The opening three-pointer in basketball

The basketball flew up, crossed an arc, and flew into the net.

"puff!"

The crisp sound of brushing the screen sounded.

Bai Yi nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and gave an OK gesture to Durant.

Durant failed to shoot three times in a row and was intercepted twice by Bai Yi. Taking advantage of this situation, Bai Yi hit three consecutive three-pointers, widening the point difference between the two teams to ten points.

In fact, it’s only a minute and a half in total.

Bai Yi himself didn't expect that it would go so smoothly.

Brooks called timeout again.

Bai Yi and his teammates returned to the court.

Tucker stepped forward and clapped his hands and said: "Bai, the defense just now was awesome."

Others also nodded.

Adelman smiled and said, "Bai, do you have any secrets?"

"The secret is that Durant's physical fitness declined, and then I took the initiative to make changes."

Bai Yi then explained in detail the key points of defense just now.

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

Adelman continued: "They should make adjustments next. Westbrook and Harden will take over the offense. We still have to be careful."

Westbrook's zombie jumper has a very average hit rate, but if it's crazy, it can be very accurate.

Harden's shooting is much better, and Harden's threat is much greater.

After a while, the players from both teams returned to the court.

The Thunder had the ball, and Westbrook held the ball past halftime. Bai Yi thought for a moment, gave up on Adu, and ran to defend Westbrook.

He felt that Durant couldn't attack three times in a row, and the Thunder called a timeout, so he shouldn't give Durant another shot.

Sure enough, Westbrook did not pass to Durant this time, but the calm power continued. Bai Yi stepped forward and Westbrook immediately passed the ball to Harden.

Harden patted the basketball, dribbled a few times, and raised his hand for a three-pointer.

"puff!"

He actually scored a goal.

Harden usually takes a few dribbles to shoot. He needs to find a rhythm. Once he finds the rhythm, his shooting can be very accurate.

Bai Yi glanced at Harden. He was hesitant. Should he defend Harden or Westbrook?

Harden's shooting percentage is higher.

But Westbrook is a crazy person. Generally speaking, the more critical the moment, the more excited he becomes. If you let him shoot open, the danger is also great.

Bai Yi thought about it and chose to defend Westbrook.

After all, Westbrook's physical fitness is still at its peak, and Harden already looks a little out of breath.

At this time, even if Harden can score goals, his power should be limited.

Bai Yi made up his mind, and then focused on shooting three-pointers on offense, while the defense focused on Westbrook.

The time in the fourth quarter ran away so quickly.

With the ten-point lead they had just accumulated, with one minute and twenty-eight seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Timberwolves still led by six points.

At this time, it is once again the Thunder's turn to attack with the ball. If it can score, the game will still be in suspense. If it cannot score, the Thunder will basically win the game.

Bai Yi defended Westbrook as before. He provoked: "Why do you keep passing it to Harden to shoot? Why don't you shoot yourself."

"Facing me, are you afraid of being blocked?"

Westbrook rolled his eyes, his face was filled with anger, and his eyes seemed to be burning with fire.

But he still passed the ball to Harden.

"Shh!"

Amid the boos from the fans, Harden clapped the basketball in his hand.

On the Timberwolves side, the shrinking players expanded slightly. Reggie ran a few steps forward, two meters away from Harden, and kept making noises to scare Harden.

Bai Yi secretly moved towards Harden.

Harden usually takes a long time to dribble, and the total attack time is only twenty-four seconds. He often dribbles for more than ten seconds and then shoots the basketball.

Bai Yi held his breath, talking trash to Westbrook while slowly moving towards Harden.

With about five seconds left in the attack time, Harden joined the ball. At this moment, Bai Yi also moved, and he suddenly pounced from the side.

Harden reacted and tried to avoid the ball with a shocked look on his face.

But it was too late, Bai Yi slapped the basketball away.

The basketball flew up, Reggie grabbed the basketball, and then quickly made a layup.

Harden raised his hands half empty and looked at Bai Yi in disbelief.

"Dude, be careful next time."

Bai Yi nodded to Harden and then ran to celebrate with Reggie.

The DJ at the scene shouted loudly, "Beautiful steal, so beautiful. In this game, every steal by Bai is crucial. He made Durant and Harden lose their vitality."

The score difference between the two teams reached eight points, with only one minute left.

The Thunder called a timeout, and Durant forced a three-pointer, but missed. When it was his turn, Bai Yi hit a three-pointer to kill people.

The point difference between the two teams came to eleven points.

The game has officially lost its suspense.

In the end, the Timberwolves defeated the Thunder 131:122.

In this game, both teams were very aggressive offensively. Bai Yi scored 62 points, four steals, six assists, and seven rebounds.

For the Thunder, Adu scored the highest, with 36 points.

Westbrook scored 20 points and Harden scored 23 points.

The Thunder's three young men scored higher than Bai Yi.

But for the Timberwolves, Reggie, Love, and Tucker also contributed a lot of points.

This is the difference between Bai Yi and the Thunder's three young men. Although the Thunder has Harden and Westbrook, two very talented point guards.

But apart from Harden consciously connecting the team, Westbrook has no idea in this regard.

And Harden has less time to hold the ball, and he can't integrate the Thunder into a whole.

The Thunder's tactics are basically three players playing in isolation, with other role players picking up the slack.

Although Bai Yi doesn't have many assists, he moves very smartly. He will move for role players and help them attract defenses.

Bai Yi was interviewed by reporters after the game. Many reporters praised him and thought he performed well, but Bai Yi didn't say much. He listened quietly.

Although he was in front of reporters, his mind was already on to the next game.

In the game that just ended, after the Thunder's three young men completely let go, the Timberwolves were at a disadvantage for that period of time.

Adu later had physical problems.

Only then did Bai Yi complete the decisive steal and widen the point difference.

With the experience of this game, the Thunder will definitely learn from it in the next game. Then the third Shao will ignore Bai Yi and directly attack like crazy.

Even the forest wolves would be hard-pressed to resist.

Even if he uses his skills, he can't hold it back.

After all, Durant, Westbrook, and Harden should be able to score more than 80 points if they explode at full strength.

Bai Yi must be better prepared, otherwise, the next game will be difficult.

He started thinking about all aspects of the game, such as defense.

He was a little regretful. If Morris had not been injured, the Timberwolves would have been much more relaxed.

It's a pity that little Morris was still injured.

And there is a high probability that he will not be able to play in the Western Conference Finals.

He was thinking about something, and he still didn't fully come back to his senses until he returned home after the game.

He then turned on his computer and found a video of the Spurs-Thunder game. He wanted to see how the Spurs dealt with the Thunder.
