Super Heavy Artillery

At the beginning of the second half, the Warriors played a beautiful tactical coordination and scored easily. The Warriors fans must have a bright spot, and then smiled. After all, a few years ago, they could always see Warriors players defeating opponents one after another through this lineup and such tactics, and finally won the championship. In the past two years, the Warriors are still strong. But in the hearts of the fans, the warrior of that year is the real warrior. Different and invincible.

However, the Thunder played a little passively! On the defensive end, he has been running around with the Warriors' players, constantly changing defenses, unable to double-team the opponent's offensive arrow unscrupulously, and cannot limit the opponent's score. On the offensive end, although the impact is relatively small, it is still a lot more difficult than when Green was not present in the second half of the second quarter. He actively assisted in defense, which caused the Thunder to be a headache. Fortunately, Green is now playing the fifth position after all, Adams can still contain most of his defensive energy.

As the difference between the two sides began to shrink, the initiative on the court was slowly being mastered by the Warriors.

When the Warriors used their best tactics to score easily, Donovan called a timeout. In fact, he has always been cautious, since the opponent scored the first goal, he felt the need to sound a warning to his players. Moreover, the previous defensive strategy can no longer cope with the Warriors' current offensive strategy. He must rearrange the deployment.

"Don't hesitate to change defenses! As long as the opponent picks and rolls screens, change defenses immediately. Especially Stephen and Kevin, don't give them the chance to hold the ball easily, don't let them take shots, don't let them score easily..."

"Russell, we can't let Steven take a three-pointer unscrupulously. Once his hand feels warm, it's hard to limit it! You have to follow the opponent, he should be able to play off the ball, but you have to stay focused force."

"Paul, you have to play more aggressively on the offensive end to hit the basket. They may double-team you, but that is our chance to score easily. Ann, you have to be ready to shoot whenever you have a chance. Just shoot. I believe you can shoot those balls."

"Steven, protect the penalty area. We have a height advantage, and the rebound cannot be controlled by the opponent!"

...

The most troublesome thing about the Thunder is the excellent ability to switch defenses. Donovan's unlimited defense tactics are a point that is difficult for every team to play against the Thunder. Throughout the league, the Warriors and the Thunder are probably the least afraid of such a defensive team. They like to get shots through pick-and-roll screens, and the team's tactical system is full of such cooperation. Of course, other teams can do the same, but this requires the player who ends the offense to have excellent shooting ability and extremely fast shooting speed. Take Curry and Anlow as examples. Both are top three-point shooters. In the game, they can always seize the fleeting space and opportunity to throw the ball, and the hit rate is quite high.

Therefore, the speed of changing defenses and shots has become the fiercest battle between the two teams.

In the game after the timeout, the Thunder swept away the passiveness of the game in the first few minutes. They are actively running on the court, and both the offensive and defensive ends have greatly improved. Two assaultmen, Westbrook and Paul George, carried explosive packs into the penalty area guarded by Green. I have to say that the personal abilities of these two men are indeed strong. In a one-on-one situation, even Green, the best defensive player, cannot stop. As a last resort, Durant could only shrink to the basket. In this way, the defensive pressure outside the three-point line is greatly reduced. Anluo seized the opportunity and made several three-pointers, quickly reopening the difference.

Of course, this is inseparable from the Thunder's efforts on the defensive end. They implemented the defense tactics very well, and each player maintained a high degree of concentration on the game. Even Adams, who guarded the basket, was involved in the change of defense. As long as the Warriors take a screen, the switcher will immediately reach the best defensive position, very timely. The Warriors' offense is subject to some restrictions. Their tactics must be active on the court, but under the defense of the Thunder, they are very passive.

However, this time Durant stood up. This is why the Warriors introduced Durant. When their tactics can't play an advantage and the game is in a difficult situation, a person needs to use his personal ability to help the team get out of the difficult situation. In terms of the ability to fight tough battles, in the Warriors lineup, Durant is definitely ahead of other players by a large margin. His physical condition coupled with his excellent shooting ability allows him to play the wrong position regardless of the player in that position.

In this way, the two sides reached the fourth quarter.

Throughout the third quarter, the two sides hit 38:35, and the Warriors who played away from UUKANshu.com took a weak lead at this stage. But for the whole game, they are still at a disadvantage.

I have to say that the dominance of the death lineup they were proud of has really dropped a lot. There are many reasons for this fact. The progress of other teams is of course the main one, but there are also many internal problems. Green's loss on the offensive end, Iguodala's old age...

Durant scored 22 points in this quarter. Basically in the second half, the entire Warriors' offensive power was concentrated on him. Durant did not live up to Cole's trust in him. Under his play, the Warriors stabilized the situation of the game and recovered the points a little bit. In fact, as long as Durant is the core, he is still the **** of death.

Compared to Durant's big deal, the Thunder can be said to be a soldier. Anlow 10 points, Paul George 8 points, Westbrook 6 points, Adams 5 points, Grant 3 points, and Ferguson, who came off the bench, made a three-pointer and scored 3 points.

The current score on the court is 91:99. The Warriors are still behind, but have caught up to single digits.

The current situation can be said to be confusing. The Thunder, which had always had the upper hand, was restrained by the opponent in the third quarter with a strong momentum in the first half. However, the Warriors did not completely rebound. They presented their most powerful death lineup, but under the active response of the Thunder, they did not achieve that invincible effect.

The last quarter is the moment of decisive battle. For fans on both sides, the Thunder and the Warriors' game played to the last minute is the most normal performance. After all, in recent seasons, the Thunder and the Warriors have been evenly matched. It can never be an easy task to decide the outcome.
