphere at Chesapeake Energy Arena tonight is also unprecedentedly enthusiastic. When the Thunder team members just came out of the player channel, there was already a cheering sound on the scene.

In the cheers of the fans, the starting players of both sides appeared one after another.

Both sides maintained their previous starting lineup.

In the cheers of the fans at the scene, Ibaka jumped over Howard and gained the opportunity for the Thunder to lead the attack.

Kidd's perimeter organization, the Thunder crossed the screen, and by the time Durant held the ball, his opponent had become Nash.

It can be seen from the tactical movement of the first round that the Thunder have made great tactical adjustments.

Kobe directly came to the double-handed, Durant threw the ball and passed to Westbrook, who flew for a layup and scored two points.

There was cheering at the scene.

The Thunder's tactics are quite targeted and very smooth.

Back on the defensive end, Westbrook posted Kobe dead and continued to fight against his physical strength. Kobe took a long lap before continuing the ball.

Bryant called the pick-and-roll, others pulled away, and Gasol mentioned the high post.

The Thunder still chose to attack Kobe at this time, but what changed with the game is that Dior and Westbrook both held their hands forward and created a large passing obstacle.

After Kobe took the initiative to dribble back two steps, he jumped and passed the ball to Gasol.

Gasol took the ball and turned to Durant.

The Thunder's defense changed again at this time, Durant directly let Artest assist in defense.

Gasol raised his head, and Durant's long arms were still held up. Although the two were in different positions, they still interfered after raising their hands.

Gasol glanced at the rim and chose to pass the ball to Artest.

Artest's three-pointer on the perimeter, after seeing Dior's defense rotation, he chose to shoot before that.

"boom!"

Artest jumped out of the basket and the three-pointer was not his specialty.

Ibaka received a defensive rebound, and the Thunder played a defensive counterattack.

After Dior ran over to catch the ball, a long pass was thrown to the field, and Westbrook immediately left all Lakers players behind.

In the early part of the season, Tang Tian made a transformation to Westbrook, allowing him to change from having the ball to not having it, but also retaining his singles and fast break. Still a ride in the dust.

Westbrook rushed to the front with the ball, and it was a forceful one-handed split.

The entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was instantly lit.

This is the role of Westbrook, who can use the most violent way to instantly improve team morale.

"Defend! Defend!"

This time without the help of a DJ, fans have begun to shout for the team to cheer.

Kobe also faced a double team in the frontcourt. This time he chose to play with the ball himself, but Westbrook and Dior were very tight. He never found a suitable offensive opportunity. Seeing that the offensive time was coming, he could only pass the ball Give Nash.

Nash hurriedly failed to get rid of Kidd in front of him. The three-pointer retreat eventually ended with iron. Durant jumped up and received a long rebound.

Westbrook dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and saw Durant misplaced against Gasol during the retreat, giving the ball directly.

Durant leaned around and turned around, leaping away from Gasol in a cross step, rushing to the layup and entering.

D'Antoni couldn't sit still, got up from the bench and walked to the sidelines.

Kobe is still entangled by Westbrook, and the other players are always double-teamed. After being bombarded by Old Kobe 43 points, the Thunder will never give him a chance to score easily.

Nash looked for Gasol's pick-and-roll and returned to Gasol after taking it apart. Gasol's high jumper was not interfered by Kidd, but he responded quickly and won the long rebound.

"boom!"

Ibaka leapt forward, and flew Gasol's shot to the front cover.

Although gaining muscle and increasing confrontation, Ibaka's defense and bounce have not weakened at all!

The ball was fanned and went directly to the outside Durant. He took the ball and struck the meteor forward.

Kobe struggled to defend.

Rushing to the frontcourt ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ To see Kobe, Durant lifted the ball high, and gliding sharply in the free throw step.

"boom!"

"beep!"

The moment the ball was scored, the referee's whistle sounded.

This is a 2 + 1!

The Thunder opened a wave of 8-0!

D'Antoni held his forehead and called for a timeout.

After Durant landed, he was very excited, and there was a **** roar at the scene.

Losing the first game, in the eyes of the media, they have been nailed to the black eight, but like Tang Tian ’s speech, their goal is the champion. Before completing this, they have to put all their efforts and focus on it.

Just go for it!
