Everyone on the Thunder team seemed to be bursting with adrenaline. Under the leadership of Durant and Westbrook, the lead expanded to 11 points at the end of the third quarter.
68:79, Killing crazy!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Trail Blazers took the lead.
Lillard received Wang Zelin's serve and slowly advanced forward. Batum first ran to the 45-degree three-point line on the right side of the frontcourt to open up space. Aldridge was in the middle distance on the left, and Matthews squatted on the left.
bottom corner.
After halftime, Wang Zelin took his position on the right side of the basket. Lillard saw Westbrook looking at him seriously, concentrating on guarding the edge of the three-point line.
The showdown between No. 0 and No. 0!
Westbrook's body is much stronger than Lillard's, and the physical confrontation is very strong. Fortunately, the opponent's defensive habits are average, and Lillard easily breaks into the mid-range... Proving once again that the defense of the two is evenly matched.
Westbrook was not discouraged and tried to catch up. At this time, Lillard suddenly accelerated to the right and changed direction, and Westbrook overran.
Continuing to take two steps forward, Lillard came to the right side of the three-second zone. Ibaka quickly defended and guarded against Lillard's close throw.
Lillard didn't seem to notice the height difference between the two of them. He walked up to the man and threw the ball...
It seems to be high!
Ibaka didn't have time to think too much. Wang Zelin came from the right baseline, jumped high and smashed the ball into the basket!
70:79!
The score difference narrowed to single digits!
During the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook received the serve and advanced quickly to catch him off guard, but the entire Trail Blazers retreated quickly and ended up falling into a positional contest.
"Damien, right? This should be our fourth match. You are a very good young man, but..." Westbrook dribbled the ball outside the three-point line and said to Lillard: "You
You can’t guard against me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Westbrook paused and feinted, then changed hands and broke through with a fake move, entered the penalty area, faced Wang Zelin's defense and dunked the ball into the basket.
"Thunder player Westbrook has triggered the purple diamond talent skill ~ Dunk King: Use the body to forcefully collide and dunk...
Thunder player Westbrook has triggered a gold-level talent skill ~ Terminator: His movements are less likely to deform when making layups or dunks...
Thunder player Westbrook has triggered a gold-level talent skill ~ Breakthrough Elite: When triggering dribbling acceleration within the three-point line in the offensive half..."
The sudden triggering of three skills immediately stunned Wang Zelin... They are all talents that are conducive to attacking the basket!
Beep~
The referee's whistle blows and there will be an additional penalty.
"Oh! Violent dunk! Come and eat the performance of the turtle! Wang Zelin was completely reduced to the background under his dunk!"
Isaiah Thomas screamed.
"Russell is like a smaller version of LeBron, and his mid-range ability is simply unmatched!"
Reggie Miller couldn't help but praise.
"Rookie, maybe you can become stronger in the future, but right now... we are the strongest!"
Westbrook landed and glanced at Wang Zelin, who still had his hands raised high. There was a hint of recognition and appreciation in his eyes, but more importantly, there was a burning desire to fight.
What about the strongest rookie?
Correct!
After being dunked by Westbrook, Wang Zelin looked cold and silently walked to the sideline of the paint area, waiting for the free throw.
91.58 million followers!
Just wait, I will become stronger soon, and it is best to see you in the playoffs... I will definitely not let you and the Thunder go.
"hehe."
After discovering Wang Zelin's clenched right fist, Westbrook smiled: It seems that this rookie is not without anger.
"Whoosh!"
Extra penalty hit.
The two teams are already 12 points apart.
During this period, Westbrook's shooting ability was still very good, not as good as later, especially his free throw shooting percentage. Except for the second year of his career, which was only 78%, it remained above 80% in the other four years. In the playoffs,
He was even more merciless and never lowered 80%.
Of course, compared to the "West Emperor" who will be the core of the 75ers' future reconstruction, under his background, Westbrook can be called a shooter.
frontcourt.
As soon as Lillard passed Westbrook, Saposovlosa immediately chased him. The Thunder players knew that the second brother would definitely be unable to guard against him, so they prepared to wipe his ass in advance.
Seeing the incoming person, Lillard took the initiative to slow down, grabbed the two of them, and passed the ball to Matthews, who cut inside from the left corner.
After catching the ball, Matthews took off with two steps and was about to dunk...
Snapped!
The Thunder's health insurance card came and the ball was nailed to the backboard.
This is a super shot-blocking maniac who broke through 3 blocks in two consecutive seasons.
"Beautiful! Serge..."
Westbrook shouted, and after Ibaka took off the second time to get the rebound, he immediately passed it to the former.
"Bang!"
Successful one-stop attack in the backcourt!
Lillard's speed of 94 is already fast enough, but I didn't expect Westbrook to be even better, with a speed of 96.
Heavenly Dynasty.
Director Ma and Teacher Yu Jia are explaining the game.
"Alas, the Trail Blazers are far away. It's just a pity, king. They played so well tonight and still have to lose." Yu Jia sighed.
"If nothing else happens, the Trail Blazers will lose their penultimate home game of the season by 14 points! I think it will be difficult to get back!" Ma said.
"For King's fans, the greatest luck in misfortune may be his data. Looking at 10 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block in 22 minutes of playing time, under the performance of the Trail Blazers' outside players, under normal circumstances, King's rebounding data is
There are a lot more than before, which is very beneficial to his competition for the rebounding title."
"Yes, there is still half a quarter left. As long as Zelin works harder, he should be able to get...ahem, he can get 15 rebounds..."
Back to the rose garden.
