Chapter 260
The Thunder, trailing 0:3, lost all confidence.
Two days later.
When G4 came, when the match point came, the Thunder had a panic buff.
A losing game, a losing series.
What fighting spirit was there?!
Even if it was still at their home court tonight, even if the cheers of the Thunder fans were still loud.
But.
The confidence that was completely destroyed by Su Hao really couldn't be restored overnight.
The game still had to be played.
But tonight the Thunder wanted to win the next game, even if it made the series loss less ugly.
This was not easy.
Because... the Thunder, with a lack of fighting spirit, wanted to win, and the Clippers, with full confidence, also wanted to take the series away in one wave.
They wanted to sweep their opponents.
They didn't want any accidents or mistakes.
A very good and very bad duel.
The Thunder was in disarray. In the G4 match point duel, the Clippers took the absolute initiative on the court from the first attack.
They pressed the Thunder throughout the game.
They didn't give the Thunder a chance to breathe.
The Thunder, in disarray.
The Clippers led by 6 points in the first quarter and widened the gap to 10 points at halftime, which was not considered���More.
But.
Back in the second half, the sides changed and the game resumed.
Su Hao gave the"Thunder Three" a block at the beginning, and played an offensive storm.
A total of 5 minutes and 17 seconds.
The Clippers launched a terrifying 19:5 attack, and the score difference was widened to 24 points in a breath.
The Thunder was defeated.
This is bound to happen.
The last quarter.
The game has been played, but all the Thunder members still have to bite the bullet and play, otherwise... the fans will definitely be angry.
That is not a good thing for the entire Thunder.
It has been persisting for about 8 minutes, and the score difference is still more than 22 points.
The Thunder has no hope.
The Clippers have already replaced the starters, and the Thunder, who persisted for three or four minutes more, now completely gave up.
The game has become garbage time.
On the Thunder bench.
Third-year Durant, second-year Westbrook and rookie Harden, these three players who will become kings and top MVPs in the future.
Now they are too immature and are still leveling up and growing.
The three of them looked empty-eyed. Their first playoff defeat was hard for them to accept.
Everyone was unhappy.
The most important thing was... they didn't lose because of"GDP"The Spurs are not the Suns led by"Son of the Wind" Nash and"Little Overlord" Stoudemire.
It is not the defending champion Lakers led by"Black Mamba" Kobe.
If it was a super strong team led by these superstars, the young Thunder would have accepted it.
But now the one who defeated him is a rookie younger than them, even if it is the new No. 1 pick.
That is hard to accept.
Even if they know that they must not treat Su Hao as an ordinary rookie.
But they really lost.
There is always a hurdle in my heart that I can't get over, and I always feel that it shouldn't be, unreasonable, and impossible!!!
31 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 8 blocks.
Su Hao used a super gorgeous performance as always, winning 23 points over the Thunder and leading the team to win again
"wooow" Jon Barry said after the game
:"I thought the Clippers' twin stars and the Thunder's three youngsters were a duel of explosive talent.
""Prehistoric giant crocodile" Su Hao turned the"Thunder Three" into Muggles by himself.
I thought this round of series would be very tense, at least 6 games.
As a result, the Clippers swept the Thunder 4:0, and won every game. This is too exaggerated.
I thought that the"new No. 1 pick" Su Hao would not play well in the first stage of the playoffs, and he should need a few games to adapt.
But it didn't happen at all. In the first game, he played with supermodel dominance like in the regular season, and there was a trend of getting braver and braver.
As a result... Su Hao in the playoffs was more fierce and brave than in the regular season, and more unstoppable."
"That's right."
Kenny Smith nodded in agreement,"If you say that Su Hao in the regular season is a budding"Hulk".
You know he has strong physical fitness, but he didn't give it his all.
But in the playoffs, Su Hao, knowing that his teammates couldn't give him much help, turned into a"prehistoric giant crocodile" and took the initiative to attack, driving the whole team with offense and forcing the team to win.
"Post-season"……Even more fierce!!!"
"Yes, yes, Su Hao……"
The two commentators laughed and sighed, praising and marveling at Su Hao's strength.
The Clippers successfully advanced.
Their opponent in the division semifinals will be the winner of the Spurs and Nuggets series.
Who is stronger in the series?!
Facts have proved that the combination of Billups and Anthony can achieve better results than the"golden double gun" combination of Iverson and Anthony.
However
"GDP"Still stable enough.
Even in the confusing even years, facing the Nuggets, they still played stronger team basketball.
Team basketball + offense and defense.
Even if the Spurs don't have a player who can play at the top comprehensive level in the league.
But they can always hold the victory in their hands.
In the first two games of the series, at their home court, the Spurs played their own smooth passing and cutting, making the Nuggets completely unable to keep up with the rhythm.
Both games were lost.
The third game of the series returned to the Nuggets' home court. This is a game they must win.
The Nuggets are united.
Anthony has a very good touch in his own arena, coupled with Billups' wonderful passes and assists.
""Swish, swish, swish!"
Anthony made consecutive hits.
He turned into an offensive kaleidoscope, using different means to score on various Spurs players.
It seemed that there was no solution.
And the"Melo" who completely broke out was really unstoppable.
The Spurs couldn't bear it.
G3 loss.
The Nuggets changed the series score to 1:2, which instantly made the series more suspenseful.
Will they win another game in G4 at home?
No.
The Spurs didn't want to tie the score.
They readjusted themselves, strengthened the defense against Anthony, and strangled the Nuggets' strongest offensive point first.
So that the Nuggets could not gain momentum.
Even if the Nuggets role players scored some points,���To help the team gain some lead.
But the Spurs are not in a hurry.
Because they are role players, they can't always be efficient, they will show flaws.
So... as long as the Spurs catch the flaws, they can quickly catch up and win the game.
What is the fact?
That's right.
The Spurs put high-intensity defense on Anthony from the first quarter, so that they fell behind by 6 points in the first quarter.
They fell behind by 9 points at halftime.
But they came back in the second half.
With Anthony still being guarded and in poor condition, the role players' offense was also silent.
The Spurs took advantage of the victory.
They won 10 points in a single quarter, not only wiping out the score difference, but also overtaking by one point, and then gradually expanding the score.
There were three minutes left in the last quarter.
The Spurs had a seven-point lead.
Not much.
But the Spurs were too stable, and it was very difficult to catch up with him.
And the Nuggets' absolute core, Anthony's offense was slow to open, making it even more difficult for them to catch up.
The Spurs won another away game.
The series score came to 3:1, and the Spurs had three match points, almost locking in the series victory.
G5.
At the Spurs' home court, they could have taken the Nuggets by storm, but the metaphysics of even-numbered years made the whole team suddenly lose their momentum, and the Nuggets beat them by 17 points, sending them a miserable defeat.
The series score was 3:2.
The Nuggets brought the victory back to their home court, intending to win another game and drag the series into a tiebreaker.
So.
After chasing two sets in a row, they have an absolute confidence advantage even if they play a tiebreaker away from home.
They are expected to stage a big reversal.
Who would have thought... In the sixth game of the series, the Spurs players exploded, and in the first quarter, they launched an amazing 18:3 offensive storm.
In an instant, the Spurs became the absolute champion team again, and the Nuggets fled in panic.
There was no tiebreaker.
The Spurs defeated the Nuggets in game 6, with a big score of 4:2, won the series, and successfully advanced.
In this way, the first group of opponents in the Western Conference semifinals was released, and it was: Clippers vs. Spurs!!!
