Chapter 254 Zhou Yang Cleans Up One by One
Brooks can only replace the main force, and must pull back the point difference in the first half.
At the same time, the Thunder team finally let go of their face and began to double-team Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang had expected this step a long time ago, just in time, he could rest for a while, and then let his teammates play their best.
The other players of the Warriors played 4 against 3, playing well and beautifully.
Curry and Turkoglu shot indiscriminately, Chandler protected the frame inside, and the Warriors' offense was still fierce.
However, the Thunder's offense has also improved, because Durant has learned to be smart, and he used the cover of his teammates to directly attack while avoiding Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang is not in a hurry, now is a good opportunity for his teammates to confront strong teams.
The score between the two sides has been stalemate, with a point difference of around 15.
It is not easy for the Warriors to open up the score, and it is also difficult for the Thunder to catch up.
At the end of the first half, the score came to 63:50, and the Warriors led by 13 points.
At the last moment, Durant made a three-pointer at the buzzer, otherwise the point difference would be 16 points.
The suspense in the second half was still there, but the Thunder fans knew that Zhou Yang didn't make any effort in the second quarter.
Therefore, there is still no smile on the faces of the Thunder fans. They are worried that Zhou Yang will directly take away the game in the second half.
In the live broadcast room of China Sports Channel, Director Zhang was full of praise for Zhou Yang.
"Zhou Yang is very individual today, he seems to clean up one by one, haha!"
"No, I used to think Zhou Yang was quite gentle, but I didn't expect it to be so exciting, haha!"
"We in Huaxia need all kinds of players. We can't make foreigners feel that we are all humble and low-key."
"That's right, you should be domineering. Today's Zhou Yang made me know him again!"
"In fact, during the World Championships, Zhou Yang did very well. Although he almost lost to the dream team in the end, he had a great influence on the national team."
"I think we Huaxia fans are very lucky. Just after Yao Ming retired, Zhou Yang came to the top, and the upper limit is even higher!"
"To be honest, I'm looking forward to the 12 Olympics, haha, will Zhou Yang bring us more surprises?"
"Not to mention, when Ah Lian and Sun Yue have both reached the peak, Zhou Yang will not be able to get in. That scene... I can't imagine it!"
……
The two commentators talked about the future, and the Chinese fans were so excited that they were so excited.
The second half of the game started, just as the Thunder fans were worried, Zhou Yang broke out again!
Zhou Yang, who played soy sauce in the second quarter, started to attack with the ball in the third quarter.
Facing the double-teaming of Sefolosha and Durant, Zhou Yang first passed the ball to Turkoglu, then bypassed Durant and ran towards the bottom corner.
At the moment when Durant and Sefolosha were chasing after him, Zhou Yang received a pass from Turkoglu.
Now as soon as Zhou Yang gets the ball, the Thunder players get nervous.
Zhou Yang immediately made a shooting action, and Sefolosha jumped up.
But Durant is very smart, he didn't jump, because he has studied Zhou Yang for a long time.
Seeing that Durant was not fooled, Zhou Yang simply continued to break through to the bottom line.
Durant stuck close to Zhou Yang, and at the same time signaled Ibaka to come over to help defend.
Just as he was about to reach the bottom line, Zhou Yang suddenly turned around and threw Durant behind him.
Spin the top!
Durant was shocked, and it was too late to turn around and chase after him.
Fortunately, Ibaka has already pounced.
With the lessons learned in the first quarter, Ibaka did not take off easily, but relied on his height and long arms to cover Zhou Yang tightly.
Just when everyone thought Zhou Yang was helpless, Zhou Yang suddenly stretched the ball behind Ibaka and threw it up!
Ibaka thought that Zhou Yang was about to make a low-handed layup, so he hurriedly turned around to block the shot. Who knew——
The ball actually drew an arc and returned to Zhou Yang's hands!
This style of play is exactly what Iverson played in the All-Star Game back then.
The moment Ibaka turned around, Zhou Yang received a pass from himself and made a jumper, whoosh!
Ibaka was tricked all over the place!
The players on both sides were stunned!
This is an official game, not an All-Star, how dare you?
After scoring the goal, Zhou Yang himself was also very excited, because he didn't think about it in advance, but just had a sudden idea.
The Warriors teammates all rushed over, bumped their chests against Zhou Yang and shouted angrily. Everyone was very excited for Zhou Yang's amazing goal.
There is no doubt that this goal must be among the five best goals of today, and it will even be among the top ten goals of the year!
Zhou Yang led his teammates to play "Brave and Three Crazies"!
After more than 7 minutes in the third quarter, the Warriors' lead came to 21 points.
84: 63!
Brooks sighed...
It seems that as long as Zhou Yang is around, it will be too difficult to turn things around.
The Thunder started to make substitutions, replacing Westbrook with Harden.
Harden came on the court early and added a ball-holding point, and Brooks wanted to try again.
Needless to say, after Harden came up, he played pick-and-rolls for several consecutive rounds, and all of them were successful.
Coupled with the recovery of Durant's touch and consecutive goals, the Thunder played a 9:2 spurt in the second half of the third quarter.
The point difference returned to 14 points.
Thunder fans saw hope of winning again.
At the end of the three quarters, the score came to 72:86.
Brooks also worked hard. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Durant and Harden appeared on the court at the same time, just to close the point difference to within 10 points.
Zhou Yang sat and rested below with a serious expression.
Although he had an amazing performance in the first half, Zhou Yang knew in his heart that the talent of the Thunder team is here, and it is very difficult to win a big victory.
As long as they play well in the second half, the Thunder will definitely catch up, and it will take until the end of the fourth quarter to decide the winner.
Sure enough, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the combination of Durant and Harden had a huge advantage, and they immediately narrowed the point difference to 7 points.
Old Nelson didn't panic, because he knew that Durant's physical strength was average, and he would definitely not be able to play a full fourth quarter.
Even if he wants to play the fourth quarter, his final shooting percentage will drop.
Sure enough, after playing for more than 4 minutes in the fourth quarter, Brooks replaced both Durant and Harden with Westbrook.
Old Nelson immediately replaced the Splash Brothers and other main players on the field, ready to take over the game.
Durant and Harden were very nervous off the court. They were worried that the Warriors would take them away in a wave, so there was no need for them to play.
Unexpectedly, the situation on the court changed suddenly, and Westbrook suddenly found the feeling.
Da Wei Shao not only broke through sharply, but also hit his zombie jumpers frequently.
Although the Warriors can score with Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang doesn't take many shots under the double-team.
Under the leadership of Westbrook, the point difference continued to narrow to 3 points.
Old Nelson was furious, he didn't expect Westbrook to explode!
Zhou Yang was not surprised, Westbrook already had this ability.
The Warriors called a timeout, and Zhou Yang and his teammates high-fived to comfort everyone.
