Chapter 239: Thrilling blow
"Although the Timberwolves resisted tenaciously, the huge gap in strength is in front of them. I said that Brewer, who performed well now, ended up because of 6 fouls, and the Timberwolves' hope of winning is slim." Yu Jia explained Yi's morning game, and he was already hungry. Now he only hopes that this game without any suspense can end quickly and that he can avoid the suffering of hunger.
After returning from the timeout, Westbrook strolled and advanced in the ball. He had scored 22 points in this game and his shooting percentage was not bad. Seeing the team about to win, Westbrook was also indifferent to desire.
He made a random pass, so Durant received the ball. As the league's scoring champion, Durant also scored a good data of 32 points today. There was no one in front of him who could defend him!
After borrowing Anjie's pick-and-roll, Durant flashed to the right, and without confirming the surrounding environment, he jumped out.
"It's still as easy as yi." Durant smiled. After the ball was scored, the difference became double digits.
Suddenly! Durant's eyes were dark, and a big hand appeared in front of him. This not only disturbed Durant's shooting, but also directly gave Durant a big hotpot.
"What!" Durant looked at the master of his palm in surprise. He was familiar with this person and had been his teammate for two years, Damien Wilkins!
"Wilkins' block! Durant never thought Wilkins would be so active, he never thought that the Timberwolves hadn't given up on resisting yet!"
After the blocking was successful, Wilkins quickly advanced and then passed the ball to Love who was running in the front.
When Yi saw Love catch the ball, the entire defensive lineup of the Thunder retreated to the basket. Unexpectedly, Love did not choose to lay up in the face of the empty basket. He knew that An Jieyi was right behind him, and even if there was no one in front of him, there was a threat of being blocked. Love didn't want to try Anjie's nail-board hat.
Love suddenly passed by side and passed the ball into the inside. The person who was on the outside was Damien Wilkins who quickly joined the attack after stealing.
Damien Wilkins, who followed up, made a quick shot after receiving the ball. It was almost impossible for Anjie to turn around and interfere with the shooting.
"Wilkins' steals and scoring are very important! He took the lead in sounding the Timberwolves' counterattack horn!" Until now, people have really emerged, and the game has not ended yet!
After being "humiliated" by Wilkins with a beautiful steal and a goal, people wanted to see how Durant would respond. However, in front of Wilkins, who became more and more brave and tough in the battle, Durant's shot hit the box again.
Love tried his best to get stuck in the position and took the rebound with difficulty, but at least, it did not give the Thunder a chance to have a second attack.
The Timberwolves' counterattack was very fast. Joni Flynn quickly made the ball and got an open European big man Milicic did not hesitate. He shot before the Thunder's defense was formed.
Milicic may have lost his strength now, but it is still fine for him to shoot just an open spot.
"Dako Milicic? With it! Yio3 to 97, Lambis's decision to replace Jefferson looks very correct! The difference is only six points left, and the Thunder must break the scoring drought!"
It was Durant, and he did not choose to hit Wilkins' defensive hard shot, so he decided to let Anjie look for opportunities in the inside.
However, Durant's pass was interrupted by Love suddenly moving around, but Love did not control the ball. Angel flew forward and also lost. The basketball was picked up by Jonny Flynn first. His rapid advance made a situation of 2-double in the frontcourt.
Westbrook stood in the middle, in a dilemma. I don't know if it was Flynn who should defend the ball or Wilkins who was following up.
Seeing Westbrook hesitating, Flynn suddenly made a throw, and he almost didn't encounter resistance and easily hit a four-pointer!
"Damn it! Mine!" Durant hugged his head in annoyed. As the team leader, he made mistakes frequently at critical moments, and even he felt that he was unforgivable.
Seeing that the 10th advantage disappeared instantly, Van Gundy also made a quick decision and called a pause.
"It's too careless! I said the Timberwolves are not easy to mess with! Kevin, you have become the opponent's key defense target. Next, your task is to have a feint."
Van Gundy looked at his subordinates. Westbrook was not stable enough. Only by letting Anger confront Love was the best way to defend his advantage!
"An, win the game in the last two minutes!" Van Gundy didn't say much else. After assigning the task, he immediately seized the time to arrange the tactics.
"I won't make mistakes again, come on!" The suspension time ended. Before going on the court, Durant promised in front of everyone. Even if it was a feint, he had to complete his mission.
"Durant!" The name is entangled in every Timberwolves player's mind. It is ranked first in the league's scoring list. Such a title does not require Lambis to be arranged, and others will take care of him more.
Even though Durant made a mistake and failed consecutive offenses just now, the Timberwolves players still dare not relax at all.
Everyone focused on Durant, and countless people died at the hands of Durant, the young scoring champion. Durant's active running made the Timberwolves believe that Durant is the final sharp blade.
When Wilkins followed Durant for a long time and Love was preparing to make up for defense for a long time, they were shocked to find that Westbrook's pass did not give Durant, but Anger!
"Faint attack? I'm really coming!" Love had been easily broken through by Anjie because of this problem. He still couldn't make up his mind after replying, but he trusted Wilkins, so Love focused more on Anjie who was holding the ball.
Durant saw Anjie holding the ball and cut inside quickly, and Anjie cooperated to make a fake pass. Suddenly, everyone in the Timberwolves became nervous!
