Chapter 101 Star Whistle

Durant scored again. If you count the first goal in the second quarter, then so far in the second quarter, Durant leads Anxi 5:4.

So in the frontcourt, Anxi started singles again.

But obviously, after Anxi's consecutive singles goals, the Thunder did not want to see the score remain so anxious. After Anxi got the ball again, the Thunder's defense was ready to double-team Anxi.

For this ball, Anxi insisted on playing alone, even though he knew that the Thunder was going to double-team him.

Accelerating a breakthrough and reaching the mid-range, Perry Jones immediately moved over, raising his long arms.

The Thunder chose to double-team Anxi, and at this time, the 76ers immediately sent Anxi a pick-and-roll screen. Cole Aldridge blocked Durant. Anxi accelerated and changed direction, shook Perry Jones away, and then... directly A pull-up fadeaway jumper.

Whoosh, the basketball bounced into the basket and in again!

However, next, the 1-on-1 duel between Anxi and Durant ended. The Thunder chose to double-team Anxi on the defensive end. Turning around, the offensive end Reggie Jackson directly caught Shaun Livingston's defensive mistake. , broke into the inside line and succeeded in a layup.

Reggie Jackson's score interrupted the duel between Anxi and Durant, which also meant that the rare one-on-one duel in the NBA was over, and there was a sigh of relief on the sidelines.

Then, the 76ers began to take advantage of their small lineup on the field, defend resolutely, and counterattack quickly. However, because the Thunder also had a smaller lineup on the field, the 76ers' counterattacks and fast breaks were generally ineffective.

However, after the 76ers switched to a smaller lineup, they did a good job defensively. They quickly rotated defense on the outside and continuously defended against the Thunder's rapid offense.

Halfway through the second quarter, the Thunder also made a substitution, bringing back Westbrook, allowing Westbrook and Reggie Jackson to form a two-point guard combination on the outside, and took Durant off the court to rest.

The 76ers did not make any substitutions. They continued to play with a small lineup and continued to play fast offense and fast defense tactics.

The second quarter ended quickly. After Anxi scored 14 points in the first quarter, he scored 12 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, with a total of 26 points in the two quarters. He was in a hot state.

After halftime, thanks to Anxi's outstanding performance, the 76ers actually tied with the Thunder at 58:58 in the away game. The score was still very anxious.

The 76ers saw the hope of winning. For the 76ers, Anxi's hot touch was a point they could make more use of. Anxi scored consecutively, scoring 26 points in the first half, which was almost half of the 76ers' total score. , the Thunder, which lacks outside defensive players, is obviously difficult to deal with Anxi's continuous singles scoring.

Therefore, after taking this into consideration, Brett Brown chose to let Anxi continue to play. He really wanted to fight for this victory. After all, before this, the 76ers were in unstable form and would always win one game, lose one or even two games. This game was regarded by Brett Brown as an opportunity. If they win, the 76ers' running-in problem will no longer exist. That's the problem. A victory against a strong enemy will bring a lot of changes.

In the second half, Anxi continued to play.

Anxi continued to make sudden shots, scoring 8 points in half a quarter, and continued to lead the 76ers to defeat the Thunder. The score went from 58 to 73. The anxious game made everyone excited.

In the Thunder's offense, Westbrook attacks with the ball and attacks the basket.

Anxi moved a step laterally and made up the defense!

With a bang, the two collided, Anxi fell to the ground, and Westbrook then threw the basketball to the basket.

There was a beep and the referee whistle sounded.

"Is this? An offensive foul?" Reggie Miller said with some doubts. On the other side, Steve Kerr gave a completely different answer: "The referee called Anxi a defensive foul."

"Defensive foul?" Reggie Miller was a little surprised. On the court, Anxi also spread his hands and expressed doubts.

Because of this ball, Anxi found a position in advance to block Westbrook. Logically speaking, it should not be a defensive foul, or even a foul.

Soon, a replay appeared on the big screen. The replay showed that Anxi stood in the penalty area one step early.

