Build a Dream Dynasty

As soon as the second half opened, the Thunder relied on their strong offensive power to give the Nets a wave of 12:3 attacks at the beginning, leading the score.

Holiday played a vital role in this wave of offense. First, he used the shooting opportunity created by Dewey's pick-and-roll to make an outside shot, and then cut off Curry's back pass, and then launched a fast break. Helped Durant dunk, and finally Curry forced a layup in singles. After coming to the Thunder, although Holiday did not play the role of Harden, he is indeed more suitable for Westbrook than Harden. Somewhat different from Durant, this is why Brooks directly promoted him to the main force, which is a treatment that Harden did not enjoy.

However, just because Holiday is more suitable for Durant and Westbrook than Harden does not mean that he is suitable for his current position. In fact, most of the time he does not have the ball in his hands. Holiday's personal offensive characteristics have room for the Thunder to play. Not much, his three-pointers are also quite nerve-wracking overall, not a qualified shooter. Even in Jiang Mingliang's view, if the Thunder introduce a 3D player, they don't need to be as good as Thompson, even if it's just Danny Green, the team will be more balanced. And now Holiday is more like a defender specially prepared for Curry. Although the usefulness is not so obvious, it is like the Nets reluctantly found Thunderbolt Jackson to deal with Westbrook, but it still made Westbrook kill him. All the same.

Although the Thunder's wave was terrifying, but fortunately, the Nets themselves are also a team that is good at offense. Lopez first succeeded in low-post singles against Perkins, and then Leonard missed a mid-range shot. He grabbed the offensive rebound and made a dunk, reducing the point difference to 2 points. Subsequently, the two sides fell into a tug of war. The Thunder rely on the superstar's personal ability to ensure their offensive efficiency and hold on to a weak lead. However, in terms of resource consumption, the Nets are more comfortable in scheduling. Chasing Dream Green replaced West, Reggie Jackson replaced Fernandez, Barnes replaced Leonard, the Nets can still compete with the Thunder, but as long as the Thunder bench can do it in this confrontation The only adjustments that can be made are Jeremy Lin replacing Holiday, or Simmons replacing Ibaka and letting Durant go inside. No adjustments can be made at all in other positions.

Collison, a veteran insider substitute who can be used in the regular season, Brooks dare not let him appear in the face of opponents like the Nets. However, how Perkins, Ibaka, and Durant, who can slightly top the inside line, survive the entire game is a problem for Brooks.

At this time, Presti, the general manager of the Thunder, is even more grateful that he withdrew from the three-way deal with the Nets and the Warriors at the beginning of the season. Uglier.

With 2 minutes left in the third quarter, the Thunder still led by 2 points. Then Stevens dispatched troops to replace Curry with Ray Allen and Lopez with Baynes. There is no way, although these two players can be at least four main players of the Thunder team, but both of them have some glass attributes after all, even if they want to use it hard, they have to use a little strength.

After the two players left the court, Brooks immediately removed Perkins, Ibaka and Durant, and replaced Simmons, Collison and Perry Jones. Westbrook continued to stay on the court with a substitute.

After the adjustment of the lineup, the Nets immediately took the lead in the score. They have only rested for less than three minutes since the start of the game, and they have just experienced a high-intensity tug-of-war. If Westbrook can still drag this If the bench lineup is played, then it is not Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it is directly Superman!

With Green, a passer with excellent coping ability, Baynes' pick-and-roll is also quite solid. Ray Allen ran out of open space for two consecutive rounds, raised his hand and hit a three-pointer, leading the Nets to the end of the third quarter. Overtake the score by 4 points.

Against the Heat, Ray Allen got a lot of playing time, but facing the Thunder, for the purpose of defending Westbrook, Reggie Jackson is bound to come to the second position to spend some time, and Ray Allen's playing time will inevitably decrease , but it does not mean that his role will be reduced. When it comes to the critical moment, Stevens still trusts the veteran most.

At the end of the third quarter, Westbrook was a little out of control. Brooks had no choice but to make adjustments to the lineup and replace Westbrook. The intention of bringing Holiday and Ibaka on the court is obvious. Seize the time when Curry is not on the court to let Westbrook and Durant rest as much as possible, and at least buy them more than three minutes of rest. The premise is that the score difference is drawn to more than ten points!

Stevens also made personnel adjustments. Yi Jianlian, Fernandez, and Hill came on the stage, replacing Green, Barnes, and Baynes. The lineup of the Nets became Jackson, Ray Allen, and Fernandez. , Hill, Yi Jianlian, this is an offensive lineup.

Hill dribbled the ball for halftime instead of Jackson, and sent a pass while walking in the courtyard. Fernandez took the ball with his back and turned around and passed Simmons with lightning speed. Facing Collison's defense, he easily caused The opponent fouled. In this game, Fernandez's playing time was also reduced because of allocating some time to Reggie Jackson. Therefore, even in the fourth quarter, the Spaniard is still full of vitality.

Then on the defensive end, the pick-and-roll between Holiday and Collison had no effect. Fernandez and Hill tacitly let go of Collison, who was slightly more threatening than zero. The line was blocked together, Holiday made a mistake in passing the ball back, and was successfully intercepted by Ray Allen.

Compared with the Heat, the Thunder's lineup is more extreme, and they rely more on star players. This makes them restrain the Nets in the lineup, but the role players' handling of details will make them hand over this Part of the advantage. Against the Nets and the Heat, Miller, Cole, Anderson, Haslem and even Jones can all appear on the bench, but the Thunder's Collison and Perry Jones really have no effect , if Harden is still there, maybe he can use his personal ability to activate it. However, the Thunder let go of the best sixth man and the strongest fourth-team player in history. Only they can make a big mistake. knew.

The fourth quarter lasted only 150 seconds, half a minute short of the time Brooks imagined. With Fernand hitting a 3-pointer, the point difference has been widened to 11 points. In this case, Brooks had to call a timeout in advance , Replaced Collison with Durant to launch a counterattack.

"Durant has been forced out by us, continue to hold on, we can do it!" Schneider loudly encouraged the players. An unknown thing is that some teams have contacted Schneider and invited him to be the head coach of the team. Maybe after the finals, he will leave the team. A championship!
