The Warriors were led by their opponents at halftime to 24 points, and they really couldn't play this game.

Li Liang used his own strength to lead the Thunder to gain an advantage and withstood the Warriors' "Kicking Egg" attack.

Then Durant and Westbrook spent three minutes to get hurt and shock the Warriors.

At the end of the second quarter, the Warriors players themselves felt unbelievable. Why did they get beaten like this in such a short time?

In the entire regular season, the Warriors have never been beaten like this, and they basically have no power to fight back.

This has a huge blow to the team's confidence.

During the break, Cole spent most of his saliva on boosting the team's morale and convinced the players that "the game is not over yet."

The game is indeed not over, and there is still a whole second half.

The gap of 24 points was that in the 2008 finals, the Celtics were 24 points behind at halftime and finally turned around.

24 points are the death line in the playoffs. In the history of the NBA, if the score difference is widened to 25 points, there will be no precedent for a comeback.

The Celtics rely on steel-like defense. If the Warriors cannot regain their defense in the second half and curb the Thunder's violent attack, their outcome will be even worse than that of the Lakers in 2008.

But how can we limit it?

Cole couldn't think of a solution.

There is no way to limit the three-headed monster.

For a high-quality defensive system, it is almost the limit to grab two giant players who hold the ball.

It is theoretically feasible to assign two defenders to each superstar.

When this number increases to 3, in theory, six people need to be assigned to prevent it, that won’t work.

Unless you count the referee, if you really have a referee, the referee can defend against the Big Five.

Unfortunately, the referee was not on the side of the Warriors tonight, and Kennedy even leaned towards the Thunder in the first half.

The Oracle Arena is full of an ominous atmosphere.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Warriors cheered up all their energy.

Curry got out of Westbrook's defense without the ball as soon as he came up - Westbrook slipped himself while chasing someone.

Curry received the ball, and made a shot from the open space outside the three-point line on the right.

In the absence of space, Curry's three-pointer was still very reliable.

This quick three-pointer gave Warriors fans a little hope.

But the key is still to look at defense.

But in the defense, Curry had a loophole.

Li Liang blocked Curry with a pick-and-roll at the high position, causing Westbrook to easily cut in, and then passed the ball to Robertson who was inserted on the wing.

Robertson easily made a layup and scored two points.

Immediately afterwards, Thompson received the ball from the outside and Bogut played a pick-and-roll screen. Bogut went down and Thompson passed the ball in.

As a result, the ball was obviously passed too much and flew directly out of the baseline, making a mistake.

This ball has a big blow to the Warriors' morale, but the Thunder made a mistake immediately.

Li Liang's difficult attack on the ground was hit by Green's crotch, and rebounded and was cut off by the Warriors.

It can be seen that Li Liang wanted to pass the ball through the crotch, but unfortunately Green saw it through.

With one clip, he blocked the ball and successfully intercepted the ball.

The price was that my balls were smashed and he jumped to the frontcourt.

Thompson immediately rushed to the basket in a counterattack, and then made two points after a jump and a fake move.

But when he came back, Li Liang once again chose a high position to support a difficult pass.

This time he made no mistakes and directly stuffed it into Durant's hand at the basket in the three-second zone.

Durant received the ball and turned around and picked up the basket lightly, hitting two points.

A good pass can make scoring extremely easy.

At the same time, the lead of the big score allowed Li Liang to easily pass the ball.

The Thunder players began to relax.

But this kind of relaxation is not slackness, but more bold in dealing with the ball.

The score is approaching, but I dare not pass it, but I dare to take action when the score is approaching, but I dare to do difficult moves when the score is approaching.

This makes Thunder's offense more flexible and natural, especially Li Liang's good lead.

Klay Thompson immediately hit another three-pointer on the offense.

Li Liang was at the 45-degree outside line on the left, facing the Warriors' attack and defense, holding the ball and taking two steps back, making a three-pointer from a long distance, and also hit!

anser-ball offset Thompson's three-pointer.

This kind of ball hit the Warriors quite a big blow.

The Warriors can attack smoothly, but if their defense does not come up, the 24-point gap cannot be slimmed.

After five minutes in the second half, the Warriors' offense was very good, but when they looked at the score, they were still 24 points behind.

In five minutes, they didn't shrink by 1 point.

Under the leadership of Li Liang, Westbrook also began to make some incredible passes, which made his teammates not even noticed him passing the ball.

Cole saw the two sides fighting against each other, and the pace was getting faster and faster. This was not what he wanted.

Cole called a timeout, hoping that the team's defensive strength could be improved, and they could strangle the Thunder's offense and put them in stagnation.

After the timeout, the Warriors took a small lineup and five small players made their debut.

Cole is going to fight for his life.

In the first two games of the series, the Warriors spent very little time using five small games, and most of the time there was a center in the interior.

Because once you use the five small, Thunder will use the double tower.

Adding a Li Liang to the double towers is really unbearable in defense.

But now there is no way, we must take a try and use the high-speed rotation and compression of five small small to create miracles.

As a result, the Thunder did not use the double towers to deal with it, and Donovan actually used a small lineup to deal with Cole.

Li Liang was mentioned as the center again, and with Witters, Robertson, Durant and Westbrook, he felt like he was back to the Pacers.

After the timeout, the Warriors were defended for 24 seconds.

The Thunder's expanded defense line caused the Warriors' outside rotation to be poor. In the end, when Thompson made a hasty move, there was no time left.

The Thunder fifth juniors basically haven't appeared much in the regular season because there is no need.

However, Li Liang is really good at playing center.

He received Westbrook's pass from high to support him, pretending to pass to Waiters, who was running at the bottom line, but he returned to Durant on the wing and then went up to cover.

Durant held the ball in his left hand and made a very relaxed dunk.

The basket was pulled empty, and a simple breakthrough helped the Thunder score.

Then, Li Liang made a defense in the outside round by dislocation, forcing Iguodala to one-on-one defense into a desperate situation, and finally had to force three-pointers to take.

As a result, Li Liang rewarded Iguodala with a big hat, and then counterattacked with another long pass.

One shot into the soul!

Magic Johnson passed the ball like a long distance, flew against the floor, and gave it to Durant.

After Durant received the ball, he made another relaxed dunk with both hands.

The difference in scores was 30 points.

The Warriors serve quickly in the backcourt and want to rush for one.

Green caught the ball at the three-point line and rushed to the basket.

Li Liang let out a position and let him in. Green made a layup. He held it from the side, took off, and slightly pointed it out. Green's layup dropped.

Not only did he cover it, he also took a handful of it, took the ball back, and controlled the ball rights.

Li Liang is better than Ibaka in this regard.

Ibaka often has some shocking hats, but when the hat is out, the ball rights are still the opponent.

Li Liang doesn't have that kind of volleyball hat, but he can control the ball and form a counterattack.

This time Li Liang did not pass the ball, and he dribbled through the half-time quickly. Iguodala held Li Liang tightly. Li Liang fought from the left to the bottom line, stabilized and turned around, feeling like he was about to stop and play the position.

Then suddenly, he turned his back, walked to the bottom line, threw away Iguodala, and rushed into the basket. Who was under the basket?

Only Curry.

Li Liang burst into the edge of the three-second zone, and he dunked through Curry with one hand!

The Oracle Arena was beaten silently by the Thunder Five, which made it feel like it was beaten out of the whole season.

The score difference has reached a desperate 30 points, and everyone knows that the game is over.
Chapter completed!