Unexpectedly, An Jie suddenly retracted the ball, stepped forward with his left foot, and he wanted to turn around!
Love quickly took a step back, but Anjie retreated and took a jump shot!
After being deceived by Anjie's first half of the action, Love had no time to react. Anjie's step-removal shooting was coherent. Even though he had not entered the three-second zone yet, for Anjie, the distance was already within his range.
The basketball turned around the basket twice, but finally fell straight
"Man, forget Kevin, it's time for you and me again!" Anjie smiled and provoked Love, but Love couldn't laugh at all.
Love doesn't plan to respond to Anjie with his mouth. Next, the Timberwolves' attack, and Anjie obviously felt that Love's movements were more frequent than before.
However, basketball never came to Love's hands for this attack. Seeing that there were only a few seconds left, Jonny Flynn shot without completely getting rid of Westbrook.
The flight trajectory of the basketball is unexpectedly very positive, but the power is a little stronger. When the ball hits the basket's neck, it looks like it will bounce back.
An Jie turned around and prepared to fight for the rebound, but he was surprised to find that Love had already stood in front of him.
Love's ability to compete for rebounds has improved significantly than in college or even last season. An Jie tried hard to push behind him, but he still failed to move half a step.
Love grabbed the offensive rebound and immediately jumped to the box for a second time. In order not to give Love a chance to score a three-pointer, Anjie gave up blocking.
"Kevin Love took the frontcourt rebound from Anjie's head. Oh my God, this is really rare!" Yu Jia's hunger has long been wiped out, and the anxious game has made him completely addicted to it.
The subsequent game was completely taken over by Anjie and Love. The two of them went back and forth, and neither of them was to be outdone.
At this time, even Anjie had to admire Love's progress. If it were last season, Anjie would never have allowed Love to score continuously. However, now, Love's off-ball running and shooting made Anjie very uncomfortable.
The game ended with thirty seconds left, and Love ran away from Anjie again. Although Anjie had good outside defense, he was still not a special outside defense gate.
Love can really attack like an outside player. After receiving the ball, Love quickly took action. He knew how terrifying the defense ability of the yi6 center was.
Sure enough, as soon as Love took off, Anjie jumped high. Most inside shooters took a very slow shot. If Love hadn't made a very fast shot, the ball would have been blocked by Anjie.
"Damn it, no!" Seeing the basketball crossing his fingers, An Jie suddenly felt cold in his heart.
"Brush." Before he could turn around, he heard the sound of basketball.
Love clenched his fists, and the muscles on his arms were bulging by him. This big white man was venting his emotions. He did not lose to An Jie again today!
"It's been the last thirty seconds of the game, and Coach Van Gundy called for the last timeout. The Thunders have only 2 points lead, and their next attack is crucial!"
That's right, it's crucial. If the Thunder cannot score the ball in the next attack, the situation will be relatively dangerous. After all, Love's condition is very hot today, and who can guarantee that Anjie can defend against the last attack.
"Who would have thought before the game that the Timberwolves would force the Thunder into a desperate situation? Don't underestimate any Yi team, even if the West is at the bottom!"
Morris quickly took the ball out of the sideline, and Westbrook was compressing time. The Timberwolves started to fall in 3 o seconds. The Timberwolves did not use tactical fouls, and they were full of confidence in their defense!
Lambis has the last timeout. If the ball is defensive, the Timberwolves still have a chance to equalize the score! If a tactical foul is used, it will make the Thunder's score easier.
Ten seconds left, Westbrook finally gave the ball to Angel. Angel took a deep breath and started attacking!
Rear seat! The second is light and the shoulders are slight. Love does not dare to tie it tightly on the ground, so when Anjie turns around or shoots, Love's steps will not be able to move. But he does not dare to relax too much, so Anjie's advancement will be very relaxed.
This is where Anjie's offense is difficult to defend. With his soft touch and exquisite footsteps, anyone who defends Anjie will be under great pressure.
Suddenly! An Jie continued to increase his strength and turned around. Love held the position toughly, but An Jie was squeezed and lost his center of gravity.
"No, no, no." Van Gundy stared at the two insiders on the field, looking at Anger who had lost his center of gravity, and Van Gundy's heart also fluctuated.
The moment An Jie fell, he threw the ball towards the basket. Then he rushed to the ground heavily.
Love first looked at the referee and confirmed that he had not committed a foul. Then he looked at the basketball, hoping that the orange-red orb could jump into his hands obediently.
The basketball hit the rebound first, then bounced to the front of the basket. When An Jie got up, the basketball had already landed on the ground and the 24-second offensive time was over. However, after looking at the disappointed eyes of the fans of the target center and the surprised expression of Love, An Jie knew that the ball had entered!
"Incredible goal! An Jie still scored the basketball while losing all the center of gravity! The gap between the five points, the gap between the two sides became five points, and the time was only six seconds. It was almost impossible to get five points in six seconds!" Yu Jia believed that miracles could be produced in nBa, but not today.
Lambis quickly used the last pause, fearing that the clock would go even in seconds.
After returning from the timeout, Love turned into a magical three-pointer, but he could no longer save the game.
Ten seconds ago, An Jie had already killed the game!
Although it is not a final kill, the final shot with all the center of gravity is exactly the same as the final kill effect.
Chapter completed!