Immediately after Westbrook rushed over, Reggie Miller made a conclusion: "This is a foul that can be called or not. Anxi stood up a little late, so there is nothing to say if the referee calls it."

Steve Kerr on the side also nodded: "If you look at it in slow motion, Anxi's defense has no problem, but as Reggie said, this foul can also be called, because Anxi just stood in the penalty area, and Wes Turbrook is here.”

There is nothing you can do about a foul that may or may not be called. The referee has already called the foul, and Anxi can only admit it.

Westbrook stepped to the free throw line and began executing free throws.

The first free throw was easily hit, and then the second one was too hard and went out of the basket. Pau Gasol immediately took off the backboard and threw the basketball to Anxi.

Anxi advanced quickly with the ball and instantly launched a counterattack fast break. A 2-on-2 was formed in the frontcourt. Anxi and McAwee executed the fast break. Only Reggie Jackson and Durant of the Thunder retreated in time.

Anxi quickly broke into the frontcourt, looked at both sides, and found no opportunity to pass the ball, so he quickly accelerated and went to the basket against Durant's defense.

Then, a three-step layup, holding the ball in his right hand against Durant.

Durant wouldn't budge.

With a bang, Anxi collided directly with Durant, and the basketball missed the basket.

"beep!"

The referee's whistle sounded in time, but when Anxi stood up on the floor and looked back at the referee, the referee signaled that this was an offensive foul.

"Offensive foul? Are-u-kidding-me? (Are you kidding?)" Anxi walked towards the referee.

He got fouled on both offense and defense, and he was really helpless now.

At this time, in the commentary box, Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr's explanation for this foul was different from the previous goal.

"Anxi got his second foul in this quarter, and it was also his fourth foul in the game. For this foul, the referee called Anxi an offensive foul, and looking at the slow motion, Kevin Durant has been Movement, so obviously it was a blocking foul."

"If the last defensive foul could be called or not, then this foul is obviously the referee's mistake."

Anxi argued with the referee for a while and made two consecutive misjudgments. If he hadn't argued, the referee would have blown the whistle again.

Anxi also knows the reputation of the Thunder's double whistle. After all, he is also a veteran who has played against the Thunder in the Western Conference for two years.

After arguing for a while, Anxi turned back to defend.

Then, Anxi played a few rounds steadily, and Anxi continued to lead the team behind the Thunder.

In the ninth minute of the third quarter, during the Thunder's offense, Westbrook held the ball from the outside for a while and then handed the ball to Durant.

Durant held the ball against Anxi in isolation, accelerated his breakthrough, and rushed to the three-point line. Then, against Anxi, he leaned forward and made a wide loop with the ball.

beep!

The referee's whistle hesitated for a while and finally blew.

After the whistle was blown, the referee pointed to Anxi. This was a foul by Anxi's thug.

Anxi was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, recalled the ball, and thought about it carefully, it seemed that the ball was really a foul, because Durant used his unique trick, a huge swing...

"Anxi fouled again. He may have to leave the field now because this is his fifth foul."

"In the third quarter, Anxi fell into a foul crisis. Although there were also misjudgments by the referee, the penalty that had been made cannot be changed. Anxi had already received his fifth foul, and this time he had to leave the field early. ”

Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr shook their heads. The referee's misjudgment and late whistle had almost ruined what should have been an exciting game. Now, Anxi has to leave the game. The 76ers are without Anxi. It is foreseeable that What's more, the Thunder will play a wave of offense and directly seal the victory of the game.

In the Tencent Sports live broadcast room, Ke Fan and Su Qun were more straightforward.

"Anxi received three fouls in this quarter. The first foul can be called or not, and there is nothing to say if it is called; the second foul is a complete misjudgment. It is obvious that the ball was a blocking foul by Durant; And this third foul is indeed a foul, but in fact fans all know that the third foul is Durant's star whistle showing his power, arm swinging loop, this is Durant's famous stunt..."

What Ke Fan said was a bit weird. Su Qun also knew that some Durant fans in China would be dissatisfied, so he immediately concluded: "In the final analysis, to put it bluntly, Durant and Westbrook have star whistles, but Anxi does not."
