, the fastest update NBA: the latest chapter of the No. 1 forward!
And the Thunder's three juniors, who were supposed to be the protagonists, did not perform too badly. Kevin Durant had 33 points and 11 rebounds, Westbrook had 29 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, and Yin Baka had 16 points and 11 rebounds.
James Harden didn't play very well. He played 24 minutes as the team's sixth man and only scored 5 points, 2 assists and 2 rebounds.
Also on May 3, the Thunder completed their revenge at home. In the second game of the semifinals, the Thunder defeated the Western Beast Grizzlies 111:102.
Rudy Gayin's season reimbursement has little impact on the Grizzlies' defense, but the impact on the offensive end is still great.
None of them can compete with Durant at the third position. Although Rudy Guyin can't complete the confrontation with Durant, at least they are better than Sam Young and Sean Battier.
After the whole game, although the performance of "Black and White Shuangsha" was not as good as the first burst, it can be called excellent.
Randolph had 15 points and 9 rebounds, Gasol Jr. had 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Mike Conley had 24 points and 8 assists.
But the Thunder's three juniors played even better in this game.
Durant had 26 points and 5 rebounds, and Westbrook had 24 points and 6 assists.
The biggest change is that James Harden, who is the team's sixth man, played 30 minutes and scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists.
It can be said that during the team rotation, Harden withstood the impact of the opponent's main lineup, sprinted for Durant in the fourth quarter, and preserved his physical fitness.
In this game, the Thunder relied entirely on the team's reasonable rotation to defeat the Grizzlies.
Their big score is now 1:1.
The other group of semifinals in the Western Conference is the duel between the defending champion Lakers and the Mavericks.
The duel between the Lakers and the Mavericks is somewhat expected. As the defending champion, the Lakers have been completely suppressed by the Mavericks in both games. They are currently behind by a big score of 0:2, and they are still at the Staples Center, home of the Lakers!
In the first game of the semifinals, the Lakers were at the Staples Center and lost to the Mavericks by only two points 94:96.
The Lakers executed foul tactics at the end, but Kidd made two free throws, giving the Lakers the final chance to kill.
Kobe missed a three-pointer in the last 2.7 seconds, the lore failed, and finally lost to the Mavericks.
But Kobe's last shot also made all the Mavericks sweat.
The almost cooked duck flew off.
Kobe scored 36 points and 5 rebounds, and there was no assist in the game. Except for Kobe, only Gasol scored 15 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, and the team's best sixth man, Lamar O. Dom had 15 points and 12 rebounds.
None of the other players scored in double figures. It is not to blame Kobe for not passing the ball. It is really his teammates who are not good enough and their shooting percentage is extremely low. Artest's shooting percentage is only 12.5%. Passing him is equivalent to a mistake.
;/a>
The remaining team center Andrew Bynum has a shooting percentage of 37.5%. You must know that Andrew is a center and an inside player with a shooting percentage of 37.5%. High probability of scoring.
In the face of the defending champion, the Mavericks did not show mercy. Dirk Nowitzki scored 28 points and 14 rebounds with a large double-double and beat Gasol. He shot 50% from the field and 100% from the free throw line.
In addition to the Germans, Tyson Chandler had 11 points and 9 rebounds, Sean Marion had 10 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds; Jason Terry had 15 points and 4 assists; Peja had 10 points and 2 rebounds.
Five of the Mavericks team scored in double figures, and they played more reasonably and tacitly.
Even so, the Mavericks only narrowly won this game, and they couldn't guard against the craziest man in the West.
In the second game, the Lakers, the defending champions, did not complete their revenge. It was not that they were not strong enough, but that they were not as good as the Mavericks in grasping the details.
81:93, lost to the Dallas Mavericks again at home.
Throughout the game, the Lakers never took the lead once.
Did the Lakers perform poorly in this game?
Kobe had 23 points and 3 assists, center Andrew Bynum had 18 points and 13 rebounds, power forward Gasol had 13 points and 10 rebounds; even Artest, who had a poor shooting percentage in the last game, played online in this game, scoring 11 points and 6 Rebounds and 2 assists.