With 51 seconds left before the end of the game, the Trail Blazers beat the Thunder 91:102. The two teams always maintained a point difference of about 10 points, and the Trail Blazers no longer had a chance to counterattack.

The coach called a timeout.
Unless a miracle of 35 seconds and 13 minutes can be performed, this game should be lost.
"Everyone just try your best, don't be frustrated, go back and train well, and strive to become stronger."
Seeing the players sitting silently, Tristo shook his head and immediately announced that he would give up the game.
When the final whistle sounded, the score was fixed at 94:106. The Thunder defeated the Trail Blazers away from home with a 12-point difference.
Wang Zelin played for 31 minutes and made 8 of 13 shots, including 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 21 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks, all with high efficiency.
But...still lost!
Wang Zelin felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart. When the two teams were performing normally, no one could guard the other. In the end, the Blazers still lost.
Although Lillard made 7 of 17 shots and Matthews made 3 of 10, these are not enough excuses.
Durant's 36 points and 9 rebounds, Westbrook's 32 points, 11 assists and 7 rebounds, a near triple-double, the Thunder's sixth man on the bench, Kevin Martin's 22 points and 3 assists...these are the greatest strengths of the Trail Blazers.
reason.
There's no way to prevent it!
Come on, now I can only watch helplessly as Durant and Westbrook show off on their own turf.
"Let's go back and have a good rest! We have to play against the Nuggets in two days!"
Wang Zelin patted Lillard on the shoulder, turned and walked to the locker room.
"Next time, I won't lose again!"
Lillard stared at the back of Thunder No. 0 for a long time.
An hour passed.
Wang Zelin finished his interviews one after another and was about to walk out of the arena when he suddenly felt someone pat his back, followed by a woman's voice.
"Hey!"
Wang Zelin turned around and looked stunned for a moment.
What came into view was an extremely familiar pretty face.
Scarlett Johansson!
"Why are you here?"
Wang Zelin asked doubtfully, and then looked outside the door nervously... Fortunately, Reina was not there.
Scarlett smiled and said: "Why are you nervous? Oh, I know, are you worried about your girlfriend..."
"No! How is that possible?"
Someone is decisive.
"Yeah," Scarlett stepped forward and couldn't help but poke Wang Zelin's abdominal muscles with her fingers, her eyes sparkling: "Are you free? Let's go to the bar for a drink..."
Are you joking?
I am a married man.
How could I possibly do such a thing?
Wang Zelin shook his head silently: "You decide the location!"
…
The next day.
A man howled in a presidential suite at the Portland Hotel.
“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck…
It’s over!
How could I forget that?"
After the exhausted Scarlett was woken up, she looked up and saw Wang Zelin's sculpture-like figure... Not to mention, it was quite hard.
"What's wrong, Wang, what happened?"
Seeing Wang Zelin's nervous expression, Scarlett Haili thought it was an affair between the two of them...ah, their friendship was discovered.
Wang Zelin lowered his head and saw white waves, but at this time he no longer had the desire to do morning exercises. He said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "No! I just suddenly realized that I had forgotten something important."
"whats the matter?"
Hearing what Wang Zelin said, Scarlett suddenly became excited.
"You do not understand."
Wang Zelin shook his head. After waking up, a series of memories suddenly poured into his mind like a slide show.
April 13, 2013, a day that 6 billion people never want to go back to.
In a game on this day, the Lakers suddenly lost their footing during an offense against No. 24 and fell to the ground.
In the eyes of Lakers fans around the world at the time, it was just an ordinary slip and fall, but in Wang Zelin's mind, it was like a thunder, making him instantly sleepless.
There is a saying: Wang Zelin was never a Lakers fan in his previous life, let alone the so-called Kermit. He was just an ordinary passerby basketball fan.
If I really had to sum it up in one sentence, it would be "He will look after whoever is strong, and he will follow whoever wins!"
For this reason, he was ridiculed for a long time by a roommate who was a Thunder fan.
But Wang Zelin doesn't care. In his opinion, it doesn't matter which team wins or loses. What he wants to see is just exciting games one after another.
After traveling through time and experiencing Kobe Bryant at his peak for the first time as a competitive opponent on the same stage, Wang Zelin still did not fall in love with the Black Mamba.
But the difference is that Wang Zelin has more respect in his heart.
The first thing he saw was such a stubborn old guy! As if victory was everything...
Did that guy forget that he is almost 35 years old?
In Wang Zelin's view, Kobe is an out-and-out "paranoid". In terms of the level of paranoia, he may not even be able to compare with Jordan.
In the history of the NBA, few people dared to publicly speak out, saying that they could defeat Jordan, or even beat Jordan...except Kobe.
What is even more unbelievable is that Kobe said this when he was preparing to participate in the draft at the age of 17 or 8, just like a brat who just started playing basketball, saying that he would definitely be able to defeat the "little giant" Yao Ming in the future.
That’s outrageous!
Because whoever dares to say this must be responsible for his words. If it does not come true, people will 100% laugh at him crazily.
Of course, this also has an advantage, that is, it can turn pressure into motivation, press yourself all the time, and force yourself to move forward.
If you have spoken big words but failed to live up to them in the future, the pressure from the outside world will be terrifying just thinking about it.
As he competed again and again, Wang Zelin finally understood that sentence ~ "There are as many people who like Kobe as there are people who hate him!"
Now Wang Zelin has to admit that he seems to have fallen in love with that bigot.
Because after the last game in the CBA, he did similar stupid things, put down his bold words, and went crazy.
But now, he just wants to know whether history is still going on... Is that guy injured?
