NBA: No. 1 Forward Chapter 600

"Tony, you guard Kevin Durant in the third quarter. You don't need to complete a steal or block a shot."

"Just keep him in the most uncomfortable posture every time he breaks through, every shot, and constantly consume his physical energy. How about it? Are you confident?"

D'Antoni looked at Tony Allen and asked.

"No problem, coach!"

Tony Allen nodded solemnly, and answered very simply.

Tony Allen will always be like this. He will take the task assigned to him by the coach and do the best within his ability.

As long as he said yes, everyone seemed to feel that Tony Allen would be able to do it.

"sickle, in the third quarter, you still exploded as before, tearing apart the opponent's defense through your performance, and preparing for the next offensive lineup!"

"We will completely open the score in the third quarter and establish an absolute advantage!"

"sickle, are you healthy?"

D'Antoni looked at Lian Dao.

Lian Dao shook his head, and said confidently: "Don't worry, in the first half, I just warmed up!"

Everyone in the Knicks looked at Lian Dao with admiration, and even Gallinari gave Lian Dao a thumbs up.

Every player was deeply touched by the intensity of the first half; everyone's physical energy consumption was not small.

As the core of the team, Lian Dao can only consume more energy than them.

However, speaking from Lian Dao's mouth was just a warm-up.

In terms of physical fitness, they can see the gap with super players.

Looking at the admiring eyes of a group of people, although Lian Dao's expression didn't change, he felt secretly happy in his heart.

Sure enough, it's the most enjoyable to show up in front of people!

The second half began soon, and players from both sides began to enter the field one after another.

The Knicks put out an all-defensive lineup, which didn't surprise the Thunder.

When playing against the Heat before, the Knicks put up this lineup.

Lei Ting has researched this for a long time, so he is no stranger to it.

"The two teams played very fiercely in the first half, and the Knicks are currently only leading the Thunder by 5 points."

"In the second half, the Knicks set up an all-defensive lineup against the Heat from the beginning. I don't know if the Thunder have any countermeasures for this!"

The Thunder attacked first in the second half.

Durant stared at Lian Dao and asked Westbrook for the ball just after halftime.

Westbrook did not hesitate and handed the ball to Durant.

However, as soon as Durant held the ball, he found that it was not Lian Dao who was defending him, but Tony Allen.

Durant was a little surprised, but he didn't take it seriously.

Durant doesn't know much about Tony Allen yet.

After all, Tony Allen didn't go to the Grizzlies like in history, so he didn't fight often.

Durant only knows that this is a player who was selected to the defensive second team and the defense is not bad.

However, even DPOY's Lian Dao didn't limit him in the first half. Durant didn't think Tony Allen's defense would be better than Lian Dao's.

Foot on the 3-point line, two big dribbles...

As soon as the second half came up, Durant chose to dribble and break through.

At this time, Tony Allen leaned forward without hesitation, entangled Durant tightly, blocking all of Durant's breakthrough routes.

However, Durant was still not in a hurry. He dribbled twice and turned around, and then he made a signature mid-range fadeaway jumper.

Tony Allen posted it instantly, leaping high to block Durant's shooting sight, giving Durant a strong sense of oppression.

Durant's face suddenly changed in the air, and his posture was very uncomfortable.

"Rebound!"

After Durant took the shot, he roared and rushed towards the basket.

"when!"

The basketball hits the hoop.

Durant's first shot in the second half ended with a strike.

But it's a long rebound, and it's headed right toward Durant.

This rebound can be regarded as easy for Durant.

This made him secretly relieved, and was about to jump up to receive the rebound.

Unexpectedly, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him. After pushing himself away, he hugged the ball forcefully into his arms with his super long wingspan.

It's Lian Dao!

He grabbed the rebound before Durant.

Immediately, he handed the ball to Holiday, who was about to play.

However, Westbrook's reaction was also very quick, keeping up with Holiday, and constantly engaging in physical confrontation, slowing down Holiday's speed.

Holiday was unmoved, and still broke through to the basket against Westbrook.

Seeing this, Westbrook raised his arms above him. As long as Holiday dared to make a layup, Westbrook was waiting to give Holiday a big hat.

Holiday glanced back, then stopped suddenly at the basket and faked a layup.