In terms of team shooting percentage, the two pairs are comparable, the Lakers are 41%, the Mavericks are 42%, and the Lakers are better than the Mavericks in rebounding.
But in the end, the Mavericks took the lead. The reason is the Mavericks' three-pointers and free throws.
The Mavericks team scored 8 three-pointers, the team made 21 free throws, and the team made 81% of their free throws.
The Lakers team scored 2 three-pointers, the team made 20 free throws, and the team made 55% of their free throws.
Sometimes the gap is subtle. When the strength is equal, whoever pays more attention to details and who is more stable will maintain the lead in the duel.
It can only be said that the Lakers' two consecutive championships made them too arrogant. Many times they no longer seriously polish their free throws, but sometimes they can see the whole picture by looking at the details.
The Lakers are in danger!
…
Today's game between the Celtics and the Knicks has attracted much attention.
Because after this game, there will be a very likely second 3:0 in this round of the series!
Why is it the second, because the defending champion Lakers lost to the Dallas Mavericks again 92:98 in the third game against the Mavericks in the semifinals yesterday.
At present, the Mavericks are the first team to get the match point among the semifinal teams, and the defending champion Lakers are only one defeat away from being eliminated this season.
With the Mavericks 3:0 and winning the match point, the media and fans also know that the Mavericks have basically secured the victory in the semifinals. Now the only team that can secure the victory in advance like the Mavericks is the Eastern Conference. New York Knicks.
Therefore, the game between the Knicks and the Celtics has received extensive attention from fans of major media.
Rajon Rondo sent a double-double of 17 points and 12 assists today, but in the eyes of some fans and commentators, Rajon Rondo's performance is not very good.
Because Rajon Rondo's shooting percentage was only 36.5% in the whole game, especially at the critical moment of the fourth quarter, Holiday directly gave up defending Rajon Rondo's shots, only targeting his breakthroughs, and then strengthened the defense against Rajon Rondo. Ray Allen's defense.
Not only that, but Rajon Rondo played a bit alone in this game. The fans of North Shore Garden even saw that "Gentleman Ray" Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo had a quarrel on the court.
The conflict between the two was brought to the table for the first time, but in the end no violent conflict broke out.
The game has reached this level, the entire Celtics are like a powder keg, and they will explode at a little bit.
So far in the semifinals, Ray Allen's performance has not been very good. He has not scored in double figures in any of these three games. Tony Allen has to score the first and Rajon Rondo has the second.
Tony Allen's defense is indeed very good, but the Tigers also played Duncan, so Ray Allen also ran out of space.
However, because of consecutive misses, Rondo, who had conflicts with Ray Allen, no longer believed in Ray Allen's ability, so some opportunities were lost in vain.
In this game, Ray Allen only scored 8 points and 3 rebounds, and the data was dismal.
After two games of adaptation, Cousins ushered in a big explosion in this game, scoring a large double-double with 21 points and 13 rebounds. As the game continued, Cousins' performance became better and better. Excellent, he has gradually adapted to the intensity of the playoffs, and as a rookie, he has grown very rapidly.
It's just that this guy's violent temper has not changed at all. So far, Cousins has averaged about 4.5 fouls per game, and he has always had problems with rough defense.
Of course ~www.mtlnovel.com~ As a rookie, he is still very capable among the 2010 rookies, but as the starting center of a playoff team, he still needs greater improvement.
Garnett and Stoudemire achieved a pair in this game. Neither of them scored very high, and they just scored in double figures.
Pierce was not in a very good state in this game. He did not recover the state of the previous game and only scored 18 points and 6 rebounds.
But Lian Dao was as stable as ever. In this game, Lian Dao once again scored a triple-double of 30 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
Lian Dao's triple-double performance also became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Lian Dao didn't score that explosively today, but the Knicks played a team offense, so after the whole game, the Knicks' offense was not only smooth, but also very easy.
Especially in the fourth quarter, under Rondo's offense, the Celtics hit the iron continuously, while the Knicks scored methodically, which opened the score between the two teams instantly.
