At the end of the first quarter, thunder was 11 points behind.
For thunder, this is undoubtedly a very unfavorable situation. On the other hand, thunder is lucky.
At the very least, they still have three full quarters to narrow the gap. It doesn''t seem that scary to spread the 11 point gap into three quarters.
Durant thought the same way. When he was beaten black and blue by link in the first quarter, he also expected to make a comeback in the next three quarters.
He told himself that it was not over and that he had a chance to redefine the game.
Plenty of time can always make people have all kinds of fantasies.
My next exam will be better. My next date will not be a mess. I will definitely work harder tomorrow.
However, when the time from abundant to tense, the situation often becomes: only one day before the exam, I am still preparing. I can''t find a clean pair of pants when I''m only an hour away from my date.
Durant is now facing such a dilemma, when the game played to the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, thunder was still 12 points behind, Durant''s heart all the good illusions were disillusioned.
At this time, he can no longer give himself too much comfort, he can no longer put hope in the next section.
If Oklahoma City had equalised today, they would have done it. Since the first three quarters are not able to do, then how to expect thunder in the last five minutes to turn the tide?
Nervous time, the easiest to disillusionment.
"Kevin, Kevin!"
Scott Brooks two shouts, Durant back to the hot FedEx stadium.
Before Durant''s eyes, there was a frowning coach. Next to him were the gasping teammates.
Thunder today was played very embarrassed, this season and the Grizzlies, thunder has never been so embarrassed.
Their attack in the grizzly bear''s discipline defense has become fragmented, Durant can only fall into the situation of fighting alone.
What about the Grizzlies'' attack? Under the leadership of link, he played a multi-point flowering competition.
When thunder found that Durant could not contain link in one-on-one today, Brooks began to arrange the package and assist defense.
So the rest of the Grizzlies got and took the opportunity.
Link in the game before the end of five minutes now, has already blasted down 27 points 11 assists of double data, in the middle of only one error.
This is enough to show how smooth the Grizzlies attack today, basketball game data is the most intuitive body on the scene of the situation.
What about Durant? He had 29 points, but his shooting rate was just over 40%. And he didn''t drive anyone on the offensive side except himself.
In the last three games, Durant''s performance has been exaggerated. He took out James'' heat and Paul''s clippers, but Durant''s momentum came to a halt in front of link''s Grizzlies.
This is originally Durant revenge link game, has completely changed. Thunder did not complete revenge, but also proved that Grizzlies are the only team in the league.
"Kevin
Scott Brooks called out again, and Durant was able to let go of his confused thoughts.
He nodded to his coach to show that he was listening.
"I know it''s tough, but it''s not the end of the world! We can''t take the lead to give up, and then we''ll look for more opportunities outside the three-point line! Kevin, calm down, we still have time! "
Brooks is also reluctant to give up the game, although it''s hard to catch up with the Grizzlies in the rankings. But in the face of the Western Conference finals imaginary enemy, Brooks naturally wants to push the limit of the team out.
Now if you lose easily to the Grizzlies, can you guarantee that you can win by meeting them in the playoffs?
Durant nodded in silence, and an electronic beep interrupted his conversation with Scott Brooks.
Durant knows all the reasons, but the basketball court is not a reasonable place.
Durant knew that he could not easily admit defeat, but after the whole game, he was overwhelmed by link.
Link''s performance today made Durant very frustrated. He was not sure whether he could turn the tide back.
A player is not afraid that others will doubt him, but he is afraid to doubt himself.
Game restart, grizzlies side in addition to the black and white bears temporarily off the court rest, three outside lines are still all starting.
On the thunder side, Brooks replaced today''s underperforming Perkins with first grade center Steven Adams.
Link almost didn''t recognize Adams when he first saw him on the court today.
I can''t believe that this white interior with short hair will be so wild in the future.
Link took the lead to look at Durant, but Durant avoided his own eyes.
Link knew at that time that the game was likely to be stable! Durant, he''s scared!The final five minutes, no, maybe it won''t be five minutes before the game is over, it depends on whether the thunder can last.
Westbrook is no longer hot this time. He knows his task is to deliver ammunition to Durant outside the three-point line.
