In the third game, this is a match point.
Whoever wins the third game means that this has an advantage. In this case, it will be very easy to play next.
As soon as the game started, the Kings went on the offensive.
The core of the offense is Qin Yang.
After the Kings relied on Qin Yang to take the lead in the last game, Coach Van Gundy also felt relieved and favored Qin Yang tactically.
The rest of the Kings made a lot of shots, but Qin Yang was the only core of the team.
On the first ball, Darko screened, Cousins screened, and Ray Allen screened. After the three of them screened, Qin Yang made a circle and returned to the three-point line to shoot.
Whoosh!
The basketball goes into the frame.
Durant and Sefoloza, who defended Qin Yang, were both blinded.
Covering three times in a row, this tactic is a bit too shameless.
Although they had prepared before the game, the Thunder were still beaten a bit.
The Thunder attacked, Russell Westbrook attacked directly, hit the basket with a shot, the rebound was caught by Cousins, Cousins passed the ball, and Qin Yang held the ball for half court.
This time, after halftime, Qin Yang directly shot from a distance of one step beyond the three-point line.
Super long-range three-pointer.
Sefolosha's face darkened even more.
This season, the Kings played more team tactics, so Qin Yang didn't take many shots.Super long-range three-pointers are rarely shot.
But in this match, Qin Yang completely let go.
Don't be cowardly, it's a wave!
Qin Yang wouldn't dare if every game was like this, and he would probably cheat his teammates. Under normal circumstances, when a player takes too many shots, his hand feeling will gradually deteriorate, and it is impossible to explode frequently in more than ten consecutive games.
Taking too many shots is cheating teammates.
But this season, Qin Yang has held back for a whole year.
Now that the team is behind, Qin Yang really let go of the game.
The Thunder attacked, and Kevin Durant finally took the ball to attack. This ball, using his height advantage, made an emergency stop after breaking through.
Rudy Gay is very tenacious defensively, but Durant still relies on his height advantage to throw the ball steadily.
After the ball was scored, Durant quickly returned to defense without saying a word.
Qin Yang patted Rudy Gay and said in a low voice: "Good defense!"
The Kings attacked, Sefolosha defended again, Qin Yang dribbled the ball behind his back, the rhythm was very slow, Sefolosha did not dare to steal, and carefully matched up.
But Qin Yang accelerated directly, and Sefolosha quickly retreated.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Yang retreated, pretending to take a step back, and Sefolosha stepped forward, Qin Yang accelerated again and easily broke through.
Qin Yang is better at this kind of rhythm change this season.
This method of using rhythm was taught by James Harden to Qin Yang. Qin Yang mainly learned this technique in the virtual training room this season.
After using it now, Sefolosha is very helpless.
If someone who can't shoot uses this trick, it is purely to make himself uncomfortable, but if someone who shoots very well uses it, it will be difficult to defend.
Sefolosha was a little slower, and Qin Yang shot directly.
The reaction was too fast, Qin Yang made a breakthrough with a time difference.
After breaking through, Qin Yang was double-teamed in an instant. Kevin Durant and Ibaka double-teamed Qin Yang from both sides, vowing not to give Qin Yang an easy chance to score.
Qin Yang took it back after pretending to make a shot, and passed the ball to Rudy Gay with a ground hit.
Rudy Gay jumped straight up and scored an easy dunk.
Although Qin Yang attacked wildly, he didn't pass the ball, so the Thunder team's idea of double-teaming would definitely not work.
The game continues.
The difference between the two sides quickly widened.
The Kings played more simply and decisively. Not to mention Qin Yang's contribution on the offensive end, he also worked hard on the defensive end.
Sefolosha succeeded in taking the blame.
In the first game, Sefolosha was 6 of 5 when he encountered an open opportunity on the outside, which directly became the X factor and defeated the Kings.
But in this game, Sefolosha scored 6 of 2 and failed to score from the outside line again and again, which made the Thunder cry.
Kevin Durant isn't very efficient either.
In the first two games, Kevin Durant's efficiency value was extremely high, and the statistics were simply abnormal, even faintly suppressing Qin Yang.
But in this game, Durant's shortcomings were also exposed.
When the shooting touch is not good, Durant is not omnipotent. He has repeatedly shot from outside and gave the Kings a chance.
Westbrook hit the basket again and again and performed well.
That's because the Kings focused on Durant, and Westbrook was not the worst opponent.
In the 8 minutes of the first quarter, Qin Yang scored 8 points and 3 assists.
It was not until the third quarter that Qin Yang played again.
During the substitute time, the Kings did not perform badly. Ray Allen cooperated very well with Darko in this game. Darko scored consecutively in the second quarter, suppressing the Thunder.
In the third quarter, Qin Yang and David West played a pick-and-roll, attacking sharply.
Once in the Hornets, the pick-and-roll cooperation of David West and Chris Paul shocked the league. It was hailed as the first inside and outside pick-and-roll combination in the league. The pick-and-roll cooperation of Deron and Boozer was similar to the two.
But in the third quarter, the partner of Qin Yang and West was more threatening.
Qin Yang is not a person who particularly likes to hold the ball, and Chris Paul is different.
After West screened, Qin Yang broke through, reached the basket, passed the ball directly to West, and then screened for West himself.
West as the core of the pick-and-roll tactics.
This tactical change made it difficult for the Thunder to defend. West passed the ball very well, and Qin Yang easily slipped to the bottom line and scored.
Both can shoot, both can pass, and both can finish offenses.
This kind of pick-and-roll coordination is invincible.
In the third quarter, David West had 14 points and 4 assists, and Qin Yang had 9 points and 6 assists, which directly stunned the Thunder.
Kenkie Smith:
"I think this is the part where Bruce and David will become a classic after the game, because there has never been a pick-and-roll cooperation between the inside and outside so smoothly. If there is, it is Malone and Stockton."
The league knows about the Jazz's pick-and-roll, so there's no need to say more.
Kenny Smith's statement is the best compliment to Qin Yang and David West.
Charles Barkley praised Qin Yang very much:
"There are many point guards in NBA history, but I have to say that Bruce Chin is definitely the best one. If I play with him, I think I can get at least three rings."
As one of the most powerful power forwards in NBA history, Barkley has nothing to do with his life, which is a tragedy.
But he said that together with Qin Yang, he could win at least three championships.
Qin Yang couldn't refuse this tainted milk.
No way, the performances of Qin Yang and David West in this section were really shocking, passing and cooperating time after time.
In a pick-and-roll attack, the two can pick and roll three or four times, pass it back and forth, and finally hit it easily.
The Thunder's defense was completely played by the two.
There is no resistance.
After being teased by Qin Yang and West's performance in the third quarter, the Thunder team lost momentum. Except for Westbrook who still kept attacking the inside line, fouls and iron strikes, the rest of the team was not in a good state.
The third game came to an embarrassingly abrupt end.