Westbrook jumped up to interfere in an instant, but then found that Holiday had no ball in his hand.

Immediately, looking back...

A big Arabic numeral 1 strikes from far to near.

At this time, Lian Dao cut to the basket without the ball, caught Holiday's pass in the air, immediately took off, and scored with a one-armed dunk!

"Boom!"

Belonging to the Knicks fast break defensive counterattack!

The atmosphere at Madison Garden instantly rose, and all the fans cheered.

Defensive counterattack dunks are the most exciting thing for watching fans.

The Knicks extended their lead to 7 points.

At the same time, the already high-spirited generals of the Knicks became even more imposing.

Back on the defensive end, they worked a lot harder than before.

Scott Brooks frowned, and Knicks seemed to be thinking about it.

The Thunder attacked again, this time Westbrook no longer chose to pass the ball to Durant, he chose to go it alone.

It is still the previous breakthrough with the ball, and Holiday has long been prepared for it.

Take a step back to leave space for subsequent lateral movement containment.

However, what Holiday did not expect was that Westbrook did not choose to break through this time.

After a feint, he returned to the three-point line again, but Holiday had no time to react, and fell behind overall by a beat.

As a result, Westbrook got an excellent shooting opportunity directly outside the three-point line.

If this is placed in the first few games of the last round, even if Westbrook gets a chance, there is a high probability that he will not be able to make a shot.

But in the last two games of the last round, Westbrook played confidently, and he also continued his enthusiasm to the finals.

Westbrook's three-pointer went into the net hollow.

The Thunder fought back on the offensive end.

Brooks frowned suddenly, as long as Westbrook can open up, he will share Durant's pressure on the offensive end.

Now only Harden is left. If Harden can also fire, the game will officially enter the rhythm of the Thunder.

So what if the state of Lian Dao is hot? !

Two fists are hard to beat with four hands, as long as Durant and the three of them can maintain the output of firepower, the situation can still be controlled by the Thunder.

After that, Lian Dao attacked, and as soon as he broke through with the ball, the Thunder made a pincer attack.

Breaking through the pincer attack of Sefolosha and Durant, and then rushing to the basket, the Thunder quickly shrank.

Facing the defense of Perkins and Ibaka, Lian Dao threw the ball to the bottom corner.

Millsap's open corner three-point opportunity!

shot!

"when!"

Open shot missed.

Lian Dao frowned, Millsap's hand feel might be problematic.

Millsap himself was also a little disappointed. He flicked his right hand that had just shot, trying to restore his touch in this way.

Perkins blocked Hassan Whiteside, and then Ibaka took off the rebound and handed it to Westbrook.

Westbrook still chose to attack independently this time.

With the experience of the last ball, this time Holiday did not dare to put Westbrook at such a large distance.

But Westbrook directly chose to break through Holiday as soon as he came up.

Holiday also hurriedly entangled to fight, and Holiday remained focused on the defensive end.

However, Westbrook's calf-like body is indeed strong.

Breaking through to the inside against Holiday, after attracting the defense, he distributed the ball to James Harden who was ambushing in the bottom corner.

Harden also lived up to Westbrook's expectations.

His steady three-pointer hit, helping the Thunder narrow the point difference to 1 point.

Brookston smiled~www.mtlnovel.com~ Harden also fired, which represented that the game had officially entered the rhythm of the Thunder.

"It seems that the Thunder are not afraid of the Knicks' defensive tactics at all. Under the Knicks' high-intensity defense, they still play with ease!"

O'Neill looked at the Thunder team who wanted to make a move on the field and said.

"I said long ago that the Thunder team is not weak, and the fighting power of the Thunder's three young masters cannot be underestimated!"

Kenny Smith smiled smugly.

After the third quarter, the Knicks made consecutive mistakes.

As one of the teams with the fewest turnovers per game in the league, the performance of the Knicks in the third quarter was obviously not in line with expectations.

But fortunately, Lian Dao can always stop the loss in time at the hurdle where the Thunder is about to widen the point difference.

His goals at several critical moments have allowed the Knicks to reverse the situation again.

But the difficult key ball undoubtedly accelerated the consumption of Lian Dao.

After all, many goals were scored by Lian Dao holding the ball and fighting forcibly into the overcrowded penalty area.

Every time he scores a goal, he has to pay a lot of physical energy.
