Chapter 390 So Beautiful
Durant exploded, but the real surprise was the Thunder's role players.
Mitch McGarry played with confidence, and when the main players were resting, the Thunder evened the score.
But after Xiang Chu returned to the court, he immediately attracted most of the opponent's defensive attention, and Knight also took the opportunity to hit a three-pointer.
Xiang Chu changed the situation as soon as he went up, and the Thunder quickly replaced Durant.
It's just that the situation has changed from the previous three quarters. Xiang Chu is still calling for the wind and rain in the interior, but Durant is inaccurate. He fought too hard in the front, and Durant was still affected.
After Durant came up, Waiters was still persistent in singles. Unfortunately, his shooting percentage was extremely low. Xiang Chu was able to have time to rest. In fact, he should thank these buddies who are full of confidence in shooting.
Thunder coach Brooks quickly replaced Waiters, and the team entered the final decisive battle posture, and all the balls were handed over to Durant and Westbrook.
They didn't play Perkins again at this time, but let Ibaka defend Xiang Chu.
Ibaka has fouled five times, and the Thunder are also fighting.
But all fighting spirit needs to be expressed with specific scores. After Durant hit the iron twice in a row, the situation of the Thunder is very delicate.
There was a problem at a critical moment, and the Nuggets took the lead. Time dwindled and their pressure gradually increased.
The Thunder have two All-Stars. At this time, they can't put all their treasures on Durant, and Westbrook starts to attack.
Westbrook hit the first jumper, but was immediately grabbed by Xiang Chu and hit the offensive rebound.
"There are only 2 minutes left, and the Thunder are 5 points behind. There is still hope...Durant made a three-pointer, but unfortunately he missed it."
"Galinari's defense is in place. Compared with Durant, he is now more physically active."
"Durant shot again! Still missed... The Nuggets launched a quick counterattack and Robertson fouled."
"Fared hit one of two free throws, but it didn't matter, the Nuggets extended their lead by another point."
"Oh, Durant missed another shot. Was his shot suddenly stolen?"
"The Thunder chose foul tactics. It was Xiang Chu who went to the free throw line. Xiang Chu had already scored 48 points. If he made free throws...Xiang Chu made two free throws, and he scored 50 points again."
"In the scoring battle between Xiang Chu and Durant, Xiang Chu is even better. Last season, Durant beat Xiang Chu to win the scoring title. This season, Xiang Chu may be sure to win."
"It was a wonderful game. The Nuggets won the final victory at home. Durant scored 42 points and Xiang Chu scored 50 points, 18 rebounds and 4 blocks. He is a well-deserved king."
The audience at the Pepsi Center chanted MVP, no matter who watched the game, it was hearty.
It's really exciting, the collision of stars, and the powerful attack power conquered the fans.
After the game, it was time for pretense again. After taking a shower, Xiang Chu combed his hair meticulously, and said with a smile: "I really didn't think so much on the court. I don't care about 50 points. I just want to help the team win the victory." .”
"I also hope that the Thunder's record can quickly enter the top eight in the Western Conference. I like to compete, so that I can use my full combat effectiveness. Durant is a very good player, but he still needs to practice. He may be a bit thin and unable to support High confrontation in the audience."
The person who won the game was right in everything he said, but it would be difficult for Xiang Chu to be efficient throughout the game if he hadn't cheated.
Thunder's situation is still difficult, but this is not a problem that Xiang Chu should pay attention to.
Going away for the second back-to-back game is a bit annoying.
Fortunately, the All-Star Weekend is about to start, and the team can also adjust for a few days.
The Nuggets went to Los Angeles the next day to play against the Lakers, the Lakers without Kobe.
Three of their offensive teams are now on the bench. Maybe this is also convenient for the team to perform badly, and the coach has a lot of room to maneuver.
Why do you say that the Lakers are bad, because they don't even have any rookies that can be trained.
Of course, they mainly let rookies play, just by the way to see if they can harvest one or two talents, unlike some teams that already have key training targets.
Back-to-back or not, it would be embarrassing to lose to a team like this.
Jeremy Lin was also quite depressed. He came to Los Angeles with the highest salary since entering the league, but his playing time hit a new low.
In the last game before the All-Star weekend, Dunleavy has also returned. The most tense time for the Nuggets has passed, and they are now only short of the fourth position.
At the beginning of the game, the Lakers entered the state faster than expected. Their three-pointers were good, and the basic salary player Wayne Ellington broke out with a strong combat effectiveness.
Fournier's personal defense, the Nuggets have not expected much, but fortunately his team execution is not bad.
When the Lakers took the lead, Xiang Chu was tyrannizing the opponent's inside line.
The tonnage of Thackeray is not bad, but the technology is so bad that Xiang Chu has no sense of accomplishment.
Middleton performed very well on the outside, and the Lakers' sophomore Kelly couldn't restrain him at all.
Relying on the feel of the outside line, the Lakers barely held on in the first quarter.
But after entering the rotation, Williams directly blew up the Lakers' defense.
The Lakers' offense off the bench is not too bad, and their defense can be said to be hard to describe, especially the team defense, which makes people suspect that they don't have a defensive coach at all.
With Williams killing all sides, the Nuggets also took the lead steadily.
Wayne Alling also withered in the second quarter. To put it bluntly, this kind of role player can only explode when the defensive attention is not focused on him, which is too far from a real star player.
I just played against the Thunder before, and I have seen Durant's big killer. Now the Lakers' offense is too childish.
Before the intermission, Fournier also hit a three-pointer, and the Nuggets' lead came to double digits.
In the first quarter, the Nuggets were still a little worried about encountering a role player breaking out and disrupting the progress of the game. Later, they found that they still thought too much. The Lakers don't have any fighting spirit at all.
In the third quarter, the performance of the Lakers was still relatively flat. Anyway, the main players did not perform well in all aspects, and the players who performed well on the bench did not have much playing time.
Lakers head coach Byron Scott's operation made the fans feel like I can do it.
The Lakers played poorly, of course the Nuggets don't mind, they are tired after flying to Los Angeles, okay, they are very willing to win the game with ease, and they are even willing to treat guests to dinner after the game.
Just kidding, but the fourth quarter is basically garbage time already.
Several key players of the Nuggets got more rest time, and their rotation lineup also played very well, the comeback Dunleavy also hit a three-pointer, everything felt so good.