Thunder team''s first attack, tactical play is very successful. Westbrook takes the cover to break through, Durant is waiting for the opportunity to ambush to the right bottom corner to catch the ball and shoot.
Thunder''s tactics are carried out, but Durant''s shot, but Brooks was disappointed.
When Durant shot, his mind was full of messy things and he didn''t focus at all.
He was wondering why link had become so tough today and why he had struggled so long to get close to the score, but he didn''t want to throw the ball in.
As a result, Durant''s three-point shot hit the side of the basket under the interference of link!
At that moment, Brooks covered his forehead, he knew that the game had been difficult to hope for.
Brooks can see that link has destroyed Durant psychologically today!
"Kevin''s key shot still missed, today his efficiency is unexpected low! Grizzlies fight back. Link runs through the line with the ball! He hit the frame from the side, with a pull rod action to avoid Stephen Adams''s blocking, easy goal! Pretty, Adams probably didn''t know how link dodged the defense. The difference is 14 points. The thunder team must do something
Link has 29 points and 11 assists, and Durant is now behind link in his proud personal scoring.
A sense of frustration invaded Durant''s whole body, and this sense of frustration, in addition to making Durant''s shooting more and more inaccurate, played no role.
After 18 seconds, Durant''s frustration made him miss his second three-point shot in a row.
This time, Westbrook was rarely seen as a real point guard. After directing his teammates to run, he found Durant with a superb pass in the March.
But Durant wasted this great opportunity, which was the last chance for thunder.
Durant''s second shot formed a long rebound, which means that as long as you seize the opportunity, you can easily play a counterattack.
Conley caught the rebound and quickly pushed from the middle, while igordala and link started to follow up.
Finally, the ball gently to the right, and link tacitly completed the air cooperation.
Link had 31 points and 11 assists, even though Durant had missed two consecutive shots, even though the gap between the thunder and the Grizzlies was just like from Boston to Los Angeles.
But link still did not stop, he tirelessly destroyed Durant''s nerves. He wants to make the last game of the regular season deeply rooted in Durant''s heart!
Thunder did win the Grizzlies twice, and both sides were really anxious in the last game. It seems that the biggest trouble for the Grizzlies this season is thunder.
But after today, link will make people believe that thunder is not the only killer of the Grizzlies.
A minute later, when Durant missed the three-point jump shot for the third time in a row, the game also announced the garbage time ahead of time.
When Durant was replaced, his score was set at 29 points, shooting only 38%.
And link with 31 points, 12 assists, 8 rebounds data, proud to go back to the bench.
ESPN gave link and Durant a split screen shot, and their opposite emotions were all written on their faces.
"Today, link completely destroyed Durant, and KD missed three three points in a row. He had a chance to change everything, but he didn''t take it. Link, on the other hand, has shown his excellent offensive state since the first round of the game. Even just in the lead of more than 10 points, also did not relax. Maybe Durant and thunder fans don''t want to admit it, but I have to say it. Today, the game was not at all anxious. This time, link wins KD
Herbie Brown''s commentary made countless thunder fans turn off their TV sets in anger.
It''s just pity Durant. He can''t turn off the TV. He also had to endure the second reading at the Federal Express stadium.
After the electronic beep, the score was set at 114-102. Thunder team with the unremitting efforts of garbage time, let the difference become less ugly.
Durant, who shot less than 40 percent, stood up and tried to get out of the court.
But as soon as he got up, he was welcomed by "enthusiastic" link and held his right hand.
"You''re playing well today, but you''re a bit out of luck, man." Link grinned. He knew Durant wanted to leave, so he wouldn''t let him!
Durant, in front of so many reporters, is not good to leave. In the face of the initiative to make friends with link, we have to embrace him.
"Durant''s friendly embrace with link after the game, did they solve the enmity?"
Herbie Brown didn''t know the conversation between the two after they hugged. Otherwise, he would not have thought it was a "friendly" hug.When Durant and link hugged, link put his mouth to Durant''s ear and said something softly.
After the hug, Durant left with his head down. Link stayed where he was and was interviewed by reporters.
As soon as Durant walked into the player''s aisle, he angrily kicked over the garbage can beside him.
"As you wish, this last regular season match will be unforgettable. Now we''re even again, Kevin
What link had just said in Durant''s ear would have been in Durant''s mind for days.
